Su Chang hadn't expected Sun Hao to snatch his resources. The age difference between them might not have mattered much for variety shows, but the second male lead he'd auditioned for was a young, sunny, and handsome guy.
No matter how well Sun Hao takes care of himself, he is already forty years old this year, not to mention the scandal that caused a sensation last year.
How could such a person who was hammered to the core of the earth actually get resources to become popular again?
Su Chang found it unbelievable, so he forgot to switch back to the voiceover and said, "Is it really him? How could he? Could he have reconciled with his ex-wife?"
"I haven't heard of it. I'll go and ask around. It's already unpleasant enough that you were ripped off, but if it was really that scumbag Sun Hao who got it, that's just disgusting, disgusting beyond belief." The agent never expected that this thing could even touch them. With that, he angrily went to investigate.
Lin Wan is a 2D girl who never lags behind in eating melons. Of course, she thinks of Sun Hao’s scandal last year.
"Such a scumbag can replace Ah Chang, I really am..." Seeing her boyfriend was there, Lin Wan suppressed the desire to swear.
Little did he know, Su Chang was already cursing in his heart. He also found the Arabian Nights extremely strange.
While the entertainment industry has its ups and downs, as long as you don't cross the red line—drug abuse, criminal offenses—you're guaranteed opportunities. Some become overnight stars, while others flop repeatedly. But we can't ignore the Basic Law.
Sun Hao is old, not handsome, his backstage support has been withdrawn, and he has offended his traffic and capital brothers. It can be said that he is deserted by everyone. Besides, his acting skills are nothing special. He is not extremely good, but just average, and he can occasionally perform brilliantly once or twice.
But now there are so many talented young people with good looks, and even Sun Hao can turn things around and get good resources.
Su Chang really has a magical feeling about the world.
Is this a satire on the entertainment industry, or a satire on the audience's aesthetic taste?
"Have a cup of tea first." Lu Cijiu poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him. Lin Wan saw her boyfriend was stunned and felt a little distressed. She sat with her boyfriend in a daze, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, Su Chang still couldn't figure it out. "If any male artist of the same age snatched my spot, I would be upset, but not this badly. Why is it Sun Hao? Am I not even as good as Sun Hao?"
This is getting into a dead end.
"Achang, you are very good. Maybe the guy named Sun is doing something else." Lin Wan comforted.
Lu Cijiu looked up Sun Hao on the Internet. There were real-time users on Weibo saying that Sun Hao was in good shape after his comeback. Although they knew he was a scumbag, he looked so handsome and suave. If he were her, he wouldn't like to stay with his ex because her appearance was too ugly.
What's the point of having values based on appearance? Sun Hao's Reuters photos are really delicious.
He is obviously middle-aged, but the recent photos are really vivid. The retro handsomeness that has been accumulated over the years reminds her of a male star in white who was very popular in Hong Kong in the 1970s and 1980s.
…
Lu Bijiu:???
After watching it, I don’t even know if the Sun Hao he met is the same Sun Hao that netizens were talking about.
Sun Hao's fame in the circle is inseparable from the support of his ex-wife. Of course, his appearance is better than that of ordinary people, but it is too much to praise him as a handsome man. Lu Cijiu has seen Sun Hao's private appearance before. Judging from his appearance alone, he is just a good-looking uncle.
Then he searched for Sun Hao's Reuters photos.
The photos that popped up were candid shots taken at the airport, as well as a short video. No matter from which angle you look at it, Sun Hao's facial features don't seem to have changed much, but he looks more "refined" and handsome.
Her skin has become fairer and smoother, and her figure is casual and elegant. The way she talks to fans and reporters in the video does not look like the embarrassed look she had during the scandal when she was blocked by reporters and paparazzi and could not get out. She has a hint of nobility.
Completely different people.
"This Sun Hao is quite interesting." Lu Cijiu knocked on the table and saw Lin Wan and Su Chang looking over. "When we were filming 'Shock', I read his face. He didn't become a huge star, but instead, he was at the bottom of his career, mired in scandals and unable to recover. He's completely cut off from the entertainment industry."
"Then why did he suddenly?" Su Chang asked puzzledly.
Lu Cijiu shook his head. "I don't know what he did. I only know that you should be yourself and not compare yourself to others. You have a future as a star."
Although not the most brilliant one, he is also a person with star luck.
Su Chang was a little bit incredulous, "Really, Master Lu?"
"Just be yourself." Lu Cijiu gave the young man some chicken soup, nodded and said, "Don't forget your heart, make the right choices, be open and honest."
Lin Wan's male friend is quite upright. It's not worth it if he loses his temper just because Sun Hao intercepted her.
"A Chang, you must believe in Master Lu. Master Lu is very accurate. Let's go our own way and don't care about others." Lin Wan took her boyfriend's arm and said, "I believe in you. You can do it. You will definitely shine."
Su Chang slowly let out the frustration in his heart, and then nodded solemnly in agreement.
After buying some talismans to help their career, Lin Wan and her boyfriend left.
Lu Cijiu sat on the jade bed, gossiping while secretly eating the children's candy. He was afraid that the children's teeth would be damaged by too much candy, so he ate a few of the candies Lin Wan had brought today, and they made a crunching sound when he bit them.
There isn't much news about Sun Hao on Weibo, and the comments are all one-sided. Some people click in to scold him, only to find that Sun Hao has changed a lot / they are attracted by his looks / he is so unique / his ex-wife probably wanted to destroy him because she couldn't get him / it's Sun Hao's fault for being so good-looking.
There are also those who firmly criticize Sun Hao, and those who publicize Sun Hao's negative information, but the internet has a memory of only three days. Last year, the whole network was against him, and now some people say that I don't care if he cheated, I'm not a fan of celebrities, I just look at his looks and it's nothing.
There are also people saying that you were hiding under the bed of a married couple, and you knew everything so well. Maybe it was because Sun Hao's ex-wife was too powerful, and Sun Hao wanted to divorce this bitch, so you were smeared. As for the female celebrity who came forward to cheat, she was just an 18-tier celebrity trying to get attention.
Anyway, it looks quite infuriating.
Lu Cijiu doesn’t like Weibo very much because some of the comments there are really stupid and idiotic.
Of course there are also lovely fans and netizens.
A few days later, Lin Wan called to thank him, saying that her boyfriend's company had helped him get a new drama. He hadn't been approached before because of a scheduling conflict, but now he had been snatched up, and by chance, he had been approached. Although he was the third male lead in this drama, it was a big IP, and her boyfriend had already joined the crew.
It is said that career is going very smoothly.
This is also because Su Chang himself has a star path, and he may be in a slump for a while. With the blessing of the talisman paper, his recovery speed will be slightly faster. It mainly depends on Su Chang's own ability. If his ability is not up to standard, the talisman paper will not help him become popular.
"I know everything. It's just like the peach blossom charm. But it's great. He has regained his confidence now. I think this is very important..." Lin Wan said a few more words on the phone and ended the call.
Sun Hao had been in the news more and more over the past few days, appearing on trending searches several times. Even those who didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry knew that he had joined the crew of a reality show and was filming the first episode. This time, there would be a live broadcast.
Sun Hao is controversial, so the program team specifically created topics to talk about Sun Hao.
It's so annoying.
Those who don't like him think that Sun Hao is like a cockroach that can't be killed and keeps jumping in front of him all day long. Some who don't care say that Sun Hao has changed a lot and every time he appears on camera, he looks better than the last...
In the reality show live editing video, Sun Hao's personal shots are indeed quite outstanding. Lu Cijiu watched for a while and asked, "Do you think Sun Hao is becoming more and more eye-catching?"
Gong Xichao glanced at her and said with disdain, "What's so good about this ugly thing?" Then he said seriously, "Lu Cijiu, you didn't even look at me when I was right in front of you, but you've been staring at this ugly face for almost a long time."
"...Don't be jealous yet. I'm not the type to be blinded by Sun Hao. Who could be as pretty and handsome as Brother Gong? He's not only pretty, but also powerful and of noble descent." The latter was what Gong Xichao boasted about at the time. Lu Cijiu brought it out and laughed.
Gong Xichao's ears turned slightly red, but he said calmly, "Of course."
Changing the subject, Lu Cijiu returned to the question he was about to ask, "There's something strange about Sun Hao. Do you think he's a lost succubus from the underworld?"
It’s no wonder he made that association. Sun Hao had changed so much, like two different people.
Gong Xichao: "It's not that simple. We'll know once we find him."
The two of them got down to work. Lu Cijiu found out where Sun Hao was recording the variety show. Since the production team had a live broadcast every day, it was easy to find. In a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, Sun Hao wore a traditional costume and a fan, interacting with passers-by to complete tasks. The barrage of comments was full of "Ahhh, so handsome! The traditional costume is amazing! I can wait for the comments."
Lu Cijiu turned off the live broadcast and said hello to Hu Sanniang. It was Saturday, Gong Xichao didn't go to work, and Xiaohong didn't work overtime. He and Chengge stayed at the house early in the morning. At noon, Xiaohong came out and brought in the food.
Xiaohong looked very satisfied and seemed to be in a good mood at the time.
You can tell at a glance that two people are playing games inside!
Lu Cijiu and Gong Xichao arrived at the ancient town of Jiangnan in an instant. The town was not seriously commercialized and was relatively remote. There were craftsmen, intangible cultural heritage techniques, etc. The village was interspersed with rivers, and there was a bit of tranquility in the ancient style.
The entire village was closed for filming.
It was no problem for the two of them. After entering the village, they found Sun Hao's location from the live broadcast. The two were invisible. Sun Hao was wearing ancient costumes and was playing interactive games, which made a female star next to him laugh and say, "Brother Sun is so awesome."
"You were the one who shouted "Come on!"
...Lu Cijiu is hard to describe, such a cheesy routine. However, in real life, Sun Hao really gives people a warm and friendly feeling, as if he is bathed in spring breeze. His whole body seems to be radiating light, his eyes are clear, and he looks very upright. When he looks at the passerby actress and speaks, there is a sense of reliability and that he is a good person.
Lu Cijiu didn't believe that a person could change so much. Personality and temperament can indeed be changed through hard work, but he judged people by their facial features and temperament. The Sun Hao in front of him actually had a destiny of becoming a popular star.
It's only been a few months.
"How is it?" Lu Cijiu turned around and asked.
Gong Xichao said calmly, "There is a problem."
"Is it really a succubus? Where is it? In Sun Hao's body?"
"No." Gong Xichao pointed at Sun Hao through the air with one hand. There was a small golden dot on Sun Hao's white shoulder. It was very small. If Lu Cijiu hadn't been paying attention to Gong Xichao's gestures all the time, he wouldn't have seen it.
Sun Hao and the actress over there haven't noticed it yet.
"Watch the show." Gong Xichao said.
Lu Cijiu stopped asking questions. As Gong Xichao finished speaking, the little gold dot on Sun Hao's shoulder burned like a spark. The actress saw Sun Hao's shoulder on fire and smoke and quickly said, "Brother Sun, your shoulder is on fire."
Sun Hao's smile froze, and he subconsciously turned his head to look. Sure enough, he saw it. He fanned himself twice, and the small flames died. The production staff panicked and rushed over to ask if Mr. Sun was okay and if he was injured. Sun Hao smiled and said, "Nothing's wrong. I guess something got on my clothes. Thankfully, the fire was put out quickly."
The comments were all saying that the clothes suddenly caught fire and they were shocked. The production team should be more careful. What if it really turned out to be a ***? Sun Haoren is pretty good. He didn't lose his temper with the production team even at such a time. He seems to be a really nice person in private. The previous negative information was just hearsay and mindless blindly followed the trend, right?
Lu Cijiu frowned as he looked at Sun Hao who was changing his clothes.
After the fire, he could not see clearly on Sun Hao's body and could only see the fate of "being very popular for a while". Suddenly, it was like the clouds were cleared and the fate of being very popular for a while was revealed - death.
Sun Hao is dying.
It's like burning the last carnival of life.
"It was the succubus who did it." Gong Xichao was certain. "That thing is very cunning and won't show up. It made a deal with Sun Hao."
"Then let's beat up Sun Hao and ask him?"
Gong Xichao said, "Sun Hao doesn't know." Then he thought, "But a beating won't hurt. Let's go."
So the two of them followed Sun Hao into the changing room. Sun Hao felt a darkness in front of his eyes, as if he was put in a sack. Fist-sized raindrops fell down. Soon he was crying for his parents. There was no trace of the elegant and noble young man at all.
Lu Cijiu asked many times, who Sun Hao made the deal with, and who the succubus was.
Sun Hao was confused and really had no idea.
It seems Gong Xichao was right. The staff outside heard the commotion and asked Teacher Sun what was wrong. When they pushed the door open, Sun Hao was lying on the ground, filthy and bruised. How could they continue recording?
So I had to interrupt and say that Teacher Sun Hao suddenly felt unwell and was sent to the hospital.
Lu Cijiu and Gong Xichao returned to the shelter. Ever since Gong Xichao's little golden dot burned Sun Hao, Lu Cijiu could now see clearly what had been covering Sun Hao.
Sun Hao's face turned redder and redder, and the aura of death on his face became thicker and thicker.
On Weibo and various platforms, news about Sun Hao has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Only a small number of people are still digging into Sun Hao's past black spots, reminding everyone that he is a scumbag and why netizens' values have suddenly become so unpleasant.
Most of them are praising and bragging about Sun Hao. The hype about Sun Hao's recent variety show videos and the news that Sun Hao joined the crew is huge, as if Sun Hao has become a top star. At the age of 40, he has turned from a black person on the entire network to a top star. This is simply an incredible miracle.
Many marketing accounts were praising him, and passersby came out to praise Sun Hao with genuine feelings.
Su Chang was also mentioned, saying that the variety show and crew originally belonged to Su Chang, but later the director had a keen eye for talent and saw Sun Hao's talent, so he chose Sun Hao. Facts have proved that the director has outstanding vision, and Sun Hao is a hundred times better than Su Chang. Su Chang's eye-catching acting skills are blah blah.
Even worse, he's dragging down Dou Qinglan. Dou Qinglan only composes a few songs. If it weren't for his big brother, the CEO, how could he have become so popular? He even criticized Sun Hao before. Sun Hao is still a senior, no matter how good he is. Dou Qinglan has a bad character and doesn't respect seniors.
Dou Qinglan was about to vomit blood at that time.
What kind of senior is Sun Hao? You love being his grandson so much, you should just enjoy it all.
Lin Wan had been furious lately. How had this stinking old man become so popular? Why was everyone acting like they had lost their memory? She stood up for her boyfriend, but thankfully, he was already filming a movie and wouldn't be hearing these comments from the outside world.
Dou Qinglan's fans are very powerful. It would be strange if they could bear that their kids were being bullied by an old man with a bad character. Just when they were about to roll up their sleeves and fight with the fans of Sun Hao, the shameless old man, they received a message from Dou Qinglan Studio.
No response, no eye contact, just quiet and no microphone.
Some fans were very angry and thought the studio was being cowardly, but the big fans all respected and followed the studio's arrangements.
Zaizai must have his own reasons. He is too lazy to fight with that old man Sun Hao.
Sun Hao fans punched and kicked artists who had previously taken advantage of their situation. Some of these people would fight, while others remained silent. Sun Hao fans were so arrogant that they went to Lu Cijiu's Weibo to mock the safety instructor in "Shocking" for his sarcastic remarks that their brother would never become famous.
[Hahahaha, let's see the face of the liar, saying that our brother Hao can't be popular, doesn't it hurt? ]
Our brother has become more popular than ever, and I'm wondering if he's angry.
Haoge has joined the crew of a film directed by Director X. He's been scheduled to film until next year. He's saying he won't be famous and has no connection to the entertainment industry. I'm going to give you a slap in the face today.
Dou Qinglan sat in the shelter eating a melon—a creamy watermelon. Watermelons weren't in season yet, so they'd bought greenhouse-grown ones, which were still quite sweet. If you paid the right amount, the food would be delicious.
The watermelon doesn't have any seeds.
Dou Qinglan ate two bites, then fiddled with his phone with his other hand. He angrily said, "Brother Lu, someone's come to your door and slapped you in the face, and you're just going to let it go? Sun Hao has some crazy fans, but I'm not broke! I'll hire some online trolls to smear him to death. Why should you give in?"
"Because he's dying." Lu Cijiu said calmly.
Dou Qinglan was so shocked that his melon almost dropped. He believed what Lu Ge said, but in the video of Sun Hao's interview today, he looked energetic and walked with a breeze. How could he be dead?
"Car accident? Or terminal illness?"
Lu Cijiu also caught a glimpse of it. Dou Qinglan couldn't see it, but he saw it. Sun Hao's death was approaching.
So he posted a Weibo: When I retired from the entertainment industry, I still had a life, but I didn’t have the life of fame. There is a price to pay for changing your fate.
Dou Qinglan couldn't help but forward it: Some people became famous, but they are also gone.
Afterward, I uninstalled Weibo, feeling elated. I let those Sun Hao fans rage helplessly. The studio called Dou Qinglan and said, "If you want to leave, organize everyone, don't do it alone." What does that mean? Do you still want fans? Everyone's been holding back for too long.
Seeing Sun Haofen jumping around makes me really want to beat him up.
At his age, with his eldest child already in middle school, these fans still call Sun Hao "brother". The word "brother" is simply disgusting. The enemy fans used to call their idol "brother", but now they have changed their name. It's disgusting.
The online furor had nothing to do with the shelter. Dou Qinglan had been unemployed recently, and the online commotion had annoyed him enough to come here for a vacation. After finishing his watermelon, Dou Qinglan picked up his hoe and went to plant some vegetables, saying, "I've got an idea. I want to write a song about cabbage, called Dabai."
"...As long as you're happy."
Lu Cijiu also uninstalled his Weibo account. However, several VIP members on WeChat asked him if he wanted to help support the group. He said no, no need to intervene, and thanked everyone.
Then I saw Wu Gao automatically typing for a long time and then deleting it, as if he was troubled by something.
But in the end, nothing was posted.
Lu Cijiu thought about it and realized that if an adult wrote and deleted something but didn't send it, it meant that Wu Gao hadn't decided to say it yet. He didn't need to rush to ask.
Wu family villa.
Wu Gao put down his phone, sighed, and frowned. Wu Sansheng came down and saw that his father was still at home. He didn't go to work today. "Dad, you don't feel well either? Did I pass on my cold yesterday to you?"
"No. Your father is in good health. But has your fever subsided?" Wu Gao looked at his son coming down with concern in his eyes.
Wu Sansheng said, "I feel much better now. I have to go to class after dinner."
It's still chilly in the spring, and my son caught a cold and had a high fever last night, so he's staying home to rest today. Wu Gao wants his son to stay home for a few more days to recuperate, so he doesn't have to rush to school. He's worried about his son's studies being delayed, so he might as well hire a tutor.
"Studying at home feels different from studying in class. Everyone is studying, so I have to keep up. I also want to work harder so that I can study in an atmosphere where I won't be distracted. I'm not a person with strong willpower. Dad, I finally made up my mind to change for the better. You can't hold me back." Wu Sansheng said casually while shouting that he was hungry.
The aunt at home prepared lunch, a light clay pot porridge and side dishes.
Wu Gao wasn't angry either. He patted his son's shoulder and said, "You've made it big. You're my son, Wu Gao. You're right. After dinner, have the driver take you to school while your dad goes to the company."
After dinner, the father and son went to school one and the other to the company.
There was a document on the back seat, but Wu Gao wasn't reading it. He called his secretary and said, "Notify the government. Construction over there has been suspended."
"But boss, the land over there is so big. If we stop construction, we will at least have to pay compensation--"
"I wonder how much I'll lose from the projects I'm handling? The Wu family isn't going to go bankrupt over this. Inform the government. I've made my decision."
After Wu Gao finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if the heavy pressure had been alleviated.
He didn't know that because of a single thought, he had passed by the succubus that had come to his door.
Avoided the disaster that was destined for you.
The next day, Lu Cijiu saw in the local news that a cemetery had been unearthed during the Jingke Real Estate development in the northern suburbs of Yuncheng. An archaeological team had arrived, and the project had been suspended, pending further news. Rumor had it that it was a large tomb belonging to a prince or marquis...
This was big news and even became a trending topic on Weibo.
Lu Cijiu understood why Wu Gao hesitated, but he ultimately made his own decision. Once a large tomb was discovered, the land Wu Gao had purchased could no longer be developed. He had to wait until the excavation was complete, which he didn't know how many years it would take.
In short, the project originally planned on this land was shelved.
Wu Gao naturally felt a little pained, but he still smiled and said to the outside world: "If we find anything suspicious, of course we have to hand it over to the country. We are doing business, and we still have to have some patriotism. Buried here are cultural relics and cultural heritage..."
Everyone praised Mr. Wu's great love in public, but secretly cursed him behind his back. Some said that Wu Gao had really become a vegetarian in recent years. If there was a tomb under a piece of land like this, it would be fine to hide it or cover it up. After all, Jingke was powerful, so how could it not be covered up?
Or if you are brave enough, you can ask someone to dig up the tomb and get some valuable antiques for free, killing two birds with one stone.
Now, apart from some superficial praise, what else is there?
Wu Gao sneered in his heart. He could see that these people wanted to laugh at him. He appeared generous and righteous, and kept saying that he wanted to support the national archaeological work. How could he lose the big picture for the sake of small gains? This was a national treasure.
When the archaeology professors heard this, they were really surprised. Although Mr. Wu had a bad reputation outside, he was actually a good businessman who was truly patriotic and ideologically conscious!
The discovery of the ancient tomb in Yuncheng only appeared at the end of the trending searches.
The first one is #Sun Hao’s tragic death#.
