Chapter 53
Lin Hong: "They suddenly announced the good news on Weibo today and paid a lot of money to make it a trending topic. It's been running all day, and you can still see it online now."
Nan Tao took out her phone and checked Weibo while asking, "What did Director Le say?"
Lin Hong: "I haven't been able to contact them yet, but Director Le reposted the official announcement on Weibo, along with an emoji of a kitten sneering and mocking me."
After Nan Tao logged onto Weibo, she saw the hot search terms hanging high above.
#Rongya won the title of Best Actress in Music Direction! #
#Yong Ya and Jiang Hui stand side by side#
#Rongya: An underestimated talented and popular flower#
#Breaking out of the killing siege, Rong Ya wins the heroine! #
Clicking into the entry, the first one with the highest popularity is from the official V of Tianyu Century: Congratulations to Rong Ya for winning the female lead in Director Le's film, alongside actress Jiang Hui. I hope you can bring the audience the legendary life of the heroine in this movie @Rong Ya
vRongya: Retweet this Weibo post from Tianyu Century and @天娱世纪官v Thank you Director Le for recognizing my acting skills! Thank you to the company for their strong support. I hope to bring everyone a perfect experience.
The comments below the Weibo post are all unanimous in their support.
[I love you, my goddess.]
Ahhhhhh, my baby, the movie is out, I'm calling on the whole family to go watch it. 】
[Yaya, you're amazing! You even managed to win the female lead role from Director Le. I'm so excited.]
[Hehe, this is our Yaya's strength. Unlike a certain actress named Nan who overestimates her own abilities.]
【Take my goddess husband away, no one can compete with me. 】
[This is a slap in the face, right? A certain female artist surnamed Nan, I advise you not to be so shameless as to use our Yaya's traffic.]
[Congratulations in advance to Yaya for winning the Best Actress award. Good night, baby.]
[Take our Yaya away! A shameless variety show host is trying to scam Yaya.]
[Goddess, you are awesome! Your acting skills are recognized by everyone in the country. I wish you a successful and successful acting career.]
Nan Tao looked all the way through and curled her lips, "It's funny, Rong Ya's online shopping is so careless."
Lin Hong said angrily, "You still have time to laugh? Others are bullying you."
Nan Tao opened the Doudou app and checked Niu Fang's message, replying, "This kind of person isn't worth getting angry at. Don't worry, it's okay. It's mine and no one else can take it away, unless I don't want it anymore."
As soon as the word "Niu" was typed into the search box, five or six drop-down entries popped up instantly.
#Niu Fang forced his biological mother to kneel#
#Niu Fang forced his parents to ask for their property#
#Niu Fang is an unfilial son#
#Niu Fang's whole story#
#Niu Fang will do anything to get money#
#Niu Fang's situation is reversed, consuming the sympathy of the Chinese people#
Nan Tao read through the entries with a frown on her face. What a mess of terms.
Clicking on the first entry, the one at the top of the list is a big V with the nickname "Never Tell Lies". He has 13 million followers, which is more than the number of fans of traffic stars. I don't know who is following him.
Nan Tao watched the video posted by the "Never Tell Lies" account, and her expression became more and more expressionless.
The video, though only a minute long, is rife with conflict and contradiction. It begins with Niu Fang, acting in a condescending manner and forcing the boss's wife to pay him money. Then it switches to a scene of Niu Fang beating Wang Jiang, and then to a scene of the boss's wife kneeling before Niu Fang at the police station. It's truly shocking.
These shots are obviously edited by humans. There is a clear cause and effect in the video, but the real scenes are synthesized into a complete one through editing techniques. You say the video is fake, but they are indeed real. You say the video is real, but the beginning and the end are obviously cut off to stir up people's emotions.
When Nan Tao opened the comment section, she saw that everyone was cursing Niu Fang for being too much, being unfilial, and forcing his biological mother. Some people even shouted at Niu Fang to just die.
Nan Tao clicked on the latest video of the big V, which was a real person explaining the Niu Fang incident. It seemed fair on the surface, but in fact every word was very vicious and had ulterior motives.
Some netizens who are trapped in the information cocoon are unaware of the truth and have gone to Niu Fang's Douyin account to curse and bully him, as if they have an irreconcilable hatred with Niu Fang for killing his father and mother, and they want to skin Niu Fang and drink his blood.
Nan Tao searched for Niu Fang’s account, clicked on it, and the pinned video was an explanatory statement.
However, netizens were emotionally provoked, did not know the truth, and did not read the statement carefully. They impulsively cursed in the comments.
In particular, an account nicknamed "Enthusiastic and Kind Big Sister" accused Niu Fang under this statement video:
"I advise you not to go too far. Your parents gave you life, which is already a great favor. Yet, you're actually forcing your biological parents for money. You're not grateful for bringing you into this beautiful world, and you're even trying to use journalists and the media to cyberbully them! There are so many abducted and abandoned children in this world. Why aren't they as vicious as you? People like you will get their comeuppance sooner or later! I'm waiting to see you suffer a horrible end!"
Nan Tao laughed out of anger. These crazy women didn't care about the facts or the truth, and vented their dissatisfaction and frustration in real life on the Internet. Niu Fang was only in his teens, a minor. What crime had he committed to make these people catch him and cyberbully him, wishing him dead?
"Taozi, why are you suddenly so angry?" Lin Hong wondered.
Nan Tao asked, "Do you know where Niu Fang is?"
Lin Hong: "It sounds familiar, but I didn't pay much attention to it."
Nan Tao: "The boy whose father is looking for his mother has been trending recently."
Lin Hong: "Now that you mention it, I remember there is this person."
Nan Tao handed the phone to Lin Hong and said, "Take a look. Is this excessive? A group of people cyberbullying a child."
Lin Hong: "People nowadays...ah...I don't know why everyone is so resentful."
Nan Tao: "I'll post a video to show my support."
Lin Hong opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally gave up and said, "Forget it, just send it if you want."
Nan Tao: "It's so pitiful for a child to have no one to support him. What if he becomes depressed and commits suicide? One more person's support means more strength. Maybe a life can be saved by accident."
Afterwards, Nan Tao reposted Niu Fang's life on Doudou and Weibo and expressed support. She also reposted the unedited video of the reporter's live broadcast.
Nan Tao's movements attracted the attention of netizens.
If Nan Tao had posted something before, there might not have been any movement, but because Rong Ya was frequently on the hot searches today, Nan Tao, as the target of public ridicule, naturally also gained a lot of attention in disguise, although it was all negative.
Due to the emergence of the variable Nan Tao, some netizens who were fooled by a few crooked media and big Vs with millions of fans have become sober and used their meager power to post comments and explain the truth to people around them.
Nan Tao was happy to see this.
Lin Hong: "Have you contacted Director Le?"
Nan Tao: "Don't worry, let the bullet fly for a while."
Lin Hong: "Okay, as long as you know what's going on. Can you come to the company tomorrow? Someone from Director Le's crew will be here to discuss this with us."
Nan Tao touched her chin and said, "Alright, there's nothing to worry about anyway. I'll go over and take a look."
Lin Hong looked at Nan Tao, who had a standard oval face, delicate and bright facial features, and fair skin. Both her head-to-skull ratio and waist-to-hip ratio were quite perfect, and her overall recognition was very strong. With this appearance and height, she was a very competitive top presence in the entertainment industry, both in the past and now.
In addition, with Nan Tao's terrifyingly powerful background, the probability of her becoming a top star in the entertainment industry is very high. Unfortunately, she was too inactive before and not very motivated.
Lin Hong was very ambitious at that time. When she learned that Nan Tao had chosen her as her agent, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep for three days and three nights. Every day she fantasized about how to make Nan Tao a top star in Chinese entertainment, so that she would be the gold medal agent behind the top star in Chinese entertainment. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She even customized a top star god-making plan for Nan Tao day and night.
Later, reality told me that I was just thinking too much. This young lady with excellent innate conditions, a terrifyingly powerful background, and someone who was beyond the reach of others, really just came to the entertainment industry to have fun.
No matter how much Lin Hong felt pained, she was just an employee. Seeing the delicious fish in her mouth turn into a salted fish that refused to even turn over, her heart was filled with sadness.
But fortunately, Nan Tao has recently figured it out and decided to strive for progress. Although I don’t know how long it will last, no one can stop Nan Tao while she is determined to fight!
Lin Hong intended to let Rong Ya become Nan Tao's tempering stone, but she couldn't hit her too hard. If Nan Tao suddenly became depressed and became a lazy person again, she would want to die.
"Taozi, take a look at this." Lin Hong took out a stack of A4 paper with densely written words on it.
Nan Tao felt dizzy at the sight of so many words, her scalp tingling as she asked, "What is this? A top-tier god-making counterattack plan?!"
Lin Hong: "Didn't you say you wanted to have more fans than Rongya? We should plan and do it step by step. Take a look and if there's anything that's not appropriate, we'll change it. We'll definitely meet your requirements."
Nan Tao held her forehead and wanted to retreat.
But thinking about this ridiculous world of fiction, she didn't want herself and her family to face a tragic end. If she could become a top-tier influencer, maybe someone would come out to defend her when she and her family were subjected to online violence. Just like Niu Fang's incident, because no one supported him, he was attacked by a big V with millions of fans.
Lin Hong: "Don't be fooled by the large number of words, but the actual workload is not large. They are all the best of the best, suitable for your development track, and the resources are all top-notch. However, in order to take a people-friendly approach, some well-known brands are also included."
Nan Tao closed her eyes, looking at death with indifference, and said, "Okay, you decide."
Lin Hong smiled so hard that her eyebrows narrowed into slits, without any trace of her previous anger. "Don't you trust me to do things? I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Nan Tao smiled and said, "Look at you, so happy?"
Lin Hong said frankly: "My biggest dream is to be able to bring out the top stars in the Chinese entertainment industry. This is the highest pursuit of all agents."
Nan Tao smiled and said, "Then I wish you the best."
Lin Hong: "Don't worry, I will definitely make you a top star in Chinese entertainment, and make the likes of Rong Ya worship you."
Nan Tao tutted, "So immature, what are you thinking? It would be better if you didn't scold you behind their backs for stealing their resources. Why are you worshipping me?"
Lin Hong: "Kneel down and crawl on the ground?"
Nan Tao was speechless, "Why didn't I realize you were so imaginative before?"
Lin Hong looked serious: "Don't you feel good?"
Nan Tao imagined that scene and laughed so hard that her body shook. "It's really cool."
After returning to Hai City and parting with Lin Hong, Nan Tao Yu Ze returned to Wanyuanzhuang.
Nan Tao lay comfortably on the big bed and sighed, "It's still so comfortable at home."
As I was sighing, the cell phone rang.
Nan Tao said, "You hit me at the perfect time. I just got home."
Yu Zhengyang: "Are you tired?"
Nan Tao said coquettishly, "I'm so tired, I don't even want to shoot anymore. It's so hot out here in the sun, and I have to pick up trash. I've never done any work since I was a child."
Yu Zhengyang coaxed in a low voice: "Why don't you just not go."
Nan Tao was speechless. What kind of straight guy statement was that? She knew he was straight, but she didn't know he was this straight. Her almond-shaped eyes rolled, "But I like it. It's tiring, but it's fun. You don't know I get to eat melons every episode. Besides, I like Huihui and the others very much. We get along well."
Yu Zhengyang pondered for a moment and said, "I'll call the TV station and ask their director to choose an easier role."
Nan Tao rolled her eyes and said, "No, it's too watery and the audience can tell at a glance. It's not interesting."
Yu Zhengyang: “…”
Nan Tao: "Okay, okay, busy man, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to take a shower and make a face mask."
After saying that, without giving Yu Zhengyang a chance to speak, she hung up the phone and went to the bathroom with her nightgown.
On the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, Yu Zhengyang looked down at his black phone screen.
Silence is Cambridge tonight.
Suddenly, a gentle and surprised voice sounded from the front, interrupting Yu Zhengyang's resentment.
"Zhengyang~, I didn't expect to meet you here." The woman who spoke shed her aloofness and alienation, and her smile was soft and sweet.
