Dylan Wang Gambles Potentially Vaulting to the Top of His Age Group Actors with Upcoming Guardians of the Dafeng
When all eyes are on you then you either vault over the pressure or crumble. Such is the case with C-actor Dylan Wang and his next drama the soon-to-air Guardians of the Dafeng. C-ent insiders and his rival near age drama actors are all watching closely how this drama does, because if it’s a hit then reportedly it will send Dylan to the next level and cement him as unmatched on the top of the drama actor list for his age group (between early through late twenties, Dylan is 25). There is also murmurings that his rival actor fandoms are planning on major campaigns as the drama airs to undermine any buzz he’s getting so let’s see if that happens then we’ll know why. Zam, it sure is a dog-eat-dog world in entertainment bizness.
This happens to all idols drama, isn’t it?
Well, the trailer looked rather boring…
I think it will need a bit more than Dylan’s “resting devil face” (on which he seems to rely a lot) to keep viewers interested for 30+ episodes.
And before anyone asks, no, I’m not a fan of any of his competitors, just someone who loves a good plot and strong acting skills.
There’s always some dramatic person on the internet making these hyperbolic statements. Even if he fails he’ll be fine. Look at the dud after dud Gong Jun has been serving, and he’s still getting lead roles in decent budget productions. Call me suspicious but it almost seems like something his own team would release, just so that if he does get critiqued, they can point to the so called “preplanned smear campaign”.
Well, his latest song “Burn” is about him dissing his haters. Hopes he proves them right, otherwise… Like everything else in China, competition is fierce, there are hundreds, maybe hundreds of thousands, of people competing for the same jobs.
Who are his rivals of the same age group? Plenty I think. There are quite a few up and coming actors with at least one hit dramas under their belts. Wang Xingyue, Ding Yuxi, and now Li Yunrui, are on their way to next-level stardom, just to name a few. And these actors do not only have visuals, but also have very charismatic on-screen presence and potential to expand their acting range. The competition is fierce given these few foregoing rising stars besides those plenty still stuck in the pedestrian league in terms of either acting or on-screen charm. You’d never know when those who have been doing boring drama after drama will breakout and threaten Dylan’s quest for the dominance. LOL. Such competition is Good for C-ent though. Fans should stop playing dirty and toxic tricks against other actors who are not their faves. If their faves aren’t up to par to survive such competition, running dirty campaigns against rival actors is useless and only short lived. Those who have talent to shine will find their niches anyway. It’s all about who can bring viewership and followers to make money for investors. Xiao Zhan is the best example to teach rabid antis good lessons.
