Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 788 The Tallest Among the Short Ones
Some of Yang Mi’s fans like to find fault with everything.

The fans took the initiative to criticize the studio and asked Yang Mi to work with Jin Helong. After a year and a half of cooperation, the results were surprisingly good, but these fans still felt that it was not okay.

The reason was that he felt that Yang Mi's stunning beauty could not be displayed, so he asked the studio to remove Jin Helong and replace him with another makeup artist.

Yang Mi’s rational fans knew it was true at first sight.

Get out of here.

At first glance, you can tell they are fake fans who are trying to be evil.

joke?

This transformation doesn't work, and it will probably be even worse if someone else does it.

Fans should be more rational.

Even if there is a problem, it is the photographer's problem, not the makeup artist's problem. Changing the photographer is a better option.

After all, Jin Helong and Yang Mi contributed many beautiful looks during their collaboration, which is already much better than before. If they still need to make mistakes, there is no need to do so.

Female celebrities are still very curly in terms of styling and makeup.

Currently, most female celebrities are divided into two camps.

Jin Helong and Wang Yafei, no other makeup artist can achieve this effect.

Male celebrities are not so curly.

If you are ugly, no matter how good the makeup artist is, it will be useless.

If you are handsome, you don’t need to hire a makeup artist. You can just work with a styling studio.

For example, Xu Yien is currently collaborating with 09_space.

The aesthetics of this studio are still very online.

Gong Jun, Zeng Shunxi, Lei Datou and Zhang Xiaofei all work with this studio.

Without Xu Yien’s popularity, it can only be said that he is not handsome enough or popular enough.

When Gong Jun first became famous, her clothing styles were very popular. In fact, it was not a problem with the style, but a problem with the person.

Fame brings prosperity, and when you become famous, you will get more marketing and your appearance will attract a lot of attention.

Not to mention that he himself has a somewhat feminine temperament and outstanding fashion expression.

Now, after several TV series failed, Gong Jun has almost become a nobody.

Naturally, no one pays attention to his appearance.

Out of the 200,000 active fans, only 50,000 or 60,000 are left. If we continue to push forward, and these few remaining fans who pay money also run away, we won’t even be able to get any business.

Of course the brand wants to make money. If it doesn’t, they will optimize you as a spokesperson.

It doesn't matter if you just block one movie.

A-list stars all have thick blood.

Who hasn’t failed yet?
The box office forecast for Wang Junkai's new movie "Hedgehog" is only 1.51 million yuan, and the forecast for Shen Teng's suspense movie "Reverse Scale" that breaks out of his comfort zone is only 1.62 million yuan.

But they have had works before, so a small failure doesn't count.

Not to mention that Shen Teng's summer movie "Catching Dolls" sold out for 32 billion yuan.

If a movie fails, just don't brag about yourself. For example, Shen Teng was ridiculed badly by the ticket group because of "The Wandering Earth". Because his fans had previously stepped on Jia Sheng and Ma Li, this time it was a boomerang.

If you want to carry the box office, you still have to look at your comfort zone and the subject matter.

If the subject matter is out of one's comfort zone, there is no guarantee that it will not fail.

Even Zhang Yi in the original time and space had flopped with "The Knife's Edge" and "The Priceless Treasure".

As long as several films don’t fail in a row, this won’t have much impact.

Xu Yien does not have high expectations for the "Priceless Treasure" in which he stars. He only wants a box office of 2 million to 3 million yuan. He cannot be too confident in himself, otherwise it will be easy to suffer an epic Waterloo like Long Ge's "Negatives Make a Positive".

At the beginning, the fans all boasted that "Negatives Make Positive" could break the 10 billion box office.

This is too pompous.

All I can say is that before the work is officially released, it’s better not to exaggerate too much.

Otherwise, failure will backfire.

It is necessary to create momentum, but you can't pop champagne at halftime.

When "Hedgehog" is released next year, Xiaokai will probably have to invite Xu Yien to the premiere, so he has to give him this face.

We’ll talk about it when the time comes.

I can only say that the film industry in 2024 is still a bit cold compared to previous years. The top films are well-received, but the middle films have mostly failed.

This is also the reason why Xu Yien took on the role in "A Small Shop at the Edge of the Cloud".

Pick the tallest one among the short ones.

At least it’s among the top three in the summer season.

Enough bragging rights.

You can't not make movies, right?

In the original time and space, a box office of 5 million yuan was enough for "A Small Shop at the Edge of the Cloud", not to mention that with Xu Yien in it, it could reach around 8 million yuan.

Not only is the film industry cold, but the TV series are also a bit cold.

There were some hit dramas in the first half of 2024, but there were only a few popular dramas in the summer season.

For example, the most popular drama in the original time and space during the summer of 2024, "Longing and Missing You 2", had an average of just over 2 million per episode, and "Tang Dynasty Weird Stories " is also estimated to have an average of just over million during its peak broadcast period.

"Nine Prosecutors" is performing strongly, but the estimated average per episode is only more than 30 million. However, this is also one of the top works of Kiwi in the year.

Overall, it is still a bit mediocre than in the past. On the contrary, the broadcast effects of "Joy of Life 2", "Mo Yu Yun Jian" and "Rose Story" before the summer season were very good.

Although several platforms were affected, Kiwi had the greatest impact. It has been in a slump for 24 years and no one can save it.

Speaking of which...

If "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Where the Wind Goes" cannot show that Liu Yifei is awesome in the TV drama market, then "The Story of Rose" can really show that she is awesome in the TV drama market.

The average viewership for all episodes of Kuyun is 8453 million, ranking first among modern dramas in the past four years.

This result is still very exaggerated, it can definitely be praised as a hit drama.

It's no wonder some Fei Fei fans like to freak out; with this kind of performance, it's hard not to be pretentious. It's even higher than the 7651 million average viewership for all episodes of "Journey to the West" during its peak broadcast period on Kuyun.

This is enough to prove that Feifei still has a dominant position in the TV drama market.

The data of "The Story of Rose" is higher than that of Yang Mi's "Moon Red" and "Harbin 1944" combined. It is difficult for Yang Mi not to be ridiculed.

The first tier of the 85 flowers today is indeed Liu Yifei and Ni Ni.

Although Zhao Liying has achieved remarkable success in the TV drama circle, her overall fashion status is too low. If she had clothing and jewelry endorsements, she could also be ranked in the first tier.

The key is that her temperament is a bit rustic, which is not welcomed in the fashion circle.

Once she overcomes the problem of looking too rustic, Zhao Liying will be able to soar into the fashion world.

The results are here.

If you hone your temperament, you will have everything you need.

……

……

The inspiration party ended and the artists left one after another.

Li Yitong made a video call to Xu Yien.

My look today is so beautiful, I have to let him see it.

soon.

Xu Yien answered the call.

It was very late, and Xu Yien was on the second-floor balcony of Wang Yingying's convenience store preparing to shoot a night scene. He picked up the phone and started chatting.

Xu Yien sincerely exclaimed: "Wow, today is so beautiful."

"You are handsome too~" Li Yitong accepted the compliment and responded to it.

Zhou Ye was watching from the side with a resentful look on his face.

She sat on the recliner with a pout, just staring.

Xu Yien felt like he was being stared at, and he felt like a thorn in his back. He turned his head and saw Zhou Ye's expression, a little embarrassed. He walked downstairs before continuing to chat with Li Yitong.

Li Yitong was sitting in the car on the way back to the hotel. She said jokingly, "What's wrong? Zhou Ye is staring at you?"

"You guessed it so accurately?" Xu Yien was a little surprised.

Li Yitong looked a little smug: "There's no need to guess. That smirk on your face just now was just a bit embarrassing. Zhou Ye is also your girlfriend. If she stared at you while you were talking on the phone with me, you would definitely be embarrassed. There's no one else to look for."

She no longer cared about Xu Yien's philandering. After all, she was seduced when he was dating Dilraba Dilmurat.

You can't interfere. If you really interfere in this matter, you are bound to break up.

Xu Yien would never give up the entire forest for her own tree. She felt that she understood him quite well.

Although he was very happy during the relationship and treated me well, he was still a scumbag.

Let him be a scumbag, as long as I like him.

Xu Yien said: "I saw this event on Weibo. You are the most beautiful today."

"Really?" Li Yitong asked knowingly, just wanting to hear him praise her more.

She then asked, "Who do you think is prettier, Yang Ying, Yang Mi, or me?"

"I've already told you that you're the most beautiful today. They're not as pretty as you. It's useless for anyone else to come."

"Compared to Zhou Ye?"

"Both beautiful."

"Do I have to choose one?"

Xu Yien didn't know how to answer. Zhou Ye had already followed and stood on the stairs listening for a while. It was not appropriate for anyone to say anything now.

Helpless, Xu Yien had to play tricks: "I'll wear a wig, so that I can be more beautiful than all of you."

Li Yitong curled her lips, smiled and said, "Tsk~ Really, you should chat with me more tonight. It's a pity that you are not here, and you can't appreciate such beautiful clothes."

"It doesn't matter. You look beautiful every day anyway, and you look good in anything you wear." Xu Yien didn't care much.

Although we cannot feel the beauty of Tongtong's new skin, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Maybe there will be better-looking designs in the future. Who knows?

Li Yitong said: "I'm currently in contact with an affordable luxury brand, but I don't know when I can get the endorsement."

"Let's just cooperate for now. They'll probably announce it after a while of consideration. What brand is it?"

"Longchamp is a pretty good affordable luxury brand."

"Have not heard."

"You guys, you've never heard of normal."

Xu Yien smiled and said, "Then I congratulate you in advance, but why don't you ask me for help? I can help you promote one or two brand endorsements."

"No, I'm self-reliant~" Li Yitong said with a smile: "If you can do it yourself, do it yourself."

In 24 years, she will be officially announced as the brand ambassador of Longchamp, and the official announcement will be made simultaneously on internal and external websites as well as in regional broadcasts.

Longchamp’s previous brand spokesperson was Wang Ziwen, but her treatment was not as good as hers.

What's more, Wang Ziwen's contract has expired, and the brand may have changed the title standards, and the highest title may be brand ambassador.

Xu Yien chuckled: "You are right."

"Yeah, alright, that's it."

"Ah."

Xu Yien turned around, and Zhou Ye happened to come downstairs. He said with a bit of lemon sourness: "Li Yitong, right?"

"is her."

Zhou Ye muttered softly: "She looks pretty today..."

"You're beautiful too."

"She just asked you to choose, and you didn't have an answer. It's useless for you to say I'm beautiful now."

"It's useful." Xu Yien put his arm around her shoulders and walked up the stairs towards the second-floor balcony. "How could such a beautiful woman be useless?"
