This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 338 What a man, skilled in both literature and martial arts!
Originally, Lu Ran's plan did not include the Youth Day gala.

But since CCTV has invited me, there's no reason not to go.

Just in time for the premiere of "A Man of Both Literary and Martial Arts," Lu Ran already had an answer in mind about what song to sing at the Youth Day gala.

His main tasks these days are to finish making the fully automatic guzheng and to write his graduation thesis and prepare for his defense.

It's a good time to work on two new songs with Wang Jiayue.

After redeeming two songs from the system, Lu Ran organized the files and gave one copy to Li Quan, asking him to submit it to the Youth Day Gala's directing team for review.

One of the song files was sent to Wang Jiayue.

"Comrade Jiayue, this song is now in your hands."

Wang Jiayue opened the file and took a look.

The song is called "Misplaced Time and Space".

There is a special May Fourth edition of this song on Earth, and Lu Ran chose this version.

Wang Jiayue continued reading the lyrics below.

Wang Jiayue was deeply moved by just the first sentence.

It's such a song.

"I look up at the starry sky you have seen, and we meet again across a hundred years."

When she saw the chorus, Wang Jiayue's eyes were already a little red.

As a singer, the ability to resonate with emotions is essential.

She put herself in the song and experienced the emotions it conveyed.

Singing such a song at a Youth Day gala would definitely be a great success.

It could even be said that it was an honor for her to sing this song for the first time.

Wang Jiayue said to Lu Ran, "Thank you, Director Lu!"

"You're welcome. Take these few days to prepare, and come to record the song in a few days."

After arranging the Youth Day gala, Lu Ran threw himself into his studies.

Tencent Video and Dongsun Video had already called Lu Ran in advance.

Ji Yongsheng and Zhang Tao were both unwilling to concede to each other and both wanted to acquire the broadcasting rights for "Able to Martial Arts and Literature".

They didn't care what Xu Gaomin said; they still had to buy it.

However, when Gao Yuhui's message came that "A Man of Both Literary and Martial Arts" had passed the review, Ji Yongsheng and Zhang Tao also received their respective replies.

The drama "Able to Martial Arts and Literature" has only six episodes and is available on two platforms.

The reason it's not exclusive is still due to the unique nature of the subject matter.

The Red Star Art and Culture Center is even arranging for the show to be broadcast on satellite TV, but this is more complicated than online streaming, mainly because there are only six episodes.

This left the purchasing department at a loss, as they had never bought such a short series before.

Finally, Dongsun Video and Tencent Video jointly purchased the online broadcasting rights for "Able to Be Both Literary and Martial" and set a broadcast date.

Lu Ran also officially announced online that "Able to be Both Literary and Martial" will be broadcast soon.

"The TV series 'Li Yannian, a Man of Both Literary and Martial Arts' is about to be released! This is the first war-themed work I have participated in, and also the first time I have played the real-life hero, Instructor Li Yannian. A hopeful nation cannot be without heroes, and a promising country cannot be without pioneers."

The message has been released and immediately attracted the attention of netizens.

"After much anticipation, he's finally here. Let me see the strength of Director Lu."

"The last time I saw Director Lu perform was last year. Director Lu's pace is still a bit slow."

"That last sentence is well said!"

It’s almost time for the show to start.

Dongsun Video and Tencent Video are both providing promotional resources for this drama.

Length doesn't matter, attitude is the most important.

Lu Ran's fans clicked play immediately.

The content of the first episode was presented to the audience.

The story begins with footage of our army negotiating with the enemy, which sets the stage for the narrative.

By this time, the war was nearing its end, and the enemy continued to fight our army on the battlefield in order to gain more bargaining chips.

This round of negotiations ultimately failed to reach an agreement.

The enemy uttered that famous line.

"Since neither side has anything to say, let the machine guns and cannons speak."

Meanwhile, our friendly forces also said something.

"What you can't get at the negotiating table, you can't get on the battlefield either."

Our representative also said, "It won't be long before you return to the negotiating table, and you will certainly retract this shameless proposal on your own initiative."

The story's background is introduced through Lu Ran's narration in Hebei dialect.

The camera gradually returned to the camp, where the battalion commander was holding an operations meeting with the company commanders.

Many netizens were still confused after seeing this.

"I've never seen a meeting like this before."

"It was quite interesting. It felt like I was in a meeting, discussing the combat situation with everyone."

This is precisely what makes "A Man of Both Literary and Martial Arts" so excellent. The series is incredibly detailed.

After the company commander of the Seventh Company got into an argument with the others, Instructor Li made his official appearance.

Instructor Li's analysis convinced the group of people, and even Liu Jialong, the company commander of the Seventh Company, agreed with Instructor Li's combat strategy.

It wasn't until this part of the story ended that netizens realized what had happened.

"This person is Lu Ran."

"Huh? I didn't even notice until you pointed it out, how did it get so dark?"

"Director Lu's acting skills are so superb, I really didn't realize it was him."

Many celebrities are just playing themselves no matter what role they play.

In this aspect, Lu Ran's acting skills are superior.

Watching this drama evoked a special feeling in the audience.

That is, this drama is different from many war films on the market.

But no one could immediately pinpoint exactly what the difference was.

But this show has a unique magic that keeps everyone watching.

Before long, everyone saw Xiao Andong being caught and brought back as a deserter, and Instructor Li giving a speech to reassure the troops.

"Our country is incredibly powerful and will not tolerate being bullied!"

When these words were spoken, many viewers were moved to tears.

Instructor Li continued, "For the sake of our country and our loved ones, are we afraid of death?"

The soldiers of the Seventh Company shouted in unison, "We are not afraid!"

Are you afraid of enemy planes and artillery?

"Not afraid!"

"Can we complete the mission assigned to us by our superiors? Drive those American devils back to the negotiating table!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, "Yes! Yes! We definitely can!"

Instructor Li said slowly, "Okay, I believe in everyone."

At this moment, not only the soldiers of the Seventh Company on screen, but many viewers also felt their blood boiling.

"These Japanese devils, I wish I could go to the battlefield and kill them!"

"I think I understand what the instructor does now. This is what the instructor really does."

“When I watched these kinds of movies before, the characters would shout slogans and I always felt that they were a bit unrealistic. But this movie felt very grounded in reality.”

Xiao Andong deserted, specifically before the Seventh Company was about to carry out a combat mission.

This is a major event that could shake the morale of the army.

If this is not addressed, the public will not be satisfied.

But dealing with Little Anton wouldn't be worth it.

At that moment, the soldiers of the Seventh Company took the initiative to persuade Instructor Li to let Xiao Andong go and let him atone for his crime by performing meritorious service.

After listening to Instructor Li's words, Xiao Andong understood something.

That's what he fought for!

He was worried about Erniu's life or death, so he wanted to go back to find her!
But the area he was in was Andong, which was frequently bombed by the enemy!
There, if the enemy came, they could only watch helplessly as their loved ones were blown up.

Only here can you truly protect your loved ones.

As long as our soldiers defeat the enemy here, their planes will not bomb our loved ones!

Only then can we truly protect them!
In the end, Li Yannian shot the tree trunk next to Xiao Antong's head.

This shot is to give everyone an explanation, and also to give little Anton an explanation.

Instructor Li said earnestly, "Little Andong, you've already died once as a deserter. From now on, you're no longer living for one Erniu, but for protecting millions of Erniu."

Before they knew it, the audience had finished watching the first episode.

Some viewers thought of the play's title.

"What a man who is both literate and skilled in martial arts! This Li Yannian is truly both literate and skilled in martial arts."

"This episode impressed me with its professionalism, attention to detail, and authenticity."

"Who says you can't make a good drama in a short time? Look, this one was made."

"It's great! I'm watching episode two now!"

The first episode basically introduced all the main characters.

Although the drama revolves around Li Yannian, it also portrays a series of very distinctive supporting characters.

Xiao Andong's squad leader would beg the company commander to spare Xiao Andong when he was captured, because he knew what Erniu meant to Xiao Andong.

There's also Chen Yanzong, the class monitor of Class Two. He heard people say that his name means "to be perfunctory towards one's ancestors," which is a bad name.

Wang Yuwen, the clerk, reinterpreted the name for Chen Yanzong, explaining that it meant to procreate and inherit the wishes of the ancestors, specifically to marry early and have many children.

That sense of realism truly reflects the camaraderie among the grassroots soldiers.

When everyone saw the second episode, Li Yannian's professionalism was once again on full display.

The previous episode was about why we fight, and this episode is about why we can win.
