After the live interview program ended, speculation about the relationship between Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao became popular on almost all entertainment platforms.
This time, not only the CP fans of Dragon Island were eating sugar, even a group of marketing accounts began to dig and archaeological, from the first program that the two collaborated on, "Go, Eat! 》, and went all the way to the most recent Weibo posts by the two, and almost all the content that could be found for research was dug out.
However, there will never be a lack of topics in the entertainment industry.
In August, as "Dawn City" officially ended its screening, discussions about Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao's relationship gradually subsided and disappeared from the public eye again.
Immediately afterwards, in September, Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao appeared together again and participated in a charity variety show as flying guests. The two of them cooperated very well in the variety show, and their interaction was casual and natural, which once again sparked discussion.
In October, Jiang Dao made a rare appearance on Weibo and posted a short video of him and Zidan playing games in an obstacle course. Less than two minutes after the video was posted, someone unearthed a photo Chu Yinlong had once posted, confirming that the obstacle course was located in Chu Yinlong’s private villa.
Under the influx of wave after wave of information, Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao's relationship gradually became an unspoken answer among everyone.
"Think about it, sisters. Given Long Dad's temper, if he and Jiang Dao were really just friends, would he not say it? Would he allow those ambiguous speculations to continue to exist? I don't think so. Don't forget how Long Dad fought back when he was dragged into a scandal before [doge]"
"Reply: Indeed. Looking at the interaction between Long Dad and Kojima on Weibo, and then looking at his interaction with other artists, and the eye contact between the two in the recent interview, I really think it is no different from being public! [tears]"
“Reply: The atmosphere between them, really, unless someone tells me one day that they are brothers, I think this is love!”
"Ah? Is there anyone who would still doubt it now? Isn't it already publicly acknowledged that they are together?"
"Reply: Although, they haven't admitted it in person yet [doge]"
"Reply: It's just like you who secretly fell in love without the knowledge of your teachers and parents [funny]"
"There's still a month until Dragon Dad's birthday. I'll see if I can wait for an announcement! [doge]"
"Reply: Let's wait together!"
"Reply: Just ask @江岛 what birthday gift you are going to give to Dragon Dad, hahaha!"
Soon, it is November 11th again.
Early in the morning of that day, there was movement on Chu Yinlong's Weibo - this time, the birthday gift he posted almost instantly ignited the entire entertainment industry.
"A gift from @江岛. This kid is too naughty, he needs to be punished. [Picture]"
The picture shows a high-end silk tie, and as usual the brand logo is hidden. However, what is different is that there is a bright red lip print in the middle of the hem of this light silver-gray tie, and there is a note next to it: Happy two years anniversary of first kiss!
Jiang Dao responded immediately to the post: "Do you like it?"
Chu Yinlong didn't reply, but he gave a thumbs up.
After that, the entire comment section collapsed:
"What the hell!!! Two years since our first kiss?! Two! Weeks! Anniversary!!!"
"So the bowl of noodles you had on your birthday two years ago was made by Jiang Dao?! That was breakfast! You two spent the night together two years ago?!"
"What did I miss? The two-year anniversary of our first kiss??? Dragon Dad, you kept it a secret from us!"
"Aaaaaah I'm dead! It's been two years since you two got together?!"
"Is it that you two have been together for two years, or that you filmed a kissing scene in Dawn City two years ago? I'm a little confused, let me be quiet!!!"
Almost instantly, the topic #Chu Yin Longjiang Island publicly announces relationship# became a hot search topic.
Then, Tang Yao and Zhou Wei jointly sent a congratulatory message, oh no, congratulatory message; Jing Yu seemed to finally be able to have fun freely, and directly sent a congratulatory Weibo to the Dragon Island Super Topic; even director Mu Zhixing, who usually has no voice on Weibo, specially posted a Weibo to tag the two of them, and released a clip of the behind-the-scenes footage of "Dawn City" that has never been exposed before -
The clips were all about Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao's daily interactions on the set. Everything seemed normal, but the two of them would always secretly hold fingers or exchange glances and smile at each other in the corner when no one was paying attention. They thought no one saw them, but they were caught by the camera that was deliberately left on nearby.
Below the video, Chu Yinlong was furious: "Director Mu, why did you secretly take this video?!"
This reply was instantly followed by thousands of levels of “Hahahahaha” from fans, and it’s showing a trend of getting higher and higher.
"Dad Long! Your image has collapsed! You actually secretly hooked your fingers with Kojima with your hands behind your back!!!"
"What kind of adorable couple are these, hahaha!"
"Kojima actually used his left hand to eat in order to hold hands with Long Dad under the table. Did you think no one noticed?! You two are so careless!"
I don’t know if it was Director Mu who took the lead or for some other reason, but after that, many behind-the-scenes footage of Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao on the set were released by netizens who wished to remain anonymous - some of them even included outdoor footage of "Red Owl Operation", such as the scene where Jiang Dao went into battle with an injury and Chu Yinlong’s overwhelming desire to protect him led to several NGs.
That evening, Jiang Dao posted on his blog: "I never expected that a good public display of affection would be turned into a public display of old scores."
Comment section below:
"This is the price of showing affection [doge]"
"This is the price of hiding your relationship from your fans for two years before making it public [laughs]"
"In the name of the Dragon Island natives, I demand that you give me all the candies that you have secretly hidden for the past two years! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you! [Tears]"
…
From mid-November to the end of December, the news of Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao's public relationship was talked about a lot, until it was overshadowed by the Christmas celebrations on major platforms, and then it finally died down.
Until the beginning of April of the following year, the most influential ceremony in the Chinese film industry, "Chinese Craftsmanship", was held in Yan City.
When "Red Owl Operation" participated in the ceremony last year, Jiang Dao played only a small role and was not even nominated for the Best Supporting Actor, so he had no chance to appear in the ceremony.
This year, "Dawn City" participated in the exhibition and directly won several nominations for "Chinese Craftsmanship", and in the "Best Actor" award, Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao were nominated at the same time.
Chu Yinlong helped Jiang Dao fix his tie, raised his hand and gently scratched the tip of the big man's nose: "Don't be nervous. Don't you care about these things? Why are you still nervous?"
Jiang Dao pursed his lips and calmed down: "I don't care whether I can win the award, but I care whether I can continue to stand with you. If you leave me too far behind, I..."
The rest of the words were swallowed up by a gentle kiss.
After a long time, the kiss ended reluctantly.
Chu Yinlong bit Jiang Dao's lips gently, smiled and left, stroked the corner of Jiang Dao's mouth with his fingertips, and whispered: "Whether you win the award or not, you are the best in my heart. They can't see your progress, but I remember it. You are still young, even if you can't get in this time, there will always be opportunities in the future. I'll wait for you."
After saying that, he picked up the lipstick from the dressing table, unscrewed it, and pinched Jiangdao's chin to touch up his makeup.
Jiang Dao looked at Chu Yinlong's serious expression and said with a smile: "Your lipstick is smudged too. Why are you kissing me when your makeup and hair are done? Does your lipstick taste good?"
Chu Yinlong said smoothly: "The lipstick is average, but you are delicious."
Jiang Dao's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at him.
Chu Yinlong was speechless after he finished speaking: "Tsk, it's all because of you that I was led astray!"
Jiang Dao laughed out loud, and the slight tension in his heart suddenly disappeared.
At 5:30 pm, the "Chinese Craftsmanship" Film Festival officially opened.
Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao arrived at the venue in the same car, and this was the first time the two walked the red carpet side by side.
All around, flash lights suddenly lit up, flickering, accompanied by the repeated clicking sounds of shutters.
Jiang Dao, wearing a neat suit, followed Chu Yinlong, but was a little annoyed by the flashing lights in his eyes and the noises in his ears. However, he had to suppress the discomfort in his heart and stopped in the middle of the red carpet in line with Chu Yinlong's pace, waiting for the media to take pictures.
Suddenly, Chu Yinlong took a half step back, wrapped Jiang Dao's fingertips into his palm with the hand hanging by his side, and held it with a little force.
The flashes and shutter sounds suddenly became more frequent.
The anxiety in Jiangdao's heart seemed to be suddenly calmed by a clear spring.
He turned to look at Chu Yinlong, only to see that the other party was also looking at him, with a look of concern and comfort in his eyes.
Next, Chu Yinlong never stopped walking. He held Jiang Dao's hand and walked gracefully across the red carpet and entered the venue.
The moment he was out of the media's sight, Jiang Dao heard Chu Yinlong whisper in his ear: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The next second, the two stepped into the venue and were once again captured by lights and cameras.
They didn't let go of each other's hands until they sat down.
Jiang Dao was completely relaxed by now and couldn't help but let out a low laugh.
Chu Yinlong asked: "What are you laughing at?"
Jiang Dao lowered his voice: "I feel like it's going to be on the trending search again."
As he spoke, he shook their joined hands.
Chu Yinlong smiled and then let go of his hand.
The China Craftsmanship Awards Ceremony officially began only after all invited guests were seated.
The opening speech for the Craftsmanship Award was as concise and clear as ever. After the speech, the ceremony started with the Best Cinematography Award, played the corresponding trailers of the nominated films, and then announced the awards.
As expected, "Dawn City" quickly won two technical awards - "Best Cinematography" and "Best Art Direction". After the first half of the performance, in the behind-the-scenes awards that followed, "Dawn City" won the "Best Original Score" and "Best Director" awards.
The second half of the performance is over, and the highlight for the actors finally arrives.
Since Jiang Dao had already participated in "Operation Red Owl" last year and failed to receive any award nominations, he missed out on the "Best Newcomer" award.
After the "Best Supporting Actress" and "Best Supporting Actor" were announced, the venue quickly began playing movie clips related to the Best Actor nominees.
Competing with "Dawn City" for the award are two art films. The performances of the two male protagonists are also fascinating enough. One of them is a new generation powerful actor who is famous for his crying scenes. It is said that every time he sheds tears on the screen, he can make the audience sad. He has been nominated for Best Actor several times before.
After watching the film clip, Jiang Dao tilted his head and whispered, "I think you are still steady."
Chu Yinlong curled the corners of his mouth and gently patted the back of Jiang Dao's hand, signaling him not to speak.
After all the nominated film clips were played, a veteran actress walked onto the stage amid applause from the crowd.
"Next, I will announce the winner of the Best Actor Award." She opened the envelope in her hand, pulled out the card, and smiled elegantly, "The winner of the Best Actor Award of the Craftsmanship Award is Chu Yinlong from "Dawn City"!"
The lights and cameras immediately focused on Chu Yinlong's position.
Then, another voice came from the stage: "And——"Aurora City" Jiangdao!"
At this moment, Jiang Dao's gaze was still on Chu Yinlong, his eyes full of smiles. He was still applauding for his award and did not hear the second half of the presenter's words at all.
"Go quickly!" He urged Chu Yinlong, "Why are you standing there?"
Chu Yinlong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He straightened the hem of his suit and reached out to Jiang Dao.
Jiang Dao was stunned: "Huh?"
He had never heard that someone could bring a partner on stage to receive such an award.
At this time, someone shouted to him, "You two won the award together! Two leading male actors and two best actor winners!"
Then came Tang Yao's voice from not far away: "Xiaodao, are you so happy that you're stupid?"
Jiang Dao turned around blankly and looked at the big screen behind the award ceremony stage.
I saw his name and Chu Yinlong's name printed side by side on it, with gold letters on a black background, and it was extremely clear.
Chu Yinlong couldn't wait, so he leaned over and grabbed Jiang Dao's hand, took him up and walked towards the stage.
There was a sudden burst of warm applause at the scene.
Walking from his seat to the stage, Jiang Dao had quickly calmed down thanks to his more than ten years of experience on the battlefield.
He smiled, politely took the trophy and microphone handed to him by the presenter, and then recited the acceptance speech he had prepared long ago word for word and with great emotion.
Then he handed the microphone to Chu Yinlong.
Chu Yinlong took it with a smile and began to speak.
Under the dazzling spotlight of the stage, Jiang Dao's eyes never left Chu Yinlong's face.
He looked at the man standing next to him, looked at his smiling mouth and eyebrows, watched his lips open and close, watched him say the last word, and watched him slowly turn his face.
Their eyes met and their gazes merged.
Then he heard Chu Yinlong's deep and determined voice: "...I am also very fortunate to be able to stand here with my beloved and leave some traces of ours in this world."
——Proof that we existed, walked side by side, and loved each other.
