Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

Chapter 145 You Roll, I Roll
"Nonoguchi's writing style is too calm, it's almost like he's writing a story. He describes in detail how Hidaka frankly admits to poisoning his neighbor's cat, which I find strange."

"There is also Nono Osamu's complicated feelings toward Hidaka. He calls Hidaka a friend on the surface, but there is a sense of estrangement between the lines."

Why aren't you saying anything, An'an?

Shen Yutong excitedly shared her speculations about "Malice" while Qi Luoan found it noisy.

Yu Wei had already spoiled the whole plot for her.

To make it easier for her to write plagiarism articles, Yu Wei basically told her everything she could, including all the foreshadowing and plot twists that followed...

When a friend talks about something you're familiar with, and you have to pretend you don't know it to avoid embarrassment: you might just have to force a smile and act nonchalant.jpg

"Perhaps he... is cold-hearted by nature."

To avoid spoiling the plot for her best friend, Qi Luoan could only make up stories with a straight face.

Shen Yutong remained noncommittal upon hearing this, then looked at Qi Luoan with a serious expression. Compared to the sequel to the novel, she was actually more concerned about what this guy had been busy with lately.
They almost lost their spark yesterday.

"It's all just bubbles~"

Qi Luo'an knew what she wanted to ask, so he could only sing a random line to change the subject. No wonder Yu Wei didn't tell anyone when she started writing her novel.

She had wanted to explain things to Shen Yutong several times, but the thought of her writing being analyzed word by word made her too embarrassed to do so.

Shen Yutong originally wanted to bring her back to the entertainment industry, but now that she sees herself writing this, she can't help but criticize her for neglecting her duties.

"You sang well, so what have you been busy with lately?"

"It's nothing..."

Shen Yutong was determined to get to the bottom of this today. She had a feeling that Qi Luoan was hiding something from her, and that it was related to her.

"If you don't tell me, I'll keep bothering you."

Qi Luoan couldn't sit still any longer. How could she write if she kept following along? She hadn't updated today's content yet.

Moreover, based on her understanding of Shen Yutong, she was not joking at all; if she said she would pester him, she really meant it, stalking him relentlessly.

On one hand, there was an unspeakable sense of shame; on the other, there was a desperate sense of helplessness. Qi Luo'an gritted his teeth, deciding that if all else failed, he would just tell her...

However, this thought was interrupted by the sudden ringing of the phone; the caller ID still showed Yu Wei.

Savior!
Under Shen Yutong's puzzled gaze, Qi Luoan cautiously answered the phone, not knowing what he wanted to talk to her about.

"Hey, I'm visiting Yu Tong's house right now."

Qi Luoan's voice sounded slightly reserved on the other end of the phone. Yu Wei was taken aback when she heard this, not expecting her to start with such a sentence.

Who asked you?

However, he could roughly guess that Qi Luo'an was probably afraid that he would bring up the fact that she was writing a novel, so she was giving him a heads-up.

How could that be? As a seasoned writer who has failed at writing, Yu Weike understands this awkward situation all too well. After all, there's not much to talk about with online novels.

Do you have a passport? If not, then forget it.

The Luwen International Film Festival document invited three members of the creative team behind "Andhadhun": Lü Zhou, himself, and Qi Luoan.

As for Zhang Lingye, he played a corpse, lying down and sitting there, so there was really no need to invite him.

As the director, Lü Zhou was definitely going. He called to confirm whether Qi Luoan was going or not, and if so, the Film Association could process his work visa.

The premise is that she has a passport, and applying for a passport takes at least a few days, so applying now is obviously a bit late.

Yu Wei didn't actually have one before, but after hearing that "The Tuner" was shortlisted for the Lu Wen Award, the company had the foresight to help him get it done.

"Yes, yes, I applied for it after the college entrance exam in preparation for a trip abroad, but I didn't need it, it hasn't expired yet..."

Going abroad is such a troublesome thing, she definitely wouldn't go if Yu Wei didn't go, especially now that she has a clingy person by her side.

I have to go now.

"Then bring your passport and passport photo to our company as soon as possible. We will prepare the rest for you."

The visa application process is quite complicated, so having the company and film association handle it would undoubtedly make things much easier.

Although Qi Luoan is not an artist, it is still possible for her to apply in the name of her team, since her name is indeed on the invitation letter.

"You heard me too, I have something to do."

Shen Yutong was speechless for a moment. She certainly wouldn't stop others from doing their business, but if An'an went abroad, she would have even less chance to find out the truth about this matter.

For someone with a strong sense of curiosity, this feeling is not much different from the ending of a novel at its climax.

……

Yu Weizhen never expected that so many people would accompany him when he went abroad. Firefly Chinese Language Education specially formed an international activity team for him.

The company has a full range of services, including agents, assistants, stylists, makeup artists, translators, and even professional international lawyers and tax advisors.

Isn't this a bit too comprehensive?

Clearly, the company values ​​Yu Wei exceptionally highly. When he renewed his contract, he was just a promising talent with representative works, but now he has grown into a dragon-slaying prodigy.

And only he truly succeeded in killing them...

Although it was just a very ordinary business contract, the revenue he brought to the company was still considerable.

Coupled with its continuous popularity and influence, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they treat Yu Wei like a treasure, let alone pay her any attention.

Moreover, this isn't just their idea; the Film Association has also stated that winning an award or not is irrelevant, but losing face is unacceptable. This is the first time a domestic short film has been shortlisted for the Lu Wen Awards, and the process is more important than the result, therefore, the level of professionalism must be at its highest.

"Oh my god, a ten-hour flight."

Qi Luoan had never been on a plane for so long before, flying directly across most of the planet, from the East Eighth Time Zone to the East First Time Zone.

Perhaps because she was going abroad, she dressed very conservatively today, wearing a purple sweatshirt and wide-leg shorts, looking much more demure than usual.

"You'll arrive after a nap."

Yu Wei appeared calm, but it was actually his first time taking an international flight, and he would probably have to deal with jet lag once he arrived, which would be quite a hassle.

However, he can overcome this minor difficulty, after all, it's a publicly funded trip...

"I made sure I got plenty of sleep before coming here, so you don't need to sleep."

The two seats were next to each other, and Qi Luoan was really curious about what Yu Wei looked like when he slept, so he could take a look later.

"I won't sleep either; I'll just write a bit on the way."

Actually, typing on a plane is quite uncomfortable; Yu Wei experienced it last time.

But he would feel guilty if he didn't write a single word for ten hours...

Entertainment novels still require plot development, and headaches are common on airplanes, so Yu Wei plans to write something lighthearted. He'll finish writing chapters two and three of "Malice" first and then release them together.

"You still love writing too much."

Qi Luoan was not surprised by this; Yu Wei's love for novels was evident to all.

Judging from his personality, I feel like he'll have to add an extra chapter to celebrate on his wedding day before he even enters the venue.

While checking in, the ground staff recognized Yu Wei and their eyes widened slightly: "I really like your songs. Are you going to a film festival?"

She skillfully checked passports and visas, tagged the luggage, and put it on the conveyor belt.

Yu Wei nodded. It seemed that everyone was paying attention to his trip abroad. He hoped they wouldn't have too high expectations, otherwise it would be embarrassing to come back empty-handed.

As he passed through the boarding bridge, he subconsciously glanced back at the city behind him before turning and stepping into the cabin.

Just don't let it crash...

Yu Wei's seat was by the window, while Qi Luo'an sat on the other side of the aisle. Their eyes met, and then they tacitly pulled out their tablets at the same time to start typing.

You roll it up, I roll it up too!

Liu Ning and Lü Zhou, sitting behind them, were dumbfounded. Was this really necessary? It was one thing for Yu Wei to act this way, but why did Qi Luo'an have to get involved as well?

They wouldn't believe there wasn't something going on if they were so synchronized...

Yu Wei had only been coding for a short while when he looked up and saw a bright camera filming him.

"What is this for?"

"The photographer accompanying the team will film some of your daily life on this trip, and we can edit it into a vlog later, Yu Wei's Lu Wen Award journey."

After all, this is the first time a film and television team in China has been nominated for the Loo Wen Awards, so there must be plenty of behind-the-scenes footage, live coverage, and broadcasts.

They weren't even guaranteed to win the award to begin with. If they didn't even film the process of winning the Lu Wen Award, wouldn't they have wasted their time?
Not only will we film, but we'll also livestream it!
This is the Film Association's decision. The last phone interview with Yu Wei was too hasty. The organizing committee didn't get any attention at all, and the marketing accounts that reposted the news actually got all the traffic.

Now that Yu Wei is attending the Luwen Film Festival, how could they let such a good opportunity slip by? They must keep a close eye on him and follow up at all times.

Many netizens in China are still looking forward to "The Tuner" winning an award, but due to the lack of information and the lack of feedback, the organizing committee decided to hold a live broadcast.

Firefly Chinese has no objection to this, after all, it's a good thing for Yu Wei, as it can maintain his popularity and allow everyone to understand Yu Wei's recent situation.

If they win an award then, with so many viewers witnessing it firsthand, you can imagine how explosive the buzz will be.

Even if we don't get it, at least we have a place to discuss it.

However, it's definitely not possible to broadcast live on the plane. The photographer couldn't resist filming a short video of Yu Wei typing so intently, so he decided to use it as the opening sequence.

"live streaming?"

It seems like it's been a long time since Yu Wei last did a live stream. That time, she was singing and didn't chat much with her viewers.

As for the two days when Yu Wei used a secondary account to livestream and write, that doesn't count, because at the time, the audience didn't know it was him.

"Alright."

It seems that Yu Wei has never really done a proper live stream before, so this is a good opportunity for readers and fans to see exotic customs.

Then I can use jet lag as an excuse to take a day off...

The ten hours on the plane were quite long. Yu Wei almost fell asleep halfway through, but when she turned around and saw Qi Luo'an's staring eyes, she was immediately jolted awake.

Qi Luo'an made an excuse that she was watching him type, a common saying that goes, "I'm watching you type." Although she successfully brushed him off, she was clearly somewhat disappointed.

Why is it so hard to see his sleeping posture?
After several hours of flight, the plane began to descend. The change in ear pressure made Yu Wei feel a little uncomfortable. He swallowed a few times to relieve the ear pain.

Taking advantage of the restored internet connection, Yu Wei casually updated his newly released chapter, only to realize after posting it that it must be the middle of the night back home.

What an uncanny update time...

　I'll take a couple of days off to regroup, and then continue with my daily 10,000-word practice tomorrow.
