In the entertainment industry, besides illegal and disorderly acts such as tax evasion, what celebrities fear most is the spread of false rumors, whether they are male or female.
Previously, Xiao Qingfeng's former agent had tried to report him for tax evasion, but instead of ruining him, it helped him establish a positive image as someone who did not evade taxes.
Since that incident, many celebrities have started to secretly pay back taxes, which can be considered as making some contribution to society.
So since tax evasion is no longer an option, the only way to bring down Xiao Qingfeng is through his private life.
But before Ke Jialong could make a move, Xiao Qingfeng struck first.
That very evening, Xiao Qingfeng's assistant brought over twelve fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged models, internet celebrities, and many third- and fourth-tier minor stars.
In the entertainment industry, a place where things can change in an instant, if someone wants to target him through his private life, he might as well strike first and proactively cultivate the image of a playboy.
The models, internet celebrities, and minor stars that were brought in by his assistant began to appear frequently around him under Xiao Qingfeng's arrangement.
The paparazzi, like sharks smelling blood, quickly swarmed around, capturing every seemingly ambiguous moment.
Xiao Qingfeng accompanied these women as they strolled through the bustling commercial street, a faint smile on his face as he seemingly indulgently selected various luxury goods for them.
In a high-end restaurant, he elegantly cuts steak for the beautiful woman across from him; the flickering candlelight creates an atmosphere of ambiguity.
In a street-side coffee shop, he leaned lazily against the sofa, chatting and laughing with the internet celebrity next to him, his eyes occasionally revealing a hint of "affection".
The internet exploded instantly, with all sorts of reports flooding the internet.
"Xiao Qingfeng's womanizing ways confirmed? He's been seen with multiple women!"
"A former music superstar is now embroiled in a sex scandal, his image has collapsed?"
Headlines like "Xiao Qingfeng's chaotic private life revealed: What kind of person is he?" filled the pages of major entertainment news outlets.
Fans were divided into two camps. One camp firmly believed that Xiao Qingfeng would not have fallen so low, and that there must be a hidden story behind it. They tried their best to defend their idol online and engaged in fierce arguments with those negative comments.
The other side was greatly disappointed with Xiao Qingfeng, and many unfollowed him, even making some extreme remarks online to condemn his behavior.
Xiao Qingfeng remained calm and composed. During a shopping trip with a minor celebrity, he deliberately allowed paparazzi to take photos of the celebrity intimately linking arms with him.
Colleagues in the entertainment industry are also paying close attention to this matter. Some are secretly rejoicing that Xiao Qingfeng is now embroiled in a scandal, which means they have one less competitor.
Some people were just watching the show, curious to see how Xiao Qingfeng would end up; others were speculating whether Xiao Qingfeng had truly given up on his acting career.
As time went on, Xiao Qingfeng's scandalous rumors continued to gain traction.
Meanwhile, Ke Jialong, seeing Xiao Qingfeng's current "indulgence," also began to have some doubts.
He originally planned to start with Xiao Qingfeng's private life and deliver a fatal blow, but now that Xiao Qingfeng has exposed everything to the public, would it seem a bit superfluous for him to take action again?
Moreover, he was worried that Xiao Qingfeng might have some other tricks up his sleeve, and that it would be bad if he fell into his trap.
Xiao Qingfeng continues his "playboy" persona journey, taking different women to various fashion parties and venues.
As the days went by, Xiao Qingfeng's scandals became one of the hottest topics in the entertainment industry, with new revelations and speculations emerging almost every day.
"What's wrong with Xiao Qingfeng? Has he gotten so arrogant just because he's become a little famous? He's been spending all his time with these women and has completely forgotten about music!"
A netizen angrily typed these words on a social media platform and then clicked send.
"Exactly. I used to think he was a talented singer, but now it seems he's just a womanizer who's addicted to alcohol and women. He's probably forgotten all about his musical dreams and is only thinking about how to have fun among women."
Immediately, another comment followed, full of sarcasm and disdain.
"From his debut until now, he probably hasn't focused on creating good works; all he's thought about is how to become famous and make money. Now that he's famous, his true colors have been revealed. He probably started having inappropriate relationships with women back in middle school. This kind of person should be blacklisted from the entertainment industry!"
A netizen claiming to be a seasoned music fan expressed his strong opinion, accompanied by several angry emojis.
"Look at him now, he doesn't look like a singer at all anymore."
"He flaunts himself with those models and internet celebrities all day long, it's disgusting. He thinks he's a master of romance, but he's actually just a degenerate scumbag. His music is probably just hype and marketing, it's not real talent at all."
This comment quickly garnered a lot of likes and inspired many other netizens to echo it.
"Xiao Qingfeng, keep going like this. Sooner or later you'll ruin your career. The entertainment industry doesn't need someone like you who only knows how to have fun and has no professional ethics. Get out of our sight!"
Online, a torrent of insults and vitriol poured in, seemingly threatening to drown Xiao Qingfeng in this ocean of public opinion.
Xiao Qingfeng's loyal fans flooded social media platforms with questions, and the Weibo comment section was filled with anxious messages from fans:
"Brother Feng, we believe you wouldn't do this. What exactly are you planning?"
There was also a lot of concern on the Douyin platform.
However, Xiao Qingfeng remained silent and did not respond to the fans' questions.
It has to be said that a chaotic private life is indeed a taboo subject for celebrities. Just look at how popular Xiao Qingfeng was before; once he stepped into this taboo, his reputation was immediately and severely affected.
At the height of the public outcry, Xiao Qingfeng finally took action.
He posted a long statement on his official Weibo account, in which he wrote: "To all my friends who have been following me, I know that you have been full of doubts and disappointment towards me during this period of time."
"But I want to tell everyone that in this entertainment industry, there are always some people who can't stand my existence and try to destroy me completely. They tried to bring me down on the grounds of tax evasion, and after failing, they turned their attention to my private life."
"So I chose to 'demonstrate' it to everyone online first, so that everyone can see their ugly faces and stay clear-headed when they encounter similar things in the future, so that they can distinguish the truth and not be easily misled by false information."
The statement immediately caused a huge uproar online, and netizens who had been verbally abusing him stopped their "keyboard attacks".
"So that's how it is! We all misunderstood Xiao Qingfeng. He was using himself as bait to lure out those with ill intentions!"
"We never imagined there were so many hidden stories behind this. We really misunderstood him. Xiao Qingfeng is so courageous!"
"This is the truly smart approach, protecting yourself while leaving no room for those who want to do bad things to hide."
Xiao Qingfeng's fans were even more excited, and the Weibo comment section was instantly flooded with their messages:
"Brother Feng, we knew you wouldn't let us down, you're amazing!"
"I've always believed that Brother Feng is innocent, now those haters can shut up!"
"Feng's wisdom and sense of responsibility are admirable, and we will support you even more firmly in the future!"
The Douyin platform is also full of videos made by fans to clarify and explain for Xiao Qingfeng, and the number of likes and reposts has risen rapidly.
Many of the fans who had previously left the fandom have returned, expressing regret for their impulsive actions and being misled by appearances.
Ke Jialong and his group were dumbfounded. Xiao Qingfeng had predicted their predictions. All this trouble was just a "show" for them to see.
Even if they wanted to spread rumors about Xiao Qingfeng's chaotic private life now, they definitely wouldn't achieve the desired effect. Just thinking about this made the group furious, and a deep sense of frustration welled up inside them.
