Entertainment: For me, reverse love is the most deadly

If it is delayed too long, the audience's enthusiasm may be exhausted and may even arouse their disgust.

The person in charge of the Penguin side frowned, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "What Mr. Lu said is not without reason. However, we cannot turn a blind eye to the quality issues. The model of producing and broadcasting at the same time does require extreme caution. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous."

Lu Bai nodded and said in a deep voice, "I understand your concerns, but we can take measures to ensure the quality of the series. For example, we can conduct strict internal review before broadcasting to ensure that each episode meets high quality standards. At the same time, we can strengthen interaction with the audience, collect and feedback their opinions in a timely manner, so as to make timely adjustments and optimizations to the plot."

"Okay, if it's as Mr. Lu said, then I think it's acceptable to broadcast it three weeks later." The Penguin head's expression eased a little, and he was obviously persuaded.

"Three weeks?" Lu Bai shook his head and denied it. "No, I mean it will be broadcast next week."

These words came out like thunder out of the blue.

Not only were the Penguin staff shocked, but even Park Hyatt's planning department was stunned.

Next week? Mr. Lu is even bolder than they thought!

Although they did not agree with this proposal in their hearts, no one dared to speak out against it - this was Lu Bai!
Penguin wanted to raise objections, but Lu Bai's casual remark "My next film and television drama is already on the agenda" silenced them.

"Since President Lu has made the decision, we must go all out. From now on, we must formulate a more detailed countdown plan to ensure that every link is foolproof."

After Penguin learned that Lu Bo had plans for a new drama, they no longer had any objection.

No matter what the final outcome of this drama is, Lu Bai’s fame and popularity are indisputable facts.

Lu Bai may be able to withstand a failure, but if Penguin misses the opportunity to cooperate with Lu Bai, it may miss out on a huge traffic dividend.

As a result, Lu Bai's proposal was passed smoothly without any objection.

Immediately afterwards, the two teams quickly took action.

After learning the news, Penguin's publicity department immediately started planning various warm-up activities to build momentum for next week's broadcast.

They ingeniously produced a series of fascinating trailers, skillfully combining and editing the best clips and gripping plots from the series, and then released them widely on major video platforms and social networks.

With the powerful background of its parent company, Penguin Video instantly became a hot topic on the Internet!
The attention of countless viewers was firmly attracted and their curiosity about "Celebrating the New Year" was completely ignited!

"Oh my god! It's airing next week?"

"It's amazing! This speed is simply amazing!"

"You really dote on your fans. I thought we would have to wait a long time!"

"Wow, this trailer is awesome, the feature film will definitely be even better!"

"With Lu Bo's participation in the production and many talented actors, this drama is definitely worth watching."

"I can't wait to prepare my little stool and watch "Celebration of the New Year" next week."

However, while attracting countless expectant eyes, it is also accompanied by countless questioning voices.

"The quality of the broadcast will surely be greatly compromised if it is broadcast in such a hurry. I don't hold out any hope."

"I know it's just hype, the quality is definitely not good, it's probably another bad drama."

"Editing and broadcasting at the same time is irresponsible to the audience and is purely for the purpose of making money."

"Anything produced by Penguin is bound to be bad, especially those adapted from novels, which are extremely bad!"

"I didn't expect Lu Bai to become a tool to make money! I've turned from a fan to a hater!"

“It feels like it’s just exploiting the audience’s enthusiasm and feelings, and I don’t have any favorable feelings towards the show.”

Similar criticisms are endless.

However, these insults did not have any impact on the production team.

They know very well that only practical actions and high-quality works can respond to these doubts.

In other words, they simply don't have the time to pay attention to these negative voices.

At this moment, they are concentrating on the intense and orderly work.

Even Bai Lu hasn't seen Lu Bai for almost a week.

During this period, Lu Bai spent almost the entire day in the editing room, eating and drinking there.

Bai Lu felt helpless and distressed about this.

She had always thought that Lu Bai was a casual person, but she didn't expect that he had such a desperate side.

But Bai Lu also understood that all of Lu Bai's efforts were for their future.

Therefore, Bai Lu decided to provide support to Lu Bai in her own way without affecting his work.

She quietly ordered delicious food and refreshing drinks for the staff in the editing room, hoping that everyone could feel a little warmth in their busy schedule.

At the same time, Bai Lu also used her social media influence to actively promote "Celebrating the New Year".

She shared some interesting anecdotes from the filming process and her deep understanding of the role, successfully attracting the attention and expectations of many fans.

Led by Bai Lu, other actors also joined the promotion and contributed their own efforts to the series.

The content they released not only allowed the audience to have a deeper understanding of "Celebrating the New Year", but also alleviated external doubts to a certain extent.

……

In the blink of an eye, a week passed quietly.

As the broadcast date approached, the tension among the entire production team reached its peak.

Park Hyatt Media, inside the editing room.

"Okay, let's get off work early today."

"Team Leader Chen is organizing a dinner and KTV event tonight, and the company will cover all expenses."

"Also, give everyone three days of paid vacation!"

“Once the project is successfully completed, there will be no shortage of bonuses and travel benefits!”

After refining the content of the first four episodes, Lu Bai announced that all employees would be given a long vacation.

Upon hearing the news, the employees cheered and shouted "Long live President Lu."

Soon, Wang Zhi and Lu Bai were the only ones left in the editing room.

"Director Wang, don't you want to go back and rest for a while?" Lu Bai asked with a smile.

"Do you think I can rest?" Wang Zhi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Celebration and New Year" is not only the result of Lu Bai's hard work, but also the work that Wang Zhi has devoted all his efforts to.

"Then I'll leave first. Remember to tell me when the results come out in the evening." Lu Bai left without looking back, leaving Wang Zhi with a free and easy back.

Lu Bai hasn't seen his lovely wife for a long time, and he misses her so much.

Wang Zhi looked at his back and couldn't help shaking her head and laughing: "When can I be as carefree as Mr. Lu?"

……

As Saturday arrived, all the audiences waited in front of their TV or computer screens. The air was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation, as if a grand audio-visual feast was about to begin.

At this moment, in addition to the eager audience, practitioners in the performing arts, film and television circles and even most of the entertainment industry are focusing on the grand premiere of "Celebrating the New Year".

As we all know, if the data performance of "Celebrating New Year" is eye-catching, then the production company behind it - Park Hyatt Media will have an opportunity to take off!
Lu Bai's identity will also undergo a dramatic transformation from an actor and singer to a legendary screenwriter in the film and television industry.

It is worth mentioning that Lu Bai has been involved in the film and television industry for less than a year, but he has already made a name for himself with two masterpieces that have both good reputation and ratings. Such brilliant achievements will undoubtedly win a great reputation for Park Hyatt Media!

Looking into the future, as long as Park Hyatt Media holds the golden signboard of Lu Bai, its development path will surely be smooth and bright.

However, having said that, if the performance of "Celebration of the New Year" fails to meet expectations, what awaits Lu Bai will be overwhelming doubts and heavy pressure.

Those fans who once flocked to him because of his fame might turn against him overnight and accuse him of making wrong decisions and lack of ability.

The entertainment industry is unpredictable and one failure can cause a person to fall from the peak to the bottom.

Lu Bai might even be labeled with negative labels such as "arrogant", "incompetent", and "out of ideas".

On this night, "Celebrating the New Year" and Lu Bai became the focus of heated discussion among netizens.

Under the attention of the public, "Celebrating the New Year" finally unveiled its mysterious veil and officially met with the audience!

As the melodious opening song came to an end, the scene slowly unfolded. To everyone's surprise, the first person to appear was not Fan Xian played by Lu Bai, but the young Fan Xian, exquisitely interpreted by child star Lin Rui.

Although Lin Rui is still young, his acting skills appear quite lively and natural.

As soon as he appeared on the stage, he displayed the cleverness and intelligence of young Fan Xian to perfection.

Those clear and bright eyes reveal curiosity and fearlessness towards the world, and his small body contains unyielding stubbornness.

Whether in the relaxed interaction with the servants in the mansion or in facing sudden moments of crisis, Lin Rui can accurately grasp the personality traits of young Fan Xian and bring this character to life.

The audience was quickly attracted by this cute and brave little character. Even though the story had not yet officially unfolded, everyone was already conquered by the charm of little Fan Xian.

The comments on the barrage were full of praise for Lin Rui:

“This little actor is amazing!”

"Little Fan Xian is so cute, and his acting is superb!"

“I’m really looking forward to the development of the plot later!”

The camera closely follows the figure of young Fan Xian as he shuttles through the quaint courtyard.

The exquisite scenery and delicate picture texture make the audience feel as if they are personally on the scene, in that distant and ancient era.

In the courtyard, pavilions and towers are scattered around in an orderly manner, the carved railings and the simple tiles complement each other, and every detail reveals the ingenuity of the production team.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, sprinkling onto the ground in patches, forming golden spots of light.

As the camera moves slowly, the audience's attention is attracted by the pond in the courtyard.

There, lotus leaves are continuous and lotus flowers are in full bloom, like a vivid picture scroll.

At this time, the background music sounded slowly like a trickle of water. The melodious melody and the magnificent picture complemented each other, making people intoxicated.

The barrage once again set off a wave of enthusiasm, and the audience left messages of praise:

“This setting is absolutely beautiful!”

“The background music is so good!”

“The production team is so dedicated!”

“It feels like looking at an ancient painting come to life.”

“The quality of this show is amazing!”

“This is a true conscientious production!”

Some viewers are eagerly looking forward to it:

"When will Lu Bai appear?"

At this moment, in his warm home, Lu Bai is enjoying Bai Lu's careful feeding.

On the TV screen, the plot of "Celebrating the New Year" is slowly unfolding.

Lu Bai looked at the little Fan Xian in the picture, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

"This little guy acted really well."

Bai Lu agreed with a smile. Although the filming of Little Fan Xian had already been completed when she joined the crew and she had no chance to meet Lin Rui, she still praised Lin Rui's acting skills.

Lu Bai nodded and agreed: "Yes, Lin Rui is indeed a gifted child. He will definitely have a bright future."

They sat quietly in front of the TV, watching the drama attentively and enjoying this rare relaxing time.

As the plot develops, the pictures become more and more exciting.

Bai Lu exclaimed from time to time and cheered for the wonderful moments in the play.

She glanced at her phone from time to time and found that the comments were full of positive reviews.

"Lu Bai, look at the comments, they are all full of compliments!"

Bai Lu said excitedly.

It is foreseeable that "Celebrating the New Year" has already secured its place as a blockbuster.

Lu Bai smiled slightly and said calmly: "Just wait for the final results."

His tone revealed his confidence and anticipation for the work, as if he had already foreseen the upcoming glory.

……

At the same time, in the editing department of Park Hyatt Media, Wang Zhi was the only one in the huge editing room.

He smoked dully, and wisps of smoke rose up in the dim light.

Wang Zhi's brows were furrowed, his eyes fixed on the computer screen, which was displaying the real-time playback data of "Celebrating the New Year".

His fingers tapped the table unconsciously, making a rhythmic "tap-tap" sound, as if keeping pace with the tension in his heart.

Wang Zhi lit another cigarette, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. His face was slightly blurred in the smoke, but it was difficult to conceal his deep tension and anxiety.

He knew very well that this drama carried the expectations and hard work of too many people, especially Lu Bai, who almost gave his all.

At this moment, everything depends on the audience's response and the fluctuations in ratings.

He checks his phone from time to time, looking forward to new messages, or refreshes social media to follow netizens' real-time comments on "Celebrating the New Year".

Whenever he saw new good reviews, a hint of joy would surge in his heart, but would be immediately overwhelmed by deeper tension.

He was worried that this was just a temporary fad, that there might be problems with the subsequent plot, and even more worried that those previous doubts would be raised again.

"Hey, it's Lu Bai who should be the most nervous, why am I so uneasy?"

Wang Zhi thought to himself with self-mockery, feeling that he was terminally ill.

Suddenly, the rapid ringing of the cell phone broke this self-mockery.

Wang Zhi hurriedly grabbed the phone and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Lu Bai's name flashing on the screen.

"Hello, Mr. Lu." Wang Zhi's voice trembled slightly.

"Director Wang, what's the situation?" Lu Bai's tone also revealed a hint of nervousness.

"Hmm? Mr. Lu is losing his temper too?" Wang Zhi teased, then said seriously, "So far, the audience response has been very enthusiastic and has received continuous praise. But I am still a little worried about the subsequent developments."

Lu Bai was silent for a moment and then said, "Director Wang, don't be too anxious. We have made our best efforts, and now it is up to the audience to judge." (End of this chapter)
