607: Chapter 607 An Invitation from the Bureau of Culture and Tourism

This book, which could be called dry in content, became interesting because of Lin Chuyan's own legendary experience and the assist from Director Chu Dong.

Mainly, although Yanzi has done many awesome things in the past few years and his professional ability is maxed out, in the eyes of many, he is still a young man who goes his own way and is sharp-edged.

And what happened? Director Chu Dong revealed his conversation with Lin Chuyan in the preface, which completely stunned everyone.

"If the domestic film and television industry can flourish from now on, then I wouldn't mind retiring immediately."

"Audiences need more good movies; that is the most important top priority."

Wait, that's not your usual persona.

So, beneath your young and vigorous exterior, you were hiding such a heart full of great love?

So, you didn't care about being misunderstood, and you didn't mind being scolded; you only had one thought in your heart: to let the audience watch good movies?

Damn, thinking about it this way, Haters really deserve to die!

Could it really be as Director Chu Dong described, that scolding Haters is "lowering one's eyebrows to face the accusations of a thousand people," while serving the general audience is "willingly bowing down like an ox for the children"?

Is Lin Chuyan just a good person who is clear about what he loves and hates, and has a firm stance?

Some netizens questioned it immediately: Could this be a manufactured persona?

Could Lin Chuyan have said this on purpose just to achieve the current effect of everyone praising him?

Is it actually just marketing, just pandering to the audience to gain a good reputation?

Isn't that possible?

But this argument was immediately refuted.

No, no, no, a persona can be marketed, but don't think netizens are that easy to fool.

Many things are not isolated events; you have to look at them comprehensively to draw the correct conclusion.

Netizens started digging up Lin Chuyan's words and deeds again to re-examine this person.

The question arises: What kind of person is Lin Chuyan, really?

The content of the new book was too profound, and netizens didn't care, but one topic rushed to the hot search again.

#Lin Chuyan In Your Eyes#

Clicking in, a large number of netizens were discussing passionately.

[Netizens' memories are indeed limited; don't forget Yanyu Foundation, okay?

When Lin Chuyan was exposed for tax evasion, what was the result?

Not only was it proven false, but it was also dug up that he had been silently doing charity work all along.

You think he is flashy everywhere, but the Lin Chuyan in my eyes can also be very low-key.]

[Wasn't it dug up last time that Lin Chuyan recorded an encouraging video for a little girl?

Forgotten that too?

The Lin Chuyan in my eyes is just a gentle and kind young man.

All his thunderous methods were only given to those "bad guys."

Is there a problem with repaying grievances with uprightness?

Don't be too much of a saint, okay!]

[To be reasonable, Lin Chuyan hasn't made any bad movies since his comeback, right?

His private life has no parts that can be criticized either.

Some netizens are just obsessed with hating him.]

There was a lot of discussion among netizens, and the output from big influencers was not small either.

Like Entertainment Reporter Xiao Ba, who fired off parallel sentences, building up momentum and leading the topic once again.

[If you think this sentence said by Director Chu Dong is Lin Chuyan bragging, and you think don't look at what Lin Chuyan said, look at what he did... simple, then look at the solid things Lin Chuyan has been doing in the past and present.

He said Director Deng Yu's movie wasn't good, so he filmed "la la land" and won Best Director at The Oscars.

He said the current entertainment industry lacks culture, so he founded Spark Film, planning to train people personally.

He said he wanted to build a mythology universe and a mega theme park, so we saw Yanyu Animation and "ne zha".

He said the audience needs more good movies, so he wrote "three-region film set notes," which received rave reviews, with many people saying it was very inspiring and helpful.

Such a Lin Chuyan is worth protecting and cherishing by all conscientious audiences.

Not only for that mythology universe that countless people are looking forward to, but also because the entertainment industry is too lacking in literary and artistic workers like Lin Chuyan who have strength, culture, ideals, and conscience.]

It's no wonder they are professionals; they listed four things about Lin Chuyan, which corresponded to the subsequent "strength, culture, ideals, and conscience," and finally positioned Lin Chuyan as a "literary and artistic worker," not anything else, which seemed very accurate and appropriate.

And only then did everyone realize that Lin Chuyan was no longer the person he was when he first debuted.

Or perhaps, he had never changed, but his abilities had grown, and he could do more and more things?

In this matter, the Haters felt the deepest: I treated him like that, but he treated me like this?

Or, is there a possibility that he never cared about the people who hated him at all?

In his eyes, there was only the concept of "audience," and what he had always wanted to do was just to let the audience watch good movies?

The more Haters thought about it, the more uncomfortable they felt: I am also an audience member; why have I been opposing someone who "wholeheartedly considers problems from the audience's standpoint" all this time?

Haters began to recall: This sentence from Director Chu Dong should be true.

Looking back further, when Director Deng Yu made a big flop, countless artists praised it, but only Lin Chuyan stood on the side of the audience, bravely saying "I don't like it, it's not good, it's uncomfortable"; more recently, Lin Chuyan also publicly expressed his opinion at the "la la land" seminar, where he directly set the tone, saying "The reason audiences don't like watching movies is because there are too few good movies, it's not the audience's fault"...

At this moment, many Haters finally realized: Brother, big brother, is it too late for me to turn over a new leaf now?

Of course, there were still some Haters who were obsessed: What are you pretending for?

You have a way of buying people's hearts, and idiots just believe it?

Leaving aside the content of the book, not to mention whether Director Chu Dong added artistic embellishment, even if Lin Chuyan said it on the phone at that time, do you think he said this without other purposes?

Don't you feel disgusted?

However, some things are useless no matter how much you quibble.

Regarding the question of "What kind of person is Lin Chuyan really," after Official Media stepped in, it was finally settled.

The wording of Official Media was even more excessive than Lin Chuyan's fans—after all, fans would still be afraid of being scolded for mindless praise, but Official Media really didn't consider such problems...

Something about always harboring a heart of innocence, using knowledge to feed back into the industry, and being willing to be a "paving stone" for the cultivation of film and television talent; this spirit of selfless dedication is a vivid portrayal of literary and artistic workers rooting themselves in the people and serving the people.

Something about having the big picture of "national films" in mind, shouldering the cultural mission, this kind of cultural consciousness of "letting Chinese stories move the world," and the responsibility of "fighting for the right to speak for Chinese film and television on the international stage" are admirable.

Something about being willing to be a "knowledge ferryman," this spirit of dedication of "success does not have to be with me, but success will definitely have me" lit a lamp for young filmmakers to illuminate their career paths.

Something about true artistic creation always putting the audience in the highest position in the heart; this sobriety and persistence of Lin Chuyan is a spiritual treasure that the industry lacks.

Something about the breadth of mind of "leaving experience to the industry and difficulties to oneself," which highlights the original intention of literary and artistic workers to serve the overall situation and never fade.

Finally, they laid their cards on the table, explicitly praising Lin Chuyan as a true literary and artistic worker.

Calling on practitioners in the entertainment industry to learn from Lin Chuyan...

Pampering, just pampering, pampering to the sky, pampering without limits.

Lin Chuyan didn't know what to say either, to be honest, he was still a bit guilty.

But Wu Yue was right: "You are so dutiful and so presentable, who would they pamper if not you? We can handle even the greatest honors, no need to worry about nothing."

"Huh? Am I dutiful?"

Lin Chuyan never expected the word "dutiful" could fall on him.

"Everything you do is what others dare not do. Those things that others do secretly that damage artistic ethics, you haven't touched a single one."

Lin Chuyan touched his chin: "Fine! Thinking that Xingxing and I will likely have to keep singing "unforgettable tonight"... excluding those future plans, brother, do you think our career has reached the top?"

"Not yet, I came because I have some new news to tell you."

Wu Yue chuckled, "As the saying goes, wealth without returning home is like wearing brocade in the night. I just received an invitation from your hometown, um, that is, the Culture and Tourism Bureau of Guangdong Province."

"An invitation? What invitation?"

"Provincial Culture and Tourism Image Ambassador."
