163: Chapter 163 Junior, you're wrong!

The process of the premiere was very... boring.

Yes, boring.

This level of boredom made Lin Chuyan wonder for a moment what the point of a "premiere" even was.

Director Liu Zhi, Zhao Jinpeng, Zhang Wentang, Actress Xin Ya, Chen Ke, Pei Li, Meng Xinle... basically everyone was there, along with a host on the side.

In every hall they entered, the audience would cheer, and then everyone would greet the crowd under the host's introduction.

Immediately after, the host would start asking each person questions, which might be about interesting things on set or their understanding of the Characters.

Then, there would be comments from invited friends in the industry, and this part was just listening to them praise how good the movie was.

Next was the audience Q&A session, where most of them were invited plants, and basically, the questions were quite easy to answer.

Finally, everyone would take a big group photo.

Done.

Lin Chuyan repeated this process many times from afternoon until evening...

The key was that he hadn't even watched the movie, so he was just answering purely based on improvisation, which really tested his memory; if he was suddenly asked about the content of the movie, sometimes he had to rely on guessing...

However, no matter how boring it was, the "premiere" would likely continue to exist for a long time.

As one of the leads, Lin Chuyan was naturally asked quite a few questions.

The key was that the audience were plants, but Lin Chuyan was not...

Q: "I would like to ask Lin Chuyan, what considerations led you to play such a villainous role?"

A: "I was quite short of money at that time, and I wasn't in a position to pick roles. To be honest, I was just glad to have something to act in. I'm grateful for my senior's recommendation, and I'm also grateful that the director was willing to give me a chance."

Q: "I would like to ask Lin Chuyan, as an outstanding Singer and actor, do you have any advice for young people today?"

A: "No, I am a young person myself, and I don't like listening to advice."

The host on the side was panicking. Damn, this Lin Chuyan is truly bizarre; isn't there a single question he can answer with a normal person's thought process?

Originally, the goal was to guard against audience questions, but after this day, they spent the whole time guarding against his answers.

The reputation of the premiere came out very quickly. To be honest, the movie wasn't filmed very well, and the ending was controversial—the male lead chased the killer for so long, only for the villain to survive while the male lead died?

Damn, what kind of thing is this? No good deed goes unpunished, right?

But many people thought about it again and realized, it was actually quite realistic?

Also, Lin Chuyan seems to have something going for him.

You have to know, this kid's previous image was still Prince Xiao Ran, and this one? Is the contrast really that big?

The first wave of people watching the premiere were actually mostly industry insiders. Whether the acting is good or not can be seen at a glance.

Lin Chuyan's acting had actually already been verified in "drama", but for a big-screen movie, it was impossible not to think of his "hunting blue star".

And the result? This kid played a criminal? And played it so well?

How should I put it, it didn't look like he was acting...

Also, that Su He standing on the side—these two have issues!

Look, these two seem to have a very good relationship; I suggest a strict investigation!

Consequently, with the support of social hot topics and Lin Chuyan's traffic, "the hovering blade", which didn't have a very good reputation, went viral just like that.

#Lin Chuyan plays villain#

Before Mosquito Bro saw this trending topic, he had actually already bought the tickets.

Yes, he bought tickets for the preview, two of them, for him and Junior, for today.

Rejoice, Junior finally broke up with her boyfriend recently!

Thanks to Lin Chuyan, he and Junior had a common topic again, and he even managed to get a date because of it—this was his first time watching a movie with Junior.

Yes, Mosquito Bro seized the opportunity and took the initiative to suggest watching Lin Chuyan's movie to relax, and Junior agreed!

Junior: "Mosquito, it is said that Lin Chuyan plays a bad guy in it."

Mosquito Bro: "Hmm, yes, I don't know how he played it. Looking at "hunting blue star", I'm not very optimistic."

Junior: "How could that be? He acted very well in "drama"! As his fans, we must believe in him!"

Mosquito Bro: "...You are right."

No matter, just endure it for now, that's not important.

What is most important right now? Of course, it's buying a bucket of popcorn! Maybe there will be a chance to touch Junior's little hand; Mosquito Bro still understands this much.

Soon, the movie started.

The movie began with the daily life of Li Changfeng, played by Zhao Jinpeng, and his daughter; the two were bickering, and everything seemed calm.

Only, everyone knew this calm life would soon be broken, so while watching this part, the audience's heartstrings were actually taut.

Sure enough, the camera cut, and a rainy night suddenly arrived.

Lin Chuyan appeared.

A few teenagers in a van seemed to be discussing something?

Mosquito Bro's eyes were fixed on Lin Chuyan.

This is? White hair? And wearing an ear stud?

Just as Mosquito Bro wanted to complain, Junior suddenly leaned her body towards his side: "Mosquito, Lin Chuyan is so handsome."

Junior's voice was small, sounding very gentle, and it was also a bit hot.

"...Hmm, he is very handsome."

Damn, what am I complaining about? Thank Lin Chuyan's white hair look!

Only, what is Lin Chuyan doing?

The next shot, Li Changfeng's daughter wearing a white dress, returning home alone in the rainy night, and several people were also on the move.

They were tailing her.

The next shot, the girl in the white dress had already been stuffed into the van by several people and taken back to their house.

Immediately after, the few people led by Lin Chuyan were already committing a crime.

What the f***???

Mosquito Bro was stunned. He knew Lin Chuyan would play a villain, he knew he would break through his image, but this look in his eyes, these actions—this was completely two different people from Prince Xiao Ran. Where did that boy who deeply loved Character go?

This... scumbag! No, this is a total piece of trash!

However, this acting... does this mean something? It means "drama" wasn't just a fluke.

Mosquito Bro was still a reasonable person.

He turned his head to look at Junior; the other party seemed a bit scared?

The plot continued to develop, the girl died, and the father, Li Changfeng, started his path of revenge after being sad and heartbroken.

The Character played by Su He was quickly taken out by Li Changfeng. Just when Mosquito Bro thought Lin Chuyan would also be brought to justice, this piece of trash actually had an improper relationship with another woman?

Who is this girl? She seems a bit familiar? Mosquito Bro tried hard to recall... He remembered, Douyin star Pei Li, who had been rumored to be with Lin Chuyan.

What kind of plot is this? It seems the Character played by Pei Li has a bit of Stockholm syndrome? She was abused and still kept liking Lin Chuyan? F***, on what grounds? Just because he has white hair?

The most outrageous part is that Lin Chuyan even had a look of disdain and treated this beauty very badly.

Damn it, just because he's handsome, he can do whatever he wants, right?

The movie gradually came to an end.

During the standoff, Lin Chuyan knelt on the ground and begged Li Changfeng for mercy. Mosquito Bro was shocked again: Does this guy not care about his image? Crying so ugly? Tears and snot were all over his face? What the f***? Aren't you a heartthrob?

What made Mosquito Bro feel even more ridiculous was yet to come.

Two gunshots rang out, and Li Changfeng fell down and died. Lin Chuyan... actually didn't die?

Is this reasonable? Why not let Li Changfeng shoot this bastard to death?!

The very end was the scene where Xie Yu, played by Lin Chuyan, was being judged.

The longest makeup Lin Chuyan had ever worn appeared—his right face was still exquisitely beautiful, while his left face was disfigured by a gunshot wound, his eyeball was removed, and the entire area from his eye to his ear was covered in burn marks. The ear stud on his left ear was gone, and he was even missing a whole earlobe.

Half angel, half devil.

At this moment, the Character's image was concretized on Lin Chuyan's face—some people look like angels on the outside, but hide demons in their hearts.

The film ended there.

The ending song "Youth is Innocent" began to play.

"I see, in the school corridor, insults and shoves, kneeling humbly in helpless panic."

"I hear, on the street at night, the sound of engines, laughter and chatter, rampant and perverse."

"I see, an old man pushed down in a cheap room, the murderer sleeping soundly at the scene."

"I see, a girl with heavy makeup, a streetwalker, taking promiscuity as a role model."

"Some say, why make such a fuss, they are just kids, who hasn't been young and frivolous?"

"Some say, so many people were bullied, why only you, you should acknowledge the sadness as a disguise."

"Some say, standing from the victim's perspective is not rational enough, so ignorance is forgiven."

"Perhaps people are born to be evil, easily indulging in joy and anger, lenient to oneself and harsh to others."

"But people are born to be taught with virtue, binding animal nature and engraving morality, outlining stability with every stroke."

"I have seen good and evil, rights and wrongs. I cannot see the cause and effect, blindly commenting on right and wrong."

"Adults say, born with a perverse appearance, so boldly assume and reserve a prison cell for him."

"Adults say, he finally went to the execution hall, and the old past finally found a target for litigation."

"The light that should have been happy, gradually sinks into despair."

Mosquito Bro didn't know what else to say. He couldn't help but recall when he watched "hunting blue star" back in the day; his impression was that Lin Chuyan had zero acting skills...

But now, he was even willing to ruin his image for the sake of acting!

This is the professionalism a real actor should have... and it just appeared in Lin Chuyan?

Really, his opinion has changed a bit...

When leaving the theater, naturally, Mosquito Bro and Junior started talking about the movie.

Junior: "Mosquito, why did Lin Chuyan want to play such a villain, and also, he cried so ugly..."

Hmm? That's not right, is it?

Mosquito Bro: "No, no, you can't look at it that way. You have to see Lin Chuyan's acting. Playing a villain is actually nothing, as long as it's played well; he actually broke through quite a bit with this role. Moreover, actually, crying ugly is not a flaw either. Being willing to ruin his image shows that he is a true actor."

On the way home, Mosquito Bro couldn't help but correct Junior's thoughts thoroughly. Fortunately, Junior was also reasonable, and thanks to his efforts, she realized her mistake.

Very good, Mosquito Bro was very gratified: That's right, as fans, we have to keep an eye on the artist and not let him go astray, but we also can't wrong a person!
