A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 226 The relationship was announced within the crew

He didn't understand what trending searches could be related to him, as he was not a popular star or a hot topic.

Moreover, the hot searches are not for his benefit. To get on the list, one must carefully control his appearance, be able to manage his image, be willing to spend money on hype, and understand how to purify the fan circle.

A certain artist can be on the hot search list more than 180 times a year, while the deceased hero of China's two atomic bombs does not deserve a position on the hot search list. If entertainment stars are said to be ignorant, does that mean that a certain person is also ignorant? Haha, it's just business.

So Chen Jinnian didn't believe what Lin Miaomiao said at all, thinking that she was here to make fun of him again.

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Lin Miaomiao directly put the phone screen in front of his face and pointed at the screen with her finger, "Aren't you really you in here? I can't be wrong."

After a careful browse, Chen Jinnian finally understood what trending search he was on. He rolled his eyes at Lin Miaomiao, who was standing there. "Isn't this the trending search for the Poetry Competition? And it's about the part where I was defeated while defending the title. Thank you so much for letting me relive that experience."

He had nothing to say about losing to Cheng Mengyu. It was indeed a gap in strength, but it was a bit too much for Lin Miaomiao to run up to him and use her ultimate skill right next to him.

"How can it have nothing to do with you? The show just finished airing at 9:30 pm and everyone's already started shipping you two. They're all talking about the way you look at each other. It's so sexy it's almost tearing me apart."

Lin Miaomiao was still talking crazily, completely unaware that the real person, Wang Yidi, had appeared behind her.

"Also, why don't you have a Weibo account? I can't even @ you right now. Don't you usually check trending searches?"

"Look, I only look at those who have been exposed to dark history, those who are suspected of having collapsed, and those who may have violated the law, to prevent these people from appearing in my play." Chen Jinnian said as he continued to edit the film.

These are the things that directors fear the most. They work hard for several months to complete the production, but in the end, the actors fail and the whole show is ruined.

He himself had heard of a director who had worked hard for ten years to shoot a drama, but in the end, none of the dramas were broadcast.

After ten years in the entertainment industry, he is still an amateur when he returns. You say he is shooting blindly, but every drama of his is invested by someone. You say he is not shooting blindly, but he can accurately step on the problematic actors every time.

"What's the name of the girl opposite?" Lin Miaomiao continued to ask.

Chen Jinnian was too lazy to pay attention to her, but a cold voice came from behind them, "Cheng Mengyu."

Lin Miaomiao and Chen Jinnian stopped what they were doing at the same time and turned back, but saw Wang Yidi with an expressionless face and Deng Xiaoqi with a terrified face standing behind them.

"I remembered I still have some midnight snacks left. I'll be leaving now."

Lin Miaomiao, the instigator, realized that she had made a mess, made up an excuse full of loopholes, and slipped away from Chen Jinnian's room in embarrassment.

When Deng Xiaoqi saw this scene, she smiled bitterly and followed him out quickly.

Chen Jinnian's Adam's apple slid slightly and he swallowed his saliva. He almost hated Lin Miaomiao to death. She really didn't care about burying her but killing her. Why did she come to him for no reason? He must teach her a lesson during the filming tomorrow.

"You have a stringy look in your eyes, don't you?"

"How is that possible? Don't listen to Lin Miaomiao's nonsense."

"It was recorded on the day of the Little New Year, right?"

"Ah, this, yes."

"You dare to admit it? You were so late that night because you were recording a show. Do you know how long I waited for you in the hall?" Wang Yidi pouted, and her face was full of unhappiness.

Chen Jinnian's scalp tingled when he heard this, and only one voice in his mind said, "Oh no, this woman is going to bring up old grudges."

He and Wang Yidi have known each other for a long time. They have been talking about the past since Chinese New Year's Eve, and who knows when it will come back to haunt them. So he quickly took off the headphones from his neck, stood up and hugged her.

Wang Yidi twisted her body twice, still acting like a little girl, with a cold look in her eyes as if she wanted to kill him with a knife.

But when she was hugged tightly, she immediately became gentle again, put her arms around his waist, slowly raised her chin, and looked at him with her head held high.

Chen Jinnian naturally knew what the other party wanted. After the New Year, he had been suffering from a cold and low-grade fever. After he recovered, Wang Qing also flew back to accompany her daughter for the art exam. Then she seamlessly joined the group and was busy dealing with various things all day long.

It felt like ages ago since the last time they were together.

Without a second's hesitation, Chen Jinnian lowered his head and attacked directly, and Wang Yidi also tried his best to stand on tiptoe to meet him.

But both of them forgot one thing: the door was still open.

As expected, something unexpected happened. Yu Qian came over with the script in his hand, and before he even entered the room, he shouted, "Jinnian, I want to discuss something with you. Can this scene be played tomorrow..."

After entering the room, he looked up and saw the couple who were about to enter the main topic. Even this veteran was stunned, but his years of theater performance made him react instantly. He quickly said, "You guys continue, I walked into the wrong room."

Yu Qian turned around and walked back, closing the door behind him.

He stood at the door and sighed, "It's better to be young. Now that I'm old, I can't help but accept it." He touched his old waist and went back to where he came from.

Wang Yidi and Chen Jinnian in the room were both a little embarrassed and were looking at each other.

"Why don't you close the door?"

"I forgot, but the door is closed now, why don't we... continue."

"Ah, that's a bit embarrassing."

"What are you afraid of? Come on, hurry up and find some time. I have to go talk about the play later."

"Ok."

……

After that, the filming went on as usual, and everyone in the crew was aware of their relationship, but few were optimistic about their future.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after the collapse of the satellite TV fundamentals, domestic entertainment will have to rely entirely on platforms and fan traffic. This is the only way for these artists born in the 90s and 95s to please their fans.

Announcing a relationship is almost equivalent to the end of an artist's career nowadays. Fans in the fan circle can support the CPs in the drama, but they will not allow artists to have real CPs. Once a relationship appears, they will face backlash from fans of only one artist and professional fans.

Unless you don't care about your ranking and business, endure low pay and be a small actor, and don't make a living by relying on traffic.

But this is almost impossible, because acting contracts are only given to popular artists with many fans and good data, and acting skills are not taken into consideration.

This rumor also reached Chen Jinnian's ears. He completely dismissed it. If there was no film offer, why not just send one to himself? It was no big deal. And he still had time to discuss these trivial things. He was really too idle.

So, he first raised the daily wages of all the crew members and extras, and then split the original two crews, one main and one deputy, into three groups to shoot simultaneously. Each executive director led a group, and he ran around the three groups every day.

This kind of full-fire work mode made Wu Jing, who came to visit the set later, call it abnormal. Apart from the Hong Kong Island crew who did this back then, he hasn't seen anyone rushing to film in such a hurry for many years.
