When Miao Ke’er was removed as the female lead, she personally posted a Weibo message.
It was basically along the lines of her saying that she had been let go as the female lead and wouldn’t be able to act as Luo Mingshi, like she had promised her fans, and she was very sorry.
There was also an extremely sad little emoji added at the end. It was full of grievances and practically overflowed with sadness!
As a new female star in the entertainment industry who had tens of millions of fans, her pitiful Weibo post attracted a lot of attention.
Her fans comforted her and told her not to be sad, and then asked her what happened and where the new investor came from.
Miao Ke’er didn’t explain. She replied to every message conscientiously, saying that she indeed wasn’t capable enough, and needed to reflect on herself, and so on.
Miao Ke’er’s fans were puzzled and had no idea what was going on. They only felt that their idol seemed to have suffered a huge grievance? It seemed that the only thing she could do was comfort them.
One after another, they couldn’t help but be furious. They immediately wanted to stand up for her, but a “nervous” Miao Ke’er immediately posted another Weibo message —
Miao Ke’er: [I thought I should be fine, but it turns out that I was too confident. The director and investor both said that I don’t fit the role; they must have their reasons. Everyone, don’t ask anymore. Let it go. I’ll definitely work hard next time to not let you down! If you’re really still worried about me, cheer me on. Love you, xoxo~]
Those words were extremely heartwarming and didn’t seem to have any deeper meaning. Miao Ke’er even uploaded two HD Luo Mingshi photos.
The Miao Ke’er in the photos was dressed in a light pink traditional outfit. Her face was made up exquisitely and the highlights at the corners of her eyes gave her the alluring charm of a vixen. Compared with her usual image of an obedient and adorable girl, it made her look a little more wild and cunning, and could be said to be a breakthrough for her.
When this photo was released, not to mention Miao Ke’er’s fans, even some passers-by immediately exploded.
What trash investor and director were these? One after another, the fans took the lead in speaking up for Miao Ke’er.
Coincidentally, a marketing account had a photo of the new female lead for “Luo Mingshi.”
In the photo, the girl was dressed in a shabby and shoddy dress. Her face was smeared with black ash and it was difficult to see her features. Except for her big, bright eyes, she looked just like a beggar!
She couldn’t compare with the glamorous Miao Ke’er at all!
When the marketing account revealed that it was the father of the infamous artiste Lu Boran who had taken control of the entire production, and that his little sister, who had returned from the Qi family, was also involved, all the online users started venting angrily on the production’s homepage.
They cursed the trashy actress covered in dirt, the nouveau riche father and the trashy little sister, the director with no dignity who had given in, and the ugly female lead who was a complete nobody.
It was a huge outcry.
When the production team for “Luo Mingshi” didn’t give a response after a long while, the online users took it for tacit agreement, and they became even fiercer as they raised banners of justice and were ready to practically trample the production team to dust.
Just a second before Xiang Quqi posted, there were countless online users clamoring for the team to come out and apologize.
There were many people who cursed them to death and lit candles for them.
Then, they suddenly saw Xiang Quqi’s Weibo —
