Returning to 2011, life's path began to diverge from the moment he filled out his college application.
Discovering he had actually enrolled in a performance major and seeing familiar face...
Chapter 706 Si Teng bursts into flames
March 8th, Goddess Day.
Generally speaking, female friends who work on this day will take half a day off and go home early.
However, for college students, even if the girls are over 18 years old, they still have to attend classes because it is not the weekend.
The last class in the afternoon ended. As the bell rang, groups of students poured out of the teaching building of Wuhan University and divided into groups outside, some going to the cafeteria and some returning to the dormitory.
It is March now, and the cherry blossoms on both sides of the campus roads are in full bloom, including white Oshima cherry blossoms and light pink Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms. Occasionally, a few petals fall from the trees, forming a beautiful picture. At this time, Wuhan University can definitely compete for the title of the most beautiful university in China.
However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it cannot slow down the students' pace. They have long been accustomed to the peerless beauty that others see.
"Xiaoying, let's get some food and eat it in the dormitory later..." On the way to the cafeteria, a girl in a pink top and with long flowing hair asked while holding the arm of the short-haired girl next to her.
"what?
I don’t like eating in the dorm because it smells too bad and gets all over the place.”
"But today is the premiere day of [Si Teng], I want to go back to the dormitory early~"
"Sister, the TV series doesn't start until 8 o'clock in the evening, and it's only a little after 4 o'clock now. Let alone going to the cafeteria, we still have time to go out for a meal and come back later." The short-haired girl said helplessly.
"Well, you're right." The little girl in pink scratched her head.
"I was really looking forward to it. I finished watching "The Story of Minglan" when I went home during the winter break, and watched "The Wandering Earth" during the Chinese New Year. After that, there was almost nothing to watch for nearly a month.
Now my brother finally has a new drama coming out, so I won’t be short of dramas to watch during this period! "
"Haven't you been watching All Is Well lately? And yesterday you told me that old man Su Daqiang is so hateful."
"All Is Well is good, but this kind of urban family drama is just fodder for me. I want to watch Gu Wei and see TV dramas about idols falling in love!"
It is obvious that the girl in pink is a loyal fan of Gu Wei.
The two little girls chatted with each other, and then followed the crowd into the school cafeteria.
At night, in the girls' dormitory.
Zhang Hanyue, who had already washed up and changed into pajamas, sat in front of the computer, opened the video software, and waited for the time to get closer to 8 o'clock.
"Xiaoying, come quickly, the TV series is about to start"
"I'm here." Following the voice, a short-haired girl wearing a facial mask and blue pajamas walked out of the dormitory bathroom, moved a stool and sat next to Zhang Hanyue.
"It's just a TV show, why are you in such a hurry?"
Unlike her best friend who is crazy about Gu Wei, Tu Yueying is not a fan. Although she sometimes follows some popular dramas, she does not follow the stars themselves.
They are the casual audience who only watch the works and not the stars.
"This will make it feel like a ritual. Of course I have to watch my brother's drama first. I still have a lot of things to do after watching it!" Zhang Hanyue stared at the screen, looking at the time in the lower right corner, waiting for the TV series to begin.
"I know, Weibo, super topics, Tieba, fan groups, after watching the drama, you still have to collect data for your idol, right?"
"Hehe, Xiaoying, you understand me."
The two chatted for a few words, and the time came to 8 o'clock. [Si Teng] was already visible on the computer screen.
Zhang Hanyue couldn't wait to click the mouse, and [Sito] began to play.
The TV series did not begin with the usual opening song, but started playing the content directly. Jingtian walked out of a somewhat old gate wearing a white pearl lace cheongsam.
Whether it is her own attire or the surrounding environment, it can be seen that the drama should be set in the Republic of China period.
"Jingtian is so beautiful. She looks so good in this cheongsam. It suits her style very well!"
"She is indeed beautiful, but her voice is so familiar"
"It's familiar, right? Bai Qian and Zhen Huan also have this voice. It's obviously voiced by Ji Guanlin."
The plot of "Si Teng" was still going on on the screen. Less than 5 minutes later, Jing Tian was pierced through the chest by a wooden thorn and received her lunch box. Only then did the opening song sound.
Zhang Hanyue and Tu Yueying, who were sitting in front of the screen, looked at each other, a little confused.
"The heroine died immediately?"
"I think he will be resurrected later."
Neither of them had read the original novel, so they were quite surprised to see the heroine die at the very beginning of the story.
The screen was filled with barrages of comments.
[The heroine is dead, congratulations on the end! ]
[He's dead now? Will he be resurrected later?]
[This drama has successfully attracted my attention. Let me see how it develops next.]
[Why hasn't Gu Wei appeared yet? I want to see Gu Wei! ]
[I have to say, Da Tiantian's cheongsam look is stunning. Big points to the stylist of this drama!]
【.】
After the opening song ended, the camera turned to a bus. Gu Wei was wearing a black windbreaker and a beautiful girl was sitting next to him. It seemed that they were a couple out for a trip.
The plot develops normally. Qin Fang, played by Gu Wei, goes to Dana with his girlfriend An Man to pay homage to his ancestors in order to fulfill his father's last wish.
As soon as the two arrived there, a middle-aged man who called himself Boss Ma appeared, making An Man uneasy.
That night, An Man tricked Qin Fang into drinking sleeping pills and went to see Boss Ma alone. It turned out that Boss Ma was An Man's old lover Zhao Jianglong.
[Oh my god, he got cheated right from the start. Gu Wei's role as the male lead is kind of pathetic.]
[I have to say, the scenery at the beginning of the TV series is really nice. I heard it was filmed in Shangri-La. It’s so beautiful!]
[This is the first time I've seen a drama where Gu Wei is cuckolded. This woman is really a bit ungrateful!]
[She's probably an ex-girlfriend or something like that. She'll have no role to play once Da Tiantian appears.]
An Man was beaten by Zhao Jianglong and accidentally stabbed him. She then fled with the unconscious Qin Fang. On the way, they encountered gangsters. Qin Fang and his car were pushed off a cliff, and An Man was also taken away by the gangsters.
Qin Fang fell to the bottom of the cliff and was pierced in the chest by a vine. His blood flowed into the ground along the vine and accidentally awakened Si Teng.
[Wow, both the male and female protagonists died in the first episode! ]
[The male and female protagonists die, and the play ends! ]
[So be careful when driving, otherwise it’s game over if you flip over!]
[This is such a big wooden splinter, even I kicked Gu Wei and it hurt! ]
Jingtian's appearance is so beautiful, like a mountain elf!
[Sweetheart, the white cheongsam is so elegant, she looks like a queen! ]
Qin Fang: Hi, wife~
Is Jingtian really this big? She looks so fierce. I feel like she's gained some weight, but she looks more graceful and elegant. She has such a great temperament!
"From now on, I am your master, and you must obey me in everything.
Remember, my name is Si Teng! "After Jing Tian said this in an extremely arrogant tone, the entanglement between Si Teng and Qin Fang officially began.
The first episode ended quickly, and the two girls outside the screen also came to their senses. Zhang Hanyue didn't wait for the ending song to finish and quickly clicked on the second episode.
[Sito] Each episode is 40 minutes long, and it was already 9:30 when two episodes were finished.
This drama is available on Tencent Video, Youku Video, and iQiyi. Non-members will receive 1 episode updated every Sunday to Wednesday at 20:00, with the first 2 episodes updated. Members will receive 2 episodes updated from Monday to Wednesday at 20:00, with the first 6 episodes updated.
Today is the first day of update. After watching the two free episodes, Zhang Hanyue quickly opened a membership for Tengxun Video.
"There are still four episodes left. Do you really plan to finish watching them all today?" Tu Yueying yawned.
"Anyway, tomorrow is the weekend, and I'm going to finish watching such a great show even if I have to stay up late!
"Okay, Xiaoying, just stay with me." Zhang Hanyue hugged her best friend's arm and acted coquettishly.
"I give up on you. I can only watch two more episodes with you at most. It's already late at night after watching 6 episodes. I can't stand it anymore."
"Just two episodes, Xiaoying, you're the best." After saying that, the two of them continued to click on the third episode.
On International Women's Day, the first day of the broadcast of "Sito", the total network playback volume quickly exceeded 300 million in 12 hours and exceeded 500 million in 24 hours.
The next day, eight entries related to the TV series were on the hot search list, three of which were in the top ten.
Due to Gu Wei's high popularity, the audience attracted quickly settled down and became fans of the drama, and "Sito" naturally became popular.
In the following week, the number of views of "Sito" exceeded 1 billion and 1.5 billion successively. On the "Guduo Popularity Index Ranking", "Sito" successfully topped the list with a network-wide popularity of 91 points, surpassing "All Is Well" which was broadcast on the 1st of this month.
In fact, in terms of popularity, "Sito" cannot compare with "All Is Well", but "All Is Well" is a star-rated drama with an older audience, and it is far ahead in satellite TV ratings.
"Sito" is a pure web drama, and its audience is mainly young people. It is slightly better than "All Is Well" in terms of the amount of discussion about the TV series and online data.
Every time the series of "Sito" is updated, the discussion about this drama is quite lively. It has received 36 hot searches on Weibo within three days of its launch, and the number of hot searches has now exceeded 100. The reading volume of the topic #Sito# on Weibo has also reached 2.91 billion.
Titles such as #Jingtian is so suitable for Si Teng#, #Si Teng is a Yunnan tourism promotional video#, and #Queen Si Teng brings Qin Fang to the stage# are at the top of the hot search list.
The rating of the series has also steadily increased from the initial score of 7.8, reaching a high of 8.3 points, and is now stable at 8.1, with more than 180,000 people rating it.
The person who benefited the most from the popularity of "Sito" was not Gu Wei, but the heroine Da Tiantian.
Because of this drama, Jing Tian's reputation was completely reversed, and 8 out of 10 hot search terms every day were related to her.
Whether it is her appearance or acting skills, Da Tiantian is widely recognized by netizens, and the audience who watched the show think that she is the chosen Si Teng.
This is the first time that Jingtian has been recognized by so many audiences in all these years since his debut.
[I'm really impressed by Jing Tian this time. Her movies before were bland to me, but she performed so well in the TV series Si Teng. I love her so much! I hope Jing Tian becomes popular!]
[Da Tiantian is the chosen Si Teng, so beautiful, I love this queen style so much, the tsundere queen and her loyal boyfriend, they hit my spot, so beautiful! ]
This is Gu Wei's first time playing a wimpy boyfriend role, he's a total cash-machine servant. I love the interactions between him and Si Teng, though. Apparently, being a bit wimpy isn't so bad!
[This is not the first time. I feel that the character in "Time Raiders" is a bit similar to Qin Fang. Both are the relatively weaker party when men and women get along.
Gu Wei's previous idol dramas were all about male gods and overbearing CEOs. Now he's changing his style a bit, but it's still good!
[Although Qin Fang is a loyal boyfriend, he also has his own superpowers. He's rich. Si Teng burned down the hotel, but Qin Fang was able to pay for it. He also flies and stays in the best hotels. Who can compare to him?]
[Has anyone counted how many cheongsams Jing Tian has changed into since the first episode? She is so beautiful. This TV series is her stage to show her beauty.
Sure enough, you can say Jing Tian is not popular, but you can't say she is not beautiful! 】
[After watching this drama, I became a fan of Jing Tianlu. From now on, Jing Tianlu will be my goddess. The beautiful, strong and tragic Si Teng is so cool! ]
[Before the TV series aired, some people said that Jing Tian's dramas would definitely be bad. Now they've been slapped in the face!]
[Oh my god, now that I think about it, Gu Wei, the "domestic entertainment dad," is really exaggerated. He even made Jingtian, who was "unpopular," a company he couldn't promote, a bit of a mystery.]
Jing Tian himself probably didn't expect that after so many years of debut and starring in so many big-budget movies, he still hadn't become popular, but he would become a huge star by collaborating with Gu Wei on a low-budget web drama!
This fully demonstrates the importance of following the right people. It feels like the drama "Sito" was made specifically to promote Jing Tian. The role and story are very suitable for her. Coupled with Gu Wei's popularity, the drama and the person became even more popular!
【.】
Just as netizens said, this is the first time that Jingtian has experienced the feeling of becoming a big star after so many years of debut.
Before, everyone knew that "Jingtian couldn't be made popular", which meant that Da Tiantian had become popular. This was both right and wrong. The previous Jingtian was just well-known among the people.
The big-budget movies she had filmed before, from "Warring States", "Police Story 2013" to "The Great Wall", "Kong: Skull Island" and other movies, have spread her fame, but it is not a good reputation. The audience and netizens mostly responded to her performance with abuse and denial.
As a result, even though she is very popular among the people, there are only a handful of fans who truly like her.
Because she doesn't have a good work or a good role for the audience to like.
For an actor, the audience will first like the character in the play, and then like you.
Jingtian hasn't produced a role like this in all these years.
Now that "Sito" has become a huge hit, Datiantian's fan base has grown rapidly, and countless netizens and audiences have become her fans, from liking "Sito" to liking Jingtian himself.
From the start of the broadcast of "Sito" to the present, Jing Tian can see that her number of fans is constantly rising every day when she goes online. When she opens the comments, all she sees are praising herself. She has been in an excited mood these days.
After so many years of debut, she had become indifferent to fame. Now that she has become really famous, she realized that being famous is so good and that what she has been pursuing for so many years was not wrong.
During the popular broadcast of [Sito], Gu Wei and Jing Tian accepted exclusive interviews during the day and attended events together, showing off the tacit understanding between "Sito" and "Qin Fang" in front of the camera, and the "Let Me Love You" CP became a big hit.
After checking into the hotel at night, the two of them engaged in another form of activity.
Da Tiantian was very excited about her first time experiencing fame. She was still energetic after work every day and did not fall asleep until she released all the excitement in her heart.
