There is a popular saying among fans of the current drama that is "is your CP duo in 2022". Filming with two and three couples on the screen is a popular trend this year. If the casting of the play can bring together a pair of two and three pairs of male and female protagonists, it will definitely become a major marketing selling point of this drama, which is both topical and can attract new and old drama fans, if the stars are willing to cooperate and actively interact outside the play, it will make CP fans excited to chase the drama.
The on-screen couple co-starred in the TV series again, and the audience became more and more happy to see it, of course, this is just the icing on the cake in the casting, if the reputation of the work cannot keep up, this selling point is meaningless, and even will quickly consume the initial good impression left by the two actors on the fans.
The urban inspirational drama "Light Chaser" is being broadcast, which is based on a non-governmental public welfare rescue organization and tells the story of a group of people who love to chase the light to join the rescue team and go through various disasters. This is also a drama where the workplace line and the love line go hand in hand, the male and female protagonists played by Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian, one is a lawyer and the other is a doctor, both participate in public welfare rescue, and have participated in earthquake and flood rescue for many times, and the relationship between the two is heating up day by day in the process. In addition to the plot, the most discussed by the audience about the play is the third cooperation between Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian.
In the 2015 popular urban romance drama "Why Sheng Xiao Silent", Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian played the youth of the male and female protagonists, and the two interpreted the characters' campus love well and became the "first love CP" remembered by many audiences.
In the 2017 costume drama "Ancient Love Song", Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian played the sub-character story, the two had feelings for each other, tied the knot, and started a sweet love, which is an enviable fairy couple.
This time the two continued the front edge in "Light Chaser", and many old fans of the two have high expectations for the actor to work together again. During the broadcast of "Light Chaser", "Why Sheng Xiao Silent" was paid attention to again, and some netizens found that the advertisements in the play were still being updated, indicating that the show has been constantly making profits.
There are many actors like Luo Yunxi and Wu Qian who have partnered to act many times, and the actors who can repeatedly interpret the on-screen couple are mostly because the roles they work with for the first time leave a good impression on the audience, and some actors cooperate with each other, and even continue the personality style and work style of the previous drama, or complement the previous work to meet the audience's expectations for the plot to create more topics.
For example, Zhang Zifeng and Wu Lei collaborated on works such as "Favor" and "Midsummer Future", and fans have high expectations and hope that the two can have more sparks in performance; Zhang Zifeng and Peng Yuchang's cooperation in "Take My Brother Away" and "Longing for Life" continue the "brother and sister" character and continue to attract attention.
For example, Zhong Hanliang and Li Xiaoran co-starred in "Too Late to Say I Love You" for twelve years, and once again cooperated in the urban emotional drama "There is You in This Life", which became a major concern. The male and female protagonists of the two dramas have similarities, both are the male protagonist is infatuated and cannot be loved, the female protagonist has a tragic and pitiful fate, both dramas are sadomasochistic stories, the two actors cooperate again, fiercely pinched the fans, and sadistic and up.
In costume idol dramas and urban romance dramas, it is very common for on-screen couples to pair up and triple. For example, Yang Zi and Cheng Yi have cooperated in "Qingyunzhi" and "Agarwood Like Crumbs", Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu have cooperated in "Half Honey and Half Wound" and "Long Moon Ember Ming", Zhao Liying and Lin Xinxin have cooperated in "Chu Qiao Biography" and "Walking with Feng", Cheng Yi and Zhang Yuxi starring in "Song with Jun" and "South Wind Knows My Intention" and so on. In the casting of these dramas, the male and female protagonists are both seen by the "character CP fans" to watch the drama, there are accumulated fans, and the new drama is not worried about no topicality.
But there are also works that will be created with the purpose of consuming screen couple fans, and the second pair of screen couples is the biggest selling point, creating bad works regardless of the plot and personality, resulting in word-of-mouth crises in the works and actors.
For example, actors Yang Jue and Mao Xiaotong played Chen Yu and Zhong Xiaoqin in "Thirty Only" are a very life-oriented and representative couple, and the quarrels and entanglements between the couples are very real, so that many audiences have a sense of substitution, and the popularity of the actors has been greatly improved.
Subsequently, the love movie "Love in Years" quickly locked Yang Jue and Mao Xiaotong as the protagonists, trying to extend the on-screen couple to the big screen, but the plot of this movie is bloody and the love scenes are all "industrial saccharine", the reputation of the work is insufficient, and the on-screen couple partners have also lost their aura.
The actor's second and third pairs will increase some attention and traffic, and behind this is the positive enthusiasm of young audiences to "snort CP" trend. The actor's second and third pairs are a kind of catering to "CP fans", and more works are to see the gimmick and publicity effect of this topic, and to enjoy this dividend. But two pairs are not a panacea, and letting two actors pair up and three pairs may be a good business, and actors also want to continue the popularity in the bundle, but doing so is not necessarily all about reaping benefits.
The key to the work in which the actor's second and third pairs produce good results does not lie in the casting of the actor, but also depends on the actor's acting skills, script quality, director level, etc. The on-screen couple partner itself is the so-called "metaphysics", some viewers like the starring pair, some viewers may not like it, and it is difficult to quantify how much actual click rate CP fans can bring. If the audience likes the characters in the previous play, they do not necessarily like the roles in the actor's second and third pairs. Some actors and actresses partner in costume dramas that are very suitable and attract fans, and the second urban drama is complained by fans that the appearance has declined and the personality does not match, this kind of pairing is an ineffective pair, and watching too much will cause serious aesthetic fatigue.
