165: Chapter 165 Summer Vacation and Summer Movie Season

Lin Chuyan really hadn't expected that the first girl he brought home wouldn't be Ruan Xingyu, but Xia Zhi.

Su Lanxin was also taken aback. She found an opportunity to stare at Lin Chuyan and began to whisper a warning: "I've heard that many artists mess around with their assistants. You brat better not get any funny ideas, or I'll have your father break your legs!"

"I remember it was always you who hit me when I was a kid; Dad doesn't hit me..."

"...Don't change the subject. Did you understand what I said? Since you have a girlfriend, you must treat her with complete devotion."

Lin Chuyan stopped joking and quickly stated his position: "Of course! Since she's willing to be with me, and your son isn't stupid, why wouldn't I treat her well? How could I possibly do anything to let her down? Also, Xia Zhi doesn't like men either, so you can rest easy..."

The older generation still didn't quite understand these things, but after Lin Chuyan said that, she felt relieved no matter how worried she had been. It was just that when she saw Xia Zhi again, she inexplicably felt that, well, the girl was pretty, but it did seem that she was more masculine than her own son...

Since he had finally made it back, Lin Chuyan didn't let his father cook; instead, he ushered the four of them out to a restaurant for a meal. The movie tickets were already bought, and it would be perfect to go watch the movie right after dinner.

He had a lot of fans now, so it was no longer the time when he could just show his face in public whenever he wanted. Although he didn't mind, since he was with his parents, he consciously put on his hat and sunglasses.

Also, before watching the movie, some things needed to be made clear.

Just before the start, Lin Chuyan sat in the theater chair: "So, in this movie, I'm the villain, the really evil kind. You two better prepare yourselves mentally while watching it."

"Got it, got it. You've said it so many times, you're such a nag. Can't you learn from Xia Zhi?"

"...Okay."

Lin Chuyan was rendered speechless by the retort and could only hope that they would calm down after watching the movie.

But come to think of it, it seemed this was his first time watching the movie too.

Yes, although he had acted in it, he really hadn't seen it.

Soon, the movie began.

Two hours later.

"You played that villain pretty well..."

"It's a movie, it's a movie, don't take it seriously."

"And how you treat your girlfriend..."

"It's good, I treat her very well, the movie is all fake..."

Su Lanxin stared at him for a long time, feeling that she still couldn't digest the character her son had played, and it finally culminated in a single threat.

"You'd better!"

"..."

After watching a movie with his parents in his hometown and hanging out for two more days, Lin Chuyan left again—he had to catch up with his girlfriend's schedule.

In the past few days, with the official release of the hovering blade》, contrary to the film's mediocre reputation, the box office had been steadily rising.

However, people in the industry saw this very clearly; it just happened to coincide with a hot social topic, so they could be considered lucky.

In reality, there were those who cursed the movie for being bad, and there were also those who cursed Lin Chuyan... and they were even his fans.

Clicking into their personal page, it was someone who had been a fan for several years since his debut. They posted a long paragraph, claiming to be a true fan turning against him.

"When you debuted, you had no talent, yet I still liked you because I knew you didn't mean it and you were anxious too. When you made your comeback and acted in web movies, I was very happy because I knew you were still working hard and hadn't given up. You released albums and started Singing, I listened every day, and more and more people like you, which made me happy for you. But what about now? You want to be an actor, fine, no problem, but what kind of role did you play? You accepted a role like this? You completely disregard the feelings of the fans who truly like and care for you, right? What good does this do besides driving away fans like me who truly support you? It's disgusting. Goodbye. I'll just consider these few years of my youth wasted."

The most ridiculous part was that there were quite a few fans who held the same opinion.

Although Lin Chuyan couldn't understand it, it didn't stop him from posting on Weibo to retort.

He reposted the Weibo, edited the text, and published it.

"You've finished listing the benefits, what about the downsides?"

...The lethality was low, but the level of insult was extremely high.

Consequently, fans who originally just wanted to unfollow quietly started posting on Weibo and uploading videos to attack him.

Regarding this, Lin Chuyan's thought was simple: Good thing, a great thing. This is called weeding out the fans; a little cleaning is healthier.

Immediately after, the movie a little red flower》 also quickly set its release date for July 15th, exactly one month apart from the hovering blade》.

This name... naturally reminded many people of Lin Chuyan's song.

And the production team of a little red flower》 didn't hide it: Yes, that's right, we bought it; it is indeed Lin Chuyan's song. It's good, come watch it; the movie is as touching as the theme song.

This was also one of the early promotional points.

In other words, for this Summer Movie Season, Lin Chuyan had one movie he starred in being released, and he also sang the theme song for another movie.

Things were looking up, completely looking up. Those of Lin Chuyan's fans with normal brains were once again able to hold their heads high. Hmm, it just felt like something was missing—in such a great situation, how could there be no one to sacrifice to the flag?

Hey, what a coincidence? There actually was one!

In the past few days, a marketing account suddenly posted a Weibo, truth unknown.

"Breaking news: Feng Liqian was eliminated from the Fengshen Training Camp... According to insiders, the training camp holds a performance review every six weeks, and then they compete for the roles they want. Feng Liqian initially wanted to play Yang Jian, but couldn't compete for it. Later, he wanted to audition for Ji Fa, but still didn't pass. Of course, some staff members said the bigger reason should be that, due to the online war between his and Lin Chuyan's fans previously, Director Yu Jin felt it was better to use amateurs..."

Once the news came out, the fans immediately exploded and started cursing the marketing account for spreading rumors.

However, there were naturally many who believed it, including Lin Chuyan's fans—regardless of whether it was true or fake, anything that allowed them to step on one to praise the other was good news!

"Some people have two movies in the Summer Movie Season, while others are miserably eliminated in the summer. I won't say who it is, hehe."

"Retribution came too fast, hahaha. During the Spring Festival Movie Season, he was still clinging to my brother, biting everyone everywhere. Who would have thought, who would have thought, it's only been how long, how did the situation turn out like this?"

"My brother holds a little red flower in his left hand and the hovering blade in his right hand. If a god blocks him, he kills the god; if Feng blocks him, he kills Feng. He looks very tough to mess with!"

As for Feng Liqian, well, as always, there was no response...

Lin Chuyan also didn't say anything. He couldn't say anything about this kind of news, so he just laughed it off, lest people accuse him of kicking someone while they were down—if he really did say something, that was almost certain to happen.

Before leaving his hometown, Lin Chuyan discussed one thing with his father, Lin Zhiyuan.

First, he clarified exactly how much money he was making now to him. From music copyrights, to endorsement fees, to acting salaries...

Only then did he make a suggestion: Why don't you stop going to work!

Although his father was recovered from his illness, his health was actually not as good as before. Anyway, since he could earn money now, why bother going to work?

Fortunately, although Lin Zhiyuan had worked his whole life, he didn't have any strange habits like "I must go back to work, otherwise I feel uncomfortable all over"...

They weren't the type of people who held power, having to worry about losing it or being forgotten after retirement, right?

Lin Zhiyuan just replied: "Alright, I'll discuss it with your mother."

So Lin Chuyan didn't say anything more; this matter was likely settled.

Thus, his mood was even better.

Since he was doing well and had the ability to influence others, he should strive to make sure the people around him who loved him were also doing well; that was the right thing to do.

Next...

Everything is ready, all that's missing is the east wind. Girlfriend, I'm coming!
