Chapter 736: Go Back to the Past VI
Reports of the replacement of the female lead in “Women’s Talents” quickly became a hot topic. Fans of Tao Jialin were shocked and quickly besieged the official account of the crew, the Weibo account of the production company, and the director’s Weibo account.
“Are you bullying us thinking Tao Zi has no fans? The director should make this clear, why should he replace someone without any reason!”
“Who is this Wen Ying? I’ve never heard of her. Where did she come from?!”
……
The official issued a statement, stating that the casting was already in the negotiation process, the contracts had not been signed, and Tao Jialin had not been finalized to play the female lead. Now, Tao Jialin has been confirmed to play the second female lead.
Fans are doubtful. After all, Tao Jialin has been promoted as the heroine before. Even if she is not replaced midway, this is an official slip of the fans, and it is still difficult to extinguish their anger. If the novel “Women’s Talents” hadn’t been widely circulated before, they would have suspected that the directors were deliberately taking advantage of Tao Jialin’s popularity.
As a popular IP nowadays, “Women’s Talents” is not only popular as the novel itself, but its adaptation has also received widespread attention. No disturbance can escape the hunting scope of reporters.
The ambitions of investors can also be seen from the lineup of “Women’s Talents”. The director is Lin Zhiyuan, who has won numerous awards throughout his life and is internationally renowned, also known as Director Lin. Lin Yi, one of the leading actors, is his son, and his wife, Lin Yi’s mother, is an actress who has won three Best Actress Awards and has influenced a whole generation. Lin Yi inherited a quarter of his British heritage from her mother. Bloodline, fair skin, deep facial features, impeccable appearance and temperament. When he was a child, he participated in celebrity parent-child variety shows. Up to this point, he had received numerous GG and endorsement contracts, and he had an unusually high popularity.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
In addition to him, Chen Zihan and Yu Guo, who played young soldiers as the main roles, are also second-generation stars. At least one of their parents is a famous actor or star. However, the topics about them are not as popular as Lin Yi, so they are not well known outside the circle, but they all have status and resources in the circle that are difficult for ordinary people to reach.
Even Tao Jialin, the female lead initially chosen, is not as well-known as the other three, but she is still a well-known child star.Therefore, even though the cast of “Women’s Talents” temporarily changed actors, which caused dissatisfaction with Tao Jialin’s agency, the drama itself was very promising, so they were willing to let Tao Jialin take the role even if it was as the second female lead. A “wild person” like Wen Ying is likely to have unexpected situations during the filming process, and they may have planned to replace them at that time.
Tao Jialin’s replacement caused a stir among book fans and celebrity fans. Wen Ying’s background has not yet been revealed and is very mysterious to the outside world. Therefore, there are different opinions. Some accuse her of having a backer behind her, while others accuse her of being scheming and stepping on Tao Jialin to gain power on the set…… even if the target is just an underage girl, yet it can’t stop everyone’s malicious speculation.
The fights between fans of child stars are no more harmonious than those of fans of adult stars. On the contrary, child stars cannot cover themselves up and their shortcomings and loopholes are too obvious, thus attracting more arrows. Director Lin made the decision to keep Wen Ying’s background secret for this reason. Too much information would divert the media’s focus.
It’s just that because it was Tao Jialin who was chosen at the beginning, everyone had a strong first impression. Now, others will only forget the substitution episode at the beginning if Wen Ying’s excellence far exceeds Tao Jialin.
Director Lin is full of confidence in this point. For Wen Ying herself, acting itself is more important than other things.
