Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Attached to the post was a one-minute video that had been taken from the most popular variety show of the mont, “Happy Magical Night.”.
On the stage, four stars sat facing the cara, each holding an answer board in their hands.
All of them were young artistes. They included two male idols, one of which was Lin Fengmian, one male actor, and one female singer.
Lin Fengmian sat closest to the cara.
After all, he was the most popular one on the scene.
His slightly ssy hair was dyed blue, his skin was extrely fair, and his facial features were three-dinsional and exquisite.
When the cara was close-up, the diamond earring on the cross on his left ear gently swayed, shining brilliantly.
There was a tear mole at the corner of his eye, which complented the pure face of the youth, and exuded a slight seductive charm.
Even though he was just sitting there quietly, he was still shining brightly. He was a natural superstar.
The two hosts, one male and one female, stood opposite each other.
The male host smiled and said, “The last question will be the ancient poetry contest. I will read out the first part of the sentence and whoever writes the next part of the sentence correctly will get another five points!”
The female host’s gaze fell on Lin Fengmian with sparkling eyes.
“Currently, Fengmian is in the lead. As long as you answer correctly, you’ll win!”
Even if they were performing on the sa stage, there was a difference in the way an artiste was treated, depending on whether they were popular or not.
The two hosts obviously gave more cues to Lin Fengmian, and most of the gas and topics revolved around him.
The female singer sitting next to him looked at the score in front of Lin Fengmian and sighed with envy.
“I don’t think I can win.”
Another male idol smiled and echoed, “Fengmian has answered all the questions correctly. He is so smart. He will definitely be in first place.”
The last male actor did not say anything. The expression on his face remained calm, as if he was listening to the host attentively.
The male host slowly read the question out.
“Everyone, please listen carefully. This is a Tang poem. The first sentence is: ‘Most good things are not reliable– Please write down the next sentence!”
Upon hearing this, the artistes quickly reacted and lowered their heads to write.
The female singer was delighted at first, but then she seed to be unable to rember it no matter how hard she tried. She began to look a little anxious.
Only Lin Fengmian seed to be montarily stunned. There seed to be a faint glow of light in his light brown eyes.
He did not move.
The male host was already counting down the ti.
The female singer next to him cried out in surprise:
“Ah! I rember now!”
As she spoke, she imdiately started writing on the answer board.
The female host noticed that Lin Fengmian had not moved and gave him a reminder.
“Fengmian? The ti is almost up.”
Lin Fengmian ca back to his senses. He lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes. He picked up a pen and wrote a line of words.
“Five, four, three, two, one! Ti is up! Please reveal your answer board!”
With the male host’s order, the small group of artistes stopped writing and raised the answer boards one by one.
“Okay, now let’s announce the correct answer– Colorful clouds are easily dispersed, like fragile glass!”
The female host said in surprise, “Wow, everyone answered this question correctly! So–”
“Wait!” The male host took a step forward.
The cara zood in and swept over the answers of the artistes.
The other three had written “Colorful clouds are easily dispersed, like fragile glass”, but only Lin Fengmian...
He had written: Colorful clouds are easily dispersed, like green glass.
The male host looked at Lin Fengmian in surprise. “One of Fengmian’s words is wrong. What a pity!”
He explained with a smile, “The correct word should be ‘fragile’!”
Lin Fengmian had been in the lead so far, and the last question was very simple. Everyone had thought that he would definitely win.
Who could have guessed that such a small mistake would occur, and he would miss out on achieving first place.
The audience could hear the regretful sighs of the fans.
Lin Fengmian, however, did not seem to care much. He looked at his answer board again. His long eyelashes covered the expression in his eyes, and only the corner of his lips could be seen to be slightly pursed.
The video ended.
The blogger was still mocking him a lot in the comnts section.
[ Please! You learned this poem in elentary school, right? The colorful clouds are easily dispersed... Of course, the corresponding line would be ‘like fragile glass’! I really don’t know what Lin Fengmian was thinking, to be able to write a poem like this?! ]
There were many people who followed up with their replies.
[ Hahaha! Blogger, don’t be so calculative with an illiterate who hasn’t completed nine years of compulsory education, right? He’s been working really hard abroad. How would he have the ti to learn this kind of thing? ]
[ I really can’t stop laughing. Earlier, when I saw how smoothly he answered the other questions, I thought that this person had so knowledge, but in the end, the tables really turned on him unexpectedly! Hahahaha! Green glass?! Hahahaha! ]
[ His fans say that he worked abroad several years ago, but he’s only 18 this year. That ans he really didn’t go to school, right? ]
[ The threshold of the entertainnt industry is getting lower and lower. Can anyone beco a star? After making so much money, can you just buy a few more books to read? ]
...
Ning Li scrolled through the comnts for a while. Most of the hot comnts were trampling on Lin Fengmian, and the criticism was very unpleasant.
It seed quite clear that soone had purposely bought a troll army for this Weibo post, and the haters were jumping around in it.
However, the word that Lin Fengmian had written really had been incorrect, so many passers-by also jumped on the bandwagon.
After scrolling down for a long ti, they finally saw Lin Fengmian’s fans retorting.
[ The child made a mistake in writing one word. Is there a need to be so uptight? Could it be that the gods in the comnts can guarantee that they will never make any mistakes for the rest of their lives? ]
Unfortunately, these refutations were quickly drowned out.
After all, compared to the fans, the number of passersby was the largest.
Everyone could see clearly that he had written the wrong word. There was no way to refute it.
This variety show had been broadcast at eight o’clock tonight.
It had only just been released and it was not even nine o’clock. Yet, soone had specially cut out this segnt and posted it on the Internet.
At the sa ti, all the haters and spamrs started a dispute. Their actions were swift.
Not long after, this Weibo post had already exceeded 10,000 reposts.
Ning Li clicked on the trending search, and sure enough, she saw Lin Fengmian’s na. She had already uploaded it.
# Lin Fengmian’s colorful clouds are easily dispersed, like green glass. #
# Lin Fengmian is illiterate. #
The search volu quickly increased.
That Weibo post had already left the circle, firmly occupying the top position of the topic square. Anyone who clicked on it would be the first to see it.
There were even so haters who had started a topic —
# raising funds to buy Lin Fengmian “Three Hundred Poems of the Tang Dynasty”#
Lin Fengmian had debuted half a year ago, and he had quickly climbed to the top of the entertainnt industry. While he had attracted countless fans, he had also attracted countless jealousy and hatred.
The share of the pie for the male stars to be idolized in the entertainnt industry was only so big. If he took too much, he would naturally leave less for others.
There had long been opponents who did not like him and were secretly waiting for an opportunity to teach him a lesson.
However, Lin Fengmian was indeed talented. His achievents along the way were extrely eye-catching, even though he remained modest and low-key. Almost everyone who had worked with him had praised him for being polite and sensible.
Thus, he had never given anyone a chance to attack him.
Until now...
He had exposed his own shortcomings and made such a mistake. Who would let it go?
Of course, there were people who would seize the opportunity to criticize him to death.
He Xiaochen was obviously very angry at these remarks.
[ Didn’t he just write one word wrong? Brother’s answers to the previous questions were all very good! He only made a mistake in the end. These people’s criticisms are too terrible! ]
Ning Li’s expression was calm.
That had not been a mistake.
