Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 305, page 304: "Ink Rain and Clouds" airs, Chu Ran rises to 95 views (4K).

Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, January 21, 2023.

It was also Wang Churan's birthday.

We just happened to arrive at the same time.

In addition to preparing a New Year's gift for Ms. Wang, Lin Shaobai also prepared a birthday gift.

Because he was busy with other things, he asked his assistant to deliver the gift to Wang Churan.

After a while, Xiao Tian arrived at the room where Ms. Wang was resting.

"Wow...why are you carrying so many gifts? Could it be that Lin Shaobai is showing favoritism?"

As she spoke, Tian Xiwei sat down opposite them.

"Ah, today is my birthday."

"Oh."

Tian Xiwei instantly recalled what Ms. Wang had said at the Weibo Night event.

Ah, I see. So their birthdays are so close together. No wonder they said that.

"Since it's your birthday, then happy birthday!"

Tian Xiwei deliberately looked away, speaking with a touch of arrogance.

"So I have two gifts, one is a birthday present and the other is a New Year's present. They just happened to come together, isn't that a coincidence?"

"It's a coincidence."

Wang Churan carefully put away her gift and came to Xiaotian, looking as serious as if she were about to take some kind of exam.

Tian Xiwei's lips twitched slightly, and she said, completely bewildered, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Snapped!"

Wang Churan suddenly put her hand on Xiaotian's shoulder, applying slight pressure.

"I'm warning you, this outfit can't be ruined. It's going to be on TV soon, and there can't be any mistakes on the Spring Festival Gala."

You might not believe it.

"what?"

Tian Xiwei had no idea what Ms. Wang was talking about.

This guy's level of abstraction is always confusing.

“Tian Xiwei, you might not believe it. I went from 23 to 24 years old in just one year. Many people would take 12 months, or even longer, 365 days to achieve this!”

Wang Churan rattled off a whole bunch of things.

It sounds reasonable on the surface, but it's just a bunch of nonsense!
Tian Xiwei understood immediately.

What's most speechless is that Ms. Wang is still looking at her with her bright eyes.

Tian Xiwei slowly raised her head: "You..."

"See? Was I right?"

"Yes...yes, that's right, there's really no way to refute it, but it feels like I've said something pointless."

"That's outrageous. They actually dared to call what others said nonsense."

"It was already nonsense, and now you're starting to write nonsense literature."

Tian Xi covered her mouth and chuckled.

I thought we were going to argue, but that smile inexplicably restored the pleasant atmosphere.

Wang Churan pursed her lips and sat down next to Xiao Tian.

"Sigh, I never thought my first time on the Spring Festival Gala would be with you."

Isn't this a blessing for you?

Tian Xiwei's mouth is just as sharp as hers.

They're always like that, going back and forth, neither of them willing to give in.

"I'm a little nervous."

Wang Churan hugged her red cheongsam, her breathing quickening.

Even someone who's usually carefree and seems to care about nothing and can go crazy at any time has to be serious in this kind of situation.

After all, the whole country is watching. You can't ruin the entire program and everyone's hard work just because of yourself.

Even though we've rehearsed many times, I'm still very nervous.

I'm afraid something might go wrong.

Tian Xiwei seemed to notice Ms. Wang's nervousness, so she deliberately made a fist and put it to her mouth, then coughed twice.

"Ah... Our beautiful queen will be nervous in the future too."

"What are you saying? Although your nickname is quite nice and makes people happy, it's normal for me to be nervous."

"You usually seem quite unserious."

"What does it matter? We usually just liven things up, but we can't cause any trouble at this time."

Tian Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she had thought of something, and reached out towards Ms. Wang's face.

Wang Churan only caught a glimpse of her hand out of the corner of her eye before looking straight ahead and saying, "What are you doing? Are you going to hit someone in this situation? That's so rude."

Tian Xiwei: "Follow me for 5000, and I will tell you the little secret to not being nervous during the Spring Festival Gala."

Wang Churan almost rolled her eyes to the sky when she heard this.

are you crazy!

"What did you say?"

"I said I have 5000 followers, and I'll tell you—"

"Do you think that's possible?"

Wang Churan interrupted her directly.

Tian Xiwei didn't see the anger on Ms. Wang's face after those words, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "See, aren't you much more relaxed now?"

"Uh..." Wang Churan realized at this moment that Xiao Tian probably really wanted to make her relax.

……

After the three of them finished their performances, they went backstage again and saw many familiar faces.

"Oh, Shao Bai?"

Yang Zi saw Lin Shaobai from afar and waved to greet him.

These two are also familiar faces on the Spring Festival Gala.

Lin Shaobai: "Sister Zi."

"Long time no see! You've gotten even more handsome lately, hahaha."

"Sister Zi is getting more and more beautiful."

"Are you genuinely praising me or just being polite?"

"Just being polite."

"Shouldn't you just speak your mind without any hesitation?"

Yang Zi wasn't angry; his relationship with Lin Shaobai had always been like that of brothers.

After a while, Mao Mao joined their conversation.

Tian Xiwei and Wang Churan stood in the distance.

Seeing Lin Shaobai and Yang Zi chatting so happily, Xiao Tian inexplicably started to feel jealous.

Actually, she could also sense that the two of them were just friends, and there was absolutely no other feeling between them.

But I still get jealous.

Is it fair to say that he's too petty?
No, no, no, it's definitely not because I'm petty.

How could having such big eyes have anything to do with being narrow-minded?

Yes, it's love.

I get jealous because I love you so much.

Tian Xi turned her head slightly, wanting to see what expression Wang Churan had.
They must both be feeling similarly.

It turned out that Wang Churan wasn't looking ahead at all.

Instead, he kept looking down and touching the red rabbit plush toy in his hand.

Her focused expression resembled that of a little girl receiving her first plush toy as a child.

Tian Xiwei was dumbfounded.

At this age, how can she still like this kind of toy?

As a child, I liked things to be normal; now...

"What are you doing?" Tian Xiwei couldn't help but ask.

Wang Churan: "Xiao Lin gave it to me back then, isn't it cute?"

"Huh? Why didn't he give it to me?"

"You weren't there at the time, so they just gave it to me. Can you stop being jealous about everything? You have such big eyes, how can you be so petty?"

"you!"

"Oh dear. Look at you, I only said one sentence and you got angry. Isn't that a prime example of being petty?"

Wang Churan seemed to be bouncing back and forth on Xiaotian's rational line.

Tian Xi gritted her teeth and said to Ms. Wang, "Fine, it's New Year's Eve, say whatever you want." "Ah, I've finally completed my performance perfectly."

"The performance was not bad."

Tian Xi scratched her cheek with her hand, pretending not to care.

Even if they spoke very softly, the two of them could hear each other clearly at that distance.

Wang Churan couldn't believe that this arrogant woman would praise her like that.

Thinking about it now, the relationship between the group has actually grown closer.

Why?

Maybe it's because everyone likes that Lin Shaobai.

Kobayashi, Kobayashi, you really are very charming.

"You performed very well too. We both successfully completed our mission."

Wang Churan expressed that it was only right to reciprocate.

If you praise me, I'll naturally praise you too.

"Oh, thank you."

"Of course, you still don't look as good as me on TV."

Wang Churan took this opportunity to take advantage of Xiao Tian.

Tian Xi sighed softly.

After the Spring Festival Gala ended completely, Wang Churan took a car back to the hotel.

In the car, she opened another birthday gift that Lin Shaobai had prepared for her.

It's a high-end Bluetooth ambient night light.

For her birthday, Lin Shaobai gave her many gifts, including expensive bags, necklaces, and cute little lamps like these.

Why did I buy this lamp?

The main reason is that the lighting scene is well done.

Beneath the vast blue sea, a bright full moon hangs in the sky, and sailboats sail against the wind.

Lin Shaobai specially bought things to bring with him the boat.

Ms. Wang's assistant sat next to her, and seeing her artist so happy made her happy too.

She didn't say anything on the surface, but she was actually silently marveling at how good President Lin was to Wang Churan.

"Happy New Year, Sister!"

Wang Churan paused for a moment after hearing what the staff member next to her said, then smiled and said, "Yes, Happy New Year!"

……

During the Spring Festival holiday, Lin Shaobai returned to his hometown to celebrate the holiday with his family.

The films released during this Spring Festival season include "Man Jiang Hong", "The Wandering Earth 2", and "Nameless"...

The first two movies were the most popular and had the highest box office.

However, "Man Jiang Hong" has been criticized by countless people, who say it is very ugly.

It was February 2023, just a few days after the Chinese New Year.

Zhang Jingyi has secured a new endorsement deal, becoming the brand ambassador for the high-end luxury brand Louis Vuitton.

The three dramas, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," "Lighter," and "North and South," propelled her popularity, fan base, and online traffic to new heights.

Now Baichen Entertainment has another female celebrity with a blue bloodline.

Fans feel very proud when celebrities receive such high-end luxury items.

In the future, if you get into a fight with fans of other groups, just show them the achievement charts of your own idols.

Those who don't have great endorsements are embarrassed to call themselves genuine celebrities.

At the end of February, Xiaotian returned to the company and met with the producer of the TV series "Eternal Night Galaxy".

Tian Xiwei is mainly known for her big eyes and cute face, so much so that she is the first person that comes to mind when thinking of a sweet girl role.

She's beautiful, has a great figure, and is a great actress. Plus, she's got enough popularity, so she's perfect for sweet girl roles!

Tian Xiwei herself and her agent also read the script and thought it was very good.

That's pretty funny!
Nowadays, people probably don't like watching those long and boring TV dramas anymore; they're too tedious.

The female lead, Ling Miaomiao, is played by Xiaotian.

This is an incredibly cute and sweet girl.

Lin Shaobai plays the male lead, Mu Sheng, who is aloof, introverted, and taciturn, a black lotus flower.

There weren't any major problems, since the producer originally intended for Oda to play the female lead.

It's very lucky to have found a top female celebrity.

A few days later, filming for "Bend the Waist" wrapped up, and "Ink Rain and Clouds" was released online.

Wang Churan is particularly concerned about this drama and really hopes it will become a huge hit.

I didn't sleep well the day before the show aired.

Anxiety, excitement, exhilaration, and trepidation—a mix of emotions swirled together.

My brain is so active that I can't fall asleep at all.

I'm very afraid of being scolded now, so I'm always very careful in everything I do.

Sigh, I'm already severely nearsighted, and yet netizens always say I roll my eyes a lot.

Actually, she's a really nice person in private, but people always call her "eye-rolling sister".

It made me feel very uncomfortable, and even though a long time has passed, I still feel like I'm putting a stone there.

Wang Churan was extremely worried.

Fortunately, the show became very popular after it premiered.

Everyone says that Cool is a flop, because the shows broadcast on this platform are always incredibly unpopular.

As a result, after the broadcast of the drama "Ink Rain and Clouds", the effective viewership of the full episodes consistently ranked first, which directly increased the download volume of this software APP.

And the name was also printed on the app's promotional slogan.

A few days after it aired on the Ku platform, it was also released on Tyrande and Xiaohan's platform.

Ten days later, it topped the Netflix Taiwan charts!

Xiaohan and Tyrande are both ranked number one on the platform.

Because so far, it is the fastest TV series to break 10,000 popularity points in 2023.

It topped eight charts on the platform, including the TV series popularity chart and the Youku V-Chart overall popularity chart.

It topped the popularity charts on more than ten lists, including Datawin TV Series Popularity Index, Douban Real-time Hot List, and Lighthouse Web Series List!

This show has a very fast pace, with almost every episode having exciting moments, funny moments, frequent conflicts, and many plot twists, making it hard to put down.

The screenwriter also recognized that people like fast-paced, exciting content.

The early hit drama "Story of Yanxi Palace" became popular precisely because of its exhilarating and satisfying storyline.

Discussions on Weibo have already exceeded 100 million, and the scene in the TV series where Lin Shaobai has a jade pendant in his mouth has been widely shared.

In a women's college dormitory.

The girl would start screaming as soon as she watched a TV series.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

The other roommates were stunned when they heard that.

"what are you doing?"

"Watch 'Between Ink Rain and Clouds'!"

"Oh, it's that super popular TV series right now."

"Holy crap! Lin Shaobai is so handsome! I declare that only people with this kind of looks can act in period dramas!"

My roommate just happened to see Lin Shaobai's face on the computer screen.

Such a handsome face on the big screen is truly stunning.

"Wow! He's really quite handsome!"

"Duke Xiao is so handsome! Ahhh!"

"Wait a minute!"

Besides Lin Shaobai's handsome face, the roommate also noticed a beautiful face that flashed across the screen.

"Wang Churan is so beautiful?!"

Wang Churan's makeup and styling in this drama are absolutely stunning, perfectly highlighting her flawless face.

"Right? Super pretty. I'll just assume that eye roll was Tian Xiwei's and had nothing to do with Wang Churan."

"When have I ever had any rift with Chu Chu!"

"What's wrong, Guan Tianxi?"

The dormitory head, who had been lying silently in bed, finally spoke up. She was a fan of Xiaotian and knew that Tian Xiwei would definitely not be able to stand it if she heard someone say that.

Moreover, because Ms. Wang's drama was so popular, she felt inexplicably under immense pressure.

It's always the rival's show that's doing so well; it's really annoying!
