Huayu09: Starting with Hijacking Xiao Shenyang

At a critical moment.

Fox.com has uploaded the latest video of "Unrivaled: City Showdown" with the title "A Love Story in Guangzhou: Chen Weiting Lost a Viewer's Bag".

This title is very appealing.

If a song makes someone cry or creates a touching moment, most casual viewers won't click to watch it.

"Da da!"

Double-click the mouse to play the video.

Chen Weiting's storytelling voice immediately captivated the audience.

Another great song!

The person surnamed Chen has questionable character, but his talent is undeniably real.

The audience closed their eyes and listened quietly.

Until the song is finished.

I finally figured out how Chen Weiting lost the audience member's bag.

The audience members were so engrossed in listening to "Love Story of Guangzhou" that their bags were stolen. Fortunately, Fan Xuexue noticed in time, preventing any actual loss.

Let's leave that little incident aside.

"Love Story of Guangzhou" has become a hit again, with Guangzhou becoming a trending search term online, following Fengtian.

Internet cafes across the country were packed, but few people were playing games; most were listening to Chen Weiting sing, and their eyes welled up with tears as they listened.

The song "Northeast Folk Song" brought tears to the eyes of Northeasterners who were wandering far from home.

"Love Story of Guangzhou" brought tears to the eyes of migrant workers from all over the country who had left Guangzhou.

This guy's surname is Chen.

Is he some ancient Greek god who controls tears?!

What kind of lousy songs are these?

Sob sob sob...

The next day.

The attendance rate in major cinemas in Beijing has dropped. "Northeast Folk Songs" and "Love Story of Guangzhou" are well-written, but nobody wants to be made a fool of.

We have enough for "Welcome to Beijing," even if it's very official.

Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

"Okay, Mr. Han, I understand. I won't mess things up, and I won't go back on my promise. I'll contact the reporter from Beijing TV right now."

Chen Mo hung up the phone.

"What did Chairman Han say?"

Zhao Benshan said irritably.

This brat, he should have just played by the rules, why did he have to pull off some fancy tricks and provoke everyone's anger?

The wisdom of the people is boundless.

Don't underestimate it!

"They're under a lot of pressure and they're telling us to come up with a solution quickly."

Chen Mo relayed the information truthfully.

"Play the victim."

Zhao Benshan's eyes darted around a few times, and he immediately had an idea.

Angry as I may be, when it comes to protecting my young apprentice, this old master is willing to throw away all pretense of dignity.

"Hehehe, we're thinking the same thing, Master."

Chen Mo chuckled slyly.

"Really? We're truly on the same wavelength! Little apprentice, come here~"

"What are you doing?"

"Come here~ Master's back is itchy, scratch it for Master."

"You really think I'm your third hand!"

Chen Mo rolled his eyes and obediently went over to scratch his master's itch.

however.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Benshan gave Chen Mo a flick on the forehead.

Sneak attack!

Chen Mo covered his head and shouted that this was unethical.

"Pfft..."

Seeing the two of them joking around, Liu Yifei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

That felt so satisfying!

Even a scoundrel can be ambushed.

Thank you, Teacher Zhao, for teaching me!

One o'clock in the afternoon.

A reporter from Beijing TV was invited to come.

This was Chen Mo's first official interview since Zhao Benshan was hospitalized, and Beijing TV attached great importance to it.

Normally, the interview team consists of only two or three people: a reporter, a photographer, and a sound engineer.

Six people came this time, including the director of the news center.

Everyone entered the ward and froze in place.

This…

What's going on?

Are they still the invincible master and disciple who beat Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping?

Too bad!

"Teacher Zhao's health..."

Director Zhang never expected that Zhao Benshan's condition was so serious. Wasn't there a rumor that the surgery was very successful and that he was recovering well?

What's with all those tubes all over his body? And why is his head wrapped up like a rice dumpling? And what about that faint chest rise and fall, that deathly pale face, and those dry, chapped lips?

It felt as if Teacher Zhao would pass away at any moment.

"Hello Director Zhang, hello everyone, please come and sit down. I can't leave this room, I'm afraid..."

Chen Mo pursed his lips, and his eyes immediately turned red.

The voice was extremely mournful, accompanied by a face and hair that looked like they hadn't been washed for days.

At this time, Director Chen looked extremely haggard.

Where is the high spirits of the Cannes-winning director?

"Click..."

The photographer was very careful when pressing the shutter button.

I was afraid of disturbing Teacher Zhao.

"Director Chen, we're sorry. If we had known that Teacher Zhao was like this, we would never have come to bother her."

Director Zhang apologized.

"It's alright, it's alright. My master and I are public figures, and there are some controversies. We do need to give everyone an explanation." Chen Mo's voice was hoarse, and he portrayed the feeling of helplessness yet forcing himself to stay strong perfectly. "However, today I only want to clarify the so-called behind-the-scenes manipulation of the city box office competition and do not want to get involved in other issues."

This refers to the conflict between Benshan Media and New Pictures.

"I understand."

Director Zhang nodded. "The master and apprentice are already like this; no one can force them."

"Director Chen, audiences in Beijing have expressed concerns about the box office figures in major cities, with some even claiming it's rigged. Can you provide an explanation?"

The reporter began the process of asking questions.

"There's absolutely no shady dealings, how could there be any shady dealings?" Chen Mo was very surprised, followed by a wronged expression of being misunderstood. "Sigh, Beijing's box office has always been number one, there's no dispute about that. I never said that Guangzhou's box office surpassed Beijing's."

"Director Chen certainly didn't say that, but the rules of 'Project Gutenberg: City Showdown' are clearly written: the city with the highest cumulative box office for three days will receive an exclusive city song from Benshan Media. We can't say one thing and do another, can we?"

"That's natural." Chen Mo nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, "However, Beijing is the capital, and the audience is highly educated and has high expectations for art. I can't just write a song to fool everyone, can I? I need enough time to prepare to avoid disappointing the audience. I don't think I'm wrong."

Give a beating and then a sweet treat.

I, Chen Mo, acknowledge the high quality and artistic appreciation of the audience in Beijing. I must infuse every word, sentence, and even every punctuation mark with artistic flair to satisfy everyone's refined taste.

"Pfft...cough..."

Zhao Benshan almost burst out laughing.

Chen Mo quickly reached out his wicked hand and pinched his old mentor's waist.

Old man!

How dare you!

"I see. Director Chen's explanation clears up the misunderstanding."

The reporter is also a native of Beijing.

I found your words very helpful.

Who doesn't like to be praised?

People say you have good manners and a high level of art appreciation, and you still dare to curse them?

You can't hit someone who's smiling!

Moreover, Director Chen almost lost his teacher; imagine the immense psychological pressure he must have been under while creating this work.

Can't you have a little compassion?

The reporter asked a few more trivial questions, and the interview ended there.

The next day.

Beijing TV broadcast three reports in a row.

We all owe Director Chen an apology.

Despite Teacher Zhao's critical condition, Director Chen continued creating.

[Director Chen's authoritative certification: Highly cultured and art-savvy Beijing residents]

China Film Group.

After reading the report, Han Shanping shook his head and chuckled.

"This kid is a real schemer. I want to keep you hanging on, and you'll be happy to keep me hanging on. Moreover, I can use this as an excuse to keep you hanging for a long time. Hehe... Old Zhao is really going all out. If I hadn't seen him a few days ago, I would have thought he was going to meet the King of Hell."

"I told you, Lao Han, you can trust Xiao Mo. He has plenty of backup plans. You'd better watch out for your 'The Founding of a Republic.' Although 'The Message' couldn't withstand the pressure and was pulled from theaters, I heard that many cities have already started mobilizing students and civil servants to watch 'Project Gutenberg.' Two songs have made two cities popular. Who wouldn't be envious?"

"I have my own plans."

"You look a lot like Xiao Mo."

"roll!"
