59: He is not sad that his relatives and friends are sad, damn, the bond between humans

Chen Fang raised a hand to cover his forehead, sighed deeply, and after composing himself, replied:

"I won't arrive in the Capital until evening, so let's eat on Sunday night. As for the cat, it's quite cute, you can keep it. I often travel for programs and can't take care of pets."

Chen Fang sent another message: "Don't worry, I have methods and trump cards to handle the current situation. Rest assured."

As soon as the message was sent, a reply popped up.

【Dad】"Hmm, we have enough money. If you feel the world is too dangerous, just come home and write songs. Being a reclusive master behind the scenes is pretty cool too."

Chen Fang felt a warmth in his heart. "Okay, you two get some rest early. Don't worry."

After sending it, he placed his phone on the table, leaned back in his chair, and let out a long sigh.

He wasn't unhappy about tonight's events; after all, this was practically helping him increase the buzz for tomorrow night, giving him negative emotional value.

It was just the concern from his friends and family that made him a little sad.

Damn it, the bonds of humanity!

Chen Fang wasn't bothered by the rumors in his heart.

But in the next room, Xie Yunxuan felt a chill deep in his heart.

Xie Yunxuan lay in bed, looking at the comments that had suddenly appeared on his phone tonight, and couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow, like a rabbit lamenting the death of a fox.

Someone must be targeting him, right? They specifically chose the timing after the adventures ended tomorrow to attack Chen Fang.

Although he didn't like Chen Fang, as a fellow idol, he couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation, like a cunning rabbit being cooked after its usefulness.

Xie Yunxuan slightly raised his head.

Wait, no, he wasn't a running dog!

Forget it, just look out for himself and go to sleep.

Xie Yunxuan put down his phone and glanced out the window. The production team must be working overtime tonight, right?

...

The stilt house behind the guest's guesthouse was brightly lit, a stark contrast to the tranquil mountains behind it.

The easternmost room on the first floor of the stilt house was used by the production team as a temporary meeting room.

At this moment, eight staff members sat on both sides of the wooden long table. The atmosphere was oppressive, so quiet that the chirping of insects outside the window could be heard clearly.

Director Liu Yang sat at the head of the table, his brows tightly furrowed as he stared at the screen.

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening broke the deadly silence. The Director turned his head to see producer Zhuang Ning walking in quickly.

The Director asked, "What did Minister Qin say? Suppress the news, or let it run free?"

Zhuang Ning sat down next to him. "He told us to decide for ourselves."

The Director rubbed his temples.

Chen Fang had shown him some of theclarify (clarification) materials. Tomorrow night, he was almost certain they could give the netizens a big reversal.

Suppressing the news now meant playing it safe.

If they let it run free, the buzz tomorrow night would be even more explosive, but the corpse driving ceremony during the day would be difficult.

The Director covered his forehead and thought for a while, then lowered his hand, his gaze sweeping over everyone. "Don't suppress the news, keep the buzz."

He looked at the Assistant Director. "Xiang Haitao, Assistant Director, contact our chief director and transfer some bullet screen administrators to our interactive operations department. Tomorrow morning, during the corpse driving ceremony, make sure to manage the bullet screens in the live broadcast room properly, and don't let Chen Fang's haters affect the atmosphere of the live broadcast room."

Xiang Haitao, Assistant Director quickly took notes. "Okay, I'll contact them right away."

After the Director arranged some more work, he announced the meeting adjourned, and everyone went to prepare.

As others left the meeting room, Zhuang Ning asked, "Director Liu, how big is this matter now?"

Director Liu waved his hand. "Not big. Netizens are already suffering from information fatigue. Compared to when he first collapsed, it's nothing. It's just stinky."

"What's the current buzz like?"

Director Liu clicked on the social platform's trending topics list, scrolled down from the top, and pointed at the screen: "On the entertainment chart, there's one at thirteen, and one at twenty-seven."

Zhuang Ning moved her chair closer to him. "What are they all saying? Give me some psychological preparation."

Director Liu sighed. "His fans, those who were going to un-fan, already have. Those who were going to turn on him, already have. Now that the buzz is picking up, the netizens participating in the discussion are either just for entertainment, or they're projecting their own experiences to vent their emotions."

As he spoke, he moved the computer screen towards her.

Zhuang Ning looked closely and indeed, many people weren't even discussing the incident itself; they were just playing with memes for entertainment.

【I have to say, only someone like him deserves to be called a 'sea king'; ugly ones can only be called 'water ghosts'.】

【My brother has never been in love; those were all just friends. Haven't you ever played house with two people when you were little?】

There were also some who were clearly his haters.

【New song? He must have hired a million-dollar vocal tuner, right?】

【What's so good about it? Just selling family sentiment.】

Un-fanning and turning on him shouldn't be this severe; these are probably fans of Chen Fang's rivals. In the fan economy, fans are very crazy and will do anything for their idol. It's not uncommon for them to go too far and hurt their own idol.

When he was popular, his fans also argued with other people's fans. Now that he has collapsed, it's natural for rival fans to mock him a few times.

Continuing to scroll down, haters were still a minority, a small number of people paid attention to the incident itself, but most people were just playing with memes for entertainment, or thinking of their own experiences.

These are the mainstream of entertainment news comment sections: either entertainment or venting.

【If I see Chen Fang's news again, I'll win 5 million.】

【Who @-ed me? What did Chen Fang do again? Why is he trending again tonight? If there's no new evidence and no new gossip, why @ me?】

【Looking at Yao Ting's statement, I really understand. The person who used to bully me is doing very well now. They got into a 211 university, joined one of the Big Four, and earn 30,000 a month. But I can never move on.】

【He's just like my ex. Doing disgusting things while pretending to be affectionate, liking the obedient ones but unable to resist the wild ones. The seamless transition is really disgusting!】

【Being deceived by a scumbag is truly disgusting. I really want to cry for him, but he just won't die.】

【I've also met a 'sea queen'. I can't forget her; every time I pass a funeral home, I think it's her.】

Zhuang Ning straightened her back and frowned. "I can't look anymore. Are these all just bots? Don't they have their own ability to think?"

The Director smiled calmly. "Sister Zhuang, most of the programs you lead are cultural, so you rarely encounter this type of celebrity. In reality, the human heart is very fragile and easily follows trends. If you go to the public relations department, you'll see the diversity of the human species."

Zhuang Ning shook her head, hugging her arms. "Forget it, you be busy."

The Director nodded. "I need to prepare an emergency plan. If something really happens, I need a backup plan."

...

Throughout the night, many people in the third group of the adventures did not sleep soundly.

The night deepened, and the moon gradually moved westward.

Finally, the sky turned a fish-belly white, birdsong came from the back mountain, the village awoke in the morning mist, and cooking smoke curled upwards.

The last day of the adventures' third group also began.

After Chen Fang finished breakfast, he first checked the system data. Last weekend it was 350,000. These past few days, the program content has mainly been cultural, which didn't have much impact on the audience. But relying on him genuinely moving his friends, the one meat and one vegetable moving the listeners, and last night's events, it has now reached 502,000.

He had an interview at Tianji Entertainment on the 19th. He had to accumulate more points on the last day to increase his bargaining chips.

Please, my dear haters, direct your resentment at me!

It's best to be like Little Xie, smiling on the surface but cursing inwardly.

That way, you're not good, I'm good, everyone's good!
