Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 125 Come on, everyone, come on, who is looking down on whom?
Dilireba added: "By then, our dramas will probably air in the same year, and there will be a lot of fan fights to compete for the annual title. I just want to see if you, a top star, can surpass me in performance?"

Xu Yien didn't really care: "I'm not sure about that, but I'm willing to lose to you, as long as the show is broadcast effectively."

Losing to others may be shameful, but losing to your girlfriend is not shameful. Xu Yien, who has been strong all his life, would rather fall at the feet of a beautiful woman.

Dilireba was also happy to hear him speak so sweetly: "Hehe, we'll have to wait and see. I think you look better in black than in white. Remember to wear a black shirt and black trousers when you see me tomorrow."

Xu Yien was not used to it: "What kind of lewd words are you talking about?"

Don't be so straightforward!
I feel embarrassed to say this.

It's even more exaggerated than fans teasing me.

Dilireba: "What? I, a girl, have spoken so frankly. Why are you, a grown man, pretending? I've seen that you're a pervert for a long time. You do it several times every night, like a tiger, and you're still pretending?"

After hearing this, Xu Yien quickly typed a reply on his 26-key keyboard, "No, I didn't. I won't say anything. Luckily, I didn't turn on the speaker, otherwise I don't know what my employees would think."

Dilraba Dilmurat was grinning and laughing while watching over there.

She sent another voice message: "Make good use of the voice-to-text function. WeChat created this feature specifically for you to use."

Xu Yien listened to her suggestion, watched the voice-to-text conversion, smiled and pressed the voice button and said, "Okay, I'll video chat with you when I get home. I'm still in the business car now. When I get home, I'll have a midnight snack and video chat with you. You'll be so greedy!"

“Okay, that’s what you think. Your baby is starving, but not only do you not comfort him, you even pour oil on him. You are such a cruel man!”

"I'm going to eat snail noodles right in front of you. Are you going to hit me from the other end of the network cable? You can only swallow your saliva."

"Don't worry, I'll beat you up when we meet tomorrow, hehe."

"It's okay, I'll tell you later if I'm hungry today~"

"Tsk~ Then I'll go eat Japanese food. If I get fat, I'll say it's your fault. Anyway, it's always your fault."

"Tsk!" Xu Yien pressed the voice button and uttered the classic line: "You are ruthless, cold-blooded, and unreasonable!"

"You are heartless, you are cold-blooded, and you are unreasonable!"

Dilraba over there finished sending this voice message;
I found the Erkang emoticon pack and sent it over.

Xu Yien said: "I'm really angry. Why did you pick on me when you can pick on anyone else? If you pick on me, I won't be able to fight back. What's the point of picking on me? I was just angry for a while. Why did you do this to me?"

Dilraba Dilmurat commented: "+1 point for the cowardly group."

"I'm already in my 50s. Why are you treating me like this? I'm really sad."

"What happened?"

"Halfway through the year means that a year has passed and you're still tanking."

"No, it's only been three months this year, it's still early. But I see you're not taking on any acting roles or appearing on variety shows. Are you really going to give up for the next six months?"

"Don't worry, just get started! Enjoy your leisurely life."

Dilireba shook her head. Even though it was just a voice message, her expression was still adorable. She said, "You've always had a very leisurely life. What do you have to say?"

"That's because I devote all my time to you." Xu Yien said confidently.

They both laughed in front of their phone screens.

Her assistant looked at Dilraba and smirked, thinking to herself, "Are people really that silly when it comes to love? No wonder my bestie always thought I turned into a fool after falling in love."

Ah~ It really is the sour smell of love, so disgusting.

In fact, the chat records between lovers are fine, but if it’s between best friends, you can’t talk about it or show it to others.

Speaking of career, "Beginning of Love" will most likely be broadcast in the same year as Xu Yien's "Incense Like Crumbs".

The two are competing for the title of Cool Factory's annual champion. In short, neither of these two dramas has received particularly good reviews, but the popularity is still there.

The requirements cannot be too high.

Because the number of users of Cool Factory is much smaller than that of Tencent and Kiwi, everyone calls Cool Factory a failure.

Therefore, we cannot expect Cool Factory’s dramas to have the same effect as Kiwi. The results of Si Teng could only be achieved by broadcasting on three platforms at the same time.

Changyue Jinming did broadcast the effect of Kiwi, but without the male and female protagonists, there was no bonus. Even the male and female protagonists were originally from Bilibili, but now they are being criticized and become enemies.

Luo Yunxi lost his endorsement and Bai Mengyan's growth was slow.

Results are important, but reputation is equally important. It was Chen Duling who reaped the benefits.

In fact, Chen Duling simply replicated Luo's actions during the "Ashes of Love" period. The difference was that Deng Lun was still as dominant as ever, while Chen Duling reaped the most benefits and won seven or eight high-quality endorsements.

It seems like Li Yitong and Bai Mengyan, who look alike, have always been tied up, and now Tongtong has overtaken them.

Although she still doesn't have much traffic, she has made a lot of money from nearly twenty endorsements. She is no joke as the most popular actress.

Gao Ye claims to be a star, but where are her endorsements and resources? It's been a flop for just a few months. Honestly, it's useless. She's still not pretty enough. Chen Duling is a close friend of all YSL beauty brands, while Gao Ye pales in comparison. She's only a close friend of YSL's sub-franchises. Or is it because her marketing is too strong? Her performance across all platforms is significantly underperforming.

Take Douyin for example. After Li Yitong's sudden rise, almost every video of his got hundreds of thousands to millions of likes, and the comment section was full of close-up photos of An Xin and Yang Jian, each with hundreds of thousands of likes.

In comparison, Gao Ye only has two videos that have exceeded one million views, and the rest have returned to the normal level of a unknown celebrity. The two fans often quarrel with each other, and it is Li Yitong who suffers the loss when Gao Ye and Li Yitong can compete on the stage.

In the era of big data, data on all of Li Yitong's platforms are instantly updated.

To put it bluntly, Li Yitong is not really popular. After his meteoric rise, he just got the first place in new business in the first half of the year as the spokesperson for BYD, Safeguard, Jianchun, etc., and he has too many scripts lined up after filming the Misty Theater Platform S+ Xianxia.

It’s just that many actors nowadays have fake traffic, so it’s normal that they have few endorsements.

For example, Luo Yunxi and Deng Wei used the same routine, but were both killed by another male actor in the same drama. Those who understand will understand.

If the flow is not from water, there are only two reasons.

First, the reputation is too bad and it is totally not worth it.

Second, it looks too rustic and does not match the brand image.

No matter how much fans praise him, without any endorsements, it is basically certain that the actor's image is very unsophisticated. Although it is straightforward, it is correct and pertinent.

It's quite late now. When I got home, I took off my clothes, turned on the heater and lay on the sofa. The TV was on, but I didn't watch it. I was just browsing my phone. The main purpose was to make it seem less lonely. Bai Yu sent a message saying that she was taking Xu Yien to go clubbing.

Xu Yien rejected it verbally.

The male star goes to a nightclub.

That has to be a rumor.

You can't go. If you go, even if you don't do anything wrong, it will be considered a concubine selection based on rumors, which would be unfair.

Because you can't prove it yourself, you can't prove it yourself.

That means even if it is a rumor, you are still the chosen concubine.

This thing is quite difficult.

Bai Yu didn't force it. The filming of Qiao's Children has been completed now, and he will be able to join the crew of "The Silent Truth" seamlessly.

He is particularly popular in this type of TV drama market now. It can be said that the two of them are actors with two different styles.

In addition to the fantasy and fairy tales that can be used to represent Xu Yien's face, there are now many fans of ancient danmei who hope that Xu Yien will play their house.

It’s a pity that Xu Yien has retired now.

There weren't that many people criticizing "Guardian" back then, but now that we see platforms continuously releasing gay-themed adaptations online, the criticisms are naturally increasing. Shouldn't they give up?
For example, fans of "SPL" hope that Xu Yien will play Gu Yun, and fans of "Silent Reading" hope that Xu Yien will play Fei Du.

But no matter what they say, it is impossible for Xu Yien to play a gay drama now. Nowadays, more and more well-known actors are playing gay dramas.

For example, the recently aired "The Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red" starring Huang Xiaoming and Yuan Hua, "The Journey of Flower" starring Yi Yangqianxi and Huang Zitao, "The Gentlemen's League" starring Jing Boran and Song Weilong, and "The Abyss of Light" starring Fu Xinbo and Zhang Xincheng, are all danmei adaptations. Who looks down on whom?

Movie stars and drama stars all gathered together for team building to perform gay-themed works, all for the sake of traffic and popularity.

All of these have been broadcast, but there are too many that have not been broadcast, and they are basically starred by male actors who can be named today.

But to put it bluntly, the social atmosphere is not good, so it was banned and basically all buried. So many dramas are basically paid for by platforms and production companies. The cost of a gay drama is more than 100 million yuan, and the platforms are forced to lose a lot of money.

But to put it bluntly, if a gay drama wants to become popular, it actually depends on the quality of the drama.

After all, the four dramas listed above do not provide as much bonus to the actors as they imagined.

The three dramas "The Untamed", "Word of Honor" and "Guardian";
"Guardian" relies purely on acting, while the other two have acceptable plots.

Some readers on Qidian even think that "Word of Honor" is not a gay drama but a martial arts drama.

But it’s just that they are too gay and they are losing out to the market.

Otherwise, Dangai could still survive for a few more years.

When "Word of Honor" was broadcast, the two male protagonists were both 18th-tier "unknown" actors with little traffic.

The TV series was able to stand out to a certain extent because of the publicity from passers-by and the promotion by the public.

Later, various concerts and marketing activities won him the favor of fans, but also lost the support of passers-by.

A costume drama that can become a classic should not only stay in the fan circle, but should also move passers-by who have no filters and do not chase stars.

Nowadays, restricted by mainstream culture and the current environment, excessive marketing and neglect of the main goal have ultimately backfired.

"Dancing too much", the carnival under the fan economy is ultimately short-lived.
