Compared to the intimate interaction between the two of them, Lu Zhen looked a little awkward. She was the female lead in the drama and the woman Song Xiao really loved as the Ninth Prince. However, in reality, the Ninth Prince was passionately involved with the second female lead.
Although reality was reality and television dramas were television dramas, the interaction between the male and female leads in reality would also affect the audience’s feelings for television dramas.
A few years ago, a modern crime-solving romance drama had a very good response. The male and female leads had become popular from the drama to reality. When the two of them connected to the live-stream, the audience also felt very sweet.
However, the male lead’s real girlfriend in reality was not satisfied. She posted on Weibo many times to show off how much the male lead loved her from all aspects of life. When the television drama was popular, she would write a love diary online almost every day to prove that she was the true love of the male lead in reality.
The real girlfriend’s actions disgusted the audience. They originally liked couples for fun and did not ask the male and female leads to be together in reality. They did not expect the real girlfriend to be so petty. It really made people not like her at all!
The male and female leads were very embarrassed by the real girlfriend’s commotion. They did not dare to interact during the live-stream. The live-stream comments had also changed from being harmonious and happy at the beginning to persuading the male lead to stop filming and hurry back to make his wife happy.
Originally, with the popularity of this drama, the male lead could become famous. In the future, there would be more high-quality resources looking for him. However, because of his girlfriend’s willfulness, the audience’s good impression of him almost disappeared. In the end, the viewership ratings of that drama plummeted.
There was nothing wrong with the real girlfriend’s actions, she was just emphasizing her identity. However, in the entertainment industry of Country Z, such things would make the audience very angry. They would think that she was petty and insisted on breaking up the couple of the male and female leads when the television drama was popular.
Now, Lu Zhen’s biggest problem was that she and the male lead had almost no interaction in reality. Some of their “couple fans” cried on the platform almost all day and begged them to start a live-stream interaction. After all, in the original novel of this movie, their love could be said to be unprecedented! Now, the male lead and the supporting actress had started hyping up as a couple. If this continued, perhaps when the television drama aired, the female general played by Lu Zhen would give people the feeling that she was a “interferer”! Not to mention reputation, it would be good if she didn’t get scolded.
Lu Zhen looked at the heated discussion on the Internet and put down her cell phone.
“Sister Zhenzhen, what should we do? Lu Rou is too disgusting. She relied on your relationship to enter the production team and become the second female lead. Now, she even has to be involved in marketing with the male lead. She’s simply stepping on you to climb up! Xiaoxiao said anxiously.
“If she wants to step on me and climb up, it depends on whether she has the ability.” Lu Zhen sneered. “Doesn’t she want to be popular? Then I’ll help her again.”
Weibo at midnight was still extremely lively. Netizens who had stayed up late refreshed the webpage and participated in the hot topics created by the celebrities.
Suddenly, a popular V account named “@Demon Hunter Master” posted on Weibo—
“A certain female celebrity, stop creating hype. You already have a boyfriend, but you still want to create a couple with the male lead. You’ve snatched someone else’s boyfriend in reality, and you even want to snatch someone else’s man in a television drama. How funny!”
@Demon Hunter Master” was a heavyweight informant in the entertainment industry. 90% of the news he exposed was true. In the battles of public opinion in the entertainment industry, Demon Hunter Master’s reputation was getting higher and higher. By now, he had more than 14 million fans on Weibo, almost comparable to an A-list celebrity.
As soon as Demon Hunter Master posted on Weibo, the comments below immediately refreshed crazily—
“A certain female celebrity? There are many female celebrities in the entertainment industry. Which one is it? I’m looking for entertainment gossip everywhere. I’m so anxious!”
“Previous poster, haven’t you seen the trending topic recently? The Demon Hunter Master is just short of smearing that female celebrity’s name on your face. Can’t you guess?
“You don’t dare to say it, right? Then let me say it! Isn’t it just Lu Rou? She and Song Xiao have been popular recently. Demon Hunter Master said that she snatched someone else’s man in a television drama.. This should be it!”
