Chapter 233
This is the fourth year that Ling Sui has won the annual championship with a hit drama
In late October, "Under the Wave" is still on the air.
The early plot of "The Wave" relied on hot social topics such as marriage crisis and divorce to attract audiences. When Li Xiang finally got divorced, her rapidly developing career pushed the plot to another climax.
After all, the historical background of the wave was the beginning of reform and opening up in the last century. As long as you dare to think and work hard, there are business opportunities everywhere. Under the guidance of the Provincial Propaganda Department, Li Xiang's role is to "follow the party and be the first group of people to get rich."
Whether they are viewers who like to watch Li's career and how she makes money, or viewers who like to watch "the ex-husband and mother-in-law finally regret their divorce", they are all whetted by the plot of Langchao and keep chasing the show enthusiastically, squatting in front of their tablets or TVs every 7:30.
Chen Hai, played by Huang Rui, has appeared more frequently recently, and his new love line and Shura scene have also attracted the audience's attention. In just a few days, Huang Rui has become the leading actor in the Inspur crew with the largest increase in fans. Many netizens are watching and waiting. Does he have a chance to become the Son-in-law 3.0?
It might be a bit difficult considering the type of subject matter of The Wave, but Huang Rui was not interested in this originally. He has been hanging out on various platforms these days, reading many reviews of The Wave posted by bloggers, and the more he reads, the happier he feels.
Yes, that's right. "Under the Wave" is so good to watch. The acting skills of the leading actors are superb, and the best among them is naturally Ling Suisui.
Huang Rui was pleasantly surprised to find that in the secondary creation of #Under the Wave#, the plot commentary accounted for a large proportion and the number of views was also good. This is certainly good news for Huang Rui, who hopes to have a representative work.
Whether it is bloggers willing to make commentary videos or netizens who like to watch plot explanations, market demand has led to a virtuous circle in this regard, which can prove that "Under the Wave" is a good drama with a substantial plot and high quality. Otherwise, where would the space for explanation come from?
Moreover, Inspur’s storyline explanation is not just a summary of “This woman is called Xiaomei” type; the videos with the highest number of views are all in-depth analyses of the details. Huang Rui once saw a video in which Li Xiang went back to Li's house for dinner.
In the video, Li Xiang's eyes stayed on the chicken leg on the dining table. Then she watched her mother put the chicken leg into the bowl of her grandson, Li Xiang's nephew, and looked away.
This scene only lasts one second in the main film, but the blogger took it out to explain it, and it received 500,000 likes and nearly 100,000 comments. Even on Douzi Video, which has the largest number of users, the data is considered to be relatively good for a self-media account.
In the video, the blogger first played some of the previous clips to fill in the cause and effect for netizens.
At this time, Li Xiang had already divorced Yan Xuejun, which was a big event in the county town in the 1980s. In addition, Li Xiang went to set up a stall again, and the conservative Li family members had some complaints about her. However, when she earned money and bought a chicken for dinner, the Li family suppressed their dissatisfaction.
The plot of this second happens at this moment. Since this is not in the original novel, the blogger put forward his own guess.
When Li Xiang looks at this chicken leg, does she expect her family to give it to her? Chicken legs are often considered the most delicious part of the whole chicken, and the elders in many families will save them for the youngest or most beloved children.
But her mother didn't do that, so she looked away in disappointment. Because she was already an adult and was too embarrassed to compete with her nephew for a chicken leg, her disappointment only lasted for a moment and passed quickly.
Or maybe Li Xiang was just used to it. As a girl in the family and living in an era when resources were not abundant, she might have never eaten chicken legs. That's why she was able to deal with her disappointment so quickly and not let it affect her mood.
This is the charm of a top actor - even if it's just a one-second shot, even without any lines, Ling Suisui can still touch the softest corner of the audience's hearts.
In the comment section of this video, half of the comments were praising Ling Suisui for her good acting, while the other half were crying for Li Xiang and themselves. There were many netizens in the comments section offering warm comfort.
Huang Rui also felt tears welling up in his eyes. The occasional fragility revealed did not affect Li Xiang's strong character, but instead made the character more three-dimensional and full of flesh and blood.
Ling Suisui has handled this aspect very well. It is precisely because Li Xiang is so sensible that people feel particularly sorry for him.
He found the script of The Wave and turned to the page corresponding to this scene, wanting to see how Li Xiang felt at the time.
To his surprise, the script for this scene did not contain any description of Li Xiang's psychology, nor did it include this look. So, this is Ling Suisui's free performance on the spot, which was selected by the director from materials from multiple angles and edited into the film.
How amazing! Huang Rui exclaimed from the bottom of his heart. There are not many actors in the entertainment industry who can truly achieve the goal of "others lifting the role", but Ling Suisui must be one of them.
Every time he thought he had seen the limits of Ling Sui's abilities, she would always give him new surprises.
There are many similar "instant-second-to-become-famous" shots in "Under the Wave". Huang Rui is now full of confidence in the long tail of this drama. Not to mention three months, it will still be a classic three years later.
He is not exaggerating. This is the audience's heartfelt love and recognition for Inspur. Just yesterday, the market share of "Under the Wave", which has "no advantage in online broadcasting", officially exceeded 50%, fully demonstrating the terrifying influence of the top dramas.
Well, in this niche track, the threshold for becoming a hit drama has also been raised by Ling Sui. Huang Rui took another look at the number of views and felt that the average number of views per episode would definitely exceed 100 million by the end of the month, and that he would be able to enter Yunhe’s 5 billion club within the year.
The small annual championship was won again. Fans of the same profession are all trembling with fear, this is the fourth year that the big devil Ling Sui has occupied the annual championship with a hit drama!
The fans of the traffic star, who used to fight with each other and dislike each other, are united as never before at this moment.
Don't get me wrong, they don't dare to do anything to Ling Suisui, they just pray that she can move to the big screen as soon as possible. Didn’t someone say that Hollywood wanted to invite her to make a movie? Please ask her to go quickly and make a name for herself abroad. If she is a top-level boss, don't come back to the domestic entertainment industry!
Ling Sui, who is in California, cannot hear their calls, but she is indeed thinking about her future career development.
In the field of TV dramas, she has not yet encountered a script that particularly moves her, and the "female sovereignty plot" written by her own company is still in the difficult process of incubation. She asked Xiao Tang a few days ago that she had already written the ninth version of the outline, and the previous eight versions were not completely scrapped, so she still needed to make some choices.
As for the movie... the big promise that Warner had made for her before actually came true. They wanted her to play a villain-like protagonist.
Ling Suisui roughly understood the plot, and it was hard to say whether Warner did it on purpose - Dilland asked her to play a fairy-tale princess who represented beauty and kindness, and Warner also asked her to play the princess, but the image of this princess was very ironic and subversive, which even made Ling Suisui a little worried about whether the film could be released in China.
Let’s put it this way, Qiao Xintong’s “badness” is only reflected in the emotions of adults. She even only plays with elites of the same class as herself and never bothers ordinary people. Among the bad guys, she can only sit at the table with newborn babies.
The role that Warner wanted her to play was basically a collection of female villain images from ancient and modern film and television works at home and abroad. If someone thinks she's not bad enough, it's only because the screenwriter has limited imagination about women doing evil.
Comparing these two characters, to say that one is smaller than the other is an insult to both. Although Warner said that the plot is still being adjusted and there may be relatively large changes, the character of the protagonist will basically not change, which is the core content of the movie.
Ling Sui was a little hesitant, as she felt the role was quite challenging. Hollywood is really capable of filming villain protagonists, and the ending doesn’t have to be forced to be whitewashed, but if the screenwriter and director are too obsessed with a certain label, the content of the script will become empty and boring.
She put the project in the "important but not urgent" to-do category and decided to observe and follow up for a while. It was Werner who was going to make the movie. They were not in a hurry, so she was even less in a hurry.
"Beauty and the Beast" started filming in early November, so Ling Suisui still had a short period of free time. Instead of traveling, she stayed in her hotel room, most often going to the gym.
Here, she often meets James, the male protagonist of the movie. It can be seen that he has worked very hard for this movie, and his figure is stronger than the last time he was seen at Fashion Week.
James is a very dedicated actor with excellent acting skills. Ling Suisui is very happy to work with him.
Of course, Ling Sui would be happier if he could curb his playboy aura and overcome his habit of wanting to flirt with everyone he meets.
Like this time - James appeared behind her just as she got off the treadmill.
He had worked out, had a shower, and even smelled of perfume. Honestly, it tastes pretty good.
When Ling Suisui greeted him, she noticed that the clothes on his upper body were tighter. She reasonably suspected that he deliberately wore a T-shirt that was one size smaller to show off his well-developed and strong chest muscles.
His chest must be bigger than hers, Ling Sui thought to herself.
"Sui Sui." James read out her Chinese name, "If I could invite you to dinner, it would be the happiest thing for me today."
Again, he’s a very good actor.
Ling Suisui smiled and refused: "Forget it. I would rather see good news about the movie appear in the news than gossip."
She has no time to date men as her career is not yet successful. Whenever she has some free time, you can just make a pinky promise and she'll be yours. No rush.
