Huayu started from the Three Kingdoms period

Chapter 72: Jumped from the 3rd floor

After receiving Jing Tian's message, Yang Siwei, who was far away in the capital, began to notify the public relations department to handle the situation.

Since major celebrities joined Weibo, the center of entertainment news has actually shifted to Weibo.

Nowadays, the general public no longer goes to various gossip platforms to follow the latest gossip, but instead gathers under Weibo, a platform launched by Sina.

Weibo has over 20 million registered users, and that number continues to grow.

The number of fans of major celebrities is growing rapidly. Yang Mi's fans have exceeded one million, He Jiong's fans have three million, Yao Chen's fans have three million, and Andy Lau's fans have two million, etc.

Yao Chen has also earned the title of "Weibo Queen," and she is currently enjoying immense popularity.

Yang Siwei had long recognized the potential of this platform. Due to the popularity of Weibo, a new term, "water army," emerged, referring to those who post fake reviews and promote others online.

Last year, online marketing companies had already emerged. While other brokerage firms were still observing, Yang Siwei had already cultivated a large number of online marketing personnel.

In her opinion, online trolls are a really good thing; they are very useful tools, whether for marketing or for controlling online comments.

For example, right now, Weibo has a one-hour trending topics list, and Xu Ying's name appears on it from time to time, associated with Yu Xiaoqing and Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie.

When "New Three Kingdoms" first aired, it received a flood of negative reviews. Yang Siwei didn't expect Xu Ying to have any influence through this drama; he just wanted to avoid being criticized.

But Xu Yingzhen gave him a big surprise. With the second broadcast of "My Chief and My Regiment", not only did Yu Xiaoqing become popular, but this minor supporting character in "New Three Kingdoms" also became popular.

With double happiness on his mind, Yang Siwei naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass him by.

Yang Siwei is actively marketing. Now, in addition to Weibo, a large number of posts and replies about Xu Ying have appeared on various platforms such as Tieba, Tianya, and Mop.

Under her arrangement, Xu Ying herself also gave some interviews, which have now been released.

People really noticed this handsome male actor born in the 06s, a senior student in the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, class of 85.

Yang Siwei's appeal lies firstly in his "handsome" appearance, secondly in his status as a talented young actor born in the 85s, and thirdly in his ability to generate buzz and cultivate a persona.

Of course, the main reason is that Xu Ying himself is very capable; otherwise, no amount of hype would have helped.

Xu Ying's Weibo account is now managed by her, where she posts photos of her daily life, workouts, and stills from her dramas.

Of course, the most important thing is his good looks. In Jing Tian's words, her senior brother's good looks are a lifelong thing.

Xu Ying expressed his agreement with this statement, even strongly agreeing with it.

Xu Ying's Weibo followers are growing rapidly.

......

Filming of the operation to annihilate Yuanshan Town is nearing its end, but the rainy season in Yunnan Province has arrived earlier than expected.

The outdoor shooting, originally planned for three days, was delayed due to a sudden downpour.

Fortunately, there aren't many scenes left. The filming progress in the military camp was fast, and the current stoppage won't affect the filming schedule.

In his hotel room, Zhu Yilong sat cross-legged on the bed scrolling through Weibo when he suddenly burst out laughing.

"Old Xu, your follower count has increased quite a bit, you've already surpassed 200,000." He turned his phone screen towards Xu Ying, "The comments section is full of people praising Emperor Xian of Han."

It can be said that Yang Siwei is responsible for these 200,000 followers.

Xu Ying glanced at it; the latest Weibo post was a behind-the-scenes clip from the Yunnan film set that he had posted the day before yesterday.

In the photo, he is wearing a special forces combat uniform, his face is painted, and he is making a "V" sign at the camera.

The caption reads: "Yuanshan Town, nearing its finale."

The number of comments has exceeded 10,000.

"The division commander looks so handsome even in a modern military uniform! He's the epitome of Yu Xiaoqing!"

"Xu Ying's acting skills are truly superb. From Yu Xiaoqing to Emperor Xian of Han, he is completely unrecognizable as the same person."

"Looking forward to 'I Am a Special Forces Soldier'! When will it air?"

"Am I the only one who noticed that Zhu Yilong peeking out in the background? His expression is so silly, hahaha."

Zhu Yilong leaned over to read the comments, and upon seeing one, immediately exclaimed, "Who's naive? That's called being simple and honest!"

The rain stopped the next day. Once the rain stopped in Yunnan Province, the sun came out and the weather improved. We were all looking forward to starting filming the final scenes the next day.

Everyone was playing games in the room.

Just then, cries for help came from downstairs. Upon hearing this, Xu Ying quickly went to the window.

"Help! Help!" Liu Meng's voice came from outside, filled with panic. "A gentleman uses words, not fists! What are you trying to do!"

Three cars were parked outside the hotel, and more than a dozen people surrounded Liu Meng.

"Damn it, Director Liu is trapped! Brothers, get downstairs, quick!" Zhu Yilong shouted as he ran out the door.

The actors in the other rooms heard Zhu Yilong's shout and opened their doors to go downstairs.

Xu Ying had already taken the lead, but there were two people who were even faster than him. These two were real special forces soldiers hired by the production team.

Seeing that Liu Meng was being cornered, the thugs were ready to make their move.

They exchanged a glance, then flipped over and jumped from the third floor, rolling upon landing to absorb the impact.

Xu Ying's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he simply followed them down.

The three men appeared as if they were gods descending to earth, and the thugs were all stunned by the sight.

"Holy crap, a soldier?" one of the thugs exclaimed in surprise.

Yes, Xu Ying and the others were all wearing military uniforms. They wore these clothes almost the entire time during filming, except when filming dialogue scenes.

"Holy crap, Old Xu jumped off the third floor."

The crowd that arrived later looked at Xu Ying as if he were a monster. They knew the strength of the two special forces soldiers, but they didn't expect Xu Ying to be so awesome.

The special forces soldier looked at Xu Ying with admiration in his eyes; he was a real man.

In an emergency, for an ordinary person to be so helpful is truly commendable.

Liu Meng had already emerged from the crowd, pulled out his phone, and started calling the police.

Seeing this, Xu Ying led the others to rush towards the thugs, and the actors roared and charged forward.

In no time, the terrified thugs were all subdued.

At this moment, the police arrived, and Liu Meng went up to negotiate.

"Excuse me, comrade." The police inspector in charge of the team saw so many soldiers in front of him. He knew that the film crew was shooting here, but he couldn't tell who the actors were at all.

"Thank you for your hard work. I'll have to trouble you to take them away." Liu Meng grasped the police inspector's hands. "It's a good thing they're here, otherwise I would have been in big trouble, haha."

After the thugs were taken away, Liu Meng walked up to the group.

"Thank you everyone, I'm so glad I had you all."

"Director, you're too kind. This is what we should do."

"Exactly, if it weren't for Lao Pao holding me back, I would have made them suffer."

"Come on, you went up there and punched someone in the head. If you really hurt them and caused any problems, it won't be easy to handle."

"Hahaha."

"Old Xu is still the best, he jumped straight from the third floor."

"This guy is a monster, and he's young too. We can't compare to him."
