Chapter 232: Slipped Hand? Wrong Account? Chi Ye: I Did It On Purpose
Wu Zhenyu was stunned, then suddenly sighed in realization.
Yeah, how could I forget about this.
Chi Ye first became famous with Jian Ni, but he truly rose to fame with Reboot and Circulation.
Both of these works were personally handled by him.
Chi Ye’s achievements in music are already beyond words: five Golden Melody Awards, which set a record for Mainland singers and even match the terrifying miracle of local Heavenly Kings and Heavenly Queens in Taiwan.
—Even after Chi Ye won the Golden Melody Awards, his fans, music fans, and even his team have been urging him to hold a “global concert.”
But due to being too busy, Chi Ye has been putting off this announcement. It can be expected that once he holds the global concert, Chi Ye Studio will usher in another “scamming for money season.”
As for film and television, the Reboot Xing Ni Big Shot trilogy has different directors, but the screenwriter for all is Chi Ye himself.
Why say Chi Ye has the chance to “form his own system and circle”?
Because the projects on him already faintly show a trend of “screenwriter centric system.”
As everyone knows, screenwriters in Internal Entertainment Circle have always had very low status.
This is caused by multiple reasons, and the biggest root is that screenwriters have no capital and no influence.
But Chi Ye has capital; the combination of talent + capital is the foundation for him to make every film a success.
On him, there is a shadow of the Korean entertainment screenwriter centric system, but because of his personal unrivaled top streamer status in Xing Ni and overwhelming star halo, many people subconsciously forget his other labels.
“Once he gets this Golden Rooster Screenwriter award, Chi Ye’s self-written projects will completely become hot cakes.”
Below the stage.
Looking at Chi Ye taking the stage for the second time, Xu Zheng shook his head and evaluated: “Overflowing with talent.”
Hearing this, Huang Bo didn’t speak; he actually envied the current Chi Ye a bit, because many actors transition successfully to directing, but few transition successfully to screenwriting… He had tried it and achieved good results, but didn’t win an award.
“Two Golden Roosters, and ‘cross-industry’ two, this kid is interesting.”
Others nodded too, some with unpleasant expressions, because they were either related to Yue Na or from the Hua Yi faction.
After this Golden Rooster Awards, the film circle did inject a lot of “fresh blood,” but they really couldn’t stand this fresh blood; disgusting.
……
This time on stage, Chi Ye didn’t say much, because he was receiving the award as “behind-the-scenes” personnel; what needed to be said was already said earlier. At the end, he still didn’t forget to thank Empress Dowager.
“Many people probably know that the major shareholder of our studio is Jin Xia, so I really thank Jin Xia for ‘having a keen eye’ back then… cough, I should count, right?”
Chi Ye smiled and raised the trophy in his hand, bowed and said: “Also thank Guang Ying Shi Meng Company, and all members of the Big Shot film crew. It was everyone’s joint effort that created the work Big Shot. Thank you everyone.”
He bowed and stepped down, and applause rang out at the scene.
Hong Kong, Guangying Shimen Company.
Jin Sui, who didn’t arrive at the scene, watched this, smiled at the corner of her mouth, and sighed to Zhang Jie: “My eyesight is indeed good.”
Zhang Jie: “……Yes, you are the one with the keenest eye.”
“Hey, can’t say that, Xia Xia also has credit.”
Aunt composed: “Mainly we know how to spot people.”
Zhang Jie: “Yes, I think so too.”
“Mm…”
Jin Sui looked at Chi Ye stepping down, and the ongoing Golden Rooster Awards; the camera just cut to today’s biggest protagonist—Zhu Yao Lin.
Golden Rooster Movie Emperor…
She pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: “Has Big Shot been submitted for Hong Kong Film Award?”
“Not yet, submissions start next month.”
Zhang Jie paused, already knowing what color history her aunt wanted to pull: “Submit Chi Ye for Best Actor then?”
“Among Mainland male actors, only Brother Li and Lu Xiao Ming have won Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor… Brother Li’s identity is also very special… Hong Kong Film Award’s value is much higher than Golden Rooster.”
Zhang Jie nodded: “Indeed, if he can win Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor, Chi Ye basically won’t lack anything.”
“……Operate it, our own turf can’t be outdone by Golden Rooster.”
Jin Sui waved her hand decisively, having made the decision.
……
Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor.
One of the three major Chinese awards; when Chi Ye won Best Supporting Actor at Golden Rooster Awards, his level and prestige were actually still a tier below Zhu Yao Lin and Si Zi.
Although he also got the Golden Rooster Screenwriter award that could almost be stuck to his forehead to prove how awesome his talent is, the attention for actor personal awards and behind-the-scenes awards is ultimately different.
Of course, this matter is a bit different on Chi Ye.
Because he is not an ordinary screenwriter; his strength now is that other young actors are on single tracks, but he develops in film, television, and music, and each track is developing freakishly well.
Golden Rooster Screenwriter on an ordinary behind-the-scenes screenwriter boosts their influence and star power in the circle.
But on Chi Ye, it’s a blatant carnival for career fans; it can really attract countless bystander fans and plate another layer of halo on his talent.
But…
Still that sentence, a bit short on level and taste.
Movie Emperor; what Chi Ye needs now is a high-value Movie Emperor.
Golden Rooster doesn’t give it, Golden Horse probably no hope, but Hong Kong Film Award can be operated.
One of Big Shot’s production companies is Guangying Shimen, and Aunt is called Hong Kong Little Prince, so for other Mainland male artists, the almost impossible Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor has great hope of operation for Chi Ye.
Chi Ye doesn’t know yet that Big Shot has decided to submit “Zhao Tai” for Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor, but even if he knew, he wouldn’t be surprised.
Hong Kong and Mainland environments differ; historically multiple villain roles have won Movie Emperor. As the saying goes, local conditions breed local people; Zhao Tai is “unwelcome” in Mainland, but the situation is exactly reversed in Hong Kong.
At this moment.
As heavy awards like Movie Emperor, Best Supporting Actor, Film Empress, Best Supporting Actress go to their winners, the Golden Rooster Awards climax is over halfway, still ongoing.
Chi Ye sat in his seat, quietly waiting for the award ceremony to end.
Meanwhile.
Outside.
Regarding the various “film circle new nobles” just produced by this Golden Rooster Awards, various teams, companies, and fans have already started carnival and feuds.
First, today’s biggest protagonist is still Zhu Yao Lin; Zhu Yao Lin’s fans were almost happily fainting today, and the company behind Zhu Movie Emperor smashed big money; hot search terms like #Zhu Yao Lin Golden Rooster Movie Emperor# and #Well Deserved# have exploded Weibo hot search and Douyin hot list.
Close behind are #Lin Yang Qianrui Narrowly Lost##Black Curtain##Ten Moments of Lin Yang Qianrui’s Explosive Acting#.
Lin Yang Qianrui’s fans are much crazier than Zhu Yao Lin’s; the two sides tore all the way, Si Zi’s fans hated Zhu Yao Lin’s “thief” behavior of stealing the Movie Emperor, while Zhu Yao Lin fans shouted Si Zi blow whatever, can’t afford to lose.
Between these two top streamers, it’s Chi Ye’s hot words, and the style is completely different from the two.
All are hot words like #Chi Ye Golden Rooster Best Supporting Actor# #Chi Ye Screenwriter# #Talent#.
Below the comments, Chi Ye’s fans and bystanders are in carnival.
「Golden Rooster Screenwriter well deserved! Big Shot’s story and small details aside, the ending is godlike.」
「Can I say I just found out that Xing Ni and Big Shot were both written by Chi Ye… too exaggerated, bro, with this face and this talent, you don’t seem human at all!」
「Don’t awkwardly black, Ye Zi has many shortcomings, his mouth is just coated with honey.」
「Pure passerby, searched Chi Ye’s works because of this Golden Rooster Awards, then I was dumbfounded, buddy, Circulation Xing Ni Big Shot, all yours?!」
「First person to self-write and self-act, Internal Entertainment Circle traffic king + talent king, those two above tearing disgustingly, Chi Ye is simply a breath of fresh air.」
「Educating new fans: Ye Zi’s strongest isn’t scripts, it’s his singing skill and lyric writing composition ability, Blue and White Porcelain know it? Also, my bro’s works are basically all done solo by himself.」
「God! Man who combines appearance, talent, ability; only after following Chi Ye did I realize other traffic are just rotten fish and shrimp.」
While Zhu Yao Lin and Si Zi’s heads were beaten into dog heads, Chi Ye’s “Golden Rooster Screenwriter” is indeed like a breath of fresh air. As Jin Sui expected, Chi Ye winning acting award Best Supporting Actor, everyone just “oh, Zhao Tai indeed works.”
But Chi Ye winning Golden Rooster Screenwriter, many bystanders didn’t even pay attention to screenwriter names before, only now realizing everything was written by Chi Ye himself!
This bro is too awesome!
Self-promoting oneself, understand?
In a moment, due to this “grave-digging wave,” plus Chi Ye’s own unrivaled traffic, soon Chi Ye’s personal topic hot search actually suppressed the feud heat of Zhu Yao Lin and Si Zi.
Whatever Golden Rooster Movie Emperor, Movie Emperor you’re awesome, but in traffic, indeed not enough.
Chi Ye starts “ascension.”
Below, various media, even Douban official, list Chi Ye’s upcoming, preparing, even unannounced gossip works one by one.
Upcoming movies: Girl, Influenza.
Upcoming crews: Ghost, Mars Rescue, and Unnamed Sci-Fi Film Unnamed Spy Drama etc.
Note: Screenwriter for most above projects is Chi Ye himself.
Originally, this is normal eye-catching traffic-riding marketing, insiders call it “fake pie,” but can’t resist Chi Ye’s current traffic being too high, and his works all become hits once aired.
So, countless little flowers and young actors’ teams start “licking pies” under various media and Chi Ye’s Weibo.
—Mainly little flowers, female artists; little flowers green robes now have obviously unrivaled interest in Chi Ye over others… Zhu Yao Lin and Si Zi don’t work.
Because Chi Ye can now “make pies” himself, and traffic explodes.
「Bro, look at my sis! My sis Golden Eagle Best Supporting Actress + Baihua Best Supporting Actress, very suitable for Ghost’s female lead!」
「Glanced at Mars Rescue’s Douban intro, feels the female lead role very suitable for Ling Han.」
「Can Ling Han fans stop licking, talking nonsense with eyes open? This role clearly suits Li Bao, Li Qian and Ye Zi cooperated before, have chemistry.」
「Lu Lanxin really works! Lanxin said in several interviews, favorite in circle is Teacher Chi Ye, hopes to cooperate with Teacher Chi Ye!」
「Lu Lanxin fans don’t come near, in terms of relationship Weiwei cooperated on how many songs with Chi Ye? Don’t embarrass your main one, begging?」
「Sister Shang fans laugh without speaking, Girl in hand, watch the feud… Anyway even a passerby like me is dying of laughter, just lazy dog Shang Youshu does nothing and gets to cooperate with Chi Ye, other female artists must be pissed.」
「Sheng Ning even cooperated with Chi Ye, what is impossible?」
「Don’t drag my sis, Teacher Chi Ye is nice, role fits, we “helped” Teacher Chi Ye before.」
「Sheng Ning fans Sichuan opera face change haha, I still like your arrogant look back then, wasn’t it “Chi Ye riding star power don’t come near”?」
Various little flowers, green robes start licking pies, and similar situations in circle happen occasionally, but mostly on Guoshi, Wu Jing etc. famous directors, or super first-tier big stars, at worst drama circle hit drama teams.
Similar licking single actor’s pies is truly unprecedented—similar for Zhu Yao Lin Si Zi’s projects, people lick too, but privately, and licking intensity more subtle; commotion this big is indeed a spectacle.
And in this licking pie atmosphere, one fanbase is unhappy.
「Everyone back off a bit, didn’t you hear Teacher Chi say? Xia Xia is Chi Ye Studio’s major shareholder, want to lick pie lick the right person, lick what Chi Ye, all come lick Jin Xia!」
Various teams dumbfounded.
Golden Rooster Awards scene.
Empress Dowager was quite displeased “patrolling” this heat, suddenly spotted this comment, immediately delighted, kuku liked + reposted + commented triple.
Yes, she commented:
「Sister you’re so right, support Xia Xia, support #Chi Pan Xia Yu# second collaboration!」
Result not long after posting, her Weibo @ notification sound like New Year firecrackers, buzzing non-stop.
—Bad, I won’t become Sister Shang, right?
Empress Dowager shocked, clicked to see, indeed found she forgot to switch to alt account just now.
#Jin Xia Likes Comments Chi Pan Xia Yu Second Collab#
#So This Is You Jin Xia#
Related hot words explode hot search list, bad hot searches also pour in—#Drama Queen Day# #Jin Xia Deliberate# #Jin Xia Clinging# #Riding Popularity Shameless#
I deliberate… ha, I deliberate…
Empress Dowager saw the black hot searches flourishing as imagined, got so angry her little face reddened, didn’t care Golden Rooster Awards still live broadcasting, picked up phone to reply.
Result just after editing a Weibo message, saw Weibo official push her a hot search entry—
#Chi Ye Accidentally Posts 10 Chi Pan Xia Yu Second Tower Weibo#
#Chi Ye Replies Jin Xia: I Did It on Purpose.#
Empress Dowager suddenly looked up, met Chi Ye’s smiling eyes.
His eyes carried a smile, even deliberately winked at her, mouthed: “Boss don’t be angry.”
Jin Xia: “……”
Her mood suddenly improved, hummed and muttered: “I am clinging, I like it, what business of yours……”
