Chapter 7 - The Movie Queen's Domineering Fan (7)

Liu Jie was a budding flower in the entertainment industry. She had just finished playing in a fantasy fairy drama starring her. Her character was lovable. She was pure and sweet, and she had captured a large number of fans, especially after she was slapped by Qiao Zixin and sobbed that Qiao Zixin had robbed Lin Yan. Not only had it been revealed that she was Lin Yan’s loving girlfriend, but she also held herself up to a higher level than Qiao Zixin. She became the most innocent and kind-hearted victim in people’s hearts, with a growing number of fans and constant film contracts.

But in the end, only a single play, caused her foundation to become unstable. It was due to the fans she got by stepping on Qiao Zixin. Most of them were sympathetic, but now she had suddenly turned around and they found out she followed at least three second-generation rich men. She was the typical seductress, how could they be willing to follow her anymore? Although some fans said that the photos were just for dinner parties, it didn’t matter, there were still a large number of fans who had left. They were extremely disgusted with her small white flower act, which led to a large-scale scene of fans turning into anti-fans.

Lin Yan was secretly taken care of by Qiao Zixin this year, who gave him a lot of resources, and urged him to fit into a popular traffic niche with a large number of fans and mostly immature girls. As soon as the black material on him came out, they exploded!

[How could he have been raised by a rich woman? He can’t even spend what he earns, okay? The picture is so blurry, who knows who it actually is?]

[Honestly, the woman in the photo has a good figure. Even if it was photoshopped, can’t they also just be in a normal relationship? Any blurry photo can be spun into saying that he was supported. It’s just how society works, you’re really causing trouble.]

[If it’s really a silly relationship, then Li Yan and Liu Jie are not the so-called ‘loving couple’ they claim to be. They have been in love for five years and didn’t let others get involved? This photo is at least cheating, if not being kept. Besides, the woman in the photo is notoriously fond of wrapping around small and tender fresh meat.]

[Couples my ass! My fan-family never admitted that she was a “pure white flower”. I will never accept that she said they were “in love for five years”. What small white flower? That photo only showed that they were 18 when they were together, okay? He is single!]

[Liu Liu was interviewed and said that she and Lin Yan had been in love for five years, and Lin Yan did not refute it. Now that Liu Liu had been blacked out, Lin Yan doesn’t dare to say a word and even let his die-hard fans come to blacken Liu Liu. Is he a man or a eunuch with no balls!]

[Qiao Zixin said that he was her boyfriend before. Now he is suddenly exposed to have been with Liu Jie. I’m suspecting that it has something to do with her! This woman must be trying to drag him into the water because of her illness. Qiao Zixin and Liu Jie are obviously enemies. You love to smear people, take away this evil gossip, and don’t get involved!]

Xu Zifan kept in touch with the two water armies. One was responsible for diverting all the comments about Qiao Zixin and letting Qiao Zixin leave the gossip quietly. The other was responsible for instigating the relationship between Lin Yan and Liu Jie’s fans. Their fans are young and have short tempers. On one hand, they hated the fact that their Male God had a girlfriend, and on the other hand, they also dislike the goddess’s boyfriend’s failure to take on responsibilities. They fought with each other and dug up black material on each other. They were really and truly getting together and quarrelling inseparably. The public saw their two fan bases fight on the Internet every day, and greeting each other’s ancestors. The atmosphere was so foul that they couldn’t help but feel disgusted. Their perception of the two stars plummeted and the two fans were turned into cults.

(TNote: greeting each other’s ancestors = not really greeting, but scolding someone thoroughly up and down their family three, even mentioning their ancestors in a bad sense.)

However, Qiao Zixin’s fans kept their heads together under Xu Zifan’s comforting. They did not take part in the arguments or talk much. Every day, they praised Qiao Zixin’s beauty and asked Qiao Zixin to come out and make a new movie. Compared with the fans of those two, he stood tall and succeeded in bringing back her previously ruined popularity.

Qiao Zixin did not know much about his manipulation of public opinion. She heard Xu Zifan tell her about the current situation and wondered, “Now we don’t need to participate anymore in this, do we? Although they don’t have real weight, their gossip is much more real than my illusory scandals. Will everyone stop believing in my scandals soon?

Xu Zifan explained to her, “In order to not only wash yourself white but also to pave the way for your future box office deals, you must pull your fans back and walk the road of popularity step by step. Only when everyone feels good about you will they be willing to see your movie. If they think you are a bad person, they may boycott your films. This kind of thing can’t be done half-heartedly. Attacking them is only a second thought. Success is the best. It doesn’t matter if you don’t succeed, the most important thing is to make the public feel that you’re good and that they’re willing to support you.”

Qiao Zixin thought about his previous step-by-step arrangement and felt that her IQ was a little behind. She tilted her head curiously. “What are you going to do next?”

Xu Zifan looked at her with a smile, “I’ll take care of all these troubles. You just rest and relax and adjust until you’re at your best condition. We’ll make a comeback film in a month. What do you think?”

“Filming? Well, I like filming very much, and the feeling of putting my heart and soul into another life is like living in another world. ” Qiao Zixin smiled, bowed her head fiddling with her fingers, and sighed, “Am I stupid? This whole year, I have only made two dramas. I plan to retire when I marry. I want to have a good relationship with my husband and child. I gave Lin Yan my own resources to win him over and even gave him a big prize. As a result, I ended up like this. Is this what being a clueless romantic is? I didn’t expect that he had been “taken care of” before he was with me. I was really stupid. Do you think anybody would come to look for me to audition for their film? If I wait and see, I’ll have to wait and see for more than half a year, perhaps. “

Xu Zifan looked at her, waved his hand in front of her eyes, and smiled. “Don’t think about the past, you are not a clueless romantic. If you meet a good man, who’s popular, and you marry him in conjugal love, it will be a happy ending. Isn’t this how the wives of the movie stars in the circle retired? It’s just that they were lucky to have met a good man, and you are less lucky and was cheated on. Take it as a lesson. However, your vision was really bad. Do you mind if I act as your agent and help you check them out in the future?”

Qiao Zixin thought about how the movie stars he mentioned were model couples in the circle. Before they became famous, their wives were already very famous. However, after they got married, their wives retired and fully supported them. They gradually became even more famous. This was really similar to her situation.

Qiao Zixin smiled helplessly. “It’s impossible for me to feel sad when I’m with you. Seriously, do you even know how to be an agent? You seem to know a lot about the entertainment circle. What do you do? I see you are very busy these days. You keep fit and speculate on stocks. You sell your house and find a private detective to buy a water army. I really can’t tell what you do for a living.”

“My job is to make you popular again, whether it’s in entertainment, the business circle, or the political circle. As long as there are people there is discord, and you just have to find out each other’s weaknesses, hit it in one stroke, and then you can always get what you want. These are just facts. As for fitness …”. Xu Zifan fiddled with his hair and leaned against the back of the sofa, “You have to have some image as an agent, so you can’t let others laugh at you. Besides, I’ll be the director of your new movie. “

Qiao Zixin stared at him with big eyes, doubting if she heard correctly, “You as the director? Are you a director?”

Xu Zifan pondered, “Um… I just learned a bit from others.”

“Whom?”

“Masters who have passed away, they won’t let me mention their names. Don’t worry, I have already started to work on it. What we have to do now is find a good script and adapt it to a script that is most suitable for your comeback as soon as possible. “

He did learn. It was from before he became a world emissary. He was scouted by the dead Directors in the underworld, to practice his acting skills. His acting skills were not refined yet, but he learned all about the Directors’ jobs. Which is euphemistically called ‘to pass on everything forward’. It was because when they were reborn, they would lose their talent for the rest of their lives. If it weren’t for his fast learning, he wouldn’t know how many years he would have been locked up in that small black room. He was very confident in acting and directing.

(to pass on everything forward/ qīng náng xiāng shòu [倾囊相授] = Pass on all skills and knowledge to students.)

Thanks to several masters who liked to teach him and tell him a lot about the entertainment circle, he was able to be so comfortable in this world that he planned a big counterattack on as soon as he got here. So far, it seemed to be going well. This was the first time he was facing a reborn woman. It didn’t matter if the other party has the means to win. Good hunters are never impatient.

Liu Jie was really trying to find a way out. She had been so worried these past few days and only recently finally calmed down. The main reason was that after she was reborn, the wind in her direction. She not only won a small following for her good role, but also successfully snatched Lin Yan from Qiao Zixin’s hands, and relieved the fond memories of her first love with Lin Yan. It was extremely sweet. What made her even more proud was that she was able to trample Qiao Zixin under her feet. She blackened Qiao Zixin by using a popular method from the future that discredited a large number of unpopular stars. As a result, other people helped her with the attack and completely attacked Qiao Zixin to shreds, like a runt.

She was somewhat proud of these successes and felt that she was the heroine of the world. But now, this situation was a real blow to her. It seemed that everything started to become out of her control since Qiao Zixin was taken away at the bar. Qiao Zixin began to turn around and become smart. She didn’t know who was helping Qiao Zixin, but she knew the other side was very good. They were a person who fully understood the rules of the entertainment circle. Qiao Zixin found a powerful helper.

Looking at the changes in public opinion on the Internet, she couldn’t help worrying. She had also bought a water army, but she couldn’t beat the other side at all, and was used by the other side several times. She knew what she had done. She worried that the other person would one day point their finger at her. But she didn’t expect that the day would come so soon, and they even directly provoked a fight between her fans and Lin Yan’s fans. If she didn’t appease her fans, how could she and Lin Yan be together?

Liu Jie heard the water stop in the bathroom and looked back at Lin Yan coming out in his bathrobe. She smiled and stood up to meet him. “I’ll blow-dry your hair, if you don’t dry it you’ll get a headache when you sleep.”

Lin Yan sat on the sofa with a cold face and said sarcastically, “How many men’s hair have you blown dry like that?”

Liu Jie ‘s face changed. She bit the tip of her tongue, and tears burst out of her eyes. She choked up and said, “Lin Yan, why are you talking to me like that? It was my fault for breaking up with you. Didn’t I admit my mistake to you already? Are you still clinging to it? You are popular, I am not popular. The agent asked me to accompany people to drink wine, what can I do? Didn’t you want our relationship to be concealed? I was also wronged, ah! You know my stomach is bad and I hate drinking the most, I didn’t like them! Do you believe those words on the Internet? This is clearly Qiao Zixin trying to smear me! Do you still miss her and scold me for her?”

Lin Yan frowned, “Why are you mentioning her, what does it have to do with her? Forget it, forget it. Forget about the past and think about what we have to do now.”

“Maybe… We announce a wedding? This way, everyone will know how good our feelings are.” Liu Jie bit her lip, tried to propose marriage, and looked up at Lin Yan for his reaction.
