Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 442 The Golden Body Has Been Established
After another day of sunshine, Shen Juan received Yang Yangjin's work schedule for mid-to-late March.

With the peak of the virus over and the situation gradually becoming clearer and under initial control, the entertainment industry has gradually resumed work.

So Shen Juan finally had to end his short stay-at-home holiday of more than a month and go out to start a new round of work.

From the 13th to the 15th, we completed the music video shoots for the remaining singles in AS3, such as "STAY" (which was a collaboration with Bieber, and the videos were filmed separately by Shen Juan and Bieber and then spliced ​​together), "Leave The Door Open," and "INDUSTRY BABY" (the songs were released first and the music videos were made later).

Of course, not every song on the album needs to have a music video; that's a privilege reserved for Leviathan.

What a luxury!

He has no shortage of money, but he lacks time.

Moreover, during this special period, traveling around and coming into contact with different people increases the risk of contracting the virus.

So there's no need for that.

Just make music videos for the singles that are likely to achieve good results.

With his current fan base, he doesn't need to be as busy as he was last year when releasing AS2.

Then, from the 18th to the 20th, the first recording of this season's "Back to Field" was completed in the scenic Xishuangbanna.

It's been so long since I've seen him. I wonder if Leizi has gained weight while staying home all this time. I really miss him.

If he still dares to conduct experiments and tests this year?
Then he and Sister Tian will teach him how to be a good person.

Sister Tian, ​​a graduate of the Shanghai Theatre Academy and a purebred Sichuan-Chongqing tyrant, will not tolerate this paternalistic and preachy teacher from the Beijing Film Academy.

On the 24th, filming for the movie "A Little Red Flower for You" began in Qingdao. It's time to start memorizing the script and lines.

Interestingly, if the news is true, the female lead of the drama, Liu Haocun, seems to be a fan of his.

Last month, a well-informed marketing account revealed that the female lead in Shen Juan's new movie was an ordinary person, which caused a huge stir. Many netizens joined the discussion, believing that this woman must have an impressive background, otherwise it would be impossible for her to act alongside Shen Juan as a non-Starlink signed artist!
Soon, a big shot uncovered her identity.

A "Zhang Yimou Girl" (a term referring to actresses discovered by director Zhang Yimou) and a current student at the Beijing Dance Academy
Therefore, many people say that there must be something fishy about the casting, because this newly crowned "Mou Girl" happens to be an ordinary college student.

It just so happens to be Shen Juan's favorite, the amateur killer!
Then someone dug up Liu Haocun's following list and found that her Weibo account followed many big fans of Shen Juan.

So they simply labeled her as a little spring roll.

say what.
[Juanzi is probably going to be making fried noodles on set again!]

[They've been dancing since elementary school, so they're probably pretty resilient.]

Can a newcomer force out a full-on fatigue mode?

I'm truly sorry I couldn't satisfy Lord Shen Juan's desires.

I want to see Juanjuan's signature death stare!

[A combination of a "Zhang Yimou Girl" and a "Wan Girl"—the strongest resource-backed star in history is born! Even before her debut, she's already enjoying the "enlightenment" and "voluptuous breasts" of Wa Juan (a famous Chinese actress), a pampered princess purely built on elixirs! What chance do others have? Her start is the finish line many young actresses might never reach in their entire lives!]

Does this mean that all future actresses in the Chinese entertainment industry will have to be personally developed by Wa Juan if they want to make a name for themselves? #Sad#

Despite the heated online discussions about this matter, people's desire to discuss such gossip topics is always explosive, and they always have endless things to talk about.

But Shen Juan thought they would get along very well.

Don't say anything else.

They were born on the same day, month, and year, and were the same age!
We do have some common topics to discuss.

They can't just change their age to two years younger and call him "brother," can they?
Shen Juan, who had just finished showering and was lying on the sofa applying a face mask and doing her daily skin care routine, suddenly received a phone call.

A video call from Jiang Peiyao.

"Did you finish reading the short article I sent you this morning? The inspiration came from your song 'Emergency Contact.' I've been staying at home lately and writing a lot of articles out of boredom. I've written quite a few short stories like this! Of course, most of them are poorly written and not presentable."

"Looked."

To summarize the story briefly: After breaking up with the female lead, who is based on Shen Juan, the male lead goes hiking in France to try to move on from the past relationship. However, an accident occurs, and the doctor calls the emergency contact number in his phone.

The person who answered the phone was the female protagonist.

Then the female protagonist falls into memories, and her past experiences with the male protagonist slowly unfold like a scroll.

"What about your reading response?"

Jiang Peiyao was a little nervous but also a little excited. She felt that she did have some talent as a writer.

Even if you haven't eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig run?
She's read so many different types of books and fan fiction lately, she should at least have made some progress!
"No wonder he has a master's degree."

"What master's degree?"

"I said what you wrote is worthy of your education, it's very well written!" Shen Juan praised earnestly.

“I studied acting; this kind of master’s degree isn’t worth much,” Jiang Peiyao said with a slight upturn of her lips, trying to be modest.

"That's still much better than me, an undergraduate who doesn't even know if I can graduate smoothly or get my degree certificate."

Shen Juan has been attacked and questioned by some groups because he rarely attends school and even missed this year's final exams due to his overseas tour. They believe he is a privileged individual who is only going to university to get a degree, and that if he doesn't go to school, he shouldn't take up other people's educational resources.

Then, he took the opportunity to thoroughly humiliate and ridicule the Beijing Film Academy, believing that the Beijing Film Academy was like a sycophant to Shen Juan, completely lacking the demeanor and dignity that a university should have. He said that if ambitious young people want to become real actors, not just internet celebrities, they should not apply to the Beijing Film Academy.

"A big star like you would worry about something like this?" Jiang Peiyao laughed. "I don't think Beijing Film Academy would hold you back from graduating. Even if you're cyberbullied, they'll still make sure you graduate smoothly. After all, what if you drop out in a fit of anger? You're going to be a star in their school history!"

Shen Juan shrugged and said helplessly, "Doesn't that just prove that I'm a privileged person?"

"So what if you're a privileged person? Your current achievements, status, and value fully justify all privileges and preferential treatment!"

"If everyone in this world could be as understanding as you, that would be wonderful." Shen Juan looked tenderly at Jiang Peiyao, who was smiling at him on the phone screen. Her figure and appearance might not be top-notch, but compared to naive and inexperienced young women, her thoughts were indeed more profound.

In other words, she has high emotional and intellectual intelligence, and it's very easy, natural, and pleasant to chat with and get along with her.

“If that’s the case, then I think you might rule the world.” Jiang Peiyao smiled and winked. “After all, you know how much I like you, so if everyone in the world likes you as much as I do, then I feel like you might really become the king of that world.”

"When did you become so direct? In my memory, you're the kind of girl who's not very willing or good at expressing her feelings directly."

"People always change! Although I still think that being reserved is a good personality trait, I remember someone once said that reserved people are often full of emotions, so actors who can act well are generally very reserved in real life, but when it comes to dating, it's better to be more expressive!"

"After all, we don't spend much time together, and to be honest, I'm under a lot of competitive pressure. If I keep my original personality and interact with you in the way I'm most comfortable with, it will be comfortable, but I feel that I will definitely regret it in the future for not saying everything I want to say."

Jiang Peiyao finally found the right opportunity and mustered up the courage to say what she had always wanted to say to Shen Juan.

But there was silence on the other end of the phone.

Although it is said that the most perfect couples should not keep secrets from each other, how can reality completely follow the theory?
The secrets in one's heart are the most vulnerable and tender parts of a person's life, and few people will reveal them.

Because they are easily harmed.

But there are always people willing to take the risk.

After a long silence, Shen Juan broke the deadlock: "Is this the kind of miracle you want to encounter in ordinary life?"

Jiang Peiyao's heart skipped a beat.

Then the familiar voice continued, "I respect and like your original personality and how you are, but if you want to make changes, I can accept it and continue to like you because I believe your inner self is good and you will develop in a positive direction."

"And also, the time just happened to arrive."

Shen Juan paused for a moment, then smiled happily and congratulated him, "Happy birthday, March 10th, 2020!"

"I hope all your wishes come true in the new year, and that you can experience the happiest and most romantic moments with the person you love!"

After saying goodnight to each other, we reluctantly hung up the phone.

I feel absolutely blissful right now!
The happiest and most romantic scene? I've already felt it!
Right now, at this very moment.

Every moment spent with you is!
Looking at her phone screen, Jiang Peiyao suddenly remembered a certain passage from the fanfiction she had sent to Shen Juan.

"Shen Juan, do you know? The reason why a miracle is a miracle is that the probability of it happening is one in a million. So it is actually a very common thing for someone to like someone, but it is a miracle that is extremely rare. So I like you, but I don't expect a miracle to happen."

But what he wanted to tell her was that miracles do exist in this world, and between him and her. However, just as Jiang Peiyao could no longer know what he felt when he saved her number in the emergency contact list, he would never again hear her answer in person.

"I remember you said before that the idea of ​​meeting each other again in the next life, or falling in love again, is too unreliable, so it's better to cherish the present. But, my dear, since I couldn't let you hear my belated feelings in this life, I hope you'll hear me say them again in the next."

This is a sad and heartbreaking story.

But Jiang Peiyao felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

It's super sweet!

He actually read the entire article I sent him.

He was genuinely using story content to chat with me.

He can match every single one of my brainwaves!
Jiang Peiyao couldn't help but squint her eyes.

Therefore, she doesn't ask for too much.

She just wants to maintain the status quo.

Because she is already very happy and satisfied.

When I woke up, it was already noon.

Shen Juan's charity single "Ordinary Angel," produced for the cause of fighting the epidemic, was released on major platforms at 12 noon.

(Original singer: G.E.M., there is a music video on Bilibili. The release date of this special single during the period of loyalty is not so important.)
"Don't be afraid of the long night. Look up at the stars; they're forming a line right now. Perhaps it's a test. Watch them scatter."

The feedback was excellent.

It contains strength in its quietness and releases warmth in its gentleness.

There are no flashy high notes or complex rhythms; it unfolds with a simple and soothing tone.

From the initial gentle piano accompaniment to the gradual addition of strings and drums, the music builds layer by layer, like a babbling brook slowly flowing into the hearts of listeners, gently recounting the touching moments in life. It's as if the praise and gratitude in the heart are transformed into a gentle embrace, conveyed to everyone who is listening to the song.

Shen Juan's new song "Ordinary Angels" pays tribute to all frontline workers fighting the epidemic! A tribute to all the small and ordinary angels! The night is no longer dark because of the stars; even small lights, when gathered together, become the sun. Go Wuhan! Go China! Go everyone, ordinary yet extraordinary!

[From lyrics and composition to arrangement, mixing, and MV editing, Shen Juan handled everything himself. This is the roughest, yet also the best, MV I've ever seen him make since I started liking him! This is the true role of musicians in society! Thank you, Shen Juan, and a salute to everyone who contributed their efforts!]

The so-called angels in white are nothing more than a group of children who changed clothes and, imitating their predecessors, are fighting against death to save lives. We thank every celebrity who stood up to speak out in this time of crisis, allowing everyone to find a starry sky made of glimmers of light when even the Church of Christ could not be trusted.

[From Shen Juan's browsing history on Douyin and Weibo, we can see that he cares about the epidemic every day. Most other celebrities don't browse videos about the epidemic and avoid mentioning anything related to loyalty and righteousness online, but he doesn't. He has been working hard, and I genuinely think he is very gentle and kind.]

[I'm a frontline medical worker, and when I heard the phrase "You are the most ordinary yet warmest angel," I burst into tears. Thank you, Alex, for speaking out for love. I believe that singers with a sense of social responsibility will go further and achieve greater things! Go Shen Juan! Go Jiangcheng! Go China!]

The gentle voice paired with the touching music video brought tears to the eyes of many fans and netizens.

It was in this touching emotional atmosphere that Shen Juan became the best singer in the hearts of many Chinese people!

But this is not the end.

The rhythm ignited by the anti-Japanese single continues.

The encouraging private messages that Shen Juan painstakingly typed out on his phone screen over the past few days, which he sent to fans both at home and abroad, as well as his act of extending a helping hand and donating money to them, were also conveniently posted online by these fans who were so moved by their idol that they would never forget him for the rest of their lives. They became a hot topic alongside the song "Ordinary Angel".

This provided an opportunity to generate greater attention and buzz for Shen Juan, the person involved in these two topics.

For example, Zhihu once again sparked a heated Q&A discussion about Shen Juan's previously criticized character.

[Released on Valentine's Day 2019, "Crush" was released, and all proceeds from the EP were donated to children's welfare organizations.]

When Peng Peng terminated his contract with his former company, Shen Juan lent him money to pay the penalty without hesitation and even let him stay at his home temporarily (Peng Peng said this himself on the show "Back to Field"; Shen Juan never mentioned it. At that time, neither of them was very famous or had much money, but Shen Juan was still willing to help).

When Ju C sued Yi Hai, Shen Juan, his former teammate, kindly provided evidence to help him terminate his contract.

He collaborated with Li Nacha, who was then unknown and in dire straits, and pulled him out of the mire of life.

They wrote to Apple and The Voice of China to express the importance of copyright for singers and to protect the rights of many singers.

He helps fans who get into university pay their tuition, buys houses for fans who suddenly lose their parents in accidents, records wedding blessing videos for fans who get married and sings his favorite songs, visits fans who are sick and hospitalized, and gives bonuses to every staff member who participates in his tour.
(All of the above was revealed by the fans themselves; otherwise, no one would have known that Shen Juan did these things in private.)
He personally sends out the gifts that fans wished for online at Christmas, and sometimes even delivers them to their homes in person.

He sends private messages of encouragement to fans who have lost their source of income and are facing difficulties during the pandemic, and transfers money to their accounts. I heard that the amount is 3000 US dollars overseas and 21000 Chinese yuan in China. In addition, there are countless charitable donations. Does anyone still think that he has bad character?

You may not understand Shen Juan because you don't have the ability to earn a ten-figure annual income, nor do you have a huge social influence and a group of Alovers who strongly support and trust him.

Many fans have actually been with him for a long time, supporting him since his debut. The bond between Shen Juan and Alovers has always been something many fans are proud of. So now that he has suddenly lost his source of income due to Yi Qing, it is a particularly heartwarming and correct thing for an idol to lend a helping hand to these fans who are in trouble.

Some people may feel resentful.

For example, if everyone has encountered difficulties and is in a difficult situation, why doesn't he give the same preferential treatment to others?
Why would he rather donate money to foreigners than help a few more of his fellow countrymen? And why doesn't he donate directly to charities?
I really don't think it's necessary to resort to moral blackmail.

These fans who received assistance were most likely personally selected by Shen Juan. According to what these fans said, Shen Juan read their past blog posts, confirmed their identities, and determined that they were people who desperately needed help before extending a helping hand.

This is their good fortune as Alovers, and also the shared honor, glory, and good luck of all of us Alovers!
Moreover, Juanjuan didn't make a fuss about helping them. It was only after these fans sent him private messages and screenshots of payments on social media to express their gratitude that we found out.

Juanjuan always focuses on solving problems without uttering a single unnecessary word. He quietly avoids the spotlight and does things that are genuinely helpful and pure in nature.

Instead of constantly calling for environmental protection, animal protection, and rejection of domestic violence on TV, I think it's more practical to quietly donate money. This clearly shows who is genuinely helping and who is just putting on a show for a charitable persona.

If you still can't understand Shen Juan's actions after reading this far, it can only be said that the sophisticated egoism and extreme idol culture prevalent in society today have almost destroyed you, making you forget how to share kindness and how to give back to those who support and love you.

[Thank you for the invitation.]

I've heard too many criticisms of Shen Juan, but they all boil down to the same old, trivial topics: too many girlfriends and a chaotic private life. He's probably the first artist to be criticized so much just for having many girlfriends. It seems the haters can't find any other things to criticize him for.

It's ridiculous that many people say he's throwing his eyes around as being arrogant. If you read more news, you'll know that only self-media marketing accounts criticize Shen Juan for being arrogant. Grassroots staff members almost always praise Shen Juan. At least nine out of ten comments about him are positive!
When he left Lehua, he didn't even leave a single piece of evidence against him. What kind of person is he?

In conclusion: I still believe that someone who is willing to pay for their fans' tuition and buy them a house, who is willing to donate all of their EP's proceeds, who frequently participates in community activities, who often donates to those in need, and who is loved by so many people, can't be too bad, no matter how imperfect they may be.

Last but not least, please support Juan Ge's new album!
Hopefully, 2020 will be a golden age for AS3!

Although Shen Juan doesn't have a single truly groundbreaking Mandarin hit, and his historical status in the pure Mandarin music scene can't compare to those legendary figures, his current influence, amplified through repeated promotional activities and support from relevant departments, has reached an astounding level.

His primary identities globally are pop singer, Gen Z opinion leader, and fashion icon.

In China, however, he is more often seen as a pop singer and an outstanding young artist who cares about the country and society.

The concept is relatively general.

But it means a lot, it represents a lot.

Of course, Shen Juan was also willing to take on more responsibility.

Because he has that ability.

Moreover, he also has higher and greater aspirations.

Life is like an unpredictable flowing river; the flowers of the morning are hard to find even when gathered at dusk.

David Tao, now in his fifties, often feels sad and regretful about the fact that "time has turned his hair gray and his heart is still not at ease."

Shen Juan, in his early twenties, is still very young, and he can win many, many more times in the race against time.
