400: Chapter 400 Dual Blades

...

Just posting a few Weibo posts and calling it a day? There is no such easy thing.

Thinking the public opinion will blow over in two days? Good works of art are eternal, so please stay on the pillar of shame for a lifetime!

Lin Chuyan's Weibo post once again triggered widespread discussion among netizens.

[double blades? What double blades? What does double blades mean?]

[Lin Chuyan mentioned it during his livestream, it seems it is written for Director Deng Yu?]

[He still loves Director Deng Yu so much.]

[I am definitely on Lin Chuyan's side this time. Yanzi is right; the Chinese Entertainment Industry is rotten to the core and needs a blade.]

[My brother is going straight for two blades. I just want to ask, is Director Deng Yu afraid?]

Young Actor Qi Ye frowned upon seeing this news and shielded the others behind him.

At this moment, after the awards ceremony, the group was still together.

"Uncle, Aunt, that mad dog Lin Chuyan bit Feng Liqian before. He released a song back then too, and Feng Liqian is still being mocked for it even now. We must take this seriously."

Although Lin Chuyan had mentioned it during his livestream a few days ago, Director Deng Yu and Producer Zhang Nuo had not taken it too seriously.

The couple looked at each other, unable to understand this kind of tactic.

"Do you have any ideas?"

When asked this, Young Actor Qi Ye could not come up with anything.

What could he do? Write a song to diss him back? He did not have that ability, you know.

Only people who had been hurt before, like General Manager Liao of "Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba" and Feng Liqian, knew how deep the tricks went!

Feng Liqian, at least, had psychological trauma.

"It is here, it is here. It is exactly this feeling—throwing out a song without saying a word, then the whole internet is listening and discussing, and in the end, everyone turns themselves into clowns."

What is the most outrageous part? It is that Lin Chuyan, by "writing a good song," has placed himself in an invincible position.

Does a good song mean that what the singer says is right? No.

But the audience just thinks it is cool, thinks it is awesome, and thinks the opponent has been "defeated."

It is simply absurd!

"Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba" had a bit of a masochistic streak; he was getting addicted to fawning over Lin Chuyan. Had he been scolded? So what?

After enough psychological suggestion, one starts to believe it oneself.

For example, "It is a great virtue to correct one's mistakes." Is that not talking about himself?

General Manager Liao had watched Lin Chuyan grow step by step from a small idol to today's Asian superstar; he knew how difficult the other party was.

You cannot have someone like this as an opponent!

Others look at it and think Lin Chuyan is offending a big shot; in his eyes, Lin Chuyan is using momentum to suppress others, and public opinion is basically on his side in every aspect.

Brother Mosquito was already boiling with excitement.

His idol was once again using a song as a weapon to fight back. The time before last was "ambush from ten sides," the last time was "General," and this time it was "double blades." It sounded just as exciting. Could it be his favorite "Lin-style Rap" again? He was looking forward to it immensely.

Also, this time the blade was not pointed at a small fry like Feng Liqian, but directly at a big shot. Could he take him down?

He had a blast watching Lin Chuyan retort to Young Actor Qi Ye's fans all night. An idol is an idol; he does not even use dirty words when roasting people. If nothing else, just for this, he was worth learning from!

Teacher Wawa looked at the problem from a different angle.

"Straight ahead of the double blades, my killing intent does not turn."

Hmm, as soon as this line came out, it was highly likely to be rap.

And, is this line not written too well?

First, the imagery is very strong. Through "Straight ahead of the double blades" and "my killing intent does not turn," it creates a tense combat atmosphere, as if immersing people in a world of flashing blades and shadows.

Second, the language is concise and powerful. The wording is succinct but full of power, especially the expression "my killing intent does not turn," which is both direct and impactful.

Third, the emotion is very intense. This single line already conveys a resolute and fearless attitude, showcasing Teacher Lin Chuyan's firmness and courage, which easily resonates.

Fourth, the sense of rhythm is excellent. Upon careful savoring, the short sentence structure is compact, reading with a clang and force, enhancing the momentum of the statement.

Finally, the imagery is unique. What is "killing intent"? It is originally relatively abstract. But Teacher Lin Chuyan endowed it with the characteristic of "not turning," making it vivid and memorable all of a sudden.

A good song! Truly a good song!

He did not even need to listen to it to know that Lin Chuyan had another excellent work about to be released.

As for what "double blades" are, that would have to wait until he finished listening to the song to start interpreting.

Now, get your headphones ready, just waiting for the release of "double blades."

...

Lin Chuyan did not make everyone wait.

This song had already been recorded, so it just needed to go through the process to release the single.

So, come on.

That night, "double blades" was unsheathed.

Lin Chuyan began to sing in a low voice.

The first two lines of lyrics were very surprising.

"Re-edited through the lens, the imagination given by history."

"The scenes of an 8mm documentary, appreciated from a distance."

[Lens? Re-edited? History? Imagination? What does this mean?]

[Appreciated from a distance? I think I understand...]

It is no wonder everyone would associate it; mainly, at this juncture, no one would not think of Director Deng Yu, after all, Lin Chuyan calls him out by name every other day.

Everyone continued to listen.

"Two sides in opposition of good and evil, I clench my fists and start to get used to the method of an eye for an eye."

"Wind, spiraling, smoke filling the air. The incense I lit devoutly is praying for peace."

[Clear enough, these two lines? Good versus evil, an eye for an eye.]

Director Deng Yu finally came to his senses upon hearing this line, and he almost could not keep a straight face: "Bullshit! You are praying for peace? You are painting yourself as the vulnerable side? You have got some nerve, clenching your fists? It has clearly been me enduring you all along!"

Listening further, Lin Chuyan continued to cast Director Deng Yu's side into the abyss, while stirring up the emotions of the listeners.

You are violent, others do not resist, but I am different.

I represent justice; I just cannot stand you bullying others by abusing your power.

"Looking down from the rooftop, violence spinning in place; the solution solved by the previous generation was to smile and not resist."

"The Tang suit soaked by rain, that sigh is very Eastern; I cannot stand dignity being hurt, the family being so unbearable."

After all, Old Deng was the person involved, and he could taste more things from the lyrics: "Damn, this little brat speaks so innocently? Packaging himself as a good guy? What rain-soaked Tang suit, what Eastern, if he is Eastern, then what am I?"

...

Director Deng Yu continued to listen with a pained expression; Lin Chuyan's rap kept drilling into his ears like a chant.

He did not think it sounded good, but he had to admit the lyrics were very novel and unique...

It belonged to the kind where those who did not know the ins and outs would not think of him, but as long as one understood the sequence of events, every single sentence was pointing at him!

And when the last four lines came out, Director Deng Yu's face collapsed: "Damn it, does the imagery have to be this strong?!"

The line from Lin Chuyan's Weibo finally came—

"Straight ahead of the double blades, my killing intent does not turn."

"The power with its back to me, it gets hurt itself."

"To the bottom right of the double blades, I swing the blade to end it."

"Seeing through all the grudges, the gleam in the phoenix eyes."

The song ended.

Passerby netizens were even more impressed by the grudges between Lin Chuyan and Director Deng Yu: "Got it, good and evil cannot stand together! The big shot in the entertainment industry is making the Chinese Entertainment Industry worse and worse, and Lin Chuyan, a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, cannot stand it anymore and decides to take action."

That must be it, right?

Look at the things Director Deng Yu has done recently, like hyping up "the play," the pre-made meal Best Actor... do they not all match up?

Are you still not supporting Lin Chuyan?

Teacher Wawa, at any rate, had a great time listening.

He could analyze it thoroughly with just one line of lyrics, let alone four?

These four lines could not even be called lyrics anymore; combined with the various weapon sounds in the arrangement, it was practically filming a play!

Damn it, this is what you call "the play"!

Also, what are double blades? What are these two blades respectively? Wawa finally understood.

Write! A short essay must be written!

Teacher Lin Chuyan, wait for me!
