TPH Chapter 13

The Protagonist’s Halo [Arc 1] Chapter 13: Entertainment Circle Vase (18)

Even the fans who hated Su Man the most were shaken, let alone the passers-by on the Internet, who were completely attracted to her.

No one dares to believe that this is Su Man, a vase with nothing to her good points except her face and romance with the movie king. It seems like a dream, but every time the drama is broadcast, people lick the screen and praise it crazily with a disapproving tone but an honest attitude.

The ratings of “Empty Star” have also soared. By the twelfth episode, it has exceeded 6, and the title of the best drama of the year is within reach. This is only one-third of the progress. If it maintains this level, we can expect “Empty Star” to break records and become a hit.

Given the skyrocketing discussion volume and surging number of fans about Su Man, no one can ignore the importance of Su Man to the show.

Both Su Man’s Weibo and the crew’s official Weibo were very lively. But the main character did not respond, but the director and screenwriter took the initiative to speak out when they saw the good situation.

Director Zhang’s praise for Su Man is almost as good as some of the rainbow farts from online fans. He claimed that Su Man is the best actress he has ever seen, especially in this drama, where her acting skills have undergone a complete transformation. In the end, he gave her such a high evaluation as “versatile styles and unlimited possibilities.”

The screenwriter is like a complete fangirl. She frankly said that after watching several of Su Man’s scenes on site, she put a lot of effort into writing the plots added later. The plots she added not only enriched the story line of the character Xiao Yue, but also explored her charm to the extreme. She has Su Man’s unique style, gentle and abusive temperament, a soft and tender bright side, and a lonely and sad dark side. Her beauty is deceptive, but she doesn’t make people hate her at all.

Although this screenwriter is less than 30 years old, she is already a golden screenwriter in the circle. The scripts written by her have always been highly praised and highly rated.

She also expressed that she would be happy to write a script tailored for Su Man.

After hearing this, Su Man’s fans started screaming like crazy on Weibo.

Even though she was heavily criticized by Ji Yanhuai’s fans for her remarks, she did not change her attitude. She even changed her Weibo profile picture to a screenshot of Xiao Yue in the drama, and made no secret of the fact that she was a fangirl of Su Man.

Fangirls are not scary, but fangirls who can write scripts are scary.

The support from the director and screenwriter gradually dissipated the negative public opinions criticizing Su Man for adding more scenes.

Although the fans who defended Ji Yanhuai dared to scold the “brainless” director and screenwriter, they were ultimately unable to save the situation. More and more passers-by’s word-of-mouth and boiling tap water recommendations also made Su Man more popular, and her image in the public’s eyes changed dramatically.

Agent Zhou Zhuo was quite dissatisfied with the remarks made by the director and screenwriter of the “Empty Star” crew.

Ji Yanhuai frowned and said coldly, “I don’t remember asking you to do these unnecessary things.”

Agent Zhou Zhuo hesitated for a moment. He indeed did not inform Ji Yanhuai in advance, and even deliberately asked other team members not to tell him.

“I’m doing this for your own good.”

Could it be that Su Man would step on Ji Yanhuai to get to the top? At worst, he would be the villain, and Ji Yanhuai would be his perfect actor, the noble son of the entertainment industry.

Zhou Zhuo had a good idea.

But he didn’t know that Ji Yanhuai had also thought about inviting Su Man to Tianhuang Company, otherwise he would be even more furious. Not many people knew about it, and Ji Yanhuai didn’t want everyone to know that he had been rejected for helping out once in a while.

Strangely enough, when Su Man was still his girlfriend, fans attacked and insulted Su Man in every possible way, but he never said anything.

Now it’s not fast enough.

Perhaps he had an unexpected change of heart towards Su Man, and the previous online comments would not include him. How could Ji Yanhuai’s fans bear to let their bright and innocent male god be tainted with any dirty words.

While agent Zhou Zhuo was still ranting on, Ji Yanhuai was paying attention to the computer screen. As more and more episodes were aired, some professional and substantive reviews had appeared online.

There are many long articles or sharp short reviews.

“…Ji Yanhuai’s aura as the best actor is still very bright, but Su Man did not lose any luster under this aura. Instead, she was extremely outstanding. This really surprised me.”

“What I saw was not Su Man, but an actor who seemed born for acting. I originally thought that the role of Su Man was just a vase symbol. Her beauty was definitely enough. Even in jpg mode, she was beautiful. But in the end, it was not her appearance that caught your attention, but her as a person.”

“She hides too many emotions. She only flashes a gentle look in front of the male protagonist. Under the pretended calmness, one can feel her deep feelings that seem to be engraved on her heart. The pause for a moment is done very naturally.”

In other words, in the eyes of people in the industry, Ji Yanhuai’s performance did not drop below his usual level, but the one who really surprised them was Su Man.

Ji Yanhuai felt the subtle gap at this moment,

It was different from the pressure he felt when he was acting opposite Su Man on the set. This was more like being torn apart, exposed naked in front of everyone, which made him feel indescribably complicated.

As for the fans that Zhou Zhuo, the agent, mentioned, who had left, went to Su Man, Ji Yanhuai didn’t care much, “It’s just a few fans.”

“As for some things, you should not go too far. I don’t want it to be heard that I am suppressing others.”

Ji Yanhuai stared at him with sharp eyes.

Agent Zhou Zhuo was a little disappointed, he knew that Ji Yanhuai was giving him a serious warning.

“Empty Star” is still on the air, and the plot has reached the scene where Xiao Yue shoots and kills someone in a hotel.

The barrage, Weibo comments, etc. were all blown up, “Fuck, Xiao Yue actually shot and killed, where did she get the gun?”

“I have a very bad feeling, Xiao Yue’s ending will not be BE, right?”

“Please give Xiao Yue a good ending. She is the heroine.”

“This drama needs to be approved. Xiao Yue killing someone will definitely not have a good ending.”

“Cheng Xing, you still doubt Xiao Yue’s love for you. She is willing to kill for you. God, I love this kind of sickly and dark little sister.”

“If Xiao Yue dies, I will send a razor blade to the director.”

…

After the two episodes were aired tonight, the discussion almost entirely focused on Xiao Yue, played by Su Man. As for what other people played, the audience didn’t care at all.

Some people praised Xiao Yue for her charm to a new level, some threatened the director team and the TV station to send razor blades, and there were thousands of comments petitioning for a good ending for Xiao Yue.

It can be seen that the character of Xiao Yue has truly penetrated into people’s hearts and is unforgettable.

If the audience still had hope for a happy ending for Xiao Yue, the closer it got to the ending, the weaker this hope became, with fans throwing tantrums under the official Weibo account every day.

#Xiao Yue is dead# directly topped the trending search list.

For some netizens who dare not watch the ending, they were shocked. This spoiler came so unexpectedly.

“Slag Lang, tell me what’s going on!!!!!!!!!”

“I was working overtime and didn’t catch up to watch the live broadcast. I was thinking I would never click on the barrage and didn’t dare to see the spoilers, but you actually gave me a hot search.”

“Tell me this isn’t true.”

“I’m going to pick up a knife and kill the director.”

No matter how crazy I was, I couldn’t help myself and clicked on it.

“I seem to have done a lot of wrong things, but… I have always loved you.”

Because of this sentence, the barrage of comments was heartbreaking.

The number of comments is still increasing, and the number of private messages to the official blog is exploding.

“That last laugh was so heartwarming, it made me cry ahhhhhhhhh.”

“In my opinion, the beauty of this drama lies in Su Man’s eyes. The emotion of this drama lies in Su Man’s tearful smile at the end. Ahhhhh, I don’t care. I still can’t accept that Xiao Yue died like this.”

“Empty Star” is like saying that Cheng Xing is a shooting star that streaks across her sad life, extremely bright and beautiful, but fleeting.”

“This character fully embodies the devil and schizophrenia. The crying scene at the end was so touching that I really broke down in tears. But I couldn’t help but watch it over and over again. It was like magic. I didn’t even have enough tissues.”

“I dreamed that I became Xiao Yue’s guardian knight.”

The explosive comments and the crazy sending of knives all show how popular the character of Xiao Yue is, and they have easily become loyal fans of Su Man.

There were also many comments that expressed anger towards Cheng Xing because of Xiao Yue’s death. Even though he cried his heart out at the ending, it did not reduce the audience’s anger.

“There are many people around you, but Xiao Yue only has you. She only has room for you.”

“You let her know the taste of love and the hope of happiness, but in the end you didn’t give her happiness.”

“The final sincere confession was so desperate and all-out. Cheng Xing, have you ever really understood her? Do you know her pain and despair?”

“Cheng Xing, do you know that you are the person Xiao Yue cherishes most, the person she is willing to protect with her life.”

Analytical reviews of the character Xiao Yue have also emerged, many of which express the true feelings of fans.

“Xiao Yue actually doesn’t know how to love someone. She also said this at the end. She did a lot of wrong things, and no one taught her how to love someone. Her mother’s love was too paranoid and crazy, and her father’s love was too cold and ruthless. Growing up in such an environment, how could she learn to love someone well?

She was always restrained, and it was Cheng Xing who made her relax little by little and open her heart to him.

Xiao Yue’s life is tragic.

The way she finally loved Cheng Xing was to put herself on the path to death. ”

…

The second most searched topic was the ratings of “Empty Star”, which reached an astonishing number.

Su Man’s acting skills have once again become a hot topic. How many people burst into tears and were heartbroken by her final confession. Now, if anyone says that Su Man is a vase on the Internet, a large number of people will come to criticize them in minutes. If this doesn’t go viral, it will be unforgivable.
