Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star
chapter-153

At the same time, on Wei Bo, an account nicknamed “Tang Tu’s Assistant Ma” sent a post,

“I’m Tang Tu’s assistant, and my last name is Ma. I’m the one who helped Hanfu Goddess hold onto her luggage in that photo Newsbreaker Zhang Daqiang sent out. I’m here to refute Newsbreaker Zhang Daqiang’s theory.”

“On the third day after CNY, at around nine o’clock, Tang Tu’s driver and I did pick up Liu Man from her hotel with the nanny van. Unlike what some people with malicious intentions were saying, we were sending her to the airport so she could go back to the capital instead of sending her to see Tang Tu. The driver and I were the only ones in the car, and Tang Tu was still filming. He worked until midnight. You can ask for proof from the staff working in “The Sound of the Wind” cast.”

“Tang Tu sent us two over to pick Liu Man up because he’s very kind. He knew that during the CNY break, it was hard to call taxis and was afraid Liu Man would miss her flight. Liu Man was smart and did not want to owe Tang Tu a favor, so she paid me 200 RMB via Paypal according to the market price.”

“Zhang Daqiang was only making up stories based on the few pictures he sneakily took.”

To prove his rebuttal, Ma uploaded a screenshot of his Paypal transaction record, which read: “Liu Man transacted 200 RMB to you.” The data was exactly three days after the CNY.

“Hahahahaha~ Hanfu Goddess’s extreme! She even paid the fee.”

“It’s obvious she doesn’t want to have any connections with Tang Tu, just like how Shen Mozhen said. Tang Tu is the only one showing good feelings for Hanfu Goddess, but Hanfu Goddess doesn’t receive the hint at all.”

“This explanation is full of details with lots of proof. It should be the truth.”

“Did Hanfu Goddess really get defamed, and is she innocent all along?”

…

The testimony of Ma wasn’t even able to get fully digested by the netizens before the popular Yang Huayue posted a testimony pertinent to this matter,

“Liu Man, the Hanfu Goddess, and I have filmed a few scenes together. She is not a professional actress, and she has very few scenes, but her dedication impressed me deeply. I believe Liu Man must have done lots of preparations before shooting. At work, because she is very familiar with her lines and has a thorough understanding of the script when filming, she has never once forgotten her words or laughed awkwardly. She tried not to drag the progress for the rest of us.”

“During the filming of Liu Man and Tang Tu’s piano scene, that is, the video posted by Director Ye Zian, I was in the audience. The scene passed on their first try. The live effect was super good, and it was no different from a real concert. They say that the two of them and the movie’s music director, @Xue Yunfei, were rehearsing this piece late at night the day before.”

“I don’t understand the piano, music, and other over-professional things, but I know about acting. Nowadays, many young actors are very impetuous and want to rely on a movie or TV series to become popular. Maybe there are a few lucky ones who succeeded this way and got popular, but most people come by hard work, taking one step at a time. Liu Man gave me the feeling that she is down-to-earth and diligent. She knows that she is a neophyte and is very humble and low-key. There are many staff in the cast who only knew she is the cyber star, Hanfu Goddess, right before she left.”

“I don’t particularly understand the relationship between her and Tang Tu. At least in my memory, the two of them did not act outside the normal boundary. It seems to be the relationship between an ordinary upperclassman and a sister.”

“I don’t know where the Newsbreaker Zhang Daqiang got his messy information, nor do I know how he slandered Liu Man out of thin air. Liu Man has a good temper, and she doesn’t care about you, Newsbreaker Zhang Daqiang. If I was her, my lawyer might already be drafting a lawyer’s letter to sue you for defamation.”

Yang Huayue’s speech made countless onlookers even more excited. After all, Shen Mozhen was only someone from the classic music circle, and Liu Man was just a cyber star; they were not celebrities.

But Yang Huayue was a well-known film and television actress. She had participated in more than 20 works in the five years since she got admitted to the Capital Film Academy, and after she graduated. Her works can be organized into a long list of TV series and movies. At last year’s Busan Film Festival, she also got nominated for Best Supporting Actress. Although she did not win the award, she still established her position in the entertainment industry.

The Hanfu Goddess and Yang Huayue were not of the same tier at all. How could a cyber star be as important to an actual celebrity? It was hard for everyone to imagine that she supported the Hanfu Goddess. Wasn’t she afraid of being dragged down by the Hanfu Goddess?

“I realize that this drama is getting more and more exciting; even Yang Huayue has stood up to support the Hanfu Goddess.”

“This fully proves how the Hanfu Goddess has lots of social connections.”

“Then how do you explain the fact that Shen Mozhen sided with her? I mean, they are enemies, right?”

“This is so, so hard to understand.”

“We won’t ever understand the artists’ thoughts. (Shrugs)”

…

Because Yang Huayue pinged Xue Yunfei in her Wei Bo post, Xue Yunfei replied to her a few minutes later, “Yes, Liu Man is very dedicated, and her musical knowledge is also worthy of recognition. I appreciate her performance at school today, and I hope to cooperate with her in aspects relating to Guqin in the future.”

“Also, I remember that the night when we rehearsed the piano scene, Liu Man and Tang Tu played the piano over and over again. The two of them had very little verbal communication and practiced with all their attention. I believe they are all people who see music as their top priority. As for the fictitious things on the internet, I don’t believe a word of it.”

Xue Yunfei was a behind-the-scenes composer, and his exposure was not high. There were not many netizens who knew him, but when they saw his testimony, netizens subconsciously searched his name up on Baidu and found that:

He’s such a big character!

He graduated from a famous music university in the US.

And he wrote many songs. When everyone read the names of the songs, they all realized at the same time:

Oh, so he is the author of this song!

In the video, the “Sound of the Wind” played by Hanfu Goddess and Tang Tu was also composed by him!

Even such an outstanding composer supports the Hanfu Goddess! Hanfu Goddess is impressive!

At the same time, the known cyber star slash folk song singer, Coco, also sent a post to support Liu Man:

“The type of people I hate the most is those paparazzi who like to dig on people’s privacy. They even gave themself a seemingly impressive name, like some crappy newsbreaker. To be honest, they are just making lies and earning money whenever others’ days get unfortunate. Beware of falling into the sewer when you take a walk at night!”

Coco’s speech did not mention any names, but everyone knew she was insinuating and scolding Zhang Daqiang.

One by one, the celebrities all posted to support Hanfu Goddess as if they were giving her refuge! The onlookers who liked gossiping got even more excited.

The netizens’ impressions of the Hanfu Goddess were incessantly getting refreshed. How could ordinary cyber stars have such a big face as her to get so many famous people to whitewash her? No, this was not whitewashing; these were testimonies coming from witnesses.
