At 8:30 in the evening, Su Ling and Lu Feng finished their shower and lay down on the bed together.
The indoor air-conditioning temperature was just right. Su Ling wore a pair of sexy panties, held a soft pillow in her arms, and lay on a silk quilt. Her fluffy natural curls fell around her neck and spread over her back.
His natural curls are very distinctive, slightly straight from the roots to the ears, and curly at the ends. People often mistakenly think that he had his hair permed at a barber shop, but when they find out that his hair is naturally curly, they are all envious.
"I haven't used it for more than three months, how come there are so many messages?" Su Ling held his old mobile phone in his hand and stared at the red dots in the upper right corner of the Weibo APP and WeChat APP in surprise.
When he signed the divorce agreement, he left his phone behind to prevent Li Feng from locating him. Li Feng had just taken it out of the suitcase and returned it to him. He opened it and was surprised by the red dot numbers on the upper right corner of each APP.
Lu Feng was also shirtless, leaning against the headboard with a thin laptop on his legs, editing a spreadsheet. When he heard Su Ling's words, he stopped typing and turned to look at him.
"Call Mom tomorrow," he said.
"Uh..." Su Ling opened the text message and saw a bunch of incoming call alerts, including from his teacher, a senior schoolmate, and Lu Feng's mother, who was also his mother-in-law.
The calls from the teacher and senior should be related to the art exhibition. As for the mother-in-law, she probably just wanted to chat with him.
My mother-in-law is an open-minded old lady. She is nearly seventy years old but looks like she is in her early fifties. She takes good care of herself and dresses fashionably. She looks radiant every day and likes to have afternoon tea with Su Ling.
She had a special liking for jade, and she and Su Ling talked most about jade-related topics. Over time, Su Ling had a general understanding of jade, and occasionally accompanied her to the jade market to buy some jadeite and agate for collection.
He changed his cell phone and came to the countryside. His mother-in-law couldn't find him and she called him twenty or thirty times in a row.
Su Ling could imagine how she would be nagged when she called her mother-in-law tomorrow.
"Did she ask you where I was going?" He poked Li Feng's knee.
"Yeah." Lu Feng continued typing.
"Then how do you explain it?" Su Ling asked curiously.
"Travel, close the door." said Lu Feng.
Su Ling blinked and stared at her man's handsome profile. This lie actually had some truth to it.
His visit to the countryside was really like traveling, and he really secluded himself here, enjoying the tranquility and comfort of nature. He was filled with inspiration, and he painted three or four satisfactory paintings as if he was inspired by God.
Pursing his lips, he opened WeChat and read all the new messages. He picked out a few important people to reply to. One of them was his sister, who had sent him a greeting a week ago, but hadn't sent him any more messages since she didn't reply.
Su Ling typed with both hands, quickly replying to her sister's message.
[Su Ling: Xiao Qi, I'm sorry, I'm in the countryside recently and this phone is left at home in S City. Your elder brother just brought it to me.]
In BJ Film Academy, Su Qi was taking evening self-study when the phone in her pocket vibrated twice. She took it out and saw that it was a WeChat message from her brother. She opened it with surprise and saw the message her brother sent to her. She covered her mouth to prevent herself from shouting with joy.
It turned out that her brother left his phone at home, not ignoring her!
Because she saw her brother selling vegetables live, she curiously sent a WeChat message to ask him about it. But after waiting for a long time, her brother did not reply. She thought that her brother had severed ties with the family and ignored her. She felt very sad at the time and cried for a long time in her quilt.
She really likes her brother and doesn't want to become a stranger to him in the future.
Now seeing her brother's explanation, she sniffed and typed happily.
【Su Qi: I watched my brother’s live broadcast and bought some cucumbers and tomatoes. They were both delicious.】
【Su Ling: Haha, really? There are so many online friends that I can’t even tell you which one is you. How are you doing recently? Is your study going well? If you encounter any difficulties, just tell me.】
[Su Qi: Everything is fine, thank you brother for your concern. The film academy focuses on acting. I got an A in the monthly exam last month. The teachers all praised me for my acting talent! ]
[Su Ling: That’s great! You are worthy of being my sister! Keep it up! ]
【Su Qi: Yes, good luck to you, brother~】
[Su Ling: I will return to S City in a few days. Let's go out for dinner together to strengthen our brother-sister relationship~]
【Su Qi: Okay, looking forward to it. ^ ^】
Thinking of meeting her brother, Su Qi's lips curled up unconsciously and she felt happy. When she finished chatting and was about to put away her phone, someone in the classroom suddenly exclaimed.
"Damn it! Lin Yun has ever taken drugs?!"
These words came as a bolt from the blue, leaving the students who were doing evening self-study dumbfounded. They all took out their mobile phones and clicked on the trending searches on Weibo.
"Oh my God! It's really Lin Yun! How could this happen?"
“My house collapsed!”
"Are these photos photoshopped? This person doesn't look like Lin Yun."
"Nine out of ten celebrities have had plastic surgery. One look at Lin Yun's face shows that she has had double eyelids, canthus surgery, and chin reduction."
“My pure and innocent Master ahhhh——”
"He must have offended someone, right? Otherwise, how could his drug abuse history be exposed?"
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself!"
"Think about how many drug-hunting police officers are killed every year. Drug addicts are the worst!"
…
Su Ling was also reading Weibo.
After finishing chatting with his sister, he clicked on Weibo. Before he had time to check the comments, his attention was attracted by a forwarded Weibo post on the homepage.
#The former drug-addicted teenager has now become a cool and aloof master#
With this topic, the original blogger posted a nine-square grid picture. In the middle was a photo of Lin Yun as the master in "Twin Dragons", and the others were photos of a teenager taking ecstasy pills in a bar.
In the first photo, under dim light, the young Lin Yun has a dejected look on his face, holding a small plate filled with colorful meatballs, and has an arrogant expression.
In the second photo, Lin Yun is stuffing the meatball into his mouth.
In the third photo, Lin Yun was dancing closely with someone on the dance floor, looking intoxicated and wild.
In the fourth photo, Lin Yun is shirtless, wearing low-waisted jeans, and posing in a sexy and seductive pose.
You don't even need to click on or enlarge the remaining photos to see how crazy a person who has taken ecstasy is.
The number of comments and reposts of this blog post exceeded 500,000, shocking countless people. Marketing accounts and fans of various companies joined in to take advantage of the popularity and pushed the topic to the top of the trending searches. Lin Yun’s fans tried hard to whitewash the post, believing that someone had maliciously photoshopped the photos, but to little avail.
The blogger's second Weibo post included a video that echoed the picture. In the video, someone called the boy "Lin Yun", and Lin Yun turned around, confirming the fact that he was taking drugs.
Su Ling sat up suddenly and said in surprise: "Lin Yun actually took drugs!"
Rui Feng paused in typing and turned to look at the phone that Su Ling handed to him.
"Fans are going crazy, it's the number one trending search, didn't his company spend money to remove it?" Su Ling quickly browsed the topics. Lin Yun's audience base, which had become famous thanks to "Twin Dragons", was shattered.
"We can't retreat." said Lu Feng.
Su Ling was stunned: "You can't even withdraw money?"
Weibo hot searches are very unscrupulous. Whoever spends more money can take the lead. Most celebrities love and hate hot searches.
You can buy hype, slam, and quarrel with others by spending money. With another wave of marketing, the popularity will rise rapidly. Usually, the objects of slam and quarrel have to spend money to remove themselves if they don't want to be hung on the wall and criticized.
However, it is easy to buy but difficult to withdraw. You have to spend more money to suppress the enthusiasm.
Lin Yun's history of drug abuse was exposed. If their company's public relations were smart, they should have grasped the situation immediately, removed the trending searches, cleared the square, and had the team lead fans to control comments. As long as they did a good job, they could have handled the situation perfectly in the first place.
However, Lin Yun's hot searches could not be removed, and the photos and videos of him taking drugs were widely circulated on the Internet, leaving the team with no room to maneuver. So there was only one truth: someone was deliberately making trouble for Lin Yun.
The "money ability" of the capital behind Lin Yun is not as good as that of the people who want to deal with him. The usual means of control used in the entertainment industry are ineffective. A new traffic star is facing the situation of falling before he has laid a solid foundation.
Celebrities taking drugs is the most deadly scandal!
Anyone who cheats, acts like a big shot, is kept by someone, has promiscuous sex, etc., has a chance to be cleansed, but taking drugs will be directly banned.
"Who has such great ability to suppress Xinyu Entertainment?" Su Ling touched his chin. Xinyu Entertainment is Lin Yun's boss, one of the top two entertainment companies in China, with many artists and strong strength. Most people dare not offend it. To be able to make Xinyu Entertainment suffer, the opponent's strength should not be underestimated.
Lu Feng took his phone, opened WeChat, and played a video.
"...The man's surname is Su, the same as Su Daji... The man surnamed Su first took us to a hotel in the town, but when he heard the price was too expensive, he was reluctant to pay and insisted on taking us to a homestay in the village... The man named Su Ling was particularly charming, and the sponsor surnamed Lu was married..."
Su Ling: ...
He looked at Lin Yun in the video as if he was a lunatic.
What do people do?
A star like him actually held a grudge against them for such a trivial matter, went on a live broadcast to spread rumors and slander them, and incited fans to attempt cyberbullying!
"Haha, the threshold to enter the entertainment industry is getting lower and lower. Even a fool can become a star?" He sneered.
In a flash, he raised his hand and placed it on Li Feng's shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "Hubby, if I hadn't noticed, would you have just done it without anyone noticing?"
Lu Feng said calmly: "It's not me, it's Zhan Yang."
Su Ling pulled his earlobe. "When did it happen?"
Zhan Yang is his assistant, and he must report to his superior before doing anything. Without Lu Feng's instructions, would he dare to do such a ruthless thing?
Rufeng said: "When you are playing with cats and dogs."
Su Ling raised his eyebrows.
That was an hour ago. He was playing with his two pets in the living room downstairs and doing work on his phone in his sitting chair. Lin Yun was spreading rumors live, but Assistant Zhan's reaction speed was so fast that he dug out the other party's dark history in the shortest time and struck with precision, ruining his reputation.
Is it cruel?
Su Ling didn't think so.
If someone else was retaliated against by his rumors, the consequences would be disastrous. Extreme fans are capable of doing anything, and cyberbullying has almost become their usual method.
It was because the Lui Group was powerful that it suppressed the capital behind Lin Yun, leaving them helpless and with no room for maneuver.
We are all adults and must be responsible for our own actions.
As public figures, celebrities not only enjoy fame and fortune, but also have the responsibility and obligation to guide their fans to be positive and spread positive energy, rather than bully the weak and use their appeal to instigate fans to do illegal things.
Public opinion is a double-edged sword that hurts others and yourself. If you can't control it, you will suffer the consequences.
Zhan Yang's counterattack was clean and neat, and he took the initiative with overwhelming advantage. Although his methods were a bit rough, the effect was immediate and shocked his opponent.
The most brilliant thing about him is that the operation of the Lai Public Relations Group in the whole incident was silent. Lin Yun's fans always thought that they were the opponent's black fans, running around like headless flies, causing more troubles for their brother.
"The brain is a good thing!" Su Ling sighed and slowly called the boss of Shangchaqi.
Letting a tainted star advertise his tea plantation, does it mean he thinks he is not dying fast enough?
Qi Yue is a middle-aged uncle who doesn't like surfing the Internet and is behind in information. He received a call from Su Ling in the evening and was full of doubts. When he learned that the star he had invited at a high price had taken drugs, he was shocked and made a decisive decision to draw a clear line with this tainted star.
"...Mr. Su, thank you for your timely reminder. Our Tea Merchants Association has worked hard for more than ten years to build the reputation of Yu Lu Tea bit by bit. We must not let this kind of rubbish star endorse it and ruin our reputation."
Qi Yue hung up the phone in a hurry, urgently called on other tea merchants, and held a short online meeting. In the end, the tea merchants unanimously passed the decision to replace the celebrity endorsement.
Fifteen minutes later, there was one more topic in the top six trending searches.
#Phoenix Mountain Rain Dew Tea#
The official Weibo account of the H City Tea Merchants Association posted a message on this topic, solemnly stating that Yu Lu Tea will terminate its cooperation with Lin Yun.
Obviously, this topic was bought up temporarily and the reading volume is very low, but it did not prevent the Tea Merchants Association from expressing its position. It was the first to stand up and righteously end Lin Yun's endorsement.
Afterwards, everything seemed to have a chain reaction. Lin Yun’s endorsers took turns to be on the hot search list, and they all announced that they would end their cooperation and reserve the right to sue.
Su Ling logged into his Weibo account which he hadn't used for a long time and uploaded a video.
This is a beautiful sunrise shot he took in the tea mountains not long ago.
The misty forest slowly awakens in the morning light. A magnificent sunrise appears in the eastern sky. The dew on the leaves is crystal clear, reflecting the sunlight in a dazzling and colorful way. The morning breeze blows past, causing a large area of tea trees to rustle.
As an art student, Su Ling is naturally good at color and composition. He captured this ten-second video with a cinematic aesthetic.
He @ed the official Weibo of the Tea Merchants Association and added a message: Stop losses in time and then achieve nirvana.
Su Ling has few Weibo fans, only about 4,000 to 5,000. He usually posts only about painting, and his followers are either friends, Chinese painting masters, or some netizens who like Chinese painting. He stopped posting for more than three months, but today he suddenly posted a video and @ed the official Weibo of the Yu Lu Tea Merchants Association, leaving those who follow him confused.
[Ah? The missing people have finally returned, but I don’t quite understand what their current situation is.]
[Is Mr. Ling in seclusion recently? If you have any new works, please post them for everyone to appreciate! ]
[What a beautiful scenery, what a huge tea mountain - so, this is the origin of Phoenix Mountain Rain Dew Tea? ]
[Hey, Brother Ling, good tea should be shared! When can we meet and bring me a can? ]
There were only a few comments at first, but after Su Ling’s junior brother forwarded it, this Weibo post suddenly became popular.
[Mr. Zhang's brilliant writing: Junior brother, is this tea mountain yours? @淩云]
As a master of traditional Chinese painting with millions of fans, once the post was forwarded, it immediately sparked heated discussions. Countless people flocked to Su Ling's Weibo with various purposes, and Lin Yun's fans rushed to defend their idol.
Su Ling's brows were furrowed, limiting the comment function.
Wei Feng closed the notebook and touched his soft hair.
“It’s time to rest.”
Su Ling met his deep gaze, threw away her phone, and rushed over.
Why waste your precious time on someone who doesn't matter to you?
The two of them hugged, kissed and caressed each other passionately. When Su Ling moved, Lu Feng stopped abruptly, patted his back and pulled the quilt.
"sleep."
"You don't want it?" Su Ling asked unhappily, panting.
Lu Feng gently kissed his forehead. "You've been busy all day, take a good rest."
Su Ling poked his arm. Who bought twenty boxes of condoms at the supermarket? And claimed to use ten a day? But they put all the condoms in the drawer of the bedside table, and they just slept under the quilt?
He yawned, feeling really tired. He rubbed the quilt, crossed his legs, hugged the man and closed his eyes.
Lu Feng let him hold him. Although the temperature in the room was comfortable, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. It was not until Su Ling fell asleep in his arms that his tense body relaxed. He gently moved his legs and hands, got out of bed, went to the bathroom, and took a cold shower.
In the B&B, Lin Yun looked like he had been pulled out of the water. He was drenched in sweat, his face was pale, his lips were blue, and his skinny body was shaking like a sieve, and he shivered uncontrollably.
How could this happen?
How could this happen?
He kept asking questions.
He was just doing a live broadcast, why did his dark history get exposed?
After he became famous, the company had long since helped him erase his past absurdities. Many paparazzi tried to dig up dirt on him, but all failed! But today, his drug-taking photos and videos are clearly on the hot searches, and even with money, they can’t be removed. The company’s team is helpless!
Finished!
He's finished!
His career was ruined!
Du Ya kept making phone calls, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
"Mr. Li, you have to think of a way. We must clean up the online issues! Lin Yun still has commercial value. We can't just give up like this! I know... I know drug abuse is very serious, but... as long as we use some tricks, we can definitely cover it up. Netizens are forgetful and it will be quiet in a few days... What? The other party's attitude is very tough? What should we do?"
Du Ya's heart became heavier and heavier. Finally, she said, "...Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, she looked at the frightened Lin Yun, and was so angry that she couldn't control herself and smashed the phone on him.
"How many times have I told you to control your temper, to be more humble the more famous you are, and to keep up appearances, but why didn't you listen? Do you know who you have offended? The president of the Lai Group and his partner! Spreading rumors live and encouraging fans to cyberbully? Are you sick in the brain? Ah!"
Du Ya was so angry that her face turned red and her voice was shrill, but the soundproofing in the homestay was poor and people in other rooms could hear it.
In the next room, the director and several staff members smoked silently, listening to Du Ya's scolding, feeling both happy and depressed.
The author has something to say: This cannon fodder is not the main point, so it will be dealt with quickly. The main point is that some things will be introduced later. Well, I will keep it a secret for now~
