Shame!
Gu Xi and Mu Bai didn't expect to see such a shameful thing in the play they acted, and both of them had the urge to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.
After a while, the two of them recovered.
Gu Xi said: "Why don't you read it?"
Mubai nodded: "It's a little bit regretful to attack the members."
Since then, the two have never opened the show again.
However, during the premiere of the TV series, at least some publicity must be done. Both Gu Xi and Mu Bai followed Shen Yu's instructions and forwarded the official Weibo's promotional Weibo.
Gu Xi clicked on the official Weibo and looked under it. The number of fans is pitifully small, and there are not many content in Chaohua.
And because Gu Xi and Mu Bai haven't responded positively to the previous IP drama director's slanderous long Weibo, many people regard their attitude as a default, so they went to the official Weibo of this drama to scold them, and the comments were blocked. Made a mess.
Seeing that Gu Xi and Mu Bai hadn't responded positively for a long time, and the company didn't have any countermeasures, the director of the previous IP drama thought he had given up on these two young rookies, so he started spreading rumors on the Internet to smear them, and even sold the fabricated black material. Give marketing number.The marketing account forwarded it wantonly, without asking whether it was true or false, just eating human blood steamed buns, anyway, what the audience likes to watch most is celebrity black material, and the circle is torn apart.
In this negative environment, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's debut drama dropped to [-]:[-] on the third day after it aired, making it one of the worst dramas of the year.
The comments and bullet screens are full of ridicule. From the acting skills and styling of the two, to the plot of the story, to the poor production, the audience frequently complained.Some lines and scenes in the play were even cut out separately to make ghost material, and Gu Xi and Mu Bai's image-destroying emoticons are countless.
There are even a few drama critics who specifically picked up this drama as a textbook of bad movies. In order to gain attention, they even combined black material to name and criticize Gu Xi and Mu Bai. Don't put money on the heads of the two of them.
In the end, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's debut novel, which was aired at the end of the year, won the worst drama of the year as a "dark horse", saving countless seniors in the circle.
Many viewers came here admiringly, curious about how bad this extremely bad drama is, but it actually made the drama's broadcast volume very good.This is exactly what the saying goes, black and red are also red.Gu Xi and Mu Bai have jumped from unknown newcomers to negative models that are hotly discussed on the Internet.At first, Gu Xi and Mu Bai were embarrassed to watch their drama, but later they didn't want to watch it at all.
The two haven't made any announcements recently. At first, they occasionally posted on Weibo and started live broadcasts, but the comments were basically ridicule and scolding. It would be false to say that they would not be affected.
But Shen Yu told them that they had to read the debut novel, not only to read it, but also to read it carefully.
For this reason, Shen Yu even specially assigned tasks to the two of them.
The TV series is updated with two episodes every day. After Gu Xi and Mu Bai watch it, they have to analyze the two episodes, where they acted well and where they acted poorly; what is the reason for the poor acting, and how should they be improved?Then write these into a report of experience, no less than a thousand words, and send it to Shen Yu's mailbox before twelve o'clock every night.
At first, the two were repulsed in their hearts. They locked themselves in their rooms, put on their shame, watched the TV series, and then scratched their heads and wrote a small composition.
But after turning off the barrage and calming down to watch it with the purpose of analysis, the two of them will be amazed by their performance in the play from time to time.
An unexpected look, a beautiful movement, or a wonderful line will make them forget for a moment that it is actually themselves, and only feel that the person on the screen is strange and handsome.
Slowly, the two got involved, and the essays they submitted every day became longer and longer, and they didn't have time to check their phones, so they naturally stopped paying attention to all kinds of rumors and attacks on the Internet.
In this way, when the outside world was full of impetuousness and noise, Gu Xi and Mu Bai stayed in their own quiet little world, sorting out bit by bit their growth and gains as artists in the past half a year.In every little bit of surprise, build a new understanding of yourself.
……
The Spring Festival is approaching, and due to the influence of public opinion on the Internet, Gu Xi and Mu Bai will not receive notices during this period, so Shen Yu directly gave them and Xiao Ding a holiday.
Xiao Ding bought a ticket and went back to his hometown at the end of the Spring Festival travel season. Gu Xi and Mu Bai stayed in the dormitory until the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. During this delicate period, neither of them really wanted to go home.
Mu Bai fancied, "If the two of us can go to the Spring Festival Gala, we can confidently not go home for the New Year."
Gu Xi: "You're thinking of Taozi."
That night, Mu Bai's family called him and urged him to go home, so Mu Bai had no choice but to buy a plane ticket for the next day.
Early the next morning, Mu Bai stood at the door holding the birthday gift Gu Xi gave him, reluctant to part.
"Gu Xixi, I'm leaving. This farewell, we will meet again next year, you..."
Gu Ximo interrupted him emotionally: "Don't worry, I won't miss you, let's go."
Mubai: "..."
Mu Bai didn't care about Gu Xi's ruthlessness, and still said: "Gu Xixi, why don't you go home with me to celebrate the New Year."
Gu Xi resolutely refused: "Everyone brings their partners back during the Chinese New Year. Why are you taking me back? Let's go, I'll be home in two days."
"Alright then." Mu Bai didn't force him, waved to him, and left with the big box in his arms.
Just as Gu Xi closed the door, the phone rang. He looked at the caller ID, pursed his lower lip, and answered the phone.
"Hey, Dad."
Gu's father's voice on the other end of the phone was displeased: "You don't plan to go home during the Chinese New Year? What's the date?"
Gu Xi made an excuse and said, "No, I'm busy with work."
"Busy?" Father Gu snorted coldly, "Busy going to the Spring Festival Gala?"
Gu Xi frowned and said in a low voice, "No."
"Then what are you busy with? Are you busy being scolded on the Internet?" Father Gu also knew about the Internet. What have you been doing outside for half a year, it's a shame! You still have to terminate the contract and come back!"
Although Gu Xi knew that this was just an angry remark from his father, he still couldn't help asking: "Dad, where am I ashamed?"
Father Gu was so angry that he cursed: "Isn't it embarrassing to be confused with such a third-rate director? Isn't it embarrassing to be scolded on the Internet? Look at what you filmed. You said that if you are serious Once the album is released, it’s fine to be a singer, and I won’t say anything about you, but look at what you have become now? This shows that you are not suitable for the entertainment industry, so give up now!”
Gu Xi couldn't tell what it was like in his heart at the moment. During this period of time, all kinds of negative emotions that he deliberately suppressed and avoided suddenly seemed like a beast breaking free from a cage, tearing his usual elegance and stability to pieces. .
Gu Xi's chest rose and fell, and he asked with strong emotion in his voice: "Dad, do you know how much sweat I sweated when I was filming the first movie? Do you know how many nights I stayed up all night? You can hear the words in that movie?" Did I sing the theme song?"
Father Gu was a little caught off guard by his series of questions: "I..."
Without waiting for Gu's father to answer, Gu Xi said very quickly: "Yes, I haven't become a singer yet, but do you know how much resources are needed to make an album? How many people do I need to compete with? And I have nothing, I only have me Only myself! So I have to take more detours than others, and have to spend more time and energy. But it’s nothing, I am willing.”
"As for the revelations on the Internet, whether it is the truth, or slander and rumors, my company and I have not responded yet, and the final result is unknown now. Why are you unwilling to wait? Why are you doing it now? Tell me to give up?"
"After all, you don't want to believe me."
Gu Xi seldom vented his emotions so bluntly like this. Even Gu's father didn't react for a while, and the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds.
After venting his emotions, a sense of powerlessness followed. Gu Xi sighed and hung up the phone directly.
He threw his head back, leaned back on the sofa, and raised one arm to his eyes.The setting sun slanted into the living room and cast a silent shadow on him.
After a while, the phone rang again, Gu Xi opened his eyes and saw that it wasn't his father, this time it was his brother Gu Chen calling.
Gu Xi answered the phone without making a sound.
"Dad just called you because he wanted you to go home for the New Year, so don't think too much about it." Apparently when Gu's father called just now, Gu Chen was beside him.
Gu Xi said sullenly: "I didn't think much about it."
Gu Chen sighed and said: "You can't blame Dad for being unhappy, it's just that the impact this time is a bit big, someone on the Internet has picked you up at home, luckily it was discovered early, and it was suppressed in time."
When Gu Xi heard this, he felt a little guilty again.
"Come back. No matter what, you should go home during the Chinese New Year." Gu Chen persuaded.
Gu Xi closed his eyes and finally agreed.
Gu Xi waited until noon on New Year's Eve before calling the driver at home to pick him up.
In the evening, the three big men sat together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner in silence, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.
After dinner, Gu's father went upstairs to rest early, and Gu Xi sat in the living room watching the Spring Festival Gala by himself.The father and son hardly had any communication all night.
Gu Chen felt a bit awkward being caught between the two of them, looking at his brother's lonely back, he felt a little distressed.In fact, he has always admired Gu Xi's ability to firmly walk his own path, and if it were him, he might not necessarily be able to do it.
Although the Gu family is rich, they have never been accustomed to educating their offspring, and have always adhered to the principle of self-reliance, which has been the case since his grandfather's generation.If you inherit the family business, that's the best; but if you want to do something else, you have to work hard on your own, and don't think about family support.
So from the moment Gu Xi chose music, he was doomed to struggle alone.
But even knowing that the road ahead will be full of difficulties, the younger brother who has been pampered since childhood still chooses his dream without hesitation. Gu Chen admires and even firmly believes that such a younger brother will succeed.
Gu Chen walked over and sat down next to Gu Xi, took out a thick red envelope and handed it to him.
Gu Xi was a little surprised, he was taken aback for a moment before accepting the red envelope, his father gave him the red envelope in previous years, he thought he would not be able to get it this year.
"Thank you bro."
Gu Chen looked at him carefully, and asked, "Why did you lose weight? Filming is hard?"
Gu Xi didn't deliberately try to be brave, he nodded and said, "A little bit."
Gu Chen told him: "Eat more at home these two days, and make up for it."
Gu Xi agreed, and then asked his brother: "Is the company busy this year? Is there a lot of things?"
It is a rare opportunity for the two brothers to sit face to face and have a heart-to-heart talk like this. Although they rarely see each other, the tacit understanding and affection between the brothers have not changed.
Finally Gu Chen said: "Xiao Xi, you should find a chance to open up your heart and have a talk with Dad."
Gu Xi pursed his lips and said, "Let's talk about it."
……
In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shang Rui came to Gu Xi's house to pay New Year's greetings with a group of rich and noble knights.
These people are family friends, and they all grew up together. Every year, they visit each other to pay New Year's greetings, but this year they all come together.
Mr. Gu saw these juniors early in the morning, gave them red envelopes, talked and laughed for a while, his mood improved a lot, and he even had a good look towards Gu Xi.
Shang Rui raised his eyebrows at Gu Xi, and said with an expression of asking for credit: "How about it? I brought someone to your house early in the morning to save the scene, isn't it interesting?"
Gu Xi smiled and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Shang Rui patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, "There's such a big commotion on the Internet, I know it's hard for you to go home."
In fact, as early as the third-rate director first posted Weibo, they all knew about it.Fa Xiao was so slandered by others, and no one could just sit idly by. The Knights of Fortune were ready to teach that person a lesson.If Gu Xi hadn't stopped him at that time and told him and his manager to deal with it, they wouldn't have allowed the cockroach to jump up to now.
After the New Year's greetings, several members of the Fortune Knights teamed up with the drivers of each family and decided to play a five-a-side football match on the lawn in the backyard of Gu's family.Gu Xi also changed his clothes and went on the field. Gu Chen set up a barbecue shed on the sidelines, and chatted with the two ladies in the Knights while having a barbecue.
The gray sky in the early morning gradually brightened at this time, the thick clouds dispersed, and the sun finally showed its face.
Everyone stood still in their positions, Shang Rui looked at his watch, and raised his voice to ask Gu Xi: "Is it almost time?"
Everyone in the Fugui Knights looked at Gu Xi, who looked at the sunlight breaking through the clouds, raised the corners of his mouth, and replied, "Here we are."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright whistle sounded, Gu Chen kicked the ball into the field, and the game began.
At [-]:[-] a.m. Beijing time, on behalf of the company Empire Entertainment, Shen Yu posted a long Weibo to officially respond to all the online comments about Gu Xi and Mu Bai, and attached a letter from a lawyer against a former director.
At the same time, Gu Xi uploaded a recording file on Weibo, which recorded the whole process of Mubai asking for leave from the crew with his hand injured.
Assistant Ding Man's Weibo posted the full version of a director's previously publicized video, and also released a number of photos taken by the on-site staff.
Shen Yu's long Weibo carefully listed a certain director's false statements one by one, and gave responses and supporting materials one by one, as well as legal appraisals of all recording files, videos, and picture files in the materials.
This long Weibo was reposted by more than a hundred people in the industry within 5 minutes after it was released, including dozens of new actors.
After reposting, these new actors collectively spoke out, exposing the evidence of a director who had long used his power to exploit actors for personal gain, including defamation, bribery, obscenity, etc., and the relevant department said it had opened a case for investigation.
On the first day of the new year, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's response was like a thunderbolt dropped on the ground, and it exploded, catching everyone off guard.In this public opinion drama, they did not disappoint. After falling silent to the bottom, they broke out suddenly, presenting the most exciting reversal for all spectators.
Soon the relevant content was reposted explosively, and the popularity of the topic continued to rise, almost sweeping the top ten Weibo most searched.And all of this happened in just one hour.
Those who used to speak ill became speechless, and countless people were slapped in the face.After the director's black material was exposed one after another, netizens began to express sympathy for Gu Xi and Mu Bai's experience, spontaneously supported them, and even launched an apology campaign to Gu Xi and Mu Bai.
At this time, Mu Bai's light Weibo post of "Hand is already healed, I don't hurt, it's okay" directly made fans cry.
At this point, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's reputation began to completely reverse, and the popularity and topic level flew together, ushering in the first explosive increase in followers.
At this time, Gu's father in the Gu family's study naturally did not miss this wonderful turnaround. After understanding the whole process of the incident, Gu's father felt sorry for his son's grievances, and was also pleased with his son's tenacity and growth. Here, I saw my son's determination.
When Father Gu came out of the study and came to the backyard, he happened to see Gu Xi jumping high, catching the ball from his teammate with his chest, and facing the sun, he shot a beautiful shot.
The ball goes in.
"Strike!" The whistle blew, and Gu's father stood on the sidelines and shouted.
Gu Xi turned around unexpectedly.
"Strike!" Gu's father looked into Gu Xi's eyes and repeated again, and applauded.
A few boys also gathered around, praising Gu Xi for his beautiful shot.
Gu Xi rarely smiled shyly.
After playing football, Gu Xi and Gu's father went to the study alone to talk.
On the sidelines, under the barbecue shed, Gu Chen looked at the backs of his younger brother and father, and took a sip of wine with a smile.
……
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Xi and Mu Bai starred in the debut finale, and the official Weibo suddenly released a large number of behind-the-scenes videos.In the tidbits, the difficult conditions of the production crew instead highlighted the advantages of Gu Xi and Mu Bai's ability to endure hardships without being squeamish, which created a wave of goodwill for the two.At the same time, the clips of the two getting along on the set were warm and loving, full of jokes, and also attracted many passers-by.
And at this time, Shen Yu posted Gu Xi and Mu Bai's first essay on Weibo in a very timely manner, angrily posting a group of hardworking and dedicated people.It was the first time for fans to watch idols write essays, and they all enjoyed it.
"I swear by this word, elegant people can't collapse! Oh, I'm dead!"
"I can't do it anymore, I'm going to die laughing! The shame is literally overflowing from the lines!"
"Hahahahahaha, I found a typo in vain."
"For nothing, you suffer from this typo."
Gu Xi and Mu Bai, who were caught off guard and publicly executed: "..."
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the annual IP drama starring Gu Xi and Mu Bai was broadcast on the stars. Although the two were only supporting roles in the drama, compared with other first-line stars, their performance was still eye-catching.As newcomers, the acting skills of the two have received wide acclaim.
The online ratings of the debut novel that ended at the same time began to bottom out, and the number of broadcasts continued to rise.After the negative barrage was cleared, more and more viewers began to objectively evaluate the show.
The ear-catching theme songs and episodes in the play also began to appear on the charts of major music software. After learning that Gu Xi himself composed and sang, his musical talent surprised countless passers-by.
For two consecutive days, Gu Xi and Mu Bai continued to explode in popularity.
All the unknown efforts in the past seemed to be rewarded on this day.
On the third day of the new year, Shen Yu called Gu Xi and Mu Bai respectively.
"It's time for vacation, it's time to come back to work."
The author has something to say: the darkest time has passed, starting tomorrow, everything will get better and better.
Gu Xi and Mu Bai didn't expect to see such a shameful thing in the play they acted, and both of them had the urge to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.
After a while, the two of them recovered.
Gu Xi said: "Why don't you read it?"
Mubai nodded: "It's a little bit regretful to attack the members."
Since then, the two have never opened the show again.

The Knights of Fortune were ready to teach that person a lesson.If Gu Xi hadn't stopped him at that time and told him and his manager to deal with it, they wouldn't have allowed the cockroach to jump up to now.
After the New Year's greetings, several members of the Fortune Knights teamed up with the drivers of each family and decided to play a five-a-side football match on the lawn in the backyard of Gu's family.Gu Xi also changed his clothes and went on the field. Gu Chen set up a barbecue shed on the sidelines, and chatted with the two ladies in the Knights while having a barbecue.
The gray sky in the early morning gradually brightened at this time, the thick clouds dispersed, and the sun finally showed its face.
Everyone stood still in their positions, Shang Rui looked at his watch, and raised his voice to ask Gu Xi: "Is it almost time?"
Everyone in the Fugui Knights looked at Gu Xi, who looked at the sunlight breaking through the clouds, raised the corners of his mouth, and replied, "Here we are."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright whistle sounded, Gu Chen kicked the ball into the field, and the game began.
At [-]:[-] a.m. Beijing time, on behalf of the company Empire Entertainment, Shen Yu posted a long Weibo to officially respond to all the online comments about Gu Xi and Mu Bai, and attached a letter from a lawyer against a former director.
At the same time, Gu Xi uploaded a recording file on Weibo, which recorded the whole process of Mubai asking for leave from the crew with his hand injured.
Assistant Ding Man's Weibo posted the full version of a director's previously publicized video, and also released a number of photos taken by the on-site staff.
Shen Yu's long Weibo carefully listed a certain director's false statements one by one, and gave responses and supporting materials one by one, as well as legal appraisals of all recording files, videos, and picture files in the materials.
This long Weibo was reposted by more than a hundred people in the industry within 5 minutes after it was released, including dozens of new actors.
After reposting, these new actors collectively spoke out, exposing the evidence of a director who had long used his power to exploit actors for personal gain, including defamation, bribery, obscenity, etc., and the relevant department said it had opened a case for investigation.
On the first day of the new year, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's response was like a thunderbolt dropped on the ground, and it exploded, catching everyone off guard.In this public opinion drama, they did not disappoint. After falling silent to the bottom, they broke out suddenly, presenting the most exciting reversal for all spectators.
Soon the relevant content was reposted explosively, and the popularity of the topic continued to rise, almost sweeping the top ten Weibo most searched.And all of this happened in just one hour.
Those who used to speak ill became speechless, and countless people were slapped in the face.After the director's black material was exposed one after another, netizens began to express sympathy for Gu Xi and Mu Bai's experience, spontaneously supported them, and even launched an apology campaign to Gu Xi and Mu Bai.
At this time, Mu Bai's light Weibo post of "Hand is already healed, I don't hurt, it's okay" directly made fans cry.
At this point, Gu Xi and Mu Bai's reputation began to completely reverse, and the popularity and topic level flew together, ushering in the first explosive increase in followers.
At this time, Gu's father in the Gu family's study naturally did not miss this wonderful turnaround. After understanding the whole process of the incident, Gu's father felt sorry for his son's grievances, and was also pleased with his son's tenacity and growth. Here, I saw my son's determination.
When Father Gu came out of the study and came to the backyard, he happened to see Gu Xi jumping high, catching the ball from his teammate with his chest, and facing the sun, he shot a beautiful shot.
The ball goes in.
"Strike!" The whistle blew, and Gu's father stood on the sidelines and shouted.
Gu Xi turned around unexpectedly.
"Strike!" Gu's father looked into Gu Xi's eyes and repeated again, and applauded.
A few boys also gathered around, praising Gu Xi for his beautiful shot.
Gu Xi rarely smiled shyly.
After playing football, Gu Xi and Gu's father went to the study alone to talk.
On the sidelines, under the barbecue shed, Gu Chen looked at the backs of his younger brother and father, and took a sip of wine with a smile.
……
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Xi and Mu Bai starred in the debut finale, and the official Weibo suddenly released a large number of behind-the-scenes videos.In the tidbits, the difficult conditions of the production crew instead highlighted the advantages of Gu Xi and Mu Bai's ability to endure hardships without being squeamish, which created a wave of goodwill for the two.At the same time, the clips of the two getting along on the set were warm and loving, full of jokes, and also attracted many passers-by.
And at this time, Shen Yu posted Gu Xi and Mu Bai's first essay on Weibo in a very timely manner, angrily posting a group of hardworking and dedicated people.It was the first time for fans to watch idols write essays, and they all enjoyed it.
"I swear by this word, elegant people can't collapse! Oh, I'm dead!"
"I can't do it anymore, I'm going to die laughing! The shame is literally overflowing from the lines!"
"Hahahahahaha, I found a typo in vain."
"For nothing, you suffer from this typo."
Gu Xi and Mu Bai, who were caught off guard and publicly executed: "..."
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the annual IP drama starring Gu Xi and Mu Bai was broadcast on the stars. Although the two were only supporting roles in the drama, compared with other first-line stars, their performance was still eye-catching.As newcomers, the acting skills of the two have received wide acclaim.
The online ratings of the debut novel that ended at the same time began to bottom out, and the number of broadcasts continued to rise.After the negative barrage was cleared, more and more viewers began to objectively evaluate the show.
The ear-catching theme songs and episodes in the play also began to appear on the charts of major music software. After learning that Gu Xi himself composed and sang, his musical talent surprised countless passers-by.
For two consecutive days, Gu Xi and Mu Bai continued to explode in popularity.
All the unknown efforts in the past seemed to be rewarded on this day.
On the third day of the new year, Shen Yu called Gu Xi and Mu Bai respectively.
"It's time for vacation, it's time to come back to work."
The author has something to say: the darkest time has passed, starting tomorrow, everything will get better and better.
