That day, Xiao He's Weibo was unusually lively.
[Brother Xiao, you...sigh, you're really infuriating. I'm unfollowing you for a while; I need to take some time to recover.]
[I followed Mu Ze, unfollowed Zhu Laosan, but then Shen Jue's handsomeness made me a fan again. As for now... I'm speechless. See you next time, Xiao Ge.]
[My thought process while watching the show—when Meng Zetian first appeared: Wow, so handsome! When Meng Zetian ordered Mr. Shen to be burned alive: Damn it, go to hell!]
Wow, it's been a long time since I've hated a character this much. The last one was Zhu Laosan.
[Plainly speaking, it was another day I was blown away by Xiao Ge's acting skills. The moment Meng Zetian appeared, his imposing presence completely overwhelmed his subordinates. I knew then that he was going to be a ruthless character.]
Indeed, and I don't know if it's just my perception, but his makeup seemed more natural. When the camera moved from Li Shuo to him, I didn't feel out of place at all.
Haha, I get what the person upstairs means.
What does that mean? I don't understand.
[So you're saying Su Shengxi's acting was terrible? What else don't you understand? Can't you see where your eyes are? He was the most distracting character in the whole scene! Especially the part where Old Master Shen calmly faces death, that veteran actor's performance was superb, his lines and emotions were spot on, and I even had tears in my eyes by the end. But then the camera panned to Su Shengxi, and all he could do was stare blankly, like a clueless student who couldn't understand what the teacher was saying. It made me so angry.]
To be honest, Su Shengxi is really on a different level from the others. Everyone else is very immersed in their roles and fits the characters perfectly, but Su Shengxi remains fair-skinned and innocent, just being himself throughout.
[Yesterday someone said this was Su Shengxi's transformation, which really cracked me up. What's there to transform him from? From a pretty face in the music industry to a pretty face in the acting industry? That would be impressive, though. Staying true to himself and true to his original aspirations.]
[Haha, this is hilarious! I have to offer my critique based on these scathing comments from netizens.]
[You absolutely must see it! I highly recommend "Shining Stars"! Except for one person, everyone's acting is superb! Especially Xiao He! He really amazed me. The scene where he takes the letter and acts opposite Zhang Mo completely put me in Li Shuo's shoes. I couldn't help but feel a jolt of tension, a sense of having my identity exposed. Xiao He's acting is truly amazing; he holds his own against Zhang Mo in their scenes together!]
[Please update! Update quickly! This is the most captivating spy drama I've ever watched. What are you guys doing, production team? Hurry up and upload all the remaining episodes!]
Clearly, Xiao He's portrayal of Meng Zetian won everyone's approval as soon as he appeared on screen.
Of course, this "approval" was tinged with some resentment.
Even Xiao He's mother called him that very night, hesitant to speak, and finally only asked one question: "Did the bastard you played die in the end?"
Xiao He: "...Then they'll definitely die."
"Good riddance! It was a very good death!"
Xiao's mother instantly became happy.
Xiao He: "...Or, I'll spoil the rest of the plot for you—"
"don't want!"
Xiao's mother immediately interrupted Xiao He, and after a moment of silence, asked, "Later on, you were all—cough cough, were the characters you played all beasts?"
Xiao Hehan: "More or less."
"Then let's forget about it..." Xiao's mother muttered, "I'll tell your dad not to watch it either, he's too immersed in it, otherwise we'd both want to fly over and beat you up."
