I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 144 Reactions from Insiders

"Of course I can tell. This kid must have offended someone, and then they hired online trolls to smear him. But what does it have to do with us? Anyway, I'm happy that the kid is unlucky," Feng Dapao said happily.

"Won't this implicate us?" said Mr. Wang.

"How could that be? Unless it's..."

Feng Dapao immediately denied it, but then seemed to have thought of something and cautiously asked, "Mr. Wang, can you give me a hint? Could this be something your brother did?"

I can't stand Cheng Sheng, but his methods are a bit shameless.

"This one……"

Mr. Wang really didn't know if his older brother had orchestrated this, but it didn't seem like it should happen!
Even if his elder brother hates Cheng Sheng, it's not to this extent. He shouldn't hire online trolls to slander Cheng Sheng.

"It can't be the eldest brother," Young Master Wang said after a moment's thought, shaking his head in denial.

"That's true. Even the King wouldn't be so careless in his work. He just made a few seconds of video and offended Cheng Sheng so badly."

Feng Dapao agreed with Xiao Wang's words. After all, if Da Wang had taken action to defame Cheng Sheng, it wouldn't be as simple as just a video or hiring online trolls to do so.

They would definitely kill Cheng Sheng as soon as they made a move, otherwise, if Cheng Sheng found out, it would be a fight to the death.

"If it's not our Huayi Company, then who do you think it could be?" asked Manager Wang.

Feng Dapao fell into deep thought.

Cheng Sheng only started acting last year and has only filmed one movie.

However, this guy has a sharp tongue and has offended many people in the industry, especially after offending Wu Baige, he has already offended half of the Hong Kong and Taiwan artists.

"The most likely candidates are Wu Baige or those Hong Kong and Taiwan stars," Feng Dapao said.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Wang nodded in agreement. Having interacted with Wu Baige and Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities, he was very clear about their character.

Those people in Hong Kong and Taiwan usually gain attention by spreading rumors and leaking information.

Moreover, the practice of hiring online trolls to smear others was first popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

"It seems Wu Baige is very unhappy with Cheng Sheng! She's resorting to such tactics; she's trying to offend Cheng Sheng to the point of no return," said Manager Wang with a smile.

"Neither of them are good people. It would be best if the authorities banned them both," Feng Dapao said viciously.

Whether it's Cheng Sheng or Wu Baige, Feng Dapao disapproves of both.

"This is going to be interesting," said Mr. Wang, squinting his eyes.

"Should we at Huayi give them a push?" Feng Dapao asked, a thought suddenly occurring to him.

"No, it's best if we don't get involved in this kind of thing," said Mr. Wang, shaking his head.

"why?"

In Feng Dapao's view, shouldn't we kill all the enemies?
"China Film."

Instead of explaining, Mr. Wang simply said two words.

Upon hearing this, Feng Dapao immediately fell silent.

Xiao Wang didn't say it explicitly, but Feng Dapao understood.

Both Cheng Sheng and Wu Baige's films were invested in by China Film Group.

As the top agency in mainland China, China Film Group certainly doesn't want Cheng Sheng and Wu Baige to perish together.

So, despite the current uproar online, China Film Group will definitely step in to mediate.

It's a pity about this great opportunity; if it weren't for China Film Group, Huayi Brothers could have profited from it.

Orange Sky Entertainment.

Wang Jinhua watched the morning news without saying a word, which made Fan Shuangbing, who was sitting opposite her, anxious.

"Sister Hua, what do you think we should do?" Fan Shuangbing asked hurriedly.

In general, people in the entertainment industry have three choices in such situations.

The first option is to join in the chorus of violence, but this will offend one side to the core. The second option is to help, but this will also offend the other side.

The third option is to ignore it and not help either side.

Choosing the last option is appropriate, but doing so will not yield any results.

"Don't panic, this is clearly someone hiring online trolls to slander Cheng Sheng."

Wang Jinhua truly lives up to her reputation as the top agent in mainland China; she spotted the problem at a glance.

Fan Shuangbing is still a bit too young now, not as shrewd as she will be in the future. She hasn't figured out the problem yet, and is only thinking about positioning herself.

"If this video is defaming Cheng Sheng, then it must be fake?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Shuangbing felt a pang of disappointment.

She didn't know what she was feeling down about; she was still thinking about her own things.

Fan Shuangbing had met with Cheng Sheng several times and even gave him some subtle hints.

But Cheng Sheng seemed oblivious, treating her with indifference.

Because of this, she even thought that her charm had diminished.

Otherwise, why wouldn't Cheng Sheng take the bait?
You know, in the past, if she just winked at those men or beckoned with her pinky, they would pounce on her like mad dogs.

On the contrary, Cheng Sheng was so serious that he seemed a bit unmanly.

A stunningly beautiful woman was practically offered to him, but he didn't react at all.

Is this the normal reaction a man should have?

Because of this, she even suspected that Cheng Lisheng was gay.

Fan Shuangbing was very excited when she saw the video first thing in the morning.

It turns out that Cheng Sheng likes women.

Was Cheng Sheng's previous attitude towards her a case of playing hard to get?

If so, then she has a chance.

She is very skilled at dealing with men; as long as a man is interested in her, she is absolutely confident that she can win him over.

So, she came to find Wang Jinhua early in the morning to ask if she could write an article to help Cheng Sheng, so as to attract Cheng Sheng's attention and give her a chance to make her move.

Once I win over Cheng Sheng, will I ever lack resources again?

But now Sister Hua says that this is an online troll attacking Cheng Sheng, which means that the video is not real.

This left Fan Shuangbing feeling both amused and exasperated.

This is so different from what she expected!

"The video doesn't seem fake, but it feels like the beginning and end have been cut off." Wang Jinhua could tell at a glance whether the video was real or fake, but she could also see the problems with it.

"Sister Hua, what does 'cut off the head and tail' mean?" Fan Shuangbing asked, puzzled.

Wang Jinhua reviewed the five-second video again and said, "Cutting off the beginning and end of a video refers to using editing techniques to remove redundant content at the beginning and end of the video, retaining only the core segments. This operation is commonly used in video editing to improve video quality or avoid detection by the platform when reposting."

"You see, at the end of the video, this woman lifts her foot and walks towards Cheng Sheng's room, but the video ends there. Anyone with eyes can see that there's something wrong. If they really wanted to prove that Cheng Sheng was playing around with women, why didn't they film Cheng Sheng closing the door?"

The person who filmed this kind of video is extremely malicious. This is completely misleading. Wang Jinhua has seen this kind of thing many times in the entertainment industry.

Without concrete evidence, it's really easy to be falsely accused.

Many celebrities have also suffered setbacks because of this.

However, as long as there is evidence in hand, it is generally difficult to smear the other party.

The people targeting Cheng Sheng this time aren't very clever. What kind of proof can a five-second video provide? The real smearers of Cheng Sheng are the paid trolls in the comments section.

How much can be believed in the words of online trolls?
