"These people are shameless! He didn't even know the truth of the matter and only knew how to curse and scold. Wasn't there no need to take responsibility for what he said on the internet now?”
"Sigh, I'm so angry that I can't even eat lunch. Xiao Bai is really too pitiful..."
"Someone must be deliberately targeting Xiao Bai and hiring the Internet trolls to lead the way! This group of people in the entertainment industry really had hearts!”
All the nurses were filled with righteous indignation. They were all fighting for justice for Lu Bai. What stingy? What miser? To them, it was a joke from hell. Lu Bai was only twenty years old. If not for the huge debt at home, who would want to live such a miserable life?
And this was actually the reason why those people on the internet attacked Lu Bai. It really made these unrelated people extremely angry.
"No, I can't stand it anymore. I can't let these shameless people slander our Xiao Bai like this!”
"Yeah, at least tell everyone the truth!”
"But we're all noob accounts. We don't have fans or traffic, so our words won't work..."
"Hey, don't you always post dance videos and have more than 100,000 fans? Let's use your account to help Xiao Bai.”
"No problem! I've long been unhappy with these people on the Internet! Xiao Bai was such a good boy. He couldn't let them bully him!”
In addition, as this incident further developed, many people in the industry also learned of this news, including Boss Yang, Teacher He, Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, and other celebrities who were familiar with Lu Bai.
To be honest, when they first saw the comments on the Internet, these celebrities were a little stunned. They thought that Lu Bai was stingy. They did not really feel that way. Although Lu Bai did seem to be a little frugal in terms of food and clothing, that was not the same as being stingy.
As people in the industry, they quickly realized that someone was leading the way behind Lu Baifa.
Even Boss Yang, who had personally driven Lu Bai home and seen Lu Bai's living environment, felt that this online statement was quite far-fetched and ridiculous. It was completely a public smear of water. He was so stunned that he said that the white was black. However, a large number of netizens really believed it and even joined in the scolding…
In the end, most of the netizens who followed the trend to scold Lu Bai did not care about what was going on with Lu Bai. They simply wanted to criticize him for the sake of criticizing him. By participating in the scolding of a celebrity, they wanted to find some fun in their bleak lives.
However, even Boss Yang and the others felt that Lu Bai was not such a person. At this moment, they did not dare to speak up for Lu Bai. After all, their friendship was not so strong that they could shoulder the lightning together. No one dared to drag themselves into this kind of crisis. If they were not careful, they might be implicated.
Moreover, they were not 100% sure what kind of person Lu Bai was in private. The gossip in the entertainment industry was always full of twists and turns. No one could guarantee what was going on.
In addition, many verified Weibo accounts of celebrities were not managed by themselves. What content they posted every day and how they interacted with their fans were all controlled by a professional team. If celebrities wanted to complain or something, they usually had to secretly open an account.
That was why people often said that in the entertainment industry, one shouldn't expect many people to speak up for you when something happened. As long as they didn't follow the trend and scold you, they wouldn't hit you when you're down. They would remain silent the entire time, and that would be considered a pretty good friendship.
As the war of words spread across the entire internet, the Masked King Competition was still ongoing. However, there were already many troll army members who had flooded into the Masked King's live stream room, opening up a new battlefield in the bullet screen. At the same time, Lu Bai's fans who were waiting in the live stream room were informed of the news of their idol's " house collapsing ".
"What are these people talking about? Lu Bai's house collapsed? You seem to be teasing me."
"Are they anti-fans hired by Hua Chenyu?”
"F * ck, I just logged out and looked at Weibo.”
"Stop fooling around…"
Just as the bullet comment section was in chaos, Zhang Jie, who was the fourth person to appear, finished singing a new song," He Doesn't Understand ". Amidst the warm applause from the audience, he once again publicly thanked Lu Bai and announced that this new song was Lu Bai's work.
For a moment, the audience was shocked once again. Initially, they were still curious where Zhang Jie found such a nice new song. They did not expect it to be written by Lu Bai. This made everyone surprised, but not very surprised…
Lu Bai was really going to change the rules of the Masked King Competition single-handedly. If this continued, he wouldn't dare to step onto this stage if he couldn't produce a new work. But for a normal singer, it wasn't that easy to produce a new work!
But just as the audience felt that the effects of today's show were explosive enough and that there wouldn't be any unexpected things, the next contestant, Tan Weiwei, let the audience know that they were still too young.
This was because this challenger, Tan Weiwei, was acting out of character. As soon as she went on stage, she made it clear that the song she brought," A Fated Bridge," was written by Lu Bai!
"A thousand miles of smoke…Mass Grave…A lonely soul in troubled times…No one visited..."
"Silent Heaven…The brush and ink were cold…Brush Blade Spring and Autumn... Pay with blood…"
"Talking about love and hate…Can't be sloppy... The war drums beat and beat…With trust…Make an oath, and I'll bear it…"
"This fate…Like a bridge…The flag fluttered…You want to leave…Please pull out your knife immediately…Love is written off…"
It had to be said that Tan Weiwei's singing was very strong. Her voice was very penetrating and her stage style was the same as her character. She was very valiant. In addition, this song, Fate's Bridge, could fully display her advantages.
All in all, this was another performance that had the best effects for the program, directly conquering countless viewers.
This also made the veteran singers who had finished their performance and were in the public lounge backstage feel helpless and sad. They sighed. They couldn't hold on anymore. They really couldn't hold on anymore.
Deng Ziqi sang AINY and Zhang Jie sang a song that he didn't understand. Now, Tan Weiwei's Fated Bridge was a very high-quality new song. The three of them performed very well, and there was also Lu Bai who hadn't appeared yet. It shouldn't be too bad.
In comparison, these veteran singers seemed ordinary. This stage that they once thought they could control was now rapidly out of their control.
And the source of all this pain had to start from the arrival of Lu Bai…
"Teacher Lu Bai, cough cough, after you finish singing on stage, we can give you a few minutes of blank time.”
At this moment, in the backstage waiting room, the program's executive director had specially come to look for Lu Bai. The implication of his words was also very obvious. He meant that if Lu Bai wanted to use this stage to clarify the criticism on the Internet, the program team was willing to cooperate.
This was not because the production team was siding with Lu Bai. It was mainly because this matter was also beneficial for this episode. After all, ever since Deng Ziqi's public confession, the popularity of this episode had started to soar at an extremely terrifying speed. Coupled with the sudden controversy over Lu Bai on the internet, it had also attracted a large number of viewers to watch the show.
Based on this rate of increase, after the show ended, the viewership ratings for this episode might really break the historical record for music variety shows!
The executive director of the show did not expect that his decision to pull Lu Bai in to make up the numbers in the last episode would actually bring about such a shocking effect.
And if Lu Bai could officially respond to the scolding from the entire internet, it would definitely bring the popularity of this episode to the peak. At that time, breaking the viewership ratings record was definitely a matter of course.
"Of course, we still respect your own wishes, Teacher Lu Bai. Cough cough, Teacher Lu Bai, it's your turn to go on stage soon.”
"Alright."
Not long after, when the last singer of the match, Lu Bai, appeared on the stage, the bullet screen exploded.
"Ha, Ge Langbai is finally out.”
"Tsk, I shouldn't say it. Lu Bai is quite handsome and his singing is not bad. Unfortunately, he's a miser.”
"Originally, I really liked him, but after seeing the post on the Internet, I really gave up. Petty men are the most annoying.”
"Tell me, why doesn't he spend the money he earns? Keep it for babies? This kind of person is really sad."
For a moment, the bullet comments section was filled with ridicule and sarcasm. Although being stingy was not illegal, even the Internet Water Army could not really do anything to Lu Bai.
However, with them starting the conversation, many of the audience members who did not know what was going on had a drastic change in their impression of Lu Bai. There were even many of Lu Bai's former fans who chose to quit.
This was the disgusting part of Hua Chenyu's move. It could not kill you, but it could disgust you to death.
However, what was unexpected was that Lu Bai did not seem to be affected at all despite the boos from the entire Internet. His expression was still calm and indifferent, and there was not the slightest hint of panic on his body.
This made many viewers wonder if Lu Bai still didn't know that he had been scolded badly on the Internet.
In the next second, the accompaniment sounded. On the big screen behind the stage, the title of the song that Lu Bai was going to sing was displayed.
The brightest star in the night sky
When they saw the title of the song, many of the audience members who were busy typing and scolding Lu Bai were stunned. They thought about it carefully and realized that they had never heard this song before. Could it be that Lu Bai had come up with another new song?
To be honest, when they realized that another new song had appeared, whether it was the audience or the other singers backstage, they were already a little numb. They were not surprised. On the contrary, they would be surprised if Lu Bai did not sing a new song this episode…
No matter how much everyone scolded him, Lu Bai's musical talent was indeed heaven-defying. Everyone had to admit it…
After a deep and sad prelude, Lu Bai's magnetic voice sounded.
