Chapter 228: PS-Chapter 225 The Song Lu Chen Sings for Chen Fei'er



Lu Chen had never imagined that one day he would be able to hold this goddess, adored by millions, in his arms. Chen Fei'er had a great figure, with long legs, a slim waist, and a balanced physique; her beauty radiating like jade and her aura like orchids. 

Holding her felt as if he was embracing the entire world. It was an immense satisfaction. 

Chen Fei'er did not resist Lu Chen's bold act; instead, she turned her face to lean against his broad chest, a sweet smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, and gently wrapped her arms around his waist. 

The small workshop was enveloped in a faintly romantic atmosphere. Everything was unspoken. 

After a long while, Chen Fei'er suddenly lifted her head and playfully glared at Lu Chen, saying, "Have you had enough of hugging?" 

Lu Chen chuckled and suddenly leaned down to kiss her forehead. Chen Fei'er's pretty face flushed, and her delicate fingers playfully pinched Lu Chen's waist with considerable force. 

Lu Chen knew this was the extent of what she could handle and reluctantly let go. After all, Chen Fei'er was not a teenage girl; she quickly recovered from her shyness. 

She brushed her disheveled hair and asked, "When will you finish writing this script?" 

Lu Chen took her hand and sat back down together, saying, "About two weeks or so." 

This script, "Autumn in My Heart," had a total of 20 episodes. 

Calculating at an average of 15,000 words per episode, that amounted to 300,000 words, equivalent to a long novel. 

Subtracting what he had already completed, an average speed of over 20,000 words a day was undoubtedly impressive. However, with the memories from the dream world, writing it posed little difficulty; it was merely a matter of making appropriate adjustments to the plot. 

After all, this drama was a Korean drama. Chen Fei'er was surprised: "That's too fast! By the way, why do the characters in the script have Korean names?" 

Although she was a Heavenly Queen in the music industry, she was not unfamiliar with the film and television industry and knew that writing a script was not a simple task. 

Lu Chen had managed to write an episode in just over ten days, and it was original content! 

Chen Fei'er was certainly astonished. 

Moreover, the male protagonist and supporting characters, Yin Junxi, Yin Enxi, Han Taixi, Cui Xinai, etc., all had names with a Korean flair. 

Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's simple. If this drama gets made, I want it to flow back to Korea." 

Flowing back to Korea! 

Chen Fei'er's expression suddenly became a bit strange. She hadn't expected Lu Chen to have such big ambitions! The domestic fashion culture, pop music scene, and TV dramas were significantly influenced by Korea. 

For example, the popular youth idol dramas featuring rich heirs and beautiful girls were heavily inspired by Korean dramas. In recent years, many hit Korean dramas have been introduced domestically, achieving high ratings. 

The so-called "flowing back" refers to domestic TV dramas competing in the Japanese and South Korean markets. Successful dramas that flow back to Japan and South Korea are usually well-produced historical dramas or genre dramas like Xianxia. 

There are numerous youth idol dramas produced domestically, and there have been precedents for them flowing back to Japan and South Korea, but they have all flopped in ratings. The reason is simple: these tropes are leftovers from others; how could there be a market? 

So, in Chen Fei'er's view, Lu Chen was a bit unrealistic, especially since he was writing a relatively rare tragic romance drama. Currently popular youth idol dramas are all have happy endings! 

Chen Fei'er liked this story very much; she had the life experience and depth to understand the power of tragedy. However, the mainstream audience for youth idol dramas consists of "sensitive" young people! 

Seeing the protagonist suffer even a little could lead to dramatic reactions, just like popular online novels, where very few authors write tragedies, those who do often end up struggling financially. 

Those who enjoy tragic romance dramas are usually older housewives, watching stories about midlife crises, conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, and urban emotional dramas. 

As a youth idol drama, "Autumn in My Heart" was indeed too tragic! 

Chen Fei'er thought the story was great and was willing to support Lu Chen in making it, wanting to play the heroine herself. But she had little expectation for the ratings, just getting it aired on TV would be a success. 

Of course, Chen Fei'er did not want to dampen Lu Chen's enthusiasm and confidence. 

She knew about the grievances Lu Chen faced during the last casting, so even if he was being a bit willful now, what did it matter? 

Thus, this Heavenly Queen said earnestly, "I know the president of KGS TV in Korea; I can help." 

Chen Fei'er had participated in several Sino-Korean and Sino-Japanese song festivals, and KGS, the third-largest TV station in Korea, was the organizer of the Sino-Korean song festival. 

She also had a considerable fan base and popularity in Korea. 

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'm just thinking about it; first, I need to finish the episodes. Let's treat it as a way to train myself." 

"Actually, I didn't have much confidence at first, but now that you're willing to be the heroine, I think that might add a point or two to the national ratings, right?" 

Chen Fei'er couldn't help but laugh at his words, rolling her eyes at him: "You're being ridiculous!" 

A point or two in national ratings would mean it was a very popular TV drama; this was not the 80s or 90s anymore. 

She said, "Let me help you contact a capable film and television company. Since it's a weekend drama, the script doesn't need to be rushed; we can write it while filming." 

The biggest feature of weekend dramas is their high production flexibility. After the first few episodes are filmed and aired, the story and characters can be adjusted based on audience feedback. 

Weekend dramas in the country have matured significantly, and experienced film and television companies have established complete production processes, combined with high-tech post-production editing, which has greatly reduced costs aside from actor salaries compared to the past. 

The real challenge lies in how to push the finished product into the market, first, there must be buyers. 

There are countless film and television companies in the capital city, and many practitioners in this field, but the resources of various TV stations are limited. Without sufficient connections, trying to get on a popular channel is undoubtedly a pipe dream. 

Even as an online drama, major websites with high click rates are also very selective. 

Of course, with Chen Fei'er as the heroine, "Autumn in My Heart," even if it is a tragic drama, would never fall into obscurity, but a point or two in national ratings was still hard to imagine! 

Lu Chen held her hand and nodded; although he didn't say thank you, his eyes conveyed everything. Without Chen Fei'er's help, finding a reliable partner would indeed be very difficult for him, especially since he was just a vagabond singer and not a famous actor, lacking connections in the film and television industry. 

Not understanding the rules and rashly entering could easily lead to being misled and ending up with a bad reputation. Lu Chen was not afraid of difficulties, but he would not refuse Chen Fei'er's support. 

Because he had the ability to repay the favor. This "Autumn in My Heart" was the beginning of his foray into the film and television industry. 

Under Lu Chen's affectionate gaze, Chen Fei'er suddenly felt shy. 

She softly said, "Lu Chen, sing me a song, and then I'll go back." 

Lu Chen nodded: "Okay." 

Chen Fei'er's eyes sparkled: "It has to be a new song, one I haven't heard before." 

She had known Lu Chen for quite some time, but her feelings for him had always been mysterious. Lu Chen seemed like a vast treasure trove, with no one knowing how much wealth was buried inside. 

It was this sense of mystery that attracted her, making her unable to resist wanting to get closer and uncover the secrets! 

Lu Chen nodded: "Alright!" 

He picked up the guitar that was placed nearby and held it in his arms. Although he had just eaten a hearty meal, and it was not easy to perform at his best, this song did not require high-level skills. 

"This song is called..." 

He looked at Chen Fei'er and said, "The song Lu Chen sings for Chen Fei'er." 

The song Lu Chen sings for Chen Fei'er? 

Chen Fei'er couldn't help but laugh; she leaned over, resting her elbow on the table, her right hand supporting her chin, her long hair cascading down, exuding a myriad of charms! 

Lu Chen was almost mesmerized. Fortunately, he had some resistance to this sister; he cleared his throat and strummed the opening notes. 

"I want to take you flying everywhere, 

Traveling around the world to see, 

No worries, no sadness, 

Free and easy, my heart is so bright. 

Forget the pain, forget that place, 

Let's set off together to wander, 

Though we have no luxurious clothes, 

Our hearts are filled with hope. 

We want to fly to that distant place to take a look, 

This world is not so desolate. 

We want to fly to that distant place to gaze, 

This world is still full of light! 

..." 

This song, in Lu Chen's memory, was called "Zhang San's Song." 

It had been covered by many famous vagabond singers, each interpreting it in different styles, but the simple and unadorned melody retained its deep emotional power. 

As Lu Chen sang this song for Chen Fei'er, he expressed the passionate feelings in his heart. With a simple accompaniment and a soothing melody, there were no extravagant performances or deliberate techniques, just pure and clean! 

Chen Fei'er was entranced. Although she had not experienced much hardship, she had seen the splendor and noise of the world, yet she had never known that such a pure and warm voice existed in this chaotic world. 

It was a sound that made one want to stop and yearn to travel freely like a dandelion. 

Perhaps many years later, even if she did not walk hand in hand with Lu Chen, she would absolutely never forget hearing such a song on this deep night! 

The song was called: The Song Lu Chen Sings for Chen Fei'er. 

"… 

I want to take you flying everywhere, 

Traveling around the world to see, 

No worries, no sadness, 

Free and easy, my heart is so bright. 

Forget the pain, forget that place, 

Let's set off together to wander, 

Though we have no luxurious clothes, 

Our hearts are filled with hope. 

We want to fly to that distant place to take a look, 

This world is not so desolate, 

We want to fly to that distant place to gaze, 

This world is still full of light! 

…"
