Chapter 2488: Twins

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

If the leading fans earn so much money from one fan, how much would they earn from hundreds or thousands of fans?

Xiao Yu had a good relationship with the media, so he received the news before the matter blew up.

However, the impact of this matter was quite bad. Zhang Zhewen’s name would be dragged through the mud at any time.

Xiao Yu had no choice but to appease the parents and compensate them.

However, the matter had already blown up.

Many fans were asking why they didn’t receive the corresponding verification codes after spending so much money.

Most people had transferred hundreds of dollars to the leading fans. Now, many of them only received the verification code for one electronic magazine. Where was the rest of the money? Where were the rest of the magazines?

Everything was in chaos.

In order to cover up the negative impact, Zhang Zhewen had to drag Luo Lin down with him and divert the fans’ attention.

Therefore, even though Luo Lin had nothing to do with these things, a screenwriter released an announcement: [Zhang Zhewen and Luo Lin will be paired together in another project. The brotherhood that everyone is looking forward to will definitely come true. Everyone, please look forward to the news.]

Zhang Zhewen had spent money to pay off this screenwriter.

Sure enough, the fans’ attention was quickly diverted. No one cared about electronic magazines anymore. They were all asking when they would be paired up, what project it was, and when they would join the cast.

They forgot about whether they had received the correct verification code or not.

The screenwriter replied to the comments one by one: [I don’t know yet, but this matter has been confirmed. I think highly of the two of them and like them very much. Zhang Zhewen’s acting skills are very good. He’s very good. With him around, there’s a stabilizing force. As for Luo Lin, although his acting skills are still very immature and he usually relies on Zhang Zhewen to guide and teach him, he’s good-looking, after all. Therefore, they both have a bright future.]

The screenwriter’s words were too obvious.

Luo Lin’s fans could tell at a glance that something was wrong.

A few rational fans could also tell that the screenwriter was criticizing Luo Lin’s acting skills!

However, most of the fans agreed with her. [You’re right. That’s indeed the

case. Zhewen is really amazing. As for Luo Lin, his acting skills can only be displayed when he’s with Zhewen, so they have to be paired together!] [They’re indeed good friends! I look forward to their reunion.]

Some people pointed out the implication of the screenwriter’s words. [Hey, isn’t it too much to completely deny a person’s acting skills? Especially when Luo Lin portrayed Baili Tang so well.]

The screenwriter said righteously: [I didn’t say that his portrayal of Baili Tang is bad. It’s precisely because Zhewen had guided him that he didn’t perform poorly in the drama. But that doesn’t mean that he could’ve been as good in the drama if not for Zhewen.]

Luo Lin’s fans were so angry that they stepped forward to refute her.

However, she insisted that she was being reasonable and continued to defend her point.

The shippers stepped out as well. [Is this how you express your love for Luo Lin? The screenwriter is giving Luo Lin resources, but you’re chasing her away. Who do you think you are? You’re interfering in Luo Lin’s career!]

The internet was in an uproar.

Director Gao and Producer Niu also reposted the screenwriter’s Weibo post.

They didn’t read the contents carefully. The reason why they reposted it was because they wanted Luo Lin and Zhang Zhewen to be as close as possible.

After all, Producer Niu wanted to hold a few more meet-and-greets to earn money, and Director Gao wanted to use Luo Lin’s popularity to help Zhang Zhewen’s new drama, Aged Police, to quickly attract investors!

When they realized that the screenwriter’s words were getting more and more biased, the two of them thought for a while and deleted their reposts. After all, they still had to rely on Luo Lin to earn money, right?

Xiao Yu said in front of Zhang Zhewen, “Zhewen, isn’t this screenwriter a little too arrogant? She’ll cause trouble for you.”

“Has the impact of the negative news from earlier dissipated?” Zhang Zhewen asked.

“It’s gone. Most of the fans in this batch are clueless. Once such a thing happens, they won’t care about other things anymore. There are some people asking about the electronic magazines, but they’re drowned out by other posts.

They can’t cause any trouble.”

“Then it’s settled, no?” Zhang Zhewen said. “What’s there to worry about?”

He was arrogant and did not take these things seriously at all.

As long as it was beneficial to him, he did not mind doing it.

It was just a matter of spending a little money.

Xiao Yu advised him, “Sometimes, it’s better to retreat a little. If things get out of hand, I’m afraid the people in the industry will keep a respectful distance from us in the future.’

“I’m so popular now. Are you afraid that others won’t work with us?”

“That’s not true…”

Before Xiao Yu could finish, Zhang Zhewen no longer wanted to listen.

Xiao Yu could only let it go, but he was also a little worried. At the moment, Zhang Zhewen received very few scripts, and endorsements were gradually decreasing.

Many female artistes did not want to film with Zhang Zhewen, afraid that they would be dealt a huge blow by his methods.

Moreover, he tended to reap everything for himself. Others were very afraid of his methods.

However, on second thought, Zhang Zhewen had Zheng Mengvvei and Han Tian’s backing now. He did not have to worry about the subsequent resources at all. As long as he continued to maintain his current popularity, he would not have to worry.

So what if he used Luo Lin at the critical moment?

Luo Lin returned to the hotel after filming his night scenes. He opened Weibo and glanced at the situation online.

Soon, he saw the contents of the trending articles that were reposted to the front page of his Weibo.

In the past, no matter how many trending searches there were about him or how many people bashed him, he did not care much.

Being in the entertainment industry, an artiste would definitely have to sacrifice some personal privacy.

Being scolded was almost inevitable.

However, his acting skills were still trampled on by people in the industry, such as Producer Niu and Director Gao. This was a first for him. Even many slightly famous actors might not have encountered such a thing.

Acting skills were the foundation of actors. They were the most important thing.

Actors could be bashed by outsiders, fans, and haters, but the weight of being criticized by producers and directors who had worked with them before was completely different. Luo Lin smiled.

Great…

He subconsciously swiped her finger and looked again. It seemed that Producer Niu and Director Gao had already deleted the reposts.

Great…

They also knew that deliberately stepping on Luo Lin would not only hurt Luo Lin but also their image and reputation.

In that case, who would dare to continue working with them in the future?

They were cunning people.

A moment later, Luo Lin’s phone rang..
