Chapter 9
I opened Weibo and saw my name on the top of the list.
#Cheng Xiaofan's connection with Gu Yan# #Cheng Xiaofan's cold face towards Gu Yan# The most absurd one was this: #Cheng Xiaofan, the ugly child of a capitalist#.
Ugly child? Me? I was furious.
Since I was young, everyone praised me wherever I went, saying I was beautiful.
Although I wasn't particularly outstanding in the entertainment industry, I couldn't be called ugly either! The previously recorded "Good Friends" show aired.
The editing of the program was very deliberate, portraying me from start to finish as a newcomer who tried but failed to gain popularity and instead harbored resentment towards Gu Yan, the influential figure.
It was as if something was stuck in my eye, and I blinked in response to my seniors' insult.
Eating with toothpicks was portrayed as being impatient with the staff.
Even Qi Ke helping me carry my luggage was portrayed as me taking advantage of others.
In Gu Yan's personal interview, when the host asked about me, her expression was somewhat awkward.
"Xiao Fan, she's...
she's doing quite well, she has a strong personality haha.
But she should be able to do well in the entertainment industry, after all, she's young," she said.
The comments underneath were all negative.
"My god, does even Gu Yan have to cater to her?" "Where does she come from, this connected person?" "I heard a rumor that she's the third child of a certain capital tycoon..." "A bed hopper, no wonder." "I can't believe it, is it true?" Me: "..." Marketing accounts are really frightening.
With so many marketing accounts criticizing me at the same time, I don't believe there's no one behind the scenes pushing it further.
I am no longer planning to enter the entertainment industry, so I don't care about how netizens perceive me.
While netizens are criticizing me, they are also digging into my personal information.
However, my father has protected me so well that not a single photo of me has been leaked.
As a result, not only were none of my works found, but even the entire entertainment industry couldn't find any information about me.
One employee from Stellar Entertainment revealed that I only became a Stellar Entertainment artist one month ago.
Because of this, netizens' curiosity about me has skyrocketed.
My assistant asked if I wanted to remove the hot search, but I refused.
Why would I remove it? It's great publicity.
Let it generate more buzz for a while.
It's also a perfect way to promote my new film investment, "Helan." Meanwhile, I have been scrolling through Weibo during the time for public opinion to ferment.
As I was scrolling, a new term suddenly appeared.
#Qi Kai Roasting# My eyebrows twitched as I clicked on it.
The homepage screenshot showed the most popular comment under the entry for that ugly child of a capitalist, and Qi Kai left a comment with a fake profile: [Someone's jawline is so sharp it can slit throats.] It's obvious who that "someone" is.
After all, Gu Yan has always been marketing her exquisite jawline.
Now I know where Qi Kai's anti-fans come from.
She's really brave.
Gu Yan's fans all started attacking her, but she didn't respond with a single word.
Instead, she liked a Weibo post from Gu Yan's haters: [Ugly people cause trouble.] The attached image was a rolling eyes emoji from Gu Yan.
She gained quite a bit of popularity from it.
When people went to her Weibo to question her, she casually replied: [Just creating some waves~ Slip of the hand.] Some netizens caught on.
[Is Qi Kai starting a full-on feud with Gu Yan?] [Qi Kai's beautiful mental state doesn't surprise me anymore.] [I always feel like Qi Kai is defending that newcomer.] [Me too!] As I looked at those comments, I suddenly remembered Qi Kai.
It seemed like she was saying to me, "Don't be afraid, sis will help you vent." She laughed brightly and boldly.
