Superstars start as villains

Chapter 23 has a reverse ending.

After this episode of the program was broadcast, the number of letters received by the TV station began to decrease, and the operator was finally relieved. There were also fewer people walking on the street scolding Zhou Xing, and more people paid attention to him.

Of course, when [Xun Qin Zhuan] was broadcast, the voices of scolding Lian Jin were still very high. This character is much more hated than Zhao Mu, Lu Buwei and others.

If all this goes on as planned, Zhou Xing will still be just an unknown little actor, at most he will be recognized by the audience when he starred in the next play: Isn't this Lian Jin?
However, on this day, a newspaper published an editorial titled: Everyone wants to be Xiang Shaolong, but life turns us into Lian Jin.

However, this newspaper is Ming Pao.

As one of the top ten newspapers in Hong Kong by circulation, Ming Pao covers a wide range of people, and most importantly, this topic has aroused heated discussions in the entire Hong Kong society.

As a result, some people who had never watched the TV series "Xun Qin Zhuan" started to look back at the novel to understand the plot. For a while, the novel "Xun Qin Zhuan" was sold and printed, and the author couldn't close his mouth with laughter.

At the same time, the ratings of the follow-up episodes of the TV series are also skyrocketing.

In fact, the main reason why this topic can trigger heated discussions among the people of Xiangjiang is that the gap between the rich and the poor is too large.

Xiangjiang has always advocated the "myth of making wealth". Li Jiachen is called Li Chaoren, and top rich people like the four major families have always been sought after by ordinary people.

This is how the so-called "laughing at the poor and not laughing at the prostitutes" came about. The life pressure in Xiangjiang is undoubtedly huge. The land area is only 1106.34 square kilometers, but there are 750 million permanent residents, and there are also a large number of migrants and black households.

The shortage of land also means that most of the materials here need to be transported from other places, which directly leads to extremely high prices, such as some very common fruits, which can often be sold at sky-high prices in Xiangjiang.

The high cost of living has made ordinary people breathless, especially the soaring housing prices, which has almost made the people of Xiangjiang see no hope. This is why many people in Xiangjiang love gambling. If you can't afford a house, you might as well take a gamble.

Of course, in the end, you often lose everything.

Sociology Professor Qiu from Hong Kong University commented on this topic in Oriental Daily.

"In fact, this is a sociological problem. When we were young, we longed to be the protagonist of the world. However, as we grew up, we found that this society is unfair. From the moment you step into the society, you will be judged by your family." Background, education level and other conditions are separated, and everyone's social class is different. If you want to break through the existing class, you have to put in much more effort than others, and the higher you go, you You will find that the harder this class barrier is, it is almost unbreakable."

"At this time, there is no way to use conventional means to get you to the next level. Then, the multiple-choice question is in front of you. Will you use some unconventional means to advance yourself? For example, breaking the law? Selling conscience? Most people will Lose yourself in the face of interests."

Dongfang Daily, as the top three newspapers in Hong Kong, has a higher circulation than Ming Pao. Once this comment was released, it once again ignited the whole Hong Kong.

As a result, more and more experts, scholars, and literati began to discuss this topic in major media.

For a while, the whole of Xiangjiang seemed to have nothing else going on. I often saw two people for no reason suddenly quarreling, and the noise became more and more fierce. The people next to me saw it and hurried forward to persuade them not to fight. Woke up.

The result is that more and more people join the ranks of quarrels. People are all subjective animals. It is almost impossible to seek common ground while reserving differences and be absolutely rational.

When two people with different values ​​argue, there are only two results: you think he is an idiot, and he thinks you are an idiot.

However, judging from the numbers of the two camps, the realists still have the upper hand. The realists believe that becoming a "Lian Jin" is caused by the environment and is justifiable, while the rhetoric of the opposition is because they have not endured the beatings of the real society. And happy to beat them up on behalf of the "social dad".

On the other hand, the opposition believes that the realists are extreme in their thinking. Even if the environment is under pressure, they must stick to the moral bottom line and cannot sell their souls for money and power, otherwise they will become their slaves.

Even in the final round of the debate, Xiangjiang University used this as the topic to allow contestants from both sides to have a final duel. This year's debate has also received unprecedented attention.

The final result was a tie. According to the debate skills, the positive side was definitely better, but the opposing side’s views were more in line with mainstream social values. The school was worried that the positive side’s victory would have a negative impact, so they decided a tie.

So this debate once again detonated this topic.

After three consecutive rounds of explosive publicity, one can imagine how popular this topic is. The finale of "Xun Qin Biography" was broadcast, and the ratings were as high as 67%. The TV station couldn't close their mouths with laughter.

However, what is surprising is that, with such a hot ratings, except for the male number one Le Ge, the rest of the leading actors did not get much attention. On the contrary, Zhou Xing, who played the anti-number one , In one fell swoop, he became a well-known actor with little fame.

Many people did not expect such a result, even Zhou Xing himself did not expect that what he said at the beginning was just to win everyone's sympathy and let the audience stop scolding him.

As a result, I accidentally used too much force, and it became a social topic.

In Zhou Xing's words: This pretense is a bit big!
Of course, the reason why Zhou Xing's image in the audience's mind was reversed is due to the plot of the finale. , Still die generously, but in the end, he can only watch himself and Zhu Ji's children being thrown to death, Zhu Ji also commits suicide.

Many viewers who hated Lian Jin (Lao Ai) so much that their teeth were itchy, suddenly all their hatred disappeared, and they even felt a little sympathetic to him.

Undoubtedly, Lian Jin (Lao Ai) is not a ruthless person. At first everyone thought that he clings to Zhu Ji just for power, but the facts prove that he is willing to die for Zhu Ji and their children.

At this moment, many viewers began to sympathize with Lian Jin, thinking that his death was too tragic.

So, the one being scolded this time became Lin Shao. Who told him to play Ying Zheng not only to attack the children, but also to not let go of the protagonist Xiang Shaolong?

Zhou Xing, who got rid of the notoriety, is now happily watching his fan value soar all the way, it feels more exciting than racing.
