Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 196: Great Contribution, the Best of Flowers
The popularity of the topic has always been very high, and with the release of this data, it has reached a new level.

The media has been busy for more than half a month, so it is natural that they have to work harder at this moment.

《The ratings reached 15%, setting a record high in 5 years》

Chen Linfeng: The last film with such a high rating was the sequel to Journey to the West

There are always some dramas that can go against the trend

"Is the TV drama market going to be revived? No, it's just an unrepeatable case"

……

Netizens surfing the Internet are not so sensitive to the ratings data. The main point they discuss is the plot.

[It won’t rain today: The last two episodes were really enjoyable for me. It was the first time I felt that watching a historical drama could be so exciting.]

[Flying Moonlight: I have to thank Li Yuanji for this. The moment he died, my life was fulfilled.]

[The Paladin Doesn't Ride a Horse: I feel like this drama can be presented directly to the Imperial Ancestral Temple. It's truly a classic.]

[My dear mother: This brings me to the question. Xiao Chen, don’t rush to become a director and make movies. Give me some good dramas.]

Apart from these praises, the biggest point of discussion is the character of Li Yuanji.

Because in the TV series, Fu Dalong’s character is so annoying.

So some netizens asked: What was Li Yuanji like in history? Was he so disgusting?

This immediately aroused the desire to express among some netizens who understand history.

[Monkey is not a monkey: Let me put it this way, you can't find any good points of Li Yuanji even if you look through all the history books. Not only is his character and ability not good, he is also ugly.]

[There are always villains who want to harm me: For Li Shimin, he had no choice but to fight Li Jiancheng, and they had to fight to the death. If they were not in the royal family, they would be brothers. As for Li Yuanji, if he had not taken his reputation into consideration in the fight for the throne, he would have killed him long ago.]

[Three long and one short, choose the shortest: If these three brothers were to become emperors, it would probably be:

Li Jiancheng: A King Who Preserves Success
Li Shimin: The Founding Emperor

Li Yuanji: The King Who Lost His Country

[I don't like to tell jokes: Whenever Li Shimin thought of Li Jiancheng's death in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he would fall into the pain of fratricide; but when he thought of Li Yuanji's death, Li Shimin would let it go. ]

……

Some media outlets just wanted to join in the fun and published a report, compiling a list of the most hateful characters in TV dramas throughout history.

Among them, heavyweight figures such as Rong Mama, An Jiahe, Huang Shiren, and Xue Yi are on the list.

Although Li Yuanji is a new character, he has also been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He was able to compete with these senior masters on the same stage when he was first listed, and finally ranked quite high.

It was really a great performance.

There are also some newspapers that compile some online content about netizens discussing Li Yuanji. Since the netizens are very good at making fun of them and speak in a nice way, they attract a lot of viewers and the sales of the newspapers are not low.

Liu Qianqian was one of them. She was so amused by what she saw that she even patted Chen Linfeng's arm.

"Look at this comment, it's so interesting. How did they come up with it? Netizens are so talented."

"Yeah, it's interesting. You watch first. I'll take a break."

Chen Linfeng then closed his eyes and rested. He rushed from Hengdian to Yanjing last night. He didn't sleep well on the way and now he was still a little sleepy.

Liu Qianqian stuck out her tongue embarrassedly and didn't continue to bother him.

They are at the headquarters building of China Central Television, preparing to record the program.

The first half of "The Great Tang Empire" has just finished broadcasting, and CCTV is not in a hurry to broadcast the second half immediately, but instead leaves a day in between.

We are going to make a variety show and invite some important actors from "The Great Tang Empire", including the male lead Ma Yue in the second half and Nie Yuan who plays Li Chengqian, to sit together and chat.

After this drama was released, Central China Television no longer wanted to consider the competition with Huaying Studio and whether it could win or not.

The first half is so explosive, the second half can’t be so bad.

After all, advertising fees are really good.

They are now hoping that the second half will have higher ratings than the first half, although even they themselves don't dare to think so, it would be good enough if they can maintain it.

After a while, Liu Qianqian gently pushed Chen Linfeng and said, "Xiaofeng, Teacher Tang Guoqiang and the others are here."

Chen Linfeng opened his eyes and saw that several people had indeed arrived.

Tang Guoqiang saw Xiao Chen nodding at him, so he also waved to say hello.

"Xiao Chen, I've been hearing your name a lot lately. The ratings of The Great Tang Empire are so high right now, and you deserve a lot of credit."

"I don't deserve that. We all contributed a lot. Think about the comments online recently. Many people are calling for Li Yuanji to die. Isn't this just because Teacher Fu Dalong performed well?"

Tang Guoqiang wanted to laugh when he thought of this, and he also saw the comments from those talented netizens on the Internet.

At this time, Fu Dalong came in, and Chen Baoguo quickly called him, "Hey, I was just talking about you. Your performance as Li Yuanji was great. Little Chen was full of praise for you."

Fu Dalong is a rather introverted person, and was wondering what he was being called for.

After listening to it, he smiled shyly, "It's not that I acted well, it's that Li Yuanji has a good foundation. Such a stupid and bad person is rare in the whole history."

"Haha~" Everyone laughed. Lu Yi looked at this scene with some envy. His Li Jiancheng could only be considered to have accomplished his mission, and was not particularly outstanding. Not many people discussed him.

However, as an important character in the first half, I got enough exposure and I am still very satisfied with it.

What else is there to think about when participating in such a TV series that has the potential to become a classic? He is still feeling lucky that he listened to his agent's advice and came for the audition last year.

Most people have arrived, and CCTV staff explained the general follow-up procedures.

These people are all frequent guests on the show, so they were very familiar with the show and quickly mastered the process.

The studio for official recording is the same venue for regular talk shows, with a few sofas on the stage and audiences below.

The host this time was Zhu Jun, who gave the opening remarks with ease and then called out today's guests.

In order to avoid any conflicts due to the order of appearance, the order this time is mixed according to the importance of the role and the status.

The first four people to appear were Chen Linfeng, Ma Yue, Tang Guoqiang and Chen Baoguo.

The audience was very respectful and applauded enthusiastically. Except for Ma Yue, who was not very familiar, the other three were really well-known.

The four people introduced themselves according to their age.

"Hello everyone, I am Tang Guoqiang, and I play Fang Xuanling in the play Fangmou Duduan."

"Hello, audience friends, I am Chen Baoguo, and I am the remaining Du in the play, Du Ruhui."

"Hello everyone, my name is Ma Yue, and I play the role of Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, after he ascended the throne."

When it was Chen Linfeng's turn, he immediately started to sing a passage.
"Hello everyone, I'm Chen Linfeng. In the play, I play the role of General Tiance, Grand Commandant, Shangshu Ling, Shangshu Ling of the Grand Secretariat of the Eastern Shaanxi Road, Shangshu Ling of the Grand Secretariat of the Yizhou Road, Governor of Yongzhou, Governor of Puzhou, General of the Twelve Guards, Zhongshu Ling, Shangzhuguo, King of Qin, Li Shimin."

This segment left the audience dumbfounded. How could it be played like this? Since CCTV programs are rather serious, they could only applaud crazily to express their support.

The other three guests were also a little surprised. Our introductions were so conventional, but you were the only one who showed off like that. It made us feel dumbfounded.

Zhu Jun joked, "Teacher Chen, your opening remarks are a bit too much. This must have taken at least ten years of practice."

Chen Linfeng answered honestly, "Five days. That's when our production team notified me, and I started preparing."

Chen Baoguo was shocked. "Only you can do this. It would take me a long time just to memorize this paragraph of lyrics."

After this little episode, the show officially began.

Zhu Jun first introduced the recent hit TV series "The Great Tang Empire" and explained that the purpose of today's program is to invite the characters in the play to have a face-to-face chat with the audience.

The large screen behind him began to play the corresponding plot scenes.

Every time a plot node is involved, Chen Linfeng will introduce the general plot, and then the actors involved will appear.

These actors will talk about their performances in the play, as well as some interesting behind-the-scenes stories on the crew.

The story continues up to the Xuanwu Gate Incident, and all the actors involved in the entire first part have appeared.

This is equivalent to a summary, helping the audience recall past plots.

Then the program moves on to the next segment.

The actors in the second half are mainly Ma Yue, Nie Yuan, as well as actors who appear in both parts and play Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others.

There are also Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian.

Zhu Jun first asked Chen Linfeng and Ma Yue to stand together, and Liu Qianqian and Tao Huimin to stand together.

"You are paired up in pairs, each playing the same character. How do you solve the problem of the audience not adapting to the changes in the actors?"

Chen Linfeng first said, "Teacher Ma and I try to be consistent as much as possible in terms of some behaviors, manners and habits."

And he directly gave another group a reason, "I believe that Xixi and Teacher Tao also used this method, but Empress Zhangsun has always been facing Li Shimin, showing her gentleness, virtue, and deep love between husband and wife.

Now that she has to deal with a huge harem and rule the country, the changes may be even greater.”

"Okay, we understand once you say it, so can you show it live?"

Of course there is no problem with the aspects that have been discussed in advance.

Chen Linfeng and Ma Yue stood back to back and performed actions such as "sitting, standing, anger, joy, sadness, etc." as requested by the host.

Although the two people's actions are not exactly the same, it is obvious that some small habits and movements are consistent.

Next, Liu Qianqian and Tao Huimin were in a group. Their performances were slightly less coordinated, but they also showed obvious similarities.

The character movements of these two people are mainly designed based on the same character.

Chen Linfeng had helped Liu Qianqian analyze the situation before, and she obviously took it to heart. She performed well in the drama and now she has successfully brought it to life.

Not to mention Tao Huimin, the older generation of actors have a solid foundation and have done good preparation, it would be strange if they didn't have such performance.

The audience below was watching and felt it was very novel and at the same time a little amazed.

No one thinks this is a coincidence. The fact that they have so many similarities cannot be because these people are just like that. It must be the result of an intentional design to show the unity of the characters.

Is this the actor?

Horror!
