Chapter 376： Just a little ambitious

Chapter 376 is just a bit ambitious

According to the original plan, after the premiere of "Late Spring" was over, Lu Yanhe was about to prepare to return to China.

However, the feedback received after the screening of "Late Spring" led many media to list the film as a favorite to win the award.

Many film media even directly stated that "Late Spring" will definitely win an award, it just depends on what award it wins.

Such a trend has made Longyan Pictures and the crew of "Late Spring" very excited.

If this can win a prize, then the meaning will be different.

 Just look at the current status and treatment of "Three Mountains" and director Wang Zhong in China.

The value and significance of the international awards are self-evident.

-

Chen Ziyan and Lu Yanhe analyzed: "In several forecasting agencies, you are currently ranked in the first echelon of best actor candidates at this Venice International Film Festival. The closing ceremony is three days away. If you really receive the notice, you will be invited to come back. You may not be able to make it in time to attend the closing ceremony.”

Lu Yanhe showed a bewildered expression, "Sister Ziyan, do you think I can win the Best Actor Award?"

Chen Ziyan: "Although I think there is little hope, I still have to have dreams. What if?"

This time Lu Yanhe's performance in "Late Spring" has indeed received great praise.

Lu Yanhe:? Didn't you tell me earlier? I'm already downstairs! I am a wounded person!

Li Zhibai: Forgot.

“Some media say that you have a great chance of winning the Best Actor award. Why don’t you save it until the closing ceremony?”

Lu Yanhe looked very relaxed in this state, and he didn't look like he was returning in frustration.

"In this case, if "Late Spring" wins the award, wouldn't you be able to witness the scene?"

Li Zhibai: I just walked in.

The reporters looked at each other in disbelief at Lu Yanhe’s joke, and then burst into laughter.

Lu Yanhe finally returned to China.

“So it’s now confirmed that “Late Spring” will win the award?” a reporter immediately asked.

However, to say that he is the top seed player, he is not.

Lu Yanhe: Front and rear feet.

“Are you not confident about winning the prize?”

Lu Yanhe was very tight-lipped, which frustrated the reporters.

Lu Yanhe’s return to China surprised some media.

It’s just discussions and predictions in various media.

After Lu Yanhe came to Venice, he also went to see "White Pearl".

How could there be any news? The jury may not have finalized a list at this time.

Lu Yanhe shook his head, "I want to get on the podium. When I really hope to win the award, I will definitely sit under the stage and wait for that moment seriously."

Lu Yanhe laughed.

"Yan He, why are you back? They say "Late Spring" has a good chance of winning the award, right?"

Then why did you come back so early?

Lu Yanhe looked at everyone's eager eyes, smiled, and said: "I have to rush back to class. I have already asked for a few days of leave from the school, and I can't ask for more. Director Liu Bige and the others are still in Venice."

At least this is the case in the lists predicted by many forecasting agencies and media.

Their turbulent momentum made Lu Yanhe couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't forget that I am an injured person. If you are too enthusiastic, don't blame me for lying on the ground touching porcelain."

After finally dealing with the media, Lu Yanhe finally got in the car and prepared to go back.

Yan Liang: I’m still on the way.

Arrived at Ziyuan Bridge, Lu Yanhe sent a message to the crowd of three people: I have arrived.

…

"It doesn't matter, I will watch the live broadcast." Lu Yanhe said, "Besides, I believe that the movie "Late Spring" will win many awards. This is just the beginning."

"Sister Ziyan, my work in Venice has ended. I've forgotten about the Best Actor issue. It's probably out of the question." Lu Yanhe said, "I'll rush back to class. Liu Bige and the others are all here. By then the movie They won the award, they attended, and someone received the award.”

Lu Yanhe is ranked behind them.

Chen Ziyan said: "It's not like the Venice International Film Festival has never prescribed double-yolk eggs or triple-yolk eggs, although every time such a result is given, people will scold it."

Chen Ziyan stayed in Venice and accompanied Huang Zhongjing and others.

He didn't like this movie very much, but Chen Pinghe's performance was superb and wonderful. In the first part, he was a simple, loyal, and gentle man. In the second part, he was slowly taken over by greed and wanted to embezzle the family's property. In the end, he even To kill someone, the transformation of the entire process is calm and gradual, with full control.

Lu Yanhe has not watched the movie starring Rubeus Hals, but according to the media, it is also an outstanding performance.

Due to health problems, Lu Yanhe did not live at school these days, and was all picked up and dropped off by Zou Dong.

Comparatively speaking, Rubeus Hals from the UK and Chen Pinghe from "White Pearl" are the two most popular talents this time.

“I’m not a judge, how do I know?” Lu Yanhe shook his head, “Didn’t you ask me if I would win the prize?”

Actually, there is really no news about Lu Yanhe.

This play gave him a lot of performance space, and critics also praised it highly.

Lu Yanhe was surrounded by a large group of reporters at the airport.

Li Zhibai: You might as well go get something for me first, if you haven’t gotten out of the car yet.

Chen Ziyan: "Don't you want to stand on the awards podium? If your film wins an award, you will be recognized by everyone."

Lu Yanhe: Let Yan Liang go get it. He is still on the way anyway.

Li Zhibai: @遬梁.

Yan Liang: Already offline, please do not disturb.

Yan Liang: I just got off the high-speed rail. It still takes more than an hour to get here.

Li Zhibai: Damn.

Lu Yanhe: What is it? If you don’t want to get it yourself, let me get it.

Li Zhibai: Didn’t you forget it? It arrived in a few minutes.

Lu Yanhe: Okay, okay, you send me the address and I’ll go.

Li Zhibai immediately sent over an address.

Lu Yanhe sent the address to Zou Dong and said, "Brother Dong, I have to ask you to take me here. I want to help Li Zhibai get something."

Zou Dong nodded and said yes.

Lu Yanhe asked in the group again: What did you ask me to get?

Li Zhibai: A friend brought it to me. You were not there at the time, so I asked him to put it for me in the Shanju Guild Hall next to it.

 Shanju Club is the most upscale club in Ziyuanqiao.

Li Zhibai is a frequent visitor there.

They would definitely be willing to let Li Zhibai take over.

At the door, Zou Dong said, "I'll get it."

Lu Yanhe: "It's okay, I'll go. They may not be happy to give it to you if you go, and you have to call Li Zhibai to confirm your identity. It's not like I can't leave, I'll just go slower."

Zou Dong nodded and accompanied Lu Yanhe.

At this point, there seemed to be no one in the Shanju Guild Hall.

Zou Dong opened the door and Lu Yanhe walked in.

“Bah—ba—” Suddenly several gunshot-like explosions sounded.

Before Lu Yanhe could react, he was pulled behind him by Zou Dong and hid outside the door.

Lu Yanhe's wound, which was already almost healed, was suddenly torn open, causing him to turn pale in pain.

The next second, Zou Dong's still serious face suddenly became dull.

Colorful small pieces of paper and notes fell from the air, and many people rushed out from behind the walls on both sides of the door.

"Happy birthday!"

The leaders were Li Zhibai and Yan Liang.

As a result, after a group of people rushed out happily, they saw Lu Yanhe's face was full of pain, his facial features were distorted, and his face turned pale.

…”

-

Lu Yanhe really forgot that today is his birthday.

In the blink of an eye, it has been three years since he came to this world.

He always remembers the birthday before he traveled through time, not the current one.

He finally regained his composure, took two breaths, and looked at the large group of people who appeared in front of him.

Li Zhibai, Yan Liang, Peng Zhixing, Song Linxin, Liu Zhiyin, Qin Zhibai…

Chen Siqi, Li Pengfei, Chen Qin…

Mao Jiayang, Xiao Jing, Zhou Mukai, Wang Xiao…

Lu Yanhe smiled and shook his head and said, "What kind of surprise are you planning? The surprise almost turned into an accident."

Zou Dong looked embarrassed and apologized to Lu Yanhe, saying, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake."

Lu Yanhe: "Brother Dong, you reacted so quickly. I have to thank you. If you want to blame, I blame these people for scaring me."

Li Zhibai and others did not expect that the surprise they had prepared would lead to such a result.

Zou Dong, the bodyguard, was so professional that when he heard the sound of two salutes, he mistakenly thought that someone was shooting at Lu Yanhe. Of course, thinking about it afterwards, this was even more nonsense, but at that moment, Lu Yanhe did not react.

“Have you recovered? Do you want to go to the hospital?” Yan Liang asked.

Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "I'm over that period of time. It's much better."

-

Li Zhibai booked the Shanju Guild Hall today, held a small party, and invited all Lu Yanhe's friends and classmates.

As expected, the courtyard inside the Shanju Guild Hall was fully decorated, with a buffet and a band playing live.

The last time she celebrated her birthday, it was Chen Ziyan who organized a large party. This time, she celebrated her birthday with someone completely familiar to Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe did not expect that Li Zhibai and even Wang Xiao would be called.

Li Zhibai has dealt with Mao Jiayang and others, but Wang Xiao really doesn't know them.

Chen Siqi whispered in Lu Yanhe's ear: "He showed me the list specifically to avoid missing anyone."

Lu Yanhe thought, no wonder.

Li Zhibai and Yan Liang organized this party and prepared this surprise for Lu Yanhe, which took almost a week.

It is necessary to book the venue, prepare for dining drinks, and contact people to confirm the time. In this case, you have to hide the landing rivers in this case.

Li Pengfei hooked Lu Yanhe's shoulder and asked, "Your neck isn't injured, right? Can it be hooked?"

“You’ve checked all the boxes, don’t you feel guilty if you ask this question again?”

Li Pengfei chuckled and said, "Didn't I suddenly remember it because I was hooked?"

Lu Yanhe asked: “What are you doing recently?”

Li Pengfei: “I go hiking in the mountains with people everywhere, embrace nature, and live in harmony with nature.”

Lu Yanhe: “I’m envious. I can completely put myself into nature.”

Li Pengfei: "Whenever you have time, I will take you there."

Lu Yanhe: "Okay, how long does it usually take?"

"It can take two or three days, or it can be as long as ten days and a month and a half." Li Pengfei said, "Take your time. If you have never done similar activities before, start with simple and basic ones." ”

Lu Yanhe nodded and said yes.

Lu Yanhe said: "But I will definitely not be able to do it in the past two or three months."

“The injury you suffered hasn’t healed after so long? Doesn’t it mean there is no fracture?”

"There is no fracture, but it is still very seriously injured. I don't know where the little toe of my foot was pinned, and there is a bone fracture." Lu Yanhe explained, "The injury on my thigh is not fully healed yet."

Li Pengfei frowned when he heard this.

“Why is it so serious?”

Lu Yanhe: “It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s a miracle that there are no fractures.”

Li Pengfei: "We haven't even filmed an action scene yet, and you are injured like this. When you film an action scene in the future, you are not allowed to go to the hospital directly?"

Lu Yanhe: “Bah!”

Lu Yanhe thought for a while and then said: "However, with my body, what kind of action scenes can I do?"

Li Pengfei: "You have been learning horse riding and archery in the past few years. I thought you just wanted to make martial arts movies."

Lu Yanhe: “I want to shoot, but I don’t have the ability.”

"Lian Bei, do you think that every actor who makes a martial arts film is a practitioner?" Li Pengfei said, "Aren't they all trained." Lu Yanhe looked at him sideways, "You make it easy."

Li Pengfei: "I'm not an actor, so of course I speak easily."

Lu Yanhe: “…”

There is nothing to say.

-

"The ending theme you sang for "Late Spring" is very nice." Lu Yanhe said to Song Linxin, "Did you write it yourself?"

"Yes." Song Linxin nodded, "I was surprised when the director found me and asked me to sing."

“Why are you surprised?”

“Obviously you can write songs, why did you find me to write them?” Song Linxin said.

"I think you are more suitable. He has never told me about the invitation to sing." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.

Liu Bige is obviously not interested in the songs he wrote before and prefers Song Linxin's style.

He is such a person who always only wants the most suitable.

Song Linxin said: "We were all waiting for you to come back to record "Young Days", but it turned out that you just didn't come."

"I can't help it. I'm so inconvenient that I can't participate in your activities. Why are you here, to be a mascot?" Lu Yanhe said, "I will come in the last episode. I promised Director Zhenzhen, let's come together. Recording the end of this season with everyone.”

Song Linxin said: "Really? Why did she tell us that you won't participate in the recording of subsequent programs? Uh-"

Song Linxin suddenly reacted, "She also wants to create a surprise for us, right?"

Lu Yanhe also came to his senses.

"Well."

Song Linxin: "What kind of surprise can this create? Don't Li Zhibai and Yan Liang know whether you are coming or not?"

Lu Yanhe thought for a while and said, "I haven't told them yet."

Song Linxin: “Then I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear it.”

The two people looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

-

Song Linxin has sung several film and television drama OSTs in the past six months. In the film and television drama OST market, she has a vague tendency to rush for the throne.

Compared to her, Liu Zhiyin and Qin Zhibai are more focused on music variety performances and music festival performances such as "Idol Era".

I don’t know how the wind blows. Now music festivals are springing up all over the country, and singers suddenly have more stages.

Li Zhibai and Yan Liang have received many invitations to perform at music festivals during this period.

The same goes for Lu Yanhe, but because he was filming and injured, he couldn't accept the invitation.

Almost every music festival wants to reproduce the classic program where the three of them share the stage. However, it is too difficult to get the schedules of the three of them together. Moreover, it will take a long time to put the three of them together on the same stage. The money is not a small amount, and it is not something that ordinary music festivals can afford.

Liu Zhiyin talked with Lu Yanhe about her troubles.

"I'm a little unsure about the positioning and style." She said, "When I was in the girl group, I mainly focused on dance music or K-POP, but this type of music is not particularly popular in China, but I don't do this , what I am best at is gone. I have changed it several times, trying to find a style that suits me best, but so far, I haven’t received particularly good feedback.”

Lu Yanhe said: "Sister Zhiyin, I think your current performance stage is mainly based on "Idol Era" and music festivals. On the "Idol Era" program, you can use the K-POP stage that you are best at as your main stage. Lord, I occasionally put out one or two songs to try innovative or other styles of performances to see how everyone responds. At music festivals, in fact, from my understanding, the audience attending music festivals will be more tolerant. You can do this in this Make bolder innovations and attempts on stage, and don’t worry about disappointing them. Just tell them openly that you want to try a new style, and tell them that they are the first audience. Their tolerance is much higher than that of the general audience. . Mainly depends on everyone’s feedback. Of course, I think Sister Zhiyin, you can try any style. Your stage ability is very strong. I have seen you on many stages and I like almost every one of them.”

Liu Zhiyin looked at him in surprise, "Ah? Have you seen many of my stages?"

"Well, I am a loyal viewer of "Idol Era", and I also like listening to music. I listen to many music genres and new music." Lu Yanhe said, "I know you are now in "Idol Era" This program is very popular and ranks in the first echelon.”

This program is perfect for Ryu Ji-yin, who has experience in girl groups.

Her accumulated stage skills were fully unleashed in this show.

Lu Yanhe added: "I think the most important thing for you, Sister Zhiyin, now is to break the circle and let people who don't pay attention to K-POP music also see your stage. You can go to more places where you don't usually appear and sing, so that people who don't pay attention to K-POP music can see your stage." More people know you.”

Liu Zhiyin said with a smile: "I have been planning this. Last month I participated in a CCTV charity program and sang for children in mountainous areas."

Lu Yanhe: “I saw that video, and I’ve never seen you sing such a cute and gentle children’s song.”

To be honest, Liu Zhiyin’s voice condition is better than Lu Yanhe’s.

The recognition and thickness of her singing voice are superior to Lu Yanhe's.

Liu Zhiyin: "Your current vision and judgment are completely beyond my imagination. Yan He, how come you have such a keen vision at such a young age?"

Lu Yanhe smiled, "No, I just watch a lot, see a lot, listen a lot, and imitate parrots."

Liu Zhiyin: "If a parrot can have such an opinion, I will quickly learn it."

She smiled and looked at Lu Yanhe, "I'm very happy to see that your new film was so popular at the Venice Film Festival. I don't know if I've told you that, really, since I debuted, it's been difficult for me to compete with other people. Artists become friends, but in the program "Young Days", I met a bunch of nice people like you, and I didn't stop contacting you just because the program was over. I don't know how many times I met people like this before. With you, I don’t have to worry about being stabbed in the back, nor do I have to worry about other things. On the contrary, you all sincerely help me gain a foothold in China. I was really touched that I rarely cared about other people’s achievements before. I’m happy from the bottom of my heart, but your results make me feel that way.”

Lu Yanhe also looked at Liu Zhiyin with a smile and said, "Sister Zhiyin, you are a very good person yourself. You couldn't be a kind person before because the people around you didn't show kindness to you, and we are not kind to you." By releasing kindness, you break down your defenses.”

Liu Zhiyin smiled happily and said, "Okay, I accept your compliment. I also think I am a very good person."

“You will definitely become the top female idol in our country.” Lu Yanhe said, “I believe in you.”

Liu Zhiyin: “OK, I’ll work hard!”

She made a cheering gesture to herself.

-

Lu Yanhe’s birthday party is private in nature.

So many people came, but in the end not a single photo was posted on the Internet.

Lu Yanhe was particularly happy.

This shows that his group of friends are really very reliable friends.

However, although everyone did not say it, Lu Yanhe himself wanted to say it.

This was a moment of surprise and joy for him, and he wanted to share it.

Therefore, he finally posted the group photo on his social platform and said: "I rushed back from Venice because tomorrow is a day of classes, and I forgot that today is my 21st birthday. Fortunately, in my life, , maybe you will forget the important day, but your friends will not be a huge surprise and touch!"

In the group photo, Lu Yanhe stood next to a three-layer cake, closing his eyes and making a wish.

Everyone stood beside him and looked at him with smiling faces.

Lu Yanhe made three wishes at that time: first, that he and the people around him would be in good health and good luck; second, that all his efforts would be rewarded and his hard work would be fruitful; and third, that there would be world peace.

Three wishes were made in the heart but not expressed.

No one told anyone.

-

The next day, Lu Yanhe went back to school.

The classmates in the class showed surprised expressions when they saw him. Many people did not expect that he actually left the Venice International Film Festival and came back to class.

You know, even Miao Yue hasn’t come back yet.

Although Lu Yanhe has been working very hard to maintain a good relationship with his classmates, it seems that hard work can always backfire.

Except for a few of them, Lu Yanhe’s relationship with most of his classmates was ordinary, nothing special.

Of course, this is actually normal.

Few people can really maintain a good relationship with everyone.

Lu Yanhe finished the class seriously. After class, because he was too lazy to bother, he planned to stay in the classroom to study by himself and wait for class in the afternoon.

The afternoon class is in another classroom in this building.

Zhou Mukai knew that he had difficulty moving and asked if he would bring him lunch.

Lu Yanhe said yes, just bring a little.

Zhou Mukai went to the canteen to eat by himself, and brought back a box of chicken drumstick rice for Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe ate happily.

At noon, there were only two of them left in the classroom.

 Lu Yanhe saw Zhou Mukai take out his laptop from his bag and seemed to be planning to study here for a while.

“Aren’t you going back at noon?” Lu Yanhe asked.

There are still more than two hours left in the middle. Zhou Mukai can go back to the dormitory and take a nap before coming back.

Zhou Mukai said: "It's hot and I don't want to run back and forth. I'm going back to write a paper anyway."

Lu Yanhe nodded and asked, "Are you going to graduate school?"

Zhou Mukai hesitated and shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."

He asked: "What about you?"

Lu Yanhe shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet. I actually want to go to graduate school. I have gained a lot from studying in Zhenhua over the past few years. I actually want to see what I will be like after I go to graduate school." Way of thinking. I often feel changes in my own way of thinking in college.”

Zhou Mukai nodded, "In that case, why haven't you thought about it yet?"

“Because the work of artists is very busy, if I continue to study for graduate school, a lot of work will have to be postponed indefinitely.” Lu Yanhe said, “I have a lot of things I want to do, and now I often feel that I don’t have enough time.”

Zhou Mukai nodded and said, "You are very successful in everything you do. Indeed, every aspect involves your energy."

“How do you enjoy working as an editor on Jump Up?”

"Well, it doesn't have much to do with whether I like it or not. The editing job has opened my eyes quite a lot, and I have come into contact with many people and things that I have never been exposed to before." Zhou Mukai laughed, "To put it this way, I actually like it. Except that I was a little confused at the beginning and couldn’t figure out the way, but it will be fine after I get familiar with it.”

Lu Yanhe nodded, "Jump Up has more and more business sections. I'm worried that everyone has too many things on their hands, which will lead to a decline in the quality of the magazine. Fortunately, you have joined us."

"Editor-in-Chief Chen is still very clever. Although the business section has increased, she has divided everyone's tasks. Moreover, because there is not enough manpower, she has also arranged funds to hire temporary part-time staff to handle many chores." Zhou Mukai said, "The magazine has always been the highest priority. We have nearly three to four issues of manuscripts in reserve. Moreover, the magazine is usually produced two months ahead of schedule, so the quality can still be guaranteed."

Lu Yanhe: “She has always been a very capable and resourceful person.”

“I’m sometimes surprised that it’s actually her first time to make a magazine, why she handles many things with a calmness and proficiency that has been solved many times before, and she doesn’t get scared at all,” Zhou Mukai said.

Lu Yanhe thought to himself, because Chen Siqi is such a person, she knows that she can't be afraid, she is the editor-in-chief, and she has to support it all, so in the face of big problems and difficulties, she demands that she be overwhelmed and remain calm. change.

-

Chen Siqi walked under the scorching sun holding a sun umbrella and opened the door of a cafe. A blast of cool air hit her face, making her feel refreshed.

However, the cafe next to the university always seems to be crowded.

She finally found a seat, sat down, and ordered a glass of Americano.

Lu Yanhe didn’t finish class until 5:40 in the afternoon. She decided to work here for a few hours and wait for him to come out.

Unlike Lu Yanhe, Chen Siqi has very few classes this semester. She took almost all the elective courses she needed to take in her freshman and sophomore years, and only had compulsory courses in her junior year.

So, today she happened to have a meeting with an advertiser in the morning, and came to wait for Lu Yanhe in the afternoon.

The magazine "Jump Up" experienced a small peak in sales for its summer special issue in July, but saw a relatively large decline in its August issue.

This change in data makes Chen Siqi a little worried.

· Any decline in sales data will make Chen Siqi rack his brains to figure out the reasons.

In the age of print media, there is no room for her to take it lightly.

The business of the new media segment is going smoothly.

But traditionally published journals are just sailing against the current.

  Advertisers often ask Chen Siqi to give up paper magazines, thinking that they have now built up a popular brand and can use the time of making magazines to run other business sectors, which will bring higher profits.

Chen Siqi’s smile goes in one ear and out the other.

Stop "Jump Up"?

She never considered this option.

Of course, from the perspective of capital, she understood why so many people advised her to give up.

But that’s not why she made “Jump Up” in the first place.

A magazine has been in production for more than two years. It is no longer just a business or a simple matter of original feelings.

It has become a stable publishing channel for many writers and teachers, and also provides a promising destination for young people who intend to create literary and artistic creations.

It brings together a group of people, a group of creators who have been scattered all over the country with the end of the paper media era. They are gathered together again to publish their latest works in the monthly magazine. There are short stories, essays, and miscellaneous notes.

Now, Chen Siqi often faces a problem. There are too many manuscripts and only so much space in each issue, resulting in the accumulation of more and more manuscripts.

For many manuscripts that are suitable for publication in new media, they will negotiate with the authors and publish them on new media, and the royalties will still be based on the magazine's high standards.

However, fictional creations are actually not suitable for publication in new media.

Chen Siqi has been thinking about how to solve this problem during this time.

Either increase the number of issues published each year, or increase the space of each issue.

Both options have pros and cons, and Chen Siqi has not thought clearly about it yet.

Similarly, there is another thing that Chen Siqi is planning.

She wants to promote "Jump Up" overseas.

It is definitely not realistic to reproduce every issue, but Chen Siqi thought that it could be made into a book like Mook and published overseas.

Then, make a series.

 Chen Siqi is not motivated by any commercial considerations, she simply has the ambition of a young person and wants to further expand the coverage and influence of "Jump Up".

Chen Siqi thought about it and typed out various ideas in his notebook.

The afternoon passed quickly.

The phone buzzed and vibrated twice, and Lu Yanhe sent a message: I'm out of class, where are you? -

Please give me a monthly ticket!
