Chapter 51 Response: An Eye for an Eye

Back in the editing room, Zhou Haopeng, who had also received the news, came over and was discussing with Liu Junjie the impact of this matter on the TV series "Someday or One Day".

At the current pace, "Someday or One Day" can complete post-production in a maximum of half a month.

After that, the show is submitted for review. Once the license is obtained, it can be sold to television stations.

In such situations, if the male lead of a TV series is embroiled in a negative image, it will definitely cause concern for the TV station.

"Brother Zhou, Director Liu, don't worry, he's just a clown. I have a way to handle him."

"Xiao Lin, you need to take this seriously. It's not something to joke about. Besides, the other party is a pop diva. You need to be careful."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Alright, you don't need to come here anymore. Just focus on dealing with this matter. If you need our help, just let us know. Although we don't have much influence in the music industry, we can still help you contact the media. At least we can ensure you have a channel to speak out."

"Thanks."

After leaving National Changsheng Film and Television Company, he took the initiative to contact Hu Yanyan, a reporter from Sina Entertainment.

As soon as the call connected, Hu Yanyan's serious voice rang out, "Zixuan, where are you? I was just looking for you too."

"Sister Yan, what's wrong?"

"Didn't you call me because of Laying's criticism of you?"

"It seems we've got the same idea. How about we meet at the Blue Mountain Coffee Shop in the HD area?"

"Okay, see you at 11 o'clock."

Just as he hung up the phone, Xu Qing called again. She was still filming the TV series "The Game Within a Game" in Qingdao. "Ah Xuan, I just saw the news. Are you alright?"

"Sister Qing, don't worry, I'm fine."

"Can you tell me the specifics of the situation? Why did Laying criticize you so harshly?"

"Sister Qing, I don't know the specifics. I had no connection with her before."

"Ah Xuan, don't worry. I'll make a call later and have someone pass on a message to La Ying to ask about the situation. Also, my scenes here will be finished the day after tomorrow. When I get back, I'll help you handle it. Don't worry, although we're not in the same industry, I still have some influence."

Lin Zixuan felt a warmth in her heart. It was still the older sister who was the best. It was a pity that she couldn't use her kindness. "Sister Qing, don't worry about it. I can handle it myself."

"Ah Xuan, don't be shy. You're my brother, it's only natural for me to help you when you're in trouble, isn't it?"

"Sister Qing, you really don't need to worry, I can handle it."

"Really, what are you planning to do?"

"Am I prepared to retaliate in kind and have a war of words with her online?"

"That's a good idea. You're still a newcomer, so you can't afford to lose by going into a war of words with a pop diva like her. But do you have any media outlets speaking up for you? Should I help you contact the media?"

"Sister Qing, don't underestimate me, I can handle this."

"Okay, my Ah Xuan is a true hero, but can you really solve this?"

"Sister Qing, don't worry, I'll try it myself first. If it doesn't work, then you can step in, okay?"

"Okay, then you go and handle it first. Don't be afraid, we're in the right. Let me know if anything happens."

o

Along the way, he kept receiving concerned calls from classmates and friends such as Wen Muye and Zhou Muyin. In the end, even Zhang Guoli was alarmed and called him. He also reminded Lin Zixuan to take the situation seriously and to contact him directly if needed.

11 o'clock, Blue Mountain Coffee Shop.

Hu Yanyan rushed into a small private room.

"Zixuan, what's going on?"

"No rush, let's order a coffee first." Lin Zixuan pressed the service call button.

The waiter brought the coffee and left.

"Zixuan, tell me, what exactly happened?"

"Sister Yan, to be honest, I don't understand why La Ying is criticizing me so harshly. I've never had any interaction with her before."

"There is no love without a reason in this world, and there is no hate without a reason. She is a queen of the music scene. She would not target you like this for no reason. Since there is no interaction between you, it is possible that you have violated her interests."

"I guessed so."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Of course I'll retaliate with insults. Since she dared to do the first thing, she shouldn't blame me for doing the fifteenth."

"Great, that's how it should be. This is the Zixuan I like."

"Is this what you reporters like to do? You just want to stir up trouble?"

"Of course, audiences love watching these kinds of flame wars, and the articles get a lot of clicks, especially when big stars are involved, the buzz explodes."

"Okay, I'll provide the materials, and you'll handle the reporting. It's a win-win situation for us."

"How are you planning to retaliate? Let me remind you, the other party is a pop diva. The media resources and connections she has are on a completely different level from yours."

Your viewpoint must be tenable, otherwise the opponent's counterattack will be very strong. Also, your viewpoint must be sharp, otherwise the audience will not like to watch, and then it will be as if you have said nothing at all.

Actually, for a newcomer like you to engage in a war of words with a superstar, if your arguments are reasonable and well-founded, and you can hold your own, it's actually more advantageous for you; it can help you gain fame quickly.

"Okay, I'll give you two points, and you can polish them for me."

Hu Yanyan took out her interview notebook and said, "Go ahead."

"I have some data here: 'Autumn Never Returns,' 'Wait a Minute,' and 'Damn Tenderness.' These three songs have been released in April, and it's only been half a year since then."

The song has garnered a combined 1.9 million plays across five major music platforms, with over 2600 million downloads and even more than 800 million ringtone downloads.

"Wow, it's that tall?"

"Yes, all of this data can be found on the platform."

"That's great! It means your three songs are very popular with a wide audience."

"So my first point of refuting Laying is that if you don't like what the people like, who do you think you are?"

"This is a good point of view; it's insightful, and well-reasoned."

"Not only is it sharp, but we can also cite the original source of this viewpoint."

"Ah, and the original source too."

"Yes, that quote comes from Premier Zhou's speeches at the Symposium on Literature and Art and the Conference on Feature Film Creation. The background is very similar to the present."

"I remember now, this is Premier Zhou's speech in 1961. That's great! With this big label pinned on her, it's incredibly damaging to La Ying, and no one dares to refute it."

The first point is explosive enough; I could easily write a separate report on it. What's the second point?

"Artists cannot detach themselves from the people, and they must not forget their roots."

"Is this a rebuttal to her statement that your songs are not highbrow and only migrant workers like to listen to?"

"Yes, when did farmers come to represent low aesthetics and be looked down upon by certain groups? What would they eat without farmers?"

Some celebrities today are completely detached from the masses, constantly considering themselves superior, but if you go back three generations, weren't they all from farming backgrounds?

"This viewpoint is also good; it could easily be written as a separate article. So, I'll go back now, organize these two articles, and send them out as soon as possible."

I believe that once these two articles are published, the public outcry will be immense, enough to give Laying a run for her money. You have every chance to turn the tables.

"Don't rush. Let the dust settle. Let Laying's criticism of me simmer for a while longer, let more people know about it. If you post it tomorrow, the buzz will be bigger and the effect will be better."

"Okay, since there's no rush, how about we eat first, then go somewhere else and do something more meaningful?"

.

"Change locations, where to?"

Miss Hu Yanyan's eyes sparkled as she took off her shoes, lifted her black-stockinged feet from under the table, and teased Lin Zixuan. "You little rascal, of course we'll go to a hotel like last time."

Feeling something amiss beneath his feet, and looking at the strikingly beautiful, sophisticated woman before him, whose mature attire belied her alluring eyes, Lin Zixuan couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart. "Okay."
