57: Chapter 57 Taking in the Heartbroken Boy from "Rebirth"
Wu Yue stayed in Beijing to oversee the matters before the EP release, while Lin Chuyan returned to Shancheng the very next day, following the team around everywhere to observe.
He watched how Director Liu Zhi handled various pre-filming issues and listened to his senior and Zhao Jinpeng discuss the Acting for this play. He learned quite a lot from this trip; it must be said that many things truly cannot be learned just by reading books.
Director Liu Zhi didn't actually demand anything specific of him, but he had a clear plan for his own future—
Since he wanted to be an actor, he would do it properly. He had to be professional enough and dedicated enough.
He shouldn't look down on certain young idols who were slack in their work in his past life, only to repeat their trajectory and style himself.
If he did that, he would look down on himself too.
The reviews for the listening party were already out.
In fact, musicians had been posting on Weibo one after another since last night, and it could basically be called a wave of rave reviews.
It was just that he was very busy last night, busy dating Ruan Xingyu, so he didn't pay attention to the news online.
One could only say that the situation was even more explosive than he had imagined...
It seemed like he could already see the treasure chest beckoning to him.
This was the first time he saw his name appear on the trending search list, not just the entertainment list.
Trending #4 #rebirth Lin Chuyan#
Trending #11 #rebirth listening party reviews#
These two trending topics completely baffled the Haters.
"So the 'rebirth' I've been looking forward to for so long is actually a song by Lin Chuyan? Is this poisonous? I'm boycotting Tianxing Entertainment for life!"
"No wonder it's called 'rebirth'; does it actually mean Lin Chuyan is turning over a new leaf? That's kind of funny, is he even worthy?"
"Tianxing Entertainment signed Lin Chuyan? What kind of crazy move is this?"
"To the person above, this is what they call having so much debt you don't feel the weight. Anyway, Tianxing Entertainment gets cursed at every day, so adding one more Lin Chuyan doesn't make a difference."
"Let's disperse, let's disperse. Who the hell wants to listen to Lin Chuyan Singing? Shouldn't we boycott this? If we don't make Tianxing Entertainment lose everything, they'll dare to do it again next time! They never learn!"
However, none of this mattered compared to the worst part: many Haters were also fans of Ruan Xingyu.
"Damn it, I just thought of something. Xingxing is the female lead in the MV for this EP! F***, no, it can't be what I'm thinking, right!!!"
"So that MV behind-the-scenes screenshot that Tianxing Entertainment exposed earlier??? The man playing around with Xingxing on the sofa??? Damn it, don't hold me back, I'm going to send razor blades to Zheng Hai!!!"
"What kind of NTR plot is this! Lin Chuyan is that blond guy, have I become the cuckold???"
Many fans were unable to speak without using profanity.
"It hurts, it hurts so much. I can't eat, brothers, what should I do?"
Another person who was equally heartbroken was Zhuang Xiaowen, whose ID was "Mosquito Hits Cannon"...
Brother Mosquito didn't go to class today and had been lying on his dorm bed all day.
It was nothing, just felt like his corpse was a bit uncomfortable, too lazy to move.
It looked like he could only rely on his roommates to bring him food to maintain his vital signs.
Heartache, heartbreak, his heart was dead.
In the end, it only turned into one vow:
"I, damn it, even if I jump off the dorm building! Fall to my death! I will never listen to 'rebirth'! I'm putting it out there today: boycott, we must boycott!!!"
Then he thought about the things he had said online before.
"If Xingxing says it sounds good, then I must support it" "Looking forward to the mysterious Singer"
Family, who understands!
Brother Mosquito felt like dying.
However, professional musicians clearly had different opinions.
As a famous Songwriting expert, Wawa, in addition to his main job, often commented on the live performances of various Singers online.
He wasn't afraid of offending people; his songs sold well anyway. Sometimes if he cursed someone out, they still had to come to his door with a smiling face to beg for songs.
Because he dared to tell the truth, over time he accumulated quite a few fans, and many people came specifically for this trait of his.
After getting home last night, Wawa only did one thing: he announced today's livestream, preparing to talk about the 'rebirth' listening party.
At 2 PM, people started entering the livestream room.
Wawa held a cup of cappuccino, looking calm and composed, chatting casually with netizens sending barrage comments while waiting for more people to enter the livestream.
"Is it about time? Let me see how many people there are... Come, come, come, let's chat together."
"Big Wawa, did Tianxing Entertainment sign Lin Chuyan?" Wawa read the barrage comment and answered, "As far as I know, no. Lin Chuyan went to Tianxing Entertainment with Lin Mo's songs. Tianxing Entertainment is just helping him with production and distribution; Lin Chuyan himself is not signed to Tianxing Entertainment."
"Big Wawa, what is the relationship between Lin Mo and Lin Chuyan... I'd like to know that too. I asked last night, and Lin Chuyan's exact words were that they have a very good relationship. How good, exactly, I don't know."
"Why does it sound so gay... Based on my years of experience in the entertainment industry, Lin Chuyan shouldn't be gay."
"How do you know that... Don't ask; if you ask, it's a man's intuition."
Ignoring some barrage comments joking that he and Lin Chuyan had a fling, Wawa continued to chat.
"Big Wawa, 'rebirth' is really good... I can tell you responsibly that all four songs are masterpieces and are very good. Of course, some people definitely won't believe it, but that doesn't matter; you'll know when you listen to them."
"You'd be better off praising Lin Mo than praising Lin Chuyan... Hey, I actually have the right to speak on this. After all, I listened to all the songs last night. Put it this way: Lin Mo is indeed very good, but Lin Chuyan is absolutely the person most suited to sing his songs!"
"Big Wawa has become a fan of Lin Chuyan... You don't say, you really don't say. Let me just say one thing: regarding last night alone, Lin Chuyan's pitch accuracy is definitely in the top three of all the live performances I've ever heard! No hyping, no trashing."
"How much did Tianxing Entertainment and Lin Chuyan pay you... Get lost! People like you are the most boring; you want to splash dirty water on me? What do you take me for? Do you think I look like someone short on money? I get so many copyright royalties every year, would I cover for Lin Chuyan? Your brain is broken! You're purely sick!"
"Breaking news: Big Wawa cried while listening last night... Hey, who are you? Who is this person? Are you a peer? I warn you, don't spread rumors here."
"Thanks to 'Wawa is a big idiot' for the rocket! Love you, brother, brother 666!"
A mini-album that hadn't been released yet, an obscure, has-been idol.
Just like that, it hung on the Weibo trending list for half a day.
It could be said that although Lin Chuyan's EP hadn't been released yet, the buzz had already started.
In fact, there weren't many people evaluating the 'rebirth' EP. After all, it hadn't been released yet, most people hadn't heard it, and they had no way to evaluate it.
More of it was because Ruan Xingyu filmed the MV for him. Many people were curious about what the male artist who collaborated with her looked like, so they started searching for the name Lin Chuyan, then clicked into his Weibo, and started following him.
Lin Chuyan thought about it and started to post his next Weibo.
"Taking in 'rebirth' Heartbroken Boys, Haters get priority. 'rebirth' has no lovers, but it has feelings. If you're really too angry, you can curse me a few times; I'm in a good mood today, I guarantee I won't talk back. A heads-up for those in the front row: cursing is fun, but don't get triggered, okay."
Arrogant, too arrogant!
Haters were scrolling through Weibo today, and the moment they looked up, they could see Lin Chuyan's trending topic, and they were already in a bad mood.
As a result, this guy pulled a stunt like this, and the breath stuck in their chests made them feel like they would suffer internal injuries if they didn't vent it out.
"Bitch!"
"You are truly a bitch! How can you be so bitchy???"
"Don't let me see you on the street, damn it, I'll beat you every time I see you!"
Some people just started cursing continuously.
Lin Chuyan shook his head as he watched. They agreed not to get triggered, so why were they triggered anyway?
However, he did what he said today. He said he wouldn't talk back, so he didn't talk back. He picked out some triggered comments that looked very infuriating and replied to each one wishing them good health.
And some of Ruan Xingyu's fans who didn't know Lin Chuyan at all, especially some girls, were truly confused the moment they entered his Weibo and saw this scene.
What is this situation?
Playing on Weibo for so many years, I've never seen this happen in the Chinese Entertainment Industry?
But this guy is really handsome. It seems like with my Xingxing... if it's just filming an MV, they are quite a good match.
Whatever, let's click follow first!
