605 Another Explode in Popularity
At the end of her life, many memories flashed through Yu Xiaoyue’s mind. The time she met the stray cat under the tree, her youth when she rode a bicycle, and finally, her parents… She saw her vivid self standing in the boundless light, slowly raising her hand to salute herself. She said, “Goodbye, Yu Xiaoyue.”
Goodbye, mom and dad. Goodbye, team members… Yu Xiaoyue thought. She closed her eyes in unwillingness and relief, ending her young and brilliant life.
The accompaniment of the series was still playing, and the sad female voice was still singing. She sang so sadly, crying and complaining as if she did not want this life to leave just like that.
Viewers in front of their televisions burst into tears, some sighing subtly while some cried freely.
The forum was filled with posts of ‘Yu Xiaoyue’. While people were dissing her, they were suppressed by more and more fans who were influenced by the TV series.
“Why did Yu Xiaoyue have to die? She was still so young. I can’t accept it… Scriptwriter, you’re so cruel. You killed off such a warm person…”
“When I watched the first episode, I thought that once the undercover mission was completed, she could finally go home and reunite with her parents. Why did she have to die in the end?”
“I can’t help but cry when I think about Mrs. Yu still waiting for her daughter to come home for dinner.”
“The criminals really deserve to die. It’s not easy being an undercover cop. When will there be less evil in this world…?”
In an instant, ‘Yu xiaoyue’ was trending again. Almost everyone who had watched the movie felt sorry for the life of this young and brilliant girl. Today’s plot was the talk of the town. The moment when Yu Xiaoyue sacrificed herself after escaping danger so many times, and the parents who were still waiting for their daughter to come home was all anyone could talk about. The discussion for ‘Police Story’ kept rising, and on the day of Yu Xiaoyue’s death, the series went viral.
Before this, Song Ci, the scriptwriter, director, producer, and even Song Ci’s fans had thought that this series would have a good effect and that the character Yu Xiaoyue would help Song Ci grow her name. However, none of them had expected ‘Yu Xiaoyue’ to be so popular.
Song Ci really did not have many scenes in this movie. She was not even the main lead. However, her image was the kind that made people feel comfortable, her acting skills were good, and she completely brought the audience into it. When Yu Xiaoyue fell, Fu Qinqin’s heart-striking voice embellished the audience’s sorrow, making it even more difficult for viewers to calm down. As a result, ‘Yu Xiaoyue’ became the biggest keyword in ‘Police Story’.
Song Ci’s fan base also increased due to the character of Yu Xiaoyue. She completely surpassed other actresses of the same age as her popularity soared.
Song Ci’s career had now risen drastically and was starting to affect the interests of more people. Her haters could not sit still, especially those who had a similar development to Song Ci. However, the actress who rejected the role of ‘Yu Xiaoyue’ was the angriest. All of a sudden, various marketing accounts appeared to stir up trouble.
“I just received a small piece of news. The reason why the currently popular Song Ci played this completely different role was that she knew this role would be a hit. That was why she snatched it from an actress who had already signed a contract. That actress had no connections or background, and her chance was cut off just like that. I can only say that this world doesn’t give new actors a chance at all. Only people with connections can get ahead. So how are ordinary people who want to pursue their dreams supposed to live?”
As more and more people reposted this revelation, more and more people joined in to give their two cents.
“Song Ci snatched the role from a newcomer? Why don’t I believe it? What would she even be after? She was already very popular before she started filming ‘Police Story’. She didn’t have to worry about acting.”
“Are you blind? The exposé was very clear. Song Ci knew that this show would be a hit. Of course, she had to snatch it. Tsk, tsk. It seems that Song Ci’s connections are not simple. I wonder what a woman had to do to get to where she is today…”
