The Quiet Rise of Entertainment Superstars

In recent days, there was often a person wearing a mask hanging around the crew, and everyone thought he was a paparazzi, so the door of the studio was strictly controlled and one had to scan one's face to enter.

Wu Hao felt that Mr. Cheng was the most dangerous person, after all, everyone on the Internet wanted to see Mr. Cheng's face. I heard that someone offered a reward, but within a few minutes, the official blocked his account.

In short, we should be on guard against others, but we should not have the intention to harm others.

Wu Hao always went with Ma Teng to escort Xiao Yue to the car.

Cai Zekai felt very frustrated. Whenever he searched the film and television city for a day without success, he would scold himself for being stupid. After playing a few songs on the piano, he would happily run to the film and television city again the next day.

He even suspected that he was a masochist. If he sent someone, he would feel that he was not sincere or genuine enough.

In order not to expose himself, he deliberately bought several cheap black sportswear.

Wearing a baseball cap, a mask and a black sportswear, he looks a bit like a paparazzi. Why?

Ye Wangzhou couldn't understand his behavior and thought that he had learned the wrong way abroad and was becoming eccentric.

You said that you are a pianist and a first-class arranger after all, and your status is there. If you want to find someone, you can just use your connections to ask for help. But Cai Zekai insisted on going, thinking that it was insincere and that only by going there in person could he have that sense of accomplishment.

There are always many film crews shooting in Beijing's film and television cities. There is a large flow of people coming and going. If you say you want to find someone, it is undoubtedly as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

But hard work pays off. After a few days of wandering around, and the information he got from Teacher Huang, he at least knew that the person he was looking for was called Cheng Xingyue, and worked at Tianyu. Teacher Huang just wouldn't tell him the rest of the information.

If Cai Zekai had searched online, he might have found some information about the person he was looking for, but he had been offline for three years and had forgotten how to search for information.

This time, Cai Zekai saw a studio that was particularly guarded. After asking others, he found out that it was the filming location of Tianyu, where they were filming the movie "Avatar". Wasn't this the crew he was looking for? They must be here.

Cai Zekai actually felt a sense of excitement, the kind of feeling that comes from finally reaching the shore after going through so much trouble.

He decided to wait at the door to appear sincere. Besides, there was only one exit so he would always be able to wait for someone.

However, he forgot that there was also an exit for transporting vehicles. Xiaoyue always took the bus to and from get off work through that exit.

He waited in the studio for several days, but he still didn't see the person he was looking for until they changed the studio for shooting.

But everyone in the "Avatar" crew knew that there were paparazzi lurking outside the studio recently, so everyone was asked to be careful.

October is almost here, and although the weather is getting colder, netizens' hearts are burning with excitement, especially those book fans who love the book "Snow Mountain Flying Fox". They are really looking forward to it and afraid of it.

What they are looking forward to is that Lou Zhongyue’s first martial arts novel has finally been adapted into a movie, but what they are afraid of is that the actors must not ruin the Hu Fei and Miao Ruolan in their minds.

Finally, on the last day of September, Tianyu released the makeup photos of the main actors of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox".

The internet was immediately in an uproar, with some book fans holding the final photos on their phones in one hand and interacting with the mouse with the other. When the description of the characters in the novel appeared on their computers, they discovered that they were exactly the same.

"Tianyu's costume design is simply amazing. They can actually restore the image of the characters. It's amazing."

"Have you noticed that the costumes in Lou Zhongyue's novels actually have a different kind of beauty, a kind of ancient and exotic feeling."

"Yes, look at the costumes of Miao Ruolan, played by Xue Ying'er. She actually looks like a lady from a noble family. It's amazing!"

Soon, a Chinese historian came out to explain: "This costume was not made up by Lou Zhongyue out of thin air. It was the style of the costumes of some nomadic peoples in our country hundreds of years ago. It has historical reference value."

"Indeed, the clothes worn by nomadic people at that time were of this style, but not as luxurious as those in the final photos."

In response to such online discussions, Tianyu officials gave an explanation: "All the actors' costumes and outfits were instructed by Mr. Lou Zhongyue. Mr. Lou Zhongyue drew the image of each character very seriously and responsibly, and we restored them according to his requirements. Unexpectedly, the effect was very good. Thank you Mr. Lou Zhongyue." Finally, they also tagged Lou Zhongyue's Weibo account.

"Oh my god, I'm so looking forward to the broadcast of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" at 8 o'clock tomorrow night."

"Lou Lao Mo is so powerful, can he also draw?"

“We strongly request that the authorities release the character drawing of Lou Lao Mo. We want to see it.”

Then many netizens followed and strongly requested to watch it.

Tianyu officials are not stupid. Such a good publicity opportunity not only elevates Lou Zhongyue, but also creates momentum for "Snow Mountain Flying Fox".

Not long after, the official released the character drawings of the male and female protagonists.

Netizens were stunned by the painting, which was so realistic and completely different from traditional paintings.

"I think we have underestimated Lou Zhongyue. Look at his novels. Without a certain cultural background, he couldn't have written them. Then look at the poem he gave to netizens and today's painting. They all show his talent. And the fairy tales and fables he wrote show that he is a loving person. I think he may be an artist, an old artist with both virtue and art."

"The above person, I think what you said makes sense. I can't say enough compliments, but Lou Zhongyue is awesome."

"Because of what you said, I am embarrassed to call him Lou Lao Mo anymore. I always feel that it is not respectful enough..."

In short, the popularity of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" and Lou Zhongyue on the Internet has reached an unprecedented height.

As the saying goes, the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. Lou Zhongyue never spoke, but some writers who wrote books in the martial arts, children's and short story sections were not happy about it.

Previously, they had been suppressed by Lou Zhongyue for so long because their books were not as good as his, and they were already feeling unhappy about it, but since they were not as skilled as him, there was nothing to say.

However, netizens are exaggerating when they praise Lou Zhongyue as an artist. In comparison, these writers are like a pile of cow dung.

The second writer ranked in the martial arts section is Zhang Ding. Before Lou Zhongyue started writing martial arts novels, he was the overlord of the martial arts section. When "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" was updated and completed at an extremely fast speed, he was caught off guard.

He also wrote a private message to Lou Zhongyue, but unfortunately he never received a reply, but he was very angry.

Then Lou Zhongyue wrote "The Deer and the Cauldron", which completely trampled him under his feet.

Zhang Ding also thought about fighting against Lou Zhongyue, but his own fans rebelled first, saying that he was too perfunctory to update 6,000 words a day, and asked him to update 20,000 or 30,000 words a day like Lou Zhongyue. Isn't this asking for his life? Do you really think that everyone is like that beast Lou Zhongyue? Even if he doesn't sleep, he can't write that much in a day and a night.

At that time, I also contacted the novel website with other writers, but unfortunately the official ignored it. What else can I do? I can only suppress my anger.

Later, Zhang Ding was even more annoyed by Lou Zhongyue. The fairy tales made Lou Zhongyue a lot of money. The fables that seemed to be finished were also very popular among adults and children. Adults and children, including his son, liked Lou Zhongyue's fairy tales and fables. His wife even bought a copy of "Lou Zhongyue's Fairy Tales" and placed it by his son's bedside.

Lou Zhongyue eroded his life like this, but he tolerated it considering that the content was good for his children. He also tolerated Lou Zhongyue's martial arts novels being made into TV series, but he absolutely could not tolerate saying that Lou Zhongyue was an artist based on his one poem and two paintings.

Zhang Ding wrote on Weibo: "Artists usually refer to people whose main professional activity is to create, perform and display works of art. Their works cover multiple art fields such as painting, sculpture, music, dance, drama, and film. Through their unique creativity and skills, artists transform personal emotions, social phenomena or human experience into works of art with aesthetic value, thereby triggering resonance and thinking among the audience. May I ask, apart from his novels, what else does Lou Zhongyue have to show off? Don't mention his poems to me, because one poem is not enough to represent his talent for poetry. And those two paintings, I don't even know what school they belong to, but they brag about how good his paintings are. Say no to some people's mindless boasting, please purify our cultural circle."

Many other writers followed his post and commented: "Yes, Lou Zhongyue is just a coding machine, and has nothing to do with being an artist. Please don't insult the word 'artist'."

The storm caused by this writer swept the entire network, and even Tianyu officials could not find a way to suppress these public opinions for a while. But they didn't know how to deal with it. After all, the matter was caused by Tianyu. They could only contact Lao Xing of the novel website and ask him to explain the matter to Xiaoyue. Tianyu would definitely cooperate with Lou Zhongyue to deal with this public relations crisis.

When Xiaoyue found out about this, two hours had passed. Lou Zhongyue's fans had been arguing with fans of other writers for a long time.

"Tianyu feels very sorry about this matter. It was originally a good thing, but it was messed up by those writers."

"I understand. I'll fix it."

Xiaoyue opened her Weibo account, which she had only visited twice, and wrote: “Artists transform the world they experience into works of art through the unique artistic language and means of expression of each art genre. I admit that I haven’t achieved that yet, but I am on the way to becoming an artist. Jealousy itself is a kind of envy, and slander itself is a kind of admiration. Therefore, I should be happy that someone is jealous and slanders me. Jealousy comes from greed, not from virtue and beauty. What aspect of me are you jealous of? Feel free to tell me.” Then, she directly tagged Zhang Ding, who was the most active person on the Internet.

When Lou Zhongyue’s book fans saw that he had posted the message, they all went to the post. When they saw the content of the post, they all laughed.

"Hahaha, let me explain. Lou Lao Mo said that Zhang Ding envied and looked up to him, and now he is slandering him because he is blinded by greed, and finally he even issued a declaration of war. Lou Lao Mo is awesome, he is not afraid of anything, he is so confident."

"Lou Lao Mo is trying to prove that he is worthy of the title of artist and is ready to surpass Zhang Ding."

"Lou Zhongyue is so awesome. Since you question whether I am an artist, even though I have never admitted it, I will confirm this title today. If you don't agree, let's have a competition!"

"Lou Zhongyue is really domineering and arrogant. I like her so much..."
