Chapter 56

Just as many girls like to imitate the famous lines from the hit drama *Zhen Huan Zhuan* from years ago.

Aizen's famous lines in *Bleach* also became the object of imitation for countless fans.

And compared to the lines of the concubines in *Zhen Huan Zhuan* that left straight men confused.

Aizen's remarks were truly concise and practical.

While being literary, they also carried a strong air of pretentiousness.

Now, when boys go out to chat with their brothers, if you can't repeat a few of Aizen's famous lines, you seem outdated.

The power of an idol is truly terrifying.

……

……

After the latest two episodes of *Bleach* aired, it completely pushed this show onto a pedestal.

Douban rating: 9.8!

And many Aizen fans even expressed their stance in the comment section.

Saying that at least 7.8 of the 9.8 points were supported by the character of Aizen.

【This is the best action drama, costume drama, and even the best domestic drama in the last ten years】

【The Aizen played by Xu Feng brought this show from 'excellent' to the level of 'deification'】

【Help, after watching the Aizen played by Xu Feng, I can no longer look directly at the roles he played before, such as Li Xiaoyao, Erlang Shen, and Li Yuanfang...】

【Yes, yes, yes, after finishing *Bleach*, I always feel unsatisfied and want to revisit Xu Feng's previous dramas, but as soon as I see Aizen's face, I always feel like he's plotting some conspiracy】

……

……

Until last month, the biggest beneficiaries of the hit *Bleach* were the lead actor Hu Ge and Gao Yuanyuan, Jiao Enjun, and others who had more screen time.

And as for the female lead Zhao Jinmai, it goes without saying.

Her Weibo follower count rose directly from five digits to eight digits, and even began to impact nine digits.

Only then did many viewers discover.

It turns out that many years ago, when Xu Feng was filming *Lotus Lantern*.

This petite "Rukia Kuchiki" in the show had already collaborated with Aizen.

Back then, Zhao Jinmai had played little Nezha in *Lotus Lantern*.

However, with the four latest episodes of *Bleach* updated in the past two weeks, it is no exaggeration to say that it was Aizen's personal show.

And the biggest beneficiary, naturally, was Xu Feng himself.

It's just that unlike Zhao Jinmai, the growth in Xu Feng's Weibo follower count wasn't much.

Because he had played so many classic roles in the previous ten years.

Anyone who plays Weibo and follows the entertainment industry had basically already followed him.

I'm afraid only Jay Chou opening a Weibo account could barely compare to him in follower count.

But Jay Chou doesn't play this...

His follower count was already at the ceiling level; it couldn't grow much more.

And the biggest manifestation of the benefits Xu Feng gained was in the merchandise store.

Just as the two episodes this week were updated, the second and third anime merchandise stores Xu Feng opened in Kyoto and Chengdu began operations.

And with the release of that blog post by Xu Feng.

Everyone knew that next week would be the finale of *Bleach*, or rather, the finale of *Bleach: Soul Society Arc*.

Thinking about it, it makes sense; after all, after watching these two episodes, the audience also realized that the battle between the protagonist group and Aizen had only just begun.

How could the remaining plot possibly end in just two episodes?

And when they saw Xu Feng say that all the profits from the merchandise store would be used for the filming of the next *Bleach* work.

Originally, these two episodes had already pushed the popularity of the character Aizen and the show *Bleach* to an unprecedented height.

Now that Xu Feng had said this, countless fans were instantly hyped.

After watching Aizen's personal show, what most fans wanted most now was a set of Aizen-style Shinigami robes and a 5th Division Captain's haori, plus a Kyoka Suigetsu with god-tier abilities.

And upon hearing that Xu Feng would use the operating revenue for the filming of the next *Bleach* installment.

To this, fans only wanted to say "shut up and take my money!"

One by one, they went on a shopping spree as if money were no object, looting all the products from the three merchandise stores.

Seeing the empty store, Xu Feng touched his chin, thinking to himself, am I being a bit bad? Tricking fans like this?

However, this bit of conscience was immediately buried at the bottom of the valley by the revenue reported by the finance department.

I am doing all this to film better works!

And it's a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit, how can it be called tricking?

Just as Xu Feng was counting money with glowing eyes, a call suddenly came in.

It was from Hu Ge.

Is this kid coming to butter him up again?

Ever since Xu Feng let Hu Ge play Ichigo Kurosaki, and it became a huge hit.

This guy had basically become Xu Feng's number one sycophant.

Well, Jiao Enjun ranked second.

Besides Xu Feng and Zhao Jinmai, they were the two biggest beneficiaries of the hit *Bleach*.
