Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 504: Expectations of the Crowd for a Crazy Boom

When he was bored, Xu Yien, the male lead of "Kuangchuan", couldn't sit idle either.

Holding my phone, I read what netizens have to say about "The Storm".

I had mixed feelings when watching it.

Everyone has their own opinion and there is no unified conclusion.

In the end, only the results after the broadcast can speak for itself.

I'm not too optimistic about Kuang Biao. Although it's the second collaboration between Xu Yien and Li Yitong, Chen Xiang Ruxie was one of Xu Yien's poorer performances in period dramas. Li Yitong has a naturally cold constitution, and I feel like this drama will be the same. I've even been asked if adding a love interest to a drama like this is necessary.

Xu Yien: Really? Just wait and see, this drama will be a hit, I told you so.

The latest version features "If Life Is Like First Encounter," "The Three-Body Problem," and "Kuang Biao" joining the fray. "Kuang Biao" can be a verb or a noun. Of all the dramas this year, I think these three are the top contenders for the annual online drama crown: "The Three-Body Problem," "Kuang Biao," and "Please Please Me." Coincidentally, they all happen to be two-character syllables.

Xu Yien's os: It's a pity that "Kuang Biao" is the only one that won the annual championship without a gap. The other two dramas combined are not as good as one-third of "Kuang Biao".

As a professional data analysis blogger, I'll make my predictions: Kuang Biao Yunhe will have a base of 5000 million, You You Yunhe will have a base of 5000 million, and The Three-Body Problem will have a base of 6000 million. The wrap-up special will feature Xu Yien and Tong Jie pulling off a perfect match.

Xu Yien: Are you overthinking it? You think 50 or 60 million episodes is cheap? It's only around 30 million episodes. Stop bragging. I can't really brag about it.

This wrap-up special has a really good quality, worthy of being one of the top contenders for the year's championship. It's unique and awesome. Although both of them play police officers, like Bo Zi in "Ice Rain and Fire," Xu Yien has a more relaxed vibe, while Bo Zi, also a danmei-themed character, is a bit stiff.

Xu Yien: Isn't this necessary? I'm going to win the Best Actor award. I'm 1.0, and Bozi is 2.0. We can't generalize.

I watched the preview of Sniper and saw a performance worthy of an Oscar nominee. I'm extremely optimistic about Xu Yien's future. The cast is great, with a lot of veteran actors. I predict it will be a hit with an average of 8000 million per episode and a chance to be nominated for a major TV award.

Xu Yien os: Well~ I like to hear this, but you still guessed wrong.

For a serious drama like this, the young actors’ performances are outstanding if they are not greasy or improper.

Xu Yien's level is definitely not that low.

But this is also a fact.

Although the TV ratings of Teacher VV's "Special Warfare Glory" are not good, the average online broadcast of more than 40 million per episode is already a very good result.

Logically speaking, it is necessary to reap the benefits and gain mainstream recognition.

But what is the result?
It’s because VV teacher Yan Poyue’s acting is too greasy, even if the show is good, it still has no bonus.

Then there was "My Human Fireworks" which made things worse. Just like "The Embers of the Long Moon", sometimes it is a good thing for a drama to perform well, but it is also necessary to ensure that the performance is good and the reputation is good.

If negative public opinion is too strong, the show will not reap any benefits even if it is a hit, and may even lose its reputation in the industry and commercial value.

Anyone who benefits from this basically means that the general public really likes this character.

Like Tongtong's Meng Yu, he gets scolded every day on Bilibili, Qidian, and Douban.

But Douyin and Kuaishou just like this character.

It was thanks to the role of Meng Yu that she received more than 20 commercial endorsements.

Even if they are all short-term endorsements, a business worth two or three million yuan can make a lot of money.

If the performance in the drama is really as bad as it is criticized, it will definitely not be recognized by offline audiences and commercial brands.

Merchants are not fools, money always flows to where it is valuable.

Tongtong doesn't have a lot of traffic, so she naturally relies on her appearance and popularity to get business.

Not to mention anything else, the endorsements of BYD and Safeguard, two brands with extremely high national popularity, are enough to show that Tongtong's Meng Yu is loved by everyone.

……

……

In the two days before the New Year, Xu Yien lived a very comfortable life.

Xu Yien occasionally goes to Zhu Yilong's place for a meal, or just stays at home watching TV series and movies, eating snacks and exercising.

This relaxed life is really enjoyable. Although his parents know that Xu Yien can only go home after the Spring Festival Gala, they can't help but miss him.

Basically, his parents would call every day to ask when Xu Yien would be home.

It’s a pity that Xu Yien’s girlfriends either went back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year or were busy with their careers.

If it weren't for this, Xu Yien wouldn't be the only one left alone at home.

Zhu Yilong also has a Spring Festival Gala performance this year, and of course he is in Yanjing now. He was quite happy to joke about Xu Yien's spiky hairstyle.

Xu Yien chuckled and replied: "Don't laugh at me, you were bald before too."

Zhu Yilong waved his hand and said, "That's not right. The one I filmed when I was filming the major events of my life wasn't bald, it was a buzz cut. Yours is a bald head."

"Don't worry about the details."

"Hahahahaha."

"What are Long's plans for this year?"

"My top priority is still making movies. I'll shoot if there's a good script. I'm not planning on taking on TV dramas for now."

"You only make movies and not TV series?"

"I just want to adjust my state. If there are no good movie scripts, I will take a good rest. I hope that "Life Events" released this year will be a box office hit."

Xu Yien asked knowingly, "Has the release date been set?"

Zhu Yilong replied: "The release date will be set soon, it will be during the Qingming Festival."

"That's it."

"I'll invite you to come and see me then."

"Sure, haha."

The Qingming Festival period has never been a good time, not to mention the current severe mask situation.

"Life Events" will be withdrawn and the schedule will be changed no matter what.

If "Life Events" was really released during the Qingming Festival, it would definitely not have such a high box office.

Just thinking about it, the production company still had foresight. After the withdrawal, Long Ge had to be tortured for the movie to escape the schedule and was not optimistic about it in the fan circle.

But the more this happens, the more satisfying it will be to be slapped in the face in the end, right?

The 17 billion box office and the unanimous approval of the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor left the haters helpless and furious, cursing "Emperor".

It’s so refreshing just thinking about how the pretentious person would get slapped in the face. It’s such a cool article.

Xu Yien has never been so pretentious and slapped in the face.

The opportunity should be coming soon. Even though his "Sniper" was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, the judges, Brother Long, voted unanimously in favor of the highly acclaimed Best Actor.

No matter what, Xu Yien will be ridiculed. The fact that a top star with zero votes was beaten is itself a very dramatic thing.

Although it is still unclear whether "The Journey Home" can win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, Xu Yien is still very confident.

The quality of the work and the acting skills are clearly there, there is no need to worry.

Xu Yien raised his glass and said, "I wish our Brother Long a big box office success."

Zhu Yilong clinked glasses with him and said, "I also wish you a big box office success during the Spring Festival. Although it is a small- to medium-budget production, it is amazing to be able to work with Director Zhang Yimou. I envy you."

"You envy me for nothing, hahahahaha, I believe 'Zhou Chu Eliminates the Three Evils' will perform very well."

"Yes, I think so too!"

Zhu Yilong smiled, "This script is really good. I think it's quite interesting, especially the head-explosion scene. If it's shot well, it will be very satisfying. It's my first time playing a pervert, and I'm quite excited, haha."

"Of course it will work. I'll go to your set and watch it."

"Was the movie you and Guo Fan made filmed after The Wandering Earth 2 wrapped?"

"Yes, I have high expectations for the film I'm working on with Directors Guo and Rao. We'll start filming in April, and the producers are determined to release it during the National Day holiday. From what I've seen of the script, it should be quite a hit, and it won't be a problem for it to drain the National Day box office."

"I heard they initially cast you as the second male lead?"

"That's right. They said there were two male leads, but in reality, he was just the second male lead. Later, I fought for the lead role myself. Director Guo Fan asked around for the directors I'd worked with before, and after some consideration, he finally agreed. It's not that I dislike the second male lead role, it's just that it's not very challenging for me."

“It’s good to be able to get a role that I like.”

This time, it was Zhu Yilong who raised the glass.

It's not alcohol, it's Sprite.

Xu Yien also raised his hand to clink glasses with him.

After the Spring Festival Gala is over, Brother Long will join the crew of "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils".

In order to avoid being accused of plagiarism, Xu Yien changed many details of this movie so that he would not lose the lawsuit.

Even the two plagiarized names, Chen Guilin and Chen Hui, were changed.

Sicheng has changed his name to one that is more idol-like according to his own aesthetic taste.

The male lead and the second male lead were renamed Shen Guilin and Chen Hui respectively.

It sounds good and looks good, and the duplication rate is not as high as Chen Guangzhou and Chen Huo.

Chen Sicheng specially modified some parts of the plot, and after these modifications and patching, it is basically impossible to tell that it is a plagiarized work.

Because of this, Xu Yien will have no worries.

After finishing filming "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils", Brother Long will be relatively free because there are not many scenes to shoot.

Zhu Yilong is taking the route of avoiding traffic, and would rather have nothing than take on bad works. It seems that he is going home to take care of his children.

Occasionally, when there is business activity, he would come out for a walk and his life was much more comfortable than Xu Yien's.

Not to mention that Xu Yien also knew that his "Life Events" was scheduled to win the 2022 Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor.

A little envious, but not much.

Because Xu Yien is still young.

This year, Xu Yien will have to seamlessly join the crew of three dramas, "The Journey Home", "Can't Hide Secretly" and "The Third Brigade".

In 2022, in addition to the opening film "Sniper", two high-quality works "The Legend of Mir" and "The Journey Home" will be continuously released.

There will be no break in the 23 years, and "Kuang Biao", "Yu Gu Yao", "She Vanished" and "The Third Squadron" are still dominating the screen.

This is what Xu Yien deserves after five years of not becoming famous.

Sometimes you just have to work hard on your acting skills to have a future, provided you have talent.

Otherwise, you won’t be able to make it no matter how hard you try.

No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain and become a laughing stock.

The future looks bright.

When he has some free time, Xu Yien needs to take a good rest.

Thinking back to this year's Spring Festival Gala, there were actually familiar female stars on stage.

Song Qian treated the breakup coldly without any contact, and Song Zuer, who had not been seen for a long time, was thrown into the glaze.

Hmm... after thinking about it carefully, Xu Yien decided that it would be better not to meet Song Qian because it would be awkward.

He and Song Qian actually have quite a good understanding of each other, and Song Qian thinks the same now.

Rather than having an awkward meeting, it’s better not to meet.

Wait until the Spring Festival Gala's "Unforgettable Tonight" ends.

Xu Yien decided to dedicate the first white salute of the New Year to Joey Yung.

The reason was simple, because the others were not in Yanjing, and it was too awkward to get along with Song Qian who handled the breakup coldly.

In comparison, Joey, who has no emotions, is the best choice.
