Chapter 48
Topic: Did I see it right? Is Yu Ruoyun going to act in a web drama?????
Is he crazy?! He’s an award-winning actor!!! How could he degrade himself to acting in a web drama??? Doesn’t he care about his image?
№0 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
?????
№1 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
What the hell, really? I’m shocked.
№2 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
…Is he out of money?? I can’t think of another reason…
№3 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
But a Film Emperor shouldn’t be short on money, right? And he’s been in the entertainment industry for so many years. It’s unlikely he’d suddenly run out of money, unless…
№4 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
If you’re going to throw shade, just do it openly. Why hold back?
№5 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Hahahahaha, I’ll finish what №4 started—unless he took out a nude loan! Karma’s a real thing, huh? Yu Ruoyun actually took on a web drama. Back when his fans were trashing other actors for taking on lots of projects, high output but low quality, they probably never saw this coming.
№6 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
It just goes to show, don’t be too mouthy, because one day you might bite your favorite star in the ass!
№7 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
I’m heading to Weibo to enjoy watching his fans crying and unfollowing him!
№8 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Wishful thinking. They’re already trying to spin it, saying the web drama looks well-made and high-quality, forcing themselves to say they’re looking forward to it.
Pathetic.jpg
№9 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
I really have to admire their ability to lie with a straight face!!
But seriously, I thought Yu Ruoyun was the least likely person in the entire entertainment industry to ruin his image. After all, he used to do nothing but make movies and kept a low profile.
№10 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Speaking of doing nothing but making movies, it’s hilarious. Yu Ruoyun’s fans always brag about how dedicated he is, yet he doesn’t even participate in movie promotions. How is that dedication? Are you kidding me?
№11 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
LMAOOOOOO
Model of dedication Yu Ruoyun: Finish filming and leave, no promotion necessary.
High-class actor fans: Taking fewer roles shows high quality; not promoting shows he cares only about the movie itself. What do you know?
And then high-quality specialist Yu Ruoyun slacks off for a year and takes on a web drama. Hahahahaha!
№12 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
You don’t need to spread rumors to blacken his name. He only skipped the promotion for one movie last year, and it was for a reason, wasn’t it?
№13 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Some of you are barely hiding your true colors. Stop pretending to be objective bystanders. It’s hilarious.
You’re always biting at Yu Ruoyun. Is your favorite star dead or something?
Oh, I guess he really is dead. Never mind then.
№14 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Damn, Yu Ruoyun’s fans are the most disgusting group I’ve ever seen. They get slapped in the face by their own idol and drag other fandoms down with them. They even say such malicious things about someone who’s actually dead???
№15 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Yu Ruoyun’s fans are still busy stirring up drama in an anonymous forum. Go manage the comments on Weibo! Your idol is the one losing credibility now!
№16 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Every time you mention irrelevant people, Yu Ruoyun takes on another web drama. I think a cheap danmei adaptation would suit him well too.
№17 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
How can you guys be like this? Yu Ruoyun has been slacking off for a year, so isn’t it possible he just couldn’t get any roles and had to take on a web drama? Anyway, taking on a web drama is better than claiming unemployment benefits!
№18 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Unemployment benefits? That’s hilarious.
№19 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Judging by the speed of these replies, it’s definitely fans of [ ] causing trouble again.
№20 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
[ ] your mom, get lost.
№21 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Yu Ruoyun’s fans really mirror their idol. Each one is more pretentious than the next, as if their idol’s achievements are their own.
№22 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
for real
№23 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Some people think being hysterical and biting everyone is something to be proud of? Like a leech, no wonder your fandom is the one we don’t talk about in the entire forum.
№24 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Let me remind the fans of the Film Emperor here: no matter how much you insult other fandoms, it doesn’t change the fact that Yu Ruoyun is taking on a web drama.
№25 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Can’t piss off the Film Emperor of web dramas.
№26 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Seriously though, seizing the opportunity to go crazy like this isn’t a good look. Jiang Yu’s fans should calm down. Do you really think no one can tell which fandom you belong to?
№27 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Honestly, fans of [ ] give me the feeling that because their idol is dead, they can do whatever they want… I used to understand their frustration, and I tolerated it because their idol passed away. But I never thought they’d still be this crazy after a year.
№28 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
…Someone dared to type out the name directly, a true warrior. I respect that.
№29 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-03-04☆☆☆
Topic: Report! Lifetime Achievement Award Given to Jiang Yu!!!
Honestly, I didn’t expect this. Isn’t this award usually given to someone who’s been respected in the industry for many years?
First, let me clarify, I’m not saying Jiang Yu doesn’t deserve it. I’m just really surprised.
№0 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Surprised +1
№1 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
I can see how desperate OP is to stay out of trouble (lol).
№2 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
………………Huh? Lifetime Achievement Award???
№3 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
I’m truly shocked.
№4 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
It’s not that it’s impossible, but it is unexpected.
№5 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Saying congratulations in this situation feels a bit strange.
№6 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
You can congratulate Jiang Yu’s fans. Their idol finally has an award to be proud of, so they don’t have to be so hysterical in fights anymore.
№6 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Using a Lifetime Achievement Award in fights? Seriously?
№7 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Well, what can you do? It’s not like he ever won Best Actor.
№8 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
…You guys are really bold, daring to speak such harsh truths.
№9 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Shows how much we’ve suffered because of Jiang Yu’s fans!
№10 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Fuck, stop. I can already imagine what they’ll be like when they go crazy!
№11 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
The guy’s dead, so let’s be a bit more respectful. After all, he worked hard and contributed a lot of good work over the years.
№12 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Be respectful +1.
№13 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
If you’re so kind, why not tell Jiang Yu’s fans to be respectful and stop attacking other fandoms?
№14 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
We’re all in an anonymous forum, saying things like that is just laughable. Besides, no one here has insulted Jiang Yu, right? We’re all just annoyed by his fans.
Or are you saying that “Jiang Yu never won Best Actor” is an insult to him?
№15 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Tsk tsk tsk, Jiang Yu’s fans starting up again. They just can’t handle the truth.
№16 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
I just checked, and the previous Lifetime Achievement Award winners are all renowned film industry professionals. So, this award is quite prestigious. Several actors who received it never won Best Actor, so it’s not against the rules for Jiang Yu to win it, but he’s the youngest recipient.
№17 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
…Confirmed, he got it because he died young.
№18 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
You even said that, so don’t pretend you only hate Jiang Yu’s fans. You clearly hate him too, just admit it.
№19 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
It’s hilarious seeing Jiang Yu’s fans unable to refute and getting all worked up.
№20 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
And no matter how angry you get, the fact remains that Jiang Yu died without winning Best Actor.
№21 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
You guys are really clueless about the importance of an award, comparing Best Actor to the Lifetime Achievement Award. Best Actor is subject to luck, like the difference between good and bad years. Some people even criticize the winners. But the Lifetime Achievement Award represents industry recognition of an actor’s career and sometimes serves as compensation for previous oversight.
№22 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Okay, okay, I’ve read the sincere essay above. Jiang Yu never won Best Actor but has a Lifetime Achievement Award. Move on.
№23 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
To be honest, not winning Best Actor at thirty-four isn’t unusual. The problem is that Jiang Yu made it too obvious that he wanted it. Everyone knew, and when reporters asked, he’d get defensive or even curse. And then Yu Ruoyun always beat him. They were never on the same level.
№24 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
The fans of the web drama actor are so proud. When Jiang Yu died, they pretended to be sad, but now a year later, they’re back to mocking him for not winning Best Actor. Sure, winning Best Actor is impressive, but starring in a web drama? Hahaha, the next step is Cheap Danmei Adaptation 10.0
№25 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Well, it’s better than having nothing to act in now. There are too many awards to care about, but at least we have new shows to watch.
№26 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Isn’t it said that Jiang Yu ran a red light and caused the accident himself? Jiang Yu’s fans should stop idolizing a problematic celebrity.
№27 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Your mom’s problematic. The police never said he ran a red light. Stop spreading rumors based on hearsay.
№28 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
As a bystander, I thought I’d see congratulations here. I’m shocked.
№29 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
+1 to the person above. I didn’t expect such drama among fans of these middle-aged male actors.
№30 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
For the uninitiated, here you go.

Yu Ruoyun fans trashing others compilation.jpg
№32 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Wow, did anyone see the interview at the celebration? Yu Ruoyun said congratulations to Jiang Yu and that he always wanted to congratulate him.
№33 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
The web drama actor is truly fake and mentally strong. A year with no nominations, yet he still attends the award ceremony and can say such things without batting an eye.
№34 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Web drama or not, Yu Ruoyun has real Best Actor awards. This forum is too biased, mocking someone just because they’re in a web drama.
№35 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
What does Jiang Yu winning a Lifetime Achievement Award have to do with him? Why does he need to congratulate him? Their only connection is that when a reporter mentioned Yu Ruoyun to Jiang Yu, he rolled his eyes and said, “Next question.”
№36 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Okay, fine, confirmed. So Yu Ruoyun is desperate for attention now, trying to latch onto Jiang Yu’s success. Stop posting about him already. Next.
№37 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-04-10☆☆☆
Topic: Has anyone noticed Long Xingyu from XX boy band? He’s getting really good resources lately.
He seems to have come out of nowhere. I hadn’t heard of him before. Does he have connections?
№0 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Is he the one acting with Yu Ruoyun in the web drama? Not a fan, but I saw someone sharing the trailer.
№1 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
He looks pretty good. I remember now, there’s another 101-type talent show, and someone named Zhong Mo is quite popular. He’s in the same group. I saw him in Zhong Mo’s videos.
№2 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Now that you mention it, it’s a bit strange. Even though Yu Ruoyun is now a joke in the forum, he’s still a Film Emperor. For Long Xingyu to act with him right off the bat is odd. He’s also recently joined a web variety show, and the other artists are all more well-known than him.
By the way, why are there so many talent shows lately? What’s the fucking point? The same fans are just jumping from one to another.
№3 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
It’s not possible that he has no connections at all. There are tons of good-looking people in the entertainment industry. Especially since he’s just a member of an unknown boy band.
№4 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Why do people here look down on boy bands so much? Need I remind you that many of the top stars in the industry started as idols turned actors? And what’s so strange about it? It’s just a web drama and variety show, as a side character, not some major resource. You’re only making a big deal out of it because of Yu Ruoyun.
№5 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
By the way, don’t you think Long Xingyu looks a bit like someone?
№6 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
…Huh? Who? I don’t see it.
№7 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Yu Ruoyun is such a loser, now he’s even guest-starring in variety shows. His dedicated actor image is completely shattered.
№8 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Wow, the eyebrows really do look a bit similar [image] [image].
№9 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
……………………Uh.
№10 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
I’m at a loss for words. Imma leave. This really looks like a low-budget version of Jiang Yu.
№11 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
I’m so done. How come I can’t even click on a boy band post without running into Jiang Yu’s crazy fans?
Your idol is dead, but seeing someone good-looking makes you say they look like [ ]? You’re just bullying a newcomer with few fans.
№12 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
But for real, at least in the image in post №9, they do look a bit alike.
№13 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Do you think there’s any thread in this forum without Jiang Yu’s crazy fans acting up?
№14 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Seriously, calm down. We tolerate you out of respect for the deceased.
№15 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
The main reason is probably that Long Xingyu is acting with Yu Ruoyun. Everyone knows that Jiang Yu’s fans react to anything related to Yu Ruoyun.
№16 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Yu Ruoyun is so pitiful! Did he owe Jiang Yu money or something? Why not burn a few Best Actor trophies for Jiang Yu at midnight?
№17 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
Those who degrade themselves by acting in web dramas don’t deserve sympathy. Get lost.
№18 ☆☆☆= = Posted on 2018-10-26☆☆☆
It’s late, and all I see are fish, fish, fish*. I’m getting hungry.
*Fish is [yu] (鱼) which sounds the same as the Yu in Jiang Yu’s name.

Kinky Thoughts:
This is technically chapter 43 but is really an extra that could be skipped since it doesn’t impact the main storyline. I decided to do it out of order and put it together with all the extras at the end… I also debated whether to even do this chapter at all since I really… really… hate bystander comments in showbiz novels.
