Some people followed the director and actors from the beginning, while others followed them later, but they still did some research on the production team while waiting for the updates.
They haven't forgotten the trending topics that "The Legend of Chang'an" made during its promotion.
At that time, netizens pushed the hashtag "Chang'an Five Beauties" to the top of the trending search list, and Wen Yan's nickname "CP Queen" became popular around that time.
At that time, netizens were urging Wen Yan to choose them, and as a result, the director and the "Five Beauties of Chang'an" all started interacting with Wen Yan on social media. The scene was like gods fighting, and everyone couldn't get enough of it.
Now everyone's calling for something funny again.
Gu Xiran and Wen Yan discussed it and decided to post an update, tagging Wen Yan in the comments.
Gu Xiran: If *The Legend of Chang'an* surpasses 100 million views, I'll perform a hot dance for everyone. But you all have to watch it! Although my confession failed, my boss and I are both professionals, and our on-screen chemistry is absolutely flawless. Also, I have no plans to terminate my contract anytime soon. If everyone thinks it's effective, I'd like to team up with my boss again sometime. @WenYan
Gu Xiran had already informed Wen Yan before posting this update.
Therefore, Wen Yan quickly replied to Gu Xiran.
Wen Yan: @Gu Xiran, it was a very pleasant collaboration this time. Let's do it again next time!
Not only that, Wen Yan also posted a professionally edited behind-the-scenes photo from the set.
The two posted their updates one after the other, which kept the drama's fans very busy.
'I can't keep up with all the comments! I wanted to check the comments section, but it's updating so fast. Gu Xiran and Wen Yan really have a lot of active fans!'
"What did I tell you? Always ready to oblige, they'll do whatever you ask. This is the first time I've seen celebrities who can't be a real-life couple, so they're asking fans online to watch their fake on-screen couple act."
'I have to say, this couple's after-sales service is top-notch, haha, I love that kind of dedication.'
"I understand, I understand. Some on-screen couples start avoiding each other after they've exhausted their CP value. They're all over each other while the show's airing, but as soon as it's over, they act like enemies, not generous at all. It's much more satisfying to watch couples like Gu Xiran and Wen Yan."
'Hehe, our Ran-ge has always been true to his nature. Of course, Wen Yan is also quite nice.'
"That's right. After all, he's the boss; he needs to have that kind of perspective. If Gu Xiran doesn't terminate his contract, he'll be the top guy in their company, okay?"
'Well, he might not be the top dog, but he's definitely the company's cash cow.'
If she can't even find someone like Gu Xiran appealing, what kind of person does Wen Yan actually like?
'Regardless of the situation, both of them are genuine and say what they mean. Their interactions are very comfortable to watch.'
Therefore, with the popularity of the drama, Wen Yan's online reputation changed dramatically almost overnight.
While Wen Yan was collecting information, He Xing was reading online comments aloud.
"There's a highly upvoted comment saying that 'The Legend of Chang'an' is Wen Yan's get-out-of-jail-free card for me. Another person said that I've developed a filter for Wen Yan because of 'The Legend of Chang'an'. ... Yan Yan, everything is moving in a positive direction. It's true that water can carry a boat but also capsize it; success and failure both depend on Xiao He."
I'm not exaggerating when I say I recognize several of these IDs and nicknames. Two of them were really vicious when they were attacking us, but now they're completely different people, which is baffling. If I were them, I definitely wouldn't have joined in the attacking in the first place.
"Who cares about them? Isn't it good that they've stopped cursing?" Wen Yan turned around and tugged at He Xing. "Stop looking at these comments. My printer is acting up again. Can you check if the ink cartridge is faulty? I wanted to print in color."
"Okay. You're right, I can't read these comments anymore. There's no way I can finish reading them all, it's too much of a waste of time. I just need to keep an eye on the general direction of these comments."
After finishing two film-related interviews, Wen Yan began preparing for her own film script.
She is currently gathering information online, and a lot of things need to be printed out.
As she copied and pasted, she said to He Xing, "I'm not going back to my parents' place tonight. Why don't you stay here with me so you don't have to come over early tomorrow morning?"
“Okay, this way I can also make sure you go to bed early.” Just then, He Xing suddenly received a message.
After reading it, she immediately said to Wen Yan, "Yan Yan, the production team just messaged me, asking if you're free tonight."
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"Yes, since 'The Legend of Chang'an' is a hit, the production team wants to do a live broadcast, the sooner the better, preferably tonight."
"What time?"
"They say the best time is between 7 pm and 10 pm, during prime time."
Wen Yan nodded: "Alright, there's nothing else going on tonight anyway, you can reply to them."
"Okay." He Xing had barely sent the message when the other party replied.
"They said it's eight o'clock. Let me order takeout now, so we can eat early and have some time to do your light makeup."
At 8 p.m. sharp, Wen Yan connected online with the other actors in the crew.
Because the live streaming platform has a limit on the number of people that can be connected, the director sat in the same live streaming room with several actors, while Wen Yan, Gu Xiran, and three other actors were in their own separate locations.
After everyone arrived and greeted each other, they began to get down to today's topic.
Today, the director also acted as the 'host'.
