When you look at newcomers now, they’re either second-generation stars or second-generation rich. Their starting lines are totally different.黄刚: In the past, there were talent shows like "Super Girl" and "The Voice of China"—regular people could turn things around with real ability.赵强: But now talent shows have been suspended, the path is gone, and people with connections take the resources. It’s even tougher for ordinary folks.黄刚: And quite a few rich kids just bring money into a production. Their acting is so-so, but opportunities keep coming.赵强: Fans also add fuel to the fire—comparing family backgrounds. It’s basically a bit of “snobbish worship of wealth.”黄刚: The saddest part is those Hengdian drifters—extras who hang around Hengdian. Low income, swallowing their grievances—nothing like the dream.赵强: So even though showbiz looks glamorous, it’s really a game for a small group. Ordinary people have to stay clear-eyed.
