Chapter 176 Wen Li's Sudden Popularity



The elderly man was quickly taken to the police station and soon confessed to what he had done.

The police officers who were interrogating the elderly man noticed something was wrong with his mental state and quickly took him to the hospital for a mental evaluation. As expected, they found that the man had a history of mental illness.

So much so that when the police released the information online, netizens who had been following the story for days felt that it was all too outrageous.

No one died in the building, but hundreds were injured in the explosion, and the entire building was covered in ash, with no possibility of repair for at least ten years.

All of this was because the old man's son jumped to his death due to excessive work pressure, and the old man blamed everything on innocent people.

[I almost cried when I heard the result. I was there too. If no one had kicked open the door, everyone on our floor would have been burned alive!]

[The murderer should be severely punished regardless of age; this is simply outrageous!]

[His son is innocent, but aren't we innocent?]

[I heard that two other production teams were holding press conferences at the time, and Wen Li's fans were the first to rush out.]

[To the person upstairs: I'm a fan who was invited by Wen Li. We didn't run away; Wen Li led us out!]

[At the time, except for the emergency exit on the 38th floor, which was unlocked because of its location next to the elevator, all other floors were chained up. Our Xiaolizi seemed to have a premonition that day; she not only gave us amulets for safety but also kept urging us to leave. She was supposed to stay and conduct the subsequent interviews, but because of the elevator malfunction, she personally led us down from the 38th floor. However, the emergency exit on the first floor was locked, and many people couldn't breathe. Xiaolizi had to kick it open to get us out!]

[Use, kick it away?]

[Although I don't want to believe it, I really saw with my own eyes that I kicked open a whole bunch of locks in just a few kicks.]

[Is Wen Li really not some kind of super-strong woman?]

[We didn't know either; even we fans didn't expect our idol to be so strong.]

[Suddenly, something came to mind. Didn't Lin Yi say that Oh Zai broke his leg? I think...]

[The person upstairs has a dangerous mindset. Don't think my son is weak.]

passerby: ...

After kicking open the tightly locked iron gate, you say your idol is weak?

When Wen Li's fans saw that their idol was gaining followers again, they quickly promoted Wen Li's new drama.

[My daughter's first suspense drama series as the female lead has been released! Don't miss it! It's absolutely amazing!]

Good shows don't need promotion.

In recent years, various idol dramas have emerged one after another, but very few have truly become mainstream hits.

Initially, this suspense drama didn't attract much attention when it aired, especially since such an incident occurred on the day of its premiere. It was almost completely ignored on its first day. In contrast, the male and female leads of the neighboring drama "Cold Dew Shines on Peach Blossoms" were both top-tier celebrities, and it topped the list of all popular online dramas on the same day.

Even the director of "Cold Dew Shines on Peach Blossoms" said online that this drama will definitely be the highest-rated web series of the year! It is very likely to be broadcast on satellite TV.

However, a week later, viewers of "Cold Dew Shines on Peach Blossoms" continued to dwindle. Many fans who came with high expectations were initially excited, but as they watched, they found that all the exciting plot points were concentrated in the first two episodes. The interactions between the male and female leads became less and less in the later episodes, and the female lead's character collapsed, leading to a drop in reputation.

Meanwhile, a few scattered comments appeared on various platforms.

[The little-known drama next door is actually quite good; it's written by a famous screenwriter. The subject matter is a bit niche, but trust me, the storyline is really engaging.]

[I previously thought Wen Li's acting was just average, but when I saw her portray a 38-year-old woman, the despair in her eyes and her confusion about the future truly shocked me.]

[The filming technique is also amazing; it's shot from the perspective of the male lead's father, but who would have thought the male lead would die in the third episode? And the male lead is too pure in love.]

Everyone should definitely check out this show!

More and more netizens are recommending the truth online.

Many people watched with skepticism, but ended up watching from day to night, until they saw the latest episode and were so shocked that they couldn't speak for a long time.

In the end, all I could do was join the rest of the group in promoting the show.

The series "The Truth" consists of twelve episodes. The plot is tight and the relationships between the characters are not simple, but they are all interconnected. The audience watches as the female lead transforms from a timid and insecure girl into a serial killer who commits dismemberment murders.

Many netizens even felt that they were so close to the female protagonist, and that her despair, helplessness, and final cruelty were so deafening.

The story ends with the 38-year-old female lead being brought to justice.

On this very day, the long-tail effect of "The Truth" truly began.

"The Truth" has far surpassed other shows on various platforms, becoming the dark horse of the year for each platform.

Initially, many critics and industry peers accused the production team of fabricating data for "The Truth," but a week later, on the chaotic Douban platform, "The Truth" received high scores from over 600,000 people, and the score continued to rise, eventually settling at a high score of 9.2!

It's worth noting that very few domestically produced dramas reach a score of nine, let alone this small web series.

Several lead actors, including veteran actors who were almost out of work, suddenly became popular again and received numerous offers.

Wen Li gained nearly ten million fans with just one drama!

When Zhou Xingyun told Wen Li that she had been nominated for Best Actress this year, Wen Li had just finished filming a movie and was off work.
