The career system at Huayu Entertainment is too gentlemanly.

Chapter 80. Forced to leave the Dream of the Red Chamber

It was a cold morning, and the sky was still dark.

The candidates for the new Dream of the Red Chamber training camp have finished their morning run.

Chen Yan sat in the restaurant eating breakfast, glancing at Yang Mi across from him every now and then.

Yang Mi didn't give him a friendly look and simply ignored him.

His expression changed slightly when he drank the milk.

It didn't taste as good as last night.

During the break between eating and going to class, Yang Mi slowed down and walked over to Chen Yan's side.

When will you give me the medicine?

I'll go buy it later.

"Then hurry up!"

Yang Mi quickly left after giving the reminder.

Chen Yan pursed his lips and quickened his pace upstairs.

The morning class was about folk customs and etiquette, which was relatively easy.

After finishing his class, Chen Yan went to find the assistant director from yesterday.

With Zeng Siyu's connections, going out to buy something is still very easy.

Chen Yan returned after shopping before lunch was over.

But before he could deliver the medicine to Yang Mi, he was called away by the assistant director.

The assistant director's expression was very complicated when he saw Chen Yan.

A newcomer who has just debuted, and hasn't even had a single drama broadcast yet.

Fans actually bombarded the production team's online forum and official website.

He'd never seen anything like this in all his years in the entertainment industry.

That's absolutely outrageous.

The key issue is that after this incident was exposed, public opinion was very unfavorable to Chen Yan.

Many people who follow Dream of the Red Chamber feel that Chen Yan's fans are bullying people.

You joined later, so why are you attacking other contestants after being dropped by the director?

Does Baoyu really have to use Chen Yan?

This incident has had a very negative impact, with many netizens supporting Dream of the Red Chamber's decision to abandon Chen Yan.

Fans of the fake Baoyu are also protesting.

Many media outlets are now bringing up the issue of Li Shaohong's unwillingness to use contestants from the Dream Talent show.

As a result, everyone lost faith in Li Shaohong.

Inside the room, Chen Yan looked at the assistant director, who remained silent, and felt a little strange.

So he took the initiative and asked, "Director, what do you need me for?"

The assistant director sighed, "Reporters are coming this afternoon."

"oh."

"To interview you."

"what?"

"Get ready."

"Um!"

"Are you playing the straight man?"

"Hmph!"

"Get lost."

"Alright!"

After Chen Yan left, the assistant director couldn't help but laugh.

This kid is quite funny; no wonder he has so many fans.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead.

I seem to have forgotten to tell Chen Yan why the reporter was conducting the interview.

Never mind, I'll talk to him this afternoon.

On the other side, Chen Yan gave the medicine to Yang Mi and only felt a little relieved after watching her take it.

Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him after taking her medicine. "Why are you staring at me? You don't think I'm not taking it, do you?"

Chen Yan gave an awkward laugh, "I'm worried about my senior."

"Hmph, nobody would believe you!"

Yang Mi kicked him and turned to leave.

As she turned around, she began to mutter to herself.

Hey junior, if you're so tough, don't chase after me!

One step... two steps...

Yang Mi walked dozens of steps but still couldn't see Chen Yan, and she stomped her feet in anger.

Hey junior! You really didn't contact me?!

Chen Yan had no time to chase after her; lunch was far more important than his senior.

At this very moment, in Changsha, Hunan TV, far away...

Yao Jiagang had just finished his phone call with Zeng Siyu.

She just found out that Chen Yan's fans were causing trouble online again.

She was secretly delighted, realizing that she hadn't misjudged him after all.

Chen Yan's fans are very Japanese and Korean!

This is a necessary condition for becoming a top idol.

An idol must first be able to attract fans, and those fans must be loyal!

This is something many celebrities don't possess.

Chen Yan will definitely become a top idol in the future.

The "Let's Go Watch the Meteor Shower" project is a sure thing.

After discussing it with Xia Qing for a while, she began arranging for the media to hype it up.

First, announce the "Let's Go Watch the Meteor Shower" project, then openly recruit people!

The new Dream of the Red Chamber doesn't want Chen Yan, does it?

You don't want it, but we do.

To create hype and generate buzz!

At the same time, the producer of the Shanghai SMG Prince of Tennis production team also received a call from Zeng Siyu.

The producer of The Prince of Tennis saw the news about Chen Yan.

However, he felt that Chen Yan's fans were too aggressive.

It felt a bit like bullying.

There are concerns that Chen Yan's image and reputation might negatively impact The Prince of Tennis.

He was even considering whether to focus on promoting Chen Yan when promoting The Prince of Tennis.

After all, there have been incidents of fans attacking each other between Chen Yan and the Super Boys family.

However, Zeng Siyu had already considered his concerns.

She unleashed her ultimate move!

"Chen Yan will apologize and withdraw from the casting for Dream of the Red Chamber."

The producer of The Prince of Tennis was instantly stunned.

"Really? They're withdrawing from the casting process already?"

Zeng Siyu immediately explained, "His temporary withdrawal was to quell public opinion and gain public favor. He will still be chosen in the future."

"I see, I understand now. I will arrange tennis promotion activities as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll wait for your call."

After the two hung up the phone, Zeng Siyu called Chen Yan.

In the hotel restaurant, Chen Yan was chatting with Kan Qingzi and a few others.

His phone buzzed, and after glancing at it, he answered it immediately.

Then came the devastating news from Zeng Siyu.

Have the fans' actions provoked public outrage?

Should I voluntarily withdraw from the casting for "Dream of the Red Chamber"?

Yamei!

Holding his phone, he said with a hint of helplessness, "It can't be that serious, can it?"

Zeng Siyu on the other end of the phone began to explain earnestly.

"Baoyu will still be yours in the future. The casting of the production team has been delayed for a long time, and the pressure from public opinion is already very high."

Now that your fans have caused this trouble, it's detrimental to both you and the production team.

Zeng Siyu paused for a moment, then pointed out another benefit of this kind of hype.

"By voluntarily withdrawing in the name of protecting your fans, you can increase fan loyalty, establish a responsible image, and win back netizens' goodwill. We'll get you back later."

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow after hearing this.

This is a bit like the fandom culture.

The main character feigned grievance, while fans angrily demanded refunds.

Loyalty and cohesion are off the charts!

He immediately agreed to Zeng Siyu's arrangement.

Waiting for the reporter to come for an interview this afternoon!

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan immediately pretended to be sad.

Kan Qingzi and the others inquired about the situation out of curiosity.

Chen Yan forced an awkward smile and said, "It's nothing, I just plan to withdraw."

"Huh? Why?!" Kan Qingzi couldn't help but ask immediately.

Class monitor, are you going to abandon me?

Zhao Liying and Tiezi were also somewhat surprised.

Isn't Chen Yan the most popular choice for the role of Bao Yu?

Why are you suddenly quitting?

The three girls looked at Chen Yan, unsure how to comfort him.

Chen Yan sighed and silently turned away.

Kan Qingzi immediately called out to him, "Class monitor, where are you going?"

"Pack your things, go home for the Chinese New Year."

Kan Qingzi immediately felt sorry for Chen Yan and caught up with him.

"Squad leader, wait for me, I'm coming too."

"Are you stupid? Why are you leaving?"

"You've all left, what am I supposed to do here all by myself?"

"It's not like we're getting married. You can't make movies without me, can you?"

"I don't want to stay here anymore!"

Zhao Liying and Tiezi watched their backs and listened to their conversation, feeling a mix of emotions.

Kan Qingzi was spreading rumors about Chen Yan yesterday, but today she's become a loyal puppy.

Chen Yan was the strongest candidate yesterday, but today he's packing his things and leaving.

This world is so magical.

Two o'clock in the afternoon, in the hotel lobby.

Several reporters who came to visit the set surrounded Chen Yan.

Those who were training at the Red Mansion were watching the spectacle from a short distance away.

Several reporters shoved microphones right up to Chen Yan's mouth.

"Your fans are attacking other actors online, causing a very negative impact. What do you have to say about that?"

"Are you unhappy about the production team adding other candidates for the role of Jia Baoyu?"

"Netizens are criticizing your fans for lacking manners. What do you have to say about that?"

The reporter's questions were sharp and assertive.

Completely disregarding Chen Yan's feelings.

The assistant director standing nearby was worried for Chen Yan.

If you say the wrong thing, you could offend someone!

The other candidates were even more surprised.

What exactly happened?

This looks really serious.

At this moment, Chen Yan took a deep breath and looked at the reporter's camera.

"I have voluntarily withdrawn from the casting for the new Dream of the Red Chamber! Please don't blame my fans!"

The production team has its own reasons for adding candidates, which I completely understand.

My fans, unaware of the inside story, took the initiative to speak out on my behalf, and their intentions were good.

All the problems were caused by me, please forgive me! I'm sorry!

The reporters were stunned.

Wow! Chen Yan is so brave?

He actually chose to take the blame and help his fans out of the predicament, and even chose to leave the Dream of the Red Chamber production team!

The Dream of the Red Chamber is the hottest project in the entertainment industry.

To protect the fans, they gave up such a great opportunity!

You've got guts, kid!

Among the onlookers, several girls finally realized what had happened.

Kan Qingzi felt wronged and almost cried.

The class monitor clearly didn't do anything!

Why should he quit?!

Yang Mi stared blankly at Chen Yan.

It was like meeting Chen Yan for the first time.

Is this still the same annoying junior she knew?

She suddenly felt a pang of sadness.

She really wanted to get away from this annoying junior who bullied her every day.

But why is she sad when Chen Yan is really leaving?

You stinky junior...aren't you a big bad guy?!

Why should you take responsibility for your fans?

Didn't you threaten me into becoming your head maid?

I haven't even admitted defeat yet, and you're already running away at the last minute?!

That untrustworthy junior!

I hate you!
