Before Wang Xiao could come to his senses, Lin Desheng had already noticed them.
"Huh?" Lin Desheng was a little surprised to meet Lu Yanhe here.
Lu Yanhe immediately smiled, waved to Lin Desheng, and walked forward.
"Uncle Lin, are you here to see Miaomiao?" Lu Yanhe greeted.
Lin Desheng also laughed, nodded, and said, "Yes, you are in school too. I thought you were filming a movie."
"Not yet, we have to wait until summer vacation." Lu Yanhe said, "I still have to go to class now, so it's not convenient to ask for leave."
"Yeah." Lin Desheng's eyes fell on the boy who had just stood with Lu Yanhe. "Are you chatting with your classmates?"
Lu Yanhe looked back and saw that Wang Xiao was still standing there, pretending to be waiting for him. He didn't seem to recognize Lin Desheng and had a nonchalant look on his face.
"..."
However, Lu Yanhe saw through Wang Xiao's pretense and his panicky nature behind his pretended calmness.
"He is the president of our school's Youth Association, Wang Xiao." Lu Yanhe emphasized Wang Xiao's title. "He is my senior, very capable. In the past two years, he has led the team to make our school's Youth Association stronger and stronger."
After Lu Yanhe finished speaking, he found that Lin Desheng didn't react at all.
This doesn't quite fit Lin Desheng's personality.
He looked at Lin Desheng in confusion, and saw that the latter's expression had suddenly changed, and a murderous look appeared in his eyes.
Lu Yanhe really understood it in an instant. Lin Desheng must have heard of Wang Xiao.
"..."
Originally, he wanted to establish a good image of Wang Xiao in front of Lin Desheng. But now it seems that he didn't understand the situation clearly and suddenly ignited a fuse?
Lin Desheng said in a sinister tone: "I said that boy looks a little familiar."
Lu Yanhe: "..."
I guess I've even seen the photos.
At this moment, Lu Yanhe suddenly wanted to slip away.
Why is Wang Xiao here when he is facing this Shura field?
Lu Yanhe immediately said, "Uncle Lin, I have classes later, I have to go to class first."
At this time, Lin Miaomiao's voice came from a distance.
"Dad!" She ran over happily, wearing a pink jacket and a baseball cap.
When she was about to throw herself into her father's arms, she saw the figure looking up at the sky out of the corner of her eye and paused.
Lu Yanhe's eyes were already looking at him with loyalty.
——Your father has found out.
Lin Miaomiao immediately turned around, and under Wang Xiao's surprised gaze, she took Wang Xiao's arm and walked him to Lin Desheng. She looked as if she had been prepared to bring someone to meet him. She said generously, "It's just right that you are here today. Let me formally introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Wang Xiao."
Wang Xiao’s face was full of question marks.
Over the past few years, he has seen a lot of the world in the Youth Association and dealt with all kinds of people. He can be considered the most calm and composed person among his peers. But at this moment, he has no idea how he should respond. He only feels that the scene he is experiencing now is absurd, seemingly orderly but actually chaotic.
He also had to follow Lin Miaomiao's words and say "Hello, uncle" politely.
He looked at the expression of the man in front of him and felt that he was not a good person.
"..."
Lin Desheng looked at his daughter, was silent for a few seconds, and then snorted.
Lin Miaomiao said: "Why did you suddenly come to see me today?"
Lin Desheng said: "Can't I come to see you?"
"You didn't even say hello in advance."
"Let go of his hand first." Lin Desheng couldn't bear it anymore, and pointed at Lin Miaomiao's hand that was holding Wang Xiao's arm.
Lin Miaomiao hugged him even tighter.
"Please don't tell me that you are also the kind of feudal father who would try to control your adult daughter who wants to have a free love relationship." She said bluntly, "I will be very disappointed in you."
Lin Desheng took a breath.
Lu Yanhe was filled with emotion.
Lin Miaomiao's mouth is always toxic and will attack anyone as soon as it opens. No matter who she is facing, she is 100% toxic and will not give any discount.
Lu Yanhe thought, as Lin Miaomiao's father, Uncle Lin should have recognized what his daughter looked like a long time ago, right?
It won’t cause you to get angry, right?
Lu Yanhe looked at Lin Desheng worriedly.
-
At night, Lu Yanhe traveled on a night journey to Jiangzhi.
On the high-speed train, Lu Yanhe was chatting with Chen Siqi and talked about what happened during the day.
"I wouldn't dare write that in a script," Lu Yanhe said with emotion. "But it's a pity that you weren't there. That scene was really wonderful. Lin Miaomiao... I think if a screenwriter writes a character based on her one day, she will definitely become a big hit with her indiscriminate offensive language skills."
Chen Siqi: "Tell me quickly, what happened next? What is Mr. Lin's attitude?"
"What attitude could Mr. Lin have? After all, she was his daughter. In the end, he angrily lectured them both, told Wang Xiao to behave himself, and told Lin Miaomiao to go home more often for dinner, and then left."
Chen Siqi: "I am indeed surprised by Lin Miaomiao's fighting ability."
Lu Yanhe: "Your fighting ability is not much inferior."
Chen Siqi: “What?”
"I mean, your fighting ability against Yu Jiang is also terrifying. You are different from Lin Miaomiao. You only target people you hate, while she attacks indiscriminately." Lu Yanhe corrected immediately.
Chen Siqi snorted. "I haven't told you yet, didn't Yu Jiang work with Ruyi Films before? Their first film together is out, and they will go to the Jose-La-Señora Film Festival to premiere and sell the film."
“Are they also shortlisted?”
"It's not shortlisted, but you can still go to the film festival without being shortlisted. If you sign up, the festival officials will certainly welcome you as long as you have a good lineup." Chen Siqi said, "This movie "Flowers on the Stars" is still very popular. The male lead is Lang Xia, and the female lead is a newcomer. The trailer was released today. Have you seen it?"
"No, I didn't notice."
"This original novel was also very popular before, selling hundreds of thousands of copies." Chen Siqi said, "But at that time, best-selling novels could sell so many copies. It's rare that it can still sell hundreds of thousands of copies now."
Lu Yanhe said: "It seems that we will meet in Hexi."
"Based on my understanding of this woman, she will definitely not miss this opportunity to hype the news." Chen Siqi said, "You'd better be careful not to let this woman get entangled with you and hype the news."
Lu Yanhe said: "I feel like I can't avoid it. This time I'm going to announce at the Jose-La-Señora Film Festival that I wrote, directed and starred in Love Letter, and I'm also using a newcomer as the female lead. I'm sure there will be some media outlets that want to stir up trouble."
Chen Siqi said: "If you direct yourself, people will doubt you, after all, you have never directed before."
"Yu Jiang must be the one who questioned it." Lu Yanhe said.
"You're right. Let me put this here first. If she doesn't have any plans to be a director herself in the future, she will definitely ridicule you for being too greedy, wanting to do everything, and not being calm enough. You might mess it up yourself."
Lu Yanhe smiled.
After chatting with Chen Siqi, Lu Yanhe searched the Internet for the movie Yu Jiang.
There are indeed quite a lot of people discussing this movie online, and it is obvious that it is a very popular film.
Lang Xia also has many fans. His fame has been rising gradually in the past two years. With the help of He Yingzi, he has now become a well-known first-line actor. Now he is starring in a movie, and his fans are very concerned about the movie, as if they will not be satisfied if the box office does not exceed 100 million.
Because of the original novel, everyone already knows what the plot of this movie is like.
As soon as Lu Yanhe saw it, he immediately understood. Two young people were in love, but the male protagonist suffered from a rare disease and would soon die. In this situation, the two people were entangled in a sad love story with one wanting to break up and the other unwilling to do so.
This kind of story was very popular as a novel at the time, but it is not popular with the audience now.
The main reason is that I have experienced too many characters where the male protagonist is sick and will soon die.
Everybody is tired of it.
Lu Yanhe clicked on the trailer and took a look. His contemptuous mood immediately disappeared.
Although this movie is cliché, it is still quite attractive.
Even Lu Yanhe, who doesn't like to watch melodramatic plots, was infected by the emotions of collapse, despair, stubbornness and hope shown by the young lovers in the trailer when facing the shadow of death.
The two actors performed very well in this melodramatic plot, and there was a lot of tension that captured the audience.
This was something Lu Yanhe had never expected.
Judging from this trailer alone and the level of discussion online now, it is easy to imagine that this movie will not fail.
Lu Yanhe's mood suddenly became serious and nervous.
He was thinking that the threshold for viewing an artistic film like "Love Letter" must be higher than that of "Flowers on the Stars".
"Flowers on the Stars" should be able to achieve high box office in the sinking markets as well.
This is not necessarily the case with Love Letter.
Lu Yanhe originally wanted to let the word of mouth of "Love Letter" ferment slowly. Should he make some adjustments?
Along the way, Lu Yanhe was thinking about this question.
-
After thinking about it all the way, Lu Yanhe came to the conclusion when he left the station. He still felt that these were all things to come later and that the movie should be made first.
The movie has been shot and edited, and we’ll talk about what happens next.
Lu Yanhe took a deep breath, looked at the night sky above his head, and said to himself, don't be influenced by others, don't have too many distracting thoughts, do it according to your own ideas, only if you do it well first, can you get good results.
He took a photo of the starlight and posted it on Weibo: The starlight will not let down those who travel on the road.
Fans liked and commented.
——Go to bed early.
——Xiao Lu, don’t stay up late. You won’t be handsome if you have dark circles under your eyes.
——Who said that? Even if our President Lu has dark circles under his eyes, he is still the most handsome giant panda.
——If you want to talk about loss, it’s you who suffers.
——Why are there so many night owls? Don’t you guys need to sleep? (I work the night shift and can’t sleep even if I want to).
——I just finished the test paper and now I am squatting in the toilet. I can only look at my phone. The college entrance examination is coming soon. Please give me your blessing.
……
When Lu Yanhe saw this message, he stopped and replied to him: Come on, do well in the exam, and I’ll wait for your good news.
The driver was hired by Wang Biao in Jiangzhi and came from Jiangzhi specifically to pick them up.
Originally, Zou Dong said that he could also drive.
Lu Yanhe was worried that Zou Dong would have to stay with him for a whole day tomorrow, so he decided to find another driver.
He put down the chair and said, "I'll take a nap. Call me when we get there. You guys take a nap too."
Wang Biao nodded and said, "Brother Xiao Lu, Brother Dong, you guys go to sleep. I took a nap before going out, and I'm not sleepy at all. I'll wake you up when we get there."
When Zou Dong saw Lu Yanhe take out headphones and eye mask from his bag and put them on, he nodded to Wang Biao, indicating that he should call him immediately if anything happened. He also closed his eyes, leaned back in the chair, clasped his hands on his chest, and closed his eyes to rest.
Wang Biao had indeed had a good sleep before coming out.
He knew he had to stay up late tonight. He also knew that Zou Dong would have to accompany Lu Yanhe to scout locations tomorrow. So he took the initiative to take on the responsibility of staying up all night. Anyway, he could sleep in the car tomorrow. (End of this chapter)
