Shen Wangshu felt hurt, but the media's evaluation of her was good.
The early historical introduction of this martial arts drama is somewhat heavy with the grudges and life-or-death struggles of the martial arts world. The only bright spot is the appearance of the demoness from the demonic sect at the end.
The vibrant red dress was bold and flamboyant, and the stunning beauty was unparalleled, truly making her a sight to behold.
As a result, the next day, many netizens searched for the actress who played the demoness. They not only dug up the TV series that Shen Wangshu had acted in before, but also found out that Shen Wangshu was currently playing the third female lead in Song Yihe's drama. Many netizens who knew Shen Wangshu through Meng Fangfei's Weibo also started to follow Shen Wangshu. In a short time, Shen Wangshu's popularity soared, and her number of fans skyrocketed. Even the comments under her Weibo posts became more active.
However, many more people who were captivated by the enchantress in the drama excitedly went to Shen Wangshu's Weibo and let out even louder wails.
Shen Wangshu doesn't have many Weibo posts, but the pinned one is a picture of her marriage certificate.
Another beauty has gotten married. Can't she just stay a proper dream girl?!
The comments section under this Weibo post was filled with lamentations, and I was also a little jealous of whoever did it so quickly.
Holding her phone, Shen Wangshu felt as if she had come back to life.
She only had one shot, but it seemed to be quite effective, and more viewers became aware of her, which was an unexpected bonus.
Song Yihe was a little happier.
Shen Wangshu is currently in his film crew, and now that he has gained some fame, it has naturally boosted the popularity of his film crew as well.
Shen Wangshu was only moderately famous, but her fame came at the right time, just when "Beauty in the Deep Palace" needed exposure.
He even made a special call to his old friend to thank him for cutting Shen Wangshu's hair so beautifully.
The mountains and green trees in the background were all added in post-production. Shen Wangshu's profile was even better than her whole face. Song Yihe thought that at this rate, casting Shen Wangshu as the female lead in a movie shouldn't be a problem.
In a better mood, he became even more amiable towards Shen Wangshu. Although some people in the crew were dissatisfied, they also knew that Shen Wangshu had a good relationship with Song Yihe, and that the man who was supposedly her manager but was actually her new husband was someone with considerable influence.
Moreover, Shen Wangshu had Meng Fangfei protecting her both openly and secretly, so apart from a few sarcastic remarks behind her back, no one could say anything. Shen Wangshu wasn't one to hold grudges, so the atmosphere on set was relatively harmonious. However, Song Yihe, full of confidence and high spirits about the show, knew that his old friend was not in a good mood.
Although "The Swordsman of Tianshan" had good ratings at the beginning, it was actually a flop.
It's easy to imagine that when a show starts airing, if the audience's attention isn't focused on the male lead or the plot, but rather on a cameo role, then the show is in trouble.
While I can console myself that neither the female lead nor the second female lead has appeared, what was the male lead doing?
This drama is a martial arts epic, and the male lead is supposed to carry most of the show. However, Zhou Chen not only failed to deliver a standout performance, but was also criticized for having only a pretty face and lacking the heroic spirit and high morale of the swordsman in the original novel.
That's for sure. When Zhou Chen was filming on set, he looked like he was on the verge of death, and everyone knew why. But when it was finally shown on screen, people realized that the situation was much worse. Some people on the show's official website were already complaining about whether the male lead had eaten, a sad topic indeed.
While browsing Weibo, Shen Wangshu saw several posts criticizing Zhou Chen, who all felt that Zhou Chen was just a pretty boy. He was alright when it came to romance, but when it came to fighting with a sword, he seemed powerless.
It completely failed to portray the demeanor of a swordsman.
Of course, Shen Wangshu also understood why.
In his past life, Zhou Chen wasn't overpowered by President Song, so he naturally had the strength to play the role well. However, in this life, he has to deal with President Zhou. Just looking at the whip marks on his body that day, you could tell that President Zhou wasn't a peaceful person. If he could still concentrate on acting under such circumstances, that would be quite dedicated. She knew that the drama that once made Zhou Chen famous had been ruined by his performance. She curled the corners of her lips and casually checked the official website of "Tianshan Swordsman." The official website of this drama was now a disaster, with fans of the original novel already criticizing it.
Not only were people criticizing the male lead Zhou Chen, but they were also criticizing the two female characters.
The lead actress was one thing, but Luo Xin, who played the second lead, was absolutely slammed by netizens.
"After watching ten episodes, the female character who left the deepest impression on me was actually the first generation of the Demonic Cult's enchantress!"
"You're playing a demoness more innocent than a saint? Did you wander onto the wrong set?"
"The first demoness would cry: Look at my worthless successor!"
Shen Wangshu couldn't stop laughing. She looked at Luo Xin, who was also wearing a red dress in the promotional photo, but with a pitiful look in her eyes. Then she looked at the righteous and awe-inspiring female lead next to her and couldn't help but smile.
"Why are you looking at them?" Shen Xuan sat down beside her, put his arm around her waist, and said with disgust, "Women like that are disgusting to look at." His eyes flickered, and he said softly, "They're really an eyesore."
"What have you done now?" With their own drama coming to an end, Shen Wangshu suddenly felt a little reluctant to part with it. She turned around, hugged Shen Xuan's neck, and said with a smile, "Don't let anyone have any leverage over us."
She didn't resent Shen Xuan for avenging her, and Shen Xuan's eyes immediately lit up.
"Some time ago, that President Song came to our door." Shen Xuan took a sip of the coffee next to Shen Wangshu, found it a little sweet, licked his lips with his tongue, and then said softly, "We have some cooperation, and I mentioned it briefly."
