Top Star: Journey To Become A Global Star 248 Chapter 248. Character Photos 2

Chapter 248. Character photos (2)

As soon as the character photos were revealed on the internet, it didn't take it long to reach the top place in the real-time search rankings.

With the backing of a heavenly king, Ren and the other first tier actors, the drama «Slayers» was trending on every SNS site. 

People can't help but talk about it.

The most talked about person was obviously Hou Qian. It was his comeback drama and his character poster was already going viral.

This was the popularity of the heavenly king.

Even small things about the heavenly kings and queens would become big and for them, trending on social media was nothing major.

The next most talked about person after Hou Qian was the queen of hit dramas, Tang Lan.

She was already being talked about a lot during the Golden dragon movie awards but she unfortunately lost to Xiao Rin.

But now, she has again become a topic of discussion because of «Slayers». There was also another reason behind this.

It was because in ancient dramas, female characters would often be shown as just love interest or damsel in distress. 

It was because women empowerment hadn't taken place in the ancient times and women were considered to be weak and delicate.

Tang Lan's character wasn't like that at all.

She was playing the character of a princess but there was more to her. Just the t.i.tle of the 'spirit princess' was enough for people to gush at her.

There were also rumours about how she would be a strong character, unlike the stereotype.

The next most talked person after Tang Lan was obviously Ren, who was an unexpected face in the drama.

People were not expecting him to act in an ancient drama for his next project. It was a change considering his filmography till now.

It was a change but it was a good change.

People were actually excited to see Ren in «Slayers». His character photos were already forwarded more than a million times. 

His fans can't stop taking a look at his character photo, especially because it was the first time Ren had applied so much makeup and he was looking really handsome in it.

His female fans were already dying over it.

There was also another thing. It was the mysteriousness of his character.

It hadn't been revealed what type of character Ren was playing in the drama. 

The male lead was Hou Qian and the second male lead was Na Wen. The third male lead was a newbie actor with a big agency behind him.

So, people were wondering what is the importance of Ren's character in the drama. How much screen time he will get and other things. 

Many people were even suspecting that Ren was playing a guest role in the drama and his character poster was revealed just for publicity.

People can't stop talking about him, either because of curiosity or his character photo.

-I can't believe Xin Ren is going to share screen with Hou Qian. It would be epic!! 

-I am not sure of that. He is not the second male lead or even the third. 

-Yes, it can just be a guest role.

-Yup, Wheel works production just wants more media attraction and publicity and what's better than a.s.sociating Xin Ren's name with their drama.

-You can be wrong too. 

-Yes, the character looks mysterious. 'The illegitimate wastrel', just the name sounds like he's hiding something. 

-Xin Ren will be one of those hidden bosses in the drama. 

-I don't care about all of this. Just the poster is enough for me to drool at him!!

-Yes, he's so handsome. I wish he play a bada.s.s character like Jay from «Secret spy»

-Yeah, a character like him. Seen as the wastrel but he's actually hiding his powers.

-I don't know why but now, I want to watch the drama just to know what kind of character Xin Ren will play.

-Ah, yes, me too!!

-The drama would surely be epic!!

"The response of the character photos can't get better than this."

"Yes, people are already claiming that «Slayers» will break all records."

Two employees were talking about «Slayers» and Ren sitting in the cafeteria. One of them was a member of the PR Team and the other was a manager.

"It was a highly antic.i.p.ated project from the start with Hou Qian and Tang Lan in it. Xin Ren just adds the sense of mystery in it."

The manager said as he gulped down the soup.

"Yes, but that sense of mysteriousness is making more people curious about him."

"The PR Team must be giving their all in promoting him."

The manager raised his eyebrow and asked. As he was a newly recruited manager, he was trying to gain some better insight on the working of the PR Team.

But the PR Team employee shook his head.

"We had already sent some press releases but the media is still pestering us. We are dealing with them but our main focus is different currently."

"What's that?"

The manager asked with a curious expression.

He wondered what can be more important than promoting one of the stars of Top star entertainment.

"It's Xiao Rin."

"Ohh!!"

The manager immediately understood what the PR Team employee was talking about.

Xiao Rin had just won the best actress award in the Golden dragon movie awards. She is even the youngest actress to win it.

There can't be a better time than to promote her.

"We have earlier made a yearly schedule for her. It would have made her a first tier actress in just a year but things changed because of the award."

"She got elevated to a first tier actress because of the award."

Normally, one has to act in several movies and dramas, gain some major popularity and then, one will be treated as a first tier actress or actor. 

But there are variables.

Ren is one of them. No actor had back to back major hit dramas and movies.

The other person was obviously Xiao Rin. She started as a supporting character and then, she quickly garnered applause for her role in «A born star».

She even won the Golden dragon movie award for it. That award helped her get into the first tier celebrity list.

Now, Top star entertainment was trying to use the momentum to push her more. It was a common tactic among entertainment agencies.

They will try to use everything to make someone a celebrity and then, they will try to make that celebrity more famous.

It was because the more famous a celebrity is, the more money the agency will earn.

"Xiao Rin is currently in the CEO's office with Director Zhao and Director Kang. They are talking about her new schedule."

"That kid must be scared."

The manager can't even think about standing in the CEO's office. He began to sweat just thinking about it.

"No, she's not the type of person who will be scared of things. Moreover, she's really ambitious."

"She is?"

"Yes, ambition is one of the factors behind a celebrity's growth."

The manager nodded his head while thinking about the actor a.s.signed to him. For some reason, he knew that his coming days as a manager would be tough.
