Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 76 Scandal, Fan Zhiwei comes to pick a fight (Seeking follow-up reading)
The drama "Smile Pasta" has received a lot of attention.

The protagonist Wu Zhuo is a member of the recently popular idol group Fahrenheit.

Wang Xinling is a rising star in recent years. Her songs and TV dramas are popular.

This is the third collaboration between the two.

Also because this is their third collaboration, after the media exposed this matter, rumors about the two of them have been flying all over Taiwan recently.

[Fahrenheit member Wu Zhuo is suspected to be dating Wang Xinling]

[Sweetheart leader Wang Xinling is suspected to be in love with newcomer Wu Zhuo]

The day after the filming of "Smiling Pasta" started, there was a break in the shooting. Xiao An brought today's newspaper to Wu Chao, and then he saw all kinds of news about his relationship with Cyndi Wang.

Xiao An handed Wu Zhuo a thirst-quenching drink and said, "Sister Xiaoying said that you don't need to respond to these news for the time being."

Wu Zhuo frowned.

Of course he knows what the company wants to do.

It's nothing more than taking this opportunity to copy the scandal between him and Cyndi Wang to increase attention.

Wu Chao is not averse to hype.

But hype is hype, this matter is about Cyndi Wang after all, so he feels it is necessary to communicate with Cyndi Wang.

Just as he was thinking this, Cyndi Wang finished filming her scene and walked towards him.

"Sometimes I think the script is so stupid. There is no such thing as bad luck in love."

As Wang Xinling spoke, she sat down on the chair next to Wu Zhuo.

"The story of Cinderella and the rich and handsome man is the most popular genre nowadays. Audiences like this kind of movie."

Wu Zhuo replied with a smile.

Taiwan's idol dramas are actually all of the same origin, whether they are large-scale investments or small-scale productions, or works by different actors.

After years of development, the production company has already figured out the thread.

Wu Zhuo heard that when a production company makes an idol drama, they will write the script based on two characteristics.

1. The male protagonist must be either handsome or rich, or even both, and the female protagonist must be from an ordinary family.

2. The hero and heroine each have suitors with good conditions. The heroine's rival may even be better-looking than the heroine in background, but the hero is strongly and unwaveringly attracted to her inner beauty. The three parties are entangled in a series of misunderstandings and resolving misunderstandings.

With these two characteristics at the core, idol dramas come out one after another, changing the skin but not the substance, and the actors but not the story.

"Smiling Pasta" is also such a story.

The male protagonist He Qun is an idol star who is rich and powerful.

The heroine Cheng Xiaoshi comes from an ordinary family and possesses all the necessary elements of an idol drama. Unfortunately, she was dumped by her ex-boyfriend...

"Yeah! That's the type everyone likes!"

Wang Xinling nodded subconsciously. The dramas she had acted in before were actually similar to this one, just a different soup for the sake of substance.

After taking a sip of the drink handed over by the assistant, Wang Xinling suddenly said:
"My agent said that they would tie us together to create a scandal. It seems that it was Sanli who proposed it. What do you think?"

"You knew?" Wu Zhuo was stunned, then smiled and said, "I thought you didn't know. I was just worried that the company would stir up rumors and cause you inconvenience!"

"How could that be, you underestimate yourself.

Fahrenheit is very popular right now, and it would be good for me to have a scandal with you."

Wang Xinling doesn't care much about this.

Although she is a love-brained person, she also understands the benefits of creating scandals for herself.

"If you have no problem with that, then I certainly have no problem with that either!"

Seeing Wang Xinling say this, Wu Zhuo no longer rejected it...

Sanli, Komi, and Avex quickly reached a tacit understanding and began to work together to promote Wu Zhuo and Wang Xinling. First, an insider of the crew broke the news that Wu Zhuo and Wang Xinling were very close and spent some time together almost every day.

Then another reporter announced that both Wu Zhuo and Wang Xinling graduated from Huagang, and "Smiling Pasta" was their third collaboration.

Three collaborations, Wu Zhuo's first MV, first album, first TV drama lead...

Once this line is strung together, it immediately gives people endless imagination.

In the following days, Wu Zhuo saw several news reports, and the views expressed in them made him smile bitterly.

Among these opinions, some people dug out that the original first choice for the "Fahrenheit" group was not Wu Zhuo, but another person named Wu Genglin, but in the end Wu Zhuo became one of the members.

The media didn't care that Wang Xinling had nothing to do with Comic, and directly put the credit on Wang Xinling, saying that Wu Zhuo was able to become a member of Fahrenheit because of Wang Xinling.

There is even a guy who goes by the pen name "看瓜吃瓜" who proposed a "four at a time" theory.

In this statement, he speculated that Wu Zhuo and Wang Xinling should be first love, and Wang Xinling's first time should have been given to Wu Zhuo, so she had to use three onces to help Wu Zhuo.

When Wu Zhuo, who was eating at the time, saw the news, he burst out laughing.

He didn't expect that the media in Taiwan could be so outrageous.

I just made up stories based on hearsay and nonsense.

This news actually has no impact on Wu Chao.

Taiwan is relatively open in this regard. On variety shows, people can even talk about their first time. Even if such things are reported in the news, they just add some fun to the audience.

But he doesn't care, someone else does.

First of all, it was Guo Biting. After hearing the news, she immediately called Wu Zhuo and asked worriedly:
"Are you and Cyndi Wang really still together?"

"It's hype! It's hype!" Wu Zhuo could only explain helplessly.

It took a lot of effort to finally appease Guo Biting.

Then, another person who is of concern is Wang Xinling’s current boyfriend Fan Zhiwei.

This guy ran straight to the door of the crew and blocked Wu Chao.

"Little white face, I'm warning you, you'd better stay away from Li Lingyuan."

At the entrance of "Smile Pasta", Wu Chao had just come out when he was blocked by Fan Zhiwei who had been waiting there for a long time.

Speaking of which, Fan Zhiwei has some reputation in the industry.

In 2002, he played the leading role as Ze Qiwen in the movie "Salty Soy Milk", for which he won the Best Actor Award at the 24th Nantes Film Festival in France.

In the same year, he played the role of Xiao Wei in the movie "Beautiful Time". In November, he won the Best Actor Award at the Singapore Film Festival and was nominated for the Best Actor Award at the 11th Golden Horse Awards.

His performance in "Beautiful Time" attracted the favor of director Wong Kar-wai, and he was signed by Zedong Film Company, belonging to the same company as Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Maggie Cheung and others.

In 2003, he starred in the TV series "The Bad Son", in which he played the role of Li Qing, who developed a gay relationship with his best friend at school and was kicked out of the house by his father. There were many inner dramas in the play. He was nominated for the 38th Taiwan Television Golden Bell Award for Best Actor in a TV Series for this role, and began to become familiar to the film industry outside Taiwan.

However, after 2004, for unknown reasons, he withdrew from Zedong Films and gradually faded out of the film industry.

"First of all, Mr. Fan, let me explain to you that my relationship with Sister Xinling is purely a friendship.

You are his boyfriend, I understand your unhappiness.

But, that's no excuse for you to come in front of me and threaten me.

If I were you, I would leave here right now."

Wu Zhuo said with a cold face.

As he spoke, his two bodyguards rushed over from where they had parked their car.

When they saw that Fan Zhiwei's finger was about to point at Wu Chao's forehead, they were suddenly shocked. One of them rushed forward and used a grappling technique to pin Fan Zhiwei to the ground.
