Netizens' guesses were wildly imaginative, but some of them did guess one or two points correctly, such as the ghost.
However, perhaps influenced by the recently popular bizarre and mind-bending style, many netizens' guesses are extremely outrageous.
Some guessed it was about a female corpse who died and came back to life in an ancient castle, while others guessed it was about the world within the world... Such a simple plot of love between a human and a ghost was surprisingly overlooked.
Ye Chu laughed until her stomach hurt as she looked at all sorts of strange guesses, which made Ye Jing look at her with concern, wondering what was wrong with the child.
Ye Jing planned to stay a few more days before returning home, and Ye Chu was naturally very willing to do so. Now, every night, Ye Chu would accompany Ye Jing to watch the escape, and when Ye Jing cooked, Ye Chu would help her.
Although she can't cook, she can still wash vegetables and chop things. Ye Jing's arrival made this usually quiet little apartment much more lively.
"You haven't had much work these past few days?" Ye Jing asked during dinner.
"Well, I'm not exactly a superstar. Although I was very busy recently, I still had more time to rest than others. Now I'm free. My next job is a magazine cover shoot and a movie premiere in November. November will be a busy month."
Do you have any plans for the end of the year?
"Not yet. Once it's confirmed that there aren't any more, I'll go home for the Chinese New Year."
Ye Chu took a chicken leg and started eating it. She was very happy to see Ye Jing talking happily about what she would buy if she went back home for the Chinese New Year this year.
Compared to Ye Chu, who has a lot of free time ahead of her, Gu Yu is a true movie star, with an incredibly busy schedule.
First, he rushed to several interviews, and then he flew directly to J City to be a special guest on a variety show. It can be said that he had very little rest time, and most of his days were spent on transportation.
"Next month will be easier," Cheng Yuan said to him, flipping through her notebook.
Gu Yu was resting with his eyes closed in the car; he would be boarding his plane home soon. His busy schedule had forced him to postpone many of his original plans, which frustrated him somewhat.
"I've postponed all the work that I could, and reserved the special cases to give me a relatively long period of free time."
"OK."
Shortly after Gu Yu boarded the plane, the official team of Daylight released exciting news: Daylight will be released in mid-November!
"My goodness, waiting for news during the day has become my daily routine, and today's two consecutive updates startled me so much I stood up on the spot! See you in November!"
"I'll definitely go see the premiere for my brother's sake!"
"I'm so happy to meet my precious daughter in November. This mother is moved to tears."
He Qing, the director, finally "came back to life" and removed the pinned Weibo post featuring the movie cover, replacing it with a new announcement.
He Qing V: Confirmed news, "Daylight" will officially premiere on November 16th. The premiere will be held on November 13th. Please follow @HereDaylight for more details.
"Ahhh, brother! I'm definitely going to the premiere!"
"I'm tired of saying that phrase. I can say it again!"
On the same day, the two Weibo posts #DaytimeReleaseTime# and #DaytimePremiere# suddenly appeared on the trending topics, which greatly increased the popularity of Daytime.
Time flies, and after Ye Jing returned, Ye Chu's small apartment returned to its somewhat quiet state, and it took her some time to readjust.
Changji has also finalized the move. The new house still needs renovation and some changes and improvements, so she can move there in a while.
Thinking about her work and the New Year, Ye Chu decided to postpone moving until next year. Anyway, she could stay here, so there was no rush.
The premiere in November was a resounding success. An interactive session preceded the film screening, during which many fans asked questions. The actors' witty answers and teasing banter kept the audience laughing throughout.
One segment was even edited out by the official team and shown as behind-the-scenes footage.
That was a fan of Ye Chu. When asking the question, she was probably too excited. The question she had prepared was: Is the older sister's character a female ghost?
This is a question many netizens want to know, but because she was too nervous, the fan asked the question as: "Sister, are you a female ghost?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Ye Chu replied humorously: No, I'm a living person! Look, I even have a shadow!
After this clip was released, many netizens laughed and said that the girl asking the question was so cute and silly, and that she was so nervous that she was talking nonsense.
In response, the girl herself reposted the Weibo post, adding the following text: "I've been a long-time fan of Ye Chu, but due to work, I haven't had the chance to attend any of her events. This time, I finally got this precious opportunity, so I was super nervous. When Chu Chu answered me with a smile, I almost fainted. I was so embarrassed to do that in front of my 'daughter' QAQ. But my 'daughter' is so gentle and cute, and she even stuck her tongue out at me. So adorable!"
After that, she posted another Weibo message: Don't laugh at me! As someone who has seen the movie, I want to tell you, you're all wrong! Humph!
This Weibo post immediately aroused everyone's curiosity to its peak.
Some people exclaimed: What? So many guesses so far, and not a single one has come true? Is the plot going to be even more bizarre? Impossible! I'm definitely going to see the movie when it's released! I refuse to believe that none of them guessed correctly!
Others continued to come up with bizarre plot speculations.
On November 16th, the cinema was packed, with countless netizens entering the screening room with their immense curiosity.
Two hours later, the lights came on, and the staff saw many people walking out of the screening room, sobbing and laughing at the same time. The whole scene was very strange.
The following day, the box office figures for the first day were announced: 121 million.
This was followed by a large number of film reviews, including a long review by the famous film critic Dai Lei. His long review was forwarded countless times, which also encouraged more people to go to the cinema to see if the movie was as he described.
Dai Lei's lengthy review is as follows:
First of all, I must say that "Daylight" does have its shortcomings, but as a debut film by a new director, "Daylight" is also excellent.
The film's several emotional climaxes are also plot twists, and while the transitions are good, they aren't particularly surprising. From my personal perspective, the general plot is predictable, so as a viewer, what moved me emotionally wasn't the plot twists, but rather the characters' emotions.
To avoid revealing specific plot details, I'll only briefly discuss the character that left the deepest impression on me: Xu Yan. As the female lead, her emotional changes before and after death are vividly portrayed, and her transformation after the reunion is perfectly timed. Her emotions are lively and realistic, unconsciously drawing you into the character and creating a truly immersive viewing experience.
This character deeply moved me. From some perspectives, I think the female lead is the core of the film, but the film is titled "Daylight," and I think the director wanted to emphasize the word "redemption."
