The night before, Xiao Yao had accompanied Tim Haggis to drink at the hotel bar, and he hadn't drunk much. Early the next morning, Xiao Yao got up early as usual.

Although Xiao Yao won the bet last night against Tim Haggis and won the bet, but Tim Haggis drank a lot last night, Xiao Yao didn't plan to wake up Tim Haggis so early this morning and pull him to exercise together, but what Xiao Yao didn't expect was that when he came out of the bedroom, the bedroom door where Tim Haggis lived next to him also happened to open at the same time, and Tim Haggis walked out in sportswear quite energetically.

"I am willing to lose the bet!" Tim Haggis looked at Xiao Yao with a strange look in his eyes, and said to Xiao Yao in a muffled voice, "Go to the gym with you to exercise!"

"But you were drunk last night," Xiao Yao said as he looked at Tim Haggis, "You weren't stimulated by me yesterday and wanted to get back to the way you were in the commando before and then fight me to save face, that's why you're so active in exercising, right?"

Last night, when Tim Haggis was resting in the ring after the fight, he told Xiao Yao about his previous time in the commando, claiming that if he was still in the commando, he would definitely not lose to Xiao Yao. At that time, Xiao Yao's reaction was just a smile, noncommittal.

"Isn't that what you want?" Tim Haggis looked at Xiao Yao and said, "What, scared?"

"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "When you go back to practice, I will return to Huaxia early." ”

"I'll go to China to find you on vacation!" said Tim Haggis.

"Okay, welcome at any time!" Xiao Yao said, "It's okay if you don't come to me to fight!"

In the days that followed, Xiao Yao and Tim Haggis lived a relatively regular life. Work out together in the morning, go to two casinos during the day, and relax in the evening. Aside from Tim Haggis's win-loss and night-time activities at the casino, which are a little bit uneventful.

In the past few days, in China, Xiao Yao has once again become a hot topic of discussion in the media and the public.

Under Matt's efficient arrangement, a few days ago, a well-known American gossip entertainment media reported the news of Xiao Yao's entry and exit from the Las Vegas casino.

Although these media mainly report the gossip news of entertainment stars, their reports have a good reputation in terms of authenticity, and the reports are basically real hammers, and they are also an important source for some other national media to reprint reports on the American entertainment industry. Entertainment gossip media in many countries will also pay attention to the news of these American gossip media through the Internet and other means.

The news report about Xiao Yao, a young top star in China, naturally attracted the attention of Huaxia entertainment media.

The last time Xiao Yao appeared on TV was in the behind-the-scenes footage of the show "Dancing with the Stars" to visit Sun Tingting and others. At that time, the crew of "Beautiful Sister" was in the filming period. The last time there was news related to Xiao Yao in the media, it was a media reporter who reported that the crew of "Beautiful Sister" had been completed.

After the crew was completed, a reporter interviewed director Chen Jun, and during the interview, he also asked Xiao Yao, who was one of the producers, whether he would participate in the post-production of the TV series. Director Chen Jun's answer is that Xiao Yao has already prepared the soundtrack and OST songs for the TV series and handed them over to the soundtrack, but other than that, he will not participate in post-production. Director Chen Jun also told reporters as if complaining by the way that Xiao Yao had given himself a holiday and went on a trip.

Although director Chen Jun did not reveal where Xiao Yao traveled, when he went out to travel, he naturally did not work. From the point of view of time, it is possible that Xiao Yao is in Las Vegas at this time, and logically, the American media does not seem to have a reason to use fake news to discredit Xiao Yao, and even from the statement of the American media, their reports do not seem to be black Xiao Yao, so after this news comes out, the credibility is still very high.

So, just a few hours after the reports of these American media came out, some gossip media and self-media in Huaxia reprinted these news reports, so that the news of Xiao Yao's entry and exit from the casino in Las Vegas reached Huaxia.

On the one hand, the news headlines are not particularly "explosive", and the content is just a normal narrative, and there are no critical or judgmental comments to express a position, on the other hand, the American people are relatively open to rich people going to casinos, and Xiao Yao, a Chinese star, playing in a Las Vegas casino is not a rare thing in their eyes, so the popularity of these news in the United States is relatively limited.

In China, the situation is very different.

First of all, when the gossip media in China reprinted the news of the foreign media, they would explain the source, but not necessarily according to the news of the foreign media. In many cases, editors or reporters in Huaxia rewrite a new story based on it when reprinting the news, with their own play. For example, going in and out of more than a dozen casinos in a few days, spending six or seven hours a day in the casino, or even more than ten hours, these ordinary positions in the original news text were put forward by them and put in key places, and evaluative words such as addiction and sinking also appeared in the headline.

Secondly, although there are also cities in China with legal casinos, the existence of that casino has its own special historical reasons, and it is also different from the system in mainland China, so the Chinese people are against gambling at least on the surface.

In the minds of many people, public figures have an advantageous position that ordinary people do not have, occupy more resources, and get more remuneration, so they should also assume more social responsibility. Public figures represent social trends and fashions. Due to the wide attention, his behavior, words and deeds have played a certain exemplary role in society. As a public figure, one of its social responsibilities is to cherish and maintain its own image, set a good example for the public, and play a positive role in demonstrating to the public.

Entertainment stars are also public figures, and they are one of the more influential groups, so naturally this should be the case. At the same time, because this group is more well-known, it has more influence and receives more attention. When something happens that damages the public image, the reaction of the media and the public is even stronger.

Of course, different celebrities, the public's perception and requirements for them are different. For example, if a media reporter takes a photo of smoking in private, if it is an adult star with a very personality and distinctive characteristics, the public will basically not have any criticism, or will praise him for his handsome appearance smoking, but if it is a minor or just adult star, many people's attitudes are different.

In fact, just before Xiao Yao's news broke, a hot news in Huaxia Entertainment was that a young star smoked at a private party. First of all, smoking is not illegal, it is just a bad habit. Secondly, although the teenage star has just turned eighteen, he is already an adult after all. However, because the teenage star became famous at a young age and has always been a sunny and warm good baby image, after the news of his private smoking was exposed, many people, including his fans, could not accept it, and a large number of comments criticized the star's smoking on the Internet.

Strictly speaking, Xiao Yao was still a minor when he became famous, even if he was not a child star, he was still famous at a young age. However, since Xiao Yao became famous, he has done a lot of unexpected things, and in the eyes of the media and the public, he has never had the image of a good baby. If Xiao Yao was photographed smoking by a media reporter, there might not be much turmoil, but if he was photographed gambling, the situation would be different.

In China, gambling is a crime, this kind of behavior is much more serious than smoking, even if gambling in a country city where gambling is legal, without violating the laws of China, it is also a very bad behavior in the eyes of most Chinese people.

Although Xiao Yao is not a good baby image, on the whole, the image is still relatively positive. Such a star with a positive image, but lingering in various casinos in the United States, indulging in gambling, makes people feel a great contrast, and is naturally very eye-catching. After the Chinese media reprinted and commented on the relevant news in the American media, it not only made the news spread quickly in China, but also aroused great attention and discussion among the domestic media and the public in China.

In terms of popularity and coffee position in the entertainment industry, Xiao Yao is much older than the young star who was photographed smoking by reporters. Therefore, after Xiao Yao's news really spread, the news of teenage celebrities smoking was quickly squeezed out of the hot search. If this incident was not a hype directed and acted by the teenage star team, the teenage star and his team would have been grateful to Xiao Yao in their hearts.

Some people often say that what kind of celebrity idol there is, what kind of fans there are.

Compared with the fans of the well-behaved baby teenage star, Xiao Yao's fans have always been much tougher. In terms of attitude, they are accustomed to Xiao Yao's various "unusual" behaviors, and they are not as unacceptable to Xiao Yao's behavior as fans of good baby teenage stars.

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yao's fans rarely tear up fans of other stars on the Internet for Xiao Yao, but instead help others ridicule and complain about their idol Xiao Yao, and some things that are not too important in the eyes of fans, such as the controversy over Xiao Yao's performance in the show, or the fake news that is made up at first glance, Xiao Yao's fans even disdain to pay attention to it. But if it comes to a major event involving Xiao Yao's image and reputation, such as plagiarism, Xiao Yao's fans will still try their best to protect Xiao Yao and will not be indifferent.

So, when public opinion on the Huaxia Internet was biased towards criticizing and criticizing Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao's fans began to speak for Xiao Yao on the Internet.

First of all, some fans emphasize that gambling is illegal in China, but gambling in casinos in the United States, especially in Las Vegas, is not illegal. As a world-famous gambling city, including the Chinese who regard gambling as a crime, how many people who go to Las Vegas to play do not enter the casino? Xiao Yao was just photographed by reporters.

Secondly, celebrities should indeed pay attention to their words and deeds, but this does not mean that Xiao Yao, a star, has to be a saint. Gambling is indeed a behavior that is not worth advocating, but in China, there are not many people who have actually participated in gambling. For example, in the Chinese entertainment industry, it is rumored that there are many celebrities who love to play mahjong.

The news came from the United States, and the photo can obviously be seen to be taken secretly, even if the person in the photo is indeed Xiao Yao, it is only Xiao Yao's personal behavior in private, and there is no intention to promote this behavior and let everyone gamble. How different is this from those who ask friends to play mahjong in private?

In addition, when it comes to playing mahjong, when Xiao Yao said in the Eva swimsuit special that he wanted to teach Eva supermodel to play mahjong, most of the Chinese people who saw it were applauding, saying that he was promoting Chinese culture. In fact, mahjong is also a gambling device, why did no one say that Xiao Yao was a gambler at that time?

In addition to those die-hard fans who helped Xiao Yao speak, there were also some fans who maintained a relatively neutral attitude. That is, I did not fully believe the media reports, did not follow the trend of public opinion that now occupies the main body on the Internet to criticize Xiao Yao's bad gambling, and waited for the official explanation or explanation of Xiao Yao himself or Xiao Yao's team.

is not only Xiao Yao's fans, with the current level of excitement of this topic on the Internet, many media and a large number of ordinary melon-eating people are also waiting for the official response of Xiao Yao himself or Xiao Yao's studio team.

Xiao Yao's studio is for him alone. When this kind of news first came out, the relevant personnel of the studio had already noticed it, and quickly fed back the news to the person in charge.

As Xiao Yao's agent and head of the studio, Fang still knew of course that Xiao Yao traveled abroad to relax after the crew was finished, and also knew that Xiao Yao went to the United States, but he didn't know which city Xiao Yao went to and what he did during his vacation.

Regarding the news report about Xiao Yao's entry and exit from the casino, Fang still didn't feel much surprised, because she was familiar with Xiao Yao's character. She knew that it was indeed possible that Xiao Yao had gone to Las Vegas, and that if he went to Las Vegas, he would almost certainly go to the casino. However, she also knew that Xiao Yao would definitely not be as addicted to gambling as the news said.

Fang still concluded that Xiao Yao was not addicted to gambling. Xiao Yao just went to the casino to play, if he didn't indulge in gambling, it wouldn't be a big deal, plus the news hadn't had much impact at that time, and public opinion wasn't what it is now, so Fang still chose the most usual way to deal with it, that is, to ignore it.

But what Fang still didn't expect was that just a few days later, the topic of this matter on the Internet exploded, and most of the public opinion was criticizing or even criticizing Xiao Yao. Many netizens, including Xiao Yao's fans, asked Xiao Yao himself or the studio to give an official response, and the reporter's call for an interview almost blew up the phone calls of the relevant departments of the studio.

At this time, Fang still knew that he couldn't deal with it.

Although Fang is still Xiao Yao's agent and the person in charge of Xiao Yao's studio, in essence, Fang is still working for Xiao Yao, and many things cannot help Xiao Yao.

Generally, when celebrities encounter this situation, even if the brokerage team has a plan to deal with it, they need to communicate and discuss with the celebrity himself and ask the celebrity to cooperate. Xiao Yao and Fang still have this special relationship between agents and celebrities, and it is even more impossible to deal with it without knowing Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao is now on vacation. During the holidays, Xiao Yao didn't take over work, unless there was something particularly important, Fang still wouldn't call Xiao Yao to disturb him on vacation, but now, Fang still didn't bother.

Before explaining how the studio staff responded, Fang still dialed Xiao Yao's phone and contacted Xiao Yao, who was far away in the United States.
