Song Beiting's new drama has just aired and is currently very popular, so in less than half an hour, three of the top ten trending topics on Weibo were about him.
Initially, public opinion was not optimistic. Some people took a video clip of Song Zhiqiang at Tsinghua and Peking Universities and spread it wildly with sensational headlines such as "ungrateful" and "a celebrity abandoned his father after becoming famous".
Many marketing accounts have added fuel to the fire, implying that Song Beiting has an improper relationship with Ning Nanqing, the chairman of Ning's Group, and also revealing that he is a so-called "resource star" who debuted with various luxury brand endorsements and S+ film and television resources.
But soon, public opinion online began to reverse.
[@The Third Snowflake] I was Song Beiting's junior high school classmate, and we lived very close to each other. His dad was an alcoholic who would beat him whenever he drank. Once, during a math competition, his dad burned all his books, but he still managed to borrow materials from me to study and ended up winning first prize.
[@Shiganlan] I was his high school teacher. Beiting was an excellent student. He earned his own tuition and living expenses. He worked summer jobs and weekend jobs. His grades were always excellent, and he received scholarships every year. In the three years of high school, I never saw his father come to the school once.
[@Aunt Zhang from everyone] Xiao Song has been a sensible child since he was little. His mother died in a car accident when he was young, and his father used the compensation money to go drinking. When he was little, he would eat at one of our neighbors' houses. His father was a heartless man who didn't raise his child properly.
Many accounts claiming to be Song Beiting's classmates, neighbors, and teachers appeared, revealing his experiences of being abused by his father since childhood and how he earned his own money to go to school as an adult, which quickly reversed public opinion.
In fact, Nan Qing had already asked Lin Yan to prepare public relations regarding this matter. Once he became famous, his identity would be exposed sooner or later. Even if Song Zhiqiang didn't cause trouble himself, he was easily used as a tool to smear others.
As for Song Zhiqiang, he was directly placed in a private nursing home with a superior environment, complete facilities, and a professional nursing team providing 24-hour care.
Of course, it also ensured that he could not access any media or the internet. The nursing home's confidentiality agreement included a sum of money sufficient to ensure his financial security for the rest of his life.
This controversy, ironically, brought Song Beiting and his new drama more attention and popularity. As for the public opinion about their relationship, there was neither a response nor any plan to remove the trending topic; it was simply left hanging, allowing onlookers to discuss it.
The following year, Song Beiting filmed another movie and a TV series. On his 22nd birthday, Nan Qing pulled him out of the film crew.
The day after my birthday.
After breakfast, Nanqing took the person to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Looking at the words "Civil Affairs Bureau," Song Beiting was somewhat dazed.
Nan Qing stood on the steps, turned around and looked at Song Beiting, who was standing there in a daze: "What are you daydreaming about? Can't you read? Or are you unwilling?"
Song Beiting snapped out of his daze and hurriedly said, "No, I'm willing, but what about the household registration book?"
Nan Qing took out two household registration books from her bag and waved them in front of him: "Let's go."
Song Beiting stared at the two deep red booklets, his heart skipped a beat, he reached out and took them, opened them and immediately felt at ease.
Song Beiting closed the household registration book, grabbed her hand that was hanging in the air, his palm burning hot. He suddenly tightened his grip and pulled her inside, his steps hurried and chaotic, as if afraid she would change her mind.
Fill out a form, take a photo, and take an oath.
His anxiety finally subsided when the staff handed him the two red certificates.
He had been worried that something unexpected might happen, or that Nanqing might suddenly change her mind.
The two returned to the car, and Song Beiting carefully opened the marriage certificate, his fingertips lightly tracing the photo of the two of them.
In the group photo, Nan Qing had a bright smile on her face, while he looked a little silly.
Nan Qing leaned over, took out her phone, and took a picture of the two marriage certificates. Song Beiting watched her edit the photo and send it.
[@NingNanqingV: It's legal now. @SongBeiting]
Watching her skillful operation, Song Beiting also took out his phone, and the two intertwined their fingers.
Compared to her decisiveness, he revised and edited for a while before solemnly pressing the send button.
[@SongBeitingV: I am so fortunate. @NingNanqing]
The moment the Weibo post was published, the comment sections for the two people exploded.
[Holy crap, really?! ...
[Today is not April Fool's Day!!!]
[The two are constantly trending on social media for their rumored relationship, but they never respond. I thought there was something fishy going on, but is it really true?]
[Did Song Beiting save the galaxy in his past life? This food is amazing!!]
[Isn't this just a live-action version of "The Domineering CEO Falls in Love with Me"?]
[So... today is Song Beiting's first day of turning 22, and then the two of them immediately went to get their marriage certificate? I can tell from their eyes, it's true love.]
Please address her as "Mrs. Ning" from now on.
[Aaaaaah, I knew they were having an affair!]
[Haha, confirmed he's a gigolo. He hooked up with Ning Nanqing, this rich and beautiful woman, and avoided thirty years of hard work.]
[What are you being sarcastic about? You're trying to climb the social ladder, but would they even consider you?]
......
Opinions about the couple vary online. Some are shipping them as a couple, while others say that their social statuses are too different and it's hard for the marriage to last. Some accounts are even waiting for their divorce to happen.
But we waited and waited.
Their relationship grew stronger.
Under Nan Qing's leadership, the Ning Group had long become the privately owned enterprise with the highest market value in China.
Song Beiting, before he turned thirty, had already won numerous awards and become an international film star.
On his deathbed, looking at the white-haired Song Beiting, Nanqing's last words were:
"Remember, I am strong enough."
