The ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ broadcast of "Cang Yue Jie" was a huge success.
Almost immediately after its release, the number of comments on "Cang Yue Jie" surged dramatically.
【Here it comes, here it comes.】
【Front row! Wishing "Cang Yue Jie" a huge success!】
【Happy first time with our little girl!】
【Four episodes in the first broadcast, impressive! Thumbs up for "Cang Yue Jie"!】
【I'm here for Brother Xiao! Looking forward to his performance in the drama!】
【A casual fan reporting in! When will the senior brother appear?】
【Chi Fei, go go go! Welcome everyone to follow Jiang Chi Fei!】
Although the drama "Cang Yue Jie" has gone through many ups and downs, just like its title suggests, and the male and female leads are now at odds due to issues with their respective companies, they have finally made it to the broadcast stage without encountering any obstacles or difficulties along the way, contrary to what many people had speculated.
Furthermore, the broadcast of "Cang Yue Jie" was surprisingly successful.
Yu Xuezheng and Le Yuanbai were already established actors and actresses in the TV drama market, and with the addition of Xiao He and Jiang Chifei, who had gained popularity among fans, "Cang Yue Jie" quickly surpassed 10,000 views as soon as it aired, generating both buzz and advertising, thus fulfilling the prerequisites for a hit drama.
Given the current challenging environment, it's rare to see such broadcast results. The last time this happened was with "Sumi" at the beginning of the year.
It was at this time that those who were watching the quality of the drama belatedly realized that Xiao He had an exceptionally good eye for choosing scripts.
Of course, the most important factor is his agent, who has a really sharp eye. The roles he selects for Xiao He are basically all effective ones. Even if the roles are small, they will definitely have the highlights and easily leave a deep impression.
For example, the younger brother in "Yu Ye", and the eldest brother in "Cang Yue Jie".
Xiao He's character, the senior brother, appears at the end of the second episode. Before that, he was always mentioned by the female lead and was the white moonlight in her heart.
Before the day of the sect's great calamity, the senior brother left the sect with his men due to a temporary mission. When Yu Yue received news of the senior brother again, it was news of his death.
Then, the sect was suddenly corrupted by demonic energy, and everyone who stayed in the sect was slaughtered by demons, and she also died a violent death.
So when the cycle came back again, Yu Yue's first thought was to keep her senior brother.
—If the senior brother had stayed in the sect on the day of the great calamity, would there still have been any hope of saving everything?
As the female lead's inner thoughts unfold, and the other members of the sect describe this senior brother, the audience's curiosity about him reaches its peak at this point.
Finally, the senior disciple, who had been leading the team on missions outside, returned to the sect.
Almost the instant she heard the news, the female protagonist rushed out of her room, then jogged across the corridor, finally encountering her senior brother approaching with his sword in hand—
According to some observant people, the barrage of comments that appeared when the senior brother appeared was even more exaggerated than all the barrage comments that appeared before him combined!
The exclamations and screams in the comments section could almost perfectly capture all the joy that filled the female lead, Yu Yue, at that moment!
【Before seeing the senior brother, I was rooting for the male lead; after seeing the senior brother, I'm just a passerby. May I ask my handsome and dignified senior brother, could you take this humble woman home?】 (21,000 likes)
【Whose white moonlight is this? Oh, it's mine! He's so handsome!】 (10,000 likes)
【Could other dramas please highlight the beauty of this "white moonlight" character? Who wouldn't be captivated by such a beauty?】 (23,000 likes)
【Ahhhh, who wouldn't be smitten if they met someone like that when they were young? If I were Yu Yue, I would save him a million times over!】 (16,000 likes)
【I didn't understand the power of the "white moonlight" before, but now I suddenly do.】
【Waaaaah, why is this senior brother portrayed so perfectly? It reminds me of when I was a kid, fighting tooth and nail with other CP fans to get the senior brother into the top spot. Too bad, waaaah...】
【My senior brother is so handsome! His aura is so dazzling it almost blinded me; I didn't even notice that this person was Xiao He.】
【Wait a minute, something seems off.】
【Is this Xiao He?】
【Holy crap, I almost forgot, this guy is Xiao He!】
【Oh no, the white moonlight has turned into the black moonlight... Hehe, that's fine too, isn't that more exciting!】
Many people were initially skeptical of Xiao He, feeling that his eyes and brows were too fierce, and that he had a natural aura of detachment and menacing when looking at people. They thought he was a natural for playing villains, and that it was unlikely he would play a truly righteous senior disciple of a sect.
It's hard to imagine what kind of impression his appearance will leave on the audience—most likely, everyone will know he's the villain as soon as he appears!
Such a face exudes authority!
And Shu Yuxiu has recently become incredibly popular, leaving behind a strong stereotype—
Then, these people were slapped in the face.
Xiao He's portrayal of the senior brother is gentle, refined, upright, and tolerant—he is simply the purest kind of senior brother in the old-school fantasy dramas!
He is both capable and patient, respectful and polite to his teachers and gentle and tolerant to his fellow disciples. The female lead hardly needs to describe her crush and admiration for her senior brother; everyone can instantly empathize with her feelings and understand her secret crush.
Because...who wouldn't like this?
As for the actor playing the senior brother, it is Xiao He.
It's Xiao He, the villain specialist who has played murderers, smugglers, and fraudsters, and who usually has a fierce look on his face.
I won't listen, I won't listen, I won't listen! Xiao He is Xiao He, and Senior Brother is Senior Brother. These two people are absolutely not the same!
So when Xiao He wasn't paying attention and checked the trending topics again, a red question mark slowly appeared above his head.
【Xiao He's kind nature can even act now!】
Xiao He: ?
What are you talking about?
Although I could roughly guess that it was just another impromptu prank by netizens, this damn hand just couldn't resist clicking to take a look.
Then Xiao He saw the comments below—
【When did Brother Xiao develop a kind personality? I didn't know that.】
【Great! Brother Xiao has completely shed his last vestige of kindness for the role! Everyone, come watch "Cang Yue Jie"! The newcomer playing the senior brother has superb acting skills!】
【As many don't know, Xiao He is Xiao He, and the senior brother is the senior brother; they have never appeared together!】
【Oh my god! I've discovered this shocking secret too!】
Wow! I noticed that too...
Xiao He: ?
What else did you discover?
What's wrong with netizens these days! Their words are so cold and disheartening!
Please don't discover this for now! Thank you!
