211: Chapter 211 Fourth Version MV

Ruan Xingyu was quite surprised. When her boyfriend released the blue album, he seemed to have mentioned shooting an MV for "ambush from ten sides." He had even thought of the plot, with the two of them acting as the male and female leads... She just didn't expect him to still remember after such a long time.

"I thought you weren't going to shoot it anymore!"

"We just couldn't find the right time. The female lead has been on tour, and the male lead has been filming. We accidentally delayed it." Lin Chuyan expressed his helplessness. "But I originally told Zheng Hai that we would shoot abroad. I wanted to take the opportunity to go out and play with you. Besides, abroad, we wouldn't have to avoid people too much."

Ruan Xingyu smiled and comforted him: "It doesn't matter where we go. The most important thing is that you are by my side~ And I am by your side~"

"Yeah, just like shooting the MV, that's actually not the main thing..." Lin Chuyan's voice was very gentle. Every time he talked to his girlfriend, his voice would unconsciously become very soft. He didn't know why. "The main thing is, I miss you. I want to see you, I really, really want to see you."

Ruan Xingyu held her phone and couldn't help but start teasing him again: "I've felt your longing. Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Zhang. I'm flying over right now. Immediately, at once."

Lin Chuyan had been teased by her a lot these past few days, so he didn't mind anymore: "So good to me?"

"Last time you flew over to find me, this time I'm flying over to find you. Isn't that fair?"

"Well, last time I even crawled into your bed. This time?"

"..." Ruan Xingyu had nothing to say. "Are you men all like this? You can't say a few words without heading in that direction."

Lin Chuyan started to protest his innocence: "I'm wronged! Besides, the Big-Headed Son is supposed to listen to the Small-Headed Dad."

Ruan Xingyu thought for several seconds before realizing what he was talking about: "Pah! I watched your acting. The look in your eyes when you were looking at Yin Hong in the drama was so pure... You actors are too good at deceiving people. It's a good thing your group of female fans don't know you're like this!"

"That's where you're wrong... I can't even bear to look at my private messages on Weibo now..." Lin Chuyan shrugged. "It used to be all sorts of insults, but now, it's all explicit words... It's a good thing your boyfriend has a firm heart, okay? Really, there are too many people in my DMs trying to hit on me. There are even people sending explicit photos, both men and women. It's too scary."

"Oh, yeah!" Ruan Xingyu remembered, "Before, there was a male celebrity who slept with fans, and the female fans even thought he was a 'male bodhisattva'."

Lin Chuyan's internal monologue: I don't want to sleep with fans, I only want to sleep with you.

But what he said was: "You wait a few days, okay? I'll discuss with Zheng Hai how to shoot this MV, and then you can come over. Otherwise, if you come, I won't be able to accompany you. I'm busy filming every day."

"Okay, I'll wait for you. You work hard, and then you can rest for a while."

Lin Chuyan was quite thick-skinned: "I won't rest. When the time comes, take me to meet our mom and dad..."

"Hahahahahaha!" Ruan Xingyu really couldn't hold it back this time.

"Hey, hey, what are you laughing at?"

"Lin Chuyan, if you have the guts, call them Mom and Dad to their faces."

"No guts, thanks. I'll just secretly call them that behind their backs for now. It's mainly because I'm afraid you'll run away, so I'm letting you get used to it in advance."

Ruan Xingyu was truly impressed by him: "You don't seem nervous at all?"

"I am nervous! But fortunately, I've already met your mom. She's very nice, and we chat on WeChat from time to time."

Ruan Xingyu was a bit curious: "What do you talk about? She never mentioned it to me."

"About you, and me. Sometimes when she sees entertainment news about us, she forwards it. She's also been binging the drama I acted in, 'the long season', and she even asked me for spoilers. Oh, we also talk about cooking. I even taught her several dishes, all of which I learned from my dad. They're home-style dishes, with few steps, easy to make, and delicious."

Ruan Xingyu could only worship him: "I admire you, I admire you."

But her tone changed and she started to accuse him: "But this is cheating!"

"No, what did I do that's cheating?"

"Using your dad's recipes to curry favor is cheating." Ruan Xingyu was a bit worried, "Then when I go to meet your parents, what should I do?"

"It's fine, just you showing up is enough. My dad is already half a fan of yours. Before he knew we were together, he was already praising you. And my mom, I bought her your album and the best audio equipment. She loves listening to it and often plays your songs at home."

Ruan Xingyu expressed her approval and praise for his initiative in improving her image in front of his parents: "When we meet in a few days, let me give you a good kiss."

Lin Chuyan: "Same here."

After finishing the call with his girlfriend, Lin Chuyan originally wanted to talk to Zheng Hai about the MV. As for the content of the MV, they had talked about it before, but it was just a general idea, without many details, so he needed to confirm it again to see if it could be polished further.

But on second thought, Director Du Qiyu and Director Mu Sheng were on set, so why look far when he had them nearby? Weren't these two better than any MV director?

So he found these two and told them about his plan to shoot the MV in Hong Kong. He also talked about the concept of "ambush from ten sides" and some of his own filming ideas.

Things like being followed, being hunted and escaping, gunfights... He mainly asked if they had any good suggestions.

Director Du Qiyu sat on the sofa smoking a cigar. After listening, he smiled: "Your idea is quite good, I like it. Why don't you stop fussing about it? I'll shoot it for you, no charge."

Director Mu Sheng also smiled: "I can't get away, but with this subject matter, as long as Director Du Qiyu is willing to do it, it's definitely a sure thing."

Lin Chuyan's eyes lit up. Oh right, how could he have forgotten this? Director Du Qiyu had indeed shot many films about the criminal underworld, and they were all excellent works. If he was willing to help, why was he busy running around in vain?

"Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut, Director Du Qiyu!" Lin Chuyan was still a bit embarrassed. "Is this appropriate?"

Director Du Qiyu waved his hand: "There's nothing inappropriate about it. Besides, this is very simple. I estimate it will be finished in two hours. By the way, how long is this song?"

"4 minutes and 8 seconds."

"Oh, just 4 minutes, then don't bother with script planning and such. It's not needed."

"...Understood." Lin Chuyan trusted him unconditionally. On second thought, it made sense. With just a few minutes of plot, in front of Director Du Qiyu, it really didn't count as anything.

"You and your girlfriend are the male and female leads of the MV, right?"

"Yes. Also, she is a Singer and hasn't acted before."

"I know, Ruan Xingyu, right? I've heard her songs. It's fine, as long as you look good. With the two of you's looks, it's impossible not to shoot it well. Besides, this thing doesn't need acting skills."

Director Du Qiyu was on a roll, so he simply pulled him over, intending to discuss the MV plot right now: "Come, I just thought of four versions. See which one you like."

"Huh?" Four versions, that's quite something.

"Don't 'huh' me, listen. These four versions just have different identity settings. In fact, the final product will be about the same, inseparable from the tracking, escaping, hunting, and gunfights you mentioned earlier... For example, you are a killer, and in the process of killing someone, you happen to save a mysterious woman, but because of this, you are hunted down, and the two of you develop feelings on the road; for example, you are an undercover agent who discovers a huge secret but your undercover identity is discovered by the gang, and you are saved by the boss's woman on the way, only to find out she is also an undercover agent, and you two start running for your lives; for example, you and your girlfriend are both gang members, the boss is killed by an opposing gang, and I tell a story of you two taking revenge; for example, after you retire from the underworld, you find a girlfriend, but then people you offended in the original gang come knocking, and you can only protect her while running for your lives..."

"That's enough, enough, Director Du Qiyu. It's perfect. Shoot whatever you want, I'll listen to you."

Lin Chuyan just laid flat.

"Hmm, pick one of these versions yourself." Director Du Qiyu thought for a moment and added, "How about this? While we are still filming 'a moment of romance', I can close the road for another day in a few days. I'll just shoot the MV for you while I'm at it. Done deal."

Lin Chuyan's face beamed with a smile: "Thank you so much, Director Du Qiyu!"
