This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 25 Should I Avoid His Adversity? (Please read on! Please vote!)
The reporters and social media users saw the nanny van as soon as it arrived.

Last night, the topic of "Sailor Lu Ran" trended on social media, and Lu Ran emerged as a dark horse in the entertainment industry.

As of this morning, the song "Sailor" has entered the top ten of the new song charts on major music platforms.

It can be said that Lu Ran became an overnight sensation.

In this day and age, traffic and popularity are the most important things.

Even an unknown nobody can gain popularity that surpasses that of top celebrities within a certain period of time.

With popularity comes the desire to ride the wave.

Lu Ran is a student at Qincheng University; this is public information.

In addition, Lu Ran has been filming on set these past few days, so it's easy to find out his whereabouts with just a little inquiry.

This is unavoidable.

Like sharks that have smelled blood, the reporters rushed toward the van with microphones and cameras.

However, at this moment, Meng Yichuan gave an order.

"Fuck them all!"

The extras standing around obeyed the director's instructions and formed a U-shape in front of the van, firmly blocking the reporters from entering.

This situation was within Li Quan's expectations, so he had informed Meng Yichuan well in advance.

There were quite a few extras for today's scene, so they came in handy.

For these extras, it doesn't matter what they do, as long as the money is right.

However, the extras were also quite puzzled.

Isn't this just a small-scale online movie?
What other big stars could come?

Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?

Is this just for show?

After all, there is a profession in the entertainment industry called "celebrity identity empowerment marketer," which involves playing the role of a fake fan.

Just as the extras were pondering, the door of the van slowly opened, and a handsome figure stepped out of the vehicle.

The figure was tall and imposing, with an extraordinary air about him. He was dressed in an executive jacket, suit pants, and black leather shoes, making him appear very upright.

The extras were all stunned.

"Are these city leaders here for an inspection?"

"Which high-ranking leader is it that has attracted so many reporters?"

"Isn't the leader too young?"

By this time, some of the extras had already recognized him.

Most of the extras today are newcomers who haven't seen Lu Ran before, but there are a few who have.

"Lu Ran, it's Lu Ran!"

As soon as one of the extras shouted it out, the other extras all looked over.

"Is he Lu Ran, the singer of Sailor?"

"Holy crap? Lu Ran is actually on our set?"

"No wonder there are so many reporters!"

Why is he dressed like that?

These people don't know Director Lu's identity yet.

At this moment, Lu Ran had already gotten out of the car.

With his talent for micro-expression control, he wore a bright, sunny smile and waved to the reporters, ensuring he was handsome from every angle.

Lu Ran was a little nervous but also excited when he saw this scene for the first time.

His left hand was loosely clenched under his sleeve, his palm already covered in sweat.

This is what it feels like to be a big star.

Countless cameras are pointed at you, countless eyes are watching you.

The reporters, who had prepared all their questions for the swarming crowd, were all stunned by Lu Ran's appearance.

These reporters were all entertainment reporters, but when they saw a man in an administrative jacket come down, they assumed he was a city official and didn't dare to speak for a moment.

Only after confirming that it was Lu Ran did they breathe a sigh of relief and begin asking questions.

"Lu Ran, what were you doing last night when the Future Singer King aired? How were you feeling at the time?"

What do you think of Jiang Yaofeng's evaluation of you?

"Netizens are all criticizing your Weibo nickname, 'Lu Burning Bar,' have you considered changing it?"

The reporters' questions came out one after another like a machine gun.

Several questions were mixed together, making it impossible for Lu Ran to answer them even if he wanted to.

However, Lu Ran quickly figured out what to do.

He cleared his throat and said slowly, "Everyone, please calm down and don't rush. We'll all have a chance. Let's go to the courtyard first and not block the way."

Lu Ran's words were infectious, and his gentle tone and sunny expression gave people a sense of approachability, so the reporters all quieted down.

The main problem was that Lu Ran's administrative jacket was just too outrageous, making him look like an old cadre.

Lu Ran then walked into the courtyard of the farmhouse, surrounded by a group of extras.

He walks steadily. Because of his continuous exercise during this period, his posture has changed. As long as he pays attention, he will not slouch.

In the entertainment industry, basic etiquette is a required course for celebrities.

After walking one meter inside the gate of the farmhouse courtyard, he turned around and looked behind him, instructing the extras: "Block the entrance."

The numerous extras immediately stood up straight, blocking the entrance to the farmhouse courtyard with their bodies, preventing even one reporter from entering.

The gossip in the hearts of these extras is burning fiercely.

No one expected to see Lu Ran, the singer who became an overnight sensation, in person, let alone experience this interview process firsthand.

Let alone standing guard for Lu Ran, let's have more of this kind of excitement, anyway, the director pays us.

At this moment, Lu Ran did not rush to answer the reporter's questions, but went to the yard to find a low stool.

After placing the stool where he had just come in, he went to ask Meng Yichuan for a megaphone.

This kind of thing is also commonly seen on film sets.

Lei Lei asked疑惑地问道, "What is he trying to do?"

Zheng Yunxiang shook his head.

Who can keep up with Lu Ran's thought process?

This guy can be a bit weird sometimes. At this moment, Lu Ran stood on the small stool he had put down earlier, making him a head taller than the extras blocking the door, so that everyone could see him.

"Hello, fellow journalists."

At this moment, almost all the cameras were pointing their phones or cameras at Lu Ran.

Everyone was recording videos and taking photos, but after seeing Lu Ran arrive, they all started live streaming.

At this crucial moment, we must go live!

That's right, I always feel like they're not entertainment reporters, but political reporters.

Once all the reporters had turned to look at him, Lu Ran continued, "To maintain order, please raise your hands. You will be selected to ask questions. Please raise your hands now."

The reporters were even more confused.

You're really good at maintaining order!

The reporters all raised their hands.

Lu Ran randomly picked someone.

"Please ask the question to the reporter on my right who is wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt."

The man in the blue short-sleeved shirt pointed to himself, a look of confusion on his face.

"I live nearby and came to see what was going on."

Lu Ran nodded slightly and continued, "Please do not raise your hand if you do not intend to ask a question. Time is very tight, so please leave the opportunity to those who need it."

It was under a shaded area to the side.

Zheng Yunxiang and Lei Lei looked at each other in bewilderment.

Lei Lei stared in disbelief: "Lu Ran's way of answering questions is so proper! Why does this scene feel so familiar?"

Zheng Yunxiang stroked his chin and said, "I also feel a bit familiar with it."

Meng Yichuan reminded him, "That's how ministers answer reporters' questions when there are major conferences in Beijing."

In an instant, Zheng Yunfeng and Lei Lei both realized what was going on.

Although they don't follow news in this area, they have come across related videos.

Wow, have you progressed from positive energy to political energy?

The reporters didn't pay attention to these details. After raising their hands again, Lu Ran selected a reporter.

The reporter asked him what he did last night and how he felt.

Lu Ran replied, "I was running on the school playground last night when Future Singer was broadcasting. I was still very excited. To be honest, thank you all for liking the song Sailor. This song was also a beacon for me during the lowest point of my life. It is my luck to be able to use this song to illuminate others."

The reporters were stunned.

It's hard to imagine that Lu Ran's answer was so formal and so full of positive energy.

This is a complete slap in the face compared to the illiterate people in the entertainment industry today.

No wonder they are students of Qincheng University!

Then, it was time for the next reporter to ask a question.

"Netizens are all criticizing your Weibo name. Have you considered changing it?"

Lu Ran said seriously, "When it burns, it can emit light. Lu Burning Bar has this meaning. I will not change my name. I also want to remind everyone to pay attention to fire safety and not to burn when it should not burn."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Finally, it even had a double entendre.

Then, a new round of questions began.

The reporter was asking Lu Ran's opinion on Jiang Yaofeng's evaluation.

After the movie "Sailor" became a hit last night, another hot topic was Jiang Yaofeng's comments on the film.

Outside the group of reporters, Li Quan narrowed his eyes slightly.

This question is a bit provocative.

Reporters in the entertainment industry are very good at stirring up trouble.

If this question isn't answered well, it will definitely damage Lu Ran's image.

These days, quite a few celebrities have been punished for their words.

The reporters' eyes were all fixed on Lu Ran.

This is a sensitive topic.

In reality, Lu Ran didn't care at all.

What sensitive topic?
Is anything more sensitive than the Middle East?
If you ask me how I view the Israeli-Palestinian situation, I honestly don't know how to answer.

Lu Ran replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Thank you for your professional guidance, Professor Jiang."

He paused for a moment and then continued, "The straightforward lyrics and simple melody are the characteristics of 'Sailor.' Like a lotus emerging from clear water, it is natural and unadorned. Sincere expression sometimes does not need too much embellishment. This song was originally written for those who persevere in the face of wind and rain. Keeping it simple may make it easier for people to remember it."

After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

Lu Ran's cultural literacy is truly remarkable; he even came up with a poem.

At this moment, Li Quan stepped forward and said, "Dear reporters, that's enough for today. We need to start filming now. There will be other opportunities later. Please forgive me. I am Lu Ran's agent. You can also ask me questions."

Li Quan has a keen eye for these things; these reporters can no longer conduct interviews.

Upon hearing that Li Quan was Lu Ran's agent, the group turned their attention to Li Quan.

Lu Ran put down the megaphone and walked over to Meng Yichuan.

Meng Yichuan gave Lu Ran a thumbs up: "You're really cultured, kid. Your natural beauty shines through, like a lotus emerging from clear water. Did you write this?"

"No, I wrote it down after reading it in a book, but I forgot which book it was."

To be honest, Lu Ran didn't know if this poem existed in this world, but it didn't matter.

This era is no longer the era of poetry. Even if you write a great poem, you'll only get some praise.

Zheng Yunxiang exclaimed, "You're really bold to confront Jiang Yaofeng like that."

Lu Ran's words just now were also barbed.

What does it mean to be as beautiful as a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally beautiful without any artifice?

It just means Jiang Yaofeng has too many ornaments.

Lei Lei looked worried: "Jiang Yaofeng is a top star after all. You should avoid his sharp edge, otherwise it will be detrimental to you later."

Lu Ran's firm voice reached everyone's ears.

"Should I avoid his edge?"

Thank you to the third male lead in the boy group for the donation, and thank you everyone for your monthly tickets and for following the story.
