In the spring of 2008, a little-known urban drama "Ugly Girl Invincible" suddenly hit the shelves on the Internet. It adopted an advanced "seasonal" model, with 10 episodes per season, which was the first of its kind at the time. 
At first, it didn't attract the attention of the public, the opening was simple, the actors were leaderless, and the production team was mediocre. But it soon set off a ratings storm and won the crown of the dark horse in the ratings that year. For the rookie actress Li Xinru, who plays the heroine "Lin Wudi", this drama has undoubtedly changed the trajectory of her life. She was originally just a supporting actor with a dance major, and she had played tricks in many costume dramas with little roles, and she didn't have much hope for the future. So when the director proposed to let her take the lead, she was faintly worried about this kind of ugly girl with a strange image at first, and she didn't know if she could touch the audience. 
To everyone's surprise, the click-through rate and discussion of this small-cost drama have risen rapidly. It soon occupied the first place in the ratings of the same period and continued for 11 weeks. Through the double amplification of TV and the Internet, "Ugly Girl Invincible" quickly entered the public eye, and Lin Wu's struggle process also touched countless ordinary girls who are catching up, and they pinned their longing and hope for a better tomorrow on the story of this ugly duckling who finally turned into a white swan. However, the limelight of celebrities will eventually pass, and the days of admiration by thousands of people will not last long. Several leading actors in "Ugly Girl Invincible", who are popular with half the sky, also failed to stand alone after their popularity. The first to bear the brunt is Li Xinru, the starring actor who became famous in one fell swoop for "Ugly Girl Invincible", a few years after the end of the hit of this drama, she tried to change her name and transform, hoping to start a second spring of her career, but with little success. 
Finally in 2015, she chose to leave the hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry and become a wife and mother. Liu Xiaohu, who played the domineering president pioneer "Ferdinand", was not spared. After relying on the same character to become popular for 5 years, his popularity has plummeted, and he has lost the temperature of the year. In recent years, he had to change his name and make a comeback, hoping to revive his strength, but he still failed to make much of a splash. Seeing the decline of old friends and partners one after another, Liu Xiaohu could only stand in the sunset corridor of the entertainment industry. 
In stark contrast to the two pillars, it is Wang Kai who started from a small supporting role. During the hit broadcast of "Ugly Girl Invincible", "Chen Jiaming" played by Wang Kai was actually not taken seriously, and he had to be in a high state of tension for a long time in order to enter the play. Who would have expected that a few years later, Wang Kai would successfully transform with several popular dramas, and now he is a powerful actor, realizing a gorgeous turn from small transparent to high-profile. 
It can be said that the enlightenment brought by "Ugly Girl Invincible" is particularly profound, it is like a mirror, reflecting the ever-changing entertainment industry. On this battlefield, the ups and downs of the fate of stars often depend on the favor of opportunity. Li Xinru could have gone to a brighter path, she entered the top five in the process of selecting Lin Daiyu that year, and if she successfully played this role at that time, her career development may be different. And when it was popular, no one could have imagined that the most popular moment would be so short. Liu Xiaohu was once praised by the company, and he played the same type for five years. He thought that this was his golden signboard until the scene was broadcast
After that, his popularity declined and he suddenly realized that he had entered the dead circle of fate. In contrast to them is the small supporting actor Wang Kai. Wang Kai started late, started from scratch, and only relied on his own strength and perseverance to accumulate experience and polish his acting skills step by step, until he had the opportunity to be on his own and then become a blockbuster. His success proves that opportunities are always reserved for those who are ready. He may have been the first actor with the most scenes, but when he went, he was just an extra who couldn't get the only line. 
This is the helplessness of the entertainment industry, and it is also the truth that Wang Kai, who has been rolling in it for many years, has a deep understanding.
