Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

Chapter 45: One drama propelled her to A-list status; the stunning beauty Gao Yuanyuan.

"Jin Yanxi and Leng Qingqiu's love story is so poignant. I cried all night when I saw them brush past each other at the train station at the end!"

"Xu Heng's acting was superb; he perfectly captured the infatuation and helplessness of a wealthy young man. Dong Jie's Leng Qingqiu seemed to have stepped right out of the book!"

"Xu Heng's acting skills are indeed excellent. It's hard to believe this is his first drama, and he also has such a good image. I look forward to his performance in 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils'!"

"Although Dong Jie's portrayal of Leng Qingqiu was excellent, I still think Bai Xiuzhu is more suitable for Jin Yanxi. Liu Yifei also acted very well, perfectly capturing the delicate yet devoted temperament of a young lady!"

"Leng Qingqiu is too aloof and doesn't fit in with the Jin family's atmosphere. Her tragedy with Jin Yanxi is inevitable. Therefore, Bai Xiuzhu is more suitable for Jin Yanxi, and Liu Yifei's appearance is also a better match for Xu Heng!"

"The song 'Dark Fragrance' is so beautiful! Every time I hear the line 'When the petals leave the flower, the lingering fragrance remains,' I think of Yanxi and Qingqiu's love story! The visuals in this drama are as beautiful as an oil painting, and the costumes are especially exquisite. It's the best drama I've seen this year!"

"I feel that Xiao Lian's love story is even more touching than the main storyline. The story of the Jin family siblings is also very interesting, especially Jin Yanxi's older sisters, each with their own distinct personality, just like the Grand View Garden in 'Dream of the Red Chamber'!"

"Although the ratings were high, I still feel that there were too many changes. The Leng Qingqiu in the original novel wasn't as aloof, and Jin Yanxi was more of a womanizer. However, as a TV series, it's still very good. At least it's much better than many poorly made dramas these days, especially the casting of Jin Yanxi, Leng Qingqiu, and Bai Xiuzhu was absolutely brilliant!"

"Xu Heng is so handsome, Liu Yifei is so beautiful, and of course, Dong Jie's Leng Qingqiu is equally elegant!"

"I'm looking forward to a second run, and it would be best if CCTV could rebroadcast it. I didn't know about this show at first, and I missed the earlier episodes!"

"..."

"..."

With the conclusion of the first run of "The Story of a Noble Family" on CCTV-8, online comments on various websites and forums quickly exploded, and most of them were positive.

The casting of Jin Yanxi, Leng Qingqiu, and Bai Xiuzhu, in particular, has received unanimous praise.

Even though there are some negative reviews, most of them are from so-called fans of the original work, who feel that the TV series has changed too much from the original plot.

The theme song for the TV series, "Dark Fragrance," also became a hit.

Sha Baoliang went from a newcomer singer to a hot new star in the music scene, and also bought himself a retirement insurance policy.

However, the one who benefited the most from this drama was undoubtedly Xu Heng, who was promoted to a top-tier actor with just one drama, and he is still a popular top-tier actor!

……

"Hello, Sister Yuanyuan, thank you for your help this time!"

Upon seeing the stunningly beautiful woman who had arrived at the film set, Xu Heng took the initiative to greet her.

This stunning beauty is truly a great beauty, because she is none other than Gao Yuanyuan, who was known for her beauty in the entertainment industry in her previous life!

Of course, Gao Yuanyuan is still very beautiful now.

Born in 79, Gao Yuanyuan is only 24 years old now and looks very innocent.

Furthermore, Gao Yuanyuan, who was older in her previous life, was still very beautiful, only her temperament was different from now; she had changed from innocent to intellectual and elegant.

Today is April 15th, which is also the 26th day since his film "Our Times" officially started filming.

In the original version of "Our Times" in the previous life, the opening scene was when the adult female protagonist heard a song by her childhood idol, Andy Lau, and recalled her childhood.

In his film "Our Times," the female protagonist also recalls her childhood when she hears her childhood idol's song, except that the idol is her future self.

In the original version of the previous life, the female protagonist met her idol and the adult male protagonist at the end.

Meanwhile, the original version's adult female lead was played by Chen Qiaoen, and the adult male lead was played by Yan Chengxu.

For his film, he cast Gao Yuanyuan as the adult female lead.

After all, Liu Yifei is only 15 years old and still has a bit of baby fat, so no matter how she acts, she can't possibly look like an adult.

To find someone to play the adult "Liu Yifei," she definitely has to be a real beauty.

As for the adult male lead, he will still play himself.

He also added a twist to the movie: the female lead idolizes the male lead because he looks like him, implying that she had actually fallen for him long ago.

"Hello, Director Xu, it's an honor to receive your invitation!"

Gao Yuanyuan smiled and extended a hand, her eyes carefully scrutinizing Xu Heng.

She had to admit that Xu Heng was really handsome.

And at such a young age, her current fame and popularity are absolutely on par with some A-list celebrities.

It's worth noting that she debuted at the age of 17, and her starring role in the Jin Yong martial arts drama "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" just finished airing this month, with decent ratings.

Even so, her current popularity may not be comparable to Xu Heng's, who has only had one drama aired!

She had actually received Xu Heng's invitation long ago, but she had been hesitant about whether to accept it.

But when "The Story of a Noble Family" became a hit and Xu Heng's popularity soared, she immediately contacted Xu Heng and agreed to make a cameo appearance in the role.

"I had some things to take care of before, so I didn't reply to Director Xu's invitation immediately. I hope Director Xu doesn't mind!"

After Xu Heng extended a hand and gently shook hers, Gao Yuanyuan spoke again.

"It's alright, a beauty like Sister Yuanyuan deserves to wait a few more days!"

Xu Heng knew the reason, but he didn't say anything or take it to heart.

In any case, Gao Yuanyuan came to help this time and didn't ask for any payment.

Besides, his movie wasn't well-regarded to begin with, so it's normal for Gao Yuanyuan to hesitate. She simply withdrew her hand without making a sound.

"Director Xu is joking. The female lead in your drama is a true beauty!"

Gao Yuanyuan continued to smile.

But at this moment, she realized that although Xu Heng seemed to be flirting with her, his eyes were very innocent.

However, considering that the female lead of this movie is the second female lead in "The Story of a Noble Family" and the actress who played Wang Yuyan in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" (starring Zhang Dahuzi), it's understandable.

It's a pity that the leading lady isn't here today, otherwise she would like to see just how beautiful this young leading lady really is!

After exchanging a few more polite words, Xu Heng had someone take Gao Yuanyuan to get her makeup and hair styled.

Today, Gao Yuanyuan dressed very fashionably as required.

Now, Gao Yuanyuan's boyfriend is Zhang Yadong, the album producer for pop diva Wang Fei. Although they broke up in their previous life, and it was a very unpleasant affair.

It is said that Gao Yuanyuan wanted to get married, but Zhang Yadong was unwilling and even said to Gao Yuanyuan, "What does it have to do with me if you want to get married and have children?"

But no matter what, they are still together now, so he definitely won't have any feelings for Gao Yuanyuan.

Whether in his previous life or this one, he doesn't have the traits of a traitor like Cao Cao, otherwise, it would be bad if he caused any trouble.

There are plenty of beautiful women in this world, there's no need to be a traitor like Cao Cao!
