Preface: Directed by Xing Xiao, Wang Yibo , Zhang Yijie, Wang Mengli, Zhang Nan, Xiao Xu, Wang Bowen starring, Zhang Xueheng, Zhang Weiwei, Fei Long, Debo, Shi Rui co-starring the youth campus fantasy drama "My "Strange Friends" (formerly known as "Extraordinary Talents"), launched on August 19, 2020.
The play tells the story of the troubles and problems faced by a group of young people after they have superpowers, and the continuous growth and transformation in the process of overcoming difficulties and solving problems. Xing Xiao, the director and producer of the play, posted a long post on Weibo on August 21 to thank the creative team and fans. Xing Xiao said: I love and hate this drama, and I want and pity, and I have mixed feelings.
Wu Qinggong, a non-famous entertainment critic, pointed out: Xing Xiao specifically talked about Wang Yibo, revealing that the 19-year-old he had a lot of action scenes in the play, but Wang Yibo, who was already striving for perfection at the time, hoped to stick to real shooting, in order to interpret the role well, repeatedly in the container Jumping up and down, practicing fighting movements over and over again impressed the director.
Xing Xiao did not have Ai Te Wang Yibo, and Wang Yibo did not respond. It stands to reason that the director praised the actors on Weibo, and the actors should express thanks in time, but Wang Yibo remained silent. In fact, Wang Yibo has never promoted the play on Weibo. He would rather promote the movie "Yabai" which has nothing to do with him than "My Strange Friend".
searched Wang Yibo’s past Weibo, he only posted two messages about "My Strange Friend" and Xing Xiao, one was released on December 7, 2017, and the TV series started that day; the other was on January 23, 2018 Released today, Wang Yibo helped Xing Xiao to promote the movie "Heavy Snow Winter Solstice".
Therefore, Wang Yibo must be in conflict with Xing Xiao, or with the producer of "My Strange Friend", otherwise, why would he not promote the new drama he starred in? On January 1, 2016, Wang Yibo joined "Everyday Upward" as " Everyday Little Brother ", and Zhang Yijie is also one of them.
On April 29, 2016, Wang Yibo officially became the host of "Everyday Upward". On August 15, 2017, Wang Yibo, Chen Qiaoen, and Tong Da starred in the TV series " The Taste of the World Is Qinghuan " on Hunan Satellite TV. This is Wang Yibo's first TV series to meet with the audience, perhaps because of this show. Outstanding performance, Xing Xiao looked for Wang Yibo to star in "My Strange Friend".
Although Wang Yibo did not promote "My Strange Friend", Wang Yibo's fans still watch it, so that the popularity of "My Strange Friend" ranked in the top ten. Perhaps at that time Wang Yibo only got paid for acting, not for promotion; and the producer of "My Strange Friend" now refuses to pay for Wang Yibo for promotion, so Wang Yibo will not cooperate with the promotion.
Discussion: Why do you think Wang Yibo doesn’t promote "My Strange Friend"?
