Chapter 83: Reversal, Reversal, and Reversal
Not to mention that Orange, who had always been so intimidating, widened his eyes, even Shu Ming, who had grown to be more and more calm, almost dropped the pen in his hand.
Seeing everyone's support and huge reaction, especially the one who amused Shu Ming, Guan Xianyi felt even more accomplished!
She no longer kept the secret: "The notebook handed over this time is Ojiman's..."
Although this director from country S who specializes in art films does have several well-known representative works, they are not popular enough in China, so that as an insider, it is difficult for her to react all at once.
Guan Xianyi paused suspiciously for two seconds, but Shu Ming continued her conversation naturally and fluently: "Is that the Oujiman who filmed 'Emerald Summer'?"
Guan Xianyi remembered that she had forgotten.
Before studying, Qiao Min took Shu Ming with him to do his homework. Under his urging, Shu Ming watched almost all the relatively famous films at home and abroad. With his good memory, it was normal for him to be able to answer questions fluently.
That's right! Guan Xianyi laughed in his heart at his own fuss. He was originally worried about how to explain it to him. In fact, Shu Ming knew it all in his heart -
She was in a good mood: "Yes!"
Orange suddenly realized: "Oh, he was the one who filmed 'Emerald Summer'!"
Guan Xianyi nodded. "Oujiman has been looking for a black-haired, black-eyed Chinese woman who meets his needs, but he couldn't find one in Country S. Rong Ankang recommended Xiao Shu to him."
Guan Xianyi looked at him carefully.
I really didn't think about it in this way before, but now that someone reminded me, I realized that Shu Ming has high brow bones, deep eye sockets, and a high nose bridge, and he does look a bit like a mixed-race!
"The only drawback is that the film he's making this time isn't that award-winning; it's a film he wants to make to commemorate his past experiences.
However, Ojiman proposed that he also wanted to participate in the film. He wanted to direct and act in the film, which meant that the film actually had two male protagonists..."
As Guan Xianyi spoke, he met Shu Ming's slightly smiling expression, and realized that they both understood the other's implication -
But no matter how many flaws there are, it's still worth it!
The domestic film market has never been receptive to art films.
With Shu Ming's influence and appeal, if he plays a leading role, he will definitely be able to make a profit. However, if you really look at the tickets in the end, you will find that:
The name doesn't sound good, and the data doesn't look good either.
But country S is different!
This is a paradise for art films, with support policies tilted to an almost outrageous degree, and several famous film awards are also established here.
In other words, as long as the film is well made, the problem of art films having low box office and difficulty in making a profit basically does not exist here.
Besides, there are fewer and fewer new generation actors in China who can go international in recent years, and the Chinese people will be more tolerant of actors who represent their country abroad.
With the international achievements, when he comes back, it is no longer the book that chooses Shu Ming, but Shu Ming that chooses the book... It is a business that is sure to make money.
The six months of patient waiting were truly worth it!
**
While Shu Ming was concentrating on preparing for the exam, the plot of "Little Secret" was gradually approaching its climax.
Due to industry regulations in recent years, "Little Secrets" filmed the longest number of episodes within the regulations - 40 episodes.
Counting on my fingers, it will only be broadcast until the 15th at most.
The closer we get to mid-June, the faster the pace of the series becomes, and the fog is gradually lifted.
It turns out that everything started with the school bullying that lasted for a whole year during the first year of high school.
The large number of people involved and the complexity of the torture methods made the audience in front of the screen shudder.
At the same time, as Lin Xihe gradually got to know Chen Xuyang, and learned about his family background and the hardships he faced on his way to school, he gradually let down his guard and even developed some inexplicable feelings for Chen Xuyang, believing that Chen Xuyang was not the murderer of his sister.
The reversal is here again!
Lin Qing is not the only victim of this secret school bullying!
At the bottom of this interconnected "food chain", there are actually other people... For example, Chen Xuyang's younger sister who is still in junior high school.
Lin Xihe was so engrossed in his thoughts that when he heard footsteps behind him, he had no time to put Chen Xuyang's backpack back to its original state, which he had rummaged through in search of evidence.
The head teacher's strange voice sounded from behind: "Lin Qing, what are you doing in someone else's seat?"
She was speechless for a moment: "That..."
"Teacher, I asked her to turn it over." Chen Xuyang's voice sounded behind him, like a drop of rain from heaven. "I asked Lin Qing to help find a band-aid in my schoolbag. I accidentally scratched my finger just now."
Lin Xihe was grateful for his help, but also anxiously waiting for Chen Xuyang's reaction, his palms already soaked with sweat.
Does he know that he knows?
Or did he know everything from the beginning to the end?
Only after the teacher's footsteps faded away did their eyes meet.
Then, the screen went black.
…
Urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent!
Please post the sequel soon!
Zhang Su’s card collection was just right, which made the audience’s emotions very high, and there was a lot of “misery”!
What's more, the details of "Little Secret" are also worth digging into.
Editing bloggers on major video platforms who make a living by "interpreting details" also heard the news and rushed over, wanting to securely take in this wave of traffic.
Traffic is a mutual thing. The editors and secondary creation bloggers took advantage of the popularity of "Little Secret", but "Little Secret" is also more attractive because of the rich and colorful secondary creations!
And the CP... There is really no emotional drama between the male and female protagonists in this drama.
Perhaps Lin Xihe had some vague feelings for Chen Xuyang as she got to know him step by step, but the director was subtle in his filming and did not really break the window paper until the finale, and the two of them did not end up together.
But the feeling of CP is very mysterious. Some CPs kiss eight hundred times in one episode, and they are like two plastic flowers without tension. They are beautiful but boring.
Some couples don’t even kiss, and even holding hands is as casual as a dragonfly touching the water.
But it was just a light touch of wrists, and their arms accidentally touched each other while running, which made the audience scream how sweet it was!
Oh my god, this kind of CP with a sense of fate is really so good!
In fact, the public will also dig into the actors' off-screen promotional status... Since the promotion of a drama coincided with Shu Ming's exam time, Duan Miaozhu went to promote it herself.
The public has always been inclined to dote on Shu Ming, and a group of people have already found reasons in their minds.
But the official reason for absence was even more authoritative and shocking...
Oh, you're going to take the exam?
No matter what you have, learning is more important.
The top comment is also very funny:
Chinese people who value schooling throughout their lives...
Accompanied by "Little Secret", a satirical song about school bullying.
This, this, this, what a joke from hell!
Speaking of Shu Ming, Duan Miaozhu's condition is a little different. In fact, this subtle change is not obvious, but it can't resist the audience's magnifying glass!
"If it's not love, why would you hesitate so many times when talking about someone? Why would you say so solemnly, 'He's a very good person'?"
"Alright, stop talking. Now everyone knows that S fought for you and got you a lot of roles back..."
There are also objective evaluations:
"Actually, this play was unexpectedly good for Duan Miaozhu. Not to mention playing two roles...
Duan Miaozhu used to have the image of the national daughter and was likable, but everyone treated her like a child. Her acting skills did not have much delicate emotional expression, which led to her limited acting range and every idol drama she starred in flopped.
But after finishing her performance in "Little Secrets," you'll find she has many more subtle emotions and connotations, and her eyes have a lot of indescribable things, which has suddenly given her the possibility of a wider range of acting."
This is a good thing.
After people have relevant emotional experiences, their acting skills will be improved!
It’s a pity that Duan Miaozhu has already made this progress and felt this way, but Shu Ming... is still a little bit short.
**
If "Love on the Grassland" helped Shu Ming establish his national popularity, then "Little Secret" swept the low-end market!
When Shu Ming finished his last exam, it was the time for the grand finale of "Little Secret".
In just half a month, the audience accompanied Chen Xuyang through his bumpy seventeen years.
Witness how he walked step by step into the abyss of revenge, and then pulled himself back from the edge of breaking the law, and reached out to grab Lin Xihe who was about to go astray.
For the more impulsive and emotional lower-level audiences, this is when they feel the most affection for Chen Xuyang, and it is also the moment when they can best transfer their pity for the character to the actor.
As a result, Shu Ming was still feeling dizzy after finishing his exam, and as soon as he walked out of the school gate, he was immediately surrounded.
There has never been such a grand event!
The entire entrance was blocked, and no one knew where the news had leaked, or if everyone had been waiting there. In short, it was chaos.
Shu Ming was wearing a hat and a mask, and with the help of his elder brother, he squeezed into the car with great difficulty. When the people below saw that Shu Ming had completely disappeared, some of them gave up and left reluctantly, while a small number of them were still blocking the way!
"I sent you a message asking you not to come out on campus. Didn't you see it?"
It was because Guan Xianyi was blocked by the crowd outside the school gate that he was unable to drive in to pick up Shu Ming in time.
Since Shu Ming couldn't see the car, he naturally thought that Guan Xianyi must be waiting for him outside the school, which gave others an opportunity to take advantage of him.
"My phone was turned off during the exam and I didn't have time to turn it on..." When the screen turned on, there were indeed many missed calls and messages.
Orange is experienced. She was playing with her phone calmly in the driver's seat. She was also watching "Little Secrets" and had already seen the ending.
Chen Xuyang received the university admission letter, and Lin Xihe finally understood why Lin Qing jumped off the building that year - it was out of guilt.
It was the guilt she felt after being bullied that led her to bully and isolate others in order to transfer her pain.
This guilt has been haunting and tormenting her for such a long time.
So much so that in four years, she has never completely let it go.
She committed suicide.
Chen Xuhe sat under the shade of a tree and said to Lin Xihe:
"Bullying occurs in layers. It's the system that bullies people, and then it's passed down from generation to generation within the student body. Everyone in this food chain is both a perpetrator and a victim..."
"But I always believe that as long as there is a little fire on this chain, there will always be a moment when it burns to the end, you say."
His voice became softer, and the screen faded to black—
"Yeah?"
The photos are really well taken, no wonder everyone is obsessed with it and wants to chase it at the school gate.
Of course, it’s possible that someone deliberately instigated this, but “Little Secret” attracted all the audiences at once, and the data of the other dramas are so good.
Fans of the drama don’t dare to boast that their own “Little Secret” is a hit drama. They humbly say that it is just a popular drama. But in the eyes of outsiders, this is almost the same as a hit drama.
The theme song of "Little Secret" can be heard everywhere in shopping malls, and advertisements endorsed by the two leading actors can be seen. Among the ten mobile phones on the subway, at least half are watching the drama or watching clips from the drama.
The permission for satellite broadcasting was obtained, but the platform wanted to increase the popularity of the drama and extend the exclusive broadcast time, so they suppressed the show.
However, it can be postponed to August or September at the latest, and it will definitely be broadcast on satellite TV.
The influence of "Little Secrets" is more reflected on the side of investors - don't you see, in just half a month, how many campus suspense drama projects have been launched?
"Return" on the same platform is also a campus suspense type, and is highly anticipated by all parties, so the male and female protagonists fight even more vigorously.
With such a poor atmosphere between the main actors, how could it be broadcast well? ... Chengzi snorted, thinking, I don't think so.
Anyway, he really couldn't leave for a while, and Guan Xianyi in the back row had no intention of nagging Shu Ming any more.
After this incident, this kid will probably never turn off his phone for so long again.
Although this time the power was only turned off for five minutes longer, the consequences were clearly laid out before everyone.
Teach people through experience, and they will learn it in no time!
After some people calmed down and left, and the situation was gradually under control, Guan Xianyi took Zhuang Zheng down to persuade them one by one.
After offering iced milk tea and patiently persuading him, the car was finally able to start.
Shu Ming reclined the chair and curled himself up in the comfortable chair: "I'm so sleepy, Sister Xianyi, I'm going to take a nap first."
This subject was very difficult for him to take the exam for, and he was too busy this year, so it was a bit like a last-minute cram session, and he basically didn't get much sleep these days.
When I returned to the familiar environment, sleepiness came over me like a tide. My hair fell obediently on my forehead, and I felt a little aggrieved and tired.
"Wait a minute, don't go to sleep yet. I've made an appointment with a language teacher for you. Add her contact information first. She'll be with you tonight..."
Guan Xianyi shut up before he finished speaking.
Shu Ming fell asleep.
