The Popular Movie Emperor and the Has-Been Idol

Zhu Huai was the Visual Center of the idol group SYA. After the group hit trouble and disbanded, he went overnight from the number one idol to a has-been traffic star.

Right when he was on the verge of fading out for good, his fans got into a fight with the fans of Movie Emperor Jiang Sheli.

Zhu Huai was flamed from “about to fade” into “completely faded.” Mocked by the entire internet, he was even dragged out by marketing accounts every now and then for another round of flogging.

After two years of obscurity, Zhu Huai finally became active in front of the cameras. The media came sniffing around at once.

First drama collaboration with the movie emperor—Media: “Here we go! Here we go! He’s coming to pick a fight!”

First variety show collaboration with the movie emperor—Media: “Here we go! Here we go! He’s latching on!”

Zhu Huai likes a CP fanfic about the two of them on Weibo—Media: “Here we go! Here we go! He’s milking the shipping!”

Zhu Huai, who slipped: “…What if I said it was real? Would you believe me?”

Haters/Media wouldn’t let up: “Heh heh, like hell we’d believe you! If you’ve got the guts, get Movie Emperor Jiang to admit it!”

That night, Movie Emperor Jiang responded on Weibo: “We’re not doing CP marketing. We’re married. Thanks. [Marriage Certificate.jpg]”

Haters & melon-eating masses & marketing accounts & both fanbases: ???!!!

The humble CP fans: !!!!!!!
