Chapter 33: Rise Chicken Feet Limited Group, God Of War Per Person
He’s seen stars fighting over resources, and plenty of Main Idols personally getting involved in fights.
But someone like Chi Ye, where the Main Idol himself sticks close to “Gank the director,” this is truly the first time he’s seen it!
That’s not right.
If the old Chi Ye had this kind of “drive” for his career, with his looks, he should’ve blown up long ago!
Director Zhang was puzzled, just kept sighing—he was thinking about how to persuade Han Xing Entertainment to accept this.
Chi Ye shook his head: “You don’t get it, being ordinary is just my camouflage.”
Director Zhang: “…”
He wanted to say something, but in the end just sighed: “You take a class to improve your acting skills, that’s no problem, right?”
Chi Ye thought about it, sincerely: “Actually, my acting skills are pretty decent now.”
Director Zhang: “…”
In just two short minutes of meeting, he was actually silenced by Chi Ye three times.
As expected of you!
“Since it’s settled, shall we discuss the script now?”
Chi Ye is a very career-driven person, and coming to Screaming Night this time was mainly for the Male Lead role in Circulation.
Now that it’s settled, he’s read the script, and the director is right there, so not to ride on it… cough cough, not discuss it, wouldn’t that be a pity?
It’s just… how to ride on the director, he’s still thinking about that.
Circulation is a Han Xing Entertainment project.
And after brief observation, he could clearly feel that Director Zhang was the type of newbie director fresh out of school, still hot-blooded, with a bit of background, and extremely valuing his work.
For this kind of person, not to mention he couldn’t ride on Han Xing Entertainment at all, even if he could, the result probably wouldn’t be great.
So, he had to take it slow.
“Oh? You actually read the script?!” Director Zhang was unusually surprised, and inexplicably felt a bit relieved inside.
At least, he read the script.
This proves he at least knows how to read!
Not just 123456!
Chi Ye: “…”
Exactly how much do you all misunderstand me?
The two started chatting casually, one remark here and there.
……
Front row, near the front round table.
Shang Youshu gracefully adjusted her skirt hem and sat back in her seat.
Friends at the neighboring table greeted her, and she responded with a composed smile.
But the pair of jade hands hidden under the table had already secretly pulled out her mobile phone, logging into her alt account on Weibo to post on Screaming.
@Today Also Gonna Ship Till Death: 【Who gets it, family! When I got caught gossiping, I even thought up my epitaph—Here lies a Moonlight goddess, shattered in the midnight without hearing the big gossip!】
Caption: Self-made teary panda head sticker pack, with the endorsement sponsor Pearl carefully P-ed into the corner of the eye!
After posting, the alt account had several hundred “gossip buddies,” all fired up one by one.
【Gossip Lord, what good gossip to share this time?】
【I’m an expose blogger who only follows you, you’ve got real stuff!
【Boss, join the group for details!】
Shang Youshu also felt the relief of “surviving a disaster,” then switched to the WeChat “gossip group” she created, ready to chat in detail with these gossip buddies she’d never met.
But at that moment, her eyes suddenly lit up, noticing a figure she’d been “searching” for—Peng Chen was dark-faced, rising from the round table, mobile phone in hand, walking to a corner.
What was he saying?
Was it about shitting himself on the red carpet?
Really want to go listen…
Shang Youshu strongly suppressed her gossip desire; she had to maintain her persona.
Once seated, she couldn’t move!
……
In the corner.
Peng Chen was dark-faced, trembling all over: “What do you mean I supposedly shat myself on the spot?! And biochemical weapon! Is this a normal hot search term? Which idiot bought it for me?!”
He’d just entered the inner venue and calmed down, but seeing the glaring “slander” on the hot search terms, he instantly shook with rage.
The popularity was too high; the top two hot searches had exploded!
On the phone, the agent was also grim-faced, grinding her teeth: “Someone’s definitely targeting you.”
“It’s Jiang Yi! That bastard, damn him, he didn’t come to Screaming Night this time, or I’d jump up and punch him!”
Peng Chen was furious to the point of madness: “Ever since the unbinding, he’s been messing with me, this time he finally got the chance, fuck!”
Agent: “…”
Her first thought was also Jiang Yi.
As top streamers who both ascended via BL adaptations together, they initially bound-marketed as CP, ate all the dividends, then immediately mutually unbound.
But in BL adaptation circles, once unbound, CP instantly turns to rivals.
Peng Chen and Jiang Yi were each other’s biggest rivals, no doubt.
With Peng Chen “shitting himself live” on the Screaming red carpet, how could “good brother” Jiang Yi let this opportunity pass?
“…We need to figure out how to suppress the popularity.”
“Can we spend money to remove the hot search?”
“Popularity’s too high now, live broadcast just started, how to remove?”
“Get Shen Qing Yu and his agent to handle it!”
Peng Chen cursed loudly: “He’s the one who caused this, he must suppress the popularity for me, or no more binding to ride my popularity in the future!”
The agent nodded: “Same idea here, Shen Qing Yu’s agent has connections at Yue Na, they caused it, let them clean it up.”
“Sis, handle this for me, quick… I’m afraid if it drags on, the negative impact will be bigger.”
Peng Chen was anxious.
“Got it, no problem, don’t worry, I’ll handle it right away.”
The agent soothed, hung up, and directly called Shen Qing Yu’s team.
……
Back row, by the round table where Chi Ye sat.
“Go on! Why’d you stop?!”
Director Zhang was listening intently when he saw Chi Ye pick up the milk tea his assistant just bought, take a light sip, unhurried, expression indifferent.
“Go on? Go on about what?”
“Continue! You just started, keep going!”
Director Zhang was impatient: “I always thought this line was a bit redundant, didn’t expect… hey? What’s that look?”
He saw Chi Ye spread his hands, heart sinking.
“That’s it, what else? You think I’m a robot? I just thought of it while reading the script.”
Director Zhang: “…”
He eyed Chi Ye suspiciously, clearly seeing the other was deliberately teasing him, but no choice: “Fine… now I think you’re perfect for this Male Lead!”
“Good, that’s right.”
Chi Ye brushed it off casually; for these “work-is-everything” youngsters, this was the way.
As the two tugged back and forth, on the other side, with the last grand finale big stars and Sheng Ning entering, the Screaming Night Award Ceremony was about to begin.
The host took the stage, applause rising throughout the venue.
Chi Ye looked up, clapping along, when his gaze suddenly caught the two fixed cameras originally aimed at him being dismantled by several Kiwifruit staff.
The other cameras all skipped over him too.
Chi Ye: “…”
“Offended someone, huh? They won’t give you shots.”
Director Zhang whispered devilishly in his ear: “Don’t get mad, don’t get mad, getting mad makes you croak early.”
“Why would I get mad?”
Chi Ye withdrew his gaze, indeed no emotional fluctuation.
Specially picking the moment when the gala started and the Empress Dowager was busy to pull this, could only say Sheng Ning and Kiwifruit were overthinking.
He hadn’t planned to ride Screaming Night’s popularity anyway; they didn’t even give him a minor award here! Stingy!
The others though…
Chi Ye looked at the other artists at his table, sure enough seeing dead horse expressions on all their faces.
Seeing Chi Ye look over, they all avoided his gaze, even a second-tier Traffic Flower shifting her chair farther from Chi Ye.
—Bad luck!
Though they didn’t know what happened, they were all thousand-year foxes; a little thought and they knew a big star like Sheng Ning was targeting Chi Ye.
Whoever’s near Chi Ye gets no shots!
“Hahaha!”
The host on stage said something, and the artists below laughed obligingly.
……
Meanwhile.
Kiwifruit Screaming Night live broadcast room.
With the gala starting, fans and audience bullet comments flooded, but many entertainment seekers clicked in to “find fun.”
「Where’s Hu Ye?」
「Is the one who shat on site here?」
「Came specially for Hu Ye, did he get in or not?」
「Wasn’t it said Hu Ye was carried out by security?」
Because of the prior red carpet incident, plus Chi Ye forcing into Screaming Night already on hot search, many clueless audience and gossip entertainment seekers wanted to see if Chi Ye actually entered the inner venue.
Left waiting right waiting, no Chi Ye shots at all, bullet comments full of question marks.
「???」
「He really didn’t get in?」
「Someone on site said Hu Ye got in, there’s video, he should be in.」
「In but no shots?」
「Not kicked out again… that’d be too embarrassing.」
Bullet comments scrolling, the backstage assistant noticing looked to the chief director.
The chief director shook his head at him, signaling ignore it.
Said no shots, then zero shots.
Don’t think of riding Screaming Night’s popularity even a bit!
“Shen Qing Yu’s here, let him in?”
At this point, a staff member came in to ask.
Chief director’s face darkened: “He causes the most trouble… don’t aim 3 camera groups there, let him in, Sheng Ning greeted.”
“Okay.”
The staff nodded and left.
Getting clearance, Shen Qing Yu hunched over, passed the back row, came to the edge of Peng Chen’s table, and sat.
“How’s it going?”
Peng Chen saw no cameras on him, asked urgently.
“Handled.”
Shen Qing Yu made an OK gesture, glanced at Sheng Ning up front: “Bought black hot search for Chi Ye, he was already top ten, easy to push up.”
Peng Chen paused, subconsciously glanced at Jin Xia also up front but far from Sheng Ning: “No issue?”
“No issue, told you Yue Na ditched him, no one can do anything.”
Peng Chen nodded upon hearing.
Chi Ye was indeed a good pick.
Rise was already “shining bright” today, dominating hot searches, but the others were small stars, couldn’t suppress his popularity.
But Chi Ye was different; this guy had scandals galore, bystanders’ hostility toward him could easily push down his black hot searches.
“Alright then, like this, remember to slowly withdraw my black hot search, too fast and people might notice!”
Shen Qing Yu: “…Got it.”
Exchange done, Shen Qing Yu shamelessly sat there, starting to openly ride Peng Chen.
……
Online.
#Peng Chen Shitting# with good brother assist, popularity kept rising, various past black hot searches for Peng Chen popping up one after another.
But shortly after Screaming Night started, lower ones like #Chi Ye Forces into Screaming Night# #Chi Ye Insults Sheng Ning# surged up.
Carrying Sheng Ning’s name, new and old grudges + paid commenters, quickly topped the list, 6M+ popularity directly displacing #Peng Chen Shitting#.
Originally, things were developing “well,” public attention shifting to the “heavier” Chi Ye.
But unexpectedly, the accident happened in a certain live broadcast room.
—Rise trio carried out of Screaming Night, the only absent collapsed persona Jiang Yi urgently went live to ride popularity, dissing Zhang Xianming’s “Xianming Chicken Feet” aside, and upon seeing Peng Chen’s high popularity, exploded major dirt.
He publicly stated in the live: “Peng Chen privately likes pets, before the group disbanded, he stole Chi Ye’s dog! Still raising it at home!”
The already exploding live room full of question marks.
#Peng Chen Steals Dog# rocketed up hot search.
Seeing live Senior Lao had so many tricks, already carried out Zhang Xianming panicked, got it!
Him wearing hollow leopard print edge in winter for traffic scraps?
Chicken neck broken, still not as much rice as Jiang Yi’s one live!
Harm is, as a senior, Jiang Yi’s brain is sharp!
He directly copied on the spot, synced live, opened dissing Jiang Yi’s prior “slander” claims: “I clarify here, my Xianming Chicken Feet are absolutely legit chicken feet, whereas Jiang Yi… no, Jiang Mou! Not only Jiang Mou’s chicken feet are tech-made, his sold wine is fake wine too!”
“I’ve got proof!”
He seemed not riding Peng Chen but actually skinned it hard, pulled chat records: “Peng Chen told me before, he bought fake wine from Jiang Mou’s live room, ended up with diarrhea for three days!”
“Remember? That time you all said Peng Chen lost weight, fans begged for diet… starved? That was shat thin, dehydrated!”
Live audience shocked.
#Peng Chen Diarrhea Thin#
#Peng Chen Shitting Slim Secret#
#Jiang Yi Fake Wine Diet#
#Peng Chen Is Three-Body Person#
Related hot search terms all surged up.
Rise two Chicken Feet God of Wars battling, Weibo full of smoke, watching gossip masses stunned.
「What situation? Rise program not over?!」
「Rise this flop group kills me laughing.」
「Who gets it, Peng Chen actually Three-Body Person, laughed head off.」
「Stealing dog real or fake? Ye Zi really raised a stray dog before, but later dunno where it went!」
「Whoa, Hu Ye fans appear!」
「By comparison, suddenly Hu Ye seems cute, what demons and monsters are this Rise.」
「Rise doesn’t keep idlers! Per capita God of War!」
Major forums gradually flooded, Peng Chen popularity rising not falling.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi seeing good brother “defame” him so, seeing surging traffic, felt hurt.
Turned to keep eating Peng Chen’s “traffic”!
“Peng Chen not bathing for a month is normal, our dorm was all stunk out by him!”
“Zhang Xianming not only sells fake chicken feet, super stingy too, breaks up with girlfriend and even takes her underpants!”
Zhang Xianming attacked Jiang Yi: “Jiang Mou whored C before, left Chi Ye’s name! Before he was taken by uncle, uncle specially came for Chi Ye, that’s how we knew he’s so mad!”
“…!”
Bros one riding Peng Chen, one riding Peng Chen + Chi Ye, you one line me one, fighting non-stop.
Once pushing Screaming Night hot searches out of top twenty!
Even Meng Yixun’s collapse suppressed.
True Brother Meng not only targeted by rivals when alive, even post-death popularity snatched!
Many Meng Yixun fans broke defense on spot: Rise be human! Even dead person’s popularity you snatch?! Are you human?! Beasts!
But the beasts won’t hear these fans.
Zhang Mou and Jiang Mou still “fiercely clashing,” the “three beasts” in Screaming Night venue inevitably implicated.
At this moment, Screaming Night inner venue.
Stage still holding ceremony.
Below stage, big star guests couldn’t help turning heads frequently toward Peng Chen and Chi Ye’s table.
Front row Shang Youshu’s neck twisted like hemp rope, so much gossip didn’t know which to eat first!
“Don’t look at me, got nothing to do with me, I’m really not close to them!”
Chi Ye rarely blushed.
Peng Chen’s side was different, he was nearly driven mad by the weird looks around!
“Fuck him mom! What’s going on?!”
His face ashen white, visibly shaking all over.
But in front of cameras, couldn’t show it, suppressing rage till cameras left, then low voice cursed: “You handle things with your asshole?!”
Shen Qing Yu was also confused now.
He couldn’t figure how just buying some black hot searches, Jiang Yi and Zhang Xianming these dead horses jumping in for fun!
Why so unlucky today!
Meeting Chi Ye always no good!
“No, wait, I…”
“Wait for what?” Peng Chen panicked: “Today I’m stuck with shit piss fart? Not shitting then diarrhea, now even species changed to Three-Body Person! Can you handle it? Binding? After this, bind your dick with me!”
Shen Qing Yu: “…”
He was angry and anxious inside too.
Previously slapped hard by Chi Ye, bystander favor already hit, if no binding Peng Chen popularity now…
He’d soon lose status.
“It’s fine, I have a way!”
He struggled inwardly, pulled phone under table, opened Weibo, chose—join battle!
Yes, Rise brawl adds another big player.
Of course, Shen Qing Yu’s star power way above Zhang Mou Jiang Mou.
Wouldn’t stoop to live exposing, that’s what flop wannabes do when can’t mix in industry.
His method much smarter—found his team’s Chi Ye black hot search, the top one #Chi Ye Insults Sheng Ning#, liked then unliked.
Thought about it, fearing not enough, logged Weibo posted: 【Done, punished no net one day（ laugh cry）】
This operation, #Shen Qing Yu Slip# indeed hit hot search.
But, an awkward thing happened—he didn’t make it up!
Yes, with “battle situation intense,” hot search dominated by other Rise, he couldn’t squeeze into top ten!
Too many talented players, he couldn’t beat!
“Peng Ge, maybe you slip yourself…”
“Slip your horse!”
Shen Qing Yu: “…”
Peng Chen’s nose crooked with anger: “Idiot, buy paid commenters, buy this hot search!”
Shen Qing Yu gritted teeth inwardly, thinking don’t wait till I outshine you.
Thirty years east river, thirty west, don’t bully young flop!
Thinking this, he still WeChatted team quick, soon #Shen Qing Yu Slip# and Chi Ye black hot searches retopped.
But next development again beyond Shen Qing Yu’s expectation.
「No end? Getting rebellious, why so many Chi Ye black hot searches?」
「Slip during Screaming Night? Shen Qing Yu too much.」
「Bit scheming buddy, must hate Hu Ye so much, messing him this hard.」
「Laugh dead, saw four-five black hot searches earlier, now three more.」
「This bro really storm constitution, so flop but always blacked to hot search.」
「Who says Chi Ye flop? This Chi Ye super top streamer!」
「Chi Ye, Rise’s traffic code!」
「#Chi Pan Xia Yu# CP fans can speak? Xia Xia said—Teacher Chi good or not, how wouldn’t I know? No bullying Teacher Chi!!」
Shen Qing Yu never expected, because they always played like this before, plus Chi Ye now “uncommon.”
Though Jian Ni first ep not aired, program not exploded yet, #Chi Pan Xia Yu# CP fans already substantial.
If before Chi Ye only had his pitiful diehard fans, no one liked.
Now Chi Ye had new batch CP fans supporting, no longer soft persimmon anyone could pinch online.
“…Fuck! Knew we had to guard against him exploding!”
Shen Qing Yu cursed, looking at this “mess,” head buzzing.
Votes please, support please!
