Top Dupe CH 018 The Correct Way To Rub Traffic

"Since we're not dating, then it's just a relationship between colleagues. Is there any problem with walking back to the dormitory together?" Gu Xiaowei asked back.

Luo Yu smiled helplessly, "I know you are open-minded, but my reputation is not very good. Copying the top star's image, rubbing against the top star's traffic, and claiming to be the top star's dupe. If you walk with me, then…”

"Senior Brother, do you mind being accused of rubbing against my traffic?" Gu Xiaowei asked.

"I've been criticized for so many years that my skin is thicker than a pig's skin even if it's not as thick as a city wall. But if your agent finds out, you will be scolded."

"He doesn't care about these things." Gu Xiaowei replied.

Luo Yu laughed, "I think… it's not that your agent doesn't care about this, it's that he can't control you."

When Luo Yu was filming with Gu Xiaowei in his previous life, he knew that this person actually had his own way of doing things and was not to be restrained.

"Senior Brother, do you still mind the dirty water on the Internet?" Gu Xiaowei asked again.

His voice was clear and crisp, blending with the night wind like a glass of rippling wine.

"I don't mind. Someone told me that if you open your horizons, dirty water can also become a wedding dress."

A prop car carrying props for a night scene passed behind Luo Yu, and the bright car lights outlined his profile.

His eyes were tenacious, like the star at the end of the dim light, a sign of resistance that was unwilling to surrender, a small but dazzling fire.

Gu Xiaowei looked at him as if he was captured.

Until that car passed by, all the ups and downs in the heart seemed to have calmed down.

Under the backlight, no one could clearly see Gu Xiaowei's smile.

"Senior Brother, let me teach you the correct way to rub against a top star's traffic."

After Gu Xiaowei finished speaking, Luo Yu looked over with confusion.

"Huh? What..."

The next second, Gu Xiaowei's hand hooked the collar of Luo Yu's T-shirt, causing him to come closer to him, as if to retaliate against Bai Ying for dragging Yan Ye into the situation from a watchful observer. Gu Xiaowei tilted his face, and that angle accurately replicated the scene of Bai Ying moving closer to Yan Ye. Luo Yu was almost frightened out of his wits, but Gu Xiaowei's other hand slipped a mint into his lips.

The index finger then covered the seam of Luo Yu's lips, as if sealing some secret and unspeakable feelings.

Gu Xiaowei let him go, and Luo Yu staggered back two steps.

"You… what are you doing!"

He looked around, and it was obvious that someone had snapped the scene just now.

"No matter how careful you are, you will be accused of rubbing against traffic, so just do it openly." Gu Xiaowei said.

His gaze was deep, as if the deep night sky wanted to take back the starlight that had rebelliously fallen to the world.

Luo Yu opened his mouth. He wanted to explain to Gu Xiaowei the madness of the anti-fans in detail, and wanted him, who had been on the path of a professional actor since his debut, to understand the horror of the overwhelming public opinion of gossipmongers.

Sometimes a person didn’t need to do anything wrong. As long as someone didn’t like you, they could formulate their own rules with the power of numbers, and then become public order in the online world. Anyone who did not comply with these rules would be eliminated.

"You..." Luo Yu raised his hand, but didn't know how to formulate his words, "You are... you have been suppressed for a long time, and have entered your rebellious phase?"

Gu Xiaowei put his hand in his pocket and smiled softly, "I just want to know how much traffic I have."

After saying that, it was as if everything had never happened, and Gu Xiaowei walked into the night.

A few seconds later, Luo Yu lowered his head and smiled helplessly.

He suddenly understood, Gu Xiaowei was declaring war on him just now.

Because of the impromptu script changes made by the director and screenwriter during the daytime scene, Luo Yu’s action of blowing cigarette smoke was unexpected by Gu Xiaowei and he almost slipped up.

This future film king had a desire to win that could not be underestimated.

Luo Yu smiled and said loudly: "Then... we will battle another day."

Sure enough, within ten minutes, someone posted the photo online, and several marketing accounts shared it in order to gain traffic.

Luo Yu returned to the dormitory, took a shower, and sat on the bedside, intending to review his final scene of the script. Fang Qin shouted to him in a hoarse voice: "Brother Luo! You and Gu… Gu… Gu Xiaowei are on the hot search!"

Luo Yu was startled for a moment. Although he expected that it might be a hot search, he thought it would take at least late at night, but he didn't expect that it would already reach the hot search before midnight?

"Oh my God... it was around ten o'clock when the photo was posted, and it is the third most popular search before midnight... It seems that it will reach the top in a while, huh?" Fang Qin took a deep breath, "It is said that He Mu is the king of the hot search, but that depends on the joint efforts of marketing accounts and his fans. But look at Gu Xiaowei, this is just sheer discussion by netizens!"

Luo Yu thought of Gu Xiaowei's words, "I just want to know how much traffic I have."

"Brother Luo, aren't you going to look?" Fang Qin asked curiously.

Luo Yu shook his head and said with a smile: “No thanks. With Gu Xiaowei's traffic, I am destined to be cut to death."

"Then... this photo, at first glance I thought Gu Xiaowei was going to kiss you! Even the hot search topic is 'Gu Xiaowei has an intimate meeting with someone late at night'."

"Fortunately, the title is not very scandalous, even though it contains the word 'intimate'."

"Then what were you two doing?" Fang Qin didn't want to gossip, but he saw someone with a dirty mouth, criticizing Luo Yu, saying that Luo Yu was shamelessly rubbing against Gu Xiaowei's traffic, as expected of a serial traffic moocher.

Fang Qin was anxious and wanted to protect Luo Yu, but one mouth could not withstand the malicious intentions of so many people.

"Actually, it's nothing. We met in the supermarket and walked back together. My throat felt uncomfortable on the way... Gu Xiaowei just fed me a mint." Luo Yu replied.

“Fed you a mint? Did he personally feed it?" Fang Qin looked in disbelief.

"Yeah. Many times there is no complicated story behind a photo, only a direct and simple reason."

Luo Yu then thought that He Mu's fans would rush to attack him when they saw it, saying that he wasn't satisfied in just rubbing against He Mu's traffic now he dared to rub against Gu Xiaowei's traffic.

In the past, when he faced such public attacks, he wished that he had never entered the entertainment industry. Looking back now, the glass heart had already grown into a tempered one, and Luo Yu didn't feel anything at all.

Anyway, no matter how much He Mu's fans jump around, everyone knew that the role of Bai Ying belonged to him, Luo Yu, and except for He Mu's fans, passers-by all knew that it was He Mu's inferior acting skills that made him lose this role to Luo Yu.

So... Luo Yu, who had no money for marketing, would like to thank He Mu's fans for giving him this wave of attention.

Fang Qin, on the other hand, was so angry. He sucked on one of the mints Luo Yu brought him while logging into his sub account and left comments to explain to everyone who scolded Luo Yu for rubbing against Gu Xiaowei's traffic, saying that Gu Xiaowei was just feeding Luo Yu a throat mint.

But He Mu's fans, who lost momentum last time, could not let go of this opportunity to win back a victory. They actually besieged Fang Qin, saying that he was Luo Yu's sub account.

And He Mu, who was lying on the bed with a facial mask on, was also shocked by this hot search.

He zoomed in the photo posted by the marketing account, and clearly saw Gu Xiaowei's finger on Luo Yu's lips. This scene made people wonder if the two of them were filming an idol drama! But whether it was the naturalness of the gesture or the dim lighting, it reminded He Mu that this was a snapshot! This was real!

He wanted to get close to Gu Xiaowei but couldn't get close to him. Gu Xiaowei, who wouldn't even let him call him "Senior Brother", actually touched Luo Yu's lips!

He Mu was so sour at that moment that it could corrode the surrounding air.

Even though his fans were tearing Luo Yu apart, he just couldn't swallow his hatred, so he called his agent directly and wanted to buy a water army to drown Luo Yu to death.

But this time, his agent was much more sensible.

"He Mu, listen to my advice, Luo Yu is in the crew of "Counterattack". In the photo with Gu Xiaowei, it has no relation to a detriment in moral character or principle. What if Gu Xiaowei explained that he saw something on Luo Yu's mouth and was just helping him wipe it off, and this matter will be over with just like that. On the contrary, Director Lin and his team are not stupid. They must know that it is you who is slandering Luo Yu, which is equivalent to causing trouble for his drama. Do you think Director Lin will give you another chance in the future?"

He Mu choked and clenched his fists unwillingly.

"It's just a small role, isn't it?"

"Small role? What I heard is that Hua Xingyun revised Luo Yu's lines on the spot, and Director Lin personally discussed the script with him. At least this means that the crew attaches great importance to this small role. Don't forget what Chairman Ou said, that we must not make trouble. If this matter is not handled well and Lin Yue thinks that Dijun Media is targeting him, and it becomes a competition between Honghe Film and Television and Dijun Media, we will be the first to be cannon fodder."

Hearing what his agent said, He Mu could only suppress his thoughts about messing with Luo Yu, and watched helplessly as the photo of him and Gu Xiaowei became more and more popular on the hot search list, ranking first in the late-night hot search list.

At this moment, Gu Xiaowei was just about to go to bed when his agent called.

"Gu Xiaowei, you are quite capable, giving me a hot search gift package while filming?" Meng Yu did not blame Gu Xiaowei like other agents. In his opinion, there was no public opinion trend that couldn't be reversed.

"It only just reached the hot search? It seems that my traffic is average." Gu Xiaowei said lightly.

"Are you being sarcastic? Tell me, do you want to explain that you two are not close? Or do you want to take down the hot search?"

"Why? I just fed my Senior Brother a candy. Is it because I can't be seen, or am I not allowed to be close to my friends?" Gu Xiaowei asked back.

Meng Yu understood what the other meant.

Gu Xiaowei did not let people enter his personal space easily, but once this person got his recognition and respect, he would spare no effort to protect them.

For example, Director Lin Yue, Screenwriter Hua Xingyun, and a few professional acting stars, and then there was Luo Yu.

Meng Yu believed in Gu Xiaowei's judgment in making friends. He couldn't say much about Luo Yu's future, but his character was definitely not bad.

A few minutes later, Gu Xiaowei's personal account directly forwarded a certain marketing account's Weibo account that posted the photo, with the text: Senior Brother, thank you for working hard with me, have a mint to soothe your throat.

Fans who were still speculating about Gu Xiaowei's relationship with Luo Yu before suddenly understood.

As long as it was someone Gu Xiaowei thanked and defended, fans would certainly not let them be bullied!
