Michelle Chen has been in a lot of news recently. First, it was rumored that her marriage had changed in June, and then a new drama was launched. Recently, when she was on the variety show "Taohuawu", Song Dandan asked her husband where he was from. She only replied that he was "from Anhui", but Wang Chuanjun next to him reminded him that it was Chen Xiao.
Today, Yu Zheng broke the news on live broadcast that Xiao Longnu in his version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" originally wanted to find a baby, but later she was replaced by Michelle Chen because the baby was unavailable.
Yu Zheng’s "Little Dragon Girl" meme has been mentioned once before. At that time, the baby participated in a variety show and cosplayed the look of Little Dragon Girl. Yu Zheng posted on Weibo saying that it was his regret that the baby did not appear in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Later, it was discovered that in 2014, Yu Zheng posted a photo with Chen Yanxi, with the caption "It is always a choice without regrets."
Yu Zheng will never let go of any available traffic, and even him starting to talk about it again undoubtedly only shows one thing - Chen Yanxi's exposure has increased. Considering the intensity of her news exposure in the past few years, the most direct explanation is: Michelle Chen is ready to pursue a career.
Chen Yanxi is 41 years old this year. After getting married, the focus of her life has been on her family. There is still development in the entertainment industry, but she is very Buddhist and there is not much publicity. Although personal stardom is a metaphysics, and many people become famous again after entering middle age, judging from the development of the past few years, Michelle Chen has indeed wasted several years.
The waste I am talking about here is not that she has no job, but that her personal promotion is almost invisible.
The entertainment industry is a place where being ignored is more cruel than being scolded. What's more, Michelle Chen is not an actress with absolute advantages. She is very "replaceable" and will be quickly forgotten by the audience if she is not exposed.
Several Taiwanese actresses of the same age group as her, not counting those who became famous early, such as Ariel Ariel and Rainie Yang, are all working hard. Janine Chang has been working hard in the Mainland, starring in online dramas such as "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" and "Detective Chinatown". Although it is not a big hit, it has caught the attention of the audience. In the past two years, it has also begun to enter the big screen, and its works are hot topics. Sexually, the exposure is very stable.
Chen Yihan has accumulated a group of fans through variety shows early on. Her greatest luck was to participate in the classic variety show "Hua Shao 2", which retained her continued discussion. Although there were some controversies later on, getting married and having children did not affect her ability to continue her career. This year, she was able to gain a sense of presence with "Flower Young Master" - a job that brought in huge profits.
Compared with them, Chen Yanxi is too quiet.
It’s not like she doesn’t have content to promote. Yu Zheng was able to talk about Xiao Longnu’s desire to find a baby and said that it would be easy for her as the person involved to receive this wave of traffic. But Michelle Chen didn't seem to want to do this. She later participated in the popular variety show "Sister Lang" and didn't use this topic for marketing.
It's understandable. She was scolded a lot when she acted in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Black pictures and funny pictures are everywhere - Chen Yanxi wants to respond, and Yu Zheng also wants to respond to the styling controversy:
At that time, the media could hold the microphone in front of celebrities and make fun of them, but she had to answer over and over again when netizens called her "Xiao Long Bao" and have a good attitude, otherwise you are likely to suffer another round of attacks.
This experience is probably the memory in life that she wants to erase the most. I once suspected that Chen Yanxi liked Chen Xiao because he could support her during the period of Little Dragon Girl. Later, Michelle Chen chose to get married soon and put most of her energy into her family. I wonder if part of the reason was to avoid the pain caused by public opinion in the entertainment industry.
Chen Yanxi and Chen Xiao are really sweet. When they were good, it was the time when domestic entertainment paparazzi were "potential", and many details of their lives were exposed.Their sweetness is actually very everyday. I think the sweetest thing is not the "wedding kiss" at the wedding, but the two of them going back to Chen Xiao's hometown to worship their ancestors, holding hands every step of the way.
When Chen Yanxi was on "Sister Lang", she also shared some things about Chen Xiao and herself when they were passionately in love. It can be seen that they were really in love at that time. This kind of determination should be very important to Chen Yanxi.
In fact, because of the scandal between Chen Xiao and Zhao Liying, Chen Yanxi was said to be a "third party" who had intervened. Not everyone was optimistic about their marriage, but even so, it is still the consensus of netizens that Chen Xiao and Chen Yanxi are very much in love. Therefore, in the past two years, there have been frequent reports of marriage changes between the two, and everyone thinks it is true, because if there was no real conflict, it would be difficult for the two to be exposed to public scrutiny based on their "love" back then.
Although it is unknown whether Michelle Chen and Chen Xiao are married, her status in variety shows in the past two years is still very different from that of most "divorced actresses".
In the past two years, the heroine role has become popular among divorced actresses. Only in the variety show "Lang Jie", Zhang Jiani and Wu Qian have intentionally or unintentionally created this kind of role. Baby has also created a similar image, of course, most of it can be seen from the words of fans - her sister became more beautiful after the divorce, gave up the fantasy of marriage and returned to the peak of beauty.
It’s not that there is anything wrong with this image. Counterattack is the most popular scene among the public. The abandonment of the scumbag and his rebirth has become one of the most popular scenes since “The Temptation of Going Home”. one.
If Chen Yanxi also wants to take this heroine route, it would be very convenient. The heroine of a popular drama, the object of ridicule by Internet bullies, she focused on her family after getting married, but now it is rumored that her marriage has changed, and she started the second half of her life on the show...
In fact, Michelle Chen has some black and red physique on her body, and I am not talking about "Little Dragon" "Female" role, but the person Chen Yanxi. The scandal related to her was not only Chen Xiao, but it was also rumored back then, which made many people feel that Chen Yanxi's love life was not simple.
Later, it was reported that Chen Yanxi and Chen Xiao were in marital crisis, and the gossip became even more. Many people on the Internet said that Chen Xiao's eyes were darkened, and Chen Yanxi also responded to this matter.
If Chen Yanxi took the route of gorgeous transformation, it would be very reasonable, but she did not take this route.
At present, the most likely route for Michelle Chen is to film movies and participate in lifestyle variety shows to regain her popularity, because she really has no advantage in variety shows like "Sister Lang" where topical stars gather together, and her appearance is not glamorous. I think It is impossible to counterattack with style. Several of "Sister Lang's" heavy makeup styles are not as good-looking as daily makeup.
In fact, Chen Yanxi has acted in many ancient costumes in the domestic entertainment industry, but her image is not suitable for ancient costumes, and her acting skills are not good enough to make people ignore her image. Thinking about her famous work "Shen Jiayi", Michelle Chen fits a simple and elegant image, but too many settings have erased her personal characteristics.
Nowadays, we are middle-aged anyway, so it is better to work diligently in filming and let the characters speak for themselves. The environment in the entertainment industry is average, and there are more routes for "middle-aged girls" to choose from. Compared with idol dramas that have a lot of traffic, urban dramas, workplace dramas, and daily life dramas have gradually become the world of middle-aged girls. It's just whether Chen Yanxi can squeeze in. Entering this track is still uncertain, because the competition in this track is also fierce.
However, it always takes courage to start a career again. Now that you have decided, just try to move forward.
