Heads Up: The "Hutoya Kunihito" mentioned in this chapter is actually the actor playing Haidō Hiro, and the author is using his real name to troll him. Just letting you know.
————
Because today was the Dragon Boat Festival,
The city was exceptionally lively,
And summer break was just around the corner,
武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu, after being squeezed in the crowd a few times,
Regretted coming out to play today.
However, upon remembering that Lin Feng was right beside them,
The two girls, with a bit of hypocrisy, used the excuse of the crowd being too large and easy to get separated,
Tightly grasped Lin Feng's hands, squeezing together with him, regardless of the heat, refusing to separate.
Lin Feng, of course, was enjoying himself,
The weather was already close to summer, and the two girls were wearing such cool clothes,
The feeling, words cannot describe~
At the same time, the two girls were secretly competing with each other,
For example, just now,
武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu both bought a large ice cream that had been very popular recently,
The former, without any regard for her image, devoured it with a messy bite, resulting in cream all over her face, looking quite ugly, but actually giving off a kind of high-level green tea vibe.
And the latter, maintaining a gentle ladylike image, ate silently, but occasionally scooped out a spoonful and offered it to Lin Feng,
Although shy, it was indeed more proactive than before.
However, if Lin Feng were to say,
No matter which way, it was not as good as a direct point,
If it weren't for the fact that he was currently holding one girl's hand with each of his own, playing with those two soft hands with joy,
He would have definitely bought an ice cream too, and accidentally smeared it on their faces.
But, things were peaceful and harmonious like this, which wasn't bad either.
The three of them wandered around aimlessly,
After walking for a while, they arrived at the city center,
It seemed there was a comic exhibition going on there,
Surrounded by a crowd that was packed like sardines.
They originally planned to leave this area,
But a conversation between a mother and son caught their attention.
Boy: "Mom! I want to go to the comic exhibition and see Kamen Rider Amazon! Someone's wearing the suit there today!"
Mother: "If you can withstand a serving of bamboo shoots stir-fried with pork, then I'll let you go."
Boy: "Then I'll definitely work hard to eat eggs!"
Mother: "Oh, finally you know the benefits of eating more eggs?"
Boy: "Because eating eggs can turn you into Kamen Rider Amazon! Then I can defeat you, Mom, who's an Amazon!"
Mother: "......Amazon, huh? I'm gonna get you now!!!"
Boy: "Aaaaaah, I was wrong!"
The three watched the two figures running away,
Unconsciously, a doting smile appeared on their faces.
"Boss, we're really going viral now, even little kids know Amazons."
武田玲奈's face was full of 感慨,
Just a week ago, she felt like she had no chance of gaining a foothold in the entertainment industry,
But now she was enjoying it, and it was even influencing the people she met in real life.
Higashi-A Asia Yu also exclaimed with 感叹:
"So, Mr. Lin Feng will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of the Chinese film industry."
Without directly answering the two girls,
Lin Feng subconsciously started walking towards the comic exhibition.
And when he saw multiple cosplayers dressed as characters from the show like Takayama Jin and Mizusawa Yū,
He couldn't help but smile.
The feeling of being recognized by people in real life,
Was completely different from reading those positive reviews online,
Positive reviews were indeed real,
But it wasn't as heartwarming as seeing a large group of people cosplaying it in person.
At this time,
The three came to another noisy place,
Because Lin Feng was tall,
So he could see more clearly.
In the area surrounded by people,
There was a boy cosplaying Takayama Jin, with a table set up,
On the table was a glass cup and a whole box of sterile edible eggs.
He waved his hand grandly and shouted loudly:
"My brothers and sisters! Today, I, Takayama Jin, will perform a raw egg swallowing act for you all! If you think it's good, then tell me where Mizusawa Yū is, I want to have a showdown with that guy!"
After he finished speaking, he was about to start the performance,
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the crowd,
"Jin-shu! You forgot your egg beater!"
Everyone looked over,
It was a rudimentary Amazon Driver made with simple materials,
It was the most realistic one Lin Feng had seen so far.
And this action,
Pushed the atmosphere of this area to its peak!
Because in the show, Takayama Jin's signature move was to beat the eggs with the Driver and then swallow them raw,
Adding this iconic egg beater prop,
Immediately upgraded the quality of the cosplay.
At the same time,
After seeing this scene,
A long-awaited idea popped into Lin Feng's mind.
Merchandise,
Simply put, buy toys!
The most profitable part of tokusatsu wasn't the number of viewers after the series aired,
But all kinds of transformation props!
How could he have forgotten this key point?
He had to go back and talk to Maruyama Hiroshi about this, put it on the agenda!
Following that,
The group wandered around the comic exhibition for a few more rounds,
After finding nothing more interesting,
They turned around and prepared to leave.
Before leaving,
Lin Feng went to the restroom,
Leaving 武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu to rest on a park bench,
And during this time,
While they were scrolling through Weibo on their phones,
They discovered a piece of news that made their faces change drastically,
Currently, the number one trending topic on Weibo was,
【A Young Person's Mind and Body Will Be Ruined! The Cause of It All, Is It This Tokusatsu Show That's Gone Viral?!】
This title, full of suggestive tendencies, instantly caught their attention,
After a brief moment of dumbfoundedness,
They exchanged glances and clicked on the title.
First, they looked at the name of the poster,
It was a big Weibo blogger with a million followers named "Hutoya Kunihito."
His usual posts were about analyzing the plots, costumes, props, and background settings of various TV series.
He was commenting on the currently hottest show "Amazons," so in terms of qualifications, there was nothing wrong with it,
But the problem was,
Was his content fair?
武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu, with worry in their hearts, read the entire article,
The answer was,
Indeed, it was worrisome.
Because,
The article contained many infuriating, rhythmic sentences that led the readers,
For example, it rashly labelled Mizusawa Yū in "Amazons" as a saint,
Labelled Takayama Jin's actions of protecting humans and attacking unawakened Amazons as extreme antisocial behavior,
Labelled the bloody scenes that appeared in every episode of the show as something that would greatly impact the mental and physical growth of young people,
And in the article, he posted feedback he received from many parents, demanding a harsh criticism of the show, even calling on official authorities to intervene and take "Amazons" off the air.
And after reading all of this,
The comments section was even more infuriating,
Because many netizens who didn't know where they came from,
While attacking the show "Amazons,"
Also started attacking the actors in the crew, the behind-the-scenes company, Tōnichi Yō,
Lin Feng's personal information was directly posted in the comment section, and Takagi Mio was also not spared.
This massive scale and array,
For the first time, made 武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu feel scared.
They had only heard of cyberbullying before,
But they never thought,
That one day they would experience this firsthand.
The problem was,
Currently, these comments were only fermenting in the comment section of this post,
If they spread further,
If more people saw this post and how much heat it was generating,
Then it wouldn't be long,
"Amazons" would plummet from its peak,
From the top of the mountain, straight down to the valley.
Of course,
They weren't blind to the supportive comments either,
For example, also on Weibo, a blogger named "Neyin TV,"
She posted an analysis of the entire "Amazons" series,
And whether or not it actually had those negative effects.
There were also many, many supporters,
But they were struggling to hold on,
Because under every supportive comment, there would be a uniform sea of water army attacking indiscriminately.
This kind of situation,
Would also make many bystanders be led by the nose,
Ultimately, from a passerby who didn't know anything, turn into a malicious black commenter.
This kind of scene, made 武田玲奈 and Higashi-A Asia Yu start to worry.
If it continued to develop,
The official film hall in the capital, if they really ordered a ban,
What would they do?
Just then,
A call suddenly came through to 武田玲奈's phone,
The name displayed was,
Tsurushima Noa.
