Chapter 30 Officially Started Filming "Thank you... Li...
He Yan had thought that someone would take a picture of Zhu Shengting pinching his ear, but he didn't expect it to directly become the number one trending search. Is it really natural popularity?
He was skeptical about whether Meng Chuan had contributed to the situation.
But he couldn't understand the second most searched topic. When did Zhu Shengting sexually harass him? How come he didn't know about it?
He Yan felt it was ridiculous and clicked on the second hot search term.
[World's No. 1 Beauty Banquet: #Zhu Shengting sexually harassed He Yan, everyone watch! At the opening ceremony of "When the Grain Rain Comes," Zhu Shengting pinched He Yan's earlobe for no reason. What else could this be but sexual harassment? Can't people have a sense of boundaries? Can't you see how embarrassed He Yan is? Such self-righteous humor! And some CP fans are using this as sugar, it's just blood sugar! With all this blood sugar, have you ever considered He Yan's feelings? @Dream Transmission Media, why don't you try playing dead again?] [Video attached]
There was a long paragraph about the most popular title. He Yan stared at it for five seconds before he dared to confirm it. It was the same thing as the most popular search.
Now he really felt that the world couldn't be more absurd. He hadn't expected that Zhu Shengting's small action towards him would cause such a bloody storm.
Although he himself really didn't think that Zhu Shengting's behavior at that time was particularly inappropriate, it was only for a moment, shorter than the time the wind lingered on his earlobe.
At this moment, he was even a little afraid to turn his head to look at Zhu Shengting's expression. It was too embarrassing.
Now he understood why he and Zhu Shengting had just entered the dressing room and the staff were looking at each other in bewilderment, and the whole atmosphere was so strange.
As soon as he randomly comments and forwards something, fans from all sides will start fighting.
[Feast Critic, are you trying to use my daughter as a pawn again? Can't you just go back and be the girl of your dreams? You can handle this kind of harassment? You're hopeless with your sexuality!]
[Who are you trying to scare by calling it sexual harassment just by touching me? If you have the guts, why don't you just stop talking to me? Yansi, try surrendering to the enemy again in the void? And you're still calling others sexually suggestive. Do you really think your man is a woman?]
[Feast critics, have you seen this? Stop it. She's already trending on the search list and is spreading rumors about others. If you're still willing to continue, just admit that you're a nanny. My husband won't be around anymore. Thank you.]
Who doesn't know that Shengyan criticizes everyone for being a "motherfucker"? Every time Heyan rolls his eyes at Zhu Shengting, he's just a "loving" character. Sorry, I don't like to be ignored. Zhu Shengting has plenty of friends.
When will Tingsi finally come out of her fantasy? You have so many friends, can you please stop pestering my wife to go to the company? Stop copying my wife's Weibo? Stop secretly inserting personal content and promoting homosexuality on Weibo? Are you still feeling wronged?
[According to what you said, was He Yan possessed when he liked my Weibo post and followed me, and when he was so shy after having his earlobe pinched? His words were really funny, and passersby laughed.]
[Sister fans, are you sick? If you can't stand the interaction between Shengyan and the other two, you can just fly to Tongxiang right now, kneel down in front of them and beg them to stop being gay. Don't let them continue to be gay even after you kneel down, and then your defense will be broken. If you still can't stand it, you can only jump into the lake.]
[If you ask me, Tingsi and Yansi are the best at shipping. No matter what they do, they always think of the other person. One of them likes a Weibo post while the other secretly posts a collaboration trailer. One pinches the earlobe while the other is shy. We CP fans don’t dare to ship them like this.]
[Anyone watching this would either be shocked or laugh at your extremely sensitive skin. Two grown men resorted to sexual harassment in a physical contact that lasted less than a second.]
[You toxic fans are such idiots for making this topic the second most searched topic. You guys still have two or three months to film together. They're the ones who are most embarrassed by this ugly scene, right?]
He Yan felt really embarrassed seeing this.
But ever since he and Zhu Shengting started working together, the intensity of the fight between their fans has skyrocketed along with their popularity, and it is impossible for the two of them to stop doing business just because their fans are fighting too hard, so it would only add to the embarrassment.
However, fans will not listen to anyone else and only want to listen to themselves. The top management of Dream Chuan, including He Yan himself, are well aware of this.
"bite--"
He Yan exited Weibo and clicked on the message that popped up on WeChat.
Shengting: [Photo]
Sheng Ting: I forgot to send you the photo I took yesterday.
He Yan was stunned for a moment and clicked on the big picture. It was the two-person selfie that Zhu Shengting suggested yesterday. It was a pretty good-looking photo, so He Yan saved it.
"Teacher He, close your eyes." The makeup artist shook the moisturizing spray.
He Yan took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled as he sat up straight, turned off his phone, and stopped thinking about the results of the online fan fights.
Zhu Shengting, who was sitting next to He Yan, had actually seen the online debates before He Yan, but he didn't feel anything, as if he was not the subject of the discussion.
In fact, Zhu Shengting's idea was very simple. He made that move just because he wanted to do it at that moment. What other people think is none of his business. He just needs to know that He Yan doesn't reject it.
Of course, he made such a move knowing that He Yan would not reject him.
An hour later, the two of them finished their makeup and changed into their first clothes, ready to shoot the first scene.
Because it was in the morning, according to the timeline of the script's story background, the first scene that He Yan and Zhu Shengting had to shoot was the second meeting between them.
On the Saturday morning when Tongxiang No. 2 Middle School had a biweekly holiday, Li Cong helped his mother, who sold fresh produce at the vegetable market, to transport goods. On the way, he passed by Chengli Thirteenth Street as usual. This time, he ran into Lin Guyu who was being besieged and bullied.
Xia Hui glanced at Zhu Shengting, who was wearing a black thin sweatshirt jacket without any patterns, and found that he was thinner than when he was reading the script, which was more in line with the image of Li Congye in the story, who was taciturn and thin.
In fact, she didn't tell Zhu Shengting about losing muscle at the beginning. After all, the difference was not that big and it was an insignificant detail. But Zhu Shengting still lost weight slowly, and she was still very relieved.
The same goes for He Yan on the other side. Lin Guyu's image in the script is unconsciously timid, shy, and even stutters when he is anxious. As soon as He Yan changes into Lin Guyu's look, his whole temperament naturally transitions.
Today, He Yan's makeup look also consisted of a simple blue jacket with a dolphin pattern on it, and grey sweatpants on the bottom. Due to the plot requirements, the pants and clothes were stained with dust and had faint bloodstains. At this moment, he asked the makeup artist to check the makeup on his face while he was reviewing the script with Zhu Shengting.
Xia Hui looked back and forth again, feeling in her heart that she had chosen the right person by judging him by his appearance.
"Teacher Zhu, don't forget your apron sleeves." The staff handed Zhu Shengting a leather apron that smelled of fish, and a pair of slightly hidden leather sleeves.
To be honest, the smell was a bit pungent, and He Yan subconsciously held his breath, but Zhu Shengting took it and tied it around himself without changing his expression, and then put on the cuffs.
Zhao Qiushi, who plays the gang leader Liu Neng, just came back from the bathroom. After running a few steps, sweat began to form on his face. "Excuse me, Director Xia, I'm fine now!"
Xia Hui waved her hand and checked the camera again. "Okay, let's shoot the first shot first. The scene where Xiaozhu drives the tricycle over. Remember the movement path I told you before."
"Okay." Zhu Shengting walked to the electric tricycle prepared by the crew in the hot sun and sat on it.
He Yan, Zhao Qiushi and other extras were standing under the shed watching. He Yan felt a little hot and used a small electric fan to cool down. The script took place in spring at the end of March, so he had to wear a thin coat. But for May when summer was about to begin, it was still a little hot.
"First scene, first shot! Action!"
Today was an extremely ordinary day for Li Cong. As usual, he delivered fresh goods to various destinations according to orders, and as before, he passed by the back street of his school.
But today was a little different. When he turned the corner and arrived at Chengli 13th Street, he saw a group of people at the end of the street, surrounding a person.
Li Cong's calm expression relaxed slightly. He frowned slightly, and after thinking for two seconds, he stopped the electric tricycle.
"Cut!" Xia Hui said into the intercom, "Great, first take passed!"
The staff around all smiled and felt a little more relaxed. After all, the first scene of a play is very important, and the first shot must be fired well.
"Okay, now let's shoot the second shot, a long shot where Liu Neng and the others bully Lin Guyu and Li Cong also sees it." Xia Hui continued to give instructions using the walkie-talkie.
He Yan put down the script and the small fan, checked his prop bag, and put it on his shoulder.
“Action!”
Li Cong also stopped the car and stood there for a few seconds. He saw four or five teenagers beating up a man. He silently turned on his old and stuck mobile phone, quickly took a few photos of the situation, and then honked the horn.
“Ding ding ding—”
The shrill horn sounded throughout the entire street and really startled the group of people. They were startled and stopped what they were doing. They shrunk their necks and looked back, and saw a familiar person.
And Li Cong was also familiar with that group of people.
The boy in the lead with the most ferocious expression was Liu Neng, a notorious gangster in their grade. He was surrounded by gangsters who had followed him for a long time. They were always idle and liked to bully their classmates for petty gains.
The boy in the middle who was beaten no longer felt any pain. He raised his head slightly, a little slowly, with a pool of turbulent tears in his eyes. He looked ahead in fear, then hid back.
The plot ended here, and the director did not call cut, indicating that the performance would continue. Zhu Shengting followed the script.
"Aren't you ready to leave yet?" Li Cong looked at the group with a cold expression and said impatiently, "Call the police."
Even if Liu Neng continued to be a scoundrel, he couldn't afford to go to the police station and wait for his parents to rescue him. That would be totally not worth it. He glanced at the person who was curled up like a hedgehog in front of his feet, winked at the people around him, and prepared to run.
"I took a photo. Don't come looking for him again." Li Cong added lightly.
Liu Neng had confronted this arrogant poor student before. His provocation was futile and he was beaten to the point where he had almost no power to fight back. Although there was more than one person on his side now, Li Cong was also a ruthless person. If he really took pictures and called the police, it would definitely be disadvantageous to them.
So a few people broke out in cold sweat on their backs because of Li Congye's words, and ran away without saying a word, running as fast as rats crossing the street.
Li Cong did not get off the car from beginning to end. He knew the most effective way to deal with this group of people. He could not guarantee that this group of people would never cause trouble for this person again, but it should be possible for a period of time.
He still had goods to deliver and didn't have the patience to get out of the car to see who was being bullied. He quickly restarted the car and prepared to leave.
"Thank...you, Li...Congye."
A faint, somewhat familiar voice prompted Li Cong to stop the car again.
He turned around and looked at the owner of the voice with calm eyes.
This was the second time he looked into these eyes as clear and bright as a deer's. Now, these beautiful eyes were still filled with crystal tears that had not fallen yet.
He remembered that the last time was also on Chengli Thirteenth Street.
Only at this moment did Li Cong truly see that the person who had just been surrounded and bullied was Lin Guyu.
