Chapter 147
Not only did Daxia have famous people in its history, but other cultures and countries also had the origins and inheritance of surnames in their history, including Chinese and English surnames.
The "Hundred Family Surnames" special feature also lists some great people and celebrities in history for viewers with English surnames.
Compared to the Great Xia, viewers with English surnames traced back their ancestors and found that everyone seemed to be even more closely related than the Xia people. Why? Just like English is not as diverse as the complex Xia language, there are fewer surnames. If we trace back to the source, we are truly a family behind closed doors, and we all "shared" ancestors thousands of years ago.
[Another hellish joke, continuing on. Our genes may have come from the same primitive monkey clan. What I really want to say is that even if we are of different races and surnames, we are still a family separated by thousands of generations!]
There's nothing wrong with saying family. We have different skin colors, cultures, and languages, but we're still a loving family.
【Jiutian merges, welcome back everyone, cheers!】
[Cheers to Cyber, don’t leave until you’re drunk! ]
[Wait, did everyone forget that two of the Star family members haven't returned yet? LOL.]
[…Ahem, wait for Zhu Tian and Jun Tian’s family to come back, then we’ll do it again!]
Huan Xu looked at the lively and cheerful scene on Starnet, where people were clinking glasses with people they knew and didn't know, and the corners of his lips curled up. Below his Starnet, there were also many drunk fans who came to toast him.
[I did it, Director Huan, please do as you please.]
"Brother, let's go. To be honest, I, Long Batian, will never submit to anyone except you, Director Huan. "
The child is still young, so he's not allowed to drink. What? Oh, Director Huan, my son offers you a glass of orange juice. He wants to ask Uncle Huan quietly, "I heard that the ancestors of the Ying family next door are very good at making promotional videos and films. I wonder if Uncle Huan can also make some good films for our ancestors of the Liu family." Children's words are innocent, so Director Huan, "Don't" take them seriously!
[The words above awakened me from my dream. I'll be frank, Brother Huan, Director Huan, God Huan, my ancestor of the Zhu family just appeared in my dream. He said that he's a little jealous of the Qin Emperor next door. I want to ask Director Huan if he has any plans to shoot a "Da Ming" movie.]
[The devil whispers, "The old man has a bad temper. If he can't wait any longer, he'll come to you in your dream. Don't say I didn't tell you in advance."]
[Pointing his finger, there's no such thing as too many movies, or too few trailers, let's have a little more or less. Also, Director Huan is definitely not partial, he loves every one of the ancestors deeply, right? He must be, nodding!]
Our sister Zhao said, let Director Huan take charge.
Huan Xu: ...This is definitely not a threat, right?
"The Great Qin" was finally released as scheduled, and the proper attention was given to Brother Zheng. Director Huan could also sleep peacefully without worrying about his ancestors "beheading" him in his dreams.
Unexpectedly, things went in a direction that Huan Xu himself had never expected, and the boomerang finally hit him again.
That night, Huan Dao had another dream.
In the dream, accompanied by the sound of iron chains clashing, the Black and White Impermanence acted as a courier on their way to take souls away, and gave him a dozen tea party invitations from the "real underworld".
When Huan Dao saw the name of the inviter, his breath stopped. When the Black and White Impermanence left, they left a profound reminder: "It's not the lack of wealth that worries us, but the inequality."
After waking up from the dream, Huan Xu rubbed his slightly painful temples and fell silent again. After a moment, Director Huan, who had truly experienced the "unscientific" incident, finally chose to follow his heart.
The main reason is that our ancestors were so wise and powerful that they must all be introduced to the younger generations in the interstellar world!
It doesn't matter if there is no time to shoot all the videos. Just shoot the "Wise Ruler" series of promotional videos first, dig out small holes, and when Director Huan has time, slowly fill them with soil and plant trees until the seedlings grow into a forest.
Therefore, in response to the enthusiastic requests of the StarCraft audience, Director Huan worked overtime and rushed to produce several videos within half a month after the broadcast of Daqin.
The wind rises and the clouds fly, my power spreads across the country and I return to my hometown - Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang.
Wherever the sun and moon shine, and wherever the rivers flow, all is Han territory - Emperor Xuan of Han, Liu Xun.
Since ancient times, people have valued China and despised foreigners, but I alone love them all the same - Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin.
If you want to make your family peaceful, you must first make your country peaceful - Empress Wu Zetian.
How can I allow others to snore beside my bed? - Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin.
Wherever the map is drawn, that is where I graze my horses - Genghis Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty.
He killed millions of soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the sword on his waist is still stained with blood - Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
I wish my barbarian enemies will be my enemies again in the next life - Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty Xuanye
And the initial promotional video:
I am the First Emperor, and future generations will count me from the third and second generations to the tenth generation, and my name will be passed down forever - Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng!
At the end of the video series, Director Huan also carefully and thoughtfully marked a line of words: To be continued...
Director Huan picked up the shovel and, in response to the audience's own request, directly shoveled out a "small universe" belonging to our ancestors.
The audience who were noisy before didn't expect Director Huan to be so awesome. Without saying much, they clicked on the video with excited hearts and trembling hands.
One by one, emperors, some domineering, some majestic, some wise, and some rough, appear on the scene. Through Director Huan's usual high-level editing and accompanied by high-spirited background music, we quickly watch the magnificent lives of these emperors.
If I were to describe the audience’s viewing experience in one word, it would be: exciting!
It was so exciting that I couldn't take it all in. My hands unconsciously clenched into fists, blood rushed to my brain, and some viewers even almost forgot to breathe.
Look, that’s their ancestor. Even if there is no blood relationship, he is still their ancestor!
At this moment, my sense of honor and pride reached its peak. I wanted to go downstairs and run 800 meters to express the ambition that was burning in my heart.
However, after the adrenaline faded slightly and rationality returned, some viewers also discovered the key points of the problem.
It's easy to imagine that Director Huan couldn't possibly produce and release all the content of the series of films in such a short period of time. A simple calculation showed that the audience felt suffocated again.
Director Huan already owed a lot of debts that he hadn't repaid yet, and now there are still two stars that have not been merged, and all the debts have been put after the merger. In other words, if he wants to fill all the large sinkholes in the "Ancestors" series with soil bit by bit, he really has to treat Director Huan like a spinning top, working non-stop for 365 days a year, and producing a film a month. It will take at least a year.
The release of the promotional video of the First Emperor was less than half a month away from the release date, and many viewers were waiting like flowers were about to wither. How many people would have to wait for a whole year?
Oh, by the way, Director Huan also said that it’s to be continued. Not to mention Daxia, the ancestors are all lined up online. In addition, videos of ancestors from other countries will be released one after another. The ones that have been confirmed so far are said to be: Alexander the Great, the Conqueror, Ramses the Pharaoh, Catherine the Great...
Anyway, there are only a lot of pitfalls :-).
[…My mood is a bit complicated at the moment, and I don’t know what to say yet. Let the people downstairs speak first.]
[I'm confused. I'm definitely happy, but there's something a little subtle about it. I pass the microphone downstairs.]
[In other words, I had a blast watching it. The promotional video got me fired up and I couldn't wait to see the feature film. But then nothing happened. Hahahaha, it was all a scam.]
Director Huan spread his hands: "I've given you the promotional video you requested. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
I was wrong, terribly wrong. If I am guilty, please let the law punish me, instead of burying me in a pit from which I may never be able to climb out.
[The longest road I've traveled is Director Huan's routine.]
[Incompetent and furious, gnashing teeth, Director Huan is such a bummer.]
Star viewers, either with anticipation or with eagerness, check in on Director Huan’s Star Blog every day to urge for updates. In this “lively” atmosphere, time slowly passes, and in the blink of an eye it is time for Yangtian Carnival Night.
Yangtian Carnival Night is about to begin. On the starship heading to Yangtian Star, Huan Xu did not act with the Xinghuo people this time. He knew that he had been somewhat unethical in transferring the pressure given to him by the ancestors to countless interstellar spectators, so he ran to President Yan for refuge with a guilty conscience.
After all, this time, even the people in Xinghuo looked at Director Huan with that kind of resentful and tearful look for several days in a row, as if they were looking at a heartless man.
Well, other star directors don't work for several years, leaving the audience to starve and become emaciated. But Director Huan did the opposite, taking out a loan in advance and telling the audience what he was going to shoot long beforehand.
The problem is, it's too early.
In the words of the audience, "Looking at Director Huan now makes me feel itchy, as if I am seeing the rubbish boss in the company who paints me a rosy picture every day and treats me like a slave."
"The nature is different. The rubbish boss really only makes empty promises and never promises promotions or raises. Director Huan is different. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. I've never seen Director Huan promise something and not deliver on it. Now that he's promoted it, he'll definitely film it for everyone in the future. It'll be more exciting than you can imagine!"
"That's the crux of the matter. Such good things are completely predictable, but we just can't see them now. I'm itching inside, like a kitten's claws scratching me. I'm both angry and amused at the same time. Director Huan is so hardworking, actively working overtime to cook for everyone. Can we really criticize such a hardworking chef who is as hardworking as a bee? Not only can we not criticize him, but we should praise him and encourage Director Huan to continue this positive initiative. Then, we'll fall into a vicious cycle of the audience being 'crying with greed'."
"Sister, you're absolutely right. My heart is mixed with sweetness and bitterness. I really love and hate that man. I'm almost going crazy ()"
Although Director Huan caught a black carp, the audience still did not hesitate when it came time to complain and when it came time to take action.
On Yangtian Carnival Night, when the host on the stage announced that the winner of the Best Director of the Year was Director Huan, the fans were already calm.
How should I put it, it's a habit that becomes second nature.
Director Huan is already a star director, especially his experience is different from other star directors. He has won five trophies in two years, and now he has one more. It seems that the difference between 5 and 6 is not that big?
Anyway, regardless of others, on Director Huan's side, they really gave them the illusion that the small gold cups were cabbages and were being sold in bulk.
Wait, how come it’s really wholesale?
When Xuantian Star merged, there were actually only more than two months left until Xuantian Carnival Night.
So, when Director Huan finished filming two films to welcome Xuantian, participated in Yangtian's carnival night, and took a three-day vacation with her boyfriend at a music festival on Yangtian Star, she received an invitation to the red carpet again.
Although Xuantian Carnival Night is only two months away from the release of "The Tomb Raiders" and only one month away from the release of "The Qin Empire", the people of Xuantian Star have already made a great wish to let Director Huan see their deep love.
Such a small matter as ranking is not a problem for this group of courageous Xuantian people.
Before the Nine Stars merged, "Man Jiang Hong" could win a trophy on its own. Now that they have merged, if they have too few trophies, how can they have the face to continue asking Director Huan to make movies for them in the future!
The grumpy brothers and sisters of Xuantianxing made a harsh threat. If they didn't help Director Huan break the record, they would cultivate their moral character for a year, not go to the gym every day, buy dictionaries from the bookstore and memorize them at home. Even if they feel like playing snowballs again within a year, they won't be able to go to their good friend Xiongxiong to play snowball fights!
This is a really vicious curse.
With great awareness, the audience of Xuantian started a vigorous battle for the list. Although the audiences of Yangtian, Biantian, Yantian and other stars who merged before Xuantian felt a little regretful afterwards, why didn't they think of using this method to prove their deep love for Director Huan when they merged their stars before!
Even though they felt a little regretful, they were also excited by the enthusiasm of Brother Xuantian and the other sisters.
"Brothers and sisters, come on, cheer for Director Huan and Brother Zheng!"
"Ahhh! Tremble under the iron hoof of the Great Qin, you six nations!"
"It's not six nations anymore, it's seven stars now, cat poking its head out jpg."
"No matter what it is, kill them all. Show me Zheng Ge's face on the public screen."
But soon, the audience above discovered, hey hey hey, this is so strange, where are the enemies.
I looked around and saw that all the teammates were cheering for the dangerous and charming ancestor.
"So we were searching for the enemy in the void before?"
"Our brother Zheng is indeed the most popular person of all time, with a cold face and sunglasses."
At Xuantianxing Carnival Night, the best film of the year, "Da Qin" won another golden trophy for Director Huan with its unstoppable momentum, and the number of votes it received set a new record in the history of Carnival Night!
Although it was due to the merger of the Seven Stars, the cliff-like number of votes also proved Huan Dao's appeal and showed that even after thousands of years of time and space, Zheng Ge still had a strong personal charm and the commanding power of an emperor through the ages, and no one dared to disobey.
[In other words, without realizing it, Director Huan already has seven small golden cups in his hands?]
If it weren't for An Shen suppressing him, wouldn't Huan Dao have set a new record? He would be tied with An Shen for the most Little Gold Cup winners of this era.
Although Director Huan still ranks second in trophy count, he has also broken a new record for the youngest age to win seven Gold Cups. If Director Huan continues to win smaller Gold Cups, this age limit will likely continue to rise, until there's no room for future directors to break the age record.
[To future directors: Please, Director Huan, show some mercy and love.]
In a blink of an eye, it has been more than a year since the merger of Haotianxing. Last year, when Haotian merged, Director Huan made a tear-jerking "healing" animal art film "Guide Dogs", which stole the tears of countless audiences and also helped him win the Haotian Best Film Award of the Year. It was also the first Little Gold Cup won by Director Huan, and thus started Director Huan's road to becoming a god.
This year, the Best Film Award at Haotian Carnival Night once again went to Cangtianxing, which has already been recognized by the Seven Stars.
Life is like the sea—mountains and rivers, nothing more than that. (Note)
The quality of An Shen is as reassuring as ever, with the same use of super-long shots, beautiful composition, and warm healing style. Compared with the shocking tear-jerking "Guide Dog", An Shen's film is a little quieter. After watching it, the impetuous hearts of adults will unconsciously calm down slowly. However, when you come to your senses, you will find that a tear has quietly flowed from the corner of your eye.
In the play, Director An also creatively added many modern and contemporary poems from the mother planet. Although they do not strictly follow the fixed language form and rhythm like the ancient poems of the mother planet, they also have their own characteristics, are more free and vivid, and also have the beauty and style of the mother planet's postmodern culture.
The presence of these modern poems has also improved the overall quality of the film, and many verses have been excerpted and appreciated by young people.
During the interview, Director An also revealed some interesting stories behind the scenes: "The script of Rensheng Haihai was actually written long before the merger with Haotian. It was originally prepared by me to welcome Haotian's return. However, it was never filmed because I felt that the script still needed some improvement, but I couldn't tell exactly where it was at the time."
"I also want to thank Director Huan again. At that time, Director Huan broke into the director circle with his Li Shangyin trilogy. After watching it, I was deeply shocked and inspired. I started to edit and revise the script, and finally came up with what I think is the best film I have ever made."
“Thank you all for your recognition and affirmation.”
Let’s talk about Huan Xu again. Director An has already won 7 stars of recognition, which makes him the director with the most trophies among all the living directors in the current era.
Throughout the history of Nine Stars, there have been no more than ten directors who have won seven trophies, and no one has achieved the Grand Slam. The highest record is that only one talented director won eight star awards. Until the end, that director did not win the last star trophy. This not only became a lifelong regret for that director, but also a flaw in the history of Nine Stars Entertainment that has not been fulfilled to this day.
Now, An Shen has become the second winner of eight gold cups in the history of Jiutian, and it seems that he is only one step away from the final position. Although this step may seem like an insurmountable chasm, it also allows the people in the interstellar world to see hope again.
Originally, it was already glorious enough to have an Anxi in this era. Before Huan Xu came into being, no one would have thought that within a century, another genius who amazed the world would appear after Director An.
Moreover, the momentum and speed of his advancement left everyone dumbfounded. If Anxi could still be judged by human standards, then Huan Xu was simply not a human being, but a monster, the kind of monster that seemed to have no bottlenecks and could become infinitely stronger.
After Huan Xu became a star director, Village Netcom's star director Zhong guessed that Huan Xu's goal might not be to become a star director, but to win the Grand Slam. Later, as time went on, seeing that Director Huan had promised to continue actively preparing for the remaining films of the merger of several stars, the rest of the industry gradually realized something.
Until this moment, Huan Xu successfully won the seventh gold cup, and even the audience finally realized that things seemed to be really serious.
I suddenly have a feeling that, just like Brother Zheng, the scenery that Director Huan sees seems different from what we see.
【I also……】
[+1]
When Huan Dao became a Bronze Daoist, I thought his goal was to become a Gold Daoist. When Huan Dao became a Gold Daoist, I thought his goal was to become a Star Daoist. Now it seems that Huan Dao is not in the first or fifth level, but seems to be in the atmosphere.
[What are you talking about above? Stop playing dumb. It's driving me crazy. I want to join in on the conversation. What's wrong with Director Huan? Is there something wrong?]
Let me be direct. Everyone, take a deep breath and don't get too excited. What I'm saying is, Director Xing should just be a small, stage-by-stage goal for Director Huan. It's a process, not the destination. In short, Director Huan is challenging for the Grand Slam!
Grand Slam?! Is that what I thought it meant?!
[That's right, the place where our Huan Dao's sword is pointing is the only throne in the sky that no one has ever ascended.]
Some people were shocked, some suddenly realized, and some were confused and couldn't believe it. After all, they had never thought about it before. That was an achievement that no one had ever achieved since the merger of the Nine Stars.
After Xuantian Carnival Night, Xinghuo Entertainment still opened the live broadcast room to interact with fans according to the old rules. Since they didn’t understand, someone asked questions.
Seeing that a fan finally noticed this question, Huan Xu smiled. Everyone inside and outside the live broadcast room, whether they were Huan Xu's fans or not, was nervously waiting for Director Huan's answer.
No one asked before, and Huan Xu didn't say it on his own initiative. Now that someone has brought it up, there is no need for Huan Xu to hide it.
Under the gaze of countless people, Director Huan nodded slightly and gave an affirmative answer.
The moment Huan Xu nodded, the noisy world seemed to have pressed the pause button. It was absolutely quiet, and after a short period of stillness, it began to boil even more violently.
That night, terms such as #Director Huan bluntly says he is going for the Grand Slam#, #Director Huan has the stars and the sea in his eyes#, #He wants to be the only king#, and #Director Huan challenges the only throne# quickly became popular searches on Jiuxing, with countless views, reposts, and comments. Even Zhu Tianxing and Jun Tianxing, who did not merge, did not miss the excitement this time, and stayed awake all night because of Director Huan's lofty ambitions.
