Lu Zhen felt that Xiaoxiao’s mentality had matured a lot. She could actually admit the rationality of this voting result. Xiaoxiao turned around and comforted Lu Zhen. “Zhenzhen, don’t worry about this. This is just a gimmick created by the marketing account to attract popularity. It’s meaningless.” Lu Zhen couldn’t help but laugh. “If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known that they had a vote.”
Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly. “That’s true. Your mentality is much more stable than mine. You definitely won’t care about these things. It’s just that Guan Yun e s fans can’t bear to see you even a little better than Guan Yun.”
“Actors don’t have to be ranked like in track and field competitions. In my opinion, even some actors with very few fans are good actors worthy of respect as long as they can act well,” Lu Zhen sighed.
After Guan Yun’s fans showed off the voting data, they used Lu Zhen’s identity as a specially invited actor.
There was even a rumor that came out of nowhere: Lu Zhen originally wanted to be one of the female leads, but she didn’t have enough status, so she could only be a specially invited actress.
Someone else said that the two of them had been competing for the role of “Lin Fen” previously. After Lu Zhen regretfully failed, she could only accept the role of Manni, who had very few scenes.
Xiaoxiao almost laughed out of anger after hearing these rumors.
These rumors were all to show that Guan Yun was the most resourceful actress in Jia Le. When ordinary netizens saw these rumors, they would feel that Lu Zhen had always been suppressed by Guan Yun in the company.
However, in fact, Jia Le had long listed Lu Zhen as a key target for nurturing. In terms of future potential, Guan Yun was far inferior to Lu Zhen.
It was a pity that Jia Le would not personally deny the rumors online. After all, it was just a competition between celebrities. The company would not care.
Guan Yun e s fans were lying through their teeth. They mocked Lu Zhen all day long that she could only play a supporting role for Guan Yun in Rain and Fog. Lu Zhen’s fans were furious, but there was nothing they could do.
Because even if they denied what they said, they wouldn’t admit it. Neither side could produce any evidence. To most ordinary netizens, they would believe whichever fan had the loudest voice. After all, they had the advantage in numbers.
Such public opinion tactics were what Guan Yun!s fans were best at.
After Lu Zhen’s fans thought about it, they decided to ignore Guan Yun’s fans. They would never fall into their trap and give them popularity! While the fans of the two families were fighting openly and secretly online, Lu Zhen’s life was very calm.
“Under the Cherry Blossom Tree” was expected to finish filming in a few months. As for “Rain and Fog”, with Director Gao Fan’s strict attitude, the filming progress would definitely be very slow.
According to Li Feng, based on the current progress, it was not too late for Lu Zhen to join the production team at the end of the year.
As Gao Fan’s filming was too slow, the investors even suggested that they split Rain and Fog into two parts. After filming half of it, they would broadcast it first and continue filming the rest.
Of course, Gao Fan himself rejected this suggestion.
When Lu Zhen was still on set, the movie “Beauty” that countless fans were looking forward to was finally released. In the pre-screening, the audience’s evaluation of “Beauty” was very good. On the first day of screening, it was very full. The major cinemas immediately increased the number of screenings.
Since it was not the summer season, there were not many competitors in the same period.
“Beauty” chose to be released before the summer vacation and became the king of the theaters that month. Although there was some unpleasant news about the two female leads before the movie was released, it did not affect the audience’s enthusiasm to watch the movie.
Everyone entered the theater with anticipation. Many people walked out with red eyes. On domestic film review websites, the ratings of “Beauty” had been fluctuating between 8.5 to 8.9 since its release. A movie with a stable rating of more than 8 points could be considered the “best work of the year”.
Overnight, “Beauty” became a hot topic.
The netizens who had watched the movie “Beauty” posted their thoughts on their Moments. They strongly recommended that their friends must not miss such a good movie.
Film critic “Panda Ninja” had already watched “Beauty” once before the pre-screening. After the movie was released, he went to watch it with his colleagues in the company. After he went home, he brought his girlfriend to watch it again. In total, he watched it three times.
His fans had been urging him to post the film reviews for “Beauty”. After Panda Ninja repeatedly edited it a few times, he posted the final film reviews on his personal homepage..
