Huayu Entertainment: The Birth of a Succubus Top Star

Li Qing: "Oh my god, I'm so bored, I'm going crazy. I really envy you guys. I wish I had gone with you."

Song Yi: "Exactly, playing mahjong every day and being able to do live streams with Brother Xiaoyan, it's like living the life of a god."

Zhu Xudan: "It's infuriating! Your live streams are getting more viewers than people's TV dramas."

Li Yitong: "Hehe, the key is that I can have sex with Brother Xiaoyan."

Jin Cheng: "Sister Tongtong, you're so sexy, but it's really enviable."

Zhou Ye: "I'm so envious!"

Sister Meng: "Envious, aren't you? Jealous? That's why you didn't come."

Zhang Tianai: +1.

Cheng Xiao: +1.

Song Yi: "Who would have thought this would happen? I wonder when the lockdown will be lifted."

Jin Cheng @ Chen Duling: "What is Dudu busy with? She's not saying anything."

Chen Duling: "I'm looking at the list of film crews in Hengdian. If we can start filming someday, I'll find some crews to do some cameo roles."

Li Yitong: "Dudu is really ambitious, no wonder she is a top student."

Chen Duling: "No, I'm just killing time anyway, so I'm looking for something to do."

Jin Cheng: "I just can't do it. I'm like a salted fish, I don't want to move at all."

……

The "We Are a Loving Family" group has been quite active lately, with bored young ladies posting messages in the group every day.

Expressing envy and jealousy towards Sister Meng, Cheng Xiao, and Zhang Tianai is a "regular activity" in the group chat.

There are hundreds or even thousands of messages in the group every day.

This is just the message from one group; it doesn't even include messages from other groups.

That's right, these girls are in more than one group.

"We are a loving family" is like a large group chat, but there are countless smaller groups in private.

You should know that in a girls' dormitory with four girls, there are five group chats.

There are over a dozen girls in the group, and heaven knows how many groups there are.

Gu Zhiyan knew that Sister Guang Meng had more than a dozen groups with other girls.

Everyone says that girls have a lot on their minds, but to this extent, Gu Zhiyan really wondered if they might have a split personality.

If you accidentally send the message to the wrong group, you'll be so embarrassed!

Gu Zhiyan knew all this because Sister Meng had secretly shown it to him; he knew exactly what people were talking about in the group chat.

Sister Meng also instructed Gu Zhiyan to keep the fact that she showed him the group messages a secret, otherwise she would be unable to face her friends.

Hmm, that sounds familiar, because other young ladies have done this and said the same thing.

Cheng Xiao, who accompanied Gu Zhiyan today, was snuggling in his arms like a kitten after exercising.

"Xiaoxiao, are you on a diet lately?"

Cheng Xiao nodded: "Ah, Brother Yan, you noticed?"

Gu Zhiyan: "Yeah, I could tell when you first arrived. The feel was off."

Gu Zhiyan's hand was like a ruler; the moment she touched it, she noticed the difference—it was a tiny bit smaller.

The statement that you should lose weight in your breasts first is a bit too absolute.

The first part of the body to lose weight varies from person to person.

But no matter where you lose weight first, your breasts will generally shrink as well, except for some people who are born with exceptional features.

"Is it too small?" Cheng Xiao looked down and pouted. "I don't want to lose weight, but a lot of people make fun of my thick legs."

"Don't listen to those people's nonsense. It's not bulky at all; it has a healthy beauty. Don't lose any more weight; it's just right now."

It's said that you look 10 pounds heavier on camera. Cheng Xiao's legs weren't particularly thick to begin with, and she's lost some weight recently, so they look even thinner.

If you remove your personal brand, it won't be good for your career development. Of course, Gu Zhiyan also has some selfish motives.

"Okay, Brother Yan, I'll listen to you and won't reduce it anymore." Cheng Xiao nodded obediently.

She knew exactly what Xiao Yan liked most about her. What if she shrank and Xiao Yan stopped liking her?

"Brother Xiaoyan, could you measure how much smaller it is?"

Cheng Xiao grabbed Gu Zhiyan's hand...

……

In late February, in accordance with relevant policy requirements, film and television production crews began to resume work in stages, and personnel began to move around in an orderly manner.

Sister Meng, Zhang Tianai, and Cheng Xiao also left the "Cliff Walkers" production team.

Everyone on the crew breathed a sigh of relief; they were finally back to work after a really tough time.

The songs that Gu Zhiyan wrote for Zhang Liangying and Zhang Hanyun before the Lunar New Year have been released by the two of them.

The poem given to Zhang Hanyun is "Yu Xi Tan", while the poem given to Zhang Liangying is "Yan Wu Xie".

Both songs feature traditional Chinese opera singing and a classical Chinese style. They became an instant hit upon release, topping the charts on major music platforms.

Especially on short video platforms, countless cover versions, DJ versions, and opera-style versions have been created across the internet, and the background music has been used extensively.

Both of these songs are phenomenal hits in the ancient Chinese style.

The songs that Lim Yoon-ah and Lee Ji-eun received were received earlier, but they haven't been released yet.

Gu Zhiyan figured it wouldn't be long before the film was released, so she stopped thinking about it and focused all her energy on filming.

As soon as the film crew resumed work, Zhang Yimou went into overdrive and accelerated the filming process.

He was probably worried about something unexpected happening, since if anyone in the crew got infected during the "mask" period, the production would have to stop again.

Since filming had already begun, Gu Zhiyan stopped the live stream.

The hype surrounding his livestream had barely died down when another top-tier contestant began dominating the trending topics.

This top-tier contestant is Xiao Zhan, and this incident is known as the "227 Incident".

A writer published a fanfiction titled "Falling" on the AO3 website, which portrayed Xiao Zhan as a hairdresser.

The article included a femaleized portrait of Xiao Zhan, a storyline that fans found unacceptable, sparking strong dissatisfaction among Xiao Zhan's fans.

The Xiao Zhan fan community held an election to select two big fans as leaders of this event. They mobilized fans to carry out large-scale reporting, which led to the removal of "Falling" from the platform and the author abandoning his account, affecting platforms such as Lofter and Bilibili.

Due to the increasingly extreme rhetoric and "reporting actions" of Xiao Zhan's die-hard fans.

In a short time, communities in Europe and America, Japan and South Korea, comics, and fan fiction joined the "battle" against Xiao Zhan's fans.

Readers in fan fiction communities and websites have also spontaneously joined the ranks of those defending "creative freedom."

The battle intensified, and even bystanders joined the fray.

The battle intensified, involving an ever-widening range of people.

As the situation escalated, Xiao Zhan remained silent and did not respond, which made netizens dislike him even more.

Xiao Zhan himself became a "public enemy of the internet," and all the films and TV dramas he starred in were boycotted or received negative reviews. The brands he endorsed were also boycotted by netizens, and his personal and team image suffered a severe blow.

In response to this incident, official media outlets published five articles criticizing the idol for remaining silent, emphasizing that celebrities have a responsibility to guide their fans.

Boycotts of his endorsements, low ratings for his works, and criticism from state media for "disqualification as an idol" brought Xiao Zhan's career to a standstill.

Was Xiao Zhan wronged?

In Gu Zhiyan's opinion, it was not unfair at all.

He couldn't possibly be unaware of the situation given how big it had become.

As the saying goes, idols pay the price for their fans' actions.

An idol's popularity, commercial value, and resources all depend on fan data and consumption; to enjoy the benefits, one must also bear the risks.

Idols have a responsibility to guide their fans, and if they enjoy the attention they receive, they should restrain their fans.

Silence is tantamount to condoning!
