Five minutes later.
Qu Dan stood on the stage again.
She had changed her clothes, wore a mask, and stood beside Chen Feng with red eyes, looking aggrieved.
The production team did not pause the live broadcast.
However, a storm had already erupted online.
Below the live streaming platform, countless ‘fist fighters’ emerged from the deep mountains and old forests, beginning to diss Chen Feng.
There was a chorus of curses.
“Men are disgusting.”
“No man is a good thing.”
“Most men are scum.”
“Publicly humiliating a female opponent on stage is simply beastly.”
“Eliminate him, investigate him.”
“He definitely took drugs, investigate him.”
“Drug test, strongly demand a drug test.”
… …
The climax the production team wanted had arrived.
And it went viral on trending topics in an unprecedented way.
In the audience.
Ma Jun scrolled through web pages and trending lists, his face unconsciously turning grim.
Holy cow!
What’s going on?
This incident was indeed explosive.
Such a scene appeared in a live broadcast program?
Going viral on trending topics was not difficult.
Chen Feng being cursed was also expected.
But… …
What about Qu Dan?
No one mentioned her?
None of the posts mentioned Qu Dan.
They only infinitely magnified Chen Feng's actions, saying he ‘domestic abused’ an innocent female contestant on the live stage.
Damn it!
The only mention of Qu Dan was the title ‘female contestant’.
Nothing else was mentioned.
Even the name ‘Qu Dan’ was rarely mentioned.
Everyone’s attention seemed to be focused on Chen Feng.
Because of the previous audition, he had already become famous.
The ‘Addict’ label hadn't been removed yet, and now he was wearing the ‘domestic abuser’ label.
Flipping through, it was all about fighting Chen Feng.
This is… …
Wasn't all that effort for nothing?
These damn ‘fist fighters’ online are just messing around.
Ma Jun was furious.
Now, it’s up to the live broadcast.
How will the judges handle this ‘live broadcast accident’?
… …
Finally.
The host handed the stage over to the four judges.
The most respected Jiang Wen picked up the microphone, but did not speak for a long time.
He just frowned and looked at Chen Feng.
Teacher Huang, who was impatient, directly picked up the microphone and said, “I’ll just say one simple sentence. Performance is a highly expressive art form, but it is not a disguise for perversion. For this competition, I choose Qu Dan.”
After speaking, he immediately put down the microphone.
Qu Dan’s light lit up.
The whole venue erupted.
Ma Jun, sitting below, breathed a sigh of relief.
Hehe!
The effect was there.
As long as this promotion round passed, it wouldn't be for nothing.
Qu Dan on stage also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, to maintain her victim persona, she could only show a wronged expression, standing there with teary eyes.
Like a quail.
With the first one making a statement, everyone thought the remaining judges would definitely follow suit.
After all, what kind of person was Teacher Huang?
He also had status and position.
There were also legends about him in the entertainment world, even if he had now become greasy and uninteresting.
But… …
After Teacher Huang finished speaking, none of the other three judges made a sound.
Jiang Wen kept silently looking at Chen Feng.
And Liu Tianchi was deep in thought, his pen constantly writing something?
As for Tong Gege, although she didn't know how to choose, she cleverly glanced at Jiang Wen and Liu Tianchi next to her.
So, the host once again @ Jiang Wen.
He was a heavy hitter.
He had to speak.
Finally, Jiang Wen brought the microphone to his mouth, cleared his throat, looked at Chen Feng, tilted his head, and asked, “Chen Feng, you’re from a professional background, aren’t you?”
The host quickly handed the microphone to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng took the microphone and said calmly, “Yes.”
“So, you understand performance.”
“Yes.”
“Then explain to me, what the hell was that performance just now?”
Jiang Wen’s tone was heavy.
He was inherently a bit thuggish.
Sometimes he spoke without regard for the occasion.
A person who dared to curse even Feng Xiaogang, why would he care if it was a live broadcast?
This line of questioning made everyone’s hearts tighten.
Is he going to blow up?
It’s over!
Chen Feng is definitely finished.
So, the spotlight shone on Chen Feng.
But.
He remained unmoved.
He just held the microphone and said calmly, “The performance style just now was decided by Miss Qu Dan and me together. To be realistic, we had to make the emotions explode more intensely.”
“I didn’t.”
Qu Dan quickly shrieked, “Chen Feng, don’t talk nonsense. I only said you could hit me for real, but I didn’t tell you to hit me like a madman. Don’t confuse right and wrong.”
“Alright then.”
Chen Feng, with a peaceful expression, turned and bowed towards the backstage: “Please, production team, play the behind-the-scenes footage for me, thank you.”
Qu Dan was stunned.
Oh no!
She had a bad feeling.
It was at this moment that she suddenly realized that for the entire day, she seemed to have been trying various methods to make Chen Feng hit her.
Now that she thought about it, it seemed… …
She had fallen into a trap, hadn't she?
Qu Dan suddenly looked at Chen Feng, her eyes wide.
No wonder this guy wouldn’t hit her at all, no matter what she said at first.
He did it on purpose, didn’t he?
In the end, it seemed like she was begging him to hit her.
Qu Dan panicked.
At the same time, the behind-the-scenes footage of the two appeared on the large screen on stage.
From the initial out-of-sync rehearsal, to Liu Tianchi’s guidance, to Qu Dan’s repeated demands for a real hit.
All the behind-the-scenes footage was released.
Including that spectacular slap scene.
That last slap was so clean and decisive, so swift and resolute, it made everyone’s cheeks clench.
He hit her really hard.
The key was, Qu Dan asked for it.
She begged for it.
Finally, even the footage of the two signing the agreement was exposed.
The live broadcast went silent.
Everyone looked at each other.
This matter… …
It’s hard to comment on it now.
According to the force of that last slap in the behind-the-scenes footage, the performance on stage just now didn’t seem too excessive.
Qu Dan’s face turned pale.
Her body swayed precariously.
After all the behind-the-scenes footage had finished playing, Chen Feng then turned to Qu Dan with the microphone and bowed deeply to her: “I am deeply moved by Miss Qu’s dedication to art. You are a role model for all of us in the performing arts industry. This victory belongs to you. Thank you!”
Qu Dan: “…”
A roar of applause erupted in the live venue.
Online.
【I didn’t expect this performance to have such a complex background.】
【This Chen Feng is upright and honest. At least in this matter, he is not wrong. Even at this moment, he is still praising the woman.】
【Beautiful! That sentence was beautifully said!】
【Became a fan.】
【This plot twist really caught me off guard.】
【Chen Feng: I generally don’t lay hands on women, unless the other party pushes… too hard.】
【Hard?】
【Upstairs, watch your words. Beijing cyber police have already noticed you.】
【Turn off the bullet comments for peace of mind. When will the online environment be purified?】
… …
Below the stage.
Ma Jun’s face was ashen.
Even the wisest make mistakes.
He was so focused on having Chen Feng hit her for real that he actually forgot that the production team might be even more shameless.
Even if there’s nothing wrong, they’ll edit something for people to criticize.
What’s more, there was something wrong?
Now?
It’s overhyped, isn’t it?
Although online public opinion was surging, it was all about Chen Feng.
Did anyone pay attention to the weak woman who was hit?
When she was mentioned, it seemed there were only two words.
Serves her right!
You asked for it.
Damn it!
That stings!
