The moment Su Yu received the finalized photos, her heart was filled with anticipation and curiosity.
When her gaze landed on the photos, she was deeply shocked, especially by Li Enjun’s appearance; his unique temperament and charm seemed to have stepped right out of a book, so stunning that she couldn't take her eyes off him.
Li Xunhuan’s costume, makeup, and props strictly followed the style of Director Jiao’s version, with every detail showcasing a tribute to the classic.
It’s no exaggeration to say that Li Enjun almost perfectly recreated the image of Li Xunhuan in Su Yu’s heart; his dashing posture and deep eyes all exuded the charm of a mature man.
Dressed in white like snow, he was graceful and elegant, and his curly long hair added a special charm that made him unforgettable at first sight.
Subsequently, Su Yu logged into Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng’s Tribe account and solemnly posted the second message for this account.
“The ending you desire is all in the little li flying dagger TV series; let’s warm up first, guess who he is! Picture, picture.”
He didn’t explain much, after all, the title of the last chapter clearly stated “Snake’s Tail,” so there seemed to be no need for further words.
As soon as Su Yu’s new Tribe message was posted, it was like a magical signal, and the phones of the Dao Ke simultaneously chimed with notifications.
The next moment, countless people surged into Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng’s Tribe homepage like a tide.
At this time, this Tribe account already had nearly 2 million followers.
The novel’s ending being criticized and trending today also contributed to this lively scene to some extent.
When the Dao Ke and curious netizens rushed into the Tribe account, they were immediately stunned, even feeling as if Su Yu had feigned a move.
Because what appeared before them was not the expected apology for changing the ending, but a blatant advertisement!
That’s right, recommending a new TV series, isn’t that an advertisement?
However, before they could get angry, their attention was firmly captured by the two finalized photos Su Yu had posted.
Among the two finalized photos, the first one was the most classic pose of little li flying dagger.
Li Xunhuan, dressed in white, stood sideways, his right hand elegantly placed on his chest, holding a flying dagger as thin as a cicada’s wing.
The Dao Ke who saw this scene were all stunned, not because they didn’t recognize this as Li Xunhuan’s attire, but because they truly didn’t know who the man playing Li Xunhuan was.
However, this white-clad, graceful, and mature man’s demeanor perfectly matched the Li Xunhuan in their hearts.
His curly long hair looked exceptionally unique, almost instantly etched deeply into their minds at first glance.
The second picture was a lonely and solitary scene of Li Xunhuan leaning by the window, lost in thought with a raised cup.
In the picture, Li Xunhuan’s eyes were incredibly deep, and wrinkles were clearly visible at the corners of his eyes.
This was completely different from those young idols who would use filters to erase all imperfections; what was highlighted at this moment was a kind of true charm.
“Holy cow, I checked it out, it turns out to be Li Enjun! A very popular actor ten years ago! The Royal Cat was played by him!”
With the appearance of this comment, Li Enjun’s identity was directly revealed.
“Author, you’re amazing, you actually found such a suitable actor! I’m even more excited about this drama!”
“I thought they would choose a young idol to play it, and if so, I would have dropped the show immediately. Now I’m relieved, just based on the choice of the main character, I’m definitely following this drama!”
“The charm of a middle-aged man is simply invincible! I love it, I love it.”
“@Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng, where are the finalized photos of the other characters? Post them all for us to enjoy!”
Subsequently, a crowd of people began to enthusiastically comment on Li Enjun’s appearance.
As for the possibility of the novel having a bad ending, that had long been thrown to the back of their minds.
After all, the author had already stated that the ending they wanted was in the TV series, and they would just watch it then.
Instead, being enticed by the finalized photos posted by Su Yu, they suddenly became curious about the casting of other characters.
They now approved of the choice for Li Xunhuan, but what about the other characters?
However, after seeing that she had successfully shifted the direction of the comments, Su Yu no longer paid attention.
She felt that Tianxing Entertainment would seize the momentum and follow up on the subsequent matters.
To prevent this wave of popularity from being diluted, she hadn’t even advertised her new book, which she considered quite generous.
Sure enough, after Su Yu fired the first shot with the finalized photos, Tianxing Entertainment’s official Tribe account also posted a message.
The message stated that a finalized photo of an actor would be updated every day from now on, instantly whetting the appetites of netizens and the Dao Ke.
...
Time flowed to the next day, August 10th.
Early that morning, the Shengshi Fenghua Website arranged a grand promotion for “Chu Liuxiang legend.”
And this time’s recommendation text left Su Yu quite speechless after she saw it.
Because it was just too lazy, wasn’t it? The recommendation text was actually just the first paragraph of “blood sea drifting fragrance.”
“I hear you have a beautiful white jade, exquisitely carved, of utmost charm, and I yearn for it. Tonight, at midnight, I shall come for it under the moonlight. You are always so understanding, surely you will not make my journey in vain.”
Such a recommendation text held no resistance for the Dao Ke.
Therefore, after the first 50,000 words of “blood sea drifting fragrance” went online, the Dao Ke flocked to it.
These brilliant 50,000 words were enough to make them go from not understanding to completely falling in love with this novel.
The name “Xiang Shuai” Chu Liuxiang also began to spread widely among more and more book lovers.
In fact, many book lovers originally thought that since Gu Zhou Suo Li Weng had written the characters in little li flying dagger so vividly, they would more or less see hints of Li Xunhuan in subsequent works.
However, they were clearly mistaken.
It was precisely because of the distinct identities and personalities of the two protagonists that “Chu Liuxiang legend” achieved impressive results after its launch.
In the afternoon, Su Yu received a congratulatory call from Wu Yue.
After all, the new book garnered over 500,000 collections in just half a day, a truly impressive achievement.
Wu Yue also discussed with Su Yu the publication of a physical book for “amorous swordsman ruthless sword.”
The average subscription for this book reached 240,000 on the day it concluded! It broke the record for the highest average subscription since the Shengshi Fenghua Website was founded, truly becoming the hottest bestseller.
Therefore, the matter of publishing a physical edition was also put on the agenda.
Of course, in this era, physical books had long since declined.
This time, publishing a physical book was actually to fulfill the collection wishes of some Dao Ke.
The first batch was only planned to print 50,000 copies, to be sold exclusively on the Shengshi Fenghua Website, and if the effect was good, then they would consider putting it on the market.
Su Yu naturally had no objections to this; at least she herself wanted to collect a copy, after all, this was the hunger games novel she had written since coming to Blue Star.
At 9 PM, Su Yu punctually opened the video for the sixth episode of “The King of Singers.”
At this time in Hong Kong, Chen Yixun, The King of Singers, also sat in front of his computer, watching this episode of the variety show.
Su Yu’s original words had already been conveyed to him by his agent.
This made Chen Yixun feel very helpless; his agency was indeed a bit overbearing now, and this had already begun to affect his plans to enter the mainland market.
If it weren’t for the exorbitant penalty for breach of contract, he would have long wanted to start his own business and get rid of this vampire.
