Do you know I went on stage to accept the award for you? I didn't prepare a damn thing—no, wait, I prepared one for Best Director, but I didn't prepare an acceptance speech for you! When I got up there, I didn't know whether to speak Chinese or English...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right!\" Li Xiaotian’s cheerful voice came from the side. \"In the end, he just said a few words, thanked himself, and thanked me, making those reporters think he was Chen Nuo at first. They kept shouting 'Chen, Chen'—haha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nuo couldn't help but laugh, saying, \"Then you should just answer to it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yi laughed triumphantly again, and Li Xiaotian interjected with genuine emotion, \"Chen Nuo, I have to tell you, when Yao'er asked you to act, I was skeptical. I never imagined we could make it this far. I remember when we first started filming, Yao'er told me he felt our fates would all be changed by you. Looking at it now, it’s true. So, thank you, Chen Nuo. Really, thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yi said, \"Why are you thanking him? If it weren't for us, could he have won Best Actor? Hey, remember to treat me to a meal when you get back! Otherwise, I’m not giving you the trophy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the call with Zhang Yi and preparing to sleep, Qi Yuntian’s call came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he picked up, he heard Qi Yuntian yelling and screaming on the other end, rattling off countless exclamations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Berlin Best Actor! Chen Nuo, I was still sleeping when my mom woke me up and lectured me, asking how I could be your manager if she had to be the one to tell me such big news. I told her, the only artist I have is currently trying to get into film school—you expect me to believe he’d win Best Actor? Isn't that testing my imagination a bit too much? Anyway, I’m ready to turn over a new leaf. Where are you? I’m coming to find you right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took a lot of convincing for Chen Nuo to calm down Qi Yuntian’s urge to rush over to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, since we're on the subject, let's discuss what you plan to do next,\" Qi Yuntian’s voice turned more serious. \"The list only came out tonight. Tomorrow, all the media will react. I bet that by noon tomorrow, their calls will definitely be hitting both your phone and mine. Do you want us to ride this wave to build some fame, or...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or what? Forget it. Come pick me up early tomorrow morning; I’m catching the earliest flight back to Xichuan. After the exam, I need to go back and study.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mean you’re choosing the second option? You really don't want to be a star?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not even being a 'scumbag' anymore, what kind of star would I be!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Chen Nuo got up very early. After packing his things, he checked the time—it was only 6:00. Yang Mi’s room door hadn't opened yet. Last night, when he was on the phone, Yang Mi had already gone to sleep. She probably didn't know about his situation yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no need to wake her up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nuo left a note for Yang Mi. Knowing she would surely get into film school as she wished, he didn't write much, just two sentences: \"I won't be checking the results. I'm leaving first; we'll meet again at school later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nuo pulled his suitcase out the door. At 6:20, Qi Yuntian’s red Mazda arrived at the entrance of the residential complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they met, Qi Yuntian gave him a big hug. \"Let me rub off some of your good luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nuo laughed and hugged him back. \"Alright, go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yuntian let go, looked at him, shook his head with a sigh, and asked, \"You're really leaving?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way to the airport, Chen Nuo received a congratulatory call from Chen Kexin. He checked his watch—it was only 7:30.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Kexin offered his congratulations first, then said on the phone that if it was convenient for Chen Nuo, could he come back to Shanghai in a few days to reshoot a few scenes, saying there were some minor adjustments to the script.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Nuo agreed, saying to just contact him when he was needed. After hanging up, Qi Yuntian said, \"See? This is just the beginning. Once you go back, I can imagine how busy my phone will be. By the way... never mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spit it out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yuntian hesitated for a moment and said, \"You and that person surnamed Xia?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was just that one time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yuntian breathed a sigh of relief and said, \"That’s good. From now on, you really can't mess around. If anything happens, let me know in advance. I don't want to wake up one day and see your photo with someone on the front page of the newspaper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, go home and study hard. I'll handle everything else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yuntian said it nicely, claiming he would handle it, but after Chen Nuo stayed in Xichuan for three days, Qi Yuntian couldn't handle it anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We both thought it would be simple, thinking you could find peace by returning to Xichuan, but... unless you and I cut ourselves off from the people and move overseas to live at Mount Rushmore, but I don't think you have that kind of power yet. So... you must accept this interview.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then, set a time and let them come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tu Jingwei, a host for CCTV-6, had worked as an on-location host at Macau Television for over three years at the age of 19. Later, she was finally scouted by CCTV and came to Jingcheng to host \"China Movie Report\" on Channel 6.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Mute's House\"—this film was already known to everyone in the industry, with a reputation ten times louder than \"Peacock\" or \"The Wayward Cloud.\" But those who had actually seen it were few and far between.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The director, Zhang Yi, was said to be a graduate student in the Directing Department at the Beijing Film Academy and had not yet returned to the country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lead actor, Chen Nuo, was a young student from the Performance Department at the Beijing Film Academy, only 18 years old and not yet enrolled. He was currently in his hometown preparing for exams, which was why she had finally gone out for an on-location shoot after a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Tu Jingwei and her team got off the taxi at the given address, the group looked around. It was the entrance to a fairly large residential complex. The complex was quite new, likely built not long ago, consisting of elevator apartments, which could be considered a cut above the surrounding buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this it?\" Tu Jingwei asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were four people in their group this time; besides the host Tu Jingwei, the cameraman, and the lighting technician, there was also a young assistant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"42 Dongping Street, Tiancheng Garden main gate. That's right, it should be this gate,\" the assistant said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The complex is quite nice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I checked before coming here. This city doesn't have much industry; it relies on coal exports to make some money each year. These houses would be considered quite good even in Jingcheng. Here, I suspect only the wealthy can afford to live in them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder if they'll treat us to a good meal tonight. Xichuan cuisine is famous nationwide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, I want to eat it too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Tu Jingwei and the others were chatting, they saw a boy around 20 years old come out from inside the complex. He looked around and then walked toward their group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you Ms. Tu?\" the boy asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tu Jingwei nodded and said, \"I am.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am Chen Nuo. Welcome to Long'an.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1372,"2026-06-21T01:34:38.888Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","665ca3df6ec8df19ae317b8228c13cd4269cb38042dedf0169ef03fcccae4ba5","reborn-in-huayu-they-re-forcing-me-to-be-a-jerk--chapter-48","reborn-in-huayu-they-re-forcing-me-to-be-a-jerk--chapter-46",491,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-huayu-they-re-forcing-me-to-be-a-jerk--cover.jpg"]
