Chapter 87 Sad "Qiao Zheng, I'm a little sad."
At 10:30 AM, Liu Miaoyan opened his sleepy eyes and immediately saw the poster on the wall. He once again marveled at the stunning beauty of his idol. His sleepiness faded away, and he habitually smiled and waved at the poster: "Xiao Qiao~ Good morning~"
With his fingers clasped behind his head, Liu Miaoyan gently turned his head to look around at the posters on the wall of the room.
Whether it's Qiao Zhizheng's hit movies or her minor roles, Liu Miaoyan has collected them all and plastered them all around his room. Every day, opening his eyes is a visual feast, allowing him to admire different versions of Qiao Zhizheng: the gentle yet strong Liu Runiang, the pure-eyed Flower Fairy, the seemingly materialistic but actually sober Xu Miao, the lonely Fang Zhixia amidst the applause and stage lights, the radiant Fang Zhixia beside a flock of flamingos, and Jiang Hao, whose eyes seem to be falling into an endless abyss...
Liu Miaoyan said with regret when chatting with friends: "Our Xiao Qiao has a very wide acting range and can play all kinds of dramas. It's a pity that we haven't seen her in a school drama. I really want to see her school makeup~"
My friend is also a fan of stars. She is not a fan of the same star as Liu Miaoyan, but she has seen all the movies starring Qiao Zhizheng and has a good impression of her. She can barely be considered a casual fan.
A friend told Liu Miaoyan, "From my perspective as an outsider, Qiao Zhizheng's star shouldn't be in school dramas anymore. These days, most school dramas have simplistic storylines and lack any innovation. Unless she's approached with a particularly compelling and memorable script, the roles she's taken on lately are all complex and profound, or films with deep stories. My intuition suggests she's not particularly interested in school dramas."
Liu Miaoyan sighed deeply, and her friend comforted her, saying that maybe one day Qiao Zhizheng would act in a movie with brief memories, and there would be clips of youthful campus scenes.
Liu Miaoyan felt that her friend's words made sense, and she could only try to find a way to cheer herself up and think along the lines of what she said.
Liu Miaoyan picked up his phone, unlocked the screen, and subconsciously clicked on Weibo. At first glance, he saw a Weibo post by a blogger he followed about #乔志筝《五月的风》#, with a picture of Qiao Zhizheng wearing a college uniform.
Liu Miaoyan’s first reaction: Is Xiao Qiao acting in a school play?
Liu Miaoyan clicked on the picture and felt something was not right.
Liu Miaoyan exited the picture and searched for "May Wind", which brought up a long list of praising blog posts.
Liu Miaoyan watched them one by one and concluded that "May Wind" was Qiao Zhizheng's first drama and also the youth campus drama that Liu Miaoyan had always dreamed of. Qiao Zhizheng played the second female role with a relatively important role. At the beginning, due to the director's suppression, Qiao Zhizheng's role was deleted. This year, the platform responsible for the drama re-edited it and brought it up again.
Many people in the comment section felt sorry for Qiao Zhizheng and scolded the director.
Liu Miaoyan took a look and found that the comments were mostly the same.
This kind of one-sided praise, the enthusiasm is like... a water army?!
Liu Miaoyan thought, no, it shouldn’t be that bad.
"Hey! Let me see Xiao Qiao's school makeup~"
Liu Miaoyan looked for a while and was immersed in Qiao Zhizheng's beauty.
"The Wind in May" has few episodes and is not a long show. People who have watched the show before compared the current "The Wind in May" with the previous one and came to the conclusion that with the addition of Qiao Zhizheng's role, the story line has become reasonable, and there is no longer an inexplicably angry male protagonist and a shy female protagonist.
After watching the film, fans of Tian Yuntian, who played the male lead, Li Jutao, who played the female lead, and Qiao Zhizheng criticized the bald director for wasting the actors' hard work.
The bald director posted a video on Weibo, apologizing to netizens with a crying image.
No one paid attention to this Weibo post at first, but after a video of a fight between the bald director and Qiao Zhizheng was leaked, countless suspicions came like snowflakes.
"Qiao Zhizheng has always been trying to create a young lady persona, but now it's gone wrong. She looks like a little shrew."
"I have a friend who was Qiao Zhizheng's high school classmate. He said Qiao Zhizheng was a bully in school and often bullied her classmates."
"The director was beaten so badly~"
"With her skills, it's no wonder she's wanted for martial arts movies. She's such a good fighter."
"No wonder the director deleted her scenes. She even beat him up like that. If the director didn't delete her scenes, whose scenes would he delete?"
"Evil will always be punished by evil. I used to think she was some kind of fairy who emerged from the mud without being stained, but in the end, this is what happened."
"I'm not a fan anymore."
…
Liu Miaoyan felt that this development was very strange. When the revised version of "May Wind" was first broadcast, it was praised one-sidedly and attracted a large number of passers-by fans, but now it is criticized one-sidedly.
Most of those who unfollowed were casual fans who were attracted by the praise in the press release.
Liu Miaoyan joined the fan group. Most of the fans in this group have been fans for more than a year - if they can be considered old fans, Qiao Zhizheng has only been in the industry for more than two years.
The fan group is relatively calm. Only a few fans were brainwashed by the promotional press releases and left the fan group. The group owner and administrator are comforting the fans.
A keen fan revealed his discovery:
"It's obvious that someone is targeting Xiao Qiao."
"My rebuttal to their comments was deleted shortly after it was posted."
"It has a strong smell of water army."
"Someone must have come down to guide them."
…
Liu Miaoyan tried to post a rebuttal comment under Qiao Zhizheng's blog post, but as the fan group said, it was deleted shortly after it was posted. With a quick scroll, all that was left were comments cursing Qiao Zhizheng.
Liu Miaoyan clicked on Qiao Zhizheng’s Weibo, but there was no response.
I clicked into the official Weibo of Hengxing Entertainment, but there was no movement.
This... are you really going to just let the rumors fly and ignore them?
The fans were anxious, and so was Hengxing Entertainment. As one of the most popular artists in Hengxing Entertainment, Qiao Zhizheng was given special attention by the public relations department. The director went to ask Lou Heng for instructions. In Lou Heng's office, he saw that Qiao Zhizheng and the boss Lou Heng did not seem anxious at all. The two of them were sitting opposite each other, drinking tea with the aroma of tea between them.
Seeing the public relations director, Lou Heng even raised his hand and asked her to come over and sit for a while and have a cup of tea together.
Seeing that neither of them was in a hurry, the public relations director's impatient heart calmed down involuntarily in the clear fragrance of tea. She sat at the table, drinking tea sip by sip, looking at Lou Heng, then at Qiao Zhizheng, waiting for one of them to speak first and tell her what to do next.
After waiting for a long time, neither of them said a word.
The PR director waited and waited, his heart, which had calmed down a bit, began to flutter again. He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Lou, online public opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of Qiao Zhizheng. Do you have any other plans now?"
Lou Heng looked at Qiao Zhizheng when he heard this. Qiao Zhizheng noticed the gaze on him and smiled confidently. Lou Heng smiled knowingly and raised his hand to take a sip of tea slowly. "No rush, let the bullet fly for a while."
Past experience has shown that when a cockroach appears in the house, there are already countless cockroaches in the invisible corners. Even if you kill the visible one, there are still countless more hiding in the dark.
Lou Heng suggested that Qiao Zhizheng take advantage of this opportunity and not rush to clarify. Instead, he should let as many demons and monsters hiding in the shadows as possible show up, and wait for the Xu family to use their remaining tricks, or see what other things that might threaten Qiao Zhizheng are in the hands of those opponents who want to take advantage of the chaos to attack Qiao Zhizheng.
Qiao Zhizheng agreed, and now the situation is that the emperor is not anxious but the eunuchs are.
The PR director was silent for a moment. Seeing Lou Heng and Qiao Zhizheng's confident victory, he had a rough idea in mind. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'll tell my subordinates to wait and see what happens. Don't intervene yet. Record all the malicious posts and keep them as evidence."
Lou Heng looked at her with approval. Compared to the previous one who just ate and did no real work, the newly appointed public relations director was obviously more capable. She already knew what she should do without Lou Heng saying much.
"The elite talents recruited by the Hengxing Legal Department have never had the opportunity to demonstrate their full potential. This is a perfect opportunity for the outside world to see the capabilities of our Hengxing Legal Department."
After Lou Heng's nearly one year of reorganization of Hengxing Entertainment, through the survival of the fittest and elimination of the false and retention of the true, Hengxing Entertainment is no longer as uneven as it was at the beginning, but is now flourishing overall.
As Lou Heng expected, seeing that Qiao Zhizheng and Hengxing Entertainment did not respond, the black posts became increasingly arrogant, with the black purpose of "taking advantage of her illness to kill her", and various types of black posts emerged one after another.
"What goes with what goes with what goes with what, Qiao Zheng seems to have started acting before she even graduated from junior high. Anyone can get into the entertainment industry."
"As someone who slipped through the net of nine years of compulsory education, it's no wonder he's hanging out with a little rascal like Qiao Zhizheng. It's true that two people can't sleep together in the same bed."
"Do you know the director of 'The Wind in May'? A while ago, Qiao Zhizheng acted like a big shot and beat him up, but he ended up apologizing. Tsk~ It's true that fame feeds people, and it's become a thing of the past."
"Have you seen the Reuters footage of 'Another Me'? Qiao Zheng has a gloomy face all day long, as if someone owes her something."
"Qiao Zheng only got two film roles thanks to Qiao Zhizheng's popularity. I really despise people like this who live off their money."
"The crew of 'Lonely Boat' had a dinner party, and Qiao Zhizheng even cursed at the male lead's sister."
"I have a video of Qiao Zhizheng swearing. Who wants to watch it? The content is: I think the whole world likes my treasure, and I call the eldest daughter of the Xu family shameless."
"Okay, okay~ Act like a big shot~ Piao Piao Piao~"
“I saw her build a tall building, I saw her entertain guests, and I saw her building collapse.”①
"Hilarious! Does Qiao Zhizheng really think she's the best in the world? Actually, no one cares except herself."
"A collection of Qiao Zhizheng's negative news. Don't miss it if you pass by."
"Being fan of Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng was the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life."
"Can these two just pack up and get out of the entertainment industry?"
…
Facts have proved that being a star in the spotlight requires a strong heart. When someone loves you, anything is fine with you. When someone doesn't love you, your existence is a mistake.
Fortunately, Qiao Zhizheng was well prepared, but when she saw those fans who used to check in every day and say they loved her, loved her and only loved her posting bad comments on Weibo, Qiao Zhizheng felt depressed. A layer of heavy mist fell in her eyes. She touched her chest, where a cloud of medium size had gathered, which could neither go down nor come up.
"Qiao Zheng, I'm a little sad."
