The good news that Jiang Mochen won the award quickly became a hot search topic. Weibo marketing accounts rushed to repost it. Forum posts came one after another. Little House sisters were happy. Forums and Weibo drew prizes one after another, vowing to let the whole world know that their brother won another award.
As Jiang Mochen won the award, “Lost” was officially announced to be released on July 15. The actors of “Lost” cooperated by retweeting the official announcement on Weibo. In addition to promoting the film, they also congratulated Jiang Mochen for winning the award again.
The release date of “Lost” meant not only that the film was about to be released, but also that a press conference was about to be held and the actors were about to start a roadshow. Jiang Mochen just went home to celebrate winning the award with Yan Qingchi, and then left home again to attend press conferences and road shows across the country.
Yan Qingchi was unable to attend because of his pregnancy, so he recorded a video for the crew. On the one hand, he expressed his apology for being unable to attend the press conference and road show due to physical reasons, and on the other hand, he wished “Lost” a great box office success.
Fans were relieved when they saw that he finally showed up. Although it was just a video, it greatly inspired them to call passionately. They were determined to give their little brother a voice and let more people see his value.
So, Sister Oats started to buy tickets like crazy, and kept selling pyramid scheme, “Friend, have you bought the tickets? If you bought the tickets for “Lost”, then we are still good friends.”
“If you don’t buy it, and I don’t buy it, no one will care about the value of Qingchi. With your vote and my vote, Qingchi will be better in the future.”
Yan Qingchi originally thought that he would lose some fans since he didn’t show up for the past six months, but he didn’t expect that this would make his fans even more enthusiastic. Wei Lan, a veteran in the entertainment industry, explained to him, “This is the legendary abuse of fans. Your front foot has just become famous, and your back foot has been suspended. Your fans don’t know the reason, so they can only guess that the company has a conflict with you, so they are oppressing you. If they think about it this way, how can they dare to leave? They are afraid that if they leave, you will not even have the last bit of support. There was a post that ranked the top ten illusions of fans. One of them was: He only has me, how can I leave him!”
“You know so much.” Yan Qingchi sighed.
“That’s right, I have been in this industry for a few years at least.”
Wei Lan said while forwarding Yan Qingchi’s Weibo: Let me just say he is fine. See you on “Lost” on July 15th. San~
Sister Oats came over soon after hearing the news and thanked him for refuting the rumors and supporting their idol. They were really grateful to Wei Lan, not only because when Yuan Mingxu made insinuations and framed Yan Qingchi, Wei Lan directly went out and bombarded him, but also because when rumors were circulating a few days ago, Wei Lan directly posted a Weibo post to refute the rumors.
Wei Lan’s Weibo was very simple: I visited a forum when I had nothing to do. It really costs nothing to spread rumors. Yan Qingchi and Nancheng are fine. There are no problems, no conflicts, and he has not offended anyone. He has not been active for half a year. It is really just a matter of physical health. Not feeling well, recuperating. Nancheng is not a juicer that vows to squeeze out all the value of its artists. If you have this time to spread rumors, you might as well read two more books and go to school.
Wei Lan’s Weibo post was like a stabbing needle, instantly killing those who tried to spread rumors. Everyone knew that he had a bad temper, and it was common for him to get into fights, and his sister fans had been a famous professional calf protector for thirty years. No matter whether what he said was right or not, no one was allowed to speak ill of their brother.
Now, if they wanted to spread rumors that Yan Qingchi had offended Nancheng, they couldn’t avoid Wei Lan’s Weibo. However, no one dared to say that Wei Lan’s Weibo was nonsense. After all, they would be torn apart. Forget it, it’s not worth it if it involves your own idol. So Yan Qingchi’s opponents stopped one by one, preparing to disappear for a while, change directions, and come back again.
Guan Mei felt bitter. She had said it eight hundred times. Nancheng had no intention of hiding Yan Qingchi in the snow. Yan Qingchi was just resting because he was not feeling well. Why did no one listen to her words? As soon as Wei Lan said it, everyone believed it. Alas, as expected, the four words “brokerage company” were the original sin.
Although Yan Qingchi did not attend the press conference of “Lost”, reporters asked many questions about him, and they all focused on Jiang Mochen, who was in the same company as Yan Qingchi.
After congratulating Jiang Mochen for winning another award, the reporter asked: “At this press conference, Yan Qingchi, who plays Meng Luo, did not attend. I heard it was because of some conflicts with the company, is that right?”
Jiang Mochen said warmly: “It’s just a rumor, Qingchi is just not feeling well, and the company has suspended his activities this year for the sake of his health. However, as everyone knows, he is an artist with great potential. I heard that the company is already making arrangements for his activities next year. Just wait for him to recover and start again.” After he finished speaking, he added, “Of course, he is also an actor that I personally admire, and I also look forward to him bringing better works to everyone next year. Everyone has more possibilities to see him.”
Jiang Mochen’s words not only dispelled the rumors once again, but also gave Yan Qingchi’s fans a reassurance. After all, his status was there, and he was from Nancheng. So even though fans didn’t know what kind of illness their Brother Yan Qingchi was suffering from, they also believed that when he recovered, he would return to the entertainment industry and start his journey of glory again. As long as they worked together to get through this difficult time, it would be fine.
And this period of time was actually not very difficult, because good works could always bring more fans. As Jiang Mochen said to Yan Qingchi before, although Meng Luo didn’t have many scenes, he had a reversal setting, as well as the beautiful, strong and tragic character setting, which indeed successfully caught the eyes of film critics and audiences when “Lost” was screened.
Film critics lamented: In a limited number of scenes, he successfully completed the transformation of two personalities, from being quiet and introverted and unattractive to being arrogant and world-weary, solitary and self-admiring. Yan Qingchi used his own performance to add the most excitement to this movie.
The audience was even more direct than the film critics: Within five minutes, I want all the information on Meng Luo!
The screening of “Lost” officially kicked off the competition for the summer movie box office. It had a wonderful plot, full of characters, and a conflicting storyline. The battle of wits and courage between He Yu and Zhou Fang, along with Meng Luo’s mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole. After that, there were two different styles of love in the middle. Not long after the screening started, word-of-mouth exploded, and the number of moviegoers skyrocketed.
Yan Qingchi looked at the discussion about Meng Luo on the forum and Weibo, thinking that it was much more prosperous than he expected.
As Jiang Mochen said, Meng Luo’s death instantly sublimated the audience’s feelings for him. Everyone couldn’t help but lament that he was actually a victim. If he could have grown up in a normal family, then he would definitely not do such a thing.
The scene where Meng Luo turned his back to He Yu and unbuttoned his shirt to reveal his back caused countless girls to scream. The star-chasing girls lamented what a perfect figure this is, this back, this butterfly bone, mother, I will never eat meat this month again! While shouting, hug Meng Luo, it hurts so much.
Just because of this scene, fans of He Yu x Meng Luo were created. CP fans kept feeling sorry, if only Meng Luo could have met He Yu earlier, maybe He Yu could rescue him from the quagmire. He Yu obviously felt pity for Meng Luo.
The CP group of Chengchi, which had been silent for a long time, finally became agitated and started to fight against the CP pair of He Yu x Meng Luo. Videos, fanfics, and CP pictures were continuously produced for a while, and new fans joined the trap one after another, joining the old fans. While replenishing food, they let out a prairie dog scream.
There was no doubt that Yan Qingchi had become famous again and ushered in the second peak of his career.
It was at this time that Guan Mei received invitation from “Let’s Fight! Friend!” for its new season. The program team was very sincere and the quotation they gave was very generous. Guan Mei looked at the string of zeros following the numbers on the quotation sheet and sighed with emotion. At this time a year ago, when Yan Qingchi wanted to be on “Let’s Fight! Friend!”, not only did the price need to be lowered, but Jiang Mochen also needed to be tied up to get the program team to agree. Today, one year later, Yan Qingchi was able to rely on his own value to get the program team to give such a figure.
But Yan Qingchi had told her before, “Let’s fight!” friend!” this variety show, he was a temporary fill-in, so he would not participate in the recording of the new season. What’s more, he was still not taking part in activities, so Guan Mei politely refused on the grounds of physical discomfort.
Although the program team of “Let’s fight! Friend!” was very sorry, they had also heard that Yan Qingchi was in poor health, so he had been recuperating and had not participated in any activities for half a year. Therefore, it was just a matter of regret, and there were no other complaints. After all, no one can do anything about objective factors.
In addition to “Lost” and “Let’s Fight! Friend!, To Mr. Q’s first painting book was finally officially released in late July.
After the previous plagiarism incident of Luo Yan, To Mr. Q became famous and attracted a lot of fans. Although Luo Yan continued to pretend to be dead at the beginning and did not stand up to publicly apologize, while even leading fans to tear up To Mr. Q, she was just a little pink who drew hand circles, how could she outperform a professional in the entertainment industry like Guan Mei? Soon, all of Luo Yan’s dark history was uncovered, and the studio that had commercial cooperation with her issued a public statement stating that they would never use Luo Yan’s drawings in the future and hoped that everyone would actively supervise and restore originality to a pure land.
Many of Luo Yan’s fans also turned negative after watching her Dark History, saying that not backing down was the greatest kindness. They hoped Luo Yan could learn a lesson, be a good person, and draw well.
Luo Yan couldn’t bear the pressure, so she admitted that she “learned” from To Mr. Q and was willing to apologize.
However, this sentence of “learning” did not calm the anger of fans but made them even more angry. Plagiarism was plagiarism. When you talk about learning, who allowed you to learn from it?
In desperation, Luo Yan posted a second apology on Weibo. Since then, her reputation in the painter circle had been ruined and she had become a joke in the circle.
In this plagiarism battle, To Mr. Q almost won a crushing victory. Many people in the painting circle got to know him because of this. It was only because Yan Qingchi did not return or chat privately that he did not really enter this circle. However, this did not prevent him from being very popular in this circle. As soon as the album came out, fans rushed to tell each other. Within a few days, the first batch of the album was sold out and needed to be reprinted.
Yan Qingchi expressed his gratitude to the fans on Weibo, and the fans said: No, big brother, your paintings are very good. Both adults and children like it! I hope you will continue to work hard!
