Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 258 - My Love from the Star Craze Spreads Across Asia!
"Hey Mr. Bai, your phone has been ringing non-stop! If I had made even the slightest sound, you would have blown it up!"

The hotel where the Girls' Generation film crew stayed.

Tang Yan looked at Bai Ye with a smile, her eyes full of teasing.

I was quite busy just now; Bai Ye was making phone calls here, without stopping for a moment.

It has to be said that the aftereffects of "My Love from the Star" are truly remarkable.

As things stand, this drama is definitely going to boost Yang Mi's popularity significantly, and it's impossible for her not to be jealous.

Nima!

I knew "My Love from the Star" would be popular; I saw signs of it from the beginning, but I never imagined it would become this popular!

It didn't make you this famous!
Now, not only Bai Ye has benefited greatly, but Yang Mi has benefited as well!
Wouldn't this directly widen the gap between the two?!
When everyone is about the same level, of course everyone is fine. But when someone falls far behind you, you start to feel a little unbalanced.

Especially in the past, everyone was pretty much the same.

If Yang Mi had consistently dominated her, that would have been fine, but that's not the case.

During the Pinocchio era, I was ahead of Yang Mi for a period of time.

Moreover, the relationship between Tang Yan and Yang Mi is actually somewhat complicated.

The main issue lies in the Xuejian incident from the time of Legend of Sword and Fairy 3.

The role that was originally hers was temporarily replaced by Yang Mi, although the relationship between the two was not greatly affected after that incident.

The two remain good friends and have a good relationship.

But it's impossible to say that Tang Yan had no thoughts at all.

The more this happened, the more distressed Tang Yan felt.

Yang Mi stole my life!

Um.
Tang Yan really did have that in mind.

Just now, while she was next to Bai Ye, she heard a lot of invitations, all of which were from Bai Ye and Yang Mi.

Ever since "My Love from the Star," they've been directly approaching Bai Ye, who simply said, "Name your conditions."

Tang Yan was also incredibly jealous.

"My Love from the Star" not only propelled Yang Mi to stardom, but the subsequent series of impacts will likely mean that all resources will have to pass through Yang Mi's hands before they can reach her!
How could Tang Yan not have any thoughts about this?!

That's why she said those words, but Bai Ye didn't seem to react much, only looking at her with a mocking expression.

Tang Yan knew that Bai Ye had most likely already discovered her little scheme.

She opened her mouth, then said with a helpless expression, "Okay, I admit I'm a little jealous, alright?!"

Tang Yan was indeed jealous.

I had originally planned to use this sarcastic remark to let Bai Ye know about my little temper.

But later we found that it didn't work at all.

When it came to Bai Ye, he could see right through her intentions.

It's best not to flaunt your little schemes in front of Bai Ye.

They saw right through my little scheme.

"I understand!"

Are you trying to show off?!
After hearing Bai Ye's words, Tang Yan was at a loss for words.

What do you mean by "you can understand"?!
There's something off about what you're saying!
"Hmph, I'm going to jump on this bandwagon right now. Lots of people on Weibo are doing it, I can't fall behind!!!"

After Tang Yan finished speaking, she took out her notebook and started editing.

They completely disregarded the fact that they were exposing themselves.

For her, the more crucial thing is posting on Weibo, because now those people on Weibo are intentionally or unintentionally trying to piggyback on her popularity.

It would be unreasonable for me not to step in.

[Professor Bai, save me!!! I declare this line my absolute favorite line of the year!!!]

[It's so good! I only heard about this show from my friends before, but after watching it, I swear I'll start watching it today!!]

[It's really good! I was worried that having both Tang Dynasty poets and immortal poets together would be unbalanced, but I didn't expect Bai Ye to arrange it so well!]

[It's really good; it clearly portrays the subtle thoughts and feelings between female celebrities. Maybe they're like that in real life too?!]

Although it was a slightly malicious speculation.

However, in the special episode featuring the Tang Dynasty poets, it's clear that the four actors' performances were incredibly immersive.

Just like that in real life.

The epic battleground of the Tang Dynasty poet "The Poet Immortal" suddenly topped the trending searches.

A series of animated GIFs featuring the four women's micro-expressions have gone viral online, with Tang Yan's "three consecutive eye-rolls" meme dominating the charts, and Liu Yifei's frown being photoshopped with the caption "disgusted.jpg".

Many of the replies further fueled the discussion.

"Yang Mi stepped on Tang Yan's toes on purpose, didn't she!"

"I really liked Liu Shishi's smile with her hand covering her mouth!"

Douban.

The group immediately started a thread analyzing: "Did the four of them really have a fight? Director Bai Ye is too good at stirring things up!"

Because Lin Yufen had mentioned it before.

This episode of the series was directed by Bai Ye, although Lin Yufen was in charge of filming.

However, all the shots were based on Bai Ye's ideas, as was the plot; at most, Lin Yufen added a scene.

Everything else is white night.

Haha, honey and sweethearts really do have a love-hate relationship!!

The scene where the two women were tearing each other's skirts was immediately turned into a fan-made drama about wealthy sisters seeking revenge.

Many people directly said that this is still "My Love from the Star".

No other drama is this realistic!

There's also Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei; a photo of the two Lius with their eyes closed has been hailed as a god by CP fans, and the Weibo hashtag #ShifeiSmileAtEyes# has garnered over 3 million views.

Wow, am I the only one who noticed that the host is actually very good-looking?! Seriously! Please tell me her name!

[You're not alone. I checked, and she really is standing next to the Great Tang Poet Immortal. She's definitely not inferior in appearance. I think her name is Yang Ying?!]

[Yes, yes, yes! It's AB!! That's my Yang Ying, everyone should check her out!!!]

now.

Yang Ying was at Huang Xiaoming's house, watching her ever-increasing number of fans, and she was incredibly excited.

She's so excited right now!
She had been waiting for this day for a very, very long time!

Originally, this was just a cameo appearance, but after the "My Love from the Star" special, it became a huge hit.

Although he didn't have many scenes and only had a few lines, he did have a scene where he appeared with the other five people.

In this shot, she was absolutely no less attractive than the other person; in fact, she felt she was definitely among the best!
Yang Ying is quite confident in her looks.

In particular, Bai Ye's makeup and styling brought out her beauty in its purest form.

She looked at Huang Xiaoming excitedly, her voice almost trembling as she exclaimed, "Xiaoming, look! My Weibo account has surpassed 30 followers!!!"

You should know that you only had a few tens of thousands of followers before.

Now, with just one episode of "My Love from the Star," he has gained over 300,000 followers.

I'm just a cameo actor!

Forget about it, everyone else is out of the question!

Seeing his girlfriend's excited expression, Huang Xiaoming smirked and said, "It's mainly because you're also very outstanding."

You're very good-looking, that's why you've gained attention; you just lacked a platform before.

I have to say, with looks like that, if it were me, I'd definitely come and take a look.

It's amazing that the movie "My Love from the Star" was filmed so well.

Moreover, even when you take a picture yourself, you can make it look less greasy.

Moreover, the reason why Yang Ying's fans were able to grow so quickly is mainly because she originally had relatively few fans.

With few fans, it's natural to gain huge attention afterward.

It will immediately gain a lot of fans.

"Actually, I also want to thank you, Xiaoming. Without you, I wouldn't have this platform at all!"

Yang Ying saw it very clearly.

I mainly rely on Huang Xiaoming.

If it weren't for Huang Xiaoming, I would never have such a platform.

Although she also felt that she was excellent.

"If that's the case, then we should thank Bai Ye. By the way, I need to keep in touch with Bai Ye more often!"

Huang Xiaoming suddenly realized what was happening.

I had completely forgotten about it; I was just looking at it.

I haven't gone to connect with Bai Ye yet.

Despite playing only a male villain, the immense popularity of "My Love from the Star" has allowed him to reap the full benefits of the show's success!

I must get to know Bai Ye better and strengthen our relationship.

Yang Ying was somewhat tempted by this, but after thinking about it, she gave up.

I'm not that close to Bai Ye yet, so I can just send a text message to Huang Xiaoming.

Then, we'll see if Huang Xiaoming can continue to have opportunities to cooperate with Bai Ye.

There is already a basis for cooperation here.

She'll likely have more collaborations with Bai Ye in the future, so she's not too worried.

Moreover, given the current situation, she is more concerned about online opinions of her.

Everyone was saying how stunning they looked in "My Love from the Star".

Although there was relatively little discussion about herself in the "My Love from the Star" thread, compared to the others, Yang Ying was actually quite satisfied.

It's a bit of a shame that everyone else in the show has their own memorable scenes.

Although I am sometimes discussed because of my good looks, it is only limited to my good looks.

Ultimately, this episode has little to do with me.

For example, the four actresses in the drama play celebrities vying for luxury brand endorsements, and their makeup and styling are designed to resemble their real-life personas.

Then Tang Yan's three eye-rolls became memes that dominated the trending searches, with the GIF caption "Yang Mi stepped on my toes, right?" being shared over 10 times.

The addition of a disdainful caption to Liu Yifei's image has also spawned humorous fan-made content such as "Liu Yifei: This fairy doesn't care about this endorsement."

There's also a scene where Yang Mi and Tang Yan are pulling at each other's skirts, which netizens have edited into a short film called "The Revenge of the Rich Sisters." Yang Mi's raised eyebrow expression, which is "three parts mockery and seven parts indifference," has become a new textbook example of acting skills.

There was also a photo of the two Lius together, looking like fairies.

This eye-catching combination of various beauties has led netizens to exclaim that Bai Ye truly understands what the audience wants to see.

"Sigh, I'm not watching anymore. The more I watch, the more I realize how insignificant my small fanbase is!!!"

As Yang Ying watched, she felt a little resentful.

I was initially quite pleased, but the more I looked at it, the more upset I became.

Look at others, and then look at yourself. The thing people fear most is comparison!
I used to think I was doing great, but after seeing that others were doing even better, I suddenly felt that I wasn't so great anymore.

Douban group.

Discussion threads kept appearing. One thread titled "[Special Episode of the Great Tang Poet Immortal: How Did Bai Ye Capture the Real Story of Female Stars' Palace Intrigue in One Episode?]" sparked a thousand-fold discussion.

A user, using an entertainment microscope, pointed out: "When Yang Mi pulled Tang Yan's skirt, her knuckles turned white, she was definitely using real force! Did Bai Ye deliberately keep this NG shot?"

This shot is a close-up.

It was quite obvious that Yang Mi seemed to be really into her role at that time.

Meanwhile, a highly-rated comment stated: "When Liu Shishi covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes glanced to the lower left. This is a subtle reaction of guilt in her micro-expressions. Did Bai Ye even train her in such details?"

It has to be said that when I saw Liu Shishi and Bai Ye together, even my gaze had improved a lot.

"Blind Sister, huh?!"
How could this be Sister Blind!
Doesn't he look like he could act with his eyes?!
"Isn't Liu Shishi always like this?! It feels like she's most relaxed when she's with Bai Ye. Seriously, this drama really brought all four of their characters into the story!"

"And the catfight in the fitting room was truly the finishing touch. Director Lin is indeed a top-notch director who works with Bai Ye; the two of them together can create a unique chemistry!"

"Tangtang is great too, her little tricks are really funny!"

"MiMi is better, right?! After all, as the lead actress, she really outshone the others in terms of acting skills, didn't she?!"

"No way!? Who gave you the nerve?! As the lead actor, you're supposed to be overshadowed by the cameo, right?!"

Within the discussion group.

What started as a discussion about the plot quickly turned into a fan war between several groups.

same moment.

Liu Yifei also posted a Weibo post.

Actually, she didn't have a Weibo account originally, but because of what happened with "My Love from the Star" that day, Bai Ye mentioned that if "My Love from the Star" needed promotion later, her Weibo account might be needed for promotion.

For some reason, almost against her will, she actually registered a Weibo account.

However, I haven't actually played it yet; I only posted one Weibo post.

However, since the main fanbase for "My Love from the Star" is now on Weibo, she naturally has no choice but to interact on Weibo.

Liu Yifei: [I've finished watching it, and I think it's pretty good. Thank you to the director for guiding my acting, but consider this my reward for being exploited~ @Baiye @You From the Stars Official Account]

Liu Yifei tagged Bai Ye in the comments.

She stopped being reserved.

Ultimately, it's up to you to take the initiative, not Bai Ye.

While others are sitting comfortably, they themselves need resources, whether it's Shu Chang or Liu Xiaoli.

I told her, even though she kept insisting she didn't need it.

It doesn't seem like you need to actively reach out to anyone.

But she herself knows very well that it's impossible for her to have no ambition at all.

There's just no other way. If they could, who wouldn't want to be a world-renowned star?!

So even though she says she doesn't care, her actions betray her true feelings.

After posting the Weibo message, he didn't immediately log out, but instead read the fans' comments.

[Even her eye-rolling is elegant, Sisi! By the way, how is Director Bai exploiting you?!]

Liu Yifei: [When I went there, I thought it was just a set visit, but I ended up being pulled into a cameo role, and I even had a cameo for a whole day! But I ate five meals that day, so I guess I got my money's worth!]

【Sisi, you'd better take it easy, or you'll become a fat fairy!】

[Sisi, so is it true that you disliked Yang Mi in that video?]

Liu Yifei: [Mimi and I are good friends. That was all the director's idea; I didn't do it!]

She was replying to the rumors from her fans.

Even though she wasn't starring tonight, the fans were exceptionally enthusiastic, and she naturally wanted to interact with them more.

On Liu Shishi's side.

He released behind-the-scenes footage of acting with Liu Yifei, as well as screenshots of his playful interactions with Bai Ye and chat logs showing him being tricked by Bai Ye.

Liu Shishi: [First collaboration, I learned the essence of the fairy-like eye roll, and of course, the exploitation by Boss Bai. He promised to visit the set, but it turned out he made me do a cameo! @BaiYe @YouFromTheStarsOfficial Account]

Clearly, Liu Shishi's side leans more towards Liu Yifei and Bai Ye.

Liu Yifei's side is currently planning to market their friendship.

The main reason is that Yang Mi's side has more power, and it would be unreasonable to continue the feud at this point.

Moreover, the two have indeed developed a pretty good relationship since they met on "My Love from the Star".

Therefore, at this point, she was leaning towards Liu Yifei's side.

The entertainment industry isn't all sweet talk; it's all about profit!

As for White Night!
Of course, we need to subtly steal the attention of some CP fans!
Since talking to Cai Yinong about those things, Liu Shishi has been thinking about this matter very seriously.

Ultimately, she also came to a conclusion.

He wanted to snatch it himself, but he wanted to subtly show his fans how good his relationship with Bai Ye was.

Then I can make my move naturally later.

The released video of their playful interaction didn't cross any lines; it was just right, showing that the two had a good relationship without making people overthink it.

Then, the chat log was also a screenshot of what Bai Ye had done to trick Liu Shishi into making a cameo appearance.

Shishi and Xixi have such a good relationship~

Actually, things have always been great; we just hadn't gotten to know each other before. After we got to know each other, we found that we got along really well!

Liu Yifei: [I'll teach you again next time~ Haha~]

[Take Sisi away!!]

[Support the Liu-Liu CP!!!]

Liu Yifei's arrival instantly sparked a friendly interaction between fans of both sides.

[Boss Bai! My Shishi is asking you a question! Look at the mess you've made, you actually fooled my Shishi!! @Baiye]

[Yeah, yeah! Does it include five meals?! @WhiteNight]

[Haha, Shishi probably can't eat five meals a day, right? @Baiye]

Below, many of the little lions also started playing the five-meal joke that Liu Yifei had just created.

They also tagged @白夜.

Liu Shishi selected a few highly-rated comments and gave a brief response to a few others that she wanted to answer.

Most of it is about the White Night, and some cameo appearances.

Yang Mi: [The stepping on her foot was part of the script! Tang Yan's toe is probably fine.]

In the comments section of this Weibo post, Yang Mi added: "But her eye-rolling was definitely impromptu~"

Actually, the scene where Tang Yan rolls her eyes wasn't actually her doing; it was Bai Ye who requested it.

[Honey, look at me!! Look at me!!! Your Yang Songyi is truly unparalleled!! No wonder Bai Ye said before that there would be no more Yang Songyi after you!!]

Yang Mi: [Hehe, thanks Professor Bai for saving me~]

Yang Mi replied to the message, and after she posted it, her fans were all amused.

A phrase that just came out today has now been brought up by Yang Mi, and this is really quite a clever joke!
After all, the person making the joke should be the one using it!

Moreover, the moment Professor Bai appeared after he said that, it stirred the emotions of the audience even more.

Tang Yan, on the other hand, directly posted the same eye-rolling emoji as in the drama, and then added the text: "[I'm taking a class to learn facial expression management overnight. Tuition fees will be reimbursed by @白夜报訓.]"

"Sister Tangtang, you're rolling your eyes like that."

"What?! Doesn't it look just like you?!"

Tang Yan looked at Bai Ye with a smile and asked.

This eye-rolling technique was something Bai Ye had only taught me not long ago, and I certainly couldn't have forgotten it so quickly.

"Look, the fans are saying, 'Don't try this, Sugar! It'll attract even more fans!!' I'm doing just fine, aren't I!!!"

Tang Yan looked at the interactions on Weibo, which included not only with fans but also with other celebrity friends.

Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and even Liu Yifei all interacted together.

There are also Huang Xiaoming and others who starred in "My Love from the Star" and those who didn't.

She had done it before in Pinocchio, and now it's just a cameo in My Love from the Star, and it's already this exaggerated.

As for Yang Mi, who is the lead actress, she felt that things would probably be even more exaggerated over there.

"The 'My Love from the Star' effect is really exaggerated. Look, everyone else is tagging you too!"

As Tang Yan spoke, she placed her phone in front of Bai Ye and showed him other topics related to "My Love from the Star".

Zhao Liying: [Can I join the guest appearance next time? I promise I won't roll my eyes (cute.jpg)]

Yang Ying: [Thank you director for the opportunity~ Last filming was truly the happiest day of my life! @Baiye]

Jing Tian: [What?! This actually happened while I was in seclusion?! @Bai Ye, what's going on? I want to make a cameo appearance too!!]

He Jiong: [Professor Bai, save me!]

Xie Na: [Teacher He, please don't! Even Professor Bai can't see you; he has to look down to spot you!]

Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's related or not.

One by one, everyone started leaving comments and interacting.

Lin Wan's side.

In the dead of night, Bai Ye finally called.

"You should have taken care of things over there, right?! The news about you on 'Star You' is really going viral tonight, aren't you going to post anything?!"

It's safe to say that the entire internet is waiting for Bai Ye to post on Weibo.

As a result, Bai Ye has held back until now, but there is still no interaction.

This left Lin Wan somewhat confused.

So she immediately contacted Bai Ye.

I should have contacted Bai Ye beforehand.

"I haven't figured out how to post it yet. Besides, posting it now would feel a bit awkward, as Professor Bai said."

"Hey, you're embarrassed?! There are so many people who would love to be embarrassed like this!"

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, Lin Wan's lips twitched; she truly hadn't expected it.

Bai Ye actually felt a little embarrassed.

Little did they know, how many people would actually want to say something so awkward.

After tonight, the label of "Professor Bai" will probably be attached to Bai Ye for a long time.

And it's not just in China.

That's not why I called Bai Ye.

Ultimately, whether or not to post on Weibo is really up to Bai Ye himself.

She just called to ask what was going on with Bai Ye.

However, Bai Ye has his own ideas, so it's up to him to decide.

Even if Bai Ye doesn't release any content, Bai Ye has already reaped the full benefits of popularity and the role.

It can be said that the role of Professor Bai is an extremely advantageous one for Bai Ye.

So at this point, whether Baiye sends a message or not doesn't really matter.

So, the reason he approached Bai Ye at this time was because there were other, more important matters at hand.

"You're really going to be a huge hit in South Korea this time! 'My Love from the Star' isn't just a domestic phenomenon; it's creating a craze across Asia!!!"
