Chapter 183: Choosing to Reveal His Identity at the Moment of Being Scolded
The reporter finally figured out who was standing on the red carpet.
Standing there is the Howling Elves, whose song "The Last of the Mohicans" became popular all over the world in just one week without any promotion.
Standing there is the founder of detective novels, called God Han by detective fans.
He is an excellent screenwriter and director, and an outstanding actor.
In the previous twelve months, he won the Best Actor or Best Actor award in six countries around the world.
He was voted by college students across the United States for the most popular instrumental award, with votes far exceeding the second place by many times.
He is currently shooting a blockbuster film and is filming it crazily around the world.
The actor who played the leading role for him was none other than the popular actor Michael Coppola.
This person has many identities, but the people here today are mainly fans of his books, and secondly fans of his songs.
Since when did book fans become as fanatical as rock fans?
The noise at the scene made the New York media realize that this was a big fish.
It's not just a small circle's self-centered thing, but the arrival of a big star from a distant country.
The long guns and short guns showed their strength.
Now the role of journalists who have the advantage of physical strength is reflected.
Many people began to push forward.
Michael? Come on, you can photograph him in a club 200 days out of 365.
Now is the time to take pictures of Han Zhou, hurry up and squeeze to the front row!
On the red carpet, many book fans held books and asked Han Zhou to sign them.
Han Zhou also picked up a pen and signed his name.
However, Han Zhou was not prepared to sign all of them. Instead, he signed more than a dozen and said, "That's about it. We're in a hurry."
Darf immediately waved his hand, signaling the people behind him to disperse a little, and the signing was over.
Many enthusiastic book fans, who haven't gotten their autographs yet, are still pushing forward.
The people in front got the signal and realized they could no longer sign, and they all sighed.
In the crowd, someone held up a sign that read: "Han!!!"
“We want new songs!!!”
Last time in Palm Bay, a fan asked Han Zhou to sing, but he ended up getting beaten up by fans.
This time, a lot of fans came, and they came in groups.
So, be brave and push forward.
Han Zhou also heard such a loud noise, but he was prepared to ignore it.
However, finally a small group squeezed to the front.
Someone shouted, "Han!"
"You gave New Year's gifts to the fans of your books, but not to the fans of your songs!!!"
New Year's gift? I'm not Santa Claus.
But for the sake of the US dollar, Han Zhou said: "Forget it, there is no equipment."
Someone in the crowd yelled, "Get out of the way!!!"
The crowd dispersed.
There was no way, a big truck was driving forward.
“The equipment is here!!!”
The side panels of the truck fell down, and a mobile stage appeared.
There are drum sets, pianos, various musical instruments and speakers on it.
Apparently, fans have learned their lesson after experiencing Han Zhou's silent performance at the College Choice Awards last time.
This time he came with something serious.
Han Zhou was speechless.
Wow, they drove the stage directly outside the airport, right?
this……
After all, it was just an excuse I just found, and it’s hard to find another one now.
I should have said my throat was hoarse.
Darf was very unhappy. Today was a big day for the book fans, so why did you song fans come here to take advantage of the popularity and even want Han Shen to sing?
Of course, Mr. Han needs to save energy to write books, so he has no time to sing.
Dalph: "Do you want to block it?"
The staunch book fans at the front, who are also the backbone of the forum, are still blocking the way.
Han Zhou: "Forget it, let them come over."
Soon, the news that Han Zhou was going to sing spread throughout the scene.
In the distance, those who were waiting at the back of the road began to squeeze forward.
The people in the front, taking advantage of their proximity to the stage, were able to squeeze directly to the front of the truck stage.
More and more people gathered at the scene.
Han Zhou has already entered the stage.
At this time, Han Zhou was wearing a big down jacket and his hair was not done yet. He still had the same long hair he had when he finished filming Kung Fu.
Holding the microphone, Han Zhou tested his voice: "Hello."
Sound: "Ziz~ta-da~diudiudiu~bang-bang~"
Han Zhou covered his ears.
The person who drove over immediately adjusted the audio system and then made an OK gesture.
Han Zhoucai picked up the microphone and said, "Come on, don't crowd, and listen to my instructions."
Everyone at the scene was stunned.
As a director, Han Zhou is used to directing this kind of scenes, so he knows very well how to direct it.
Han Zhou raised his hand and said, "Everyone standing in the first row, slowly step back, three steps away from the speakers, and stand shoulder to shoulder."
The people in front began to retreat, and the people behind also slowly retreated.
Han Zhou continued: "People in the second row, gather your hands together, raise them flat in front of your chest, and put your fists on the back of the person in front of you."
"Okay, third row, do it."
"Fourth row."
"Those behind, move slowly. The snow behind is too deep. Don't step on other people's feet."
The crowd expanded outward in circles.
Han Zhou was standing on the stage at this time and saw this scene.
I can't wait to play the song "The Vitality of Youth" and then lead the dance of the eighth set of radio gymnastics.
But I still held back.
Once the crowded crowd in front moves away, the ones behind don’t matter anymore.
Because the closer the center of the circle is to the truck, the fewer people there are, and the more everyone wants to squeeze forward.
The distance between the seats at the back is farther, so more people can stand in each circle and there is no need to make them particularly far apart.
Moreover, because of the snow, they couldn't squeeze in even if they wanted to.
At this time, the pilot of a plane passing by in the sky said: "Tower, tower, a large-scale military formation has appeared outside the airport!!!"
Tower: "Safe landing, that's the concert site."
pilot:"???"
On the big truck stage, Han Zhou brought a stool, sat on it, and then picked up the guitar.
Look at the people in the audience.
Thinking about what song to sing.
Maybe this scene is really suitable for a rock song.
However, Han Zhou was afraid that after a rock song, everyone would get excited and he would not be able to leave.
Moreover, once this group of people get excited and start to crowd forward, there might be trouble.
So, let’s just stick with folk songs.
Han Zhou tried the guitar, leaned forward, and moved closer to the microphone: "500 Miles."
An elegant and melodious prelude sounded.
In fact, Han Zhou had thought about making this song a long time ago.
Because this song is the authentic national anthem of the United States, and it is more deeply rooted in people's hearts than the national anthem they use themselves.
This song describes almost everything about Americans in several eras.
The main theme of life for several generations in this country is "leaving home".
"If you miss the train I'm on
If you miss my train
You will know that I am gone
You should know that I'm gone
You can hear the whistle a hundred miles away
One hundred miles, one hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles…”
It is difficult for people who have never left their hometown to understand this beginning.
I would think there was something mysterious inside.
It’s actually very simple, it’s just pure nostalgia for my hometown.
There is a saying that goes 'All roads lead to Rome, but some people are born in Rome'.
In today's America, all roads lead to New York, but how many people were born in New York?
In this immigrant country, everyone's ancestors came from other countries.
And almost every young adult living in this country will not stay in their hometown.
Unless, like Dulph, you inherit a farm.
"You can hear the whistle a hundred miles away
God I'm a hundred miles away, two hundred miles away
God, I'm three hundred miles away, four hundred miles away
Before I knew it I was five hundred miles away from home…”
At the scene, the originally enthusiastic crowd became quiet.
Listening to such melodious singing.
American country folk songs developed from British folk songs. Their characteristics are excellent melody and relatively simple lyrics.
It's pleasant to the ear, and the lyrics are very straightforward.
Don't think too much, it means literally.
Who here didn’t leave their hometown to be here? When many people heard the lyrics, they remembered the scene when they left their hometown.
Maybe not by train, but it was a hundred miles after another, until I was who knows how many miles away from home.
”
Leave home, leave home
Leave home, leave home
God, I'm five hundred miles from home
I'm in rags
I’m penniless…”
Both the fans of the song and the fans of the book cried after hearing it.
Do you have to hurt my heart? Do you have to curse me?
Everyone wants to become a millionaire and comes to this cold-hearted city.
But who succeeded?
Even if you succeed, you will still think of the days when you were not successful.
After all, the pretentious way of recalling the past and thinking about the present is a common characteristic of human beings.
”
Oh my God, how can I go home when I am so miserable?
Such distress, such desolation
Such distress, such desolation
Oh, God, how am I going to go home in such a miserable state?
The guitar played and the singing rang out.
There seemed to be sobbing sounds among the crowd.
This song is not very sad, but it is really homesick.
Once people feel homesick, they feel depressed.
So, the scene was like a mourning meeting.
Everyone is mourning the self that left home.
Life cannot be repeated and cannot go back. If you really have another chance, will you still leave home?
Yes, I will leave home again, but I will also think of myself who left home again.
Boy, have you really thought it through?
"If you miss the train I'm on
If you miss my train
You should know that I'm gone
You can hear the whistle a hundred miles away..."
The song slowly ended.
Han Zhou on the stage: "Is it cold here?"
“This is a song for you.”
Han Zhou knew that this song would become popular and famous soon.
Across the globe, music has been taking a strange path lately.
There are fewer and fewer good songs.
In the United States, the same type of songs began to appear on a large scale.
This kind of song has a strong sense of rhythm, but hidden behind it is a low-frequency drum rhythm.
Scientific research has found that this thing can make people depressed.
When people are depressed, it is easy for them to have trouble thinking clearly.
When you can't think clearly, you tend to want to be quiet.
I'll want to play the song on repeat.
This low-level method has recently become the mainstream of music creation.
However, "Five Hundred Miles" can achieve the same effect as a low-frequency rhythm due to its lyrics and style, and it is also pleasant to the ear.
Simply put, when a person needs sleep, there is a sledgehammer hitting his face on one side and a lullaby on the other side.
The effect is the same, you fall asleep as soon as you lie down.
Which one would a normal person choose?
Do you like sad music? Then listen to something sad but nice.
The market is here, and "Five Hundred Miles" will inevitably become the favorite music of those who like to look at the sky at a 45-degree angle and not let their tears fall in a short period of time.
After the singing ended, Han Zhou waved and left.
Fans of the book and the song were all immersed in the song and did not make any fanatical attempts to keep it.
This song calmed their minds.
Only Darf was more excited.
"He really loves book lovers more."
Dalph's driver felt that he had transformed from a fan of Han Shen's books to a fan of Han Shen's songs, and asked back: "Why do you say that?"
Dalf: "You see, Han Shen wrote "Murder on the Orient Express", and then fans asked him to sing a song, so he sang "500 Miles", which is about leaving his hometown by train instead of driving a car."
"In the United States, shouldn't it be more appropriate to drive a car? So, Han Shen did it on purpose."
Darf's driver: "Boss, have you ever thought that some rural youths simply cannot afford to buy a car?"
Dalph: “???”
"I won't listen. I won't listen."
In this country where people live on wheels, there are an average of 870 cars for every 1,000 people.
According to China's statistical method, almost every American family has two cars.
But that’s not actually the case.
When every family in the United States had a car, or something like that, capitalists began to think, what if a family had three cars?
There is no solution to this problem.
However, there is an answer to this problem.
That is, turning one family into three families, that would be easy.
So, a sentiment emerged: 'You're an adult, it's time to move out.'
At the same time, the United States has become the country with the highest divorce rate in the world, without a doubt.
In the United States, the divorce rate for first-time marriages is 41%, while the divorce rate for second-time marriages is 60%, and the divorce rate for third-time marriages is as high as 73%.
The two measures were used simultaneously to triple domestic demand.
The plan is passed.
So, in reality, not many young people in the United States own cars.
Many young people, when they leave home for the first time, usually take a train or ride a motorcycle.
This song has no relevance to a person like Darf, who was born into a life of luxury, became famous on the forum when he was a teenager, and inherited a large fortune in his twenties.
But for ordinary young people, it is a decisive blow.
Soon, the media at the scene posted the captured footage online.
YouTube, Twitter.
Han Zhou already has a lot of fans, but so far, Han Zhou has only performed once at the College Choice Awards.
And there weren't many people who could get into that scene.
Therefore, up to now, Han Zhou has not performed on a real stage in the United States.
As soon as the video came out, a large number of American fans were excited.
"Huh? When did Han attend the festival?!"
“Where was this filmed?”
"Damn, this song is good!"
"This is not a music festival, this is outside the New York airport, there are 40,000 to 50,000 people there."
"Someone drove a performance car to the scene, and Han Shen just sang a random song."
"Hiss, wrong!"
All hype or heat will eventually die down.
But excellent works will eventually be passed down.
After a large number of hardcore fans discussed it, more casual fans came out to listen to the songs.
His previous songs, "The Last of the Mohicans" and "Castro Fair", were widely circulated, and many passers-by had heard Han Zhou's songs.
This time, when these people saw the trending search on Twitter, of course they clicked in to take a look.
"Sure enough, worthy of being Han Zhou."
"It still sounds so beautiful, and there is a kind of sadness in the beauty."
"It must be awesome to listen to it live. When will Han Zhou hold a concert?!"
“Is there an instrumental version? When recording live, the voices beside me are too harsh.”
"I guess there is. After all, it is a performance car. The provider of the performance car must have filmed a video version of the stage."
"Link please."
“We ask the same thing!”
"Five Hundred Miles" spread at a very fast speed.
The entire central and northeastern United States is now experiencing blizzard weather. As the snowstorm passes through, many people cannot leave their homes, so the Internet is unusually active.
Thanks to this, the popularity of "500 Miles" is about three times higher than the usual hot searches of this popularity.
So many passers-by who had never heard Han Zhou's song heard this song.
As usual, Han Zhou did not release an official recording, so the pirated version once again topped the hot song charts.
The next day, Billboard was updated and "Five Hundred Miles" directly ranked first on the folk song chart and in the top ten of the hot song chart.
On the third day, the troublesome scene happened again.
A pirated version of the song once again topped the Billboard charts.
The last time this happened was also with Han Zhou. There was no official recorded version of "The Last of the Mohicans" at the time. Instead, it was directly played on repeat by a large number of casual fans in North and South America and topped the Billboard charts.
This kind of unofficial recording version can only top the Billboard charts for a single day based on the volume of airplay. Since there is no sales data, it will quickly go down the charts and it is impossible for it to stay at the top for several weeks like other hit songs.
However, the unofficial bootleg version that topped the list was particularly horrifying.
Many people in the entertainment industry now know that Han Zhou is not actually an independent musician, but has a company called New World behind him.
And this company has been registered in Hollywood.
Maybe, soon, Han Zhou will release his own album?
How to fight then?
Now, they are worried about the same issues that people in the Chinese music industry had been worried about in the first half of the year.
However, so far, Han Zhou has no plans to release an album, either in China or the United States.
Han Zhou needs to make a breakthrough in the film industry in China, and only after his position in the industry is completely consolidated and no one can mess with him, can he consider releasing an album.
As for the U.S., the first album will be kept for when Han Zhou officially enters the U.S. entertainment industry, to make a splash.
With such a big commotion in the United States, there is certainly no way there would be no reaction in China.
Many of Han Zhou’s fans were stunned after seeing this.
"No, didn't Han Zhou just finish filming Kung Fu? Why is he going to the United States to film a movie again?"
"Han Zhou has released another English song? How long has it been since he released a Chinese song? Do you really think that the fans who signed in are all just for fun and there are no music fans?"
"Hey, Han Zhou wrote an English novel? What the hell, can Han Zhou write a novel?"
The well-known book reviewer verified the news several times and posted on Weibo:
"Look what I found. It turns out that the author of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, and The Lost Tomb is actually Han Zhou! That's right, the Han Zhou who sings and acts in movies."
This person also posted the encyclopedia information of Han Zhoumei.
It is directly stated above that Han Zhou has written several Chinese novels and the English novels "Murder on the Orient Express" and "And Then There Were None".
Although the translated names of these novels are not easy to understand, after posting some information and clicking on them, I found that they are the international versions of "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" and other books published by Longdian Chinese website!
Then I posted some related pictures.
Netizens flocked to the scene to watch the show.
“No wonder many of the martial arts in “The World’s Number One” have appeared in “Tian Long”, and many of the martial arts in “Shao Bao” have also appeared in the works of Jin Gu Liang Huang.”
"I was saying that Jin Gu said Song Ming created an imaginary universe, but he didn't explain why the new world shared the same worldview with him. After all this time, Jin Gu is Han Zhou, and Han Zhou is Jin Gu?!"
When these people were discussing enthusiastically, they were all shocked that Han Zhou had actually written a novel, and it was such a good and awesome book.
One comment directly changed the atmosphere of the entire comment section.
A user at the Pai Gow level of Han Zhou's Weibo followers asked: "So, it was Han Zhou, the bastard, who arranged for Zhen Zhibing to have sex with Xiao Long Nu?"
Recently, Longdian Chinese website has exploded.
After the update of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was completed, the second part of the trilogy "The Return of the Condor Heroes" has begun updating.
The update method is that each chapter is divided into three chapters: upper, middle and lower.
Three days ago, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was updated to the end of the seventh chapter.
The comments section has exploded.
The heroine, Xiao Longnu, was raped by Zhen Zhibing.
Countless people threatened Jin Guliang Huang to revise the text immediately, otherwise they would abandon the book immediately.
However, yesterday, there was no change at all and the update continued.
And, the most amazing thing is that after this plot, the average subscription of The Return of the Condor Heroes exceeded 100,000.
The official Longdian Chinese website released a large banner and splash screen to celebrate the fact that the subscriptions for The Return of the Condor Heroes exceeded 100,000.
It directly pissed off all the book lovers.
These people cursed in the comment section and directly reported Longdian Chinese website.
Fortunately, Longdian Chinese website has been acquired by Penguin. If it had happened before, it might have been shut down due to reports.
And until today, it has not changed and continues to be updated.
The book fans who were furious at first have begun to beg Jin Gu Liang Huang to revise the text in the comment section.
"Change it, please!"
"Can you change the seventh chapter? I will directly become the Golden Alliance!"
"Yimeng, please change the seventh chapter."
"Do you want to join the alliance first and then change it? Master Jin Gu, please say something!"
However, Jin Guliang Huang no longer responded to comments intensively in the past few days and simply disappeared.
Now, when book lovers see the trending search, they are very happy at first.
After all this time, it turns out that Jin Gulianghuang is Han Zhou, so... the one who is replying to comments so intensively is actually the assistant, right?
Then I thought, what the hell? No, it's you, you loser! Give me back my little dragon girl's innocence!
Weibo exploded immediately.
Several die-hard fans of Han Zhou's level 9 fans took the lead in cursing under Han Zhou's Weibo: "Kill Han the old dog, save the little dragon girl!"
"Han Gou, if you don't change, I will never listen to your songs again."
Someone reminded: "Han Zhou hasn't released an album yet, and his songs are almost free now. I guess... you can listen to them or not. If you make him angry, he will set a fee, and you will have to beg him again."
"Then I will never watch his TV series again!!!"
"The TV series is free, so did you pay him for watching his TV series?"
"Huh? Then... by the way, "Kung Fu", if the plot doesn't change, I won't buy a ticket!!!"
"Yes, if the plot is not changed, I will definitely not watch Kung Fu!"
“Boycott Kung Fu is everyone’s responsibility!!!”
Han Zhou, who was filming in the United States, had no idea that his identity would be exposed when the plot of Xiaolongnu being defiled was released, and the fans of the book were outraged.
Han Zhou didn't have time to take care of this.
Because the filming of "Lord of War" has reached a critical moment.
Most of this movie is pretentious, and the emotional expressions that require acting skills were basically shot in New York, so the workload for the entire crew was very intense.
As a director, Han Zhou is extremely busy. How could he have the time to climb over the wall and check Weibo?
Yang Hong has also recently been in contact with various theater chains in the United States.
Taking advantage of the unimpeded release of "Lord of War", we established connections with major theater chains to facilitate the real landing of New World in the United States in the future.
If Yang Hong had not seized this opportunity, he would not have achieved his current position.
On Weibo, Lou Hua was very confused.
"How come everyone knows about Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu? Has Kung Fu been leaked?"
Netizens were also confused.
"What does Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu have to do with Kung Fu?"
Aren’t Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu from “The Return of the Condor Heroes”?
What is the relationship between the new movie "Kung Fu" and Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu?
Lou Hua was also confused, didn't the audience know? Then why did they keep discussing Xiao Long Nu's affairs on the Internet?
Lou Hua posted on Weibo: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Lou Hua. I have been away from the film industry for several years. This time I am making a comeback and playing the role of landlord in Kung Fu, also the role of Yang Guo."
Mao Qi also reposted this Weibo: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Mao Qi. I have been away from the film industry for more than ten years. This time I am making a comeback and playing the role of the landlady in "Kung Fu", which is also the role of Little Dragon Girl."
Many netizens didn’t know Mao Qi at all, so they started searching.
What was searched for was Mao Qi's appearance when he was young.
I was so drunk, 'This is the Little Dragon Girl in my mind!'
However, they also searched for Mao Qi's stills from "Kung Fu" and were stunned.
Ah? Little Dragon Girl? Are you sure... you're not mistaken?!
Wait a minute, Mao Qi plays Xiaolongnu... Han Zhou lets a senior like Mao Qi play Xiaolongnu... Will Lou Hua really not beat him?
Oh, by the way, Han Zhou is a mental patient.
Emmm... Yes, Han Zhou is a psychopath, so... why should we compete with a psychopath?
Can you control what the author writes, or can you control the onset of mental illness?
On the Internet, "Kung Fu" has become popular again.
Lu Xiaosheng, the head of the Internet department in charge of marketing at New World, saw the opportunity and knew it was time to promote it.
After all, there are not many channels for publicity before the New Year.
"Kung Fu" gathers the four mentors and the champion and runner-up . This Spring Festival, memories come back."
"Han Zhou will play a fool this time, An Lan will play a mute this time, and Jin Xiaoxi will also contribute a wonderful performance!"
Stupid netizens love gossip the most.
Until now, the songs sung by Han Zhou and An Lan are still under the name of "Foolish and Dumb Group".
It’s because of what Kim Hyo-hee said back then.
And now, the trailer has been released.
Jin Xiaoxi was dressed in a Shamatte style and said in a frivolous manner: "A fool, a mute, go to hell!"
This kind of program effect would be quite explosive in the entire entertainment industry.
A large number of stupid netizens flocked in.
"A replica of the scene, right?"
"To use the popular term nowadays, it should be called a reenactment of the case."
"I am dying of laughter. Did Kim Hyo Hee really play such a role?"
"By the way, why does Han Zhou always play the fool?"
"It doesn't matter if Han Zhou plays a fool or not. My goddess An has the best voice in China, why does she always play a dumb heroine?!"
The discussion about "Kung Fu" has been heated up, one wave after another, and it is overwhelming.
Seeing this situation, the distributors of "Ex-Files 2" and "Sword of Moye" had no choice but to grit their teeth and promote the games.
Use money to compete with the occasional popularity of "Kung Fu".
Soon, they discovered a problem.
There is still more than half a month to go before the Spring Festival. If we continue like this, the publicity and promotion expenses will be unbearable and we may not be able to make back our investment...
