The Harry Potter series releases one movie each year, accompanying fans in their growth.
This year marks the second year Harry Potter enters Hogwarts, and coincidentally, the second film is released.
Just like the first one.
This adaptation is again a huge success.
Because Lin Yuan has the Earth’s version as a reference, the screenplay he produces always meets the standard.
Especially in terms of box office.
The momentum of the second film is clearly stronger than the first one!
This is the charm of a film series; as long as the quality and reputation don’t crash, the box office will keep going higher!
"Another excellent adaptation!"
"While respecting the original, the pacing is handled very well."
"Looks like Fish Papa’s movie ranking is going up again."
"Top ten in literary, music, and dance rankings, now aiming for the film ranking; is he trying for top ten in all four charts?"
"That’s not impossible."
"Given the pace of one Harry Potter film a year, it might take many years for Fish Papa to enter the top ten in films."
"Who says Fish Papa only has Harry Potter?"
"He might turn around and write other film screenplays."
"Destined to be unprecedented, now Xian Yu is making new history almost at every step."
Great reviews abound.
The reputation is quite good.
Lin Yuan, of course, watched "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" with family and friends.
A large group including his sisters, mom, Jian Yi, and several from Yu Dynasty.
To avoid concerns during viewing, Sun Yaohuo went ahead and booked a whole theater.
"Last year we saw the first one, and this year the second; let’s make a promise to see the third together next year."
Everyone laughed heartily, without any reservations.
This is the joy of booking a whole theater; you can be rowdy without disturbing other viewers.
After the movie, Sun Yaohuo took everyone to dine at one of his restaurants for a late-night snack.
After discussing the just-finished movie, the conversation turned to Xia Fan’s globally popular new album.
Lin Yuan casually asked:
"So who’s interested in writing for the second album?"
Perhaps because his sisters and mom were present, Lin Yuan expected a scramble, but instead, everyone graciously smiled, indicating to go with his decision.
Madam Haoyun especially took the role of an elder sister:
Lin Yuan glanced around and finally looked at Chen Zhiyu.
Chen Zhiyu responded with surprise and delight: "Am I the next lucky one?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "Your ranking is the lowest."
Chen Zhiyu felt a bit hit, as he indeed holds the lowest ranking among Yu Dynasty’s singers.
Xia Fan patted Chen Zhiyu’s shoulder: "Keep singing well or you’ll have to return to inherit billions of assets."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Lin Yuan laughed along.
This is a secret known only within Yu Dynasty.
Chen Zhiyu is actually a rich second generation, with family assets worth at least tens of billions.
That’s why Chen Zhiyu’s father was always unhappy with his son entering the entertainment industry as a singer. Original content can be found at novel•fire.net
Inheriting the family business wouldn’t be appealing?
Yet, Chen Zhiyu valued his dream greatly, once even falling out with his family for singing and took off with his guitar alone into the music world when the family cut off his financial support.
In the early years, he went through huge struggles.
The entertainment industry is never a gentle place.
Later, as his talent emerged, Chen Zhiyu started gaining prominence in the music scene, even becoming a top-tier singer. Then, he faced a formidable great white shark, earning the title "Perennial Runner-up" and once felt dashed by Lin Yuan.
Eventually, everyone learned:
Chen Zhiyu chose "if you can’t beat them, join them."
Now, Chen Zhiyu has reconciled with his family, and his parents understood him, for in the realm of singing, their son has achieved success.
However, this joke is widely spread within Yu Dynasty.
Everyone teasingly reminds Chen Zhiyu that if he doesn’t do well singing, he’ll have to go back to inheriting billions.
When Lin Yuan first heard, he found it quite bizarre.
This joke about Chen Zhiyu seemed familiar from his previous life when hearing about JJ Lin.
After a round of fun, Lin Yuan said:
"Let’s chat about this album later; the key is how you want it to be."
Chen Zhiyu nodded earnestly.
After finishing the late-night snack, Lin Yuan had a private talk with Chen Zhiyu for a few hours.
After comprehensively understanding Chen Zhiyu’s ideas for the album, Lin Yuan took his car and drove home.
Once home, it was already midnight, and Lin Yuan went straight to sleep.
The next morning, Lin Yuan didn’t start on Chen Zhiyu’s album first; he opened a computer document and started typing away.
After about an hour of typing, Lin Yuan stretched.
"Finally finished writing ’Water Margin’."
Lin Yuan was writing "Water Margin."
Just now, this book was officially completed.
With daily updates of around thirty thousand words, the final progress was almost as Lin Yuan expected.
Lin Yuan contacted Jin Mu and sent the document over.
Jin Mu was overjoyed, habitually asking, "The new book finished so quickly?"
Realizing it’s nonsense and he has been saying it for years, Jin Mu quickly added:
"What does the title ’Water Margin’ mean?"
"Literally means stories happening by the water."
"This story is purely fictional; any resemblance to real people is purely coincidental."
Jin Mu didn’t ask further.
By now, January is ending, but not long has passed since Chu Kuang published the pure literary work "Siege."
Readers outside will be pleasantly surprised to see Chu Kuang releasing another new book so quickly!
Silver Blue Books announced the news of Chu Kuang’s new book "Water Margin" getting ready for release.
The promotional slogan reads:
"Peak of ensemble cast novel, with one hundred and eight main characters, an unprecedented panoramic military literary work!"
As soon as this news broke, readers were overjoyed!
Mind you, the second Harry Potter movie is still in hot screening.
After all, Xian Yu is just the screenwriter; Chu Kuang is the original author, the true father of Harry Potter.
Recently, with the movie screening.
Netizens’ discussion focus about the film has gradually shifted onto Chu Kuang.
Now with the release of old rascal’s new book, the attention naturally won’t be low, especially when it can carry the fervor of the movie’s hot showing—
"Old rascal is quite diligent recently!"
"The release speed of this new book is absurd; does his imagination never run out?"
"It’s not just the imagination; his energy seems inexhaustible too. How quick must his hands be to achieve such a high frequency of book release?"
"The key is that he maintains speed and quality!"
"Old rascal’s speed has always been monstrous; I’m more curious about the meaning of the book’s title?"
"What exactly is panoramic military literature?"
"Isn’t the most absurd thing the one hundred and eight main characters?"
"Is it even possible to manage so many main characters?"
"Previously, Fish Papa’s most ensemble work should be ’Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils’?"
"It should be a marketing ploy or something."
"Old rascal’s promotion language always sounds like marketing, but later we quite often realize that Silver Blue’s promotion is actually too conservative."
Whether it’s marketing or not, we’ll know when we read.
Such waiting is undoubtedly agonizing for readers, but time is fair to everyone.
On the last day of January.
The globally renowned "Water Margin" was officially published!
The system-modified version of "Water Margin," almost entirely unchanged in its first two Chapters.
In prophecy, 108 demon lords emerge.
Lin Yuan was very curious, in such a peaceful era, whether the "Water Margin," one of the four great classical novels, would fall like a meteor onto this equally azure planet, or just like a pebble in the water, creating only fleeting ripples?
ps: Some said Polluted White is writing a new book recently; actually, there’s not even a shadow of it yet, purely because I’ve been taking care of my health. Despite still sleeping somewhat late, mentally I’ve felt much better than before. Thanks for everyone’s understanding over this period; updates will gradually return to normal. By the way, I’m seeking everyone’s opinion on which songs Chen Zhiyu should sing, I’ve only managed to think of about half.
