A hardworking, upwardly striving young actress meets a big movie star who is a hooligan on the inside.
Ye Chu is a stable actor in the entertainment industry, not super famous but not fading ...
Shortly after the film's promotional campaign ended, news of the premiere of "Me and Her" was released, much to the delight of eager fans.
On the day of the premiere, there was naturally a Q&A session with reporters. The lead actors lined up and waited to answer questions. A photo of them was taken and uploaded online, and netizens joked that it looked just like themselves waiting for their teachers or superiors to ask them questions in the office.
"I'd like to ask Mr. Gu, having collaborated with Ms. Ye twice, and both times playing lovers, did you ever develop feelings for her while filming?"
"Wow..." Upon hearing the reporter's question, the fans present exclaimed in surprise, and everyone was waiting for Gu Yu's answer.
“I’ve acted in many dramas, and I’ve played many lover roles.” Gu Yu smiled gently as she spoke, “If I had to say, I can tell you that during our time filming, everyone in our crew could feel that Ye Chu was the kind of person who could be a good wife. As for who will be so lucky, we don’t know.”
He didn't give everyone a definite yes or no answer, instead praising Ye Chu lightly and then saying, "I don't know either." To the fans, this would automatically be interpreted as "it's impossible between me and her, give the opportunity to someone else," when in reality he made no promises.
Those who truly understood the implications were probably only colleagues and a few reporters. Even if they knew the other party was giving a vague answer, since Gu Yu's words were watertight, asking further would only make them seem aggressive.
So the reporters turned their attention to Ye Chu: "What about Ms. Ye? Does she have feelings for Actor Gu?"
Ye Chu blinked: "It's hard not to be tempted, isn't it? After all, everyone knows how charming Actor Gu is."
"Wow!" The fans in the audience gasped. The reporter pressed on, "So, Ms. Ye admits that she developed feelings for Actor Gu while filming?"
"That's not right." Ye Chu shook her head and gave the reporters' cameras a bright smile: "As a fan of Actor Gu, how could I say I don't like my idol? I think it's not just me, but all the fans here probably do too. But unfortunately, I'm not a girlfriend fan, I'm a career fan, the kind who wants to see Actor Gu deliver a stellar performance and win awards."
"Ahhhhh!" The fans screamed excitedly. This was the first time Ye Chu had publicly admitted to being a fan of Gu Yu. One excited fan even shouted, "Ahhhh, I'm a fan of Gu Yu's career too! Go, brother!"
Everyone present burst into laughter, and the reporters continued to ask other questions. The subsequent questions were not particularly interesting and were quite standard. Thanks to Ye Chu's answers, tomorrow's report will be titled "Ye Chu Admits to Being a Fan of Actor Gu's Career," which will definitely be a catchy headline.
As the reporters expected, when the report came out, it sparked a wave of online polls about the types of fans of Gu Yingdi and confessions of fans' experiences in following their idols.
"I'm also a fan of my brother's career. I just want to see him act and win awards. Ms. Ye Chu's words really resonate with me, hahaha."
"Girlfriend fan here, Miss Ye Chu is right, Gu Yingdi's fans must like Gu Yingdi, otherwise what's the point of being a fan, hahaha."
"What a joke, you're hilarious. As a female fan, I admit it: I like him because I like his body, I'm shameless!"
"I only realized how many people are career-oriented fans like me during this category poll. I always thought they were all girlfriend fans, hahaha. Hey lady, don't be envious, chicken coop warning!"
"Let's go home, back to the beautiful beginnings. [Image of a chicken coop]"
"That's hilarious! I'm not going back. Don't lock me up. Let me have fun."
"I suddenly wondered, could Miss Ye Chu be using an alternate account to infiltrate our group?"
"Great idea upstairs, I think it's possible. Maybe one of the girls yelling 'Ahhh' is actually the real girl's alternate account, hahaha."
"What's wrong with you guys? Shouldn't we be discussing the movie? Stop talking about chicken coops and go read the reasons why the ladies who attended the premiere recommended it!"
This comment reminded everyone that, oh right, they almost forgot to check out the movie.
"Haha, this is hilarious, I almost forgot the important thing. Since you're already here, could you please give me directions, @渝鱼与玉?"
Yu Yu Yu is a wealthy and career-oriented fan of Gu Yu, as all of Gu Yu's fans know. She never misses Gu Yu's live events and posts on Weibo to provide directions, comments, and analyses.
"Here it comes! The rich lady's live Weibo update may be late, but it will never be absent."
"Rich lady, I'm back again. Let me see what I wrote this time."
Yu Yu and Yu's Weibo update was just a short while ago: "I couldn't calm down for a long time after the premiere. I had insomnia last night, so I deleted and revised this Weibo post."
"Me and Her" records a beautiful relationship, that's for sure. Many people online have told the story of Mr. Li and his lover, and I've heard about it too, but the feeling of hearing others' stories is different from actually witnessing it firsthand. After the premiere yesterday, my heart was pounding all the way home. I realized how they got along back then, how their relationship started, and how many beautiful things happened between them that only they knew about.
All of these things cannot be known by listening to others.
But then I looked up the news and found out that Chengjie died in a car accident five years ago… I was devastated. Their love was so beautiful, so beautiful that those who knew it couldn't accept that it didn't end well. So I couldn't sleep last night.
After watching "Me and Her," I believe in love again. If you also want to know their story and understand their real-life relationship, you absolutely must watch this movie.
Here, fish and jade meet.
"Ah, I feel like the rich woman is both happy and sad."
"After reading the rich woman's Weibo post, I'm sure I'll go to the cinema to see it. I want to witness this love story with my own eyes."
"What you hear and what you actually see and feel are different, so I will definitely go to the cinema."
"I really love what the rich woman said: 'I believe in love again.' I'll definitely go see it!"
"Since everyone is going to see it, I'll give you directions here @ZhangWuyong and @LiKan. The movie will be released on February 18th. This is the Weibo account of the director and screenwriter (one of the original protagonists of the story). [Link] This is a compilation of Li Cheng's love story by netizens."
"Thanks upstairs. I'll go and catch up on the movie before it's released."
"As a lucky fan who attended the premiere, I can say that what the rich lady wanted to say is also what I wanted to say. And I'll add one more point: there's a kissing scene! A very intense one! It doesn't look like it was done with a camera trick! It was really exciting!"
"Wow, that was so exciting! Thank you, sis!"
"I'm a little jealous. I also want to kiss my brother. I'll secretly do it later, hehehe."
And so, amidst great anticipation, on February 18th, every theater showing "Me and Her" was packed to capacity.
