Chapter 8: Entertainment Industry Female Paparazzi 8

In the end, the matter was settled. It’s unclear how much money Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s company spent to ensure their safety, but they managed to escape unscathed. However, judging by their recent frantic activities, it seems the company plans to squeeze every bit of commercial value from them, with no mercy.

Many others, however, were marked as bad actors and had their careers ruined. This earthquake-like scandal caused unprecedented shockwaves within the entertainment industry.

Ren Xin continued with her usual eating and drinking, still promoting and hyping up Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s “Ancient Tomb CP.”

【Our Ancient Tomb CP continues to shine brightly, standing strong as the best in the industry. Look at those bad actors, they have no morality and no basic human decency. We absolutely won’t forgive them. Everyone should learn from our Ancient Tomb CP. Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s statement is practically a benchmark for the industry and everyone should follow their example.】

Once this Weibo post was published, many die-hard fans immediately started echoing the sentiment, calling their idols the best, and emphasizing the need to see what true idols in the entertainment industry should look like.

This time, she had offended many people.

The fans’ behavior falls back on the celebrities themselves. Ren Xin just casually ate a tomato. She had done this before, stirring trouble among the fans, with several successful cases.

She was very skilled at this.

After this exposure, the account “Gossip King” had turned into a major influencer with millions of active followers.

Every post was a solid piece of evidence, with no exaggeration or trickery. It drew attention because it was real news.

Fans praised the Gossip King as the conscience of the entertainment industry.

Six paparazzi continued to help Ren Xin, and aside from keeping an eye on Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng, troublemaker would occasionally throw in some extra gossip.

One day, troublemaker reached out. “Gold Sister, my team found a scandal.”

Ren Xin immediately sat up, interested. “Tell me, tell me! By the way, does it cost money?”

“Not this time. It’s just something to pass the time.”

Ren Xin smirked. “Alright, let’s hear it.”

“Do you know about the B-brand face mask that’s been trending lately?”

Ren Xin thought for a moment. “Is it the one where Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng were the joint spokespeople?”

“Yes, yes! The ingredients list of their face mask contains carcinogenic¹ elements, and the foreign boss is arrogant, saying that domestic fans are brainwashed by idols, and that as long as idols give some vague explanation, everything will be fine.”

Well… an opportunity handed to her on a silver platter.

“Are your sources reliable?”

“Are you doubting my professionalism? I’ve been in this industry for years, and I have countless informants. There’s no way it’s wrong…”

“Alright, alright. I get it, your mouth’s so sharp, you must be a pro.”

“Ugh, I’m so mad! If I had known, I’d have charged you for the info.”

Ren Xin skimmed through the chemical terms, finally concluding that one of the additives was indeed carcinogenic.

But Ren Xin didn’t take immediate action. She was waiting, waiting for the right opportunity.

Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s collaborative drama The Scheming Prince and His Beautiful Consort was about to premiere. It was originally a small-budget web drama, but with Gu Pan’an’s star power, it had turned into a major hit.

【I’ve been waiting for so long, and it’s finally going to air.】

【”Although Gu Pan’an’s acting is great, is he really serious about participating in a web drama like this?”】

【Our Ancient Tomb CP is raising the flag high, they’re together! Oh my god, I can’t believe it, I’m so excited to watch~~】

【CP fans, can you be more rational and not bring your fan culture here?】

【Shut up!】

【Are you a fan of another celebrity? Trying to stir up trouble here? I see through your ulterior motives…】

【Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s fans are just like this, following the same nonsense.】

Ren Xin played all sides, chatting and stirring the pot online.

Let the fight begin

This was her true joy.
