Chapter 67: Chen Nuo's HD Raw Photos

A Lotus: "Right, I was just about to say, just like Xia Yu, peaking at his debut."

March Wind September Rain: "Haha, I want to say they are essentially different."

A Lotus: "How are they different?"

March Wind September Rain: "One is ugly, one is handsome."

A Lotus: "Haha, is that a reason?"

March Wind September Rain: "Yes."

Shencheng Albert: "That is indeed a reason. There are many Best Actors who have won Oscars, and even more who have won in Berlin and Cannes, but who are the Best Actors and Actresses who truly became superstars in the end?"

March Wind September Rain: "Either handsome guys or beautiful women."

Shencheng Albert: "Right, haha."

A Lotus: "I'm dizzy, I'm speechless."

Nie Nie Bo Da: "Haha."

Lin Shen: "Hahahahahaha, makes sense."

Ningning: "I recalled it, Te-te is reliable this time."

A Lotus: "That's too far-fetched, okay! What kind of reason is that?"

Shencheng Albert: "Sister Lotus, don't be excited. If you think about it carefully, you'll know it's a fact. This world is essentially a world that judges people by their appearance. Furthermore, if there are 99 levels of judging people by appearance, the entertainment industry is undoubtedly on the 100th level."

Nie Nie Bo Da: "Haha."

Lin Shen: "Hahahahahahahaha... *hiccup*..."

Ningning: "I'm dying of laughter."

Shi Ningwei also laughed and typed: "I went to the premiere. Chen Nuo himself is actually quite different from the mute. Sister Lotus is indeed wrong this time."

Ningning: "Brother Shi is here!!!!"

Nie Nie Bo Da: "Brother Shi, kneeling and begging for live photos!!!!"

Lin Shen: "Brother, post the photos quickly! I want to see the raw photos!!!!! I can't wait all night!"

March Wind September Rain: "Master!!! Begging for photos!"

Shencheng Albert: "Haven't quite a few photos been released from *Return of the Condor Heroes*? Are you ladies still so thirsty?"

Ningning: "What are you talking about? Are period costumes and daily photos the same thing?"

Lin Shen: "Exactly, exactly, men don't know shit. Brother Shi, post them quickly. Begging you."

Brother Shi: "There are some in the film review I just wrote. Go check my blog. It's too late today; I'll organize the rest of the photos and send them to you tomorrow after I return to Guangzhou."

Lin Shen: "?"

Ningning: "There's nothing here."

Shi Ningwei was stunned for a moment and typed: "What do you mean nothing?"

Shencheng Albert: "You didn't post it. Check again; maybe it's a network issue and it didn't go through."

March Wind September Rain: "Really, I went to check, there's nothing." Shi Ningwei hurriedly returned to his blog, only to see the latest post was "Arrived in Chengdu, leaving for the premiere immediately."

What's going on? It clearly showed "Published Successfully" just now. Could there be a problem with the hotel's network? Shi Ningwei re-checked the Wi-Fi, copied and pasted the text from the Word document again, and clicked publish again.

The screen popped up: "Published successfully. Thank you for your hard work in writing. The blog is our common home, and we need to maintain it together."

That should work, right? Shi Ningwei refreshed the page, and the latest post on the homepage showed: "We Are All Mutes."

Returning to the QQ group, Brother Shi: "OK, probably the hotel network was bad. You guys check now."

Ningning: "Still nothing."

March Wind September Rain: "There is, I was refreshing just now, it appeared for a second, but just as I clicked in, it 404'd."

Shencheng Albert: "Right, it was deleted. Brother Shi, contact Sina quickly; maybe there are forbidden words somewhere."

Shi Ningwei's heart sank.

Deleted? No way, right?

He hurriedly opened the webpage and refreshed it.

Sure enough, the latest post was again "Arrived in Chengdu..."

Shi Ningwei's original high expectations suddenly fell into an ice cellar. He had been counting on this to be his first film review with over 100,000 clicks!

It really was deleted.

Shi Ningwei sat in his chair for ten seconds. He immediately took out his phone and, regardless of the fact that it was 4:00 AM on May 1st, Labor Day, dialed his editor, Wheat.

Unexpectedly, it only rang two or three times before the other party picked up.

"Teacher Shi, hello."

The other party didn't seem surprised, and judging by the noise, they should still be at the company. Shi Ningwei didn't exchange pleasantries and asked directly: "Wheat, I just posted a blog, and it was deleted by your backend as soon as it was posted. Can you help me check where the problem is? I'll modify it and post it again."

"Teacher, I deleted this article of yours personally. It can't be posted even if you modify it."

Shi Ningwei was stunned for a moment, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "What's wrong with this film review of mine? From beginning to end, I was just recounting the plot of the film. Why did you delete the article without even saying a word?"

Wheat said: "Teacher, don't be angry. To be honest, a notice came from above saying that commenting on the plot of *The Mute* is not allowed. It's not just you; we are working overtime tonight just for this matter. We're killing them as soon as they appear; heads are rolling, and our hands are soft."

Shi Ningwei was both shocked and angry: "Since that's the case, why let it be released in theaters? Wouldn't it be enough to just kill it directly?"

Wheat's tone was flat, like a breeze blowing through a wheat field in autumn: "Brother Ning, I won't say anything else. I know you went to the premiere specifically today and definitely want to post a film review to give your fans an explanation. Think about it carefully; actually, besides the film's plot, there's a lot else to write about, right? With your level, Brother Ning, find another angle to write from, and it will still be popular."

At this point, Shi Ningwei gave up. He felt disheartened and wanted to turn off the computer and go to sleep, but he hesitated again. If he posted it tomorrow, he wouldn't catch the first wave of popularity, so what was the point of him traveling so far to attend the premiere?

But if he couldn't comment on the film's plot, what else could he write about? Recalling what those people in the group said, Shi Ningwei sighed and could only turn his gaze to his DSLR camera... Half an hour later, he selected some photos and wrote a new title: "*The Zhang Zhang Yaba's House* Premiere, Live HD Raw Photos."

Click publish.

This time, Shi Ningwei wasn't even in the mood to verify if it would be deleted again. He said in the QQ group: "I posted the photos on the blog, download them if you want," and then went straight to sleep. He slept groggily until noon before waking up.

This sleep wasn't good. In his dream, he was fighting a fierce battle with a divine beast, but unexpectedly, he was no match at all and was torn into 404 pieces by the other party. He wasn't young anymore, in his 30s, and he had basically pulled an all-nighter yesterday. After waking up, he felt weak all over, but his return ticket was already booked for 3:00 PM, so he had to get up.

After washing up, he habitually opened the computer, intending to take a look at his blog messages before shutting down and going to the airport.

And then he saw the latest post he had made.

130,021 clicks, 1,204 comments, 228 reposts, 601 collections.

150,000-word test push, haha~ Everyone, have time to click on the latest chapters today and tomorrow, thank you.
