228. Chapter 228: The Limit of Growth
With the explosive growth of the popularity of "Love Apartment", a peculiar phenomenon has also appeared in the film and television sections of Pig Paradise, Douban.com, and Tianya Forum. [No pop-up novel network]
"Love Apartment", a drama starring actors under the age of 25, surpasses the popularity of Korean dramas and Taiwanese dramas that are on the file at the same time and gather countless handsome guys and beauties, and is warmly sought after by a kind of fans.
It is a hit on major TV stations, and is known as Zhao Baogang's best youth drama "Struggle" in recent years, but "Love Apartment" is far behind.
Among the most picky Douban movies, the score of "Struggle" of 7.5 is already the second highest in the history of mainland idol dramas, second only to 1998's "Carry on Love to the End".
But "Love Apartment" left these two dramas far behind, and got an unprecedented high score of 8.5.
It's not that "Struggle" is not a good shot, but that "Love Apartment" has too many characters with distinct personalities and everyone's love.
Zeng Xiaoxian, Hu Yifei, Lu Ziqiao, Chen Meijia, Lu Zhanbo, Lin Wanyu, Guan Gu Magic...... Almost none of the actors have a large number of fans.
In "Love Apartment", the supporters of various characters are posting: "I want to build a building for Sister Yifei!" If you like Sister Yifei, let's top it! β
"Build a building for my favorite goddess Wanyu~"
"Where are the brothers who like Lu Xiaobu, come and top the building post!"
This kind of building for his favorite character largely shows the popularity of the character in the minds of netizens.
In just three days, tens of thousands of people participated, Hu Yifei and Lu Ziqiao became the two favorite characters of netizens, and Zeng Xiaoxian ranked third.
But even the last place Guan Gu Magic has been topped to more than 2,000 pages of popular replies.
Comparing the popularity of the various actors in "Love Apartment", whether it is the recent popular "Struggle", or the previously popular Taiwanese dramas "Meet Love Around the Corner" and "The Star of the Sheep", the popularity of its main characters is much bleaker.
Those characters "built a building" only have a maximum of 1,000 pages of replies, which makes many fans sigh that this is really a fight between immortals and mortals......
The comments of netizen "The Winged Shell Lang" in the post bar represent most of the voices:
"I'm not so naΓ―ve as to fight for anything, but I already regard the role as my friend in my heart, look at this friend behind others, I feel uncomfortable, I must be on top to feel worthy of him!"
However, the appearance of this popular survey of building a building has also stimulated many people.
Sun Yizhou plays Lu Ziqiao, who already has nearly 5,000 floor popularity, and as Gu Xiaofan, who has the most scenes, Lou Yixiao's popularity is still hovering a little more than 3,000 pages, which really stimulates their competitiveness.
Whether it is Gu Xiaofan, Lou Yixiao, or Liu Shishi, who has no role for the time being, they are all eager to go further, and the three of them have begun to devote themselves more to their roles.
Whether it's eating, or before sleeping, or walking, they are all playing a role all the time, blending in, babbling lines, trying to develop that mysterious and mysterious personality trait.
However, the crew did not give them enough time......
With the gradual run-in of the crew of "Love Apartment", all actors have found the state of performance, and everyone has begun to show their true strength.
And every time Sun Yizhou's acting skills are fully displayed, everyone else feels great pressure.
In the case that the roles are almost the same, every actor wants to achieve the same expressiveness as Sun Yizhou.
This is not just a simple self-esteem, more for survival, in a drama, so many excellent actors of the same generation gathered, if only one person shines, then I am afraid it means that he will stand out the fastest, and others can only be reduced to foils for a long time......
Gradually, Deputy Director Lin and the Indian sister began to feel that Gu Xiaofan and the three of them were a little crazy, and the very relaxed scenes on weekdays were a little too much, and they asked for N machines many times.
Gradually, the more frustrated they become, the worse they play, and they are slowly driven into a desperate situation by the pressure they are given.........
In the afternoon, when Gu Xiaofan was also filming the scene where he confessed to Hu Yifei on the phone in episode 13, he went on the N machine more than 20 times in a row, and he was filming this scene almost the whole afternoon.
Even Zhao Wen, who was supporting the play, couldn't stop her legs just standing, let alone Gu Xiaofan, who had a long monologue.
Watching Gu Xiaofan acting emotionally side after side, it seemed that he was squeezing all his potential, and even when he was sweating profusely, he was unwilling to stop, and the Indian girl couldn't stand it, so he couldn't help but pull him aside and explained:
"Hey, you're making trouble so much that you don't want to be too demanding of yourself, do you want to go to the sky in one step? We don't have time to wait until you're satisfied! β
"I'm going to do it again......" Gu Xiaofan gritted his teeth and said resolutely.
This scene is Zeng Xiaoxian's most explosive scene, the most brilliant, but the actor in the original version played a very ordinary role, and he didn't show his emotions to the fullest, he wanted to surpass the original version, to reach the same level as Sun Yizhou, but he never grasped the trick, in the past he acted according to the original version, but this time when he wanted to surpass, there was no reference, but he lost his direction.
He was like a passenger on a boat, always being taken to one destination by an automatic boat, and suddenly, he was thrown into the water to face the vast sea by himself, although he kept struggling to swim forward, but he could never see any land, which made him fall into the confusion of not finding his way.
"Although you are a director, you are too much." The Indian girl glared at him and said, "You can't catch up with Sun Yizhou at the moment, you have to accept this fact." β
Hearing this, Gu Xiaofan looked at the people around him again, the lighting, the field staff, the radio, all of them looked at him with complicated expressions, obviously feeling very dissatisfied with him constantly filming his own scenes.
As for Lou Yixiao and Liu Shishi, they looked at him with worried faces, and their expressions seemed to be a little uneasy.
Gu Xiaofan knew that he couldn't use the director's privilege to shoot indefinitely, so he could only shake his head helplessly and said, "Take a break." β
All the crew breathed a sigh of relief at this time, everyone went to the toilet, and took the opportunity to close their eyes and rest to sleep.
Gu Xiaofan hung his head and sat on the director's chair unwillingly, he patted his head hard, trying to sober himself up......
I tried hard again and again, and rushed forward with all my might, but what about the result...... is more and more aware of his limits, no matter how he acts, he can't play better...... He can't be compared to Sun Yizhou at all......
The more dazzling Sun Yizhou is, the more small he feels......
Gu Xiaofan wanted to know what it was like to go further, but there was a bottleneck in front of him that could not be broken through.
This is the first time, Gu Xiaofan feels the limit of his performance, is this the end of himself?
