210: Chapter 210 My dear sisters, I'm sorry, Fu Weijun needs me.
...
"the long season" has been rated, with a 9.4 on Douban.
When was the last time a domestic TV series achieved this score? Many people started looking back, only to realize it seems to have been ten years ago...
"Awesome! So awesome! The last time I saw such an awesome show was just last time."
"I originally thought this show would be like that drama, relying on Lin Chuyan to become popular, but I didn't expect it to be so impressive in every aspect."
As the show's reputation grew in waves, netizens were discussing everything under the sun.
Some praised the acting skills of the veteran actors, some praised the compelling plot, some praised the director's deep skill, and some even praised the director's musical aesthetic.
Of course, with Lin Chuyan's traffic here, there were even more praises for him.
One second people were scolding him for the violent or villainous roles he'd been taking lately, and the next second they were slapped in the face, realizing that even in such shows, there could be great characters that made the audience fall in love.
The Haters were absolutely losing it: "Damn it, isn't it just taking off a hearing aid? How is that comparable to unbuckling a belt? Isn't it just beating people up? How did that get linked to sexual tension?"
Immediately after, even worse news arrived: some Haters, especially female Haters, were suddenly defeated by the mute Fu Weijun's little glances—this was directly dismantling the enemy forces from within.
Wait, no, we agreed that no matter how the world changes, we would stay with Feng Liqian forever. Are you changing your mind so quickly?
Feng Liqian's music is our heartbeat, Feng Liqian's stage is our dream; do these words no longer count?
Even if Feng Liqian has temporary failures, we must stand up with him! This is what it means to be a true fan of Feng Liqian!
"But don't you think Lin Chuyan is really handsome? Plus, his Singing is great, and his acting is also very good..."
"Bullshit! It's one thing to be a fan of someone else, but what's the point of being a fan of Lin Chuyan? Everyone knows he and Feng Liqian have a grudge!"
"Sisters are all right, but Teacher Zhang needs me. He is too pitiful, getting beaten every day; what would he do without me?"
"Bullshit! It's Teacher Zhang... it's Fu Weijun who is always beating others! Which eye of yours saw him getting beaten every day!"
"Huh, are you also watching 'the long season'?"
"Heh, can't I? With his type, always playing violent villain roles, what does he have to compare with Feng Liqian!"
However, a few days later, the plot reached episode 8, and the audience suddenly discovered that Teacher Zhang actually had a romantic subplot!
The question arose: when a character who only relies on fierce fighting to make people feel full of sexual tension can actually act out a pure love storyline and make people sympathize with him, how will this character be viewed by female fans?
In this episode, Yin Hong, a hostess Shen Mo met while working at the Victoria Dance Hall, got drunk on her way home. Because Shen Mo was worried, she took her to her younger brother Fu Weijun's video parlor to stay for the night.
The love story of Fu Weijun and his "DIY" first love began here.
At night, Fu Weijun came to knock on the door, holding a bowl of wontons, and then he saw a girl sitting on his bed.
Shen Mo introduced him: "This is my younger brother, Fu Weijun. I was afraid you'd have a stomachache when you woke up, so I asked him to buy you a bowl of wontons."
Yin Hong smiled and looked at Fu Weijun: "Thank you, my name is Yin Hong."
Fu Weijun pursed his lips. He had his right hand in his pocket, placed his left palm to his ear as if listening, and then quickly shook his head, his expression showing a hint of loneliness.
Shen Mo: "He can't hear."
Yin Hong was a bit surprised, then immediately looked at him and smiled again. She gave Fu Weijun a thumbs-up with her right hand, and then quickly bent her thumb twice.
This meant "Thank you" in Sign Language.
Fu Weijun didn't expect her to know Sign Language, so he nodded, but his eyes didn't dare to look at her, and he quickly left.
The camera cut again. Fu Weijun, who was sitting downstairs in the video parlor warming himself by the fire, stretched his neck, trying hard to look towards the stairs to the second floor. His left ear, wearing a hearing aid, was tilted up, seemingly wanting to hear what Yin Hong and his sister were talking about upstairs, but unfortunately, it was in vain.
He looked down at his right hand, gave himself a thumbs-up, and then bent his thumb twice.
A smile began to appear on his face—no longer the sinister or ruthless smile from when he was fighting people, but a shy and gentle smile.
Immediately after, he placed both palms on his chest and moved them back and forth, then placed his right index finger under his nose—this meant "You're welcome" in Sign Language.
Yes, at this moment, he had completed a conversation.
When Yin Hong said "Thank you" to him earlier, he didn't respond.
A man who feared nothing suddenly didn't dare to respond.
He tilted his head again to look at the stairwell, and he smiled again. He pursed his lips, trying hard to hold back his silly smile, but ultimately failed.
He was smiling so happily.
This is the taste of love.
But just when all the audience thought Fu Weijun would have a sweet romance, the director dealt Junzi a heavy blow.
In the next part of the plot, Yin Hong slept with a Hong Kong businessman who came to the dance hall looking for fun, getting her first taste of the pleasure brought by money.
Then, when Fu Weijun expressed his love to her, he was naturally rejected by Yin Hong.
He was full of anticipation as he offered the gift in his hands. Yin Hong clearly had something to say, so he leaned in with his left ear wearing the hearing aid and heard Yin Hong's words: "You're quite good-looking."
Junzi smiled shyly.
"But other than being good-looking, you don't have anything else. Just keep running your video parlor properly; this isn't a place you should be coming to."
Yin Hong took the hairpin Fu Weijun had given her and again used Sign Language—it was the same thumbs-up, the same thumb bending twice, the same "Thank you."
But this time, in Fu Weijun's eyes, it felt completely different.
He still just nodded, still unable to use Sign Language to gesture the phrase "You're welcome."
Watching Yin Hong's figure walking away quickly without looking back, his whole body couldn't help but sway slightly; he seemed unable to stand steady.
His eyes were filled with tears. He didn't blame her for liking money; he only resented that his status was humble and that he was disabled.
The pure-love war god Fu Weijun had his heart broken in just one day.
...
The audience didn't know what to say anymore.
"Sisters, I'm sorry, I'm going to start being a fan of Lin Chuyan too."
"Feng Liqian, I'm sorry, you still have many fans, but Fu Weijun really can't do without me."
"Junzi, don't cry, you still have us (┬_┬)"
"I can't take it anymore, how is Lin Chuyan such a good actor, oh my god! I can really handle this gaze!"
"Who dares to say Lin Chuyan can't act now? Playing a mute, he still makes people feel heartache!"
"Rejecting my Fu Weijun? Yin Hong, you are heartless! You deserve to die!"
"Wait, brother, are you a pure-love war god?"
"Fu Weijun fights so fiercely, but at this moment, he is like a poor, helpless puppy, discarded at will."
"Teacher Zhang, my Teacher Zhang, you have so much tension!"
...
At this moment, Teacher Zhang was chatting with his girlfriend: "Hey, I suddenly have a good idea."
Ruan Xingyu, who was watching the show with the general public, naturally fell in love with the character Fu Weijun. How to put it, the more she looked at her boyfriend, the more handsome she thought he was; she almost wanted him to wear a school uniform and cosplay as Fu Weijun...
"What good idea?"
"Don't I have an MV for 'ambush from ten sides' that hasn't been filmed yet?"
"Hmm?"
"I was thinking, the streets of Hong Kong are quite atmospheric at night. Why don't we take advantage of me filming here, and you continue to be my female lead, and we'll shoot the MV!"
