Chapter 9 Going to Liu Yifei's House
Around 8 p.m., Chen Zhou returned to his rented room.
I saw that many classmates sent me QQ messages.
It was said to be his graduation project, which went viral after someone took a picture of it and posted it online.
His graduation project was being discussed, especially on the school forum.
They've already praised Chen Zhou to the skies.
Some even say that Chen Zhou will be the most outstanding new director at the Beijing Film Academy in recent years.
Chen Zhou went online to take a look.
I've noticed that many people are asking for the original footage of the graduation short film.
There has been a lot of discussion about the graduation short film.
"You're telling me this is just a short film by a directing graduate? I thought I was watching a movie."
"What I find incredible is that I always thought Liu Yifei's Zhao Ling'er was unbeatable, but under this director's lens, I suddenly realized that Liu Yifei's modern image is also amazing. This director is so talented!"
"The camerawork... after watching it, I thought it was directed by some big-name director, but then I glanced at the director's name, and... who is Chen Zhou?"
"Chen Zhou, right? When are you going to make a movie? Chinese directors need fresh blood."
Looking at these comments, Chen Zhou thought to himself that although the current internet penetration rate is not particularly high, it has already taken shape.
Being able to promote your work online is definitely a good thing.
So he uploaded the original video directly to the internet.
The girls' dormitory at Beijing Film Academy.
Yang Mi and others from the 05 undergraduate class of the Performing Arts Department are watching their graduation video.
Zhang Xiaofei: "The filming is really good. No wonder it made all the senior students on set cry."
Yuan Shanshan: "This senior brother Chen Zhou actually managed to invite Liu Yifei to act. I wonder what his background is. He's really handsome, and his directing skills are so amazing. He's too perfect."
Compared to all this, Yang Mi simply sighed, "It's a pity I didn't have the chance to get to know him before."
It will be a little later.
The Nanjing Nanjing film crew.
At this moment, Gao Yuanyuan and Qin Lan, who were resting, had already seen the graduation short film that was going viral online through trending topics.
Gao Yuanyuan: "Lanlan, look how well this graduation short film is made!"
Qin Lan: "It was indeed very well shot. The camerawork is very comfortable to watch, and it's clear that this isn't a new director."
"But I heard that this director is a freshman in the directing department of Beijing Film Academy and has not made any works before."
"Really?" Qin Lan was incredulous. In her opinion, this level of camera work was extraordinary.
"Really, look at this news, it's about this freshman in the directing department, named Chen Zhou, and he's quite handsome." Gao Yuanyuan looked at the photo on her phone.
Qin Lan leaned forward for a closer look.
I discovered that Chen Zhou is indeed very handsome.
Even in the entertainment industry, where handsome men and beautiful women are everywhere, a handsome man with striking features like his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes is enough to catch her eye.
"What are you two doing?" Lu Chuan walked over from not far away.
"I didn't do anything, I just saw a really impressive graduation video online," Qin Lan said.
"A graduation video? Let me see it," Lu Chuan said.
Qin Lan then handed the phone to Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan read it carefully and then gave her evaluation.
"This director's camerawork is amazing. You guys aren't directors, so you might not be able to tell the difference."
"But as a professional director, I can tell at a glance that this level of camerawork is extremely top-notch."
This was Lu Chuan's heartfelt praise.
Gao Yuanyuan and Qin Lan nodded, both agreeing.
"By the way, who filmed this graduation short film?" Lu Chuan asked.
"One named Chen Zhou," Gao Yuanyuan said.
"What? Chen Zhou?" Lu Chuan felt a jolt in her heart when she heard this name.
He thought it must just be a coincidence, and it couldn't possibly be the Chen Zhou he knew.
At this point, Gao Yuanyuan continued, "Scroll down, there's a photo of him at the scene."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan quickly looked down.
He was stunned when he saw it.
He truly hadn't expected that the Chen Zhou Gao Yuanyuan was talking about was the same person he knew.
Gao Yuanyuan noticed Lu Chuan's unusual expression and asked, "What's wrong? Director, do you know him?"
"Ha!" Lu Chuan scoffed coldly. "This guy used to be part of our crew, but I kicked him out before filming even started. He's nothing."
Upon hearing this, Gao Yuanyuan and Qin Lan exchanged bewildered glances.
Just a moment ago, Lu Chuan praised the other person's graduation short film.
How can you belittle people like this now?
But Gao Yuanyuan certainly wouldn't dare to speak; this was Lu Chuan's film crew, and she was just an actress.
However, Qin Lan said directly, "Director Lu Chuan, why did you kick such a talented person out? Wouldn't it be better to keep him in our crew?"
Gao Yuanyuan, who was standing to the side, was not surprised that Qin Lan dared to ask so directly.
After all, the entire crew now knows that Lu Chuan wants to pursue Qin Lan.
Therefore, Qin Lan was naturally fearless.
"This Chen Zhou, maybe his camerawork is passable, but his aesthetic sense of film art is terrible. I don't need to keep a guy like him in our crew." Lu Chuan finished speaking and left.
"Lanlan, don't you think Director Lu Chuan has some kind of inexplicable hostility towards Chen Zhou?" Gao Yuanyuan asked in a low voice.
"Sigh." Qin Lan sighed, "More than that, I just want to say that it's a shame that a handsome guy like him isn't in our crew."
"You wouldn't be lusting after her, would you?" Gao Yuanyuan teased.
"Get lost, you're the one who's lusting after men. I just think that our crew is mostly made up of veteran actors, so there should be some young, handsome guys," Qin Lan said.
Gao Yuanyuan smiled silently and said nothing more.
The following afternoon, around 1 p.m.
There is some good news.
The video Chen Zhou uploaded last night has garnered over a million views across multiple platforms.
At present, this has already become a viral sensation across the entire internet!
An hour later, Chen Zhou arrived in front of a luxurious villa.
This is Liu Yifei's home.
A short while later, Liu Yifei, dressed in casual clothes, ran out of the villa.
"Junior! Did you know your graduation project went viral online? I became famous along with you!" Liu Yifei said with a smile.
"Senior sister, you were already very popular," Chen Zhou replied.
"Oh, let's not talk about that. Junior brother, come in quickly, I'll show you around my house."
As soon as Chen Zhou entered the hall, he saw Liu Yifei's mother, Liu Xiaoli, sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed.
She was looking at him with a relatively wary gaze.
It was as if he was worried that he would run away with Liu Yifei.
Apart from that, Liu Xiaoli did not show any disgust.
After all, people know that Chen Zhou's graduation video has gone viral online.
Chen Zhou did indeed put in a lot of effort in promoting his daughter's modern image.
"Sisi, you can't let boys into your room, but you can show him around other places," Liu Xiaoli said.
"I understand," Liu Yifei replied.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yifei took Chen Zhou on a tour of her home.
He looked quite excited.
After they had finished shopping, the two sat down in the lobby.
Liu Yifei took out the script of "The Forbidden Kingdom" and pointed to the parts she was unclear about, asking for help: "Junior brother, could you please take a look at these parts and tell me what tone of voice to use for the lines? I'm not quite sure what to say."
Chen Zhou took the script and read it for a while.
Just as I was about to explain, my phone suddenly rang.
I glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.
Without much thought, he answered the call.
"Feed? Who?"
"Hello, I'm Liu Dehua," the person on the other end said.
Chen Zhou was silent for a moment, then replied, "Are you Liu Dehua? I am Qin Shi Huang!"
