Chapter 556: Chapter 525: Xian Yu’s Fourth Movie _1
The next day.
Lin Yuan, who had revealed his identity in the show, had finally returned to the company. The moment he walked in, he was greeted by everyone’s attention and whispers. However, Lin Yuan didn’t feel anything was amiss. Whether in the past, present, or the future, wherever he went, he could not escape the attention of others. This had little to do with his fame. Therefore, it could be said that unveiling his identity on The Masked Singer did not greatly affect Lin Yuan’s life.
He wasn’t too bothered.
Not long after he arrived at his office, Yi Chenggong and others found him. They started off by congratulating him for his successful vocal recovery and for winning The Masked Singer. After a lively chat, they brought up their purpose, “The production of ‘Spiderman’ has been completed. Now we have to consider the release date.”
“Hmm.”
Lin Yuan nodded.
This was the fourth movie that he participated in as a core scriptwriter and it happened to be the most commercial one. It was an excellent launch pad to make a splash in the box office and Lin Yuan was looking forward to it.
This matter was decided.
After a while, a delighted Gu Dong entered. He skillfully brewed a cup of tea for Lin Yuan, then they started discussing work. “Now that you have officially revealed your face, many businesses want you to endorse their products. The offers are even more lucrative than before. If you’re interested, I can show you the details.The bottom line is, it’s up to you to decide whether to accept these endorsements or not.”
“I’ll consider it.”
Lin Yuan wasn’t averse to doing advertisements. Now that he has embraced the idea of appearing in public, he wouldn’t resist being in the spotlight. However, he needed to consider these opportunities carefully. “Are there any other offers apart from endorsements?”
“Of course.”
Gu Dong had been contacted by numerous parties wanting to collaborate with Xian Yu since last night, his phone kept buzzing till date. “Various reality TV shows from Blue Star, as well as dozens of popular reality shows, have sent you invitations. Several magazines and media outlets have also invited you for exclusive interviews after your past was revealed.”
“Deny all.”
Lin Yuan wasn’t interested.
He didn’t even ask about the pay as he knew that the amount suggested by Gu Dong would be tempting. As a person, Lin Yuan was not good at resisting money, so to avoid temptations, he didn’t ask about it. As for his past, there were already numerous discussions online and his Tribe fan community was filled with messages of comfort and encouragement from his fans…
“Alright.”
Gu Dong wasn’t surprised.
Mr. Lin had participated in The Masked Singer just for his love for singing. Unlike others who sought fame, he didn’t lack any. Perhaps, Mr. Lin will still be focusing on behind-the-scenes work in the future.
“By the way!”
Gu Dong continued, “The download count of all the songs you sang on the show soared after your identity was revealed. I estimate that it won’t be long before you become a frontline singer, although this target may be meaningless for you.”
It indeed was meaningless.
Lin Yuan did not need to reach the level of first-tier singers in terms of data. He was an exceptional case in Blue Star. No matter where he went, everyone would recognize him as possessing talent on par with the King of Singing. Just as everyone regarded Lin Yuan on the same level as the Maestro even though he hadn’t won the title, when influence reaches a certain level, so-called rules can actually be broken.
Take Earth for example.
Haruki Murakami hasn’t…
Forget about the Nobel thing.
Let’s talk about Little Leo instead.
Even if Little Leo had not won an Oscar at that time, it in no way affected his position in the hearts of his fans. Of course, it would have been even better if he could win an award, as some people value tangible recognition, which is why the internet was abuzz discussing when Little Leo won the Oscar.
“There’s another thing.”
Gu Dong smiled lightly, “The Prince of Lanling mask you designed has been produced and sold by a merchant who bought its copyright. It is selling very well right now, we have even run out of stocks due to the high demand. Most interestingly, today there was a popular post on the forum where a woman asked her husband to wear the Prince of Lanling mask when they…”
“When they what?”
Lin Yuan looked utterly confused.
Gu Dong coughed awkwardly, “Just the usual stuff that happens between a husband and wife. The woman was a bit excessive as she demanded her husband to wear the Prince of Lanling mask and even asked him to play your songs on her phone while they do it…”
Lin Yuan: “?”
These people are not normal.
After chit-chatting with Lin Yuan for a while, Gu Dong left. Lin Yuan took a sip of his tea casually, but soon realized something was off with the taste.
Upon looking down, he saw seven or eight large, red…
Goji berries??
What’s going on?
Why are there goji berries in my tea?
Alright.
They were left by Sun Yao Huo.
Of course, Gu Dong was aware of this too.
She had been given the task to take care of Lin Yuan’s health…
Not dwelling on the issue of goji berries.
Lin Yuan logged onto Tribe and released several posters of ‘Spiderman’.
“The new movie ‘Spiderman’ has been completed, stay tuned!”
It was a simple movie promotion.
Nevertheless, once the promotion was released, the comments section exploded. This was the first update from Xian Yu after he had revealed his identity on The Masked Singer!
The comments were all over the map.
Some were urging him to take care of his health, others wanted him to release more songs.
There were even more miscellaneous comments than the ones discussing the movie.
Luckily, there were also people who took notice of the movie.
“Fish Papa’s new movie is going on screen soon?”
“Is the new movie a superhero one?”
“Huh?”
“If I remember correctly, there are other superhero movies releasing soon, not just Fish Papa’s movie.”
“Is Fish Papa also starting to make commercial films?”
“I’m sick of superhero movies. Fish Papa should consider making some comedies, like ‘Flirting Scholar’.”
“Flirting Scholar is indeed a classic!”
“After this movie, all cockroaches were named Xiao Qiang.”
“That’s not all, this movie has also resulted in the naming of countless dogs as ‘Wangcai’ nationwide.”
“…”
From these comments, it is evident that the superhero genre isn’t novel for Blue Star’s audience.
Moreover…
It seems like in the near future, there won’t be just one superhero movie being released?
