Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 334, Section 333: When the Wild Geese Return! Du Ling is a solid top star.
"Oh, Lin Shaobai went up to help with the singing."

Chen Dudu is also watching TV at home right now.

Singer 2024 is so popular that even Chen Dudu, who doesn't usually watch music variety shows, has started watching it.

Most importantly, she even has her own boyfriend on the show.

The TV program has already shown Lin Shaobai and Sister Na's appearance.

As Chen Dudu watched Lin Shaobai pick up the microphone again and stand on the stage as a singer, she couldn't help but think of the Lin Shaobai who sang an original song on stage in 2017.

She even wore a baseball cap and a mask when she went to see it.

In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed...

Chen Dudu slowly approached the television, looked Lin Shaobai up and down, and smiled slightly: "He hasn't changed much. He's just as handsome as he was back then."

……

On the show "Singer," Lin Shaobai and Na Jie walked through the light screen and came to the center of the stage.

Lin Shaobai is an extremely popular top star, and the cheers at the scene reached their peak when he appeared on stage.

She was arguably the most popular person at the event.

Many top celebrities don't have a good reputation or public image.

Lin Shaobai is an exception.

Because he is a truly capable individual.

Just as we rehearsed, I will sing Na Jie's classic song "A Dream" with her.

"If I had known it would be like this..."

"Like a dream"

"I won't put all my love in one place."

I can forgive.

"Your absurdity"

"The absurd thing is that I can't forget."

"If I had known it would be like this..."

……

When the song is performed, the production team will also take photos of the audience showing expressions of being captivated or even moved to tears by the song.

Of course, Lin Shaobai and Na Ying sang really well.

The comments section was full of praise.

Lin Shaobai sings so well.

[I declare that Lin Shaobai, one of the guest performers today, sang the best. No arguments allowed.]

[My goodness! At first I wondered why they invited a top star, but now I realize, they truly deserve to be called a top star. Their singing is absolutely amazing!]

Don't let Lin Shaobai's good acting overshadow the fact that he actually debuted as a singer. Everyone knew how well he sang when the show aired.

[A top star is a top star indeed. He's so handsome and sings so well. No wonder so many people like him. I admire him.]

My sister hugs and kisses his poster every day, and now I understand, he really is quite outstanding.

[My goodness, is his singing really that steady? Isn't he always an actor? How come his singing is so amazing?]

This is incredible! This is truly a feast for the eyes and ears!

[How about we give him first place? That would really be rigged.]

If this group doesn't get first place in the duet segment, I'll curse Mango TV to death!

Lin Shaobai and Na Jie's duet quickly became a trending topic.

#A Dream is so good!# It's amazing!
Tian Xiwei, Chen Dudu, and Wang Churan all watched the finals on TV, while Xiao Zhang went directly to the venue.

She really liked the show and wanted to experience the atmosphere firsthand.

The sound system for this program reportedly cost several hundred million.

Sometimes, songs recorded live on a phone sound much better than those played on the show.

Xiao Zhang truly experienced the awe-inspiring power of a singing champion.

Now I understand why some people can cry when they hear these things.

When a singer's emotions truly reach their peak, they can genuinely move the audience to tears.

Soon, "A Dream" came to an end.

Lin Shaobai and Sister Na bowed deeply to the audience.

Almost all the audience members stood up and applauded for the two.

People kept shouting the two's names.

"Lin Shaobai!"

"Sister Na!"

"Ahhh, Lin Shaobai!"

"He's a heartthrob!"

After finishing their performance, Lin Shaobai helped Sister Na down the steps, and the two went to the backstage area.

When there were fewer people, Sister Na quickly leaned against the wall and took deep breaths.

This scenario occurred during the very first competition.

Lin Shaobai stopped immediately upon seeing this.

"Sister Na, are you alright?"

"I'm fine! I was just a little nervous. Thank you, Shao Bai. I'm so lucky to have this opportunity to work with you."

Sister Na spoke very sincerely.

"Actually, I'm very happy to be able to work with Sister Na."

"Do you remember? Back then, Jeremy and I were fighting over you. Haha, it's been so many years."

"Ah."

“Back then, I felt that you were a promising young man. You were handsome, could write songs, and had such a good voice. Now it seems that my judgment was correct.”

As she spoke, she patted Lin Shaobai's chest with her hand.

Afterwards, Shen Mengchen came over to interview the two of them.

I also gave Lin Shaobai two boxes of milk.

Sure enough, no matter who comes to this show, they can't escape mentioning the two cases of milk!

After that, Lin Shaobai had nothing else to do and returned to the lounge where there was no live broadcast with his assistant.

Now, the host, Mr. He, is announcing the contestants who have successfully advanced to the second round.

Thanks to her outstanding performance in the first round, with the help of Lin Shaobai, Na Jie successfully entered the second round as the first-place winner.

There's nothing to argue about.

The song sung by Lin Shaobai and Na Jie was so good that it became the number one trending topic.

The only thing everyone was unhappy about was why Momo didn't make it to the second round.
They prepared the song so carefully, but they couldn't even get into the second round.

What a pity. What a pity.

In such a high-stakes singing competition, every song you hear is a treat.

The Weibo account is filled with praise for Lin Shaobai.

Congratulations to Na Jie for successfully advancing to the second round! Congratulations to Na Jie for taking first place in the first round!

Congratulations, Sister Na! Thank you, Lin Shaobai, for your help.

[A top star is a top star; they're simply not cut out for second place.]

[This is incredible. Lin Shaobai not only writes songs, but his singing is also amazing!]

I think this is well-deserved. We can't let his youth and good looks fool us into thinking he's a talented actor.

[I've witnessed the power of a top star; he's truly strong. His singing was so steady. Many people are shaking uncontrollably on their first live stream. But Lin Shaobai wasn't; he's definitely someone who's seen it all.]

Am I the only one who admires him for having achieved so much, yet still appearing as a guest on this show?

[I think so too. Lin Shaobai, with his current status, doesn't need to appear on variety shows to increase his popularity. He might just be there to help Na Jie. After all, they've known each other for a long time.]

Congratulations, Lin Shaobai!

I'm happy that Yingzi made it to the second round, but I'm a little disappointed that Momo didn't. She sang so beautifully.

There's no way around it; those who know, know.

Lin Shaobai was only responsible for the first round of guest performances; as long as he performed well, that was enough. As for the controversies that arose in the second round, he couldn't be bothered with them.

After finishing his performance, he and his assistant left, preparing to fly back to Beijing.

The drama "When the Wild Geese Return," which I filmed with Sister Dudu, is about to be released on Tencent Video, and I'm currently busy filming some promotional videos.

As they were about to arrive at the airport, the assistant couldn't help but say, "Mr. Lin."

"Ok?"

"I think you sang exceptionally well today. I almost cried listening to you from below. My eyes were all red."

"Really?"

"Of course. Actually, I've loved listening to you sing for a long time, but you've been busy filming and haven't picked up a microphone to sing like you do now. Back when I wasn't working as your assistant at the company, I especially loved listening to your songs, like 'If the Moon Doesn't Come' and 'Love That Never Loses Contact.' I listened to them on repeat so many times."

"Oh……"

Lin Shaobai's eyes widened slightly upon hearing this.

This was the first time he had ever heard his assistant say these things.

Well, but we don't usually have time to talk about this.

"So when I heard that you were going to hold a concert, I was especially happy. I think that someone with such a beautiful voice as you should sing."

"Oh, you're right. You have good taste."

Lin Shaobai wasn't being modest at this moment; he deliberately spoke in a joking tone.

The singers on the live stream have reached the moment to announce the winner of the singing competition.

Na Jie won the championship.

The singer who had never fallen out of the top three came in fourth in the finals.

This result left everyone very frustrated.

This has sparked some controversy.

However, these controversies did not affect Lin Shaobai. He was only responsible for supporting the first round of performances. Once he sang well in the first round, his task was over.

Lin Shaobai felt that the 2024 King of Singers title was somewhat acceptable.

Nobody knows how outrageous the 2025 King of Singers will be.

……

……

……

It's November 2024.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

"When the Geese Return" has officially premiered on Tencent Video as part of the summer TV season.

Lin Shaobai's popularity is undeniably high; this time, the main focus is on Chen Dudu.

She already had two works: "The Vanished Her" and "Changfengdu".

A movie and a TV series did indeed help her gain some popularity.

However, to become a top-tier viral sensation, one also needs a ruthless and ruthless temperament.

In other words, you need to fight with your rivals.

A particularly boring celebrity can never become a top star.

So much so that Chen Dudu also has high hopes for this drama.

If this drama does well, she will definitely become a star.

Fortunately, the beginning of this drama was particularly interesting and the production quality was also good. A lot of people became fans of her and Lin Shaobai's older sister-younger brother romance.

They started accumulating a large following of fans who ship them as an older sister/younger brother couple after starring in the drama "Changfengdu".

Among the actresses Lin Shaobai has worked with, he is the youngest, but Chen Dudu is the only one with whom he truly has a sibling-like on-screen chemistry.

Therefore, those who want to ship the sibling romance between Lin Shaobai will indirectly fall for Chen Dudu.

Two female college students on vacation were staying at home, planning to find a show to pass the time.

As soon as I turned on the TV, I saw the promotional screen for "When the Geese Return".

Because of its immense popularity and high expectations, it was permanently placed in the largest promotional position.

You'll see it once you open it.

"Wow, it's Lin Shaobai!"

"You don't know? His drama with Chen Dudu has started airing. I watch it every day. It's really good."

"what?"

"You didn't even care about my messages! I sent you messages but you didn't reply. I specifically mentioned this show but you didn't even notice!"

"Haha! It's not too late to see it now."

"The female lead this time is Chen Dudu. To be honest, I really like her looks. I think she has a particularly cool and elegant appearance."

"I've seen people online saying she has the face of Guanyin, the body of Chang'e, and the bones of Daiyu. That's a very good description."

"Wow. Seriously, netizens are really talented. This really does suit Chen Dudu's looks and temperament."

"She hasn't had as many hit dramas as that young actress. Hopefully, this drama will be another hit, and then her position will be completely secure."

Break time
Several students gathered together to discuss the latest TV series.

Have you guys been watching Yanzi lately?

"Swallows? Haven't I already seen them? Swallows, how can I live without you?!"

"Don't mess around, you know what kind of goose I'm talking about."

"Hahahaha! Just kidding. How could I not know that Lin Shaobai has a new drama airing? I feel that because of his popularity and reputation, every time he airs a new drama, people of all ages are eagerly waiting to watch it."

"The female lead, Chen Dudu, did a great job this time. I especially like her character in the drama. Great, great."

"I really ship them as a couple. I wonder if they're actually dating in real life. It would be great if they could date in real life."

"No way! Lin Shaobai is the only one who's good enough for him. No woman in the entertainment industry is good enough for him."

"Is Chen Dudu alright? Chen Dudu's aloof temperament and academic excellence are incredibly charming."

On a high-speed train
An office worker who had just finished get off work finally found a seat, only to find that the two people next to him were watching "When the Wild Geese Return" on their phones.

The one on the left must have just started watching; they're still watching the first episode.

The one on the right has already caught up to the latest version.

It seems like everyone's been watching "When the Geese Return" lately.

The person on the left commented at the end of the first episode: "Chen Dudu, my wife, I love you!"

The one on the right seems to be a fan; he's constantly generating data, sending bullet comments and messages.

【Chen Dudu!】

【Chen Dudu is a goddess!】

【Dudu Goddess!】

The company employees thought that working with Lin Shaobai on a drama was a sure way to make it a hit.

His fan, Bai He, is a well-known and capable person in the Chinese entertainment industry.

With casual viewers and fans contributing to the data, the show quickly surpassed 3 views.

It has entered Tencent Video's "Most Popular" club.

And Chen Dudu also has her second representative work as the female lead in a TV series.

With two hit dramas, "Changfengdu" and "Yan Hui Shi," both on different platforms, no one can question her status as a top-tier celebrity now.

Chen Dudu has consistently ranked number one on the list of most popular female celebrities lately, unchallenged by anyone.

His Weibo followers are also increasing rapidly.

Many people have their past controversies dug up during the show's airing, but Chen Dudu doesn't.

All the videos that were dug up were of her past interactions with her fans—videos showing how genuinely, sincerely, and gently she treated them.

Further back, there are also videos of makeup artists bullying and belittling others.

This made fans feel even more affection for her, and they would then work even harder to generate data for her.
