Chapter 202: “taiwan Entertainment” Hottie Arrives! Entire Island’s Hot Searches Crash
《Magic City Fortress》, which is publicly claimed to have an investment of over 400 million.
Actual investment 360 million （total investment including publicity and distribution）, used for building sets, special effects production, actor filming fees, etc.
Unrivaled Top Streamer Yu Yan’s first “solo” special effects blockbuster, from before filming started, aroused expectations from countless fans, even Chinese science fiction fans and bystanders——everyone had high hopes for this blockbuster.
Yu Yan himself felt the same.
Even, he believed this was his “turnaround,” the hope of returning to being the only unrivaled one.
In the 2026 Spring Festival Slot, the drama circle produced 《Xing Ni》, the film circle produced 《Nu Fa Chong Guan》, 《Bu Yu Xing Dong》.
Three top streamer young actors, Chi Ye ascended to Asian Top Streamer, Lin Yang Qianrui was promoted to “Billionaire Young Actor,” even Peng Chen relied on 《Bu Yu Xing Dong》 to leap into the Four Great Young Actors, after struggling for years, finally standing at the peak of popularity.
But in terms of true star power, after 《Nu Fa Chong Guan》, Si Zi was just like Chi Ye’s current popularity disparity leading others, Si Zi’s star power also had a disparity leading others.
The movie’s performance was so excellent, not only did the box office explode, he even got nominated for next year’s Golden Rooster Awards.
Hopes to win the Golden Rooster Movie Emperor, becoming the first, possibly also the only young actor among internal entertainment top streamer young actors to win Movie Emperor.
——Movies boost star power.
Yu Yan was full of longing for this, but he did not envy.
Because he had a Beijing Circle big production no less than Si Zi’s, and more because his current popularity although not as good as Chi Ye’s, was still an “unrivaled” top streamer, as long as it doesn’t collapse, the fan base is steady.
“Heard Chi Ye’s first movie is also getting a release date?”
He leaned back on the chair, asking his assistant.
“Seems like they also want to slot it in the summer slot.”
The assistant nodded: “The name is quite domineering, called 《Big Shot》…I asked around through connections, he came to Taiwan this time, seems like to take the chance to talk with the film producers here.”
Yu Yan was stunned: “He still wants to release here?”
The assistant nodded: “He probably wants to ride the first wave of popularity dividend after 《Xing Ni》, wants to release 《Big Shot》 in multiple Asian regions.”
“……Ha, says he’s not cutting leeks, then what is he doing?”
Yu Yan paused, evaluated: “Loading cargo.”
……
“This isn’t cutting leeks, this is called ‘cultural output’.”
Taipei airport, landed.
Chi Ye explained to the incredulous Shi Jinwei: “Poor quality is cutting leeks, good quality is benefiting the audience, different.”
“……So, you are ‘benefiting’ audiences across all of Asia?”
Chi Ye thought seriously: “If possible, I also want to benefit global audiences.”
Sister Qianzi laughed: “Then I thank you on behalf of the audiences.”
“Qianzi.”
Chi Ye looked at Shi Jinwei’s three-dimensional glamorous little face, sincerely said: “Do you know when you are the most beautiful?”
Shi Jinwei was stunned, heartbeat inexplicably quickened, frowned: “You…you you want to say what?”
“Just like this.”
Chi Ye nodded: “Keep it up, you are the most beautiful when you are stubborn.”
Shi Jinwei was furious: “Chi Ye, you…”
Before she finished speaking, suddenly deafening screams and shouts came from outside.
“Over here! Over here!!”
“Aah——Professor Chi!!”
Sister Qianzi suddenly turned her head.
Saw the airport lobby instantly drowned in screams, a dense crowd surging toward the aisle like a tide.
Fans holding light signs, banners, mobile phones squeezed impenetrably, even airport security almost got scattered.
“Make way! You guys are so annoying, I’ve waited super long just to catch a glimpse of Brother!”
A girl with a high ponytail tiptoed forward, voice sweet and urgent.
“Thick! People in front don’t block! Blocking the way is so lacking public morals!”
“Ah! The real person is a hundred times handsomer than in 《Xing Ni》! I’m fainting!”
“Professor Chi must win an award at this Golden Melody Awards! We support you!!”
“…”
Chi Ye’s expression changed, PTSD made him want to lower his head, but it was too late, because Taiwan’s fan leader obviously got intel on his not-so-secret itinerary in advance.
Chi Ye could only lift his head, giving a slight smile to the crowd.
As a result, instantly triggered an even more exaggerated round of screams.
“Aah!! He smiled at me! I’m dying!!”
“Professor Chi Golden Melody Awards rush! We will always support you, please never get off work, I want to watch you forever!”
Someone shouted in Mandarin:
“Professor Chi! Taipei welcomes you!!”
“…”
Shi Jinwei looked at this airport almost instantly blocked dead, stairs, doors, aisle, almost packed with people, her treasure blue eyes dumbfounded and stunned——《Xing Ni》 was so long ago, Chi Ye’s outside popularity is still this high?
Wait…where are my fans?
She scanned around, surprisingly didn’t spot her fans in the airport…maybe too many people, got squeezed out.
But previously in Taiwan, because of her proud figure + “self-modeling face,” she had quite a few otaku male fans, but now…
Sure enough, female fans are way crazier than male fans!
“Everyone worked hard…pay attention to safety, pay attention to safety.”
Chi Ye no longer had time to talk to Sister Qianzi, airport broadcasts kept reminding “please do not push,” but no one listened.
Flashlights and mobile phone shutter sounds flashed wildly, fans’ screams almost lifted the roof, even passing travelers couldn’t help stopping to take photos: “Wow, which big star is this? Too exaggerated!”
“……Just the first time coming.”
Behind, Yu Yan’s Team also very tightly wrapped saw this scene, silent for a few seconds, said so.
Yu Yan himself directly took off his mask——no need, anyway no one blocking him, inside and outside this airport now probably already “occupied” by Chi Ye’s Taiwan fans.
Of course…after taking off the mask, there should be some change, right?
“Oh, Yu Yan!”
Sure enough, a sharp-eyed Chi Ye fan spotted Yu Yan, pointed here and called out, then…
Then she shouted to others: “Mainland Yu Yan is here too! You guys go get his autograph quick, make way make way, I want to see Professor Chi!”
“All the scheming taken by you? Dream on!”
“Hey please! You go rush yourself! Keep squeezing me what? Can’t even see my male god’s face clearly!”
“I don’t chase Korean flow oh, now I only chase Professor Chi, only listen to Chinese Style!”
Yu Yan’s eyes visibly dejected, stared blankly for a long time, turned and walked away.
“Bro, bro, don’t rush, here are all Chi Ye fans, outside are our people!”
Team members hurried to catch up, the various “security measures” originally prepared didn’t get used.
Mm, got “intercepted” right in front by Chi Ye again.
……
In fact, Yu Yan’s popularity in Taiwan is also not low, just encountering peak period Professor Chi in person, indeed can’t compete.
And Chi Ye upon arriving in Taiwan the first moment, caused airport “congestion” “paralysis,” and packed with people phenomenon…if in Mainland, definitely would be scolded by netizens and bystanders, but in Taiwan, everyone felt instantly refreshed, a kind of unspeakable pleasure——damn Chi Ye is awesome!
Yes.
The instant Chi Ye arrived in Taiwan, hot searches and news about him had already spread inside and outside Taiwan, even to the Mainland side.
Professor Chi doesn’t join groups, but once he does, it’s a “height” other young actors can’t reach.
Weibo hot search list.
#Chi Ye Taiwan Airport Paralysis#
#Chi Ye Taiwan Popularity#
#Taiwan Entertainment “Paralysis”#
#Yu Yan Chi Ye Airport Comparison Chart#
#Yu Yan Poor Condition#
Related hot words ascended, Yu Yan’s Team as always bound with Chi Ye, meanwhile, in Taiwan, foreign TikTok and various local streaming software, news, that night Chi Ye arriving in Taiwan causing airport congestion, and various other Chi Ye news topped the front page headlines.
Among them, on foreign TikTok, Hong Kong, Macau, and other Southeast Asia region fans seeing this, wished they could fly to Taiwan immediately, leaving envious saliva.
And Taiwan local movie stars and big stars, and Heavenly Kings and Heavenly Queens of the Chinese Music Scene about to attend this Golden Melody Awards, seeing Chi Ye who dominated the lists and screens the moment he arrived, all fell silent.
Mainland…seems to have produced an extraordinary artist.
This level of redness is no less than the Hong Kong Four Great Heavenly Kings forged by the era back then…even surpassing.
Because the Four Great Heavenly Kings are four people, Chi Ye is one person.
“My nephew oh, my nephew.”
Person in Hong Kong on vacation, about to go to Mainland for publicity and distribution of 《Big Shot》’s Teacher Wu seeing this, introduced to colleague friends: “We shot a movie together, releasing this summer slot, everyone must support a lot oh.”
Everyone: “…”
“Heard you’re still the lead?”
“Hey! What lead or not.” Teacher Wu waved hand, “don’t care”: “It’s Chi Ye being polite plus script issue, his villain can’t be lead, I just picked up this bargain.”
“……Mainland has many reds, but few with this influence in other regions.”
Another friend evaluated, then probed: “You see…since you have such good relations with Chi Ye, I happen to have a few projects here…”
“…”
……
Meanwhile.
“Look, what to do.”
Golden Melody Awards organizing committee.
This year’s jury representative Teacher Chen frowned: “This commotion, this momentum…and the quality of 《Jiangnan》 and 《Blue and White Porcelain》, we not give?”
Another jury representative said: “《Blue and White Porcelain》 was stuffed into the album, originally a temporary operation, he came this time precisely to get the award, you not give…how not give?”
“But…but…sigh.”
Other judges also knit their brows in worry.
Golden Melody Awards due to various reasons indeed has regional “bias,” earlier years fine, major Heavenly Kings and Queens mostly not Mainland region artists, recent years also fine…because Chinese Music Scene looking like it’s cooling off, not to mention Mainland, they here also don’t have many who can compete.
But Chi Ye’s appearance changed all that.
Chi Ye’s fans now often say he is internal entertainment’s only triple TOP.
Namely, film, television, music.
There must be fans forcibly boasting component, because Chi Ye in the biggest “film” aspect, still has no performance.
In “television” aspect, purely by popularity and hotness, 《Circulation》 and 《Xing Ni》 are already well-deserved TOP.
But no acting awards won, the only Golden Eagle Male God is still a popularity award.
Only in “music,” Chi Ye truly achieved talent + prestige + singing skill three-in-one existence recognized inside and outside the industry.
Farther back EP 《Reboot》, whether sales or quality all crushed the previous year’s Chinese Music Scene, last year even heavier weight 《Jiangnan》.
And if 《Jiangnan》 still rode 《Xing Ni》’s popularity, then 《Blue and White Porcelain》 is the real king bomb.
Top lyric writing, top composition, top arrangement, no one dares question this song’s value in this aspect, truly excellent to the point of speechless.
Moreover Golden Melody Awards most values “singing skill,” Chi Ye on 《Singer》 stage, multiple times showed his singing skill with disparity leading internal entertainment young generation singers, is now industry-recognized technique flow （talent flow） textbook.
So, from any point, except Chi Ye Mainland singer identity, Golden Melody Awards has no reason not to give Chi Ye awards.
But…precisely this identity makes everyone hesitate.
“I think we have to give, Chinese Music Scene now has such a person, you not give, our many years remaining credibility might also drop.”
A white-haired Hong Kong composition big shot said: “《Blue and White Porcelain》’s melody is too beautiful oh, who can surpass this song?”
“……Additionally, Chi Ye is different from other artists, not only red to purple here, but also has Mainland, Hong Kong… and our side’s “background”…”
Words to here, no need to say more.
Even if fooling themselves, they can only believe it.
What’s more, Chi Ye originally is Hong Kong Circle now “force promoting” young actor, heard new movie also to be shot in Taiwan…plus opponent now not limited to Mainland, but entire “Southeast Asia”.
Then…
Seems nothing wrong.
As for you said breaking records…break then break, records aren’t they just for people to break?
Chi Ye himself didn’t expect, his first appearance in Taiwan seemed to have already achieved the “purpose”.
……
In the hotel.
Chi Ye didn’t stay in the five-star hotel arranged by Golden Melody Awards for him——because as expected, that side might already be a “sieve,” just the hidden cameras, don’t know how many.
Taiwan entertainment not like internal entertainment, here doing things more “open” and unscrupulous.
Not talking those crazy fans, who knows what absurd things Taiwan entertainment female stars can do for fame.
That night, he slept a night in the hotel arranged by the team.
But maybe because not used to the bed, woke up next day to find only 5 am.
He yawned, picked up mobile phone, first saw Sister Shang “unbanned” Moments for him, daily emo:
【Looking at falling leaves outside window, suddenly feeling life impermanent……then takeout arrived, pork ribs with rice cakes so fragrant!】
Chi Ye seeing this couldn’t help urging reply: 「Stayed up all night right? I told you to lose weight before I left, did you?」
One minute later, Moments suddenly deleted.
Chi Ye: “…”
He then as usual sent WeChat to Empress Dowager——Empress Dowager no reply, her biological clock basically healthiest, gets up exactly at 7 am every day.
Chi Ye sent a few lines about hurry give money, then stood up, walked out room door, prepared to go downstairs for breakfast, mm…
He suddenly paused, turned back, saw in next door private gym, Sister Qianzi wearing yoga clothes lifting iron.
——For “safety,” this floor hotel all booked by team, currently only two checked in, but…
He remembers last night Sister Qianzi should have gone to run Taiwan announcement, left at 1 am, now only 5 am…
Didn’t sleep?
Chi Ye dumbfounded: “Sis want to drop dead in the gym?”
