Which top celebrity doesn't support a few female stars?

Although the awards at this entertainment gala were not particularly prestigious, the event was large in scale, and the organizers even arranged for it to be broadcast live.

Simultaneously streamed on multiple social media platforms such as Douyin and Weibo, the current red carpet segment has already attracted a large number of netizens.

In the live streams on various platforms, there is no shortage of ili and xiaoheizi who know Li Zhou's schedule in advance.

ili seemed disciplined, constantly sending bullet comments to cheer for Li Zhou, but controlling the frequency very well.

Xiao Heizi only occasionally pops up, posting memes like "Zhou Ni Yao Yan".

When Li Zhou walked onto the red carpet, the chat rooms on various live streams clearly went into a frenzy...

"Why is my brother Zhou all alone? It must be because the organizers are suppressing him."

"I've missed my brother Zhou quite a bit after not seeing him for a few days. Could you please recreate your performance of 'You Shine, Zhou' today?"

"..."

When it comes to close-up shots, every one of these guys is a professional, and they're always unrestrained and carefree.

Clearly, Ili is not one to be trifled with; she will directly confront and refute overly obnoxious comments from trolls.

Unfortunately, the size of the little black guy is exaggerated, and he can automatically turn into a neutral audience.

Apart from Weibo, ili has been suffering a steady decline in popularity on other live streaming platforms.

But soon, the situation suddenly took a dramatic turn...

"I was just making jokes, and then my brother Zhou suddenly said something about eating properly. I'm about to cry..."

"A few days ago he told me not to get drunk, now he's telling me to eat properly, and he made me cry..."

"I can tell the difference between fake gratitude and genuine concern /crying.jpg"

"..."

Ili will seize any opportunity; she immediately showed her true colors...

"You guys are really going too far! Lili was talking to us at ILI, not to you little haters!"

"Did you think we were blind just now with your smug faces?! Get out of the way, you little devils!"

"..."

However, this time there was no intense barrage of comments, and the haters were just sighing to themselves.

What… “From now on, if my brother Zhou gets into trouble, we little black treasures will step in first; if he’s not in trouble, then we’re the trouble…”

"I've always been by my brother Zhou's side, whether he was at his peak or in his slump. As for how he went through his slump, don't worry about that for now..."

"..."

If the previous "Don't get drunk" was intentional on Li Zhou's part, this time "Eat well" was simply a direct expression of his true feelings.

For the past week, Li Zhou has spent ten to twenty minutes every day before his lunch break replying to a large number of private messages.

Amidst the countless simple and heartfelt greetings, there were also expressions of the hardships and struggles of ordinary people, as well as cyberbullying...

Therefore, Li Zhou felt that nothing was more representative than "eat well".

Unexpectedly, the words had barely left his mouth when they became a new internet sensation within 0 seconds.

Specifically, in the official live stream of the event, the vast majority of viewers had no interest in who was walking the red carpet.

Even when that top-tier 95-born star came along later, he was still completely overshadowed.

Some entertainment marketing accounts quickly stirred up trouble, posting screenshots with captions on platforms like Weibo and Douyin...

Even among top celebrities, there are varying degrees of success...

"No exaggeration, no bias, just facts: Li Zhou is the benchmark for top-tier popularity."

"..."

Without a doubt, this pace will only have a negative impact on Li Zhou.

Aside from provoking the fans of the top 95-born idol, making them hate Li Zhou, or even directly tearing into Ili, there is almost no other possibility.

However, none of these things were within Li Zhou's scope of concern...

After walking the red carpet, he went to the lounge to quickly tidy up his appearance before entering the venue. He then cooperated with the organizers' arrangements.

...

……

The larger the event, the more inevitably the process becomes lengthy...

After a long and tedious process involving the entrance and other various formalities, the grand ceremony officially began at around 7 p.m.

There were all sorts of speeches at the beginning, and if Li Zhou hadn't been so energetic, he could have fallen asleep listening to them.

As an aside, the seating arrangement for this event was rather unusual.

Li Zhou was assigned to the third row, with Su Yuran on his left, Ning Xixia on his right, and a group of film and television stars on the other side.

In terms of popularity, none of them can compare to Li Zhou.

But it wasn't specifically targeting Li Zhou.

At this entertainment gala, five of the seven top celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry (four men and three women) attended, with three of them seated in the third row.

As a result, some senior colleagues were very unhappy that they couldn't sit in the first row, and they almost got into an argument.

Fortunately, Li Zhou has never been the type to nitpick, and he doesn't care about such things as seating arrangements or status.

Since the official live broadcast of the event only focused on the stage area, after a while, the celebrities sitting in the audience had already started their own "activities".

For example, some people use their bodies or clothing accessories to cover their faces while playing on their phones.

as well as……

Su Yuran and Ning Xixia, who were sitting to Li Zhou’s left and right, were whispering to each other.

Initially, they were only reminded by Li Zhou to put on an act in order to get on the trending topics.

However, they soon got into a real emotional outburst, sharing their simple experiences.

So, sitting in the middle, Li Zhou heard quite a bit of inside gossip from within the industry...

"...Right, many veteran actors are just old. They automatically become more famous as they get older, and their tempers become very strange."

"Dissatisfaction with seating arrangements is nothing to worry about; acting like a senior member of the crew is commonplace on set..."

"That guy..."

"Yes, yes, I also wanted to talk about that person. They started by saying how things were back then, looking down on this person and that person, and they even criticized our teacher, Mr. Li, by name multiple times..."

"He doesn't even look at what he was like back then. Getting divorced and changing wives every time he filmed a movie was considered relatively restrained. A man who knew he was a mistress and actually became one, and he even said that as long as you swing the hoe well enough, there's no corner you can't dig down..."

"They keep saying things like, 'If it weren't for the internet age, there wouldn't be any such thing as a top influencer...'"

"He should be grateful that the internet wasn't as developed when he was young, otherwise he would have had countless scandals and actually thought he was a paragon of virtue and talent..."

Because Li Zhou was crossing his legs, Su Yuran started slapping Li Zhou's knees as if they were her own thighs when they got excited.

Ning Xixia was no exception, and she swung her elbow directly at Li Zhou's thigh.

Li Zhou didn't pay attention to this detail; he just listened with a hint of helplessness: "Why are these old-timers using me as a scapegoat to show off?"

Seeing Li Zhou interrupt, Ning Xixia couldn't help but scoff: "Because you, Teacher Li, didn't act, he thinks he can give advice just because he's acted a lot."

"In reality, he doesn't even have any works that can be considered representative," Su Yuran added from the side. "He just knows how to flaunt his seniority and acts like a father figure."

"..."

...

……

Almost at the same time that Su Yuran and Ning Xixia finished complaining about a certain "veteran actor," a new trending topic appeared on Weibo—

#Ning Xixia 'Li Zhuo' Su Yuran#

#Is Li Zhou there to listen to gossip?#

Su Yuran also received the message. She opened Weibo and checked it out, then clicked her tongue in amazement: "I hope it doesn't become the number one trending topic..."

Ning Xixia, on the other side, also pulled out her phone: "Wow! It's trending on Douyin too..."

"Holy crap, only a few minutes have passed, and one video already has over 50 likes?"

"Is this the true value of your popularity, Teacher Li?"

Li Zhou didn't take credit, frankly stating, "No. It was just a matter of exploiting gossip. Any male celebrity could have taken my place."

He also studied current online trends.

Ning Xixia scrolled through the comments and exclaimed in admiration, "The atmosphere in the comments section is more friendly than I imagined. I'm so glad that Teacher Li was willing to mentor me..."

Li Zhou simply listened.

He actually knew that Ning Xixia had always harbored some worries in her heart.

Given Li's negative online presence, any exposure that even touches on gossip-like topics could easily lead to him being targeted and smeared.

However, the majority of comments from casual netizens and even the haters were quite friendly this time...

"If it weren't for Li Zhou sitting here, Ning Xixia and Su Yuran wouldn't dare to talk like this..."

"Is Li Zhou's chest the safest spot for gossip?"

"..."

"Putting aside everything else, my brother Zhou is a decent person. He's definitely tight-lipped, so it's fine for him to listen to a little gossip."

"And my brother Zhou is also quite good at providing emotional value. He looks left and right, and occasionally smiles and nods."

"..."

Among them were highly praised comments—

"Bestie, let's just casually chat in the arms of handsome guys from now on."

"I've learned the latest way to chat: snuggle up in a handsome guy's arms with your best friend!"

"..."

Clearly, no matter what the entertainment awards ceremony does, Li Zhou, along with Su Yuran and Ning Xixia, has already secured the absolute center position for tonight.
