EFB Chapter 76, "Unexpectedly," premieres.
Chapter 76, "Unexpectedly," premieres.
"I never expected this, Lu Yuan! You actually managed to win over our Xixi!"
"Shuchang..." Liu Yifei shouted in dissatisfaction.
Lu Yuan smiled smugly, "Hehe..."
Today is the day Liu Yifei brings Lu Yuan and Shu Chang to meet, and of course, there is another important person in his circle of friends.
That's Yao Beina. She has recovered at this stage, but no one can predict whether she will relapse.
So even if Lu Yuan wanted to help, there was nothing he could do; he was powerless to help with this kind of illness.
This system isn't omnipotent; it can only help him extract entries about people in the entertainment industry.
The only thing I can do is ask Xixi to remind her to take care of her life and not be too busy when we have the chance to meet.
"Lu Yuan, when you found out that Zeng Yike confessed her feelings to Xixi, what was your reaction?"
Shu Chang had a "the more trouble the better" expression on her face, completely ignoring Liu Yifei's murderous look.
"What kind of expression could I possibly have? Do you think I'm worried about a woman stealing my girlfriend?"
"I'd be more worried if it were a man," Lu Yuan joked.
Shu Chang felt that what he said made a lot of sense and she couldn't refute it.
The three of them got along quite well, but Lu Yuan was very sensible and didn't get too close to Shu Chang.
It's best not to get too close to your girlfriend's best friend; just get to know her. That's a matter of attitude.
They both got to know each other's friends and seemed to have gained some understanding of each other's situation.
"Unexpected" has also officially premiered on Youku.
When the audience saw the limpness on Lu Yuan's face, they found it quite amusing.
To make himself look ugly, he deliberately grew a mustache, but that couldn't completely hide his good looks.
"My name is Wang Dachui, and I'm an actor."
"We are currently filming a low-budget martial arts drama."
"This is way too low-budget! What's with this toy sword for kids?"
Lu Yuan's puzzled expression, along with his inner monologue, instantly created a comedic effect.
It felt a bit nonsensical, and his expression was also quite silly.
This immediately piqued the audience's interest, who found it very entertaining.
Especially with those cheap special effects, the audience felt speechless yet amused.
This twist-and-reverse feeling is something everyone finds fascinating.
Huang Daoji and the others really brought out that comedic charm; it was practically a natural performance for them.
This show doesn't require much acting skill; it's all about making people laugh.
"A production from Lu Dian Ban Studio is bound to be good."
"Hahaha... This plot is hilarious, it's even better than 'Six and a Half'."
"My name is Wang Dachui, and this Wang Dachui is hilarious!"
"It's hilarious, especially the special effects; they're really talented."
"The screenwriter is still Lu Yuan, and this guy really has something!"
"I almost choked on my food."
"Lu Yuan is so handsome, he's really willing to go all out to make himself look ugly."
……
The first episode garnered over 2000 million views, which is 1000 million more than Lu Yuan remembered.
That's because of the good reputation built up by the previous show, "Lu Dian Ban," which made "Unexpectedly" a hit as soon as it premiered.
This delighted Youku, who felt that cooperating with them was the right decision; these guys really had something up their sleeves.
When the professor saw the plot of "Unexpected", his eyes widened.
He slapped his thigh repeatedly, wondering why he hadn't thought of this plot. He only had an idea in his mind, but someone else had already come up with it.
He just has a big idea, but he hasn't come up with it yet.
As it turned out, someone actually figured it out, and it was even better than he had imagined, which he greatly admired!
"Oh dear, why didn't I think of filming like this!"
"This team is really amazing!"
With this in mind, he had an idea: he could just film something similar.
As long as you don't plagiarize, there's no problem with borrowing from others.
When Liu Yifei saw Lu Yuan's silly and clueless appearance in "Unexpectedly", she laughed so hard that her stomach hurt a little.
She felt that Lu Yuan in this version was much funnier than the one in "Lu Dian Ban".
It made him almost want to make a cameo appearance, but the drama had already finished filming and there wasn't a suitable role for her.
Besides, if she makes a cameo appearance, their relationship would probably be exposed immediately.
However, helping to promote it shouldn't be a problem.
"Unexpectedly, it's really hilarious." @Lu Yuan
As soon as she posted this Weibo post, her fans flocked to it.
Her fans know she's helped several times already, so this doesn't seem right!
"XiXi, your secret boyfriend isn't this guy, is he?!"
"Yeah, why are we always promoting him?"
"Could it be that Xixi Studio signed Lu Yuan?"
"That's probably impossible. Xixi always does things around her."
"They're good friends, so helping out with promotion is no big deal."
"That's right, maybe the two of them have become good friends, so he'll help promote it."
"This 'Unexpected' is really funny, it's normal for our funny girl Xixi to like it."
"The plot is hilarious, you guys should check it out."
……
Many fans, despite their skepticism, still chose to watch the show.
The result was that I couldn't stop watching it; it was really funny, no wonder Liu Yifei recommended it.
"Of course, there's a reward for helping with the promotion. Lu Yuan wrote a song for me, and it's a really good song. It will be released soon."
Seeing that many fans had guessed it but couldn't believe it, Liu Yifei wanted to share the song.
So he commented the following sentence on his own Weibo post.
Fans were immediately excited when they saw this message. Their Faye was actually releasing a song, so of course they applauded and supported it.
No matter what, they will like it.
"Support Xixi, looking forward to her new song."
"Finally, another song is being released! I'm so happy!"
"There are songs to listen to again."
"XiXi, how about you do a song and dance routine?"
"Singing and dancing is fine, I love the way the fairy sister sings and dances."
……
As a result, the criticism of Lu Yuan subsided considerably, and everyone assumed that, as Liu Yifei said, he was only helping with the promotion because of the song.
The goal is to let fans know that the two have a good relationship, and then accept this situation time and time again.
Like a frog being slowly boiled in water, even when it's finally revealed that it's Lu Yuan, these fans won't get too excited.
They went to Lu Yuan's side to hurl insults and even did excessive things.
This is what Liu Yifei wanted to see. She was afraid that Lu Yuan would be criticized too harshly by his fans, which would affect the little things in their daily lives.
She couldn't say anything to the fans, so she could only proceed slowly in this way.
She had already finished recording the song and was just waiting for a good day to release it.
She really likes the song "A Little Happiness" and thinks it's very nice to listen to.
However, what she wants now is a sweet love song.
