Chapter 626

~29 min read 5,693 words

Although Lu Yan He only had three days of filming scenes, because of his popularity and status in the international film scene, plus the success of his previous film *The Mist*, he became the star of *Hurricane 2* second only to Derien Dillon on the set.

Other actors like Lu Yan He who would come to act in a role and add star power to this film did not have filming dates in these few days.

For these three days, all filming had to be tight for Lu Yan He.

Until the third day, the last scene was filmed.

Lu Yan He was shocked to find that the crew actually got several big blowers and made real scenes in the green screen, including the cover they used to hide from the wind, creating a real filming environment for them as much as possible.

This can help actors find their state.

Especially at this critical moment of crisis.

The actor's sense of tension of being on the scene, although it can be acted out, it is definitely better to have a real filming environment that can increase the actor's sense of belief.

"I got you!"

In the strong wind, Lu Yan He felt that he could be blown away at any time, and he opened his mouth to roar at Derien Dillon, his lips seemed to be trembling in the wind.

Derien Dillon was hung in mid-air by steel wires, and under the action of the blower, he presented a feeling of being about to be rolled away by the wind at any time.

This will be the most thrilling scene in the film.

And the moment Derien Dillon was blown away, Lu Yan He grabbed his arm.

The wind was too strong.

Lu Yan He felt that his tears were about to be blown out.

This kind of real scene helped him enter the play too much.

He tried his best to grab Derien Dillon's hand and roared: "Grab me! Don't let go!"

The camera captured the firmness, resolution, and courage in his eyes at this moment when facing the crisis.

Successfully pulling Derien back, the two hid behind the cover again, and the wind speed seemed to have become smaller at this moment.

After the disaster, both of them breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other.

Derien's expression was very complicated at this moment.

He had always thought that Lu Yan He was ruining his business, but he didn't expect that it was he who took action to save him at this moment.

Lu Yan He seemed to have noticed the contradiction in Derien's heart at this moment.

He patted Derien on the shoulder and said: "I just hope everyone is safe and doesn't fall into danger."

Derien was about to say something, suddenly—

Filming stopped.

Next, they were going to film the close-up shot of Lu Yan He being hit by a broken glass.

The other protagonist group members were not on set today.

This last scene is the big climax of the entire film, occupying more than twenty minutes.

Today, they just picked out the scenes of Derien and Lu Yan He separately to film, and then filmed the others later, and through editing, cut them into a complete timeline.

However, filming a movie is good for this point.

A scene of more than twenty minutes can be filmed for many days, and actors will not face the need to constantly switch emotions according to different scenes.

Lu Yan He was a bit tired after acting to the end. Because they were all big emotional scenes, big roaring scenes.

However, such a tired state was very consistent with the state of the character in this scene.

Lu Yan He didn't need to force himself to act in the scenes behind; he should be in whatever state he was in.

After acting, the director didn't make any comments on his performance.

Only twice did he raise questions, both of which were technical questions.

After filming, it went directly to the wrap-up.

Derien patted Lu Yan He on the shoulder and asked: "When are you going back to China?"

"Tomorrow," Lu Yan He said.

Derien winked at Lu Yan He and said: "Then let's have a drink again tonight. It's a pity that you only filmed for three days this time. I like you, Lu. You are different from some Asians I know."

"Oh, when you say this, I don't know whether to express gratitude or accuse you of not discriminating against other Asians," Lu Yan He joked. "However, filming with you this time, the whole process was very pleasant."

Derien nodded, "It's really depressing, this script actually killed your character, otherwise, I must let the screenwriter increase some scenes for your character in the third part."

Lu Yan He smiled.

"We will definitely have other cooperation opportunities in the future," he said. "We have to go and pack up."

Even if *Hurricane 3* still retains this character, he might not necessarily return to act.

For a film like *Hurricane*, one or two are enough.

The main purpose of taking such a film is to catch this global promotion ride and maintain the fame he made globally relying on *The Mist*.

But to say how much help it is to his acting career, that won't be the case. Lu Yan He didn't intend to be a B-list actor in Hollywood all the time.

Coming to act in *Hurricane* once and acting in *Hurricane* twice are not the same concept.

In the former case, many big productions in Hollywood will find some popular actors to play a role. In this case, the industry will not think they are here to play supporting roles.

But the latter, once you act as a supporting role with little screen time in a series continuously, everyone's cognition changes.

On the flight back to China, Lu Yan He had a solid sleep.

He didn't even wake up in the middle; he was really tired.

Three consecutive days of continuous rotation, fully invested in acting out his scenes.

Even if he acted perfunctorily, it would be fine. With the 1.5 million USD paid by the film side, they would still have a few good shots of him in the film—convenient for them to use him for promotion "worth the money." However, Lu Yan He's professional ethics did not allow him to casually water down a role.

So, especially the scene filmed on the third day, he really used 100% investment, fully believed that he was experiencing such a scene, and acted seriously.

He didn't know how the effect was filmed, hope it's OK. Fortunately, this film is a big production, and the talents in all departments are top-notch, and there are various special effects and editing in the later stage. Lu Yan He believes that since he is an "Asian elite" character in the film, at least the image is definitely OK.

Chen Ziyan was already preparing to use the attention and heat of this film to operate the fact that he is very handsome when this film is released.

After all, image is a shared passport all over the world.

In the past, Chen Ziyan hadn't put effort into this aspect, mainly because Lu Yan He didn't have the "acting school" reputation he has today, fearing that his good acting would be dragged down by his appearance—even in Hollywood, many handsome men and beautiful women were ignored for their acting because of their appearance. Now, Lu Yan He's good acting has become a recognized fact in the industry, so Chen Ziyan didn't have such concerns.

When Lu Yan He returned to China, it was already August.

The box office of *Can't Even Fake Death* officially exceeded 650 million, but the box office basically couldn't run anymore.

Of course, this achievement is already a big explosion for *Can't Even Fake Death*.

Li Zhibai and Ji Miao also became the hottest actors in July—among young people. Once this kind of romantic comedy is liked by young men and women, the benefits to the leads are huge. Because the male lead will become the imaginary boyfriend of girls, and the female lead will become the imaginary girlfriend of boys—

Many times, the media often creates an impression that "boys don't watch romantic comedies." This is right, and it is not right, because although boys won't watch a movie for the four words "romantic comedy," they will watch it for a female lead whose appearance is in their aesthetic.

At this time, the promotion of *Love Letter* exerted force again and began to enter the time of the media screening.

The early stage is to lay the foundation, create heat, and pave the basic plate. Now it is necessary for professionals to "lead the rhythm" and drive the audience to really prepare to enter the cinema.

In this regard, the promotion strategy of *Love Letter* has been very clear from beginning to end, which is the student group and the white-collar workers under 35.

Actually, the person in charge of Maowei mentioned whether to expand the scope of promotion.

Because Lu Yan He has many "parent generation" fans.

The identity of a Zhenhua University student made Lu Yan He receive a lot of attention from the parent generation.

Lu Yan He refused directly.

"Do you think this film will be liked by the parent generation?" Lu Yan He asked. "What if many of them watch this film and feel that this film will guide their children to fall in love early, and unite to boycott this film?"

Lu Yan He emphasized again: "Although from the data, the box office of *Love Letter* may have a good achievement, this film is not a film for everyone. Don't promote it as a film that everyone is willing to watch in the cinema."

Maowei was also a bit unhappy because Lu Yan He had too many personal opinions.

As a distribution company, they certainly hope that the box office of this film is as high as possible, the more the better.

The distribution agreement they signed with Lu Yan He, once the box office of this film exceeds 700 million, the distribution side's share ratio will increase by 20%.

This is their first cooperation with Lu Yan He, and they gave Lu Yan He very generous distribution conditions, with a box office guarantee of 350 million, which is very exaggerated. This is also to build a good relationship with Lu Yan He and facilitate continued cooperation in the future. Maowei, a company that specializes in data statistics and analysis, is very clear about the attraction of the three words Lu Yan He to cinema audiences.

But this doesn't mean they will listen to everything Lu Yan He says.

There is still the respect that should be there.

They told Lu Yan He very seriously that the sinking market in cinemas is very critical, almost determining the box office ceiling of a film.

If *Love Letter* only promotes in its fixed audience group, it will directly hand over a large piece of the market to others.

Lu Yan He said: "I think you misunderstood my meaning. I am not saying that other audiences are not important, but if our promotion strategy before the film is released is to catch everything, it is very likely that many people who are not the target audience of this film will enter the cinema, and then feel that they have been greatly deceived, and after coming out, they will also criticize and slander this film. *Love Letter* must take the word-of-mouth route to make the total box office higher. Its basic plate is not small, but we need to ferment it through good word-of-mouth at the beginning."

People from Maowei and people from Lu Yan He's side were arguing about these things almost every day.

In the end, both sides made compromises.

By the day before the release of *Love Letter*, the amount of promotion reached its peak.

The show *How Are You? I'm Fine* broadcast the third episode, and the number of viewers in that period exceeded 10 million, and the QR code for *Love Letter* film pre-sale ticket purchase appeared twice in the middle and end of the show.

Major media of *Jump Up* promoted the news that *Love Letter* would be released tomorrow.

The Zhenhua University Youth Association launched the "Zhenhua Students Watch *Love Letter*" film review sharing activity.

The "Lansen" convenience store endorsed by Lu Yan He launched a "a *Love Letter* movie ticket can enjoy a 5% discount" activity.

The "Baixing" stationery brand endorsed by Lu Yan He launched a "a *Love Letter* movie ticket can enjoy a 20% discount on a total purchase of 100 yuan" activity.

Maowei launched a limited discount activity for pre-sale ticket purchases on the day on its own ticket purchase platform.

The three major platforms of Yuehu Station, Beijiguang Video, and Bingyuan Video all played the trailer of *Love Letter*.

While the short video platform pushed the trailer, it began to push a 15-second soundtrack screen in *Love Letter* on a large scale, and *Childhood Days* blood-washed everyone's mobile phones.

Such a promotion matrix made the two bosses of Long Yan jealous.

This is a promotion level that *Can't Even Fake Death* cannot catch up with.

"*Love Letter* is doing this, and the promotion of other films is weak. This is all-around linkage promotion. A film with a production cost of over 10 million, if this promotion resource was not bridged by Lu Yan He, according to the market price, it would be at least the publicity and distribution expenses of over 100 million for the Spring Festival film."

But in fact, the promotion here, only the short video platform spent money, the others were all friendship cooperation.

However, the two brands "Baixing" and "Lansen" are themselves brands with extremely high national popularity. The number of stores across the country is so large, and the flow of people is so large, they are almost the best in their respective fields. Major brand stores linked with *Love Letter* to do promotion, it can be said that there is no more sinking "sinking" way than this.

You don't have to wait until the day *Love Letter* is released. Just the online box office pre-sale, at 8 pm the night before the release, has already exceeded 100 million.

Lu Yan He is very nervous at this moment.

He talked to Chen Bige on the phone: "Sister Bige, the degree of attention *Love Letter* has received before its release is far beyond my imagination and expectation. My original plan for this film was to take it slowly, slowly relying on word-of-mouth and the word-of-mouth of fans to take the long line, but... I am very nervous now. I am afraid that so many people will rush into the cinema to watch *Love Letter* all at once, and there will be many bad reviews. They at Maowei cannot understand my thoughts at all. You should understand, right? This film, it is not a film suitable for the public."

Chen Bige understands.

"Yan He, you have to believe that the audience who likes it will not change their liking because of others' dislike," Chen Bige encouraged. "Moreover, you have to have more confidence in yourself. The fact that you and I starred in it makes the film *Love Letter* have a few more expectations for artistry in the audience's hearts. If it is too straightforward, it will make them dislike it instead. *Love Letter* is a good story. Just from the story level, it is a good story. It is very clean, simple, and pure. Even if it involves the heartbeat and ambiguity between boys and girls in their school days, this is not its theme. Even if it is fathers and mothers, they also came from that era."

Chen Bige's comfort made Lu Yan He calm down a bit.

However, it was only a little bit.

Probably because *Love Letter* was not a box office hit in the world where the original version was, Lu Yan He was very uneasy about the completely different box office trend now, a kind of uneasiness that was out of his control.

He didn't know what direction *Love Letter* would go in.

On the day *Love Letter* was released, the box office appeared in real-time.

Maowei's first-day box office forecast, the first day is very likely to break 200 million, even if it can't break it, it can be close to this figure.

Because it is during the summer vacation, even on a working day like Friday, the daytime box office does not see any decline.

*Love Letter* led the way with 37% of the scheduling.

Lu Yan He has been brushing everyone's feedback on this film on the internet.

However, there is not much information to be seen on the internet at present.

On the hot search lists of various platforms, they are basically hot search terms arranged by Maowei, as well as terms arranged by Chen Bige and *Shihuo* for Lu Yan He and Zhang Ruozhi.

And in the real-time dynamics, there are both praise and scolding. Those who scold are also within Lu Yan He's expectations, basically feeling that the film is boring, dull, and not good-looking.

But Lu Yan He's homepage has a lot of praise for this film, and it is a sincere praise.

Many people, once they post, are long articles, all mentioning their high school days without exception, mentioning the person they had a crush on in their youth.

Lu Yan He felt at ease when he saw this.

If this film cannot make everyone cherish their youth, then this film can basically be said to have failed.

At the same time, Lu Yan He also found his Weibo... the number of followers suddenly increased a bit fast.

Just Weibo, in just one morning, it actually increased by more than 30,000 followers.

He is not some small star; his fan base is already in the tens of millions. To have such an exaggerated number of followers on such a basis...

Lu Yan He's heart was a little more at ease.

This shows that his image in the film has been established.

For the film *Love Letter*, everyone says his role is a male vase, but only he knows it is not.

Whether his role is successful or not represents whether the role of *Love Letter* is successful or not.

Whether the audience can fall in love with his role together with the two female leads in the film, and substitute their own perspective and emotions, represents whether the film can truly walk into the audience's heart, letting them return from the film to the time when they had a crush on someone.

In the afternoon, Li Zhibai and Yan Liang both appeared in the cinema, physically demonstrating their support for Lu Yan He.

Their appearance in the cinema also triggered the pursuit of the audience in the cinema.

This is another hot topic.

One topic after another, hot searches, and "self-water" style promotion in reality, made the real-time box office of *Love Letter* follow Maowei's data model without slipping.

And whether the first-day box office can break 200 million depends on the performance of the golden time period from 7 pm to 9 pm in the evening.

In the evening, according to Maowei's arrangement, Lu Yan He, Chen Bige, and Zhang Ruozhi split into three paths, surprisingly appeared in different cinemas, met with the audience who finished watching the film, and greeted them.

In one night, Lu Yan He ran to three cinemas. Every time he appeared, he gave the audience in the cinema a huge surprise, and the atmosphere at the scene made Lu Yan He moved frequently.

"Thank you, thank you." Lu Yan He didn't know how many times he said these two words in one night.

It wasn't until 11 pm that Lu Yan He ended the "surprise" itinerary of the night and returned to Huiziyuanqiao.

At this time, today's daily box office has exceeded 190 million and is struggling to move towards 200 million. I don't know if it can break 200 million before zero.

But at this moment, they don't have to wait until zero anymore.

The box office explosion of *Love Letter* has become a established fact.

Lu Yan He returned with unbelievable surprise. Chen Siqi opened a bottle of champagne and prepared to celebrate this achievement with him.

Not only champagne, but also a small cake the size of a palm, with the words 10 billion written on it.

Chen Siqi said: "Wish *Love Letter* box office breaks 1 billion!"

Her smile is very sweet.

Especially under the soft light at home, it is even more so.

Lu Yan He is both tired and excited at this moment.

He touched a glass with Chen Siqi and hugged together.

Chen Siqi said: "If *Love Letter* box office passes 1 billion, will you film a second part?"

"No," Lu Yan He shook his head without thinking.

"Why? I see that many of your plays will film sequels if the results are good."

"Some plays are suitable for filming sequels, but some are not," Lu Yan He kissed Chen Siqi on the forehead, "*Love Letter* is not suitable. It is enough as it is now. Any extra things filmed are burdens."

"You seem to have different feelings for *Love Letter* than for other works, although they are all works written by yourself."

Lu Yan He thought to himself, because for many previous works, he just felt they were good-looking, or the original box office was high, and it was a successful work.

But *Love Letter* is a film that he really hasn't forgotten for a long time after watching it.

Just like *Dragon Inn*, just like *Chinese Paladin*, those are different works.

Every creator, because of his own growth experience, has works that are very different for him personally.

It may not be the one the public likes the most, but because of special experiences, it has a "private collection" nature for the creator.

Lu Yan He kissed Chen Siqi on the cheek again.

Chen Siqi raised her face, looked at Lu Yan He, and smiled.

"I thought you would be very tired today."

"Well, it is a bit tired." Lu Yan He nodded, and after finishing, he kissed Chen Siqi's lips.

Chen Siqi gave a light moan.

Lu Yan He kissed while holding her and slowly lay down on the sofa.

"This film *Love Letter* fully expresses Lu Yan He's understanding of film. At first glance, it is a vulgar youth love story. If you look carefully, it makes a clever structural design on this basis through a design of the same name and surname and letter exchanges. You think it is still vulgar, but the film told you from the beginning that this boy died. You think it is a painful memory, but a letter from you reveals a past you don't understand. How are you? I am fine. People who have truly loved will probably sit in the cinema and burst into tears after hearing these six words."

"Finally, I didn't hear a soundtrack with lyrics in a romantic film. Lu Yan He is worthy of being a composer who can compose music himself and wrote a series of masterpieces such as *Commemoration*, *Green Apple Paradise*, and *Young Battlefield*. He, Hou Jun, pianist Huang Yufei, and cellist Lu Youyou created several pieces of music, putting every detail of this film into the notes and sending them into the audience's heart. This is the best romantic film soundtrack I have ever seen."

"Can't believe it, Lu Yan He only used more than 10 million to film this film with a very high configuration behind the scenes. Look at the list of production staff, every production department has big names sitting in town. A film that looks very simple and plain, but in every link, it gives the top aesthetic standard. Photography screen, background soundtrack, actor performance, costume art... he took us back to that student era twenty years ago, that era that seemed to be shrouded in dusk and sunset."

"The scene where the two of them rode bicycles out of school with stinky faces, my tears came out in an instant. When I and my first love were not together, the exact same thing happened. At that time, the more dragging the face, the more I actually cared in my heart."

"I thank Lu Yan He for appearing in the lens with absolute bare face with Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi. I finally saw the most real, unadorned beauty in the film again. This film is enough to show that youth is beautiful enough, without any decoration."

"I will never be a fan in my life. Who can understand my mood when Lu Yan He read a book by the window? Who can understand my girlhood fantasy, suddenly appearing on the big screen at that moment, my heartbeat suddenly like a deer bumping? How did he film himself so handsome! Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi are inferior in front of him."

The next morning, the sunlight spilling through the gauze curtains covered their young bodies, making their bodies emit a glaze-like luster.

Chen Siqi sat on the head of the bed, holding her mobile phone, reading the netizens' evaluation of *Love Letter* to Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He held one of Chen Siqi's hands, rubbing it unconsciously.

These comments made Lu Yan He's mood like floating in the clouds. It is false to say that it is not light.

Because he had already foreseen that his mobile phone would explode, he turned off his mobile phone last night.

No one could find him at this time.

He was able to enjoy a beautiful morning at this time.

Chen Siqi put down the mobile phone and looked at Lu Yan He lying beside her.

A few years later, he still seems to have no change from high school.

The sunlight stayed between his eyebrows, and he, who had experienced so many things in the entertainment industry, still had the heroic spirit and innocence of a teenager.

Chen Siqi touched Lu Yan He's hair gently with the hand that put down the mobile phone.

Lu Yan He immediately raised his head, a pair of eyes looking at her brightly, like a little wolf dog hearing a call.

An infinitely gentle love crossed Chen Siqi's heart.

She leaned down and took the initiative to kiss Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He immediately turned over, hugged her waist, and kissed back.

"At this time, why is the mobile phone still turned off!" Chen Ziyan put down the mobile phone with some annoyance, "If you don't answer the phone again, I will kill him at home."

Lu Qingzhen saw Chen Ziyan so annoyed and knew that she was not annoyed that Lu Yan He didn't answer the phone.

"Don't worry, *Love Letter* box office performance is so good now, even if *Friends* was set up by the Golden Tripod Awards, it doesn't matter." She comforted.

"This is called nothing? They might as well just let *Friends* be eliminated!" Chen Ziyan was so angry that her facial features were distorted.

She rarely gets so angry.

The incident happened an hour ago.

The Golden Tripod Awards, which should have released the nomination list in July, waited until this time to finally release the nomination list for this year.

But a very strange scene appeared—

In this nomination list, a batch of award lists actually appeared.

Best Sitcom Work: *Friends*.

Best Sitcom Director: Bai Jingnian.

Best Sitcom Actor: Yin Xincheng *Friends*.

Best Sitcom Actress: Zhan Yun *Friends*.

Best Sitcom Script: *Friends*.

And in the other nomination lists, there is no trace of *Friends*.

As soon as this list was announced, the whole network exploded.

Why did a Best Sitcom award suddenly pop up?

Why are other awards nomination lists, and *Friends* directly won the award? And it included all sitcom awards?

Huang Lian, the chairman of the Golden Tripod Awards Executive Committee, explained at the press conference where the nominations were announced: "We also heard everyone's voice for *Friends* in the early stage. As an award that has always been called the Audience Choice Award, the Golden Tripod Awards have always been working hard to balance television art and audience preferences. *Friends*, as a leader in domestic sitcoms, is indeed worthy of the affirmation of the Golden Tripod Awards, but because this is still a professional award, we still have to seriously combine the content and artistry of a drama to talk about the attribution of awards. Therefore, after the discussion of the judges, we hope to adopt such a way to express support and recognition for *Friends*, which has opened up territory for our Chinese sitcoms."

Chen Ziyan was so angry that her mouth was crooked when she heard this.

"What kind of broken thing!"

Lu Qingzhen was also very angry.

Because Huang Lian and the Golden Tripod Awards made such a mess, it made it seem like in the eyes of Huang Lian and the Golden Tripod Awards, *Friends* actually had no qualification to win an award at all, but because the public opinion was too loud, they had no choice but to tailor these new awards for *Friends*.

Yes, no need to evaluate, no competition for the nomination list, directly give the award.

Seemingly valued, recognized, and given the most special treatment.

Actually?

"It's simply an insult!"

Everyone is looking for Lu Yan He.

How to respond to this matter must be communicated with Lu Yan He first.

And Lu Yan He's black fans have already been dispatched.

Saying that Lu Yan He previously coerced public opinion to compete for the Golden Tripod Awards, forcing the Golden Tripod Awards to set up awards for them to satisfy Lu Yan He, etc.

Saying that Lu Yan He is now relying on his status and popularity to force a professional award to have to do such a ridiculous thing.

Chen Ziyan directly arranged for *Shihuo* to promote the news of the Blue Ribbon Award evaluation mechanism reform, and in the tone of "insider news," directly exposed the truth behind the "separate award setting" and the grudge between the Golden Tripod Awards and Lu Yan He.

As for how many people believe this trick, Chen Ziyan does not consider it for the time being. Now it is just to have a response attitude for the first time, so that the internet public opinion will not attack Lu Yan He one-sidedly.

And the Golden Tripod Awards actually announced the nomination list at this time, and Huang Lian said such words at this time. Chen Ziyan could not help but speculate with the most malicious thoughts that Huang Lian was aiming at *Love Letter*, wanting to take the opportunity to pull down the box office of *Love Letter*.

Lu Yan He is the absolute core of *Love Letter*. If his image has problems, it will definitely affect the box office of *Love Letter*.

Therefore, Chen Ziyan first spread the news that Lu Yan He was targeted and retaliated by the Golden Tripod Awards and Huang Lian because he supported the fairness of the award evaluation.

Regardless of authenticity, only look at the volume—

Anyway, it is not an official response, no evidence is needed.

It is just comparing whose story is more convincing.

By the time Chen Ziyan finally contacted Lu Yan He, it was already 11:30.

"Big brother, you finally answered the phone." Chen Ziyan said helplessly as soon as the phone was connected, "Do you know, if you were an emperor in the palace in ancient times, the palace gate of your palace would have been broken at this time?"

Lu Yan He coughed twice awkwardly, "I was too tired, I just woke up."

Chen Ziyan didn't believe it.

She asked: "Do you know what happened?"

"I know," Lu Yan He said, "Siqi told me just now."

"Oh, she told you, and you remembered to turn on your mobile phone, right?" Chen Ziyan hummed twice. The situation is relatively severe now, she decided not to say these things for the time being, and asked, "How do you think we should respond?"

"There is nothing to respond to. This is not an award that our *Friends* applied for. I don't intend to go to receive the award," Lu Yan He said bluntly, "Whoever likes to go, go."

"Refuse to receive the award?" Chen Ziyan was stunned, "Really?

Clearly a mixed place, but there was a place marked as "strangers keep out" by him.

Besides the two of them, several other actors from the crew also came.

Because Lu Yan He came on the first day, everyone's topics were basically around him at first, curiously asking many questions.

When they learned that Lu Yan He was promoting a film, and the film he won an award at the Hexi Film Festival was about to be released in about ten days, they all showed shocked expressions.

Derien was also surprised and said: "Don't you have to fully invest in the promotion at this time?"

In Hollywood, generally after a film is released, there will be various promotion activities, and the lead actor's schedule is basically around this film.

Lu Yan He said bluntly: "Our Chinese film promotion is different from Hollywood. You have formed a very fixed promotion mode here. When a film is released, how the film should be promoted has a set mode. But in our China, if we rely entirely on your side, holding screening activities one by one, mainly through media reports and film critics' word-of-mouth, or recording one or two talk shows to promote a film, the box office will likely be very bad. Even if I don't come to film this movie, my current promotion schedule should have stopped."

Now is the time for the topics stirred up by the previous university screening activities and the *How Are You? I'm Fine* show to slowly ferment.
