A brash, irreverent top student in public, but a bookworm who studies with relentless dedication in private, x a detached, abstinent actor in public, but a foul-mouthed, gangster-like lunatic in private
Bonus scene, part 1:
One day, the movie emperor's prop gun accidentally slipped out of his pocket and hit the floor.
Lin Lang jolted in surprise, in full detective mode: "I've always thought it was suspicious that you're so young, yet own a mansion, luxury cars, and black cards, and spend all your time at home gaming!"
The movie emperor: "...It's fake." (picks it up)
Lin Lang: "An explanation is just a cover-up, and a cover-up is an admission! Don't worry, boss, I'm good at keeping secrets!"
The movie emperor: "..." (Huh? Good at keeping secrets in what way?)
Bonus scene, part 2:
Lin Lang, messaging on WeChat: "Holy crap, turn on Channel A! I saw someone at the Golden Donkey Awards who looks just like you! Except he's a little more handsome."
A photo from the Golden Donkey Awards ceremony arrived in the chat: "You mean this guy?"
Lin Lang: "Yeah, yeah! You saw him too?"
Another photo arrived, this time a selfie.
Lin Lang: "Holy shit! You even got his selfie?"
The other person was silent for a while. "Actually, I..."
Lin Lang: "Wait, I'm going to post this photo to my Moments and trick those idiots into thinking it's you! I'll tell them you're actually a famous actor! Hahaha! They'll definitely believe it. Play along in the comments, okay?"
The other person: "...Fine, as long as you're happy."
