This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

Besides Gangzi and his team, who are very interested in "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City", netizens are also very interested in the filming progress of "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City".

Even though it's far away in Xinjiang province, a large number of entertainment reporters and paparazzi still came.

Entertainment reporters are mainly here to report on the upcoming opening ceremony. After all, so many netizens are paying attention, and as long as it's released, there's no shortage of traffic.

As for paparazzi, that's even simpler.

Putting aside the fact that there are many actresses in this "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" series, Lü Ming himself has the looks and ability to attract actresses. If he manages to capture any scandalous news, he could probably make a certain paparazzi famous overnight.

Not to mention the stories between Lü Ming and Gulnazar.

Lü Ming's choice of Gulnazar to play the role of "Shirley Yang" in "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" has puzzled almost all netizens except for Gulnazar's fans.

After all, apart from some ambiguous rumors about her and Lü Ming being a couple, Nazha simply doesn't have the ability to be the female lead in such a top-tier production.

If you're looking for popularity, there are plenty of actresses who are more popular than Gulnazar. Not to mention some of the top female stars in the industry, even Dilraba's current popularity is incomparable to Gulnazar's. Even if you don't choose Dilraba, there are still other top female stars you can choose from.

As for acting skills, there's not much to say about Nazha. Her acting skills, while not among the worst in the entire entertainment industry, are definitely not good either.

It's worth noting that even some award-winning actresses in the film industry have privately expressed their desire to play the role of 'Shirley Yang', the female lead in this "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City". Compared to those award-winning actresses, Naza is simply incomparable.

Therefore, in the eyes of most people, Nazha is either a pure nepotism case who got the role through her relationship with Lü Ming.

Alternatively, it could be that Lü Ming was constrained by capital and forced to choose Gulnazar for the role. After seeing this rumor, many netizens went to the official Weibo accounts of iQiyi and Tencent Video to harshly criticize and insult Gangzi and Hu Tao.

After all, everyone knows now that kiwifruit and Tencent Video are the major sponsors of "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City".

In the eyes of those netizens, Nazha is definitely innocent, so there is only one possibility: it must have been forced upon her by iQiyi and Tencent Video. Nazha was just chosen because of the pressure from capital.

Gangzi and Hu Tao were speechless when they saw the online comments.

Putting aside the fact that although they have been persuaded by Lü Ming, they initially had other candidates in mind, but Lü Ming rejected them.

Furthermore, despite being major investors who accounted for almost the entire investment in "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City," they actually didn't have much control over the project, especially in casting and filming, which was decided solely by Lü Ming.

When it comes to casting, both sides only have the right to make recommendations; the final decision rests with Lü Ming.

Not to mention that Lü Ming doesn't have the same eager attitude towards capital as people in the industry. He doesn't care about the threats from capital at all. Moreover, given Lü Ming's current situation, it's the capital that's begging him. How could capital dare to threaten him?

Although they were somewhat speechless, Gangzi and Hu Tao didn't pay much attention to the online comments.

These are just comments from netizens; on the contrary, they seem somewhat pleased with the online discussions.

After all, the more discussion there is about "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City", the greater the chance of its future success, which is the best news for Gangzi and his team.

Sure enough, after learning that "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" was about to start filming, these entertainment reporters flocked to the station with the questions raised by netizens, ready to ask them and rake in a wave of traffic.

After learning from Lü Ming that it was almost nine o'clock, Nazha quickly put on the clothes that were scattered on the ground, and then secretly ran back to her room when no one was paying attention.

Today at 11:00 AM is the opening ceremony for "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City," and she almost forgot the time.

She's the female lead in "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City," so she has to be there when filming starts. If she shows up looking disheveled, putting aside any rumors, it won't be a good thing for "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City."

So, when she got back to her room, Nazha quickly washed up and then followed Lü Ming to the place where the opening ceremony was being held.

At this moment, the venue for the opening ceremony of "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" was already surrounded by journalists from all over the country, all waiting for Lü Ming and Gulnazar to arrive.

Soon, after 11 o'clock, Lü Ming brought Gulnazar, Zhang Songwen, and other actors from "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City" to the venue for the ceremony. After a brief setup, they went to the front to be interviewed by the reporters.

Gangzi and the others were initially worried that Lü Ming wouldn't be willing to give interviews when filming started, since he hadn't given any interviews when he filmed "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" before quietly beginning filming.

Although it's a common practice for production crews to give interviews to reporters when filming starts, and if no reporters are willing to come, the crew might even pay for some interviews.

Similarly, Gangzi and the others also hoped that Lü Ming could do an interview before filming, but they decided to respect Lü Ming's opinion. If Lü Ming disagreed, this segment could be canceled.

After hearing what Gangzi and the others said, Lü Ming did not object.

To be honest, Lü Ming is not opposed to these kinds of interviews. The reason he didn't accept interviews when filming "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" was simply because no one thought highly of his show. So, no news reporters came to interview him. For Lü Ming to spend money to hire reporters to write a statement was definitely not worthwhile at the time.

But things are different now, given Lü Ming's current popularity.

Let alone such a big event as the opening ceremony of "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City", even the smallest news about Lü Ming can attract a large number of reporters. Not to mention that these reporters' interviews can also be considered as some publicity for the entire "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City", so why not?

"Lu Ming, may I ask why you chose Gulnazar to play the female lead in 'Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City'? Was it because of the pressure from the capital behind it?"

Just as Lü Ming sat down with Nazha and Zhang Songwen, a reporter rushed up to Lü Ming with a microphone, ignoring Nazha's somewhat displeased expression, and directly asked the questions raised by netizens online.

Apart from a few journalists, the vast majority of reporters are simply looking for trouble and even hoping to stir up some controversy.

Lu Ming was fully aware of their thoughts. He glanced at Nazha's expression and, seeing that her reaction wasn't particularly intense, replied, "There's no pressure from any financial backers. It's simply that I think Nazha is suitable for this role!"

The reporter who stepped forward wanted to say something more, but he was interrupted by Lü Ming, who was sitting in front of him. Lü Ming said very seriously to the camera, "I said I chose Nazha because I think she is suitable. There is no other explanation!"

Seeing that Lü Ming had said so, the reporters below knew that there was no need to keep pressing the topic at this point. Although some people were still eager to create a big news story, most of the reporters were smart.

Lü Ming is different from ordinary celebrities in the entertainment industry; scandals generally have no effect on him.

To put it bluntly, the rumors between Lü Ming and Gulnazar are nothing compared to the public opinion Lü Ming has faced online. They're not even a small part of the story.

It's worth noting that Lü Ming was almost criticized by netizens across the internet to the point of wanting him to leave the entertainment industry, but even under those circumstances, he still managed to make a comeback.

Their writing skills, which were originally intended to be effective against celebrities in the entertainment industry, were completely ineffective against Lü Ming.

To sum it up in one sentence, Lü Ming doesn't need paparazzi or entertainment reporters to stir things up; he can do it himself.

Unless they can completely destroy Lü Ming and prevent him from ever recovering, no one would be willing to deliberately offend him.

You have to understand that Lü Ming is currently a top influencer in the entire industry. Who wouldn't want to have a good relationship with Lü Ming and get some first-hand news?

Even if we can't befriend Lü Ming, there's no need to offend him.

After all, if they were blacklisted by Lü Ming, who is currently a top influencer in the industry, they wouldn't have an easy time either, especially since they have no way to deal with Lü Ming.

"So, Nazha, what are your thoughts on being chosen by Lü Ming as the female lead in 'Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City'? Do you have anything to say?"

At this moment, the reporter that Sugar Man had hired came out in a very friendly manner and asked Nazha, who was sitting next to Lü Ming, a question.

"I want to thank Lü Ming for his trust in me and for giving me such an important role!"

"All I can do is play this role well and not let Lü Ming, the director, and the audience down!"

Following Cai Yinong's instructions, Nazha spoke into the microphone and camera extended in front of her. When talking about being chosen by Lü Ming, she turned to look at Lü Ming sitting next to her, her eyes overflowing with affection. The love contained in her eyes was obvious even to those who didn't know her well.

The two of them are indeed connected!

Upon seeing Nazha's expression, the reporters present all gave her knowing looks.

Judging from Nazha's eyes, if she were a young girl experiencing her first love, probably no one would doubt it.

They could all see it, and there was no way Lü Ming couldn't have missed it.

"Mr. Zhang, could you tell everyone how you were chosen by Lü Ming? The netizens online don't know much about you and are very curious!"

After interviewing Lü Ming and Nazha, the reporters quickly turned their cameras to Zhang Songwen, who was standing to the side.

If we're talking about who's been trending online lately, then besides Lü Ming and Gulnazar, it's Zhang Songwen, a previously unknown extra in the entertainment industry, who's garnered the most attention.

In a short period of time, Zhang Songwen's Weibo followers increased several hundred times, and his number of followers suddenly became millions of new 'big stars'.

Although Zhang Songwen had explained it online before, most netizens were still very curious as to why Lü Ming chose Zhang Songwen to play the role of the second male lead.

Looking at the countless microphones and cameras that were almost shoved in his face, Zhang Songwen still couldn't quite believe it.

You should know that he used to be just a nobody in the industry, and no one paid any attention to him, let alone interviewed him by so many people.

Although he had envied others' glory and success under the spotlight, Zhang Songwen could hardly imagine what he was seeing, even in his dreams.

"Well, to be honest, I don't really know much about it either!"

"When Lü Ming first called me, I even thought he was a scammer and hung up on him right away!"

Zhang Songwen looked at the person beside him with gratitude, then said with some relief, "Fortunately, Mr. Lü Ming didn't hold a grudge and contacted me again through someone else!"

Upon hearing Zhang Songwen's words, the journalists below immediately became excited, never expecting such a story to exist.

This is a great topic, so he quickly pressed Zhang Songwen for more information.

After hearing what the reporters said, Zhang Songwen finally realized what was happening and looked apologetically at Lü Ming beside him, unsure of how to respond.

Only after seeing Lü Ming's look that told him not to worry about it did Zhang Songwen briefly describe his previous conversation with Lü Ming to the reporters in front of him.

After hearing Zhang Songwen's explanation, the reporters present seemed to understand Zhang Songwen's situation at the time.

After all, if they were Zhang Songwen back then, and suddenly received a call from Lü Ming inviting him to play the second male lead role in "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City", they would probably also think Lü Ming was a scammer.

After all, Zhang Songwen was virtually unknown in the industry at the time, and nobody knew him.

Just as these entertainment reporters had predicted, once the real-time photo of Nazha gazing at Lü Ming was uploaded online, netizens' reactions were almost exactly as they had imagined.

That means Nazha definitely has a relationship with Lü Ming! (End of Chapter)
