Chapter 113: The Price of Being Popular

Ren Pengfei, the protagonist of "The First Knife in the World", is a popular first-line student.

Won the annual popularity champion of Vbo Night for two consecutive years, and last year won the Flying Eagle Award, Xinghui Award, and Vbo Night three popularity awards, which are in the limelight for a while.

Today's Ren Pengfei has both national popularity and a huge fan base, and can be described as the hottest actor in the Chinese entertainment industry.

That's the limit of what a young artist can hope for.

He thought that he could be popular until he was in his 30s, and then won a few awards for the emperor and the actor, and after the 40s, he advanced to the senior of the entertainment industry of "both virtue and art", and his life was complete.

However, it turns out that there are so many satisfactory things in this world.

On January 28th, just when "The First Knife in the World" was on the air, and various data were flying all the way, a sudden news hit Ren Pengfei's head like a thunderbolt from the blue.

"Ren Pengfei Island Honey Club is a married artist, suspected of meddling in other people's marriages."

Less than half an hour after this news appeared, the popularity soared all the way and quickly topped the hot search lists of major websites.

Ren Pengfei heard about this at 3 o'clock in the morning, and the whole person was stunned.

It is true that he has just returned from a vacation with his girlfriend from the island of Jusan.

However, it is neither a tourist attraction nor a check-in point for new influencers.

Ren Pengfei stayed there for more than two weeks, barely seeing a single Chinese face.

Moreover, if this kind of thing is photographed by the paparazzi, their first choice is generally to sell it to the party, because in this way they can sell it for the highest price.

Unless he's the one on the ship.

Breaking down oneself is the only way to maximize their benefits.

"You don't have to explain anything to me now, I'll just ask you a word," In the middle of the night, the agent ran to Ren Pengfei's residence anxiously and asked him, "Is this thing true or false?" ”

Ren Pengfei opened his mouth, hesitated, but nodded.

Broker support.

"You, you're so angry with me!"

The agent was afraid that the conversation between the two would be heard by others, so he shouted in a suppressed voice: "I told you a long time ago, everything must be reported to the company, but you don't say anything so important!" ”

"Now that this is happening, the company is not prepared at all, how can you let me deal with it for you?!"

Ren Pengfei stiffened his head and said, "What is there to deal with?" ”

"I didn't get involved in other people's marriages, Linlin divorced two years ago, but it has not been made public, she was single when I met her."

"I have a clear conscience!"

Seeing that this guy is still so iron-headed at this time, the agent simply tore his heart.

As a result, early the next morning, when Xu Zhen was watching entertainment news, he found that there was only one piece of news on the penguin headlines: Ren Pengfei's love affair was real.

And the woman is still a married female singer Xia Linlin, who is six years older than him.

Although the two parties have come forward to clarify that Xia Linlin had agreed to divorce as early as the end of the previous year, and there was no cheating in marriage, this matter is still like a depth bomb, stirring up public opinion on the whole network.

"Unbelievable...... Who is bad and why is it Charlene? If you are blind, you can go for treatment! ”

"Ren Pengfei and I****, my mother is disgusted! Good bye! ”

"I cried until I had low blood pressure when I woke up in the morning, and now I'm still lying in bed, and my hands are shaking when I post V-blogs...... Why are fans so cheap and worthless in their love for you? Why can you prick our hearts so justifiably?! ”

"All the sincerity over the years has been fed to the dogs! Ren Pengfei, you can't die well! ”

“……”

Xu Zhen looked at the extreme messages under the news, and gradually stopped eating.

This...... What's going on?

Isn't it just a relationship, why is it scolded like this?

Xu Zhen brushed for less than 10 minutes, and was shocked by all kinds of fancy curses.

If the morning news is just the tip of the iceberg of human confusion, then in the next few days, Xu Zhen can be regarded as truly seeing the powerful power of online violence.

Those "injured" sunspots have begun to dig deep into Ren Pengfei's various black materials, including fighting with others when he was in school, smoking, drunkenness, traffic accidents, how many ex-girlfriends and rumored girlfriends he has had, and so on.

One powder tops ten black, and the fans who have taken off their fans are even more amazing.

"The First Knife in the World", which originally had a score of 8.6 on Tofu.com, was swiped with tens of thousands of one-star negative reviews in just three days, and the score dropped directly to 2.2.

opened the webcast version of this drama, and the barrage floating all over the screen was all cursing to Ren Pengfei, so that people who wanted to watch the show were so disgusted that they had to close the barrage.

What's worse is that from the 30th, the plot of "The First Knife in the World" has ended the story unit of Cheng Shifei, and it is about to enter the part of Ren Tianya.

I don't know if the sunspots affected Ren Pengfei's reputation, or if they bought data to hit them, the ratings that had been rising began to decline.

If this continues, I am afraid that it will only be a matter of time before I fall to the first place.

"Ah Zhen, let me ask for your opinion."

At noon on the 31st, Qiao Feng asked Xu Zhen: "Now you have seen the situation of Ren Pengfei, Mr. Lin asked me yesterday if I would like to properly adjust the roles of several leading actors." ”

"They have the intention of shortening Ren Pengfei's story."

"But then the number of episodes is not enough. Zhong Tao's part has been broadcast, and he can't move anymore, so he can only stretch your part. ”

Xu Zhen, who was working on the question, heard this, looked back at Qiao Feng, and waited for him to continue.

Qiao Feng hesitated and said: "There are pros and cons to this matter, the advantage is that your role has increased, and the position will change from the original male number three to the male number one." ”

"But the disadvantage is that it was re-cut in a hurry, and it may not be as effective as the version that is being played now, and there is also a suspicion of robbing while the fire is burning, which may give you black."

"What's your opinion?"

After hearing these words, Xu Zhen turned around, and while continuing to do the question, he said in a calm tone: "Of course, the final decision is to listen to the company, but if you ask me, my opinion is not to change." ”

"Of course, there are people who hate Ren Pengfei, but there are even more people who like this drama."

"Why do you want to affect the quality of the whole show because those people think Ren Pengfei is an eyesore?"

"As for whether it's the first male or the third male, I don't think it matters, the most important thing is that the story is good."

"Stretching my role for no reason, causing the plot to drag on, wouldn't it be worth the loss."

Qiao Feng smiled with satisfaction when he heard this.

"Okay, I know," he nodded, got up and left Xu Zhen's study, and said, "Then you continue to do the question, and I'll go and reply to the company." ”
