The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!-Chapter 1731 - 1723: Box Office (5)

On the second day of the new year at midnight, the comedy film ranked first, with a box office taking of five billion, including presales. While the box office is exploding, the reviews are quite decent. Although it lacks depth and the story is relatively simple, it’s the New Year, after all—it’s about having fun, and there’s nothing particularly brainless about it, so the reviews are pretty good.

"Divine Catcher" follows closely with a box office of two billion. Although this kind of ancient, fantasy, martial arts, detective films feels a bit dated in terms of genre, Xia Siyu is just too beautiful! 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Honestly, everyone who has watched the film can only remember Xia Siyu in her short, tight-fitting flying fish suit. She had never acted in a costume drama before; she started her career with youth campus dramas and urban romance films. Her glamorous outfits in "Storm" were already a breakthrough, but this time playing a heroine, she looked really spirited.

Especially since many actresses who play heroines just force themselves into a style, puffing out their chests and thinking they look handsome in any random male outfit. But Xia Siyu looked genuinely makeup-free in the film. Even if she wore makeup, it was very simple. Director Ji wanted to capture the person’s demeanor in that situation, so he deliberately asked her not to focus on her appearance for the role. To portray the character well, she specifically bound her chest, and the makeup artist slightly refined her features to highlight her sharpness. The martial arts were also intense; she practiced dance and boxing, standing with a straight posture. At that time, she hadn’t even lost weight, so she looked powerful, like she could really take on ten people at once.

Many guys left comments after watching: "I can really look at her face, but looking at her fists: one punch, and she could make me cry for a long time."

Xia Siyu used to be the pure beauty type, then she played a seductive boss last time, but this time she acted so handsome. Plus, she’s not short, with a solid 1.68 meters height, and when she wears shoes, she’s almost as tall as many of her male co-stars. Since the second female lead is much shorter than her, standing with her, there’s one handsome and one beautiful, and a bunch of female audiences excitedly scream "husband."

Many even sighed: "Sister, you’re so handsome in the show, but your eyes are a bit lacking. What’s so good about the male lead that you’d give your heart completely for him? Isn’t the second male lead fragrant? The second female lead likes you too, isn’t a yuri relationship fine?"

Nowadays, the wealth code seems to be men acting in boys’ love and women acting in yuri. Of course, the boys’ love can’t be real; many can’t accept genuine homosexual films and television. The yuri also can’t be real; it just needs this aura of women helping women to gain more attention.

Xia Siyu really did not expect that just a day ago, her comment section was still clamoring for Shengxiaiyan and Bo Yan to alternately give out tickets. A day later, a group of female fans rushed in, frantically spamming her pictures calling "husband."

She really had very few female fans. First, her beauty is too aggressive, and in the market, the strongest affinity is with cute baby faces. Her looks are undeniably high, but because they are too high, it easily creates distance. Men can’t help but fantasize, while women think this look resembles a fox spirit. Second, her various negative reports and rumors over the years. A bit of gossip is fine, but reports of swearing, hitting people, being a diva, and even later "taking sides incidents," drove female fans away.

Every time she appeared in a film, she was either a naive sweet girl or a seductive boss, which had some audience, but clearly not a wide one.

But this time... because of playing a handsome divine catcher, a group of female audiences instantly rushed in yelling, "Turn me bent!"

The yuri circle is interesting; it seems to have a high level of sophistication. Over the years, many actresses and singers have tried to draw in fans by adopting the persona of "yuri boss," posing in male outfits and calling themselves the fans’ "husband." But the more they try to push the persona, the more they get mocked. What this circle avoids the most is straight women selling yuri, focusing instead on a sensation, an independent, innate, slightly tomboyish vibe.

Shang Feifei once tried to win over female fans, wearing male outfits for several magazine covers. But her innate cool aura didn’t blend well with her attire, always looking a bit fake. After a few attempts with mediocre results, she stopped trying.

Unexpectedly, Xia Siyu actually succeeded.

On the second day of the new year, Xia Siyu was originally supposed to record a variety show with Bo Yan. After recording, she received a message from a partner, asking her to dress a bit more "neutral" for the next show. Afterwards, she received another variety show invitation, a temporary recording for a New Year movie special, inviting both the "Divine Catcher" crew and the highest-grossing comedy film crew to participate together.

Bewildered, Xia Siyu and Bo Yan finished recording the variety show and immediately flew out of town to participate in the special program’s recording. Then, more commercial invitations came, specifically asking her to wear male outfits, both ancient and modern.

She’s currently short of money, so of course, she agreed to the offers to earn some. Maybe her fan club posted her schedule, or maybe it’s the holiday and everyone is idle at home. On the fifth day of the new year, when she went to shoot a commercial, as soon as she got off the plane, countless fans surged at the airport.

Her first reaction was to look around, wondering if there were other celebrities nearby. Because those fans were desperately shouting "Husband, look at me!" "Husband, I’m here!"

When she finally looked closely at the signs they were holding, some said "Si," and others held up "Yu," she realized that these people were actually her fans.

How to say it, ever since she first hit rock bottom, Xia Siyu abandoned her previous pure goddess path, and Qin Baizhou crafted her persona to be the most domineering, straightforward, and unreasonable.
