Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 514 Don't Blame My Sister for Not Being Human
Located in the northeast of Anting Town, JD District, the Shanghai International Circuit is my country's only Class 1 racetrack, with a total length of 5.45 kilometers. It has hosted numerous international sporting events, including F1, the World Endurance Championship, the World Touring Car Championship, the MotoGP World Championship, the V8 Super Touring Car Championship, and the China Touring Car Championship.

The Porsche China Sport Cup, scheduled to be held from October 31 to November 1 this year, will be held here.

Therefore, Shen Juan, who had already confirmed his participation in the competition, also used his connection with Porsche to conduct closed training and film a documentary here.

"The sudden surge of friendship disrupted all plans, and several months later, the European Le Mans Series finally announced its return, kicking off the 2020 season in July. The venue for the races at this time of year has always been Le Castellée, but this year it has changed from the third race to the first."

Shen Juan was using his break time between training sessions to watch videos related to ELMS (European Le Mans Series).

It is said that his colleague, another star driver signed by Porsche, Michael Fassbender, who played the young Magneto, is currently participating in this race in preparation for his official entry into the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France.

In fact, if it weren't for this act of loyalty, Shen Juan might be receiving more professional and systematic training in Europe right now.

After all, although he has a wide range of interests, racing is definitely the one that excites and thrills him the most.

The thrill of driving at high speeds and pushing the limits, with the brain experiencing a surge of adrenaline, endorphins, dopamine, and other hormones in a short period of time, is simply intoxicating!
He now understands why so many celebrities have died in extreme sports such as car racing, skydiving, and skiing over the years.

This is a completely different kind of pleasure than selling Coke.

But they have in common that
They are all wonderful and fascinating!
These are all primal pleasures etched into human genes!

So he really intends to practice driving well.

Consider it a way to enrich your personal life.

As for humiliating Wu Jiaheng?
That was just a side bonus.

After all, who would be happy all day just because they were bored and kicked a dead stray dog ​​on the roadside?
It's just that times have changed.

He really felt great when he punched Kris and gave him a concussion!

It gives you a sense of cathartic revenge!
But what if they're no longer on the same level?

The sense of enjoyment is naturally greatly reduced.

Some people are ultimately just passersby in our lives.

After reading the event briefing and browsing news about the election for the leader across the ocean, a staff member came over.

Today's 911RSR test is about to begin.

"Relax and don't feel pressured."

"If any unexpected situation arises along the way, such as the seat not working properly, the radio not working, or anything else that makes you feel uncomfortable, just drive back to the station. Our job is to ensure that you can drive comfortably without any accidents."

“You learn something new with every lap you run, so I don’t expect you to do this or that in a step-by-step manner.”

"I understand," Shen Juan replied, then picked up the helmet from the bench, put it on securely, and got into the car.

"The seat has been adjusted according to your request, and it should be fine now. However, if you still feel that the lumbar support is insufficient..."

The coach's voice came again. Shen Juan was bending down to fasten the waist belt of his racing suit. The double-layer Velcro and metal buckles were all fastened securely in order. He reached out and patted his side, feeling the sense of security and tightness brought by the belt wrapping around his torso.

Then he looked up at the instructor outside the car window and finished the sentence he hadn't finished saying: "I'll go back to the station right away."

"Okay, just focus on driving, don't feel pressured."

"I understand, but why shouldn't you feel pressured?"

Shen Juan raised his hand and slowly lowered the helmet visor. The transparent lens settled, and as he gripped the steering wheel and took a deep breath, his already sharp eyebrows and eyes were made even sharper by the cold, hard carbon fiber outline of the helmet. Even the voice that came through the visor afterward became much colder and harder. "I have always craved this pressure."

Meanwhile, the documentary filming is also underway.

They closely followed and filmed every moment of Shen Juan putting on his racing suit, getting into the race car, and communicating with his coach.

In another soundproof room, the project leader was interviewed, recounting the preparation details for this 911RSR test.

"To be honest, this collaboration has been an eye-opener for me! Alex's outstanding willpower and physical abilities, as well as his innate talent for controlling race cars, have really impressed me! It has completely shattered my previous superficial understanding of celebrities and some of my less-than-ideal stereotypes."

"Although he is indeed a newcomer in the field of racing and has not yet mastered a lot of professional knowledge and content, he is very quick to learn and can grasp many of our ideas and requirements. He can then make changes in the next test, thus becoming faster and faster."

"This sensitivity to racing, this learning speed, is innate and can make most people envious!"

"Then look at him sitting in the Porsche wearing our custom racing suit. That feeling of absolute focus and composure is just like this car! The 911 series has been born with an uncompromising gene of perfection, which is to have performance that breaks through the limits, while maintaining precise and controllable elegance."

"Alex possesses these fascinating and complex qualities, so our collaboration with him has never been a deliberate attempt to cater to the market. Rather, it stems from an absolute trust in him based on a deep and genuine connection. As for what kind of results he will ultimately achieve, let's wait and see!"

"After all, this is only the first episode of The Road to Le Mans, and we have plenty of time to witness his progress and growth."

Seven days can feel like a long time, or it can feel like a short time.

Before we knew it, the training week was coming to an end.

After the farewell lunch, Shen Juan first gave everyone on the team, including the documentary crew and the cleaners, a valuable gift. Then he took the high-speed train to Xiangshan, where the crew of "The Snow Sword" was filming. He planned to visit Xiao Ye and Ai Bao on set.

On the way, he was browsing news related to himself when he discovered some not-so-good news coming from the internet.

Cardi B and Ma Dongmei's new song "WAP" debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with a massive first-week lead (93 million streaming points and 125,000 digital downloads), leaving Shen Juan's "STAY" reigning at number one for 14 weeks.

Despite the considerable amount of pessimistic voices on the international internet.

After dominating the charts for three months, "STAY" has finally met its Waterloo and will not have another chance to return to the top.

Many haters even bluntly stated that they had had enough of Alex Shen and Justin Bieber's awful voices!

But Shen Juan said: I don't think so.

After all, it was only two weeks away from the record for most weeks at number one for Mariah Carey and Despacito, and Shen Juan felt that his fans could not give up such a historic honor that was within reach.

In addition, the data for "STAY" remained stable this week, it just couldn't beat the initial sales of other new songs.

Therefore, the possibility of regaining the crown cannot be completely ruled out.

After all, Cardi B is notorious for its lack of staying power.

Alovers just needs to wait patiently, and they will be able to make a comeback!
On the path of standing shoulder to shoulder with legends and pursuing greatness, he not only wants to become the highest mountain, but also the longest river!
Then came the good news from the assistant.

"Boss, boss, pre-sales for 'The Matchmaker' started at midnight today. It's been 14 hours so far. Guess how many tickets it's sold?"

"One hundred million?" Shen Juan casually gave a number.

That's a conservative estimate.

After all, Wang Yibo, who rose to the top of the popularity list last year with "The Untamed" along with Xiao Zhan, has sold 2000 million magazines this year alone.

(In the original timeline, there were 3000 million fans; now, all celebrities in the current timeline have been affected by Shen Juan, and their fan counts have shrunk to varying degrees.)

"It's less!" the assistant exclaimed excitedly.

"Then 1.5 billion?"

"It's still not enough!"

"It's been less than a day, and it's already worth two hundred million?" Shen Juan finally put down his phone, frowned, and began to take the matter seriously.

"Why can't it be? It's already reached 2.3 million! And this is just the data from the first 14 hours of pre-sales. There are still six and a half days until the official release. Breaking the record is definitely a done deal! And the most important thing is that I saw online that this is not the limit of your fans' enthusiasm! They said that boosting movie box office is different from boosting album sales. Boosting album sales is just about blindly pushing for the opening day, but movie box office requires a steady stream to ensure a good screening rate every day."

Shen Juan really didn't expect this.

"It can only be said that everyone has been holding back for too long this year. Now that cinemas have finally reopened, everyone's desire to watch movies is very strong."

It's worth noting that the top five highest-grossing Chinese films in terms of pre-sale tickets were: 2.94 million yuan for "Monster Hunt 2", 2.6 million yuan for "Detective Chinatown 3" (which was postponed due to a decision to withdraw from the release due to loyalty), 2.38 million yuan for "My People, My Country", 2.33 million yuan for "Better Days", and 2.02 million yuan for "Crazy Alien".

If we include "The Matchmaker," which has already surpassed 200 million in pre-sales, then it means that Shen Juan alone occupies two of the top five spots.

While high pre-sale box office does not necessarily mean high total box office, a film's ability to break out of its niche and achieve high box office returns mainly depends on word-of-mouth.

If the quality is poor, having a lot of fans won't help!
For example, the actor who played Guo Jing in the movie "Potato" did his best, but the movie only managed to get 6.89 million yuan at the box office thanks to "Little Flying Man" and the Spring Festival holiday bonus.

However, it is undeniable that this set of data has fully demonstrated the strong spending power of Shen Juan's fans and his appeal to the market! This influence alone, capable of stirring up the market, is enough to prove his unparalleled commercial value, making his industry position more and more solid and stronger!
(I heard that the pre-sales of "The Matchmaker" are going to break records. Tian Jie, the female lead, excitedly posted on Weibo that she would be giving away ten cookies she made herself to fans in the Spring Super Topic. Shen Juan did not comment on this, but simply left a devil emoji in the comments section of his main account, wishing the fans good luck.)

The crew of the TV series "The Sword and the Snow" at Xiangshan Film and Television City.

Originally intending to make allies to jointly defend against powerful enemies, I didn't expect to meet new friends in the process. It makes one sigh: in life, we will always meet some soulmates. Most of them are just passersby, but a few are fortunate enough to walk with us for a while.

For example, this actor who plays a sweet potato.

Zhou found her quite interesting.

Humorous, lively, cheerful, and can take a joke.

Her personality is not at all as bad as the rumors online suggest.

We can eat together and go to the bathroom together regularly.

Whether they can continue their relationship or how long their friendship will last remains to be seen, but at least for now, they have become partners on set.

that's enough.

And most importantly, they don't like Shen Juan.

She made it clear that she doesn't like boyfriends who are too handsome.

That would make her feel insecure.

She even stated repeatedly that she absolutely could not accept her boyfriend keeping fish and did not understand why Zhou Ye loved him so much.

Although my words were somewhat offensive.

However, this did significantly reduce Zhou Ye's sense of danger and vigilance towards Meng Ziyi, while at the same time greatly increasing his favorability towards him.

After all, this situation is extremely rare and uncommon!
Perhaps it's due to the "lucky one bias," or maybe the law of attraction or some other random thing, but almost all the girls who have appeared around Shen Juan over the years have harbored unusual feelings for her. This forces her to assume the worst about their thoughts. Since they're all just philandering cats trying to steal her man, there's no need for gentlemanly conduct; let's just fight!

Opponents of the same level need to be taken seriously and guarded against.

Lower-level opponents need to be monitored and won over.

As for those stubborn elements who refuse to be educated, military force must be demonstrated, and iron-fisted suppression must be carried out with swift and decisive measures!

Her goal is to spread loyalty throughout the land!
Therefore, Zhou felt completely at ease with Meng Ziyi, a peer with whom he had no conflict of interest.

Sister Meng is like a mother to her, often sharing her tips on how to win over her boyfriend and giving her meticulous care.

She has been there for a very, very long time.
I haven't experienced such a refreshing and gentle feeling since.

A woman like that could never be a bad person!

At least for her, absolutely not!
Meanwhile, when Meng Ziyi learned from Zhou Ye that Shen Juan was coming to visit the set, she became excited and thrilled.

Of course, he maintained his calm and composed demeanor on the surface.

Holy crap!

Did I hear that right?!
Shen Juan is coming to visit us on set!!!

Holy crap! I never thought I, Meng Ziyi, would one day meet a superstar of this caliber! Looks like my years in the industry have finally paid off; I can even be friends with Shen Juan's girlfriend now.

Hahaha, visiting the set is great! Visiting the set is wonderful!

Compared to Shen Juan, Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo are nothing!

All their fans combined don't even amount to half of Shen Juan's!

No, saying even half of it would be an insult to Shen Juan!

If the statistical scope is expanded to the global level, these two combined would probably only be able to slightly rival one-tenth of Shen Juan.

Shi Yi has tens of millions of fans!

However, we must also be mindful of our limits and not get carried away!

After all, she has already offended Xiao Zhan's fans.

Her current bad reputation is all thanks to them!
So if she accidentally offends Shen Juan's fans, her career might just be over.

允悲
Filled with this mix of nervousness and anticipation, Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ye shared an umbrella and waited in the sun.

When sweat started to bead on my forehead, I finally saw a black minivan appear in the distance at the edge of my vision.

Meng Ziyi immediately urged Zhou Ye to wave in that direction.

The van seemed to have caught the signal from the two women, drove towards them, and then came to a smooth stop on the side of the road.

The car door opened from the inside, and the people in the back seat stepped out.

Meng Ziyi cleared her throat, about to greet him, but when she saw Shen Juan's face, she was stunned and speechless.

Holy crap! Is he really that handsome?!

The impact of seeing a real person is truly different.

With those looks, that figure, and that charisma, she's absolutely top-tier!

No wonder Xiao Ye loves it so much!

His handsome face alone is enough to be his winning weapon, not to mention his advantages and special skills that outsiders cannot see!
Under Meng Ziyi's increasingly dazzled gaze, Shen Juan first cuddled with Zhou Ye, who had practically thrown herself into his arms, for a while, then turned around and smiled at her.

"Hello, you must be Meng Ziyi. Xiao Ye mentioned you to me before. Thank you for spending time with her these past few days."

Admiring this stunningly handsome face up close—a face so handsome it could make one's legs go weak—Meng Ziyi had only one thought in her mind at that moment.

I now retract what I said before.
is there time?
She felt that she had drawn her conclusions too early.

She's a bit too confident.

She wasn't as principled as I'd imagined, and the impact Shen Juan had on her was far greater than I'd expected.

Although she still feels that she can only feel secure with an average-looking boyfriend, and she particularly values ​​the emotional value that her partner can provide, it doesn't seem so bad to occasionally have a relationship with a top-tier handsome guy who is breathtakingly good-looking, where the process is all that matters and the ending is not!

Don't blame your sister for being inhuman, blame your brother-in-law for being too charming.

Xiao Ye.
I never had the thought of betraying you!

I'm still that trustworthy and wonderful older sister!

Just my brain and my happy beans
I chose him without my knowledge.

Honestly, I'm at my wit's end too.
(Zhou Ye: Damn it, my sword has never been dull!)
We successfully picked up the person and took them back to the RV to rest.

Not long after, Zhang Tian'ai, who had just finished filming, also rushed over, still wearing the makeup and hair of Nangong Pushe.

"I've been asking you to visit the set for ages, but you've only just come now. Shen Juan, don't you know how much I've missed you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she sat directly on Shen Juan's lap in front of Zhou Ye and Meng Ziyi, then snuggled into his arms, skillfully starting her "Morgan Era" act. She appeared generous and unpretentious, as if demonstrating her aphrodisiac skills to others was the most normal thing in the world.

On the contrary, Shen Juan felt a little embarrassed by being rubbed: "You know I've been practicing driving all this time."

"I don't care! I want you to make it up to me!" Zhang Tianai deliberately adjusted her sitting posture so that she could feel the warmth better.

Shen Juan glanced at Xiao Ye subconsciously, and seeing that she was at least outwardly indifferent, he replied, "What kind of compensation do you want?"

"Tonight." Zhang Tianai gently pulled Shen Juan's hand, pressing his palm tightly against her soft chest. Her eyes, filled with affection and a hint of bitterness, held an unspeakable expectation and longing, and her voice softened as she spoke. "Stay with me, okay?"

"Uh," Shen Juan looked in the direction of someone again.

Zhou Ye's smile remained unchanged, but inwardly she was cursing through gritted teeth: "That shameless slut!"

I must have been completely blinded by greed and greed to even think of bringing someone like that into my team! What bad luck!

Naza is right!
Zhang Tian'ai is not someone you should get too close to!
"Holy crap! She's burning up!" Meng Ziyi was secretly alarmed, but also felt a strange mix of excitement and anticipation.

Whether or not to get involved, or whether or not to associate with them, is another matter for now.

Anyway, this fishpond is really interesting!
So many young and beautiful girls gather together, scheming and competing, or uniting with each other through different bonds to form their own teams, or becoming aloof and proud lone wolves fighting alone. Moreover, every year fresh blood enters the league through the draft, bringing vitality to the fishpond.

She had never seen such a fun real-life game!

The competitive desire for females, ingrained deep in their genes, is surging!
Just for fun!

So she felt it was understandable that she was momentarily overwhelmed.

After all, my sister is human too.

My sister also needs to be happy and joyful.

Instead of answering Ai Bao's question, which was not convenient to answer directly, Shen Juan started a new topic and continued the conversation.

"Xiao Ye will be going to Changsha with me tomorrow to record Happy Camp, and then we will be holding a movie premiere in Shanghai on the evening of the 24th. Do you have time to attend? Just think of it as going to see a movie."

"The night of the 24th?"

"Correct."

"I had a night scene to film that night." Zhang Tianai didn't really want to go to the set to see Shen Juan and other women showing affection.

She has a strong possessive streak towards her partner.

They also need a lot of security and emotional value.

So if Shen Juan didn't actually possess extraordinary qualities that allowed her to experience many wonderful feelings she had never had or even imagined before, she wouldn't have turned a blind eye to Shen Juan's scumbag behavior like that stinky bastard Nazha who used her love-struck brain to cover up her true nature.

Just as Aibao finished speaking, and Shen Juan was about to say "It's okay," an unexpected voice appeared.

"Um, I do have some free time!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Juan looked at Meng Ziyi, who was sitting upright with a bright smile, and vaguely smelled a familiar scent on her.

He had smelled it on other women more than once.

Yes, back when Chuanbao was bullied by Sister Tian and forced to pretend to be friendly with Xiaoye, he looked exactly like this.

The two of them look so alike!

Looking at it this way, Shen Juan felt that Xiao Ye's new friend named Meng Ziyi was definitely not a good person either.

However, that's not the problem we need to address right now.

The most pressing issue now is how to feed our hungry baby without making Xiao Ye upset.

Is the resource allocation method like playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game)?

Or two halves?

I always felt that playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) was unrealistic.

After all, the two of them didn't seem to know each other very well.

So let's stick to the usual two halves.
