Chapter 749 Another Useful Way to Run Away (8600 words updated)
The renewed success of "Buried" made several of Lu Yanhe's works in Hollywood instantly hot commodities.
Whether it's "Source Code," a collaboration with director Lune Reese, or "Red Eye," which Midoriya secured, or "Flypaper," whose cast has already been finalized and is about to begin filming, all have become hot projects that everyone in Hollywood is asking about.
Source Code is still in the early stages of development. Director Lune Reese is currently filming Doomsday, so he won't have time to work on Source Code until that movie is finished.
For the two films, "Red Eye" and "Flypaper," the main roles have already been cast, leaving A-list actors who wanted to secure those roles frustrated because they were too late.
But at this very moment, Muken Sorge's new project with D19 began to emerge.
"Escape from Get Out", screenwriter: Lu Yanhe.
Another film by Lu Yanhe.
Is this movie a horror/thriller?!
For a time, the "Get Out" project caught the attention of Hollywood actors, who all inquired about the details.
Even some of Lu Yanhe's friends in China have come to inquire whether there are any roles with only one or two lines that they can use to give their new actors a boost in their resumes.
Lu Yanhe stated frankly that there is not a single Asian character in this film.
Indeed, there really isn't.
This movie is not suitable for Asian characters. Although Lu Yanhe doesn't quite remember if there were any Asian characters who appeared briefly in the movie, he is certain that there are none among the main characters.
However, although he did not intend to use Asian actors, Lu Yanhe did not intend to be just an observer in this film.
He spoke with Chen Yin and selected a highly regarded young person from the company to be assigned to the "Get Out" film crew. As one of the film's main investors, the young person would participate in the entire production process as a production assistant.
We will learn from and observe, and bring back good production management experience to Linghe.
Furthermore, Lu Yanhe also instructed Chen Yin to select four promising young people from Linghe's technical professions—photography, lighting, art direction, and editing—to become apprentices in this film crew.
Murken Sorge's film crew is a top-tier Hollywood production team, with mature and industrialized production in all aspects, making it well worth studying.
Of course, the main reason is that with Murken Sorge as the director, Lu Yanhe doesn't have to worry about the other party being unwilling.
Lu Yanhe has the right to speak on this film, and Mu Ken will accept it both emotionally and logically.
-
At the same time, Lu Yanhe also began to think about a new script.
With the huge success of "Home Alone" and "Buried," and the upcoming broadcast of "Chinese Paladin" this summer, Linghe's account will be very well-funded for the next one to two years.
Rather than letting things gather dust in your hands, it's better to undertake more projects to further accumulate capital and prepare for future transformation, upgrading, and expansion.
Based on the funds in Linghe's account for the next one to two years, Lu Yanhe still prefers to make low-budget films to achieve big returns with small investments and pave the way for the company.
Those blockbuster works that are highly lucrative now are risky to release, and their returns will be significantly reduced because they are distributed by others.
After all, if the distributor of "Home Alone" had been Spirit Rivers itself instead of Midoriya, they would have earned at least an extra $100 million this year.
Only when Linghe can establish its own distribution channels globally can it truly become independent of others.
Now, we still need to continue accumulating experience.
Lu Yanhe thought about it and realized that he didn't need to position every film as a high-risk, high-reward film like "Home Alone" and "Buried".
As long as the film can make money and has a relatively low production cost, it can be made.
So he rummaged around and the Notebook, for which he had already written the script, came to mind.
This classic romantic comedy, released in 2004, had a production cost of $29 million and ultimately grossed $119 million worldwide. Most importantly, because the film is a classic, its long-tail revenue was phenomenal, with various copyrights selling off rapidly, generating a continuous stream of profits.
Many film companies, despite seeing only a small box office from the films they release each year, still manage to make a fortune by living off their past successes, thanks to their vast film libraries.
So far, apart from "You Are the Apple of My Eye", Linghe has not released another purely romantic film.
People say that the box office potential of romance movies is limited, but they don't see how high the return on investment can be once a romance movie is made well. After all, the production cost of romance movies is also not high.
The film "The Fault in Our Stars," which tells the love story of a young boy and girl with terminal illnesses, had a budget of $12 million and grossed over $300 million worldwide, making it a top performer in terms of return on investment.
Lu Yanhe thought for a moment, and then wrote down the title "The Mistake in the Stars".
Both of these films are relatively easy to produce.
Lu Yanhe thought about it and decided that he could use these two scripts to test Darren Wilson's abilities.
As an agent, what conditions can he negotiate for these two scripts?
Previously, Lu Yanhe negotiated all the scripts himself.
He didn't feel like he had been taken advantage of.
However, there's always a difference between being in the same circle and not.
Perhaps Darren Wilson could get unexpected results if he talks to those film companies.
So Lu Yanhe first revised the script of "The Notebook" and sent it to Darren Wilson.
"Please help me register first, and then you can help me contact various companies. I haven't shown this script to any company yet."
Darren Wilson immediately understood what Lu Yanhe was saying on the phone.
Darren Wilson had long wanted to get involved in Lu Yanhe's screenwriting agency.
However, Darren Wilson had no room to intervene in Lu Yanhe's previous screenwriting work.
Lu Yanhe's scripts are basically Chinese-style resource exchanges and probing, and the "business-oriented" nature is not the primary focus.
Now that Lu Yanhe has established himself, he can test the waters of "business is business".
-
While Lu Yanhe was recalling the plot of "The Wrong Star" and writing the script, the show "The Voice of China" became a hit after two episodes aired.
Several of his performance videos went viral online, generating astonishing views.
In this era where original music is scarce, a music variety show that focuses on creating original music has suddenly emerged.
It truly is "one of a kind".
Other music variety shows feature covers, but "The Voice of China" features entirely original songs.
Moreover, they have different styles.
Lu Yanhe himself saw "Little Zhou Shen", "Little Shan Yichun", even "Little Sa Dingding", and even "Little Jay Chou".
Music of various styles, singers of various styles, may not seem to have a unified tone, but their inherent tone is incredibly consistent: they are original music.
The preparation time for making this program was nearly a year and a half, and most of the time was spent on this.
In an interview, producer Deng Lu said, "The most difficult part of this program was actually finding singers. As everyone knows, I took over after Sister Zixing left. The most difficult hurdles were overcome with the help of Sister Zixing. Of course, we also want to thank Linghe. Without their support—for a year and a half, they continuously provided us with preparation funds, paid the salaries of the team members, including the singers' training and salaries, etc.—it would have been difficult for us to maintain our standards and original intentions and gather so many singers that we recognized and wanted to present to everyone."
"Actually, it's too easy to produce a lighthearted and profitable variety show in the current variety show environment. Please note, I'm not saying it's easy to produce a very popular variety show, but it's easy to make money," Deng Lu said. "However, I think it's very meaningful that Linghe proposed such a plan, to tackle such a tough challenge, and to bring such a show to the market. I don't want to use a variety show to say that music is not dead, but I want to say that the world should be richer and more exciting, instead of being monotonous and sticking to old rules."
"The risk of original music is not knowing whether the market will accept it. Of course, music variety shows that adapt classic music also have their own difficulties. But I think that all kinds of music variety shows need to be made, right? Maybe the show we are making will become a catalyst, prompting various platforms to start making original music. If the demand increases and the market expands, will there be more original musicians? Will there be fewer musicians who change careers because of financial difficulties?"
"The show's sponsorship is going very well. What I said earlier wasn't to say that the show isn't profitable. I'm not trying to play the victim, please emphasize that for me, highlight it in bold." Deng Lu laughed. "Moreover, because this show is designed to promote new original music artists, the early episodes will feature young, up-and-coming singers performing their songs. But later on, more well-known singers will appear on our show, performing their new songs that are being released to the market for the first time. I hope this show can become a platform for all singers to promote their new songs. That's a small personal wish of mine."
-
How can we turn "The Voice of China" from a seasonal program into a weekly program?
Just like the current "Idol Era"?
Lu Yanhe pondered the possibilities.
It's definitely not possible right now, at least not.
Not many singers will come to this show to promote their songs.
Right now, the focus is definitely on new artists and new songs.
However, it's possible that a spin-off program could be created around "The Voice of China" to promote established singers.
If it can become the preferred stage for famous singers to premiere their new songs, then its prestige is very high.
Just like the current show "Idol Era," there isn't a single idol in China who doesn't perform on stage in this program.
In particular, the annual music festival held by "Idol Era" can attract hundreds of thousands of visitors to the host city.
It has a very large influence.
Lu Yanhe thought it was worth a try, but only if singers were willing to come to the show to promote their songs.
The show needs to first create an impact.
Deng Lu said, "If we have the idea of making such a program, I think we can let some word out first, and maybe some singers will contact us."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
He said, "Actually, if a singer contacts us and the quality of their song is really good, we can record a separate debut performance for them and put it in a later program as a separate performance segment. If such a segment is well received, perhaps, as you said, it can directly attract some singers to contact us."
Deng Lu nodded.
"I'll go talk to Sister Ziyan and see if Shihuo has any suitable signed singers," Lu Yanhe said.
-
In fact, various music platforms now have their own "original content plans".
But opinions on the effectiveness are subjective.
Lu Yanhe had no idea what "The Voice of China" would turn out to be.
However, having higher goals is a good thing, just don't be overly ambitious.
For now, let's just record the program exactly as we originally envisioned.
At this time, Yemai.com's "City Travelogue" also came to us.
Xin Zixing asked, "Are you free for the first episode after your comeback?"
Lu Yanhe has indeed been free lately with nothing to do.
Moreover, he has rested enough now and is willing to meet new people and experience new things.
So Lu Yanhe said yes.
Xin Zixing remains the executive producer.
However, the production quality of this program has been significantly improved in all aspects.
From the photography team to the shooting plan, it's a huge improvement over the previous small team of just a few people.
The regular guest on this documentary program is Professor Zhou Shuyu, Qiu Ling's boyfriend—oh, no, I should call him her husband now.
They got married.
Time really flies.
In addition to Lu Yanhe, Xin Zixing also invited writer Shi Xia and photographer Pang Yu.
Lu Yanhe's first meeting with Pang Yu—
The latter is an internationally renowned photographer.
Many of his photos have been widely circulated.
An artist.
He was also invited to photograph one of the world's top calendars, the Pirelli Calendar.
This lineup of guests clearly demonstrates Xin Zixing's dedication to the "City Travelogue" program and its strategic significance to Yemai.com.
It remains a brand section.
The kind that builds a brand image without expecting anything in return.
What can I say about these people?
They are all people who hold very high positions in their respective fields.
They may not be able to attract many viewers, but their appearance fee will certainly be substantial.
What surprised Lu Yanhe the most was that Qiu Ling would also participate in the recording of the program.
As an ordinary person.
This is Xin Zixing's idea.
"Firstly, because Qiu Ling is Zhou Shuyu's wife and also knows Lu Yanhe, she won't feel alienated from this group just because she's an ordinary person; secondly, I hope that this program can have that real, down-to-earth feeling of the city. The simplicity of celebrities is a gimmick, while the authenticity of ordinary people is the foundation."
After hearing Xin Zixing's idea, Lu Yanhe learned about Xin Zixing.
Xin Zixing plans to invite ordinary people from all walks of life to participate in the recording of the show in each episode.
However, they also need to have some connection with the people being recorded with, so that they don't feel out of place or unfamiliar on the show.
Of course, this is yet another attempt.
Actually, making a program that is different from "fast food programs" or "celebrity gatherings" is no different from creating a film or television drama. It still depends on the program's creativity, the production team's execution, and whether the program guests have chemistry. It also requires some humanistic and artistic pursuits to create something different.
-
News of Lu Yanhe's return to the show "City Travelogue" was quickly leaked by paparazzi.
Nowadays, it's extremely difficult for any celebrity to do something without anyone knowing in advance.
Especially for a big-name celebrity like Lu Yanhe who receives a lot of attention.
Then, to everyone's surprise, this incident was met with criticism from many of Lu Yanhe's fans.
The reason is that the show is no longer worthy of Lu Yanhe's status.
Immediately afterwards, some people began to criticize Xin Zixing, saying that she used personal connections to persuade Lu Yanhe to come to the show.
First, the production budget for one episode of "City Travelogue" was less than 100,000 yuan. Then, Lu Yanhe won an Oscar, and after returning to China, he rested for so long without appearing on any shows or in public. Finally, when he made a move, he went to record "City Travelogue".
Subsequently, some haters took the opportunity to attack Lu Yanhe, claiming that the reason Lu Yanhe is still willing to record "City Travelogue" is because he is too eager to cultivate his image as an "artistic youth" and "rejecting fame and fortune".
There are some people in this world who will never understand "non-utilitarian motives" and "choices made on impulse." They can only define them as "intellectualism" or "mentally ill."
But such a sudden, overwhelming noise, as if an entire army had been assembled and bombarded Lu Yanhe, made Chen Ziyan think without hesitation that someone else must have made a move again.
We must crush Lu Yanhe.
At least, when Lu Yanhe is making rapid progress, we should cause him some trouble.
For some rising stars, this tactic is known as "anti-explosion."
As for Lu Yanhe, he can no longer be "protected from being attacked," but he can still be smeared.
It's not necessary to bring him down from his pedestal. As long as his golden image isn't so flawless, people will naturally follow suit and kick him while he's down in the struggle for interests.
Without saying a word, Xin Zixing showed a promotional image with several lines of text on it—
"City Travelogue" returns, with its original spirit and a more profound perspective.
First episode guest:
Zhou Shuyu, Associate Professor at Yuming University.
Shi Xia, a famous writer.
Pang Yu, a renowned photographer.
Lu Yanhe, an old friend of "City Travelogue".
Qiu Ling, a police officer from Yuming City.
And Xin Zixing, editor-in-chief of Yemai.com.
Subsequently, Chen Ziyan reposted this Weibo post, saying: "Sentiment is the most sincere thing. What deserves it is sincerity and earnestness, and what does not deserve it is worldliness and prejudice."
Lu Yanhe also posted a group photo of the group, saying: "I'm already tanned from the sun, so I don't need to tan anymore. 'City Travelogue' is the road I came from. No matter how far I go, I will always come back to visit. There are old friends and new friends at home. If you are my fan, please be a friendly neighbor."
It was another swift public relations response.
The speed of their reaction was astonishing.
However, Chen Ziyan was shocked when she found out who was behind this sudden scandal through her own channels.
This group of trolls targeting Lu Yanhe wasn't actually Lu Yanhe's enemy, nor was it the work of Chen Pinhe and Zhang Yuezhen, but rather—
Xin Zixing slammed her hand on the table in fury.
You mean Liu Qiao?
Liu Qiao, former editor-in-chief of YeMai.com.
This wave of negative publicity wasn't aimed at Lu Yanhe; the real target was Xin Zixing.
No wonder Xin Zixing was so furious.
The reason why Xin Zixing was doing so well at Yemai.com was because she had many conflicts with Liu Qiao.
This time, after Yemai.com was sold to Shijin, Shijin directly ousted Liu Qiao and invited Xin Zixing back to be the editor-in-chief.
The grudges and entanglements involved cannot be explained in just a few words.
However, the victor is king, and the loser is a bandit.
Xin Zixing never expected that Liu Qiao would resort to such underhanded tactics even after he was already out of the game.
Why did Liu Qiao do this?
Just to vent your anger?
That would be incredibly irrational of him.
Now that Liu Qiao is out of the picture and has become the editor-in-chief of YeMai.com, does he really think he can remove her from her position as editor-in-chief of YeMai.com based on such a small matter?
"Do you think Liu Qiao is being instructed by someone?" Chen Ziyan asked Xin Zixing.
Xin Zixing nodded. "Since Liu Qiao left Yemai.com, he hasn't found a new employer yet. He's been in charge of Yemai.com for so many years, and he has connections and resources. Even though he was ousted by Shi Jin, he still has influence. If he used such low-level tactics just to annoy me and get revenge, that would be normal. But directly targeting Yan He seems like an attempt to attack me, but would a normal person who hasn't completely lost everything need to make an enemy like Lu Yan He?"
Chen Ziyan nodded thoughtfully.
“You’re right. However, the only thing we’ve found so far has stopped at Liu Qiao. Just like you said, even though he’s left Yemai.com, it’s still easy for him to mobilize resources to do this kind of thing,” Chen Ziyan said. “In fact, what he’s doing isn’t secretive at all, and it’s easy to find out. He’s obviously not afraid of us finding out.”
“Perhaps he wants us to find out,” Xin Zixing said. “He’s the target.”
“The person who set up the target must be found,” Chen Ziyan said.
“But if we don’t do anything now, the people behind him might realize we’re fishing.”
Chen Ziyan said, "Then let's fight back first."
"Fight back?" Xin Zixing pondered for a moment, then nodded. "I understand. Leave this to me."
Chen Ziyan: "He's disgusting us, so let him be disgusting too."
Xin Zixing nodded.
-
The next day, a former employee of Yemai.com posted a message expressing regret for not having stayed longer and waited until Liu Qiao left and Xin Zixing returned, seeing the current state of Yemai.com.
Someone in the comments section asked: What happened?
The poster said: It's a long story, Liu Qiao is a complicated person.
This was originally just a very ordinary rant post.
But it's just a disguised "ordinary".
About seven or eight hours later, a few comments from different IP addresses appeared sporadically under the post, all expressing curiosity about what the poster had been doing on YeMai.com before, and how Liu Qiao, the editor-in-chief, had become "unspeakable".
Then, another person claiming to be a "former employee of Yemai.com" replied to the post: Are you HBN?
The poster replied: Who are you?
This person said: A year ago, he asked us to attend a drinking party at 11 p.m., and if we didn't go, he would fire us. Do you remember me?
The poster was shocked: It's you?!
"Although this post is a performance, the events are real."
Xin Zixing said to Chen Ziyan.
Chen Ziyan: "This matter is too small, not enough."
Xin Zixing: "Take it slow. Throwing it too hard all at once makes it obvious that someone is sniping at him from behind."
Chen Ziyan: "Okay."
Xin Zixing: "Is Yan He alright? Did what happened before affect him?"
Chen Ziyan: "He's fine. After having a meal with you, he went about his business as usual. The controversy and haters on the internet can't affect him too much anymore."
"That's good," Xin Zixing said. "I don't want him to be sad because of me."
Chen Ziyan: "Don't think like that. Every three to five months, a batch of people from Heiyanhe will definitely emerge. This is a fixed pattern. He occupies his current position, so he has to bear these responsibilities. There's no way around it. Too many people's interests need to be taken from him."
"well."
"Have you watched the show 'The Voice of China'? You've worked so hard to prepare for it for so long, but you didn't even make it to the broadcast."
"I haven't even thanked you yet, but you've kept my producer credit," Xin Zixing said with a smile.
“You were the one who spearheaded the initial work, so it’s only right that you’re credited,” Chen Ziyan said. “Actually, if you hadn’t returned to Yemai.com, the management position in the variety show department at Linghe would definitely have been yours.”
“I have things I want to do more, and at Yemai.com, I have more power to help you,” Xin Zixing said. “I know I can do well in Linghe, but the things I do don’t give me the same passion as what I do here at Yemai.com.”
"That's true. People should do what they truly love. You're right."
-
When the recording of "City Travelogue" officially began, Liu Qiao, the former editor-in-chief of Yemai.com, had already exposed his various acts of workplace bullying, forcing female subordinates to attend drinking parties, and making things difficult for people he didn't like. These acts had been trending on social media for two days.
The internet is full of people cursing and accusing him.
Lu Yanhe was unaware that this was Xin Zixing's doing.
Lu Yanhe still doesn't know who was behind the attacks that targeted him earlier.
Neither Chen Ziyan nor Xin Zixing told him.
So, as soon as Lu Yanhe met Xin Zixing, he asked curiously, "Did Liu Qiao go that far before?"
“I didn’t expect it either.” Xin Zixing spoke from the heart. “Before I left Yemai.com, although I had some unpleasant experiences with him, he hadn’t yet exhibited such a bad reputation. I never imagined that he would change so much after I left.”
Lu Yanhe: "Without your restraint, he has lost a huge threat and has started to get cocky."
Xin Zixing shook her head with a smile.
"I don't know either."
Lu Yanhe: "It's good that you went back to Yemai.com."
Xin Zixing nodded.
I think so too.
Lu Yanhe: "Have you watched 'The Voice of China'?"
“I’ve been watching it, every single episode,” Xin Zixing said. “Didn’t you see that Yemai.com has a special column for ‘The Voice of China’? We are a partner of ‘The Voice of China’ and have exclusive interview rights during the broadcast.”
Lu Yanhe: "That's amazing."
“Then your praise is rather insincere,” Xin Zixing laughed.
They got out of the car together and went to meet up with the guests who were recording the show.
Lu Yanhe had already gotten to know everyone from their previous meal together.
This time, they were going to take the high-speed train together, then transfer to a regular green train, to reach a remote town.
A desert town.
What excited Lu Yanhe most about this trip was being able to meet Qiu Ling again and have a good chat.
It's been too long since we last met, too long since we had a proper chat.
The policewoman who unexpectedly entered their lives during their period of dormancy has now returned.
-
In a group of three.
Li Zhi asked Lu Yanhe: Have you seen Sister Qiuling?
Li Zhibai: Ugh, this is so annoying. Why was the recording of the first episode scheduled for these few days? I had already arranged my work in advance, otherwise I could have gone with you.
Yan Liang: You're not still hung up on Qiu Ling, are you?
Li Zhibai: Can you stop thinking about all that... all that stuff? We're just friends! Don't you want to see Sister Qiuling?
Yan Liang: Yes, I have, but I have never had any improper thoughts about Sister Qiuling.
Li Zhibai: Shut up.
Yan Liang: You already have Sister Yuqian, so shut up.
Li Zhibai: Shut your mouth!
Yan Liang: Besides, Sister Qiuling is already married and has a husband.
Li Zhibai: ...Damn it, are you still not done?
Yan Liang: Prevent problems before they arise.
Li Zhibai: Go to hell.
At this moment, Lu Yanhe popped up in the group chat.
He sent two messages.
Article 1: Uh, although I guessed it a long time ago, Li Zhibai, have you forgotten that you still haven't told me that you and Sister Yuqian are together?
Article 2: Yan Liang is right, we must nip problems in the bud.
Yan Liang: ? ? ? What? Li Zhibai hasn't confessed to you yet?
Yan Liang: I thought you already knew.
Lu Yanhe: I had guessed it long ago, but no one ever confirmed this news with me.
Li Zhibai: ...I'm too lazy to talk to you guys anymore, I'm going to film now.
Yan Liang: Keep pretending to be dead. The director you worked with today just messaged me saying there's a problem with the ad plan you shot and they're making temporary changes. Everyone's waiting, so what are you shooting?
Lu Yanhe: Li Zhibai really doesn't learn anything good, he only learns the "running away is shameful but useful" rhetoric.
Yan Liang: Back then, he had improper thoughts about Sister Qiu Ling, but he didn't dare to confess. Wasn't that just "running away is shameful but useful"?
Lu Yanhe: Tsk.
Yan Liang: Tsk.
-
Lu Yanhe put away his phone with great delight.
Qiu Ling saw the smile on his face and asked him what he was smiling about.
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Qiu Ling nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
"Li Zhibai and Yan Liang, are they busy lately?"
“Li Zhibai is filming an advertisement today, and Yan Liang is filming a TV series,” Lu Yanhe said. “Only I’m relatively free lately.”
Qiu Ling: "You should take it easy and stop working so hard. I've never seen you rest."
"It's alright," Lu Yanhe said. "As an artist, I'm more afraid of being idle than being busy."
Are you scared too?
"Hmm—" Lu Yanhe thought for a moment and then spoke the truth, "I'm scared."
“The happiest thing is to steal a moment of leisure from a busy schedule,” Lu Yanhe said. “I enjoy being busy on my own initiative. As long as no one forces me to work, I don’t really enjoy being leisurely.”
Qiu Ling nodded.
"Little yellow ox."
Lu Yanhe: "You have the nerve to talk to me like that? You're a workaholic yourself, do you still work overtime all the time?"
He remembered clearly that Qiu Ling was always working overtime back then.
Qiu Ling said, "I've now transferred to the technical department and I'm no longer on the front lines. It's good. Although there are still times when I have to work overtime, there aren't as many urgent situations anymore, which is much better."
"That's good." Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.
"What were you trying to say?" Qiu Ling asked.
Lu Yanhe shook his head.
"Speak quickly."
Lu Yanhe: "Then I'll tell you, don't be angry."
Qiu Ling nodded, "I'm not angry."
"The camera is rolling, you can't go back on your word."
"I will keep my word," Qiu Ling said.
Lu Yanhe nodded before saying, "What I was about to say is that you're over thirty now. You're not the young, resilient girl we first met anymore. You really can't stay on the front lines all the time."
Qiu Ling remained expressionless.
Lu Yanhe pointed at the photographer and said, "One cannot go back on one's word."
Qiu Ling smiled slightly and said, "But people can close the door and unleash the dogs."
She turned to the photographer: "Either turn off the camera, or go shoot someone else."
Photographer: "..."
Qiu Ling had already started rolling up her sleeves.
Lu Yanhe shouted and ran towards Zhou Shuyu.
"Brother Zhou, please save me!"
Qiu Ling: "Zhou Shuyu, you dare to protect him and see what happens!"
Zhou Shuyu quickly moved aside and said to Lu Yanhe, "Don't come any closer! Stay away from me!"
Xin Zixing was taken aback by what she saw, then laughed and shook her head.
It's been so long since I've seen Lu Yanhe running, laughing, and shouting like a foal letting loose.
The sunlight shone on him, as bright as his smile.
