The name Zhan Chengwen began to circulate among a group of young people who considered themselves artistic enthusiasts.
While her follower growth wasn't as dramatic as that of the "Doll Sister," her followers were more loyal.
The hashtag "#Facing the sea, with spring flowers in bloom" even made it into the top ten trending searches on Douyin that day.
This is in line with Hou Wenjie's expectations.
Chen Zhou is an ordinary college student who, besides studying and playing games, enjoys watching some bizarre short videos on Douyin (TikTok).
Today, as usual, I opened Douyin (TikTok) and after watching a few short videos of bizarre inventions, a rugged-looking, sturdy young man appeared in the video.
"Hello, friends of Dongyin! I am your new friend, the great inventor Edison!"
A friend of mine told me that it's difficult to find a job now, and he doesn't want to work in a factory tightening screws, so he wants to go back to his hometown and set up a barbecue stall.
My friend is quite romantic; he enjoys discussing literature with elementary school students, philosophy with middle school students, and music and sex with female college students.
He called himself a musician, loved the piano, and once said that only music could make people noble and transcend all suffering!
He asked me for help, hoping I could weld a barbecue skewer truck for him.
After much deliberation, a brilliant idea finally flashed into my mind.
I've decided to combine a barbecue skewer cart with a piano, creating a one-of-a-kind piano-themed barbecue skewer cart!
Subsequently, Chen Zhou witnessed the extraordinary hands-on skills of this man who called himself Hua Disheng in the sped-up video.
Chainsaws, air guns, hammers, welding machines, and all sorts of other tools were brought out.
In the video, Waldison is adept at using every tool, and he can assemble the cut materials perfectly.
Soon, the video came to a close, showing that the piano-shaped barbecue cart had been successfully completed.
Hua Disheng sat in the car seat, started the kebab truck, and began playing the piano while controlling the direction.
The piece he played was Beethoven's famous "Moonlight Sonata," which Hou Wenjie had provided to him!
At this moment in the video, night has fallen, the moon is crescent-shaped, and on the vast flat ground, only a piano cart is slowly driving in circles.
Amidst the interplay of light and shadow, the clear and melodious strains of a piano drifted in.
Even those who don't know anything about piano can appreciate the charm of this picture.
The comments section below the video has exploded.
"So elegant, so incredibly elegant!"
"The friend the blogger mentioned, could it be yourself? Also, I've never heard that piano piece before. I've studied piano."
"No wonder you're a great inventor! I don't know if this car will make a good business selling kebabs, but I know you'll definitely be the coolest guy on the whole street!"
…
That day, the hashtag #TheGreatInventorWaldison trended on social media.
Hua Disheng quickly gained hundreds of thousands of followers, becoming a popular video blogger, and was even dubbed the "Grilled Skewer Pianist" by many netizens.
His half of "Moonlight Sonata" has also become popular in the piano world.
Zhang Yu is an ordinary factory worker, doing repetitive and tedious work day after day, his life seemingly destined to end at a glance.
He felt like a robot, repeating the same thing every day, without verbal communication or emotional fluctuations.
Only after get off work do he feel like he can barely be considered a human being, but he's just living in a cramped rented room, without a car, a house, or a wife.
Many people say that his way of life is called "lying flat".
He was genuinely confused.
His elementary school moral education teacher once told him that diligence can make people rich.
Workers are the cornerstone of the nation; I aspire to become a worker who builds our motherland.
But why was he criticized for being unambitious and complacent after becoming a hardworking worker?
This is truly a bewildering era!
Capitalists exploit workers, suck their blood, and talk about wolf culture while constantly preaching social values.
The educator, high and mighty, rebuked the students who had returned from their studies, telling them to take off their long gowns, lower their airs, and learn to be workers.
Critics have launched a fierce attack, arguing that lower-level workers lack ambition, are ungrateful, and unwilling to learn and improve; this is complacency, a malignant tumor hindering social development.
Everything seemed to have formed a perfect cycle.
The wealthy and powerful want students to become workers, while simultaneously wanting workers to become students!
Is that really what they were thinking? Perhaps they have other ulterior motives.
Zhang Yu only regretted that he knew too much and could do too little.
He felt like a lowly eunuch in an old palace, witnessing the prosperity of a big city, but this prosperity had nothing to do with him. Here, he had no roots and no home.
His only hope each day is to find limited happiness in the flood of information after get off work.
Lying in bed, he casually took out his phone, opened Douyin (TikTok), and started browsing the movie and TV show categories.
The first thing they showed him was a short film called "Close Combat Agent".
The opening credits begin with the five large characters: "[Stephen Chow's Movies]".
Then came [Banana Media Production].
For the opening sequence, Hou Wenjie adopted the style of old Shaw Brothers films.
In the opening scene, the bugle call to assemble sounds, as if an important figure is about to make a grand entrance.
The retro yet grand sound kept Zhang Yu from scrolling away for a moment.
Although the title "Close Combat 1" sounds like a bad movie.
The film officially begins.
The protagonist, Ah Qi, is cutting meat on the cutting board. He is wearing a blue apron and a pair of worn-out, cheap slippers.
The scene is a vegetable market, and his current profession is a butcher.
The scene flashes back to him; he was once an excellent special agent, possessing rope bondage skills far exceeding those of ordinary people.
Using his superb rappelling skills and agile movements, he helped the country recover stolen national treasures.
However, his superiors were corrupted and degenerate by foreign forces, and he was implicated as a result.
Although he was confirmed to be healthy after a second check, he was ultimately forced to leave the organization, inherit the butcher's knife left by his father, and become a butcher.
The scene switches back.
A beautiful woman dressed in white was already standing in front of the pork stall.
The subtitles indicate that the character makes a special appearance as the doll sister.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yu immediately recognized the woman in the video as the doll sister who had gone viral a few days ago.
Still wearing a white shirt and a white t-shirt, looking fierce, with short hair.
With her captivating peach blossom eyes, she's incredibly alluring simply by standing there.
At this moment, in the video.
The doll sister spoke:
"You think you can hide and I won't be able to find you!"
It's no use. A man as outstanding as you is like a firefly in the dark, no matter where you are!
So vivid, so outstanding!
Your melancholy eyes…
Sparse stubble...
Incredible swordsmanship…
And that Maldini, it all betrayed you!
"Even though you're so outstanding, there are rules in this industry. No matter what, you still need to pay for last night's stay!"
The doll sister's soft, sweet voice is captivating, and the scene shifts in sync with her voice.
That was Ah Qi's melancholy face, with a cigarette dangling from his lips and a light stubble on his beard.
That was his figure constantly wielding the cleaver; each cut looked so rhythmic and beautiful on camera.
The final shot freezes on a clear glass of wine, the wine inside gently swaying.
