Shishan Studio has been relentlessly attacked by the "Climbing Ivy Sisters" year after year, developing an iron will. They've completely ignored the "Climbing Ivy Sisters'" demands, offering no response whatsoever.
This attitude of neither admitting nor denying completely made the women of the ivy anxious.
Solo fans and studios have been fighting for a long time, and have accumulated a set of experiences. Usually, when solo fans flood the studio's comment section with such matters, the studio will typically post a Weibo message within 24 hours using the alternate account @山间种茶—the message is short, containing only one word:
【Fake. 】
This response implies that this is fabricated information released by a nobody trying to piggyback on Shi Shan's fame. It's utter nonsense, so pointless that it doesn't even warrant a response from a major account.
In rare cases, the studio will use its main account to release a more formal schedule for Shi Shan, subtly refuting the rumors.
This suggests that the offer may have been made to Shi Shan, but he declined. Alternatively, the rumors may have spread so widely that they have already caused considerable impact, forcing the studio to issue a statement through its official account.
On rare occasions, the studio will employ a "playing dead" tactic. No matter how much the fans rant and rave, the studio will pretend not to see it, methodically releasing selfies, trailers, and other fan-pleasing content, making everything seem normal.
Then, when the official announcement of the "rotten cake" takes place, they'll give the fans a huge surprise.
Unfortunately, this time, it seems to be just a "very rare occurrence"!
The ivy-covered ladies remember it all perfectly well. The last time the studio pretended to be dead for a month, Shi Shan officially announced that he would be the second lead in a low-budget film with an outrageously obscure subject matter.
What the ivy fans found most unacceptable was that the lead actor in that low-budget film was an unknown newcomer who hadn't even registered a Weibo account!
Meanwhile, Luan Qing, who was the thorn in the side of the ivy-loving crowd, brazenly announced that she would be the lead actress in a big-budget commercial film!
That time, many fans lost their support and turned against the studio. The studio managed to stabilize the fanbase by hiring many professional fans, spreading messages such as "returning a favor," "only caring about the character, not the billing order," and "a new artistic breakthrough." They also released a lot of fan-pleasing behind-the-scenes footage, leaked photos, and old news about pampering fans. Only then did they manage to retain their fanbase.
Subsequent events proved that Shi Shan's eye for casting was indeed very insightful. That second lead role earned Shi Shan a nomination for Best Actor at the Thousand Frames Awards, the only award he ever received in his acting career.
Even so, this character still became a laughing stock among Luan Qing's fans, who would bring it up every time to provoke the "Climbing Ivy Sisters" (a nickname for Luan Qing's fans). This also became a hidden pain in the hearts of Shi Shan's fans.
This has happened twice in just a few years!
Twenty-four hours later, Shishan Studio still had not responded, and the "Climbing Ivy Sisters" were immediately disheartened.
Losing hope, the fans also lost their minds. The Shi Shan fan circle, which had barely managed to maintain stability just a day before, completely descended into madness, with fans driving tanks into Shang Ye Chu's comment section.
Shang Yechu doesn't update her Weibo frequently; her latest post was a repost of the Empress Dowager's program schedule.
The Sixth Empress Dowager was, after all, practically a member of the imperial family, and in the past, even the "Climbing Ivy Sisters" wouldn't dare to easily provoke her. But now, with Shi Shan about to become Ye Chu's second-in-command, what need was there for reason?
@叶初Leaves: Ah Feng's finale is here! So excited! //@CHTV-6 CTS Official Weibo:
[This week's featured film on the Movie Channel: The "Xiao Feng Que" series (adapted from Jiang Shang Nong Chao Sheng's "Feng Xi You Long"), directed by Yi Tianzhao and starring Ye Chu Leaves, consists of eight films!]
The highly anticipated and popular martial arts epic is about to reach its finale this week!
What will become of Xiao Fengque, the legendary hero?
The first seven parts of the "Xiao Feng Que" series will be rebroadcast from 17:30 to 19:30 every Monday to Sunday.
The grand finale of "Xiao Fengque: The Return" will premiere this Sunday evening from 7:35 PM to 9:30 PM!
This Weibo post originally had thousands of comments, all of which were harmonious interactions with the little buds, who were overjoyed. But now, the ivy sisters have rushed in and crushed the few little buds, leaving them completely barren.
[Response!]
Please, sister, come out and clarify this rumor! Thank you so much!
[The ivy respects all artists of good character, whether senior or junior. We look forward to seeing Ms. Ye and Shi Shan in each other's works after Ms. Ye has made progress.]
I really enjoyed your performances of "Xiao Feng Que" and "The Mute Woman," sister. Which group are you joining next? [peeking]
Hey sis, stop rubbing against me. [Please follow me]
[Shi Shan's good character is not a reason for people to casually piggyback on his fame. There's no need to force it between different circles. It's best for the two circles to keep to themselves. [bows]]
[Shi Shan is not a vegetarian Tiger Sister, Da Jie should hurry up and clarify, or you'll get too cocky.]
[Tiger Sister, please speak rationally in the comments section, don't let gossipy people make a fuss about it! [up!]]
[We respect all seniors and juniors. Ms. Ye, please respond to the false rumors circulating online. Thank you.]
These few newly sprouted leaf buds are no match for the mighty Tiger Sisters. In less than an hour, Shang Yechu's comment section was completely overrun, not a single green leaf could be seen.
"The top comment has over 10,000 likes!" Ji Juntao exclaimed in astonishment. "Shi Shan's fandom is still so popular after all these years? I thought he had already moved away from the traffic-driven world."
Shang Yechu was applying a cooling patch to her forehead when she heard this and said lazily, "As long as a male star is decent-looking and not too old, it's impossible for him to completely lose his popularity—let alone Shi Shan."
Shi Shan's face is undeniably handsome; it's no wonder he has a large following of female fans. Ji Juntao sighed, "Wei Xuan has made his move."
"I don't quite understand this move." Shang Yechu applied the cooling patch. "Old Ji, can you analyze this for me? Why is Wei Xuan's team doing something so pointless and harmful to themselves?"
Ji Juntao was about to answer when he remembered something and swallowed his words back: "Stop pretending to be familiar with me, you haven't answered me yet—"
Ji Juntao sneered: "I ran around for you, found Zheng Bohan's address, and persuaded him to choose you. What were you doing at the same time? Playing a cat-and-mouse game with Shi Shan?"
"You've been asking me about this trivial matter for two or three days now." Shang Yechu covered her eyes. "I've already told you—Li Ruhui and Li Yiming have a comradeship from the front, so Shi Shan really isn't here to cultivate the kind of relationship you're thinking of."
“I’ve told you everything that happened at the club, down to the last detail. I even told you about the vegetable stuck in Coach Kang’s teeth. What more do you want?”
"No cat-and-mouse game, no sweet nothings. I almost gave him a concussion, are you satisfied now?"
Ji Juntao chuckled and said, "Is that so? It seems I was being petty and judging that beast's noble intentions."
"Hey, hey," Shang Yechu shook her head helplessly, "Fine, you can scold him if you want, just don't let it get to other people's ears. Speaking of which, how did you manage to convince Zheng Bohan that you tricked me into giving up the lead role? Even I don't believe it myself. How did you manage to convince Zheng Bohan?"
Put yourself in her shoes. If someone told Shang Yechu that Ji Juntao was willing to give up Qingping Entertainment for her and become a housewife, Shang Yechu's first thought wouldn't be one of being moved, but rather that this person was drunk.
