"Xing Lan" has received unanimous praise after its release. The actors' acting skills are on par, and a great amount of money is spent on the special effects. Although there is still a gap compared with the top foreign productions, it has already taken the lead in China.
With the full launch of the movie, more and more movie critics of "Xing Lan" are being written, and a number of them have expressed their views on Zhang Chao's casting.
"The choice of actors in "Xing Lan" can be said to be very bold. In addition to Yu Bai, several important actors have chosen fledgling newcomers.
We can see that Yu Bai's acting skill is without a doubt as good as always, the title of Best Actor is worthy of the name, and the other two newcomers are not to be outdone, and their performance in the movie is brilliant.
As Hui Hong Sheng's son, Hui Si Yong received professional guidance from an early age, but from his performance in "Xing Lan", it can be seen that he must have worked hard for every scene.
In addition to the teaching of Hui Hong Sheng, Hui Si Yong's own talent and acquired efforts cannot be ignored. Although it is the second generation of stars, he did not slack off. In the future, he will surpass his father's name, and rely on his own efforts to make a name for himself.
What surprised me the most in the whole movie is another newcomer, Sheng Xing Ze. Judging from his previous roles, he is just an empty vase.
Before the release of "Xing Lan", like many others, I was very dissatisfied with him. After all, based on Sheng Xing Ze's previous acting skill, he might not be able to take on Su Jin Mu's role, which requires an actor's aura besides his face.
Surprisingly, Sheng Xing Ze not only delivered the role, but also did a good job. Sheng Xing Ze very well showed Su Jin Mu's feeling of being a teenager, but growing up in an instant.
While watching the movie, I was shocked by his acting skills, especially the close-up shots arranged for him by Director Zhang Chao. This is an actor with talking eyes. In time, I believe that Sheng Xing Ze's name will appear at the top of the film industry.''
If only one movie critic praised Sheng Xing Ze's acting skill, it would not be enough to get him out of the title of an empty walking vase. However, now every movie critic that praised Sheng Xing Ze would also mention that Sheng Xing Ze's performance is so perfect that they cannot find flaws in his skill.
All the people who satirized Zhang Chao and Yu Shuang Yang for having bad taste in picking their actors were being slapped in the face by Sheng Xing Ze's acting skill and sullenly behaved with their tails tugging behind them.
With the rise in the popularity of "Xing Lan", Sheng Xing Ze's fans grew rapidly at a speed of light, jumping from an 18th-line newcomer to the top tier.
Apparently, a lot of anti-fans also turned into fans as well.
Xiang Si Si is an ordinary college student. She is not fond of Sheng Xing Ze. She only gets to know about him through the photos. When it comes to Sheng Xing Ze's play, she starts to hesitate.
On the day of the release of "Xing Lan", she was reluctantly being dragged to the cinemar by her best friend.
"Isn't this Sheng Xing Ze just a walking vase? You are still so excited." Xiang Si Si looked at her best friend stomping with excitement in confusion.
The best friend knocked on Xiang Si Si's head, "I read the reviews online saying that his acting skill is very good." She pulled up a Weibo post to show Xiang Si Si.
"And even if Sheng Xing Ze is a walking vase, I actually come here to see Yu bai, and everyone else is just extras around him," the best friend is Yu Bai's diehard fan. As long as it is Yu Bai's movie, she would come to watch it twice.
Xiang Si Si disagreed but she just shrugged and ended the topic.
When they walked into the theater, there were two girls who just walked out of the same theater room. They went to the ticket machine to buy tickets for the next show time, but the tickets for "Xing Lan" had been sold out.
"Even the day after tomorrow is gone, is the day after tomorrow okay? I haven't had enough of watching Su Jin Mu, yet the screenwrite had to kill him."
"I really want to chop the screenwriter into pieces. Why must Ah Mu have to die?"
The girl next to her responded with an angry look.
Listening to them, Xiang Si Si could not help but start to be a little curious about what kind of character it is that makes the person who just saw it wants to watch it again.
At this time, the best friend held up their tickets and walked over, and the two of them checked in together.
Xiang Si Si told her best friend the conversation that she had just overheard. The best friend cringed her nose, "I definitely won't. My second time watching it is definitely for Yu Bai."
Speaking of Yu Bai, her best friend's expression immediately changed, and she started to go full fangirl mode toward Xiang Si Si.
"I'm telling you, after watching Yu Bai's movie, you will fall in love with him. How could there be such a perfect man, handsome, good-looking, great acting skill, and still a wealthy man." The best friend's face was full of pride and smiled brilliantly like someone under an enchanted spell.
Xiang Si Si did not say a word about this, and smiled silently at her best friend's reaction.
The lights in the theater dimmed and the movie officially began.
At the beginning, it was a background introduction. Xiang Si Si nodded, the special effects are indeed very good.
A clear voice rang out, calling "Master" with joy.
The face of a teenager appeared on teh big screen in front of her. He seemed to have noticed something and turned his head to smile.
The moment she saw him smiling at the camera, Xiang Si Si felt as if she had been shot by Cupid's arrow. She seemed to suddenly understand what it felt like for her best friend wanting to lick the screen on the cell phone every day.
When she saw that Su Jin Mu was willing to give up his young life in order to save Bai Xing Lan, Xiang Si Si's face became wet unknowingly, and the best friend next to her handed her a piece of tissue, and Xiang Si Si took it and quietly wiped away the tears.
She thought, I must look very ugly now.
Xiang Si Si turned her head and saw that the face of her best friend next to her was shining up, the delicate eye makeup had already been smudged by the tears, and her mouth was holding back the tears.
Xiang Si Si did not pay much attention to what the movie is showing after that. Her mind was full of the teenager who was lying in front of the master's bed and leaving the world with a smile.
When the movie was over and the lights in the theater were turned on again, Xiang Si Si looked at her best friend besides her and asked for the first time, "Want to watch it again?"
The best friend nodded desperately, clutching the tissue to blow her nose in.
"Si Si, for the first time I feel that Yu Bai is not a good person, but I still like him. But to satisfy my guilt, I unilaterally declare that I am Sheng Xing Ze's motherly fan."
She looked at Xiang Si Si, waiting for her to launch a mocking attack on her as usual.
Xiang Si Si uncomfortably avoided her best friend's eyes, "I suddenly had the urge to become a fangirl, for Sheng Xing Ze..."
"My sister!" The best friend hugged Xiang Si Si tightly, "From now on we will be the sisters on the same front."
The janitor aunties came in to clean, and when they urged them to leave, the two girls reluctantly left the theater.
Sitting in the waiting area outside, Xiang Si Si opened the theater app to search for movie tickets, "the tickets are all sold out. Before we went in, someone said that there are still tickets for the day after tomorrow."
Xiang Si Si was amazed when she stared at the red sold out letters on the showtime list.
"There must be a lot of people who want to go in to watch a second time," the best friend was more experienced, but she was also surprised.
Xiang Si Si vowed, "I'll see it tomorrow, I absolutely want to do it twice."
There are still many passers-by like Xiang Si Si. Sheng Xing Ze's motherly fans grow in an instant, and they all call him "my child" in his Weibo every day.
Sheng Xing Ze complained about this to Yu Bai.
Sheng Xing Ze made a grimace at the camera, "Why do your fans call you their husband every day, but my fans call me their son every day?"
"You are a baby in their hearts." Yu Bai smiled at the other man's expression.
"I'm not a kid anymore, they actually tell me to drink milk all day long," Sheng Xing Ze's words sounded like showing off.
"Motherly fans are quite good, when we decide to come out to the public, you won't lose too many fans." Yu Bai said.
"Film Emperor Yu wants to come out with me?" Sheng Xing Ze smiled.
"I do."
Sheng Xing Ze looked at Yu Bai's serious face in the phone, and made a decision, "Yu Bai, wait until I get the Best Actor title, I'll come out with you."
