Chapter 331: I am your real father

I don't know if it's because Douyin felt a bit embarrassed.

After the live streaming room crash incident, when Bai Liang scrolled through Douyin, the probability of seeing clips of *Ming Dynasty* increased a lot.

He asked Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi, and she said the promotion work she was responsible for didn't buy traffic; it was just like before.

But Bai Liang truly and surely scrolled past many clip videos accompanied by the "Ming Dynasty Ominous Song."

The so-called "Ming Dynasty Ominous Song" is actually a song with a bit of a theatrical style and a somewhat sorrowful melody.

This thing wasn't something Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi actively sought out as a BGM for clip marketing; instead, it was created by a wild video blogger, and then it went viral.

It went viral along with *Ming Dynasty*.

It went viral inexplicably~

Just like someone can suddenly explode in popularity by twisting a few times in an underground garage; though it burns fast and gets banned fast, many netizens still express in the comments that they can't forget that girl from the underground garage.

The internet is just like this, filled with a lot of uncertainty.

But Bai Liang still felt like something was strange somewhere...

"Flowers bloom and flowers wither, flowers fill the sky; it is you who flickers in and out of sight."

"Day after day, dusk after dusk, between dawn and dusk, yet it is hard to outline your face."

"..."

Accompanied by this BGM, watching the people of the Old Zhu family start to die one by one, Bai Liang pondered that he would soon join this ranks.

The Zhu Zhu Zhanji he played was also about to die.

And not just the currently airing *Ming Dynasty*.

Perhaps because there weren't enough people from the Old Zhu family in just one drama, netizens even dug up the 2006 *Zhu Yuanzhang* starring Hu Jun to use as material.

And the Chongzhen Emperor played by Gao Hu has also been hanging himself frantically on Douyin recently...

Bai Liang doesn't know how many times he has heard that eunuch named Wang Chengen beside him shouting, "Respectfully send the Ming Emperor on his way."

In short, the people of the Old Zhu family are now lining up on Douyin to "die for everyone to see."

Ah!

After scrolling through a few more videos, Bai Liang finally discovered the strange part.

This song has been around for so long?

Although he doesn't remember exactly when it came out, it definitely wasn't now...

Knowing where it was wrong, Bai Liang felt comfortable, and he was too lazy to explore the specific details of what was wrong.

This little butterfly of his now flaps its wings, and the wind it creates is very fierce.

Some things appearing early, some things appearing late, or even disappearing, are all normal.

Anyway, he's not a literary plagiarist.

The early appearance of the "Ming Dynasty Ominous Song" can be considered as adding another fire to the marketing of *Ming Dynasty*; overall, it's a good thing.

It's ultimately a step further on the road to breaking out of the circle.

Regarding this, Miss Jing Tian is quite happy; she cares more about the results of *Ming Dynasty* than Bai Liang, the big male lead.

And she is supporting it with physical actions.

How is she supporting it?

She screenshotted it for Bai Liang to see; as long as she scrolls past praise for *Ming Dynasty* or film clips, she likes them.

This level of support is too great!

*The Longest Day in Chang'an* crew.

As the filming progress nears its end, the actors in the crew should finish their scenes and leave.

Miss Ni Ni had even finished her scenes while Bai Liang went to attend the Golden Eagle Awards.

The two didn't even have time to say goodbye.

However, for her, the most difficult period had already passed.

Although *The Rise of Phoenixes* was pitted quite miserably by Chen Kun, she now has some hope.

In addition to *The Longest Day in Chang'an*, which she collaborated on with Bai Liang, there is also *Love and Destiny*, which will also be released next year.

I don't know if it's because *The Rise of Phoenixes* was too much of a flop, but *Love and Destiny* seems unable to be broadcast on satellite TV...

If it flops again, she might really have to passively enter a "having children" state.

From this point, Bai Liang felt that her *Love and Destiny* shouldn't flop.

And the director of this film is Lin Lin Yufen; she is still quite reliable.

This is also a big regret for Ni Ni; at that time, Lin Lin Yufen had even looked for Bai Liang, asking if he had the schedule to film *Love and Destiny*.

It's a pity that he really didn't.

After Ni Ni knew about this, she was quite autistic at the time; it turns out she had a chance to collaborate with Bai Liang long ago... If she had been as open-minded as Jing Tian at the time and chosen to find a big thigh to hug, *Love and Destiny* couldn't have failed to be on satellite TV.

Of course, the bigger regret is that, damn it, she seduced Bai Liang so many times in the crew, and this kid just wouldn't fall for it!

Ni Ni was too embarrassed to push him down in reverse...

Before finishing her scenes and leaving the crew, she sent Bai Liang a message: Next time for sure.

Clearly, Bai Liang's concentration is not something an ordinary person can compare to.

How did Nazha operate back then?

Original silk stockings were hung beside him, and the guy remained unmoved.

Want him to take the initiative? How is that possible~

Like this kind of seduction from a big sister, it's still more suitable for Arthur; he definitely wouldn't be able to block it.

"Right, Arthur?"

"Ah?"

Bai Liang looked with interest at Arthur, who was sitting in front of him, looking a bit reserved.

Tsk tsk tsk, the sun rose from the west!

Arthur actually came to visit his set~

The son of the great director Chen Chen Kaige suddenly called Bai Liang yesterday, stammering that he wanted to come and visit the set.

At that time, Bai Liang was shocked, thinking to himself, could it be that he is now truly killing both men and women?

Carrying curiosity, he agreed, mainly wanting to see what was up with Arthur.

If something was wrong, he would beat him up and tie him up to send to Director Chen.

The two had actually only met once, and that was around the end of last year, when Bai Liang went to the *Ever Night* crew to pull Meng Jie out.

At that time, Arthur was still quite shy...

Now it's a bit different, because *Ever Night* just started airing, and the premiere data is quite good.

Of course, it has nothing to do with a blockbuster, but for a male-frequency IP adaptation where the leads basically have no fame, it's already a quite good result.

At least it suppressed *Battle Through the Heavens* and *Martial Universe*, which also aired this year.

These three dramas are quite interesting; *Ever Night* has Meng Jie, *Martial Universe* has Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianai, and *Battle Through the Heavens* has Li Qin.

Currently, it's actually Meng Jie who is doing the best in male-frequency IP adaptations.

The character Ye Ye Hongyu has quite a lot of characteristics, and it has circled a lot of fans for her.

Meng Jie is also climbing up step by step, working hard~

And Li Qin and Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianai, who were tearing each other apart in the crew, are both pulling.

It's estimated that Meng Jie is going to show off in that little girls' group of *The Captain*.

Similarly, Arthur can be considered to have defeated Yang Yang and Wu Lei, so he looks a bit more confident, not as tightly wound as before.

"What are you looking for me for?"

"That... my dad, no, Director Chen Chen Kaige has a movie... there's a character that is quite suitable..."

The moment he talked to Bai Liang, Arthur's confidence was knocked back in one second.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his momentum leaked.

He spoke stammeringly and unclearly. "Your dad has a movie he wants to find me for? He can just contact my agent directly; why let you run a trip?" Bai Liang looked at Arthur suspiciously, feeling he was a bit strange.

"A tribute film for the 70th anniversary of the founding of the country."

"Oh~ *My People, My Country*, I know about it."

Bai Liang naturally wouldn't be unaware of this project, because he definitely had to participate.

Regarding this matter, Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi had already told him.

This thing belongs to the task distribution of the entertainment industry; like Bai Liang and Wu Jing, who are so prominent, they can't run away.

They are designated to come and grab him as "strong labor."

However, *My People, My Country* is in a unit drama mode, with several directors filming one segment each, so it won't take too long.

Next year is the 70th anniversary of the founding of the country, and tribute films are indispensable.

Arthur looked blankly at Bai Liang, seemingly not knowing how to say the rest.

He is now quite regretful in his heart; he shouldn't have said that much to his dad...

Among the unit dramas of *My People, My Country*, the one his dad is responsible for is called *Daytime Meteor*, and the protagonists are two young people.

!

One of them is naturally Arthur; he is his dad's son, after all, so he can always get a lead role.

As for the other one...

Does this still need to be thought about?

The only 10-billion-box-office actor among the young people in the film circle.

Among all the young male actors in the entire circle, only Liu Liu Haoran can slightly PK with Bai Liang, and that's only slightly.

Anyway, even Chen Chen Kaige himself locked onto Bai Liang, feeling that it would be best for him to come and star in *Daytime Meteor* with his son.

After Arthur knew about this, he was ecstatic: Is it true, Daddy?!

Chen Chen Kaige: What kind of talk is that, I am your real father~

As a result, during the meeting, he heard Xu Zheng and Wen Wen Muye, who were responsible for the other two unit dramas, chatting and saying: "Are you looking for Bai Liang, or am I looking for Bai Liang?"

As the general director, Chen Chen Kaige, seeing that the person he wanted to find was actually targeted by his "subordinates" in advance, naturally couldn't endure it.

Just at this time, Arthur jumped out and said: I have "old ties" with Bai Liang; I'll go help you get him!

Chen Chen Kaige was overjoyed: Good, my son has grown up! It's decided to be you~

That's about what it means, and then Arthur really ran to the *The Longest Day in Chang'an* crew.

Not to mention, he was quite polite, not summoning Bai Liang with just one phone call.

After roughly describing the situation, Arthur looked at Bai Liang with expectation.

"This... I have to ask my agent; I'm mainly afraid she has already promised other directors for me, and that wouldn't be too good."

"Right, right, that's how it is..."

Actually, Bai Liang didn't mind which unit he acted in.

For such unit dramas and film nature, whether acting well or badly doesn't have such a big saying.

To be precise, it's not easy to act badly, because there is an entire entertainment industry of actors to choose from.

Except for Arthur, the relationship-based person...

And even if *Daytime Meteor* is filmed badly, with Chen Chen Kaige and Arthur there, it won't be Bai Liang's turn to take the blame.

The father and son aren't even afraid that Arthur won't be able to say his lines well when crushed by him, so what does he have to be afraid of?

At the same time, he was also quite curious about one thing: Was *Farewell My Concubine* really filmed by Chen Chen Kaige?

Just as Bai Liang was calling Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi, Brother Brother Xizi came to play games...

As a result, as soon as he got on Bai Liang's RV, he looked at Arthur face to face.

Facing Bai Liang, Arthur was trembling and stammering.

But facing Brother Brother Xizi, he stood up straight.

Slightly raising his head, after sizing up the other party, he gave an evaluation in his heart: He doesn't look good either~ He's not tall, and this is also top traffic? Heh, then I can be top traffic too!

At this moment, Arthur's confidence was regained from Brother Brother Xizi.

He didn't speak, just nodded, which counted as a greeting.

And Brother Brother Xizi, seeing the other party looking so arrogant, was actually a bit bluffed; who is this? So arrogant...

He felt he had some impression, but couldn't remember clearly.

But no matter who it is, it doesn't matter.

Understand the Alibaba Crown Prince?

After Brother Brother Xizi greeted him, he found a place to sit down, and then skillfully started to start the game console...

This appearance looked exactly like a child going to a neighbor's house to play games.

Bai Liang, while communicating with Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi, looked at these two "Crown Princes" from the 00s outside, feeling that this painting style was quite fresh.

Not very old, but they already had a bit of a "kings don't see kings" posture.

Neither wants to bird the other; did they both discover that the other is a resource person?

Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi, after telling Bai Liang about the situation of *My People, My Country*, added at the end: "Brother Brother Dou Xiao Bai, Director Wu Jing called me yesterday to ask where you are, but didn't say what for; he might also want to find you, and he asked about your schedule."

Schedule?

First of all, it definitely can't be *Wolf Warrior 3*...

"As soon as I saw this RV, I knew it was you kid's!"

The phone hadn't hung up yet, and Wu Jing's loud voice was already ringing outside the RV door.

He didn't stand on ceremony with Bai Liang, poked his head in to look, and then walked in directly.

Then, seeing those two "Crown Princes," he was also stunned. "Yo~ Brother Liang, is this a tutoring class?"

"I love hearing you call me Brother Liang, but I feel like you didn't come here for anything good today."

"It's indeed not anything good... I came to ask you for help."

"Looking for me to film? Then you have to ask Sister Sister Sister Sister Sister Yanzi if she can move your schedule; I already owe at least one movie and two TV dramas next year, look, this kid's dad also has a play looking for me."

"His dad is..." Wu Jing looked at Arthur, a bit puzzled.

Arthur and Brother Brother Xizi had already stood up, as obedient as students caught by the dean.

"My dad is Chen Chen Kaige."

"Director Chen~" Wu Jing nodded, understanding. "*My People, My Country*, right? I'm also filming that, but I guess I'm not in the same unit as you."

Hearing this, Bai Liang was happy. "You were also grabbed as strong labor?"

Regarding being grabbed as strong labor, Wu Jing clearly had a lot to say to Bai Liang.

However, with two "Crown Princes" there, his complaints weren't easy to open.

The key is that these two have no eye for the situation.

Still poking there~

Fortunately, Bai Liang isn't a good person either; he kicked them both down with one foot each.

The force was just right, stunned but not hurting the body.

After being kicked off the RV, the two Crown Princes subconsciously scratched their heads; their movements were so consistent that they could go to *Pacific Rim* to drive mechas.

After discovering the other party's behavior, the two stopped scratching their heads at the same time, and then each turned their heads not to look at the other.

This might be the repulsion between resource people.

And on the RV, Wu Jing also told Bai Liang his complaints: *The Climbers*.

Before complaining, he shamelessly asked Bai Liang to definitely come and play a role, just to help his brother out; this project is really a bit of a pit, and without some familiar people, his heart is restless.

Bai Liang: Then I'll guest star~ It's not impossible; I'm a professional guest star.

However, to prevent this guy from making his guest appearance turn from three days into thirty days, Bai Liang laid down a preventive needle first.

Because when *The Climbers* starts filming, it happens to be the promotion period for *The Wandering Earth*.

If Wu Jing really kidnapped Bai Liang, Guo Fan could kill him...

But Bai Liang gave Wu Jing a very interesting idea.

Isn't it a coincidence, Red Bull is planning to do something big next year.

What's the point of climbing Mount Everest in a movie? I'll take you to climb it for real, how about that?

Wu Jing:??? ——

Three updates, mwah, it's the last day, everyone don't forget to vote for monthly tickets~
