Chapter 144: Chapter 144 I am a Kind and Principled Person

This was Han Fei’s most shining moment in the past twenty-five years, he stood at the center of the stage, under the spotlight, amidst an ocean of negative reviews.

Only the most unfortunate could possess a Black Box, Han Fei’s life had not been all smooth sailing, various encounters honed his heart like a diamond. He did not have the dazzling presence of other stars, but he had his own unique temperament.

The malicious comments on the venue’s large screen were being dispersed by more and more kind comments, simple and gentle words, ordinary and warm expressions, trickles of goodwill converged into a river, submerging the screen-ful of negativity.

Many bystanders actually did not know what was happening, and at first, they did not intend to send barrage comments.

It wasn’t until a surge of negative reviews came in, obscuring even the live broadcast screen, that they began to search curiously for this person, Han Fei.

The newly established encyclopedia tore Han Fei down, while several freshly released headline articles also accused him of lacking professional ethics.

But beyond these, what everyone found was more about legal news and information released by the police.

The person who risked life and death to assist the police in solving a case was Han Fei, the one who spoke for the victims and was thanked in the street by the victims’ families was still Han Fei.

Those who truly interacted with Han Fei in life all praised his goodness, whereas it was people far away on the internet who stood on moral high ground to criticize him arbitrarily.

More and more netizens began to join in the fray, and as the heat in the live broadcast room soared once again, the rate of refreshing malicious comments could no longer keep up with the normal ones.

A little over a minute later, the live broadcast room briefly stuttered, and then all the malicious comments disappeared in an instant.

They vanished as suddenly as they had appeared.

"I don’t think I have done anything to hurt others, but some people just want to ruin me," Han Fei said.

The sudden influx of negative comments on the big screen was deliberately timed by someone wanting to trap Han Fei, knowing in advance the time he would appear on stage. And this person must be very familiar with Han Fei, knowing that he suffered from severe social anxiety, knowing that he felt chest tightness, headaches, and discomfort in crowded places, hence they came up with such a method.

Leaving him alone on stage at the mercy of countless malicious attacks, awakening the terrible memories buried deep in his mind, letting tens of thousands in the live broadcast watch his disgrace.

If such a problem occurred during his first time on stage, it would leave an even deeper shadow in Han Fei’s heart.

"The only people who understand me so well should be the company I used to work for, Urban Secret Love is their latest production," Han Fei thought.

When the live barrage behind Han Fei was taken over by comments filled with goodwill and encouragement, the backstage switched the projection and began playing the promotional video for "Twin Flowers".

Those who questioned Han Fei’s acting skills, upon seeing the character played by Han Fei in the promotional video, honestly shut their mouths. If they continued to nitpick at his acting, onlookers would probably think the commentators were blind.

The tension and excitement of the plot, the quick pace of scene changes, the decade-long battle of wits and survival, it all concluded with Meng Changxi’s final monologue.

The two-minute promotional video astonished everyone!

After the video finished playing, the promotional poster for "Twin Flowers" appeared on the big curtain.

Meng Changxi, portrayed by Han Fei, and Meng Chang’an stood back to back amidst the sunlight and shadow. The elegantly dressed Meng Chang’an bathed in the sunlight with a graceful and composed smile on his face, yet his eyes were filled with sickness and madness; in contrast, the terrifying-looking Meng Changxi strained to stand upright in the shadows, his body scarred and fierce. But his eyes held resilience and hope.

The enormous poster was stunning, and at the center of the stage, Han Fei happened to be standing right between the light and darkness.

Three individuals associated with the case were divided by light and shadow, standing together in this unique way.

The atmosphere in the live streaming room reached a climax. Many netizens captured this scene with screenshots. The combination of reality and projection was just right—this was simply art.

The negative comments hadn’t defeated Han Fei, but instead, everyone saw his tenderness, confirming that this actor was truly different from other stars.

Numerous netizens, recalling Han Fei’s recent experiences and his unyielding words, began to change sides and support him.

It was at this moment that the host, Shanshan, finally made her belated entrance.

She took the microphone from Han Fei’s hand, ready to move on to the next segment, when she suddenly caught sight of Han Fei’s eyes—an Evil Ghost seemed to dwell within their icy gaze. Just one glance made her scalp tingle, nearly causing her to fumble the microphone in her hand.

"I don’t have much stage experience. You left me alone on stage, and I was a bit nervous," Han Fei patted her shoulder and walked backstage.

As soon as he appeared, Director Jiang and Sister Long immediately rushed over.

"Han Fei! Are you okay?" Director Jiang gripped Han Fei’s arm, eyes full of concern. When the screen had filled with insults earlier, Director Jiang felt nearly suffocated, not to mention Han Fei, who had been left alone in the center of the stage.

"What could be wrong with me? My first time on stage felt quite good, it’s just that the stage was a bit too small." Han Fei seemed even more relaxed than before he had stepped on stage, a relaxation that came from deep within, as if he had broken free from some kind of restraint.

"Jiang Yi said you had social anxiety; I even had people ready to rush up to save the day," Sister Long admitted, still quite shaken, considering this was a live unveiling.

"I did use to suffer from severe social anxiety. It was difficult even to talk to people, but now, I’ve pretty much been cured," Han Fei knew that Director Jiang and Sister Long were worried about him, and he appreciated their concern.

"You were definitely set up this time; someone is targeting you," Sister Long became more impressed with Han Fei after seeing his performance and gently advised him, "Your main problem now is that you don’t have an agency backing you. It’s easy for others to scheme against you. They can just make up some things to slander you or use all kinds of filthy methods to ruin your reputation. Currently, you don’t even have a way to make your voice heard."

Sister Long spoke realistically, "Even if your work is excellent, they have many ways to mess with you. In this circle, acting isn’t the measure of how far an actor can go; capital is the biggest dream machine."

"I understand, but for now, I’m not interested in joining an agency," Han Fei knew that after signing a contract, he often wouldn’t be able to manage his own time, and to him, playing games was the most important thing.

"Han Fei, this circle can be clean, and it can be quite messy. After all, what profession doesn’t have those who like to play dirty? If you don’t join an agency, you must be very careful. Of course, Longyou Culture will also support you," Sister Long still took good care of Han Fei. She hoped to continue collaborating with him in the future.

"Don’t worry, I have my own plans." Han Fei wore a faint smile, and no one knew what he was really thinking, "I’ve always been a very kind person, but if one day they push me to be unkind, the unfortunate ones will be themselves."

Han Fei was a person of principles; he wouldn’t lightly draw players into Deep World, but having principles didn’t mean he wouldn’t feel anger.

At this moment, deep in his heart, he was muttering another sentence to himself.

"If they are so fond of playing dirty, I will find a way to send them to a world full of bloodstains, the stench of corpses, and severed limbs, to let them witness what true filth and despair are."
