The 44-year-old Yan Chengxu was once a childhood male god in the hearts of a generation, and he also used the popularity of the blockbuster drama "Meteor Garden" to make films in the past ten years.
Recently, Yan Chengxu has relied on "Brother Who Cut Through Thorns" to re-fire, according to Taiwan media exposure, Yan Chengxu's film remuneration has now risen to a higher level than 20 million.
However, Yan Chengxu's acting skills for many years have become the focus of public discussion, how long is Yan Chengxu ready to play "middle-aged overlord"?
Recently, a variety show called "Brother With Thorns and Thorns" was very popular, and the 40 male artists who participated in the show all received varying degrees of attention.
Many of them have successfully gone out of the circle by recording programs to let everyone see their charm, and some artists have become popular by human settings during recording, and Yan Chengxu obviously belongs to the latter.
In the era when Yan Chengxu became popular, being able to sing and dance and act was the standard for idol artists, and Yan Chengxu was no exception, he was also the captain of the F4 group.
However, Yan Chengxu's singing and dancing strength does not occupy much advantage in the show, and he has also been questioned a lot in the early stage.
Fortunately, Yan Chengxu himself seems to have a clear understanding of his situation, and he often relieves stress by self-deprecating.
Over time, Yan Chengxu's indisputable personality and humorous words and deeds have also attracted many new fans for him.
After participating in the show, Yan Chengxu's remuneration has obviously changed significantly.
A few days ago, some media broke the news that Yan Chengxu's current offer for starring in a film and television drama has reached 20 million, which is also the ceiling of many Hong Kong and Taiwan artists.
You know, before Yan Chengxu participated in "Brother With Thorns and Thorns", his situation has not been very good.
Previously, "I Like You" starring Yan Chengxu and Shen Yue not only failed to achieve good results, but also exposed his acting shortcomings, which also made Yan Chengxu's reputation plummet.
The two generations of "Meteor Garden" starring circle-breaking cooperation not only failed to bring greater benefits, but Yan Chengxu did not receive a better script in the follow-up.
Even the film launched by Yan Chengxu in the first half of 2021 has not been able to deliver a satisfactory answer, and it will eventually exceed 10 million at the box office.
Even if the heroine is quite popular and the reputation is still good, Ren Suxi is still useless, and Yan Chengxu seems to urgently need to prove himself.
However, even if participating in "Brother With Thorns" is a turning point, it is not an easy task to stand out among the brothers.
Obviously, Yan Chengxu has mastered the traffic password and successfully attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.
Of course, all this is thanks to Zhang Yunlong's help.
Originally, Yan Chengxu and other brothers were not very familiar with him, and he himself seemed very restrained when he first arrived in the new environment.
However, the younger zhang Yunlong took the initiative to say in an interview that he admired Yan Chengxu and extended an olive branch to Yan Chengxu in the process of recording the program.
The two actors performed in the same group throughout the whole process, and there was more interaction in private.
There are also many fans who regard the brothers Yan Chengxu and Zhang Yunlong as the limited CP in the show, and take pleasure in watching their interactive bridges.
With zhang Yunlong's help, Yan Chengxu's attention is indeed much higher.
However, because he did not bring a stunning stage in the early stage of the program recording, some people still questioned Yan Chengxu's strength.
However, Yan Chengxu's personality is good enough, and he is always willing to lower his stature and constantly learn new knowledge, so Yan Chengxu still has a good popularity among his brothers.
The follow-up Yan Chengxu's group also contributed a lot of wonderful performances, and the doubts about Yan Chengxu are getting less and less, and he is also frequently on the hot search because of self-deprecation and other topics.
Although there are thorns along the way, if Yan Chengxu really increased his film remuneration to 20 million by participating in variety shows, then he should still make works that match the remuneration.
However, many netizens feel pessimistic about this, and most people feel that Yan Chengxu's acting skills are really not good enough, and they do not match his salary.
In fact, when Yan Chengxu first debuted, his performance was recognized by many people.
At that time, the idol dramas on the market were basically exaggerated styles, and Yan Chengxu was still the best among them.
But over time, people's aesthetics changed, and many actors began to try to transform and succeeded.
As far as Seung-wook seems to be stagnant, his acting skills are still stuck in the stage of "Meteor Garden" like his appearance.
At a time when academic actors are constantly emerging and people have higher requirements for the acting skills of actors, Yan Chengxu should indeed let everyone see the change.
However, at present, Yan Chengxu has not yet confirmed the appearance of new dramas, and the so-called 20 million film remuneration is only a media report, and the specific situation has yet to be confirmed.
Do you think Yan Chengxu's acting skills are worth 20 million?
