Chapter 340: Mid-Autumn Eve

"Director Jiang Wen collaborates with Luo Quan!"

After being silent for a few days, Luo Quan finally made it onto the trending list again, and it was a blockbuster news as soon as it appeared.

As one of the few directors in the country who had won international film awards, although Jiang Wen had few works, the quality of each movie was quite solid. Although sometimes he was too picky about details, resulting in a lack of story, so some movies would flop at the box office.

However, the reputation had never been bad, and the evaluation was very high both at home and abroad.

No matter what list, Director Jiang Wen was a powerful director who could rank in the top ten of Huaxia directors.

And this time, the new film *Let the Bullets Fly* started full-network promotion after killing the youth. In addition to his own influence, three film emperors were on the same stage, and a group of powerful actors acted as supporting roles. The gimmick was quite sufficient.

Huaxia films hadn't seen such an actor lineup for a long time, so after the promotion started, *Let the Bullets Fly* attracted huge attention.

And the news of the cooperation between Luo Quan and Director Jiang Wen added a handful of firewood to this fire. Soon, the number of comments in the comment area exceeded 10,000:

"Is it like *Pirates of the Caribbean*, collaborating on this song?"

"It must be. It's already killed the youth, so Luo Quan can't go to film anymore."

"Looking forward to it. The quality of Luo Quan's songs is still guaranteed. *Pirates of the Caribbean* became popular because of Luo Quan's songs."

"That's because Disney is famous, although it has something to do with Luo Quan."

"By the way, Director Jiang Wen and Luo Quan, who is more famous?"

"In the country, Director Jiang Wen has fewer works and doesn't like to show up online, so his fame can't compare to Luo Quan."

"But it's hard to say internationally. Many international famous directors are friends of Director Jiang Wen, and the evaluation in foreign media is also very high. In the film, television, and music circles, the one with the highest status is film, so Director Jiang Wen's fame should be much higher than Luo Quan's."

"I don't think so. Director Jiang Wen can only be considered medium in the world film scene. He has only won one of the three major awards, and he hasn't even touched the Oscars. And Luo Quan is currently a dominant existence in the world music scene. *Wake* is now explosively popular abroad, and many pop big shots have postponed the release date of their new albums to avoid her edge."

"Director Jiang Wen hasn't won an Oscar, but do you think your Luo Quan has won a Grammy?"

"In this album *Love*, which one do you think can't win? And many songs she wrote for others before have won this year's Grammy Awards, including important awards like Grammy Best Album and Best Song!"

"Saying it to the sky, hasn't she won the award herself?"

"You only know about the Grammy. If you have time, go look at those lists made by music magazines like *Giant Rock*. Luo Quan is already comparing herself with those great gods who founded schools in the last century."

"I think those who argue about these things here are not Luo Quan's fans. She herself has clearly stated that she doesn't want fans to use her achievements to compare or argue with others."

"Whether her songs are good or bad, we are just listeners. We have no power to compare with anyone. Just listen to her works quietly."

"This is the correct answer. Some people are deliberately here to pick trouble. Luo Quan's fans shouldn't be easily led by the rhythm. She herself would never compare her status with anyone."

To be honest, Luo Quan originally wanted to come out and scold these comments that were leading the rhythm, but she didn't expect her fans to be quite quality-oriented and maintained order themselves.

It was fortunate that she had never engaged in that fan circle set after becoming popular. Although fans liked her, they wouldn't blindly worship her like others, nor would they scold people at every turn to maintain her.

This was the most ideal fan state she thought of, especially since these people were still on Weibo, which was too rare.

The comments leading the rhythm were soon squeezed to the back by the public who really cared about the movie. It was a pity that she couldn't convert all such huge popularity into her own.

The popularity was mainly due to the movie. Even if she composed the theme song, it was not good to promote herself below, so she could only cooperate with Director Jiang Wen to forward it.

However, she also knew that her main business was not just in film, at least not for now, so she wasn't particularly conflicted in her mentality.

The Shangyi Music Competition opened full-network voting, and Luo Quan and Fan Ying were competing for the title of first place, and the outcome couldn't be determined for the time being.

The new album was still in preparation, and Luo Quan already had some clues, while Ai Wei was practicing music tirelessly, preparing for her debut work.

And Luo Quan was going to class while losing weight, and her time was arranged quite abundantly.

Just like this, it passed peacefully for a few days. The second rehearsal of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala began, and Luo Quan rushed to Jingcheng immediately after receiving the news.

The content of the second rehearsal was much harder than the first. Basically, it had to be walked through completely according to the formal performance process, and if there was any problem in the middle, everyone had to stop and wait for a solution.

One rehearsal took a whole day, and in the next week, there would be three rehearsals in total!

She felt exhausted after only rehearsing for one day. Three times a week was really a bit unbearable.

But who told her this was the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala? Many artists squeezed their brains to eat this bitterness. Besides, not a single other artist complained, so no matter how tired she was, she had to hold on.

At 11:00 PM, the General Director finally announced the end of today's rehearsal. The entire auditorium was immersed in a burst of cheers and relaxed sighs.

"It's finally over." Luo Quan yawned in her seat. She had been dozing off below after singing just now, but she didn't dare to sleep. What if she fell asleep and the director happened to call her name above? Now that there were so many stars, everyone would be laughing at her.

Fortunately, she could go back to the hotel to make up for sleep immediately.

"Miss, this is your flower." A little girl popped out from nowhere, holding a large bouquet of roses to Luo Quan.

"For me?" Luo Quan was stunned. She didn't know many people in Jingcheng, and besides, who would come to send her roses late at night?

"Yes."

"Are you sure it's for me?" Luo Quan confirmed again.

The little girl nodded: "The gentleman who sent the flowers asked me to find a girl with golden hair who is especially, especially beautiful. In the whole hall, only you have golden hair and are especially, especially beautiful."

"Thank you." Luo Quan said thank you, but didn't go to take the flowers: "However, how did you get in? This studio shouldn't allow outsiders to enter, right?"

The little girl smiled shyly: "The gentleman who sent the flowers arranged for me to follow the staff in and asked me to give you the flowers when the rehearsal ended."

Luo Quan squatted down and looked at the little girl: "Then do you still remember what that gentleman looked like?"

The little girl shook her head: "He was wearing a one-eyed mask, and I couldn't see what he looked like. I only knew he was very tall, but his voice was very nice."

"Got it, thank you little sister." Luo Quan touched the little girl's head and took the flowers.

The little girl finished the task and walked away happily.

Luo Quan looked at the light, first cautiously finding a stick to poke it to see if there were any hidden weapons inside.

After finding it normal, she got a little closer and flipped through it.

There was no problem with the flowers. Luo Quan held her breath the whole time and couldn't smell anything. Instead, she saw a card on the outer packaging.

After pulling it off, it was a paragraph: "Beautiful roses for the beautiful you."

There was no signature, but there was a very special symbol, which was an eye installed in an inverted pyramid.

Luo Quan frowned. She remembered having seen this pattern somewhere, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while.

"Strange." Luo Quan muttered, took a picture of the text and pattern on the card, and then threw the flowers and the card into the trash can in the studio.

She was unfamiliar with the place in Jingcheng, and suddenly someone sent her a gift anonymously. Although there was no problem on the surface, she didn't dare to bring it home.

Originally, she thought this was a surprise from a fan who secretly loved her, but unexpectedly, after the rehearsal ended the next day, Luo Quan received a bouquet of roses again.

This time, the person who sent the flowers was a little boy, and the content of the card on the bouquet also changed:

"Did you like the blue enchantress from last night? Those were the best ones that bloomed in my backyard. I poured countless efforts into her. Don't look at her as red, but if watered with blood, she will turn into a ghostly blue, which is very beautiful!"

"It's a pity that you threw such precious flowers into the trash can. You didn't even pay attention to what magical things this bouquet of roses had."

"But it doesn't matter. I guessed you would do this, so I prepared two bouquets."

"Also, if you are interested, would you like to meet me?"

After reading the content of the card, Luo Quan's scalp felt numb, and she immediately threw the bouquet of roses in her hand far away.

The falling petals scattered on the ground, as if a pool of blood had been spilled on the ground.

If it was really as the card said, these roses probably didn't have less blood on them!

"Where did this pervert come from?" Luo Quan sat in her seat, rubbed her eyebrows with cold hands, wanting to make her chaotic thoughts clear.

Although the owner of this "blue enchantress" was quite gentlemanly in his narration, he was not angry at all because Luo Quan threw his precious flowers into the trash can, but instead sent her another bouquet.

But the more this was the case, the more uncomfortable Luo Quan felt.

Her first thought was to call the police, but such a thing without a beginning or end, plus a card that couldn't be called a threat or harassment, even if she called the police, she estimated that she couldn't file a case.

And this person was very smart. The flowers were all sent by children who didn't remember things, and he was wearing a mask. If she called the police, she estimated that there would be no results without a big search.

And doing so was very likely to startle the snake, causing this person to hide completely.

Luo Quan certainly didn't like having such a pervert thinking about her in the dark. If it could be solved, it naturally had to be solved.

Thus, she borrowed a pen and wrote a response on the back of the card:

"Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, see you at Tangchen Yipin Building."

There were many people there, and it was close to the police station. It could be said to be a very safe place. Choosing to meet in such a place, Luo Quan felt it was foolproof, but she didn't know if this person would come.

After writing, Luo Quan threw the bouquet into the trash can just like yesterday.

The next day, Luo Quan arrived at Tangchen Yipin Building early wearing a mask and found a seat by the door.

Boss Wu, who was calculating accounts at the front desk, didn't recognize her, just lowered his head and looked at the account book.

Luo Quan stared tightly at every passerby outside the door of Tangchen Yipin Building, her spirit highly tense.

She always felt that every passerby passing by the gate of Tangchen Yipin Building would enter in the next second and sit opposite her, but every time, these people just passed by.

Luo Quan rubbed her face, knowing that she was a bit anxious, but this was also because she had never encountered similar things.

Just when Luo Quan's attention was all on the passersby outside the gate, the front suddenly darkened, and a tall man in a leather jacket appeared in front of Luo Quan as if he had drilled out of the ground.

Luo Quan didn't expect this person to suddenly appear in front of her, and was so scared that she jumped up, almost subconsciously clenching her fists and posing in the posture of Songtao-style karate.

"Don't be so nervous." The man in the leather jacket laughed. He was at least over 1.9 meters tall, and his long face showed a sickly white color.

"Where did you come from?" Luo Quan put away her posture and asked, still terrified.

The man laughed: "Back door."

Luo Quan frowned, but thought that in broad daylight, there was nothing to be afraid of, so she pulled up the chair she had just knocked away and sat down.

The white-faced man also pulled away the chair opposite Luo Quan and sat down slowly.

The movement here attracted the attention of Boss Wu at the front desk. When Luo Quan jumped up just now, his right hand calculating the abacus stopped, and his eyes were drifting here.

However, seeing the two sit down again, Boss Wu continued to calculate the abacus.

"Who are you?" Luo Quan asked directly.

"You can call me... Count." The man had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Luo Quan sneered: "Is this some kind of code name?"

The Count laughed: "Of course it's a code name. Who would call themselves this name normally?"

Luo Quan took a deep breath and said seriously: "I'm asking for your real name, the kind written on your ID card."

The Count shook his head gently: "I can't tell you this for now."

"Then I'll change the question. What do you want from me?"

"This is a test."

"I don't remember signing up for any exams recently."

"The quota for the exam is decided by the Godfather, and I am the examiner."

Luo Quan sneered: "It seems you are an organization. Is the Godfather your leader?"

"He is the leader of the Huaxia branch, but we are relatively low-key in Huaxia, and no one knows about us. Our influence in Europe and America will be greater."

"You revealed this information to me, aren't you afraid that I will expose you?"

"We are not afraid of anyone or anything." The Count was still laughing, and his smile was a confidence that no one could question.
