Chapter 97: 095 The Troubles of Little Zi Han
"I won\'t."
"By the way, about the ad script we\'re shooting this time... My mom said it seems I\'m playing the lead role?"
"That\'s right, you\'re the lead, and I\'m the villain,"
Fang You said.
...
!!!
[Wang Zihan suddenly feels you\'re quite nice! Emotional Energy +30*2]
Just then, Wang Zihan came over, tiptoed, and patted Fang You on the shoulder.
"I\'m sorry, You You, you\'re such a famous Moe King now, and here I am stealing your lead script; I really feel bad about it..."
"It\'s fine, I wouldn\'t be good at playing this lead role anyway, so I wanted you to do it,"
Fang You calmly replied.
Wang Zihan then asked, "Playing the villain, won\'t your fans have something to say? I\'m worried you\'ll lose followers..."
"They shouldn\'t. Go ahead and try out for the part first,"
Fang You said, "Ah right, you have scenes with Mu Mu."
"Really!"
Wang Zihan, full of fighting spirit!
Don\'t think that just because Wang Zihan didn\'t make it past the first round of "The Strongest Moe Kid" means he\'s inexperienced; after all, he\'s a little internet celebrity with over a hundred thousand followers and plenty of shooting experience.
It\'s just that he doesn\'t recognize many words since he\'s still a kindergartener about to graduate.
He needs the director to guide him step by step on what to act out.
After listening to the director\'s explanation, Wang Zihan feels the script is pretty good.
"So it turns out... it\'s about a boy striving to win back the girl he likes."
It\'s a story tailor-made for me!
Wang Zihan had intended to sincerely thank You You for his understanding, but after giving it some thought, he decided against it.
Mu Mu is here; I need to focus on the audition and not let You You\'s kindness go to waste.
"First, you need to show a happy expression when seeing the girl you like."
Wang Zihan thought for a moment, then glanced over at Su Mumu, who was sitting and fixing her hair.
Hehe... Hehehe...
"Ah, yes, yes, that\'s the expression! Perfect score!"
That infatuated daydream of a young boy came to life on the page!
.net
No wonder Emperor Youyou, with just one look at the script, knew exactly what our team wanted for the protagonist. The child\'s image was too vivid.
"For the second scene, you have to act out seeing the girl you like getting cozy with another boy."
...
Wang Zihan tried to recall the scenes of Ling Nai getting close to Fang You from his childhood, but he no longer felt the jealousy of the past.
I have no feelings for Ling Nai anymore.
Now, I just want to give my true heart to a girl who cares about and values me more.
Right, that girl is—
Wang Zihan looked up and then saw Fang You draping an arm around Su Mumu\'s shoulder; Su Mumu twirled her hair and then carefully caressed Fang You\'s cheek.
I—I—I—My gosh!
Wang Zihan\'s expression gradually contorted.
This change even made the somewhat silent director\'s mouth curl into a smile.
Yes, that\'s the feeling, the twisted pain of losing a loved one, the frustration of being enraged and powerless and unable to do anything about it; so vivid, so lifelike, it was as if he was born to play this part!
And in that moment, Fang You slowly lifted his head and revealed a scornful and wild smile to Wang Zihan.
You little rascal... you took my Ling Nai away, and now before my eyes, you want to steal Mu Mu, who obviously likes me!
You\'re too bad, You You!
[Wang Zihan\'s wound from your betrayal never heals! Emotional Energy +100*2!]
Wang Zihan, completely insane!!!
"Good, good, good, good!"
The director immediately stood up, excitedly clapping for Wang Zihan, "Young man, I swear, you have a real talent for acting, and you\'ll certainly become a big star in the future!"
"You You and Mu Mu\'s support on the side was also not bad, worthy of encouragement."
"Thank you, Director Uncle."
Wha-, what...
So they were only acting to help me!
The reason You You showed me that expression was to help me pass the acting test?
I\'m, I\'m sorry... You You, I misunderstood you!
[Wang Zihan felt a lot of guilt toward you, Emotional Energy +20*2]
"Your friend seems so much fun!"
"Hmm-hmm... I think so too."
Fang You nodded, "But, haven\'t you been holding me for too long?"
"Hehe, because You You is so cute."
Su Mumu smiled sweetly and stuck her tongue out at Fang You, reluctantly releasing him from her embrace.
Thanks to Wang Zihan\'s natural acting prowess, "The Troubles of Young Abin" was later renamed "The Troubles of Little Zi Han" due to his joining.
In the story, the main character Zi Han developed a crush on the class monitor, and he wanted to save money to buy crayons to woo her, only to find out before he had saved enough that she was already with the handsome, cool, and richer Ah You;
The second time, Zi Han fell for an older girl who played soccer, he fantasized about running on the green fields with her, so he started to save money desperately for soccer shoes, only for her to be swept off her feet by the wealthy and handsome Ah You in his class before he could save enough;
The third time, a heartbroken Zi Han met the cool motorcycle girl Mu Mu, he fantasized about going on a spontaneous trip with her, saving frugally again for a motorcycle, but before he could save enough money, Mu Mu was already riding on Ah You\'s bike, whisked away by him!
Every time Zi Han faced his darkest moments and showed a super sad face, the background music would match with the mournful melody of "A Spray of Plum Blossoms" and scenes of snowflakes drifting down, along with Fang You\'s classic side profile and disdainful smirk.
Once the advertisement for "The Troubles of Little Zi Han" aired, it immediately sparked a "Zi Han craze" across the internet.
[Hahaha, omg this ad is going to kill me with laughter]
[So what exactly is this ad for?]
[It feels like the characters chosen are all so perfect, each little girl is so cute, it seems like they really have a crush on Emperor Youyou]
[Is anyone shipping Mu Mu and You You? I think the way they ride off together on the motorcycle at the end is too cool]
Of course, there were also many bullet comments discovering Fang You\'s shining points, giving Emperor Youyou high scores for this performance!
[What the heck, I didn\'t know You You could make such a range of expressions]
[You You\'s villain face is going to make me die laughing]
[Feels like he really enjoys teasing Zi Han]
[Nuo Nuo is accidental, Zi Han is the true love!]
[Here come the Zi Han fans smelling the buzz]
Of course, this was just a simple snapshot of Emperor Youyou\'s rise to being a household internet sensation.
In the remaining half of his fifth year, Fang You often took advantage of free time outside of school to shoot ads with Xia Nuo.
Fang You and Xia Nuo\'s advertisements started to appear gradually in every corner of life, profoundly affecting a generation of Hua Country\'s childhood memories.
However, Fang You\'s journey as an ad spokesperson quieted down when he turned six.
Because his parents had discovered a problem: the money could never be fully earned.
The invites for endorsements were constant, showing no signs of stopping.
Seeing the children nearly graduating from kindergarten, the parents did not wish them to be forever busy on set. They were supposed to have their own happy childhoods.
Besides advertising endorsements, the frequency of social media updates by Emperor Youyou and Nuo Nuo\'s Strawberry Jam also began to decrease. The parents started to keep their children\'s personal space in mind more and more, allowing them to return to schooling life.
Every year on Hua Country\'s internet, there were always topics people excitedly discussed, and internet celebrities who had been all the rage would fade away with the cooling of their popularity.
But for Fang You, fleeting fame was not something particularly treasurable.
What he cared about most was his progress in growing up.
And Fang You took this opportunity to start his own accumulation and embarked on his own reading plan.
Starting with general scientific books that wouldn\'t scare his parents.
But the problem was, this kind of picture book had too few words, mostly beautiful comics, which Nuo Nuo loved. Fang You gave them all to her.
So at home, Fang You would find various paper books to read.
However, the bookshelf at home didn\'t have many books, and reading the same books over wasn\'t going to add to his progress.
The conditions were very harsh...
Fang You\'s reading progress was much slower than he had imagined.
These 100 million characters... It looks like I\'ll be reading for quite a while.
