Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 443: Location, Wang Churan's Ambition

"It's so funny. Other people walking on the red carpet can't be chased away, but Nanda's red carpet looks like she can't wait to walk."

"I reasonably suspect that Nan Da had no intention of walking the red carpet at all, and only walked the red carpet reluctantly because he wanted to show off with Wang Churan."

"I was saying that with the status and position of Nan Da, there was no way the Magnolia Festival would not let him be the finale. It seems that he can't wait to enter the venue, right?"

“Nanda: I just want to go in and sit down, get through this trip, and get off work quickly.”

"But to be honest, this Wang Churan has been on the hot search list several times along with Nanda. I didn't like her at first, but today when I saw her standing next to Nanda, it was strange that they looked quite good together. To be honest, I love her looks."

"She is a beauty to begin with, with a very impressive face. No wonder Nan Da praised her for her appearance as a beautiful lady. She also has a great figure. Her long legs are amazing. It's only because Nan Da is tall that he wouldn't be able to handle her height otherwise."

"I feel like I'm done. I feel like a perfect match with all of these female celebrities who have had scandals with Nanda recently!"

"Whatever, taking everything will only give me a balanced diet!"

"Anyway, as long as NCU doesn't make an official announcement, I'll support anyone, hehe!"

……

There was a heated discussion on the barrage about the appearance of Lin Li and Wang Churan. With his outstanding appearance, Wang Churan unexpectedly won the recognition of many of Lin Li's fans.

On the other side, Lin Li and his companion also entered the inner field under the guidance of the staff.

As soon as the two entered, they were met with unanimous gazes from everyone in the venue.

Wang Churan subconsciously tightened her hand around Lin Li's arm. Lin Li patted her arm to signal her to relax, then nodded slightly to the gazes of the crowd, and continued to move forward under the guidance of the staff.

“Nanda!”

“Here at Nanda!”

"Nanda, Nanda, I am your fan!"

……

The cheers that echoed throughout the entire venue suddenly broke out, and the sound was so loud that it seemed to lift the roof off the house.

The backstage of the performing arts center was like a stepped seating area, spreading out in a fan shape to both sides. The middle area and the back area were all ordinary audiences. After seeing Lin Li's brief silence, as Lin Li nodded, the audience immediately came to their senses and shouted loudly at Lin Li, causing the people in the circle in the fan-shaped handle area in front to smack their lips and look at him frequently.

Lin Li walked down the middle aisle without any airs and clapped and high-fived the audience on both sides from time to time, causing waves of screams.

When they were about to reach the performers' area in front, Lin Li turned around, pressed his hand, and signaled everyone to keep quiet. The audience also gave him face and quickly quieted down.

The smile on Lin Li's face grew even wider, and he nodded to everyone again to express his gratitude.

Wang Churan followed Lin Li all the way, watching him interact with the audience, her eyes never leaving him. She felt that Lin Li was so casual, with a bright smile and a gentle voice, that she wanted to live in his gentle eyes...

After calming down the enthusiastic audience, Lin Li turned around and stretched out his arms to Wang Churan without looking away. Wang Churan was startled, then he smiled brightly, raised his hand and put it in Lin Li's arms, and continued to walk forward with him.

When we walked to the front cast and crew area, the situation became different again.

As Lin Li approached, the area was like a tiger suddenly breaking into the forest, and celebrities on both sides stood up and bowed to greet him.

For a moment, the audience at the back saw the area where Lin Li passed by as if it were a solitary boat, with people on both sides swaying like ripples on the water. They stood up, bent over, and sat down one after another, repeating this process continuously until they reached the front row.

Wang Churan was terrified all the way, even though she knew these people were not targeting her. But seeing familiar faces acting like that in front of her made her very nervous. The smile on her face became a little stiff, and she felt more tired than after a day of filming.

"So majestic!"

In the fourth row, where the crew of Entrepreneurship Era was located, Song Yi looked at Lin Li who had already walked to the front row, crossed his hands in front of him and sighed.

"Of course, after all, this person's status is not as simple as it seems."

Yang Ying, who was sitting next to Song Yi, looked in the direction she was looking at after hearing her words, and agreed with a reluctant look.

Thanks to Huang Xiaoming, she naturally knew about the circle of this teacher Nan Xun, which was beyond the understanding of many people in the circle, as well as his terrifying network of relationships.

"He's a great director, of course he's awesome."

"Hey, isn't that the deputy director of Magic City TV?"

Song Yi responded with a laugh, then let out a cry of surprise. Seeing several people around looking at her, she hurriedly lowered her head with embarrassment and smiled apologetically.

"No wonder, that's what I told you."

Yang Ying looked at the scene not far away, her eyes flickering.

In the front row, Lin Li was led to the seat closest to the center. The staff member indicated that the two of them were seated there before he bowed and walked away.

As Lin Li arrived, judges Gao Qunshu, Xu Fan and others in the front row stood up and greeted Lin Li and exchanged pleasantries.

After some pleasantries, a middle-aged woman sitting in the center stood up and faced Lin Li with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Nanxun. I'm Yin Xin, the deputy director of Magic City TV. I've heard a lot about you."

"Hello, Mr. Yin, I don't deserve to be called that. I'm Lin Li, and I've heard Mr. Wang mention Mr. Yin a long time ago. I hope we can have more cooperation with our Magic City Satellite TV in the future."

Lin Li held Yin Xin's outstretched hand, smiling as usual.

Wang Jianer had called him as early as when the Magnolia Organizing Committee invited him, so he naturally knew how much the person in front of him valued him.

When he got closer, he knew who Yin Xin was at a glance. After all, she was the only one who could hold that position.

"Of course. Now everyone in our station is waiting for the intimate broadcast. I personally am also looking forward to the intimate broadcast effect."

Yin Xin withdrew her hand and said to Lin Li with a kind smile.

"I believe I will not disappoint Mr. Yin." "By the way, this is Wang Churan, who also plays Miss Wang in Fan Hua."

Lin Li responded confidently, then raised his hand to introduce Wang Churan, who was standing beside him with a reserved smile, to Yin Xin.

"Of course I know. This girl is really generous. No wonder Teacher Nanxun values ​​her so much."

"Chu Ran, right? I heard you're studying at the Shanghai Theatre Academy?"

"Fanhua is a project that Shanghai TV attaches great importance to. We look forward to your performance."

Yin Xin lifted Wang Churan's hand and placed it in the palm of her left hand. She patted the back of her hand with her right hand, and her smile was as gentle as a spring breeze.

"Yes, Yin Tai, I am studying acting at the Shanghai Theatre Academy."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yin. I will definitely do my best and play the role well."

Wang Churan nodded repeatedly, his voice trembling with nervousness.

"Don't be nervous. Look, we have been standing and chatting for a long time. Please take a seat, Teacher Nanxun. Chu Ran should also take a seat."

Yin Xin patted Wang Churan's hand again and seemed to have just reacted. She asked Lin Li to sit down.

"Okay, please take a seat, Yin Tai."

After exchanging pleasantries, Yin Xin and Lin Li sat down together, and Wang Churan followed closely and sat next to Lin Li.

After seeing Lin Li and the other person sit down, Gao Qunshu and other members of the judging panel sat down one after another.

Behind them, a group of performers had different thoughts. If Lin Li's young face appearing in the front row was a bit abrupt, then Wang Churan's position made the female stars present jealous.

After all, given Lin Li's status and position, as well as his recent collaboration with Shanghai TV and Shanghai Film Group, it was not surprising that he appeared there.

But Wang Churan, a newcomer in the entertainment industry, was able to sit in the front row, which is completely impossible under normal circumstances.

The entertainment industry is a place of fame and fortune, and whenever there is a large-scale event, its cruelty is revealed.

The topic of whether "seniority-based promotion" or "popularity is the key" is a long-lasting one in the circle, and every mention of it will lead to a war of words.

Generally speaking, traditional award ceremonies place more emphasis on seniority. For example, for awards like the Magnolia Award, except for special figures like Yin Xin, members of the jury and directors and screenwriters with outstanding achievements and seniority will definitely be in the first and second rows.

Actors and veteran actors with both strength and experience like Yu Hewei and He Bing are usually in the third row, followed by young actors like Yang Ying and Li Wei.

Finally, there are some insignificant new actors.

Normally, Wang Churan should be sitting after the fourth row.

But just because she was Lin Li's female companion, she was able to sit directly in the front row.

For a moment, many people in the field had different thoughts. They looked at Lin Li in the front and began to make plans.

Especially the actresses, who doesn’t want to replace Wang Churan?
Wang Churan put her hands on the hem of her skirt at her knees and listened quietly to the conversation between Lin Li and Yin Xin with her head turned sideways. Although she did not understand a lot of what they were talking about, the more she understood, the more admiration she had in her eyes.

When Lin Li spoke seriously, there was a faint smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and he looked very relaxed.

When Yin Xin was talking, Lin Li pretended to listen with a serious look. Occasionally, when her eyes glanced at him, he would frown at her. He exuded an elegant temperament.

Wang Churan couldn't tell which one was the real Lin Li, the playboy whom she seduced with a room card, the great writer and director who shone brightly in every public occasion, or the elegant and gentle teacher Nan Xun in front of her.

But it seemed that no matter which one it was, she was fascinated by it.

Wang Churan felt like she was possessed. Lin Li was all in her heart and eyes, and she didn't want to take her eyes off him for even a moment. Even when Lin Li was not with her, she would often watch some of his previous videos, search for his photos online, or stare at the photos she took of him and herself.

She would often send messages to Lin Li, and if Lin Li replied to her promptly, she would hum a song happily.

When Lin Li was slow to reply, she would stare at the chat box between them and keep telling herself that he was in class, working, or busy with other things.

After finally receiving Lin Li's reply, she was in a very happy mood for a long time afterwards.

I am not at your side, but I am controlled by you. Maybe it is like this.

If possible, she wanted to stick to him all the time and never be separated from him for a moment.

But she knew that she couldn't do that. She had to be obedient, more obedient than any other woman in Lin Li's life.

In this way, Lin Li will love her more.

Just like it is now.

But she was not willing to just leave it like this. She clearly remembered the look Lin Li gave her when she and Meng Ziyi had been having fun together and Lin Li mentioned Tian Xiwei.

He was cold and emotionless, as if he would kick me away if I said one more word!

Afterwards, she thought it through and realized that she was a step too late and her experience with Lin Li was not glorious, so she chose to lie low.

She believed that as long as she treated Lin Li as her everything, Lin Li would love her more and more.

So far, she's doing the right thing.

But, she wanted more than that.

She wanted more, more...

As Wang Churan's thoughts were in a mess, the time came to eight o'clock and the award ceremony officially began.
