Huayu 2021: Isn’t he in the technology field?

Chapter 372 You came to find me, will the female lead be angry?
As October draws to a close, the autumn atmosphere grows stronger.

For the next two days, all the main creators of the Lighter movie crew threw themselves into an intensive promotional schedule, like clocks wound up tightly, rushing between film studios, studios, and online live streaming rooms.

In variety shows, they participate in games, generating constant laughter.

In the interview, they shared behind-the-scenes stories and some little-known details of the filming process.

During the live stream, they patiently answered fans' questions, showing their sincerity.

As the male and female leads, Jiang Qing and Zhang Jingyi were naturally the focus of all the activities.

In front of the camera, they are a perfectly in sync "Destiny's Journey", and a single glance can trigger screams from the audience and viewers.

The high-intensity work did not diminish their professionalism; on the contrary, their natural familiarity with each collaboration was fully demonstrated.

Unlike before the premiere of "The Beginning," when Jiang Qing was busy filming, this time she was almost constantly on the go for promotional activities.

The only challenge is that, between each day's schedule, Jiang Qing has to find time to soothe Zhou Ye's little moods, a cycle that repeats itself endlessly.

Not only Zhou Ye, but even the usually well-behaved Zhao Jinmai showed dissatisfaction this time, not to mention Liu Haocun, who was angered and ran away in Luyang last time.

Even someone as carefree as Meng Ziyi couldn't help but complain to Jiang Qing, declaring that she would cut off contact with Jiang Qing during the airing of their drama to avoid feeling heartbroken while watching it.

This shows how others reacted.

There has been so much material about Jiang Qing and Zhang Jingyi appearing together in the past few days that it has practically taken over all the major social media platforms.

Even if you don't actively follow her, various apps will still push notifications to you, after all, Jiang Qing's popularity is no joke.

Finally, November 1st arrived, officially marking the start of November.

At this point, there were less than two days left before the series officially premiered.

In the morning, the main cast and crew gathered in a studio to prepare for shooting an important set of promotional posters and short videos for the premiere.

The studio was brightly lit, and the backdrop, reflectors, and camera positions were all set up. Staff members were busy making final adjustments.

The atmosphere in the dressing room was relaxed.

Zhang Jingyi had already finished part of her makeup and styling. She was wearing a milky white knitted sweater and had a cute apple-shaped hairstyle. She was holding her phone and looking at something with Zeng Keni next to her, occasionally letting out a silvery laugh.

Zhao Zhiwei was discussing last night's basketball game with Cui Yuxin and Mark, occasionally gesturing with his hands.

Jiang Qing sat in front of the makeup mirror, closed her eyes, and let the makeup artist fix her hair.

Liu Junjie pushed the door open and came in from the outside. His face was solemn, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his steps were more hurried than usual.

"Everyone, please stop for a moment. There's an emergency I need to tell you."

Liu Junjie's voice gradually quieted the laughter in the dressing room, and everyone's eyes turned to him.

Liu Junjie looked around and took a deep breath.

"We just received a message from above that they think the element of a lighter in our show's title is... not very appropriate. It may have a negative influence on young viewers, implying or... easily reminding them of unhealthy behaviors such as smoking, and there is a risk of encouraging imitation."

He looked at the stunned crowd.

"Therefore, we are required to... change our name."

"Change your name?"

"This...it's about to start airing!"

"What's wrong with a lighter? It's Li Xun's signature item. What negative influence does it have?"

"Seriously? Changing your name now?"

For a moment, the dressing room was completely silent; everyone was stunned by the sudden news.

Many people's faces were filled with astonishment, confusion, and even absurdity.

The relaxed and pleasant atmosphere from before vanished, replaced by a sense of bewilderment and helplessness.

After preparing and promoting for so long, we were told at the last minute that the name was not acceptable?
It was like a bucket of cold water being poured over my head.

Zhang Jingyi's head spun for a moment, her hand still unconsciously holding her phone. Her eyes widened slightly as she looked at Liu Junjie, then subconsciously turned towards Jiang Qing, her face showing a hint of helplessness.

The title of the show accompanied the entire filming and pre-production promotion, and now they suddenly say they want to change it without any warning, which is really catching everyone off guard.

Amidst this oppressive atmosphere, a calm and unhurried voice broke the stillness.

"Since this is the requirement, let's change it."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Jiang Qing who was speaking.

He had opened his eyes at some point and looked at everyone through the mirror, his expression calm and normal, as if what he had just heard was not a thorny piece of bad news, but just an ordinary problem that needed to be solved.

He turned around, faced the crowd, and spoke calmly.

"There's a line in the original novel that goes, 'Everything turned out better than I imagined, simply because of you, who ignited me and warmed me.' The core of Li Xun and Zhu Yun's story is actually a process of mutually igniting each other, warming each other, and growing together. So..."

He paused slightly, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before finally settling on Liu Junjie.

"Let's call the new drama 'Ignite Me, Warm You.' It fits the overall tone of the drama, is positive and warm enough, and should meet the requirements."

"Ignite Me, Warm You..."

Director Liu Junjie repeated it subconsciously, his tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxing, and the seriousness in his eyes being replaced by contemplation.

"Ignite me, warm you... mutually fulfilling, mutually redeeming... Great! This is excellent! Jiang Qing, your suggestion is superb! It's relevant, meets the requirements, and the sentiment is just right!"

He clapped his hands suddenly, a smile finally appearing on his face as he looked at the reactions of the others.

Zhang Jingyi, who had been in a daze, immediately turned to look at Jiang Qing after hearing his words.

Jiang Qing's gaze swept over her, and when she met Jiang Qing's still somewhat bewildered look, she smiled gently at her.

Seeing his smile and hearing his advice, Zhang Jingyi's sudden panic instantly dissipated.

She began to carefully consider the name.

"Light me, and I'll warm you..."

Yes, Li Xun is someone who is fiery and even a little scorching, while Zhu Yun is like a warm light. Isn't that the kind of relationship between them?
This name not only perfectly avoids the risk of so-called "bad guidance," but also directly hits the core of the story, and is even more fitting and flavorful than the original title.

Sure enough, he always makes people feel so at ease.

Of course, it would be even better if he weren't so fickle!

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingyi glared at Jiang Qing, leaving him completely bewildered.

What's wrong with this girl again?
A lapse in concentration?

"I think Dr. Jiang's name change is excellent!"

Zeng Keni was the first to react and excitedly expressed his agreement.

"It feels even better than the original one!"

"That's right! 'Ignite Me, Warm You' sounds like it tells a story."

Zhao Zhiwei quickly echoed this sentiment.

"And it perfectly matches Li Xun and Zhu Yun's character settings and relationship! There are absolutely no problems!"

Qian Didi also excitedly raised her hand to vote.

The atmosphere in the dressing room instantly became lively again, and everyone agreed with Jiang Qing's quick-thinking new name.

The initial distress and frustration were easily resolved by Jiang Qing's casual remark.

Director Liu Junjie was in a great mood and immediately made the decision.

"Okay! It's settled then! I'll notify the platform and the publicity team immediately. The new title will be 'Ignite Me, Warm You'! The official Weibo account should prepare to announce the name change right away!"

That's how the new title for the drama was decided.

The matter was resolved satisfactorily, and the filming proceeded smoothly.

That afternoon, the official Weibo account of "Lighter and Princess Dress" released a name change announcement, officially announcing that the drama's name has been changed to "Ignite Me, Warm You", and attached a brand new poster with the new title.

The news naturally sparked a heated discussion online.

Netizens expressed their surprise.

"Huh? They suddenly changed the name?" "《Lighter and Princess Dress》 was so much better, why change it?"

"I heard it's because lighters might encourage bad habits? That's... hard to say!"

"But the new name, 'Ignite Me, Warm You,' sounds great too! It really captures the theme!"

"The person upstairs is right. Li Xun is like a block of ice, and Zhu Yun is the light that warms him! What a great name!"

"As long as the show is good, the name doesn't matter! Looking forward to episode 1103!"

"The new name is more straightforward and sweeter! I love it!"

……

Although a few netizens expressed their preference for the original name, finding it more distinctive, the vast majority of netizens understood the name change and felt that the new name, "Ignite Me, Warm You," was equally excellent, even adding a touch of romance and warmth, thus raising expectations rather than lowering them.

In the evening, after a busy day of promotional filming, everyone was a little tired.

Jiang Qing hosted a dinner for everyone at a high-end creative cuisine restaurant on the top floor of the China World Trade Center Phase 3.

The restaurant has an elegant and private ambiance with a great atmosphere.

After everyone sat down, they naturally started talking about the name change they had made during the day.

"Honestly, Mr. Jiang, we owe you a lot for your quick thinking today."

Director Liu Junjie raised his teacup and offered tea to Jiang Qing in lieu of wine.

"Otherwise, we'll really be at a loss. It's not easy to come up with a suitable and meaningful name on short notice."

After saying that, he drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.

"Yes, Jiang Qing, how did you remember that line so clearly: 'Everything turned out better than I imagined, just because of you, who ignited me and warmed me'? My mind went completely blank at the time."

Zhang Jingyi turned her head to look at Jiang Qing beside her, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Jiang Qing smiled and casually poured her a cup of tea.

"I just happened to remember it. And the name itself fits the plot, so it makes perfect sense."

"Dr. Jiang's approach has solved a major problem quite logically."

Zhao Zhiwei picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and talked as he ate.

"The title 'Ignite Me, Warm You' sounds better and better now, and it might even be more likely to go viral than the original one."

"The main reason is that President Jiang is well-versed in the original work and reacts quickly. It seems he has put in a lot of effort in private."

Zeng Keni added with a smile.

Jiang Qing smiled, not taking credit for the topic, but naturally picked up the serving chopsticks and put a piece of cherry foie gras, which Zhang Jingyi seemed to have glanced at a few times, on her plate. Then she smoothly changed the subject.

"Everyone should try this foie gras; it should taste good. This restaurant has a great reputation, especially for its selection of ingredients and control of cooking time and temperature."

His comments immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Mmm! It's really delicious!"

Zhang Jingyi took a bite and immediately nodded in praise, her eyes squinting with satisfaction.

"It's really good."

Liu Junjie also tried the other dishes and nodded in approval.

At this moment, Qian Didi suddenly remembered something and raised a finger.

"Hey, speaking of this shop, I heard their macarons are especially famous. Apparently, they're made by a French pastry chef, and they only make a limited quantity each day. If you come late, you won't get any. Shall we order some to try?"

"Really? Then you absolutely have to order it!"

Zeng Keni responded immediately.

Zhang Jingyi also put down her chopsticks, her face showing anticipation.

Few girls dislike desserts.

"Quick, waiter, please check if we have any macarons left!"

Zeng Keni quickly called the waiter.

Everyone enthusiastically ordered desserts, making the atmosphere even more lively.

Amidst the laughter and conversation, Jiang Qing put down her napkin and nodded slightly to everyone.

"Everyone, please continue your conversation. I need to use the restroom."

Zhang Jingyi was discussing with Qian Didi which flavor of macaron was better when she heard this. She just glanced at him and didn't think much of it.

Jiang Qing stood up and walked out of the private room at a leisurely pace.

However, instead of heading towards the restroom, he walked along the corridor, familiarly heading deeper into the restaurant.

He walked steadily, with a clear goal in mind, and after navigating several turns, finally stopped in front of an unassuming dark wooden door.

He glanced around and, seeing that no one was around, raised his hand and gently knocked on the door with his fingers.

"Please come in."

A slightly languid female voice came from inside.

Jiang Qing pushed open the door and entered.

This is an elegantly decorated office that serves as both a workspace and a meeting room.

There was a faint fragrance in the air.

Jiang Qing glanced up and her gaze was immediately drawn to the slender figure standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

She was facing away from the door, gazing at the night view of the capital city outside the window.

She wore a pink dress with a high slit on one side, which vaguely revealed the lines of her plump and fair thighs.

The long dress perfectly hugged the smooth, graceful curves of her back, highlighting her slender waist.

Her long, jet-black hair was carefully styled and coiled at the back of her head, revealing her graceful swan neck and smooth, rounded shoulders. A few wisps of hair lazily fell to the side of her neck, adding a touch of charm.

Hearing the door open, the tall figure slowly turned around.

Under the light, her face was fully revealed.

Her makeup was impeccable, with her eyebrows and eyes particularly striking. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her lips were full, adorned with a peach-colored lip gloss that shimmered with an alluring sheen.

However, what is most striking is those eyes.

Her eyes droop naturally at the corners, curving slightly like two sweet crescent moons, clear and bright. Her pupils are as black and shiny as black gemstones immersed in water, and her eyes naturally reveal a hint of sweetness as they move.

These are extremely beautiful crescent-shaped eyes.

Combined with her sexy and elegant outfit, it blends sweetness with the charm and allure of a mature woman, creating a fatal attraction that is both sweet and seductive.

Upon seeing Jiang Qing, a bright smile immediately bloomed on her face, her crescent-shaped eyes curving even deeper, so sweet it seemed to overflow with honey.

"Here you are, Dr. Jiang."

Li Yitong was the first to greet them, her tone affectionate.

"Since Sister Yitong has spoken, I naturally have to come."

Jiang Qing slowly approached her, looking her up and down with admiration.

Li Yitong smiled and took the initiative to hug his waist, tilting her face up with a sly smile in her eyes.

"Dr. Jiang, you sneaked out to see me. Won't the female lead be angry if she finds out?"

His tone was wicked.

Jiang Qing looked at the older sister in front of her, her eyes narrowing slightly.

Then, he slowly lowered his head, his gaze fixed on her dilated pupils.

"Hmm~"
