Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 242 - After Yang Mi, there will be no more Yu Ji!?
After holding it in for so long, Yang Mi finally felt like she had seen the light at the end of the tunnel.

He had been releasing negative press about himself.

That would really make Liu Yifei a star.

Even Liu Xiaoli probably found it strange that so many press releases came out even though she didn't issue them.

However, Yang Mi didn't care how Liu Xiaoli interpreted it; she was going to take action anyway.

Actually, she felt somewhat fortunate.

When the movie "The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen" was released, she was terrified.

Why?!
Because the box office was really high!
At that time, she was genuinely worried that the press releases she had sent to Liu Yifei would ultimately benefit Liu Yifei.

If you do that, won't you end up making yourself look like a clown?

Fortunately, the reputation of the Legend of the Feast at Hongmen declined rapidly afterward, because the Legend of Chu and Han was a shining example. It can be said that the moment the Legend of the Feast at Hongmen was brought out for comparison, it became a point of contention.

They were instantly reduced to dust.

In the scene of the Feast at Hongmen, anyone who isn't a fool can see just how big the difference is between the two.

It's not that The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen is bad, but rather that The Legend of Chu and Han is excellent. The acting between Bai Ye and Chen Daoming is incredibly enjoyable.

I had just finished watching the two actors' performance when I saw the Legend of the Feast at Hongmen.

One is a relatively respectful adaptation of history, while the other is such a radical alteration that it makes you dizzy.

Then the audience will naturally know how to choose.

Especially since this is a movie, and everyone paid for it!
The Legend of Chu and Han is so well-made, yet it's still free. Yours is a paid production, and it's so much worse than theirs. That just doesn't make sense!
As a result, the reputation of the legendary Feast at Hongmen collapsed.

"Honey, you really hit the jackpot this time!"

Zeng Jia couldn't hide her excitement.

This is the perfect opportunity to kick Liu Yifei while she's down.

Using Liu Yifei to climb to the top is considered a shortcut in the industry; who in the industry wouldn't want to step on someone like that?

Currently, those big stars are still a bit far from them, but Liu Yifei is not out of reach; for Yang Mi, she is someone she can approach.

Therefore, it's actually a good thing that Yang Mi can rise to fame by stepping on Liu Yifei at this time.
You should know that Liu Shishi had a similar experience before.

That incident caused Liu Shishi's fame to skyrocket.

"Of course, it's a gamble after all. The worse the backlash was against me before, the bigger the consequences will be now!"

Yang Mi nodded, looked at Zeng Jia, and then asked, "Is the press release ready over there?!"

As I said before, there will be no more Yu Ji after Yang Mi.

The press release was later supplemented with some hype surrounding Bai Ye and Yang Mi.

After them, there was no more Hegemon and Consort Yu.

Although it is a bit arrogant.

But Yang Mi just wants the buzz, and she doesn't care about the controversy.

In the entertainment industry, as long as you're popular, you're right!

"Of course it's ready, I'll have someone send it out right away!"

Zeng Jia said with a smile.

This has been prepared for a long time, we're just waiting.

She had been waiting for this day for a long time.

She was the one who least wanted Yang Mi to be trampled on by Liu Yifei.

Now we can finally hold our heads high.

Immediately send out the prepared press release.

Next, all you have to do is wait for it to ferment.

After explaining the situation and making the arrangements, Zeng Jia glanced at Yang Mi. There was actually something else she wanted to discuss with Yang Mi.

But after thinking about it, I gave up in the end.

It's mainly about Baiye's side.

Didn't I already tell Yang Mi to go and ask about Bai Ye's situation?
Isn't there a movie that's going to be made?!
There was still no news at this point.
There's a feeling that she's not really taking this matter seriously, or perhaps she's unwilling to contact Bai Ye?
Originally, she wanted to ask, since it was about resources, and there were only so many resources in the industry, let alone high-quality ones.

But after thinking about it, Zeng Jia gave up.

If you ask again, you'll probably get the same answer as before.

If Yang Mi wanted it, she would have already tried to get it. Asking her repeatedly now will only annoy her.

They had only recently broken up, and Zeng Jia thought it over and decided to give up since she was already bothering Yang Mi with this issue.

Zeng Jia is set to establish her own studio next year and doesn't want any more unexpected events to occur in this matter.

Do your job well.

The press release.

The press release content was designed to have marketing accounts compare the Legend of Chu and Han with the Legend of the Feast at Hongmen.

The article emphasizes Yang Mi's portrayal of Yu Ji, highlighting her acting skills as "gentle yet fierce" and historical accuracy, while criticizing Liu Yifei's version as "empty and drastically altered."

The pairing of Bai Ye with Xiang Yu further enhances the audience's impression.

Since the main purpose is to promote Yang Mi, the marketing will naturally revolve around the character Yu Ji.

Now, Yang Mi has finally gained a reputation for her acting skills.

Naturally, the goal is to solidify one's acting reputation, leverage the popularity of "Legend of Chu and Han" to completely overshadow Liu Yifei, and at the same time imply that one's on-screen partnership with Bai Ye is irreplaceable.

This kind of stride.

That was something that none of the people who had worked with Bai Ye before had ever done.

Whether it's Jing Tian, ​​Zhao Liying, Liu Shishi, or Tang Yan, who have worked with Bai Ye before.

Although they have all been involved in some form of CP (couple pairing) with Bai Ye.

They also engaged in bundled marketing for a period of time.

However, no one marketed themselves as directly as Yang Mi, claiming that her on-screen partnership with Bai Ye was irreplaceable.

As for the others, they were just marketing themselves to show how much chemistry they had with the character played by Bai Ye.

Meanwhile, this continues to fuel the hashtag #NoMoreYuJiAfterYangMi#.

They guided fans to control online comments and coordinated with the pre-release promotion of "My Love from the Star" to divert public attention from the controversy surrounding filming multiple projects simultaneously.

Although Yang Mi was affected by Bai Ye's words before.

This led many people to blindly side with Yang Mi.

But this is a matter that laymen don't understand, although there are indeed many people on Yang Mi's side.

However, there are still quite a few people who dislike Yang Mi.

While everyone knows about the unspoken rule of filming multiple projects simultaneously, it's not something everyone can accept when it's brought up openly.

Naturally, at this time, both Zeng Jia and Yang Mi were constantly thinking about how to eliminate the impact of this incident on themselves.

Now is the perfect time to take advantage of this opportunity and give it a try.

Ideally, we could eliminate the impact of this incident.

But if we can't solve it, we'll see later.

In short, Yang Mi won't just stand by and watch this time; she has to do something about it.

Therefore, when the Douban rating of The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen dropped to 5.5 and netizens were criticizing Liu Yifei's acting skills on a large scale, Yang Mi instructed Zeng Jia to release a comparative press release in conjunction with marketing accounts.

One after another, smear articles were released.

One of them even received over a million clicks.

[A Comparison of Two Versions of Yu Ji: Yang Mi's Balance of Strength and Gentleness vs. Liu Yifei's Superficiality]

Whether it's comparing Yu Ji between the two, or using Bai Ye's CP (couple pairing) for marketing purposes.

These are things that Liu Yifei and Feng Shaofeng in the Legend of the Feast at Hongmen could not have done.

Simultaneously purchased the trending topic #AfterYangMiThereWillBeNoMoreYuJi#.

They encouraged fans to flood social media with posts about Yu Ji (a character from the novel "The Return of the Condor Heroes") and to dig up Liu Yifei's past acting scandals, such as her wooden acting in "The Return of the Condor Heroes."

As one trending topic after another surged onto the trending list.

A celebration for outsiders.

Because the contrast this time is just too obvious.

Even those who don't pay much attention to this topic know some of the stories between the Hongmen Banquet legend and the Chu-Han Contention.

Bees, in particular, are now eager to let the whole world know about this.

There will never be another Yu Ji after Yang Mi!!!

[I knew Liu Yifei's acting wasn't good! And yet some people were praising her before!] [I also think Yang Mi's performance in *Legend of Chu and Han* was quite good. It's ridiculous that people are praising Liu Yifei and belittling Yang Mi!]

The bee had been holding back a lot of anger.

Even before the movie "The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen" was released, fans of Liu Yifei already wanted nothing more than to trample Yang Mi to death.

Back then, they were just stepping on Yang Mi, hoping to squeeze value out of her.

Is this to boost the box office of "The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen"?!

At that time, bees were involved in battles, but the "celestial powder" side kept exaggerating and focusing on trivial matters.

Moreover, there are some high-class movie stars who directly use this to put pressure on others, saying that movies are superior to TV series.

All right!

It's finally backfiring!
Bees don't hold back!

Now, they're going to hunt down and kill Liu Yifei!
Upon receiving the news, Liu Xiaoli was also furious.

She finally found out who had released those press releases that had mysteriously appeared recently.

Liu Xiaoli had previously suspected that the source might have been Yang Mi.

But then she felt that the possibility was not very high, so she unilaterally denied the idea.

At that time, she felt that Yang Mi couldn't possibly predict the future, and releasing negative press releases so early on was risky; what if the results were actually very good later?

Wouldn't that be like lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot?!
So she had already ruled out Yang Mi by then.

But Liu Xiaoli knew perfectly well what was happening; it was all Yang Mi's doing.

I really underestimated this girl!
They are cunning and resourceful!
I've been waiting for this day!

"Mom, what are you doing?!"

on the sofa.

Seeing Liu Xiaoli's anxious appearance, Liu Yifei was both annoyed and amused.

Why are you in such a hurry?!

"You really don't understand?!"

Liu Xiaoli was already angry, and hearing Liu Yifei's words made her even angrier.

no! ?
With things so urgent, how can you not be worried at all?!
Is my daughter truly indifferent or just plain stupid?!

Someone's going to come and step on you again.

How can you be so calm?!

"Mom, what else can we do?! Didn't you tell me to prepare myself recently?! Aren't you prepared?"

Liu Yifei's words almost made Liu Xiaoli vomit blood.

I told you to prepare, and this is how you prepare?!
"Forget it, I can't be bothered to talk to you anymore. Just lie here and wait until someone steps on you to climb to the top, until no one is looking for you anymore. Let's see if you'll be anxious then!"

Liu Xiaoli took a deep breath and finally decided to take action herself.

Talking to Liu Xiaoli made me feel like I was about to explode with anger.

She's fine; she's very calm now, but I can't stay calm at all.

"Mom, do you think I should respond to the online comments?"

Just as Liu Xiaoli was about to leave, Liu Yifei's voice came from behind her.

Her sudden, inexplicable remark made Liu Xiaoli stop in her tracks instantly.

Then he suddenly looked at Liu Yifei and said, "Qianqian, don't do anything stupid. If you respond to the online clamor right now, they will definitely find a weakness in you."

It will be very difficult to break free from this rhythm by then.

You don't need to do anything. Just wait here, and I'll take care of it for you later!

Liu Xiaoli was numb.

no! ?
Is my daughter out of her mind?!

That's really stupid of them to even think about responding to this.

Anyone with a brain should know that this is something that absolutely cannot be responded to.

They're waiting for your response.

If you respond, you might give the other party an opportunity to immediately pursue you.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoli really doesn't want Liu Yifei to respond at this time.

Regardless of the response, the final result may not be satisfactory.

Therefore, the best solution is to not respond at all; silence is the most crucial thing right now.

"Mom, actually I've been thinking a lot lately about whether my acting skills are really that bad. For example, I posted a comment saying that every actor has a different understanding of the role and thanked the critics for their opinions."

In that case, it's also an apology to my fans. I've seen the comparison between the two Yu Ji characters, and well, actually…

Before Liu Yifei could finish speaking, Liu Xiaoli waved her hands repeatedly and said, "Stop!!! Stop right there!! I think we don't need to talk about this anymore!"
Let's leave it at that for now, don't respond!

Even if you feel bad for your fans, don't respond. Because once you respond, it's like... forget it! Just don't respond!

Liu Xiaoli originally wanted to explain.

But in the end, she gave up.

The main concern is that if Liu Yifei were to respond at this point...

That will definitely be seized upon by the other party.

She absolutely will not allow it!
After hearing what Liu Xiaoli said, Liu Yifei wanted to say something, but in the end she stopped herself.

She knew she couldn't go against Liu Xiaoli's wishes.

Besides, this was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. She's been in the industry for quite a while, so she naturally knows what will happen if she responds.

After Liu Yifei calmed down, Liu Xiaoli immediately began to arrange for smear campaign articles against Yang Mi.

We need to contact the media and bring up Yang Mi's alleged attempt to gain fame through publicity stunts and the previous incident of her filming multiple projects simultaneously.

Now that Yang Mi has taken the initiative, I won't be lenient with her.

After Liu Xiaoli left the field.

The entire online public opinion was in an uproar.

The fans of Yang Mi (known as "Honeybee") and "Fairy Sister" (known as "Tianxianfen") engaged in a heated online battle of words on Douban and Weibo. Honeybee posted viewership data for "Legend of Chu and Han," while Tianxianfen mocked Yang Mi for taking on too many projects at once and being expelled from the Beijing entertainment circle.

[I think Yang Mi is just someone who takes on multiple roles at once. If Bai Ye hadn't been merciful, she probably wouldn't even have any dramas left!]

[Yeah, she used to be just a maid, but now that she's gotten ahead, she's starting to resort to backstabbing?!]

[Haha, making it sound like Liu Yifei has access to resources in Beijing's entertainment circle. Who was it that slunk away like a dog in the Chinese entertainment industry?!]

[That's right! Are Liu Yifei and her fans still living in the past?! Do they think things are the same as before?!]

[Isn't that better than someone who only knows marketing?! Someone who's only focused on marketing since joining Baiye?!]

[Some people just want to climb the social ladder, but then they never get a chance!]

You come and I go.

The verbal battle began to escalate.

Even the lion cubs were caught up in the battle.

Of course, the main reason for the little lion's participation this time is to mock Yang Mi for trying to gain popularity by associating herself with Bai Ye.

After all, Bai Ye and Liu Shishi used to be a couple!
Now that they've turned their attention to Yang Mi, they naturally have nothing to say to Bai Ye's side.

If you offend Bai Ye, you might not have another chance in the future.

But Yang Mi doesn't tolerate that.

The two sides had long harbored resentment, so a major battle was imminent.

However, the honeybees are not to be underestimated either, and the recent Legend of Chu and Han has greatly increased Yang Mi's popularity.

Naturally, the bees have increased their fighting strength considerably, not to mention that they now have a greater advantage in terms of morale!

So you, little lion, want to join the battle?!

Come on!
The bee retorted that Liu Shishi didn't even have the right to freeload.

There used to be a chance, but now there's absolutely no chance.

Recently, Liu Shishi and Bai Ye have had very little interaction, so the bee naturally seized on this sore spot.

As a result, this three-way battle led to the #YuJiBattleInChineseEntertainment# becoming the number one entertainment chart.

Although Liu Shishi didn't play Yu Ji, the current situation has arisen because of one Yu Ji, and isn't Bai Ye already jokingly called the "King of the Chinese Entertainment Industry"?!

These three people were simply made into Yu Ji (a legendary concubine in Chinese mythology), and netizens used them as memes!
