Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 495

After the plane landed, I went home and had dinner.

I talked to my parents about the recent events on the internet, showing a positive and optimistic side to reassure them as much as possible.

Next, they went to the hotel where the crew was staying and, as usual, began a script reading with everyone present.

Xiao Hu, who had just finished her holiday visiting her family, arrived at the conference room early. When Shen Juan, whom she had been longing for and who seemed to be constantly changing identities and professions in her dreams every night, finally arrived, she immediately threw herself into his arms in front of everyone, frantically absorbing the long-lost Juan Juan energy!
Just like when you dig up a gold mine, you feel weak all over, your face is flushed, and your eyes are wet.

While others were somewhat surprised by the female protagonist's obsessive nature, that was about it.

After all, everyone on Earth knows that Shen Juan only acts with his girlfriend, and even only with girlfriends who are signed with Starlink.

People like Liu Haocun are ultimately special cases. After all, there are very few people in the entire Chinese entertainment industry with such powerful backgrounds and connections as her.

So he quickly looked away.

Let's cut back on gossip and focus on work!

Although filming hasn't started yet.

But they had a premonition that Shen Juan's amazing global influence and fan appeal would boost the film's box office.

So if that's really the case, then this achievement will make their resumes look much better, and their future careers in the film and television industry will be much smoother.

As for this script reading
Similar to previous sessions, it simply involved having the main creative team members share their understanding of the script and their characters.

In short, the film "Love Like a Bouquet" mainly tells the story of a young couple's love journey, from their unexpected encounter in college, their somewhat abrupt yet natural romance, to their breakup after entering the workforce and facing reality. The core message is that love is as beautiful and fleeting as a flower in bloom.

The first stage is the meeting phase:
After a party, college students Zhou Can and Su Wan met by chance at the subway station because they missed the last subway. They discovered that they had highly overlapping interests in books, movies, and music, as if they had found another gender-swapped version of themselves. After several dates and chats, they quickly fell in love.

Then comes the honeymoon phase:
To better share the little things in each other's lives, the two decided to rent an apartment together and live together. They browsed books in bookstores, watched niche films, attended music festivals, and even their food preferences and unintentional little habits were highly compatible. Their love blossomed in their resonant daily lives.

Next comes the phase of change:
After graduation, the pressures of real life gradually became apparent. Zhou Can gave up his hobbies for stability and threw himself into a busy job; Su Wan, on the other hand, insisted on doing what she loved. Their lifestyles and values ​​diverged, their shared topics decreased, arguments increased, and their former understanding was eroded.

Finally, the breakup stage arrived:
Although they still had feelings for each other, they realized that they were heading down different paths in life. Ultimately, they had no choice but to break up peacefully. When they said goodbye, they walked side by side like they did when they were first in love, acknowledging that although their love had ended, they were grateful for the beautiful time that had been like a bouquet of flowers.

The film delicately depicts the fragility of love in the face of reality and the impact of individual choices on relationships during growth, evoking a deep resonance with people's feelings about love and life. Although it did not break out of its niche due to its subject matter, it received very good reviews among young people.

What are the differences between this version of "Love Like a Bouquet" and the original version, which was set in Japan?

In fact, some changes were made to the details in order to conform to the actual social situation in contemporary China.

For example, the niche films and novels in the original movie had to be replaced with niche works with Chinese characteristics.

For example, some of the conversations between the male and female protagonists can be transformed into topics that are currently receiving continuous attention in Chinese society.

However, the most compelling story framework and core plot of this film will certainly not change much.

After all, copying songs is like copying movies; you have to have a sense of what can and cannot be changed.

What if you accidentally lay off employees from the most critical sectors?

That blunder was self-inflicted.

The meeting ended a little after 10 p.m.

Everyone went home, and the director told them to go to bed early tonight to conserve their energy for the official start of filming tomorrow.

Shen Juan returned to his room.

Although he has a home in Shanghai.

But for convenience, he still chose to stay in a hotel.

Then soon came Hu, the infatuated girl, who came with her little schoolbag to ask the teacher for private tutoring after school.

"Why are you carrying a bag?"

"Because I brought some things with me!"

"what?"

"Of course it's something good!" Xiao Hu said with a smile, unzipping the zipper. Shen Juan leaned over to take a look and was instantly shocked!

Man!

What can I say?

Did she bring all her secretly collected collectible figurines? How many is that?!
Has she bought and prepared every item she can think of to enhance the fun and appeal of the product?
What the hell is she planning to do for the next two months?!

No wonder Lao Song told him that among the four people in their dormitory, Xiao Hu's mosquito net had been turned into a completely enclosed air force base, and at night there were often very strange noises coming from it, like the smacking sound of someone eating snacks, and it felt like the food was very spicy and made a lot of saliva.

She explained that she talks in her sleep.

My sis is dreaming of eating spicy strips.

Lao Song laughed.

Sun Zhenni suppressed a laugh.

Lin Boyang seemed to be deep in thought.

No wonder Kong Xueer told him that Xiao Hu often went to the toilet late at night and stayed there for an hour.

Her explanation to the public was that when she felt too much pressure, she liked to go to the bathroom to clear her mind.

Kong Xueer covered her smile with a cough.

Liu Lingzi looked at Xiao Hu with a strange expression.

Jin Zihan believed it to be true and said that she was also under a lot of pressure and wanted to relax. She asked Xiao Hu if he could help her.
Liu Yuxin pretended that she hadn't heard anything.

What does it mean to "empty the market"?

What form and what concept of 'emptying'?
All we can say is what Xiao Hu is specifically doing.
Everyone knows what I mean.

After all, men and women are the same and both need to take off, so Shen Juan needs to act as the control tower to direct and coordinate.

"So? Do you like it?" Xiao Hu hugged Shen Juan's right arm tightly and asked with a smile.

Shen Juan was silent for a moment, and it was undeniable that he was a little excited at the moment: "I think you like it more."

Xiao Hu is, after all, a young woman who is not yet 20 years old, so she was inevitably a little shy when talking about such a straightforward and explicit conversation. However, these insignificant emotions were quickly overwhelmed by the happiness and sweetness of being with her boyfriend: "I do like him very much, but I want you to be happy too!"

"Stop talking!" Xiao Hu covered Shen Juan's mouth.

As it turns out, no matter how much she boasts, how talented she is, or how much she seems to swoon over women, at only 19 years old and lacking in competitive experience, she is ultimately better at theoretical AI battles and 1v1 solo matches than participating in chaotic brawls or high-level multiplayer games.

To put it bluntly, he's just a bot player who hasn't been ranked yet, so it's inevitable that he'll show some fear when playing ranked matches against real players.

Normally, I can only show off in front of Jin Zihan, a newbie who just joined the fish pond, but when I meet Sister Tian and the others...
I might have to report someone for maliciously botnetting.

Let's skip this part for now.

After Xiao Hu calmed down, she chatted with Shen Juan about the official announcement of "You Are My Glory" on the entire internet.

Why did we start the machine so discreetly?

"Honor of Kings is controlled by Tencent and also has the participation of the space agency. It is obvious that the higher-ups want to make it a benchmark TV series of the post-90s era that can be successfully exported overseas, so that neighboring countries can see the new era of China. Our movie, on the other hand, is a low-budget film and is completely different in nature."

"I see," Hu Lianxin said, roughly understanding, but still somewhat regretfully, "Your official announcement across the entire internet this time was so high-profile that Wang Churan has overtaken you all at once. It seems like even your CP supertopic has been created now."

"Don't worry, we'll have it too after the movie is released." Shen Juan gently pinched Xiao Hu's chubby cheek.

"The earliest it will be next year." Hu Lianxin looked at Shen Juan's beautiful eyes, which she had seen and dreamed of countless times before, and which always made her fall into them when they met again. After hesitating for a moment, she still expressed everything she wanted to say.

"I'm a very principled person and I understand the importance of first come, first served. That's why I respect Tian Xiwei, Cheng Xiao, Zhou Ye, and Zu Er. After all, they've known you for a long time and accompanied you through your unknown early days. So, my only regret is that I didn't meet you sooner, didn't enter the entertainment industry earlier to act alongside you, and didn't get born a few years earlier to be admitted to the Beijing Film Academy and become your classmate."

“But Wang Churan is different. Although she was a lucky fan chosen by the senior, just like me, she only met you in 19 and she’s from the Shanghai Theatre Academy. She definitely doesn’t meet and talk to you as much as we do. So I’m really not convinced that I lost to her and was overtaken by her!”

Now Shen Juan understood more or less.

In short, Xiao Hu treated his seniors and elders with respect.

But what about those of the same generation, especially the younger generation?
She absolutely refused to let them get away with anything!

Want to live out your fantasy of overthrowing your superiors?

Then don't blame me for striking hard!
It can only be said that a person's ambition will continue to expand over time and with changes in their own abilities and circumstances.

When I was just a little Karami, all I wanted was to stay by the side of the person I liked and quietly accompany and watch over him.

But now, with the influx of new trainees from "Sister-in-Law 202" into the competition, she's starting to want more. She's connected with almost every small group, including fan groups like Shen Yujie, Bao Shangen, and Li Wanda; roommate groups like Zuer, Jenny, and Lin Boyang; idol groups like Jin Zihan and Liu Xiening; and female fan groups like Sister Tian, ​​Sister Xiao Xiao, Sister Tong Tong, and Sister Jiang Jiang.

With such unique strategic value, coupled with so many good sisters who want her to rise to power and push her forward to conquer new territories and secure a place in Shen Juan's fishpond, it's really hard for her to continue being a lazy bum, and it's really hard for her not to develop ambition.

Therefore, she knew she was not fighting alone!
Behind her stand millions of sisters!
Admittedly, she was not a born leader.

She is unlike Sister Tian, ​​who wields immense influence in the fan community and possesses an unparalleled leadership quality that commands respect even amidst overwhelming opposition.

Unlike Xiao Ye, who unites everyone and possesses a leadership ability that embraces all things and makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze.

But she will strive to lead everyone to the end! She will do everything in her power to bring everyone the best possible tomorrow!
Hill, wait, no!
Xiao Hu will protect everyone.

As for whether Xiao Hu's ambition will swell to the point that he harbors rebellious thoughts towards those senior figures above him.
That's unknown.

After all, just as Shen Juan had said before.

The expansion of ambition knows no bounds.

A little girl who is still very well-behaved at this time may be changed into something else by love after a while.

Shen Juan looked at Xiao Hu, who had initially been defiant and dissatisfied, but then suddenly seemed to remember something and curled up the corners of his mouth, as if he were radiating greatness: "I thought you two had a good relationship before, since you didn't seem to have any conflicts or contradictions on the surface."

"You said it yourself, there's only no overt conflict or contradiction, but girls are incredibly jealous creatures!"

"So you two often argue behind my back?"

"That's not the case. I don't even have her WeChat, so even if I wanted to argue, I couldn't." Hu Lianxin smiled.

Shen Juan laughed, "Then how about I act as a bridge and set up a discussion group for you two? Let's have a chat?"

"Senior, do you really want to see girls fight and pull each other's hair for you?" Xiao Hu frowned slightly, his face showing dissatisfaction.

"I didn't say that!" Shen Juan laughed and changed the subject: "Hey, speaking of which, did you encounter any fights when you were filming Youth With You 2? I heard that similar things happened in other talent shows."

Hu Lianxin thought about it carefully for a while and replied, "There were no fights, but there were definitely a lot of jealousy and rivalry."

Shen Juan raised an eyebrow: "Jealousy? For whom?"

"For you! Who else could it be?" Hu Lianxin glanced at him irritably, her tone somewhat matter-of-fact: "I feel like half of the hundred trainees at the beginning were your fans. What do you think their reaction would be when they met us five trainees from Starlink?"

"Shouldn't it be about fawning and ingratiating?"

"But there are also quite a few people who don't like us and target us, just like those delinquent girls who hang out in the streets when we were in school."

"They dare to bully others while filming a TV show?"

“If we weren’t filming a show, I feel like they would really be bullying us.” As Hu Lianxin spoke, she suddenly smiled smugly with her eyes crinkling. “But to be honest, I actually feel pretty good about it. The more they target us, the more it shows that they are envious and jealous! In the end, they are the ones who should be pitied.”

"What's the deal with Jin Zihan? Why did you suddenly call her to my room on the night of the finals?" Shen Juan asked.

"Because Jinzi really likes you! I spend every day with her, and no one understands how much she loves you better than me!"

"You just said women are jealous, so why aren't you jealous?" Shen Juan looked at Xiao Hu with a playful expression.

"Of course I'll eat! How could I not be jealous? That's why I joined in later!" Xiao Hu said matter-of-factly.

Actually, for the sake of her best friend's happiness and for the greater good, she initially thought that taking a step back would lead to a brighter future. But after taking a shower, the thought of her best friend enjoying life on her senior's boat while she could only fantasize about her senior flying a plane made her feel increasingly miserable.

So I had no choice but to call my senior and ask him to open the door for me, and then I forced my way in and started playing Dou Dizhu (a card game).

Shen Juan recalled the scene of the two farmers fighting over corn cobs in the field that night, and after a moment of silence, asked, "What about Jenny?"

"She's the same way. She likes you too, but she's incredibly timid. Every time we talked about you before, she would pretend to be reserved."

"Forehead"

"Oh right, and Bo Yang and Wan Da are the same! And Ling Zi and Xiao Ting are pretty much the same. In short, senior, do you think so many of them came to Starlink because they saw its development prospects? That's impossible. Starlink and its core competitiveness have always been you, senior!"

"The way you're saying it makes it sound like I'm the one who was sexually harassed while selling pillows," Shen Juan said, somewhat speechless.

"Is not it?"

"of course not!"

"Oh."

Shen Juan was speechless at the girl's casual "oh". Looking at the cunning in her eyes, he suddenly felt that arguing with her was pointless. So he reached out and pinched Hu Lianxin's cheeks and began to squeeze them.

Hu Lianxin's delicate face was pinched into a pig's head one moment and a hamster the next, but instead of dodging, she moved closer to him, tilted her head cutely, winked at Shen Juan, and asked in an innocent tone, "Am I not telling the truth?"

"No matter who Se-I dates or falls in love with, it always means that the other person is taking advantage of me, unless you think you're not Se-I!"

"I think I am." Shen Juan felt that his answer was a tribute to a well-known League of Legends streamer, Wenjiangun.

"That's settled then?" Xiao Hu laughed happily, then grabbed Shen Juan's two claws that were constantly attacking his face and pressed them onto his front armor.

Shen Juan was taken aback. "What are you doing?"

Xiao Hu smiled and said, "I'm taking advantage of you."

"Trying to take advantage of me?"

"No stamp!"

"You're invincible, kid."

"Am I invincible now?" Hu Lianxin suddenly stepped forward with a half-smile, pushing Shen Juan down into the soft sofa. She then leaned over him, placing her hands on his shoulders and looking down at him with eyes full of longing and anticipation for selling Coca-Cola: "And now?"

"Now, can it be considered that I'm taking advantage of you?"

Shen Juan finally couldn't hold back any longer and said the words he had long wanted to say to Xiao Hu face to face: "You have a high fever."

"Since we're after excitement, let's go all the way!" Xiao Hu replied with the accompanying line, clearly understanding the situation.

As for what will happen next?
It goes without saying.

During halftime, Xiao Hu looked at Shen Juan, who was lying next to her scrolling through Douyin, her eyes filled with infatuation and longing.

The meaning of meeting in this world is hard to explain.

But it will never be giving up!

Thinking about it now...
I feel like I can't live without you anymore, so I need to start planning for my future!
In order to stay by your side and watch over you better, and also to occupy a more important place in your heart.

Snow White and the Five Dwarfs
Bao Bao first encountered Sister Tian, ​​who scared her half to death (described by the group, causing Xiao Shen and Wan Da to develop a terrible bias against Sister Tian as well). Then she was successfully moved by Zhou Ye's warmth and became her true eye planted in "Sister-in-law 202". It is not advisable to have too much contact with her, lest she be reported.

Yu Jie is completely captivated by her senior's romance and gentleness, so she only wants to be in a serious relationship right now. Moreover, she has been sent to Hengdian to keep company with D8, who are unable to enter the core circle of the fish pond, so she has no plans to form cliques and gang up to compete for the championship for the time being.

Wan Da is too young. For the safety of her senior and for the sustainable development of the fishpond, she cannot be allowed to sit at the table.

Yichun is not competitive at all.

Starlink Idol Division.
Xue'er is too fickle; her opportunistic nature is quite obvious.

Gold that is too pure is easily fooled and deceived.

Wait, was I the one who lied to her?

That's fine.

Then, Ling Zi Xiaoting and Jenny Boyang were too shy.

We need to find a good opportunity to push them forward, otherwise they will remain dormant most of the time.

Lana, a Russian girl, is a 100% pure-blooded Slavic fangirl. She is not loyal to anyone but her senior and herself.

Sally is a good catch, but she's too opinionated.

Jiang Zhenyu. I don't understand this person.

Every time she talks about her senior, she pretends to be infatuated, but her eyes are completely devoid of emotion.

If it weren't for her genuinely clean background, she would have even suspected that he was a mole sent by another company!
Then, on the female side, it seems that Sister Tongtong has joined Tian Xiwei's camp. Sister Qian is not participating in the battle. Although Sister Xiaoxiao has a good relationship with everyone, she does not help anyone. So after thinking it over, only Sister Jiangjiang can be brought into the camp.

Furthermore, they can also write short essays and fanfiction and post them in the group for everyone to read, thus enhancing team cohesion.

I'll also do some ideological work with everyone.

In short, although most of the people he knows are on the fringes of the fishpond, Xiao Hu feels that if he can unite them all together, there is still much that can be accomplished! Not to mention challenging for the championship of the "Sister-in-Law 101" Winter Trio, he can at least develop into a dominant force in the league on his own!
She believed that with the joint efforts of her group of like-minded people, they would one day defeat the imperialist regime!
Completely overturn and overturn the entire fishpond structure!
