“Holy shit, Fei Lun Hai is going to collapse too?”
“Damn it, I just became a fan a few days ago, and it's already going to collapse?”
“AAAAAH, NOOOO, such handsome looks, just like that, it's over???”
2008 AD.
Mainland China.
Fei Lun Hai's fans almost vomited blood when they saw the headline.
After all, Fei Lun Hai was one of the best-looking boy bands that had emerged in recent years.
Even their singing and dancing could only be considered rudimentary.
But, they were so handsome.
Especially Wu Zun and Yan Ya Lun.
It was no exaggeration to say that they were a boon for "yan gou" (appearance lovers).
But now…
Collapse?
Could they no longer be appearance-obsessed fans??
Compared to Mainland China.
Over in Taiwan.
Fei Lun Hai's fans were already screaming.
“What the heck, how could Fei Lun Hai collapse?”
“Yeah, what's Tian Mu doing? Are they trying to cause trouble?”
“I know! It must be because the Mainland entertainment industry is dirty, so they want to taint our artists!”
“Yi Ru is so good!”
There were many curses.
Especially the fans of Chen Yi Ru.
They launched a cyber-bullying campaign against Tian Mu.
However, it was all in vain.
The video continued!
…
【Host asks Wu Zun: What would you do if a girl got drunk and slumped on you?】
【Wu Zun replies: I’d push her away】
【Host asks again: What about Yan Ya Lun?】
【Chen Yi Ru jumps in: He’s the one who gets pushed away】
【Debut press conference arranges for members to draw lots and kiss each other】
【Host asks Yan Ya Lun, are you scared silly?】
【Chen Yi Ru: No, he’s been waiting for a long time】
【He also got caught on a date with Zeng Zhi Qiao】
【When he denied it, he said, Just like you all said Wu Zun secretly married and had a child, but it’s not true】
【I haven’t had a girlfriend, and Wu Zun didn’t secretly marry and have a child】
【Wu Zun was still secretly married when they were about to disband】
【A reporter asked where Wu Zun went?】
【Chen Yi Ru said with a smile, He’s back in Wen Lai to take care of his kids】
【Who understands? He secretly hinted for ten years, and no one believed him】
【Lonely, he runs wild in the melon patch】
As the female voice-over ended.
Over in Taiwan.
Fei Lun Hai's fans were dumbfounded.
They were familiar with these words, of course.
But…
Were they actually true??
“This… What does this mean?”
“Yeah, why is it like this? I'm a little confused, I don't quite understand.”
“If it's true, then doesn't it mean… Ya Lun is…”
A terrifying thought entered the minds of every Fei Lun Hai fan.
Of course, it wasn’t unacceptable to accept Yan Ya Lun's sexual orientation.
But the key was, Yan Ya Lun had been flirting with others in a "bromance" way.
If he liked guys and men, wouldn’t it mean that the "bromance" was also fake??
The shift in their thoughts happened in an instant.
The collapse also happened in an instant.
Within minutes.
Yan Ya Lun's fans collapsed.
“No——”
“My Ya Lun!!”
“Why is it like this?!”
Yan Ya Lun's fans were devastated.
Wu Zun's fans were no better off.
Wu Zun's secret marriage was specifically mentioned in the video afterwards.
Thinking back to Wu Zun's various "bromances" he’d cultivated.
And the single persona he’d marketed.
Within minutes, Wu Zun's fans also fell apart.
“Why is it like this?!”
“Wu Zun secretly married and said he was single, that’s too much!”
“Shouldn’t he have spoken up? Why did he do this?!”
“Ha, it must be Chen Yi Ru’s fault, his big mouth just blabbed!”
Taiwanese fans were falling apart.
Mainland fans were also falling apart.
But at this moment, the most devastated were the Fei Lun Hai group themselves.
“Double-Faced Fei Lun Hai” backstage makeup room.
Yan Ya Lun, Wu Zun, and Wang Dong Cheng all turned their heads to look at Chen Yi Ru.
“Why are you all looking at me like that?”
“I’m not wrong, I was just talking nonsense back then.”
Faced with Tian Mu's sudden exposé.
Chen Yi Ru was also quite speechless.
Fei Lun Hai was about to become popular, but now they were suddenly hit with this kind of gossip.
They didn’t know what to do with their new album.
However, this was not his problem.
After all, actions have consequences.
He was good friends with Wu Zun and Wang Dong Cheng.
But he wasn't very close to Yan Ya Lun.
Since they did it, why couldn’t he say something?
Therefore, Chen Yi Ru didn’t feel any guilt at all.
“You’re blaming us, are you?”
Yan Ya Lun was the first to stand up, looking at Chen Yi Ru with a menacing expression.
“I didn’t say that,” Chen Yi Ru also stood up, “But if you want to think that way, I can’t help it.”
“What do you mean?”
Yan Ya Lun took a step towards Chen Yi Ru.
Chen Yi Ru didn’t back down, “What could I possibly mean? Wu Zun didn’t say anything, you’re blaming me because you didn’t hide your own situation well!”
Regarding his sexual orientation.
Privately, Yan Ya Lun never hid it.
In fact, in the early days, he deliberately wore black earrings as a symbol of his sexual orientation.
If it were exposed again, and he wanted to shift the blame, Chen Yi Ru naturally wouldn’t agree.
“But what should we do now?”
Wu Zun spoke up.
Chen Yi Ru calmed down a bit, “I don’t know, we’ll have to wait for the manager.”
The atmosphere became silent for a while.
All the makeup artists in the makeup room didn't dare to speak.
Meanwhile, within the upper management of Fei Lun Hai's company.
An emergency meeting was underway.
Soon, the public relations regarding Fei Lun Hai began.
First, they arranged for the members of Fei Lun Hai to apologize.
Especially Wu Zun and Yan Ya Lun.
They would publicly apologize to their fans and acknowledge their relationships and sexual orientations, seeking forgiveness from the general public.
Second, they announced the company's arrangements for Fei Lun Hai's future career.
That was, apart from the problematic artists, the rest of the members would suspend all promotional activities.
Their artists would also undergo training.
They would work to raise their moral standards, not to deceive audiences and fans.
Finally, “Double-Faced Fei Lun Hai” would be taken down from all platforms, with a release date to be announced later!
With the release of these three emergency notices.
This popular idol boy band went directly from top-tier to being shelved by their company.
The news reached Mainland China.
Those fans who had previously liked the brotherhood between members of Fei Lun Hai were completely devastated.
“Holy crap, Fei Lun Hai has become like this, does the entertainment industry consist entirely of fake friendships?”
“Yeah, how could this happen? Married couples get divorced, singers we like lip-sync, the groups we like are fake brothers, is everything fake?”
“If even Fei Lun Hai's friendship isn’t real, then it’s true, the so-called world of fame and fortune, it’s all an act.”
“Life is a play, it’s all just acting!!!”
“Are there any real friendships in the entertainment industry??”
