The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!-Chapter 569 - 568: Distance (6)
Chapter 569: Chapter 568: Distance (6)
Then the screen cut to black, the movie ended, and an advertisement popped up—it was Xia Siyu’s cosmetics commercial. That mom immediately showed a look of disdain, “This Xia Siyu, she doesn’t have any strengths, just relies on her pretty face.”
Qin Baizhou’s ears perked up at once, and so did the photographer’s beside him.
Xia Siyu, undaunted, nodded in agreement, “She does indeed have a pretty face.”
The mom seemed to have found some common ground, “Not much acting talent though.”
Xia Siyu thought for a moment, then nodded again, “Right, not much acting talent indeed.”
“She doesn’t have any notable works either, or should I say, her notable work is creating hype.”
These words were quite harsh, leaving the photographer beside speechless. Qin Baizhou’s expression also changed, and he was even about to stand up immediately.
Celebrities are usually well taken care of, surrounded by agents, assistants, and bodyguards who always pamper them. Although there are many hackers online, it’s hard to come into contact with the reality on the internet, and even if there are, it’s rare for someone to curse them to their face. And online, the brain-dead fans would also gather. It’s not just about saying bad things about their beloved celebrity, even slightly objective but not very flattering comments would provoke an automatic attack by them.
So some celebrities, with terribly poor acting skills, still have an inflated sense of self, precisely because they were brought up spoiled by agents, assistants, and fans around them.
But once you strip away that false exterior, they’re actually aware of their own limits. Especially the average people, who mostly represent the opinions of the masses, thus, their honest words can be even more hurtful.
However, Xia Siyu remained calm, “Is it because she’s involved in too many scandals?”
“Having lots of scandals isn’t really a problem, but I’ve heard she always likes to search for wealthy people.”
Xia Siyu disagreed with this one, she touched her chin and pondered, “Money is secondary, I think she’s more of a face connoisseur.”
Ugly guys are categorically turned down, and the only ex-boyfriend Bo Yan, is also a handsome guy.
“The kind that makes it to trending searches every day. Changing a hairstyle, also trending, wearing a new outfit, also trending. Every time I scroll through Weibo, it’s like she has a yearly subscription, it’s so annoying.”
Xia Siyu wasn’t angered in the slightest, instead, she turned to look at Qin Baizhou as if to give a reminder.
Being often on trending searches partly means her activities indeed have heat. On the other hand, it’s impossible that her team isn’t operating behind the scenes.
She’s a celebrity, unless she has reached an untouchable status, she still needs popularity to maintain her position and commercial value. But if she’s on the trending searches every day of the year, with a subscription that annoys both gods and humans, that’s not exactly a good thing.
She needs to undergo a transformation, as actors and influencers are different. “Influencers” in this context means needing high exposure, relying on fans to make money. But as actors, there’s a need for a certain level of mystique. If they participate in too much variety, or expose their private life too brutally, it will be hard for audiences to engage with the characters they play.
This is why Bo Yan and Shang Feifei seldom come out for promotions, and only dominate the trending searches desperately when they are on movie roadshows or participating in shows.
Xia Siyu turned her head and calmly responded, “I agree. After all, looking good can’t feed you for a lifetime, she still needs to work hard to improve her acting skills, strive to shed those impetuous emotions, and work hard to be an actor.”
Maybe because Xia Siyu spoke too earnestly, the mom also sensed something, “Are you a fan of Xia Siyu?”
Xia Siyu seriously replied, “No, actually, I’m her hacker.”
