Chapter 427: Chapter 427: The Most Likable Second Male Lead

“Conquest of the World” novel fans were thrilled to learn about the film adaptation, and besides the lead roles, the most anticipated character was the second male lead, Shen Jinyou.

A youthful and unparalleled beauty, who turned dark for love and insane for affection–a multi-faceted and complex character, transitioning from purity to darkness, from innocence to cruelty, yet unwaveringly devoted to the female lead. As the former Crown Prince of Desert North and the most beautiful man in the realm, he captured plenty of swoons and tears.

Shen Jinyou was even rated as one of the most likable and heart-wrenching second male leads in the novel.

The official “Conquest of the World” account had previously announced the actors for all roles except the second male lead, keeping the fans and various fandoms eagerly waiting. Then, tonight, they suddenly made the announcement, and reactions were mixed.

The avid novel readers and Ye’s Fans were overjoyed.

[Holy crap!!! Shen Jinyou is actually played by Ye Xian, what a surprise! I’m too adorable in this picture. This scene must be when Shen Jinyou is being brutally beaten by Old Madam Wang, right? That tenacious little expression, those tearful yet defiant eyes, so touching! It’s like seeing young Shen Jinyou’s true portrayal!]

[So satisfied, previously I was worried the production would cast some random person to play Shen Jinyou just to elevate the main leads, but it turned out to be Ye Xian! Ye Xian truly embodies “a youth of outstanding beauty, pure and flawless”!]

[Second male lead fans are crying their eyes out, this character poster is just too tempting, his expressions alone are filled with drama!]

[Passersby, the looks and style are amazing! He is the second male lead, and now I feel like the heroine might be a bit ungrateful!]

[Can some people stop using acting as an excuse to step out from the books? I’m talking about you, Ye Xian!]

[Ahhh! Xiao You is actually my Brother Ye, Ye’s Fans are so happy they’re rolling on the ground. Being a fan of Brother Ye’s career is so satisfying. Ever since “Everyone Has Superpower”, his choice of roles has been explosively good!]

[My beloved child is playing my favorite second male, it’s so thrilling! This is a big production, perform well, and aim to skyrocket to fame!]

[Xianxian is going to explode in popularity with this role, it’s exceptionally attractive! Rising in both the esports and entertainment industry, let’s go!]

[The elegant beautiful youth, raising his glass to gaze into the sky, as immaculate as a jade tree in the wind, he is a charming young man, and also the foremost Crown Prince of Desert North…]

Below, Ye’s Fans had already quickly gathered all information regarding the character Shen Jinyou and showered him with flattery and praise.

But the fans of the main male lead, Jiang Wanze, were not happy.

It’s said ‘the main male is for the heroine to love, the second male is for the audience to love’–not to mention that Shen Jinyou is famously known as the hopelessly romantic second male in the novel. Once the show launches, it will surely dominate significant discussion volume. Coupled with Ye Xian’s recent rise in both the entertainment and esports circles, his threat has grown, which is worrying enough for Ze’s fans. And now, the production team is clearly favoring him?

Other TV dramas usually announce their most important characters last, but “Conquest of the World” treated the supporting role’s announcement as the climax, leaving the audience highly anticipative.

Moreover, the official announcement alluded to the “Heavenly God” as someone who heartlessly loves another, implying the main lead, right? Who doesn’t know that in the novel, the main lead Tianlin is referred to as the “Heavenly God” by the female lead? What does this mean? Are they suggesting that their main lead isn’t as deeply in love as the second male? Hah, the main lead is supposed to be focused on his career, not mindlessly obsessed with petty romantic love!

As the girlfriend fans of a top-tier celebrity, they never shy away from a fight. Anyone who touches their brother’s interest or wrongs him will face their wrath directly!
