During their stay in the capital, Xiao He and Liu Rulan visited several important figures in the city.
To Xiao He's surprise, most of these people remembered him and had even seen his works.
I initially thought these were just compliments from big shots, but after chatting with them for a while, I realized they weren't just flattering me; they had actually seen it.
In particular, when he visited the home of a certain big shot, the first thing the big shot's mother called out when she saw Xiao He was "Meng Zetian".
Xiao He: ...
It's nice to be remembered by elders, but something just doesn't feel right.
After meeting these bigwigs and returning to his hotel to use his phone, Xiao He discovered that there were new online discussions about him.
Moreover, this topic is quite unique.
Netizens are discussing his popularity among older generations.
Xiao He: ?
What's there to discuss?
The level of fame of ordinary actors! They can't possibly be known by everyone, can they?
Until Xiao He flipped to the next topic.
If you haven't seen Xiao He in your family group chat or WeChat Moments, it just means you don't know enough elders.
Xiao He: ?
Under this topic, a netizen found that an elder was forwarding the video trailer for Xiao He's "Chasing the Wind" while browsing through a family group chat.
To be honest, Xiao He was already quite shocked when he saw that "The Legend of Chasing the Wind" had a video channel.
In his memory, the production team's publicity efforts mainly revolved around two platforms.
One Weibo account, one musical note.
These two places have the most young people and are also battlegrounds where fans of celebrities hang out year-round.
When almost every drama is being promoted, both sides need to invest a lot of money in marketing. In fact, in order to maintain the superficial popularity, they need to constantly create false topics and create the illusion of a hit.
As for other platforms, although they may have different focuses, they rarely create separate video accounts.
Because the main audience here is mostly older generations, and there are very few young people still watching video accounts, and many celebrities nowadays have an audience mainly among young people, it is difficult for them to have the same appeal as older generation actors. Therefore, many drama promotions have almost "abandoned" this group.
But no one expected that "The Legend of Chasing the Wind" would take such an unconventional path.
And this unusual path... it actually led to the right one!
The plot of "The Legend of Chasing the Wind" has a pure martial arts style. The male lead has an upright appearance and smooth fighting scenes, which perfectly match the image of a martial arts hero in the hearts of the older generation.
According to their generation's aesthetic standards, a boy who is thin and weak, with a delicate appearance and feminine clothing, does not fit their image of a chivalrous hero at all.
Many people prefer the image of a chivalrous hero who is dignified, upright, and elegant, yet unpretentious.
Xiao He's attire and appearance perfectly match this.
The smooth fight scene, which only lasted a few seconds, brought back memories of those days.
What? This young man also played Meng Zetian and Mo Tun?
That's amazing! He can play both villains and heroes. You can tell he went through a lot of trials before finally landing the lead role.
Young man, bold and composed! Worth following!
Fans who know about Xiao He's career development: ...I don't know if he finally got to play a good guy, but I do know that Brother Xiao likes to play villains.
If there were a very important villainous supporting character and a very important protagonist, then Brother Xiao would definitely choose the villain without hesitation!
It's all tears when I talk about it. Such a good actor, he just kept exploring the diversity of villainous roles. How are the others supposed to survive?
But something's not right. Why is Brother Xiao playing the righteous protagonist?
And he's such an upright and righteous martial arts protagonist?
Oh no, could this Song Chenye be a wolf in sheep's clothing?
Perhaps there's some conspiracy lurking behind this...
However, seeing that their elders were completely unaware, everyone unanimously decided to remain silent.
