Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

There is a proverb in the north that people will not leave even if they are beaten or scolded during the coldest days of the year. This means that this period is the coldest time of the year, and people would rather be beaten or scolded than go out and suffer the cold.

Now, in mid-January, Kyoto is in the coldest days of the year. This winter is much colder than in previous years. At a temperature of minus 20 degrees, even if people wear down jackets and cover themselves tightly, the cold air can't stop drilling into their bodies.

"How long will it take to enter the theater?"

"About two hours."

Nie Wei stood in front of the window on the third floor of the cinema, watching the breath of the fans who were already standing in the waiting area below formed a cloud of mist, frowned slightly, and then told Luo Kai beside him: "Go buy some milk tea and send it to the fans downstairs."

"Okay." Luo Kai nodded and agreed, turned around and went out to buy milk tea.

Ten minutes later, Luo Kai brought the first batch of fifty cups of milk tea to the waiting area where the fans were.

"Uncle Luo!" As soon as Luo Kai approached the waiting area, many of Nie Wei's fans recognized the manager and immediately cheered enthusiastically.

"Just call me brother." After chatting with these familiar fans, Luo Kai also asked the staff behind him to distribute the milk tea: "Nie Wei asked me to buy it for you. It's all hot. Don't rush to drink it. It's a little hot. Warm your hands first and drink it after it cools down."

The sudden cup of milk tea may be worth only a few dollars, but it instantly warmed the hearts of these fans. They were already shivering from the cold. After taking the milk tea, the warmth in their hands seemed to instantly spread throughout their bodies, driving away the cold. Although they knew that this was largely an illusion, the warmth in their hearts was real. Some sentimental girls were even moved to tears when they took the milk tea.

As the leader of the fan club and the organizer of this viewing group, Jing Han has been helping Luo Kai. When everyone got the milk tea, Jing Han took his own cup of milk tea, and the milk tea that was boiling hot at the beginning had already cooled down.

"Uncle Luo Kai, please tell Nie Wei to cheer for us. We will always support him." Jing Han said in a trembling voice, holding the milk tea that still had a trace of residual heat.

"Don't worry, I will definitely pass on the message." Luo Kai didn't care about the title of "uncle", but promised with a smile. This is the cuteness of fans. Their efforts are often unrequited, so pure.

"Nie Wei bought them milk tea."

"I'm so envious."

"Don't be envious, their idol is rich."

The scene of Nie Wei sending milk tea to fans naturally fell into the eyes of other fans and reporters around him. There were envious people and jealous people. With these strange looks, Nie Wei's fans all puffed out their chests, not to mention how proud they were. Some people even deliberately made noises when drinking milk tea, or sighed a few words about how delicious the milk tea was. The purpose of showing off could not be concealed at all.

Soon Luo Kai also returned to Nie Wei's room, and by the way, he also told him the encouragement that Jing Han brought to him on behalf of the fans.

Nie Wei smiled happily. Speaking of it, since his debut, Nie Wei is most proud of this group of fans. Their unity is famous in the circle, and even the entire entertainment industry envies Nie Wei for having such a group of loyal fans.

After all, the biggest value of a star, besides himself and his works, is his fans. This is why Nie Wei was able to enjoy the treatment of a first-tier star before he entered the first-tier star stage. It was because of the strong support from his lovely fans. This is a force that many people cannot ignore.

Of course, this support is mutual. Nie Wei is also very attentive in giving back to his fans. In addition to his continuous release of excellent works that make his fans proud of him, his attitude towards his fans is also difficult for many stars to match. Few idols can do what Nie Wei does. The distance between him and his fans is very close. Even when some fans get married in real life, Nie Wei will specially pack a red envelope and send it to them. When the fan posted this matter on the Internet, it caused a lot of heated discussions.

Looking at the fans who were freezing outside the window, Nie Wei finally decided to hold the premiere red carpet 20 minutes earlier.

As the leading stars and special guests entered the venue one by one, Nie Wei also asked the theater to open the lobby and check tickets in advance. The premiere time will not be changed, but it is still possible to let the audience enter earlier.

"I'm freezing to death. Luckily I came in early. If I had stayed out for another half an hour, I probably wouldn't even be able to press the camera." A reporter rubbed his hands and complained. This damn weather really added a lot of burden to his work.

"Don't complain. We are also relying on the fans." Another reporter was obviously a wise man. From the scene of Nie Wei sending milk tea just now, he knew that Nie Wei was obviously worried about his fans, so he opened the venue in advance.

"Of course I know, but Nie Wei is really good at winning people's hearts. Did you see that a few girls almost cried when they received the milk tea just now? I even took a few photos on purpose."

"I don't know whether he can win people's hearts, but Nie Wei is still quite humane."

"Yeah, that's right."

The reporters talked about Nie Wei, and the fans also talked about Nie Wei, but they didn't hold so many messy speculations. They were all excitedly looking forward to Nie Wei's movie and talking about the cup of milk tea that Nie Wei sent just now.

"This is definitely the best milk tea I've ever had in my life." A round-faced girl said confidently. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, so she didn't know where to get the words "in this life".

Although the logic of this statement was a bit problematic, it was quite popular. Many of his friends immediately nodded in agreement.

"It's really delicious. I don't usually drink milk tea, but I drank a cup today."

"Yeah, I think Nie Wei must have added more milk to our milk tea, otherwise how could it be so fragrant."

"Will some of your cups of milk tea be brewed by Nie Wei himself?"

When a little girl made this guess, she found that the breathing of her friends around her became obviously heavier, and their eyes were full of excitement. They were silent for a few seconds at first, but soon everyone came back to their senses from this wonderful fantasy and began to chatter and guess that their cup was brewed by Nie Wei, completely turning the question raised by the little girl into a real reality.

"Nie Wei can make milk tea, you really think too much." I don't know whose fans this is, but she has been listening to the words of these girls. It seems that she couldn't help but make a provocative remark out of jealousy.

Of course, she didn't think her words were provocative, but just stated a fact. After all, a big star like Nie Wei is about to hold the premiere of his first film as a director. How could he have time to make milk tea? But his words were a provocation to Nie Wei's fans.

"How do you know our brother didn't do it?"

"That's right, you didn't even receive the milk tea, why do you doubt our brother."

"Speak with evidence, you were in the milk tea shop the whole time, do you know whether our brother went there or not? What if he went there?"

"You said it's just a matter of time!" The fan was a little anxious. He didn't expect that his casual words would be bombarded by so many girls immediately. He felt a little overwhelmed for a while, and couldn't help but defend himself: "He is a big star, so busy..."

"But he still cares about us even though he is so busy."

"That's right."

"You are just jealous."

"Hmph, don't pay attention to such people."

Except for the first word, the boy didn't say a complete sentence from beginning to end. He was sprayed with cold sweat by several girls and was despised in the end.

"Wait, if this movie is bad, even if my goddess is the leading actress, I will give a bad review, wait!" The boy didn't dare to speak, so he had to hide his angry thoughts in his heart.

But he couldn't bear it. He wanted to give it one star at first, but five minutes later he was thinking about whether to give it two or three stars. When there were ten minutes left before the premiere, his rating had reached four stars. He even made excuses for himself. After all, he had his goddess. Four stars were for goddesses. At worst, he could just leave a review to criticize the movie...

Nie Wei didn't know that there was a boy who had no moral integrity. At this moment, he was sitting in the box, talking with the film's creators about the upcoming movie.

"Director Nie, I'm a little nervous." Just now, when talking about everyone's current mood, Xu Zheng was the first to laugh: "Don't look at my age, but I'm really a rookie in the film industry. If I count by the works, I should call you a senior."

"Don't worry, Teacher Xu, you are just trying to scare me." Nie Wei waved his hands repeatedly when he heard this, then smiled and pointed at Shu Chang and Wu Lei beside him, and then pointed at himself, and said self-deprecatingly: "The four of us are actually rookies. I am a rookie director, and you are all rookies in the film industry. But although we are rookies, the works we shoot are not bad. Everyone has seen it, and I am very confident."

"Me too!" Shu Chang immediately raised his hand and said: "I laughed the whole time. I thought the script was very funny, and I was happy enough when I was acting. I didn't expect that the edited film would be even funnier."

"I am also very confident about this." Xu Zheng also smiled and echoed.

As his first comedy movie after becoming famous, he attaches great importance to quality. However, this script moved him almost the first time he read it, and made him feel moved. Therefore, even though Nie Wei was just a rookie director, Xu Zheng joined the crew without hesitation.

After watching the final film a few days ago, he did not regret his original choice. In his opinion, if such a good movie does not succeed, it would be a miracle.

Unlike the confident creators, the reporters below hold two extreme ideas.

One is that after watching the trailer, they think it is quite interesting and have a good impression of the film, while the other is that they hold prejudices and think that the rookie script written by a rookie director like Nie Wei will definitely be a mess.

"This movie is going to flop. I tell you, Huayi has a 99% chance of losing 15 million yuan."

"That's not certain. Maybe that 1% will come out. You've seen the trailer before. It's quite interesting."

"A well-edited trailer doesn't mean the movie is good. You're too young as a newcomer. You don't understand."

Two reporters from different newspapers were standing next to each other. It was only a few minutes before the movie was released, but they had a quarrel over predicting the quality of the movie.

The reporter who supported Nie Wei was very dissatisfied and said directly: "Do you dare to bet? I say Nie Wei's movie will not lose money at the box office."

"He has so many fans, and he may not lose money just by using his fans. I won't bet." The reporter who was pessimistic about Nie Wei was very cunning and would not agree to such a bet at all. After all, Nie Wei was well-known in the circle for his box office appeal, and his group of fans supported him like crazy. He would not agree to such a bet.

"Then add one more thing. I bet that this movie will have a good reputation and box office. One thousand yuan, do you dare?" The reporter who supported Nie Wei was furious and directly increased the stakes.

Hearing the bet of win-win reputation and box office, the reporter who was pessimistic about Nie Wei was also moved. In his opinion, Nie Wei was a rookie director. It was already a great achievement to make back the investment. He also wanted to win word of mouth. This was not easy. After all, there were more people watching movies. Compared with the general public, even if his fans supported him, it was impossible to turn a bad movie into a good one.

"I bet!" Gritting his teeth, thinking that he would most likely earn an extra thousand yuan in two hours, the reporter who was pessimistic about Nie Wei finally couldn't suppress his inner desire and agreed to the bet.

Moreover, he seemed to be afraid that the reporter who supported Nie Wei would go back on his word, so he even asked his colleagues who were watching the excitement nearby to be witnesses. For this, they even took out their press cards, as if they were afraid that the other party would run away.

"Wait to lose." The reporter who was pessimistic about Nie Wei said with a smile.

"Nie Wei has never disappointed his fans." The reporter who was optimistic about Nie Wei answered this sentence coldly, and then turned his attention back to the big screen, because the film was about to start in less than a minute.

A few dozen seconds later, as the lights of the theater dimmed, the originally noisy screening room soon became quiet. As the big screen lit up, everyone felt refreshed. Nie Wei's debut work was finally going to be tested by the public.

After the dragon logo of the Film Bureau and the cloud logo of Huayi, the film slowly unfolded with a leisurely blues.

The picture shows a home, a home with exquisite decoration and sentiment, but at first glance it is definitely a home for singles, a pair of slippers, a dinner plate, a toothbrush and towel, etc., all of which hint at the current life and emotional status of the owner of this home.

As the scenes of each home were shown, the singing gradually died down, and then it cut to a live broadcast room that was obviously a radio station. The first protagonist of the movie, Xu Zheng, finally appeared in person, wearing a formal suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. At this time, Xu Zheng looked a little handsome.

However, as the live broadcast continued, Xu Zheng's handsome appearance, which had not stayed in the audience's mind for too long, was immediately drowned out by laughter.

Thanks to 0773 for the generous reward!
