The premiere of "Yuya" garnered over 10,000 views, and discussions on various platforms skyrocketed that very night. It also became a trending topic on Weibo, with related topics generating over 30 million discussions. This gave Tencent a great start to the new year and is poised to become a blockbuster hit this year.
As long as this momentum can be maintained and the show continues to move forward steadily, the final broadcast results of "Sumiya" will definitely be much higher than this.
From the perspective of the plot, the early episodes mainly focused on setting the stage. Although there were some fight scenes, the anticipated return to youth storyline had not yet arrived. It wasn't until the middle of the second episode that the female lead finally shed her old body and officially embarked on the journey to find other drug users.
The plot begins here and continues to rise, with the main characters starting to assemble. The action scenes are even more exciting than the old man's initial appearance, and the combination of a cool woman and a handsome man is just as captivating as many other works of the same period, making the audience very engrossed.
Most importantly, the female lead has a very cool and decisive personality. She is vengeful and will take revenge on anyone who comes her way. Even if enemies come one after another, she will take them all down without hesitation. Even though she starts out in the body of an old woman, it doesn't affect her ability to act as an assassin for a mysterious organization that comes to capture people. She is decisive and efficient, a strong female lead completely different from the typical innocent and naive character.
Moreover, the casting this time is truly perfect for the roles. The actors playing the main characters are all the kind with a strong presence. For example, Xiao He, whose nickname "Knife Brother" in the industry is well-deserved; Yuan Sitong, as a popular young actress, already plays the leading lady in other dramas; and Li Haoxuan, a former model, needs no introduction, a top-tier runway model, whose most prominent advantage is his aura.
If these people got together, without Guo Xinya to keep things in check, I'm afraid no one could control them.
In the words of netizens, the character "Yin Lan" was truly tailor-made for Guo Xinya by the author, Jiao Dai. "Yin Lan" naturally belongs to Guo Xinya. Without Guo Xinya, they simply cannot imagine who else could portray such a character.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration.
However, Yan Shaohan directly used his main account to personally comment and liked all the comments praising Guo Xinya's casting. As a result, the trending topic "Guo Xinya's Chosen One Yin Lan" was immediately pushed to the top.
Netizens who saw this trending topic: ...
【My first thought upon seeing this trending topic: It's true, there's nothing to criticize, and it's not an exaggeration.】
【This guy, Jiao Dai, is chosen by God, isn't he the chosen one?】
【If it were anyone else, I might say a few words, I've seen this kind of marketing countless times, but this is the one thing I truly can't refute.】
【I'm so heartbroken, you old bastard, after all these years, you still love her.】
【He also got his kicks from that kid, Kakudai, making the goddess look beautiful as she went to war.】
Offline, the latest episode of "Happy Everyday" aired, and the main creative team of "Yu Ye" gathered together, bringing a lot of laughs to everyone.
Skipping the familiar opening segment, in the water splashing game, Xiao He and Guo Xinya were grouped together, while Yan Shaohan and Yuan Sitong were grouped together.
Guo Xinya and Yuan Sitong were in charge of playing the game, while Xiao He and Yan Shaohan were in charge of carrying shields and water cups.
The game is very simple: during the game, the winner splashes water on the opponent with a cup, while the loser blocks it with a shield.
This is actually a test of reaction speed.
However, when it comes to actually playing, it's full of hilarious moments.
Yan Shaohan hesitated, reluctant to splash water on Guo Xinya, while Xiao He reacted quickly, grabbing his shield to block for Guo Xinya. However, Yan Shaohan, that brat, trembled and couldn't bring himself to do it, splashing water on Xiao He's face instead.
Xiao He, his face covered in water: "..."
Looking guilty, Yan Shaohan said, "Well..."
Yuan Sitong: "Pfft—Hahaha!"
Even Guo Xinya laughed along.
Xiao He narrowed his eyes and looked at Yan Shaohan with a deep gaze: "You wait."
Yan Shaohan trembled: "You...you wouldn't do this to me, would you?"
Xiao He: "Hehe."
The next game turned into a water-splashing game between Xiao He and Yan Shaohan, with no competitive spirit whatsoever, just personal grudges.
Finally, they even switched roles with the female characters, with Yan Shaohan and Xiao He playing the game, while Guo Xinya and Yuan Sitong used shields and water cups for attack and defense.
But if we're talking about personal grudges, how could we leave out Yuan Sitong?
She couldn't be happier to have this opportunity to openly and legitimately take revenge on Yan Shaohan.
So what happened next was that Xiao He and Yan «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» Shaohan had wins and losses, but Xiao He was never splashed with water by Yuan Sitong. On the contrary, Guo Xinya hit Yan Shaohan accurately every time.
Yan Shaohan: ...
He wiped the water off his face, flashed his pearly white teeth at his goddess, and grinned foolishly: "My goddess is so quick-witted!"
When this episode aired, everyone laughed so hard they almost fell over.
【Haha, there's no emotion, just grudges. This episode is hilarious!】
【Why do I get the feeling that old scoundrel Kakuzu is having a blast being splashed by the goddess? He looks completely ecstatic.】
【Haha, that old scoundrel said: What came before the water was the fragrance from the goddess's hands.】
【I'm so amused I can't stand it anymore. Brother Xiao looks completely bewildered. What does this have to do with me?】
【And it's clear that Sitong and Jiaodai have some grudges between them; Sitong didn't even try to steal the shield, she was just gloating, hahaha.】
The creative team behind "Yu Ye" is absolutely hilarious; they're all such clowns. I've decided to watch this episode of "Happy Every Day" repeatedly.
【Perhaps it's because they're all young, but they're really hilarious. Last time, Yuan Sitong even led them to film a low-fat short video; they're all abstract artists. I suggest checking out their account; it's incredibly funny.】
【Brother Xiao, I originally thought you were a cold and serious person, but I didn't expect you to be like this...】
【Xiao Ge: ? Who gave you that illusion?】
【Hahaha......】
...
After "The Corner" aired, it was a busy promotional period.
However, there were other matters that Xiao He needed to attend to—
At that moment, Lao Qi was driving them to a hospital in Shanghai. Besides Xiao He, the other people in the car were Xiao Chen and Liu Rulan.
Xiao Chen sat in the passenger seat, turning his head to look out the window, seemingly lost in thought. Liu Rulan, on the other hand, kept her head down, dealing with matters on her phone. As if noticing Xiao He's gaze, she turned her head to look at him: "What's wrong?"
"fine."
Xiao He tapped his knee, then couldn't help but chuckle, "I just remembered that we have quite a connection with this hospital here."
They've come to this hospital countless times, either to get sick or injured, or to visit other people. It feels like they're constantly coming and going, almost becoming a refresh point for Xiao He.
Liu Rulan also thought of this, and then chuckled: "There is indeed some fate involved, but it's never anything good."
Hospitals are generally not places where good news comes from for normal people.
The vehicle had come to a slow stop, and Lao Qi turned to them and said, "We've arrived."
"Okay."
Xiao He was about to get out of the car when Liu Rulan stopped him, gesturing for Xiao Chen to get out first: "Take a few more pictures down there."
"OK."
Xiao Chen immediately got out of the car, then found a spot that wasn't too fake and took a few pictures of Xiao He.
Xiao He got out of the car after Xiao Chen finished filming.
He adjusted his mask and couldn't help but mutter to Liu Rulan, "It's just a visit to see Lu Yuxi, why do we need to spend so much time posing for photos?"
—This is so troublesome.
Liu Rulan shrugged, but before she could speak, they suddenly heard a voice coming from the parking space not far away: "Ah, right, right, this is the angle, quick, quick, take the picture! Lighting technician, move the light to the side a little, the light is a bit too obvious—hey, good, good, just like that!"
Xiao He: ...
So he's already considered one of the less flamboyant types?!
Wow, the neighbors even have lighting technicians ready!
