Chapter 12 - CHAPTER. 12

The little fox was well-behaved and sensible. It was able to cooperate with Gu Mian's work, so the work ended quickly on the first day.

When Gu Mian returned, the director told her that the makeup photos had already been posted on the official blog and asked her to go back and see the response.

The heavy workload on the first day made Gu Mian tired. She returned to the place where she was staying and went to bed after taking a shower. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow and forgot what the director said. The next day, she was awakened by Xiao Zhu's voice abruptly in her sleep.

Gu Mian blinked blankly. It took three or four seconds for her to wake up before she slowly got up and opened the door for Xiao Zhu.

As soon as she opened the door, Xiao Zhu rushed in like a whirlwind and said in a loud and flustered voice, "Mian Mian, Weibo is full of trouble now!"

Gu Mian rubbed her eyes and was at a loss, "What's the matter?"

"Wow, didn't you publish your makeup photos on the official blog yesterday? Then Wen Xia gave out an interview that night. A reporter asked her what she thought of the sudden change of roles, whether she was robbed of the role. She shook her head and said she wasn't as good as you and you are more suitable for this role than her. But that response made her fans very dissatisfied, thinking that she must have been bullied by you and didn't even dare to tell the truth. In any case, she is already a popular actress now and you are just a little newcomer! How could she be inferior to you? So now her fans are fighting for her. Look at your Weibo!"

Gu Mian didn't have her phone, so Xiao Zhu simply handed her phone to her.

And the current interface of Xiao Zhu's phone was just the message under the original owner's latest page of Weibo.

"Haha, after grabbing someone else's role, do you still have a face? #Bully Gu Mian#"

"We can't take this role back to Xia Xia again, but you can rest assured that as Xia Xia's strongest backing, we would diss you with our real name every day!"

"Our Goddess Xia Xia has strength and beauty, what do you rely on to be in the top position? #Bully Gu Mian#"

"What else can she rely on? Isn't it just some dirty, innocent means? It's a pity that our Xia Xia just works hard. #Bully Gu Mian#"

"Till the day you are in the entertainment industry I will scold you everyday!"

"Is it cool to grab someone else's role? I hope that every one of your roles will be grabbed."

Just by looking at the comments of netizens, one could see the maliciousness.

Xiao Zhu felt uncomfortable looking at such comments.

Although she knew that Gu Mian had indeed snatched the female lead's role, the rules in the circle were like that. Whoever had a strong background was the boss.

And as an assistant, no matter what the facts were, she must be on Gu Mian's side. Her salary was paid to her by Gu Mian. After being with her for the past two days, she felt that Gu Mian was kind and left a good impression on her.

So when Gu Mian was scolded so fiercely online, Xiao Zhu felt very uncomfortable.

After Gu Mian glanced roughly at the message, she turned her head and asked Xiao Zhu on the side, "Have I been on a hot search?"

Xiao Zhu nodded and shook her head hurriedly, "You went on at the beginning, but Brother Nan later contacted people and removed the Hot Search immediately."

"Oh."

After reading the comments, Gu Mian returned the phone to Xiao Zhu and then went to the toilet to brush her teeth and wash her face.

Xiao Zhu was stunned, "Oh? That's it?"

Wasn't Gu Mian's reaction too calm? Or was she too fussing about it herself? And in fact, it wasn't big news?

Gu Mian took the time to squeeze toothpaste and replied, "Xiao Zhu, bring me breakfast. Steamed soy milk is good, thank you."

Xiao Zhu: "…Okay."

Gu Mian finished her breakfast and arrived at the shooting scene. Many people seemed to know about it.

Robbing someone's role was indeed not very authentic. After all, it was a film directed by Zhang Cheng. It had a good reputation. It was expected that once the film got released, it would make good money at the box office. It was no wonder that Wen Xia, who was robbed of the role, couldn't sit still anymore. After all, her "cake" was given to a little white flower (newbie).

Wen Xia's method was very successful.

At least now, Gu Mian's popularity had fallen to the extreme because of the role-robbing storm and she had also been insulted by Wen Xia's fans.

Many people criticized her online for a while.

Gu Mian's mentality had always been very stable. The scene of being attacked by netizens was already in her expectation. She didn't even think about being popular, so why would she care how the fans thought about her?

She didn't care about it, but the director and the deputy director were afraid that her emotions would be affected by that incident and even affect the progress of the subsequent shooting, so they came forward to comfort her.

The director said warmly, "Xiao Gu, this kind of thing happens in the entertainment industry. You must not take it to heart."

The assistant director comforted, "That's right, the most important thing for you now is to shoot this series well and speak with strength!"
