279: Chapter 279 Is this in Chinese?

The two Weibo posts from Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba and Wawa completely scrambled the netizens' brains.

The former, upholding the spirit of serious archaeological research, endorsed Lin Chuyan's dedication and hard work, and finally issued a deafening question: "How many years has it been since the entertainment industry has seen such a figure?"

Netizens: "Holy crap, you fans really dare to say anything. What, is Lin Chuyan also a 'once in four thousand years' talent?"

The latter was even more outrageous. He praised the song "my territory" as something rarely seen in heaven or on earth, throwing out terms like 'masterpiece,' 'spirit of the times,' 'Lin-style Rap,' and 'professional contribution'... The jargon just kept pouring out, leaving people stunned.

What's even more exaggerated is that he actually explained away Lin Chuyan's slurred pronunciation, claiming it was intentional, citing things like "treating the voice as an instrument" and "vowel-based rhyming treatment"... Is that for real? We aren't professional music critics, don't try to fool us.

But when everyone went to listen to "my territory" again, they couldn't help but keep Wawa's interpretations in mind. Once they listened, it actually seemed like what Wawa said was true. Lin Chuyan's intentional slur sounded much more pleasant; it felt like every word was bouncy, springing up, bouncing away crow's feet, with a unique style of its own.

However, Zhao Peng, who has always had a grudge against Wawa—having been roasted by Wawa backstage at the Huayin Awards, which led to an irreconcilable feud—had a different opinion.

"I quite like Lin Chuyan's works, but I really cannot agree with his singing style. Slurred pronunciation is just slurred pronunciation; don't make so many excuses for yourself. Perhaps you are very passionate about rap, but that's not how rap is sung. I suggest Lin Chuyan learn from those in the underground scene; seriously, that is real rap. Also, some people seem to have completely abandoned their professionalism, praising Lin whenever they see him—it's just mindless. Being in the same circle as such a person, I can only say, it's pathetic."

First, he set up a defensive shield, then started roasting. The shield was to maintain his professionalism, and the roasting was to gain attention, hoping to gather all the netizens who also dislike Lin Chuyan and Wawa so he wouldn't lack traffic in the future.

Given Lin Chuyan's current status, roasting Haters or someone like Feng Liqian is fine, but he naturally wouldn't pay attention to someone who is clearly begging for traffic and hoping he would go over and roast them... We don't do things that put us at a disadvantage.

However, Wawa didn't have such concerns. Especially after seeing Lin Chuyan send him a WeChat message to soothe him, he became even more energized. He directly posted on Weibo to curse back from afar; for every Weibo post Zhao Peng made, he would post three.

"You feel pathetic being in the same circle as me? I wonder when Teacher Zhao plans to retire? When that time comes, I'll be happy to send red envelopes to the netizens to celebrate properly."

"Look, what did I say back then: If someone like you, Zhao Peng, can be a judge, can he be one? No, he can't, he doesn't have the ability, you know? Now it seems I wasn't wrong back then."

"Curse, keep cursing. Anxious, so anxious. Your statement can only prove one thing: that Golden Melody > Huayin Awards."

"Look at the works you've written yourself; what kind of stinking dog shit is that? And you're critiquing Lin Chuyan? Do you even deserve to?"

They say fans follow their idols, and that saying is certainly true. Wawa's ability to curse is no less impressive than Lin Chuyan's...

Although Zhao Peng had anticipated this and felt a bit like he got what he asked for, he initially thought it would be best if Lin Chuyan would step in and curse him, rather than being cursed like this by that goddamn Wawa...

But it was still okay. He should keep at it. If he did it a few more times, even if the guy named Lin ignored him, the other side's Haters would surely love to watch his videos.

After calculating it this way, his eyes grew brighter and brighter: This path is feasible!

In short, with the two of them messing around like this, the popularity of the song "my territory" simply wouldn't die down.

Several hashtags were hanging on the Weibo trending list: #my territory Listen to Me# #Lin Chuyan my territory#

The most magical part is that two others were also hanging there: #Good to Listen To# #Hard to Listen To#

Clicking in, both sides held their own views, attacking each other's taste—it was truly something else... You call me tasteless, I call you a wild boar that can't appreciate fine bran; you call me a fanboy, I call you a mindless Hater.

Just as the two sides were arguing incessantly, another client announced, riding the wave of popularity with great speed.

First was "pegasus 2."

"pegasus 2" wrapped filming on November 1st, at which time Lin Chuyan specifically posted a Weibo to congratulate Director Chu and the crew.

However, the following few months were the key. Director Chu was determined to make the special effects the best they could be this time, making up for the problems that were criticized in the first film.

Lin Chuyan couldn't help with this, but he still asked Director Chu: "Director Chu, do you need any songs?"

Director Chu had a big question mark in his head at the time: "Didn't we already buy 'the ordinary road'? You're bringing another one?"

Lin Chuyan coaxed him patiently: "What is 'the ordinary road' about? It's about Zhang Chi's life, so what does that have to do with me, Li Xiaohai? Director, don't you think there should be a BGM when Li Xiaohai is racing in the second half?"

Director Chu agreed with him on this. Especially since Lin Chuyan had broken the racing record during this period, their team conducted market opinion surveys before viewing and found that many comments were from people planning to go to the cinema to watch Lin Chuyan drive. The importance of Li Xiaohai, the second male lead, was also rising in Director Chu's mind: "You're not wrong about that..."

"What a coincidence, I have one right here. Do you want to listen to it?"

And so, "drifting" was sold just like that.

Director Chu had a good relationship with him and didn't haggle; anyway, Spring Festival Movie Season films have plenty of money. His subsequent promotional expenses were already astronomical; he didn't care about a million or two. Besides, Lin Chuyan was worth that price now; it was hard to say who was making more money.

And just like that, the opportunity came knocking.

"pegasus 2" official Weibo: "I use the first person to drift through my youth. The measure of winning and losing is calculated precisely. — Good news: Li Xiaohai also has an exclusive BGM. Lin Chuyan's new song 'drifting,' see you on the first day of the Lunar New Year."

Famous writer Director Chu wrote and posted it himself.

It was a very simple Weibo post, but it was packed with information.

"Isn't Li Xiaohai the character played by Lin Chuyan? An exclusive BGM? Holy crap!"

"I know 'drifting,' it's on Aiyue.com, it's Lin Chuyan's new song. I was wondering when it would be released earlier, but it seems there's no chance. Does that mean this song can only be heard in 'pegasus 2' during the Spring Festival Movie Season? Is that what it means?"

"What's the first sentence? Feels like one of the lyrics?"

"It should be. Sounds pretty badass too, hahahaha!"

"Nice, nice, another reason to watch 'pegasus 2'."

Just as netizens were still discussing "drifting," another brand made an official announcement.

This time it was Vogartis, and the information was even more significant.

"Respected Vogartis brand fans, at Vogartis, we believe that true luxury comes not only from exquisite craftsmanship and extraordinary design, but also from souls that resonate with our brand spirit.

Attached below were nine photos, and who else could it be in the photos but Lin Chuyan?

That's how things went, but this time the Haters were completely dumbfounded and couldn't understand it at all: "Huh? Is this Chinese?"
