Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 187 - Pinocchio's premiere was a huge hit!

At eight o'clock sharp.

The first episode of Pinocchio aired during prime time on Hunan TV.

Liu Shishi took the day off again today, even though she was scheduled to film a night scene.

But she was indeed a little worried: what if the show was too successful and affected her and Bai Ye's on-screen couple?

The thought of this made Liu Shishi lose all interest in filming.

I might as well just ask for leave.

In any case, her screen time was much less compared to the other main actors.

Therefore, Liu Shishi did not miss any time.

The opening theme song begins.

As the scene unfolded, and Tang Yan appeared in her school uniform, a hint of surprise flashed in Liu Shishi's eyes.

This school uniform... it's actually a skirt.

and many more? !
Liu Shishi suddenly remembered that back then, the school uniform also included skirts.

Will Zhenhua Universe be alright?
Many netizens jokingly referred to Zhenhua Universe as a place where hidden talents were found.

Geng Geng and Yu Huai from Class 1; Li Ziwei and Chen Yunru from Class 2; and Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi from Class 3.

Now, let's start by introducing the students from Class 4, right? Cui Dabu from Class 4!

It also connected the White Night.
Will future campus dramas like "White Night" all have to include a fifth and sixth class?

Liu Shishi thought to herself, but the next second when she saw Bai Ye's disheveled long hair, she couldn't help but laugh.

And those two blush effects.

This guy's appearance is a bit outrageous~
"That's strange, why did the perspective suddenly change in the middle of the conversation!?"

Liu Shishi found it strange; just moments ago, Cui Dabu and the class monitor were locked in a standoff.

It turned into a fire scene in the blink of an eye?!
As the plot unfolds, Liu Shishi becomes increasingly immersed in the story.

She also realized why this plot had suddenly been created; it was about Bai Ye's childhood.

"Holy crap, is it that bad?!"

The first episode ended when the scene flashed back from the flashback to the competition field.

However, Liu Shishi felt that Bai Ye was really in a terrible situation.

Because of that female reporter, the mother wanted to help Choi Dal-po escape, but in the end, the mother died, and Choi Dal-po was rescued.

The start was a bit disastrous.

However, Tang Yan looks really good in this outfit.

Bai Ye seems to have always had pretty good taste.

Looking at Tang Yan's appearance, Liu Shishi observed the interactions between the two after the second episode began, even though Bai Ye sported a disheveled long hair look.

But her face really held up, and Tang Yan herself had a good foundation. Under Bai Ye's makeup and styling, this style was something that had never been seen before.

Liu Shishi thought back to the years when she and Bai Ye worked together.

I temporarily suppressed any extraneous thoughts.

Continuing to watch TV, when Choi Dal-po's memory flashes back to when Choi In-ha is watching TV and talking about her mother, Choi Dal-po says that she is an enemy.

Liu Shishi was stunned!
"That can't be right, right? Choi In-ha's mother is the one who killed Choi Dal-po's mother?!"

I go
This way of unfolding!!!

Liu Shishi was instantly intrigued.

In the school storyline, there are some hilarious scenes brought about by Choi In-ha's vision of her future career, plus Choi Dal-po getting first place in the exam.

But seeing Liu Shishi feel a little sorry for the class monitor who falsely accused her of looking at the exam paper in advance, and the subsequent outburst.

This seems to be the most difficult lead role Bai Ye ever played in her early career, right?!
And the scene where she retaliates against the teacher in the classroom instantly relieves her suppressed emotions. Liu Shishi feels that this plot really touches her heart.

In particular, Choi In-ha protected Choi Dal-po, and later, Choi Dal-po tried to save Choi In-ha, leading to a change in their relationship.

Some people even used roadblocks to shield themselves from the rain.

"Bai Ye, do you have to be so good at making idol dramas?!"

At this moment, Liu Shishi couldn't help but shout out in her heart.

I can't even imagine how romantic it would be if I did that with Bai Ye.

It's a pity they broke up!
If we hadn't broken up, I would definitely do this next time I get caught in the rain!
Just as Liu Shishi was pondering this, the program's progress bar reached its end. Seeing the final inner monologue, she realized she had fallen in love with her enemy's daughter?!
"What kind of murderous and torture-filled plot is this?"

Liu Shishi's lips twitched. The next second, after seeing the end of the scene, she lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

She always felt uncomfortable all over her body!

no! ?
It's gone just like that?!

Only two episodes airing today?!
Liu Shishi felt like ants were crawling all over her body.

Why don't you ask Bai Ye about the plot?

That's not a good idea.
If we knew the plot, it wouldn't be as fun!
Liu Shishi was conflicted, but in the end she gave up the idea.

She still wanted to watch the whole story herself, bit by bit.

"Sister Ji, what were the ratings for the premiere?!"

On Tang Yan's side.

After the premiere ended, she herself became quite impatient.

This drama is one that Tang Yan believes will broaden her acting range.

The company originally planned to keep her playing the innocent and naive type, but she didn't want to be typecast if possible.

She has to play the naive and innocent type, but she also has to play the others!

"Tangtang, this time you're going to make it big!"

When Ji Rujing returned after making the call, she couldn't hide the joy on her face. She had just finished talking to Lin Wan on the phone.

After learning about the premiere ratings from the other party, Ji Rujing couldn't wait to return and tell Tang Yan about it.

Seeing Tang Yan's curious gaze, Ji Rujing didn't keep her in suspense and continued, "The premiere ratings were 2.43% on Shanghai TV and 3.1% on Hunan TV."
It exploded!!!

This was a complete sensation! Two channels premiered it simultaneously, and the premiere ratings were incredibly high!!

Ji Rujing had considered that the ratings might not be particularly low.

After all, "Day and Night" is a guarantee of high viewership ratings, at least for now.

But after finally getting the first episode's ratings, Ji Rujing realized that she had underestimated Bai Ye.

"so tall?!"

Tang Yan was clearly shocked when she heard about this achievement.

She hadn't expected the ratings to be so high.

"The reason the premiere ratings were high is because the first two episodes were really well made. Just go and see for yourself on Weibo, the topic is already exploding!"
It trended on social media after the first episode aired, and it's probably climbed several more places in the rankings now!

The first two episodes of Pinocchio were truly explosive.

The story begins with the plight of Choi Dal-po's family, followed by Choi Dal-po being taken in by his enemy's family, and in the second episode, he discovers that he has fallen in love with his enemy.

Although the plot is a bit melodramatic, it's the kind of story that can really make you stop and watch.

"Let me see!"

After Tang Yan finished speaking, she picked up the notebook next to her and began to read it.

#Pinocchio Premiere#
#Tang Yan's stunning look and Bai Ye's disheveled appearance#
#WhiteSugarCP#
#TheMostTragicMaleProtagonistInTheHistoryOfDayNight#
Besides the initial trending topic of Pinocchio's premiere, several other trending topics have emerged.

And they all ranked at the top.

Tang Yan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy when she saw people starting to discuss her makeup and styling, praising how beautiful she was.

She was very satisfied with her look from the beginning, and she would call the makeup and styling for "White Night" one of the most beautiful makeup and styling in the movies she has ever made.

"Holy crap, hahaha, I just burped! Is this the legendary Pinocchio syndrome?! That's hilarious!"

"Inha blushes in a second.jpg Help! Tangtang's portrayal of this awkward moment is so realistic! So pitiful and cute!"

"The premise is brilliant! So this is what Pinocchio Syndrome is all about! Hiccups every time you lie? The screenwriter is ingenious!"

"Of course! The screenwriter is Bai Ye! Look at the best of us, how could someone like you write a script like 'Someday or One Day'!"

Tang Yan looked at this and wholeheartedly agreed. Filming Pinocchio with Bai Ye this time was definitely the right decision.

I just wanted to ride the wave of popularity, but I didn't expect such a flood of positive reviews.

Her acting is also very natural and expressive, and so far no one is criticizing her.

"#PinocchioSyndrome# has successfully caught my attention! Choi In-ha, what other surprises do you have in store for us?"

"Tang Yan's acting is so natural! That hiccup was so expressive, it brought the character to life instantly! Her acting has improved so much!"

"Pinocchio is the chosen one! Candy is such a lovable character! The burping sound effect is so cute it's unfair!!"

Tang Yan happily scrolled through the comments about herself.

The joy on his face was impossible to hide.

In addition to the previous entries, the entries "#PinocchioSyndrome#", "#ChoiInHaHiccups#", and "#InHaDeathMoment#" have been rising rapidly at a visible speed.

"People in the industry have always said that Bai Ye is very good at directing actors, and now that I see it, it's true. Your natural and adorable performance is just amazing."

You really do benefit a lot from it afterwards!

Ji Rujing was somewhat moved.

Bai Ye's ability to train actors seems to have collapsed after Jing Tian left him.

Tang Yan's acting skills are better than Jing Tian's, but she feels that without Bai Ye, she wouldn't have reached Cui Renhe's current level.

"It is indeed quite cute. My performance later on should be similar to this, or maybe even better. Bai Ye also gave me a lot of guidance before."

I also told him that he should point out any issues with my acting. The fact that he didn't say many things probably means my performance was alright, right?

Tang Yan suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for what would happen next.

Judging from this, Bai Ye is very well prepared.

He didn't mention his own acting problems, but his performance in the later stages shouldn't have been a major issue.

"Then you should send Bai Ye a text message to congratulate him, chat more, and build a relationship!"

Ji Rujing reminded Tang Yan of something.

This is a crucial moment to build relationships. With such a great premiere, Tang Yan should at least thank them, right?
This drama was truly fed to Tang Yan by Bai Ye.

Someone directly called Tang Yan to ask if she wanted to play the female lead. What is this if not a sarcastic remark?!

"you're right!"

Tang Yan nodded and called Bai Ye, but his phone was switched off.

"His phone is off. He's probably filming. I'll send him a text message!"

Since the phone was off, Tang Yan sent a text message.

She also knew that actors might turn off their cameras during filming.

Because there are assistants and agents present, if anything urgent happens, they usually contact the assistant or agent, who will then relay the message to the artist.

"It's okay, sending a text message is fine. My phone will probably be ringing off the hook tonight!"

Ji Rujing glanced at her phone; it was about to be bombarded with calls.

Not to mention Bai Ye.

When the good news of the premiere came, she clenched her fists excitedly, her face filled with barely suppressed excitement.

When Tang Yan was overjoyed to see hashtags like #PinocchioSyndrome#, #ChoiInHaHiccups#, and #WhiteSugarCP# trending on social media, and how she had almost instantly become the most popular and refreshing female lead in the eyes of the audience, she was visibly delighted.

The response was even more enthusiastic than she had anticipated! In particular, the character setting of "Pinocchio Syndrome" sparked such widespread love and discussion, instantly giving Tang Yan's on-screen image a distinct and memorable point!

The "White Sugar CP" seems to be subtly replacing all the previous "White Night" CPs and becoming the object of people's affections.

"Sister Rujing, it seems everyone quite likes my character."

Tang Yan was still reading the comments online, and she had to admit, the more she read, the more excited she became.

"It's not just liking, it's absolutely amazing! Your persona is fantastic!"

Ji Rujing felt that Tang Yan should really ship Bai Ye.

However, she still had to remind Tang Yan at this moment, her tone instantly becoming much more serious: "Tangtang, listen, the situation is very good now, but you must be even more cautious."

It's a good thing that the CP (couple pairing) is popular, but we must not get carried away. Look at these discussions: the BaiTang CP should get married right now. They're shipping them both on and off screen.

If Yang Mi heard what you said, what do you think would happen?!

Yang Mi has never been a petty woman, but she is definitely not narrow-minded either.

Ji Rujing felt it was necessary to remind Tang Yan about this matter.

If he gets too cocky, he shouldn't forget that he has a girlfriend!
After hearing Ji Rujing's words, Tang Yan also put away her smugness and nodded solemnly: "I know, Sister Ji!"

She knew that Ji Rujing said that because she herself wanted to rise to a higher position.

At this point, people also advised them to be careful.

"It's not just about what you say, it's about all your actions!" Ji Rujing emphasized. "Likes and comments on social media, offline interactions—you have to be careful about what you say! Yang Mi's team is watching!"
Remember, you are in the rising stage of your career, and this drama is an important stepping stone for you. Don't get yourself into trouble at this crucial moment because of some unfounded rumors!
Your fans and popularity are your assets; don't reveal your thoughts about Bai Ye!

Even if Tang Yan wanted to rise to power, now is definitely not the best time.

The best time is during the filming period, and the second best time is afterward.

It's too late now.

After hearing Ji Rujing's stern warning, Tang Yan nodded seriously, though she felt a little unwilling and conflicted.

But she was also well aware that with the popularity of Pinocchio, her relationship with Byakuya would definitely attract a lot of attention.

After that, we can only wait.

In a small group chat of the Happy Family.

Right now, everyone is having a lively conversation.

At the same time, Haitao posted a question: "[Teacher He, what were the ratings for the premiere of Pinocchio?!]"

After this question was asked, the group chat became much quieter.

The Pinocchio special episode of Happy Camp has just finished filming.

Moreover, with such a huge online buzz, and given that Bai Ye is a popular young actor, it's impossible not to pay attention.

He Jiong: [I asked the leaders in the station, and it's amazing. The first broadcast on our Hunan TV station had a rating of 3.1%.]

There's also Shanghai TV, which I don't know, but I've inquired and it should also exceed 2%.

This result is incredible!!

He Jiong shared the information he had just gathered in the group chat.

Pinocchio beat out all other shows in the same time slot and won the championship!
This not only fulfilled the high expectations of Hunan TV's top management, but also fully demonstrated the terrifying appeal of Bai Ye's current top popularity.

When I inquired about it just now, the executive who brought in the Pinocchio show was beaming with joy.

She was the one who brought this TV series to China. Although the first broadcast doesn't guarantee the final result, a show that starts well is unlikely to do too badly later on.

Moreover, this drama was rated as an S-level drama by the station, which spent a lot of money to buy it, and it was broadcast on two channels at the same time.

In the past, Hunan TV would never have bought it.

This is enough to prove how much potential this show has!

Upon hearing He Jiong's words, the entire group fell silent for a while before bursting into sending messages.

Seeing their messages, He Jiong smiled mysteriously and sent a message: [It's no use talking here, go congratulate Bai Ye!]

Xie Na: [Teacher He, I already posted it, what about you?]

Haitao: [Ahem~ I just posted that too.]

Wei Jia and Wu Xin also said that they went to Bai Yefa the moment He Jiong finished speaking.

Looking at their messages, He Jiong felt numb.

no? !
Wow, they're all so fast!

It's my turn that's slow.

He Jiong didn't plan to call Bai Ye either; his phone was probably ringing off the hook by now. He'd just send a congratulatory text message.

He was also somewhat moved, realizing that Bai Ye had truly succeeded beyond measure this time.

Another success! Bai Ye is probably the most desirable catch in the industry.

How far Pinocchio can go depends on his final performance this time.

Speaking of which, I should still maintain a good relationship with Bai Ye; who knows, I might even be able to direct a movie myself someday!
He Jiong actually had the same idea; he wished his song "Gardenia Blossoms" could be made into a movie.
