Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 432 Temporary Press Conference (34)

After recording "Sound of My Dream"...

Shen Yan boarded the vehicle under the protection of security personnel.

Before getting into the car, he bowed to his fans and said, "Everyone, go home now, it's almost midnight!"

Fans chanted "Professor Do!" in various ways.

So frustrating...

The love and support of fans can sometimes be a burden!
Excessive attention and unrealistic expectations.

Excessive attention can make idols feel monitored and restricted…

Unrealistic expectations: Fans often have high expectations of their idols, hoping they can maintain a perfect image and constantly bring surprises and touching moments.

However, such expectations are sometimes difficult to meet.

When you fail to meet their expectations, they can easily turn from fans to haters!

Shen Yan could only try his best...

Oh, tonight is the finale of "My Love from the Star"...

Many people expressed dissatisfaction.

Although Cheon Song-yi said to the camera, "It's precisely because I know he could disappear at any moment that I feel every second we spend together is so precious..."

It appears to be an open-ended story, but it doesn't provide a complete ending...

It's neither a happy ending nor a tragedy...

A lot of people online are complaining that it's a poorly made ending!
Of course, the real-time viewership ratings from CSM52 cities once exceeded 9%, securing its position as the top drama of the year.

……

Chen Xu looked at the large screen in the shopping mall across from the hotel, then whispered to Shen Yan, "I heard that Dilraba has become famous. She's taken on several commercial promotions and brand events!"

"...A script offer?"

"Yes, there are many, but Sister Yang is adhering to the principle of 'better to have none than a bad one,' and is currently helping her filter through the scripts..."

“That’s good,” Shen Yan thought for a moment and then simply made a phone call to Dilraba.

Dilraba has definitely become a star!

Although the second female lead in "My Love from the Star" had few scenes and her character wasn't very likable, the drama was so popular that its scale was huge, and even though her role was far smaller than the male and female leads, she was still a force to be reckoned with.

Often, people can remember the supporting characters of a hit drama, but they may not remember the male and female leads of a drama that didn't achieve much success.

Moreover, "My Love from the Star" wasn't just any ordinary hit...

A phenomenal hit!
Moreover, Liu Renmei, played by Dilraba, is not a traditional second female lead—she doesn't compete with the female lead for the male lead.

In the end, he continued his love-hate relationship with Cheon Song-yi...

Many people like it!

Faced with the sudden influx of traffic, Dilraba was a little stunned—she was only a sophomore in college.

Fortunately, she's on winter break.

Moreover, Yang Siwei is very experienced and got her several purely profitable commercial activities and film and television offers, which she needs to review...

It's better not to take on a bad role!

I won't accept roles where the amount of screen time can't be guaranteed!
They cast her in "The Empress of China" and "Fleet of Time".

"...The Empress of China? You're playing Wu Zetian?"

Dilraba quickly explained, "No... I play Consort Xiao, while Wu Zetian is played by Fan Bingbing..."

Shen Yan paused for a moment, then nodded: "...I know Consort Xiao. She was mutilated by Wu Zetian and turned into a human pig... She's very famous. There are only three recorded cases of people being turned into human pigs: Consort Qi of the Han Dynasty, Empress Wang of the Tang Dynasty, and Consort Xiao!"

"...What does 'human pig' mean?"

"Zhi, meaning pig, and renzhi, meaning human pig, is an extremely cruel form of punishment, meaning to turn a person into a pig. This punishment involves chopping off limbs, deafening the ears, gouging out the eyeballs, cutting off the nose, damaging the vocal cords, and shaving off the head, and finally throwing the person into the latrine, so that from a distance, they resemble a wriggling pig..."

"Ah...how cruel!"

"They probably won't film these... Don't worry, after all, it's mostly Mary Sue plots starring Fan Xiaopang, so it's impossible for them to film these kinds of scenes."

"I'm not scared..." Dilraba changed the subject: "I just checked Weibo, and it's all trending for 'My Love from the Star'... Are we going to make a sequel?"

“It probably can’t be filmed,” Shen Yan shook his head: “The plot is too difficult to adapt…” “I saw on a marketing account that someone offered you 100 million to star in the second movie!”

"Don't listen to the nonsense from those marketing accounts... If there's a sequel, they'll definitely let you know."

After chatting for a while, Shen Yan hung up the phone…

Dilraba is going to act in "The Empress of China"...

Shen Yan hadn't seen this drama... well, not that he hadn't. He'd read a review back then that roughly said, "Starting with 'Curse of the Golden Flower,' similar 'explosive breast-squeezing costumes' began to dominate period dramas... those breasts practically leaping out of the screen, shouting: 'Come on! Pinch me! Pinch harder!'"

There was a lot more content after that, but Shen Yan couldn't remember it all. He immediately watched a few episodes focusing on Da Bai Nai...

There were too many flaws, I couldn't take it anymore and left.

However, the show's ratings were quite high...

Director Gao Yijun is the director of the B group for "Empresses in the Palace".

The TV series and film versions of "Fleet of Time" were also launched simultaneously...

The TV series "With You" premiered at the end of February, with the movie version released simultaneously.

The grades shouldn't be too bad...

……

The next day, early in the morning, Shen Yan arrived at the airport—he was there to pick someone up.

Deng Chao, Tong Dawei, Huang Xiaoming, and Nini will be coming over; the five of them will be recording the premiere celebration for "American Dreams in China" together tonight…

Brother Yan came to pick me up personally, which shows how much he values ​​it!

However… "My Love from the Star" was so popular that as soon as he arrived at the airport, the media and reporters swarmed around him as if they had caught a whiff of its popularity.

"Brother Yan, will there be a sequel to 'My Love from the Star'?"

"Brother Yan, Zhang Ziyi said she regrets not taking on the role in 'My Love from the Star.' What do you have to say about that?"

"Brother Yan, Jing Tian posted on Weibo that she's very grateful to you. How are you going to respond?"

Shen Yan glanced at the media and reporters who were acting like madmen, and quickly said, "Everyone, please don't push... How about this, let's find a larger open space, and I'll answer any questions you have!"

Let me chat with the reporters for a bit…

Otherwise, they really will keep bothering us!
It will affect passersby at the airport...

The staff led them to the lounge, and Shen Yan followed shortly after; "Have you had breakfast?"

"No...we stayed outside the hotel for one night!"

"You're filming me? What did you film?"

"We didn't get any footage, except for you making a phone call..."

"Alright..." Shen Yan nodded, then called over airport staff and asked them to provide some food and drinks: "I'll pay for them when I leave!"

After waiting a while, several staff members brought over several boxes of bread and milk. Shen Yan invited the reporters to eat first, and then swiped his card…

"Speak, what do you want to ask?"

"sequel…"

"A sequel... I don't have any plans for now," Shen Yan answered honestly. "They originally wanted to pad it out to 30 episodes, but I didn't agree, so it's 28 episodes... I feel like 'My Love from the Star' has told enough of its story..."

"Zhang Ziyi expressed regret for not taking on the role in 'My Love from the Star.' What are your thoughts on this?"

"Thank you for recognizing 'My Love from the Star'..."

"Gone?"

Shen Yan shrugged: "I've already thanked her for her approval... What more do you want? Should I set off firecrackers to celebrate?"

"...What about Jing Tian?"

"I'm still very grateful for Jing Tian's trust in me... You know, most actors look down on TV dramas, especially idol dramas, because they think they're not artistic enough..."

"Soap opera?"

"Yes, they treat idol dramas like soap operas... but in fact, top-tier soap operas can be broadcast globally, like Friends and The Big Bang Theory..."
