Chinese entertainment: Top stars have no holidays

After another fierce battle in the King's Canyon, Jiang Bai finally opened WeChat again and slowly replied.

Jiang Bai: I have a little bit of connections on Weibo, so I know your Weibo account.

This is a lie; it's just a joke to fool children.

On the other side of the phone.

Lying on the top bunk in her dorm room, Tian Xiwei, who was practically turning into a frantic queen waiting for a reply, became even more anxious upon seeing the message.

Holy crap, does he like me?

Tian Xiwei frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

Tian Xiwei, who had just entered university and was still quite naive, didn't think Jiang Bai was joking at all. Instead, she genuinely believed that he had some connections.

After all, the other party is already an artist.

So why did Jiang Bai go to the trouble of using his connections to find her Weibo account and follow her?

Could it be that he fell in love with me at first sight?!

Tian Xiwei opened her WeChat Moments.

Yes, that's great. They're all shared daily selfies and lifestyle photos.

Who wouldn't say she's a beautiful young woman who lives life positively, is optimistic and cheerful!

Tian Xiwei felt that her speculation was very reasonable!

This girl is indeed quite charming.

Her fingers hesitated on the keyboard for a long time, and Tian Xiwei struggled for a while, not knowing what to reply.

So she opened Weibo and clicked on the newly followed account, 【Jiang Bai】.

The first thing you see is a nine-grid photo collage of everyday sharing pictures.

Since attending the press conference for the start of filming of "Rush to the Dead Summer", Jiang Bai has officially debuted in the entertainment industry.

Although he doesn't have any works released yet, he still needs to do the necessary account management work.

After all, in this day and age, sometimes all a celebrity needs is a pretty face to gain fans.

With the help of his assistant, Jiang Bai posts a Weibo post almost every 2-3 days.

The content is mostly behind-the-scenes footage, including selfies in costume, group photos with colleagues, and photos of exercising or taking walks after work.

Yes, the main focus is on showcasing oneself in all aspects.

In 2016, celebrities' Weibo accounts had not yet completely degenerated into mere promotional machines, and celebrities still displayed a more human side on Weibo.

They also interact directly with fans on Weibo.

For example, Lin Genxin's online feud with anti-fans, and Shuangzi's battle against anti-fans, etc.

Jiang Bai also replied to quite a few comments in the comment section.

Most of the fans who came for him and are willing to follow him are currently fans of the original novel "Rush to the Dead Summer," and most of their questions are related to the filming of "Rush to the Dead Summer."

Perhaps because Tian Xiwei herself would genuinely reply to comments on Weibo, she assumed Jiang Bai would do the same.

Tian Xiwei read Jiang Bai's replies to fans' comments one by one.

I'm trying to understand what the real personality of the male lead I'm going to work with is like.

After watching for a while, Tian Xiwei muttered, "She seems to be a gentle person with a good sense of humor."

"But he is indeed very handsome."

The phone screen was frozen on a photo of Jiang Bai.

It's still that same photo of him standing under a camphor tree, wearing a white shirt and smiling brightly.

This photo is quite famous among fans of the original novel "Rush to the Dead Summer".

This scene is a classic one from the original novel featuring Lu Zhiang, and has been repeatedly appreciated by fans of the original work.

Jiang Bai's photo perfectly matches their image of Lu Zhiang.

Tian Xiwei had not read the youth angst novel "Rush to the Dead Summer", but her eyes were still drawn to Jiang Bai in the photo.

There's no way around it, the modeling is just too top-notch.

The thought of filming with such a handsome man, and playing the male and female leads, made Tian Xiwei's lips curl into a smile.

"What if he likes me more and more?"

"Oh dear, what if he confesses his feelings to me? Should I say yes?"

"I'm so conflicted."

Holding her phone, Tian Xiwei rolled around on the bed until her roommate yelled at her, which stopped her from making any noise.

"Hehe...hehehe..."

......

Jiang Bai had no idea that his casual joke could inspire the girl to conjure up a whole bunch of unrequited love stories.

After a few enjoyable matches in the King of Glory arena, Jiang Bai fell asleep contentedly, drifting into a deep, baby-like sleep.

In the following days, he continued to work almost 12-14 hours a day, and he and Zheng Hehuizi added extra scenes to the shoot.

Unfortunately, in the newly revised script, they became the main characters from around episode 25 until the final episode 48, and they had most of the scenes.

These scenes had to be filmed within a month, which meant working overtime every day.

This situation persisted until November 24th.

On this day, the film crew was filming their final scenes in an auditorium in Shanghai.

They filmed from morning until afternoon, and finally got to film the last scene around 3 p.m.

"Actors, enter!"

At the assistant director's command, Jiang Bai and Zheng Hehuizi, who had already changed into suits and wedding dresses, walked hand in hand into the hall.

"Mr. Lu Zhiang, are you willing to marry Miss Yan Mo?"

"I do."

"Miss Yan Mo, are you willing to marry Mr. Lu Zhiang and make him your husband?"

"I do."

As the ring was placed on Zheng Hehuizi's hand, Chen Xuedong and others in charge of creating a lively atmosphere started cheering and making a ruckus.

The camera slowly zoomed out, and the image of Jiang Bai kissing Zheng Hehuizi's forehead began to blur.

Yes, this is to make it easier to cut in Zheng Shuang's back view later.

"good!"

"I hereby declare!"

The entire crew of "Rush to the Dead Summer" has wrapped filming!

The entire crew was filled with joy.

Jiang Bai and Zheng Hehuizi were also laughing very happily; this time, they were genuinely happy, not just pretending.

This film crew, which has been plagued with all sorts of problems, has finally finished filming!

"Everyone, hurry up and pack up!"

"There's a wrap party waiting for everyone tonight!"

Producer Niu Jixin, also beaming, loudly announced to everyone to attend the wrap party.

Chen Xuedong and the others looked very happy, their smiles seeming genuine.

To be honest, the atmosphere on set during the last month was much better than during the first two and a half months.

Without Zheng Shuang causing trouble, everyone cooperated well, and the filming went smoothly.

All I can say is that, apart from Shuangzi, everyone else in this production crew is a normal person.

Even Xue Dong, who was a bottom for love, is still a pretty good person.

After Shuangzi "wrote her own filming," he knew his screen time for the rest of the series would be very limited.

However, he and Jiang Bai got along quite well, and he didn't develop any bad feelings towards Jiang Bai because of this.

After all, it was Shuangzi who was in the wrong!

That night.

After having a lively wrap party with everyone and getting slightly tipsy, Jiang Bai left the film crew.

The production team for "A Love So Beautiful" has confirmed that filming will begin on February 3rd next year, which is the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

Before the Lunar New Year, Jiang Bai had no other work except for continuing to teach acting classes.

However, just when Jiang Bai thought he was about to enter a pleasant vacation.

Xu Xu brought a character biography to their door.

"Xiao Jiang, get ready, we're going to audition in a few days."

"This time it was a real audition."

"Huh?" Jiang Bai asked, somewhat puzzled. "Where do I audition?"

"The capital city!"
