Chen Yuanhang didn't take it seriously, but Wei Lan became popular again because of this show.
Originally, the news about her "boldly touching" "Star Wars" was all negative news on the Internet. However, after she and Su Yining participated in "Actors Go Forward", some subtle changes suddenly occurred.
#苏沂宁什麼怪血短片# quickly became the third most searched topic on Weibo, with the tag "boiling" appearing directly after the topic.
There are even many short film plot analyses on forums, forums, D-sites and other platforms...
The short film was quickly converted and appeared on various online interactive platforms. Audiences who did not follow "Actors Go Forward" also quickly saw this eight-minute short film.
After watching it once, everyone was dazzled, just like the audience at the show. At the same time, they thought this episode of "Actors" was so exciting, so they decided to take a look at the works of other directors.
At first glance, it's not bad, but also - by the way, what kind of cancer did the heroine of Su Yining's short drama get in the end? Oh, let's go back and watch it.
If it wasn't for the movie promotion, Chen Yuanhang's ranking wouldn't have been used in a program like "Actors". Unlike "Rural Teachers" where only the leading actress Su Yining was famous enough to receive the program notice, in "Star Wars", Li Tongtong is not yet the protagonist. The real protagonists, the movie stars, acted separately and participated in different programs. "Star Wars" can be seen in almost every promotional channel.
The reason why Chen Yuanhang was on "Actors" was certainly not because of Li Tongtong's face, but because it is now the promotion period of "Star Wars", so even the content of the short film he shot is about Star Wars, which is equivalent to finding another channel to release the trailer.
After this episode, the "Star Wars" publicity team had already prepared a network of internet trolls and purchased marketing accounts to release a press release on the topic after the show ended.
As soon as the live broadcast came out, I found that netizens on various platforms were all discussing the short film Wei Lan shot for Su Yining:
"There is so much information in eight minutes. I think if a normal director were to make a TV series..."
'I'm sorry, I love listening to gossip and watching quarrels too much, I want to watch it again!'
'Does anyone really think this short film is simple? It's a masterpiece that brings together all the melodrama! '
'I agree, best friend betrayal, drugging at a drinking party, unspeakable secrets, rich family parent-child... and finally a terminal illness. If it weren't for the budget constraints, I suspect the director would have added a car accident.'
"Upstairs, I have already imagined the scene where the few people who slammed the door and walked out were all taken away by a large truck..."
Originally, due to Wei Lan’s negative marketing, most of the comments on the poster Wei Lan posted on Weibo were mocking, but now it has been touched by many netizens who have watched "The Actors".
'I criticized this director for riding on the popularity before, but after watching that tear-up short film, I suddenly want to watch her new movie. This is a feeling I didn't have even after watching "Sword IV" before...'
"Just because she worked so hard on the advertisement even after winning the competition, I think I can wait and see the movie."
'Yeah, did you notice? This time Wei Lan participated in the show, and there was "Star Wars", and there was also director Chen Yuanhang. I used to think she was annoying for trying to get attention from a distance, but now seeing how seriously and hard she is trying... I actually feel a little pity for her? ? '
'Now that I think about it, I realize that I am also... Is this a resonance from the workers? Come on, workers.'
The situation is full of twists and turns, and completely negative marketing is not enough. Wei Lan successfully restored some of his reputation through this cool operation on the show.
Although the method is tricky, it is human nature to admire the strong, and everyone likes winners, so in the end everyone's attention will inevitably be attracted to Wei Lan.
Several other directors participating in "Actors" participated in this type of program for the first time and were still using traditional thinking to shoot.
Wei Lan's purpose was very clear from the beginning. He didn't intend to show any spiritual connotation. His main goal was to win, leave a deep impression on the audience and then leave, and also find an opportunity to advertise.
After receiving the script that day and trying out the attention test plug-in, Wei Lan came up with a winning strategy.
In fact, Wei Lan had some doubts. After she had done this, other directors who wanted to win in the future would probably learn from her trick, and then the direction of the entire program group might be led astray.
But, it’s none of her business at that time, right?
In fact, it is true. Later, the program went wrong. In order to win, the star directors specially shot some eye-catching and melodramatic short films, so that "Actors Go Forward" later began to have aliases such as "Actors' Quarrel Collection" and "Dog-Blooded Go Forward".
In this regard, when the audience analyzes and comments, they always mention Wei Lan, the culprit and the source of all evil:
"Everything started when a panda suddenly appeared on the show that day..."
Of course, this is all in the past.
…
If the popularity of Wei Lan and "Rural Teachers" is an upward trend of a positive function, the content related to this popularity has always been negative. Until this time when she appeared on the variety show and won the championship with Su Yining, who had not appeared for a long time, many netizens' impression of her changed.
I even think that the director's ideas are novel and interesting.
Wei Lan is young enough and his performance is eye-catching enough, or in other words, before you show a certain level of strength, if you act in a high-profile manner, people will only think you are trying to attract attention, but when you show your strength, some people will think you are unique and will be attracted to you.
To sum up, Wei Lan’s reputation is not purely negative now, but a mixture of praise and criticism.
As the popularity of the variety show has almost fermented, Wei Lan posted a new Weibo:
'Are you ready to appear before the Earthlings? Civilization Scout. @苏亦宁v'
Here is a poster:
The scene is at a deserted seaside, and the first ray of sunlight in the morning jumps out of the water at the junction of the sea and the sky.
Su Yining was wearing a white dress and was stepping out of the water. She put two fingers of her left hand together and placed them on her forehead, where there was a bright spot emitting a faint blue light.
On the sea behind her, there was a drop-shaped metal with a diameter of about one meter suspended. Its texture was mysterious, like a ball of flowing mercury.
There was no expression on Su Yining's face. All that could be seen was her black hair being blown by the wind, revealing her exquisite and impeccable face. Her black eyes looked through the poster, as if they could see into people's hearts. There was an indescribable mystery and majesty.
As soon as you see this scene, you know that the character she plays in the movie is definitely not a human.
Wei Lan, who was already at the center of the spotlight, responded almost immediately after refreshing:
'?!'
'I was wondering before, no wonder she was on the show with Su Yining! It turns out she is the heroine of the movie! '
'Su Yining is so pretty... The poster is pretty cool and has a nice texture.'
"Are those the ones I bought? You've been watching sci-fi for so long, but have you ever seen a spaceship this small? The low cost shouldn't mean the size of the spaceship is reduced, right? It's sci-fi after all!"
"A new director, a Golden Raspberry actress, a low-budget sci-fi... Just by listening to the configuration, you can imagine how disastrous it is. Unless you announce that the male lead is an award-winning actor, the situation will be irreversible."
"So this is the reason why you keep playing up the mystery. You're afraid that if you tell it to others, no one will be looking forward to the release [狗头]"
The marketing accounts were keenly waiting for the opportunity, and big Vs and small Vs also reposted the news, and everyone was excited to watch the show again.
Although Wei Lan had appeared on "Actors" with Su Yining before, many people speculated whether she had starred in Wei Lan's movie, but in the end there were many different opinions and no conclusion. Now the dust has finally settled.
Obviously, this disclosure has pushed the film's popularity in a negative direction.
For the first "electric" work, Wei Lan dared to ask Su Yining, who just won the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress, to shoot it. Most of the onlookers thought that Wei Lan was just throwing in the towel.
Only some viewers who were attracted by Wei Lan and Su Yining's fans who just watched "The Actor" still have positive expectations for the quality of the film:
"I think Wei Lan is quite talented. She participated in a skit on the show and the main character was Su Yining. It didn't break down. At least I didn't feel it was out of place."
"Ningning and Director Wei are both great, go for it!"
Just one day later, the evaluation of "Rural Teachers" seemed to have lowered a bit, and Wei Lan updated his Weibo again.
This time, she released a thirty-second trailer.
The screen lit up, and the scene showed what looked to be a high-level scientific research center, with many scientists in white coats and people in military uniforms walking around.
“Why did she choose this female college student who committed suicide?”
The speaker was an elderly academician with a strong scholarly temperament. He looked knowledgeable and his expression was excited yet serious. Around him were scientists, senior officials, and military personnel who also had serious expressions.
"Does their civilization differentiate between genders? She chose women, 20-year-old women. Can we analyze some of the values and social relations of this civilization?"
As the academician spoke, Su Yining appeared on the screen. She was wearing an ordinary white dress and looking calm as she visited various high-tech laboratories surrounded by a group of scientists and senior officials.
"We still can't make a rash conclusion. Based on comprehensive judgment, there is a 65% chance that the choice of female is due to the fact that the civilization is more matriarchal, a 34% chance that it is a genderless society, and a 1% chance that it is a random factor of personal choice."
"The good news is that, because of her, the body of this female college student who would have died survived. Perhaps we can judge that their civilization does not have a negative attitude towards life..."
With a brisk rhythm, the academicians narrated their analysis of Su Yining at a very fast speed.
The scene turns to Su Yining, and He Zixuan, who guest-starred as a young scientist, couldn't help but ask: "Can I know why you chose this body?"
Su Yining stopped.
The people accompanying her also stopped and looked at her nervously.
"Sure." Su Yining replied.
She raised her eyebrows and said as a matter of course: "This is the body that I have found within the range of my consciousness projection that is rated the highest in your aesthetic sense."
The people around were all stunned, but when these words came out of Su Yining's mouth, it was really hard to refute...
The professor who had just conducted a scientific and social psychological analysis of the aliens was also stunned and couldn't help but say:
“Aliens also look at faces?”
The screen went black and the trailer ended.
