Chapter 261 is an adult, and also my lover.
On the day of the official announcement, Yan Zhuoyu posted a photo of the two of them on her Weibo account, and then quickly returned to the film crew to continue filming, as if the official announcement was just a casual thing.
The popularity of the Zhuoye super topic continues to rise, but the two main characters are busy with work, so the CP fans can only wait anxiously, watching Teacher Lie produce content, afraid that they will not be able to save the pictures if they are too slow.
In October, Yan Zhuoyu was nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Horse Awards again for her role in "Sword Chant". Although the award ultimately went to a senior actress, the experience of being nominated twice and winning once made her more mature and composed.
This also made her acutely aware that the gap between her and her predecessors in the film industry is still significant. After all, the Hundred Flowers Awards rely more on audience appeal, and her win was partly due to factors other than acting skills.
After figuring this out, Yan Zhuoyu became even more dedicated during filming, seizing every opportunity to ask senior members of the crew and the director for advice on acting. These were rare free learning opportunities, so she decided to take advantage of them.
Before we knew it, the year was coming to an end. Yan Zhuoyu had almost completed her plans for the year, filming six movies and participating in several variety shows and talk shows. Her schedule was packed.
When using her own savings to distribute personal year-end bonuses to her agent, assistant, and other staff, Yan Zhuoyu confidently promised her agent, "Sister Qiao, next year's schedule can be even tighter; maybe we can film another movie."
She was determined to make a name for herself in the film industry.
This ambition scared away Qiao Xinyun, the "Queen of Currying," who dared not even bother with her own currying. She didn't want to be involved in news of exploiting artists and causing them to overwork themselves so soon after entering the industry.
Qiao Xinyun patted Miss Yan's head like she was picking out a watermelon: "My dear Your Majesty, there's no alcohol in the air, so why are you already feeling tipsy?"
She earnestly advised her artists: "We need to be steady and take it slow. We need to be selective in choosing films and not try to win by quantity. Constantly showing your face to the audience can actually make them lose interest. In short, it's similar to scarcity marketing. You need to make the audience look forward to your new works, instead of seeing you and thinking, 'Why is it you again?'"
"Now that you've won the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award, and have been nominated for the Golden Horse Award, you have a very good chance of winning the Golden Horse Award next year, and maybe you can even compete for the Hong Kong Film Award."
Yan Zhuoyu felt that Qiao Xinyun's words made a lot of sense.
She had just given her husband a formal title, and the wedding preparations hadn't even begun.
If time isn't so tight next year, she and Pei Weijin will have more time together, and the matter of having a second wedding can be put on the agenda.
After her contract expired, Yan Zhuoyu left Liteng Film and Television and returned to her own company, taking with her several capable assistants, including Qiao Xinyun, thus gaining a great deal of freedom in her work.
While screening scripts, Qiao Xinyun suddenly asked, "After you and President Pei went public with your relationship, many programs such as couple interviews and dating reality shows invited you to participate. For example, the super popular show 'Love Journey Puzzle' from last year is preparing for its second season. Would you consider bringing President Pei on a variety show together?"
Yan Zhuoyu lay on the table, her soft cheeks pressed against her arm, her clear voice sounding muffled: "I've thought about this before, but I haven't had the chance to."
"Hmm?" Qiao Xinyun continued to look through the emails in her inbox and casually asked, "Is it because he's too busy with work and can't find the time? It seems so. You often say he's on business trips. He only came to visit the set when he was filming 'The Daily Life of Small Town Youth Returning to the Countryside to Farm'."
Although I only visited the set once, it was enough to shock Qiao Xinyun for a thousand years.
"Daily Life of a Small-Town Youth Returning to His Hometown to Farm" is a film about helping farmers, shot in remote rural areas and underdeveloped villages.
Perhaps it's true that once bitten, twice shy, Pei Weijin postponed all other work during the entire filming period to stay with Yan Zhuoyu in order to prevent a repeat of the Xin Nanshan incident.
The number of bodyguards accompanying the filming even exceeded that of the villagers, creating a spectacular scene. It happened to be the autumn harvest season, and the bodyguards not only did not affect the filming schedule, but also helped the villagers with their work.
Shortly after filming ended, Yan Zhuoyu and Pei Weijin jointly donated funds to build two Hope Primary Schools.
Adhering to the idea that "to get rich, build roads first," they also funded road construction for the villagers, solving the problem of children going to school in the county town.
Yan Zhuoyu and Qiao Xinyun explained, "It's not because he's too busy with work. He's now mostly handled his overseas business through agents and rarely travels. When I'm on vacation, we either go out together or stay at home. Last time we went out..."
Seeing that she was about to start talking about her sweet daily life in love again, Qiao Xinyun made a stop gesture with a toothache: "Stop, stop, no more feeding us dog food!"
Yan Zhuoyu smiled gently, then sat up, resting her hands on her chin like flowers, and said wistfully, "Sigh, variety shows are meant to make the audience relax and focus on making people laugh. Pei Weijin is a very composed and reserved person in public, and viewers who don't know him might gossip when they first see him. Besides, most of the guests on the show are from the entertainment industry, and he doesn't know anyone. If I don't have time to pay attention to him sometimes, or if I accidentally overlook him, I'm worried he'll be unhappy."
Qiao Xinyun tilted her head, looking at her dismissively, and said, "It's not that serious, is it? We're both adults, why worry so much about such a small thing?"
Qiu Tong listened quietly to the sound of her voice, while stroking her newly received year-end bonus—a car worth 20 yuan.
Yan Zhuoyu propped her head up with her hand, her fair fingers deftly twirling the pen: "He's an adult, and he's also my lover. A healthy relationship should make both parties feel happy and relaxed. If you sacrifice your lover's reputation and feelings for the sake of fame, then the relationship is no longer pure."
Her gaze fell again on the program introduction of "Love's Journey Puzzle", and her tone revealed a hint of longing: "I quite like this journey arrangement. There are many places I have never been to before."
Seeing this, Qiao Xinyun pressed her advantage, saying, "Then go back and ask. Maybe you're worrying for nothing. If you two don't show some affection, netizens will say that your marriage is a loveless union."
Qiu Tong, having had her fill of admiring her little car, eagerly offered suggestions: "I saw that Teacher Xie Fu and her man are on the list. What if they agree to participate in the show? And Director Fu, maybe he'll be invited by netizens to be an observation guest. These are all friends of President Pei."
Just then, Yan Zhuoyu's phone screen suddenly lit up.
Without even looking at who was calling, she stuck her pen into the pen holder, stood up abruptly, grabbed her bag, waved her hand, and said nonchalantly, "My husband's here to pick me up. I'll go ask him what he thinks. Maybe I can give you an answer in a bit."
Qiao Xinyun said goodbye to Yan Zhuoyu and watched her slip away faster than a rabbit. She sighed, "She was covered in the smell of class just now, but as soon as she heard that President Pei was coming, she became full of energy. Is this the power of positive love?"
Qiu Tong stretched and said, "Our Sister Yan is like a dual-brain system. When she's at work, she's focused on her career, and when she's off work, she's focused on romance. President Pei drives to pick her up from get off work every day, rain or shine. It makes me want to date a pure and innocent male high school student."
Qiao Xinyun pointed to the brand-new car keys on the table: "Have you forgotten your year-end bonus? Isn't it more fun to drive yourself?"
Qiu Tong picked up her car keys and chuckled again: "Hahaha, that's true. Love is such a mysterious thing. One person with a love-struck mind is a tragedy, but two love-struck minds together are our tragedy. We'll be eating dog food every day. Enough said, time to get to work!"
