Chapter 321

Duan Duan Jiangping was still chattering away, trying to persuade him.

"How much investment you want, how to split the shares, it's all up to you! I'll still be your producer and your assistant."

"At worst... didn't you want me to play a corpse last time?"

"I... I'm throwing caution to the wind!"

"No!" Su Meng flatly refused him.

"That was the past; now I have a better candidate for playing a corpse, so you can step aside!"

"Alright, let me think it over first."

After hanging up the phone, Su Meng was also somewhat hesitant.

Sigh, as a cheat with a system, the choices were simply too numerous...

Although the Spring Festival Gala had already ended, its influence had only just begun to spread.

In past years, the Spring Festival Gala was like a chicken rib, but this year it had changed its appearance.

With the performance of "Buying a Cane," it had unquestionably become the biggest highlight of the entire gala.

The song "Giving You a Bit of Color" had also, in a crushing manner, instantly landed at the top of the download chart.

Beyond that, Sister Zhu's beauty in "Dingbu Bridge" had also sparked considerable discussion.

If one only looked at these, it could indeed be considered full of highlights.

Yet these topics, which would have been absolute hotspots in previous years, were now dull and colorless on the hot search list this year.

For no other reason than that the topic #Su Meng Bombs the Spring Festival Gala# was simply too eye-catching.

If an ordinary person complained about the Spring Festival Gala, it wouldn't amount to much.

But the problem was, Su Meng's identity was too sensitive!

He was already a top-tier celebrity, let alone having just made a huge splash on the Spring Festival Gala stage?

In an instant, netizens were discussing non-stop.

They all turned their gaze toward the other protagonist in this incident—Yangshi.

As a colossal entity, being publicly offended by a star, how would Yangshi react?

In the entertainment circle, almost everyone was watching.

There were those who were curious, those who were envious, and those who took malicious joy in the situation, the latter being countless in number.

After all, recently Su Meng had almost monopolized all the traffic; who wouldn't be envious, jealous, and hateful?

But what was strange was that, facing this surging tide of public opinion, Yangshi had yet to react for a long time.

This also left the crowd of onlookers greatly disappointed.

Someone is cursing you to your face; shouldn't you be furious with thunderous anger?

What does ignoring it as if it didn't exist mean?

Yangshi stood as stable as Taishan, but some people could not sit still.

Those prominent figures in the entertainment circle were each silent as winter cicadas, daring not to get involved.

After all, although Su Meng had offended Yangshi, the netizens supported him greatly.

Speaking out to support Su Meng meant offending Yangshi.

Launching a campaign against Su Meng would certainly offend the many netizens.

So they simply decided it was none of their business and kept a high profile.

Instead, some unknown little stars became active in their thinking.

This was an absolutely perfect opportunity to ride the wave of traffic!

In their view, Yangshi not speaking out was simply because Gu Ji about their own identity made it hard to speak.

But secretly, they probably had already put Su Meng on a blacklist!

Perhaps even the real big demon, the Broadcasting Administration, was already eyeing Su Meng!

Since that was the case, what more was there to say?

We must stand out and firmly support Yangshi!

Since Yangshi is inconvenient to speak, let me fire the first shot!

Perhaps I might even catch the eye of Yang Mother!

What? You say I'll be cursed by netizens?

Being cursed is still traffic!

Soon, the first person stepped forward.

A third-tier little star named Wang Dafei suddenly posted a message on Weibo.

"This year's Spring Festival Gala was brilliant, fully showcasing the new face of Dragon Nation in the new era."

"The Spring Festival Gala is a sacred stage; appearing on it is every artist's greatest desire."

"If one is fortunate enough to appear on the Spring Festival Gala to perform a sketch or something, one should be grateful, thankful that the Spring Festival Gala gave such an opportunity."

"Instead of being a ingrate who eats meat when holding the bowl and curses his mother when putting it down!"

"Speaking of gratitude, every one of us should be grateful."

"Grateful for the sacrifices of the martyrs, which allowed us to have such a happy and fulfilling life."

"Sometimes I often think, if I could return to that era, I would also follow the martyrs' example and press forward!"

"Although I cannot truly go back, fortunately as an actor, I can portray all of this on camera."

"The anti-Japanese war drama I starred in, 'Time Travel: I Lead Special Forces to Fight the Japanese Devils,' is currently airing on Dongshan Satellite TV."

"Let us pay tribute to the martyrs together!"

……

Although he didn't mention Su Meng by name, the words practically gave away his ID number!

After all, he was only a third-tier star; although his fame wasn't great, he still had some level of attention.

As soon as this news broke, it instantly shot to the top of the hot search list.

This was the first artist publicly acknowledged to have jumped out!

Below the topic, countless netizens quickly left comments.

"??? I just want to ask, who is this?"

"Seems like some oily-haired, powdered-faced pretty boy?"

"What kind of trash is daring to jump out and ride the heat now? Where is the Master's army?"

"Damn! This is blatantly riding the traffic; I must support Master Su... oh no, Su the Great Swindler."

"Time Travel: I Lead Special Forces to Fight the Japanese Devils? What kind of trash is this? An anti-Japanese god drama?"

"To put it plainly, isn't this just riding the heat and traffic to pull viewers for his own trash TV drama?"

"Time Travel: I Lead Special Forces to Fight the Japanese Devils? Only someone with shit in their brain would watch this stuff!"

"You haven't seen this drama, yet you dare talk nonsense? Brother Dafei is so handsome in the TV drama!"

"Alright, I admit I'm curious now; I want to see what kind of TV drama dares to ride Su Meng's traffic."

"Brother Dafei is invincible! Brother Dafei is so handsome!"

"Exactly, exactly, especially that hand-tearing-the-Japanese-devils routine; it was so satisfying to watch!"

Wang Dafei, looking at his exploding follower count, was already smiling so wide his mouth wouldn't close.

This first pot of soup has so much meat!

As for whether those followers who clicked follow came to scold him, who cares?

The person in charge of Dongshan Satellite TV was also a bit stunned.

How could such a trash TV drama suddenly see its viewership explode?

……

"Teacher Su, you've been ridden for heat."

Bai Xiao Ling fiddled with her phone, her eyebrows knitting slightly together.

"Is that so?" Su Meng didn't care, saying it indifferently.

"Sigh, when a person is famous, there are many rumors; stay calm, stay calm."

But Bai Xiao Ling wore a face full of indignation.

"If it were an ordinary person riding the heat, it would be one thing, but what kind of trash is this?"
