After Being Preached by my Senior Martial Brother

At 2 PM, a marketing blogger suddenly leaked information on Weibo.

@GossipLittleGoose: qzy, July, marriage reality show, confirmed.

The marketing blogger was a big V with 300,000 followers. Comments quickly fermented:

“Does Qi Zhuoyu still need to be abbreviated?”

“I decoded it, but tell me what Qi Zhuoyu has to do with a marriage reality show?”

“Such fake news. The July marriage reality show decodes to ‘The One At My Home’, the cast was decided half a year ago. At least make up more believable stories.”

“LOL. Do you know what a parachuted resource star is?”

Up to this point, the comments were still normal.

Until some passersby accidentally stumbled in, the tone became strange.

“Just passing by, I’ve only heard that unknown celebrities don’t need abbreviations. Isn’t Qi Zhuoyu quite famous?”

He was indeed famous, top star in one year, god-like in two years, and a household name in three years.

Even her great-grandmother, who never paid attention to the entertainment circle, had watched movies starring Qi Zhuoyu.

A netizen replied: “Afraid of appearing on his Weibo square.”

The passerby suddenly realized: “Oh, oh. You’re afraid of being scolded by his fans, right!”

After all, he was a top star and best actor. One could imagine how terrifying his fans could be.

Unexpectedly, the netizen replied again: “LOL. Does Qi Zhuoyu even have fans? In the entertainment industry, he only has haters and his dad, which is me, just so you know.”

Passerby: “?”

The netizen lit a cigarette and continued to reply: “We’re afraid of being scolded by the unfilial son himself.”

Passerby: “??”

The netizen said profoundly: “I can see you’re really just passing by. Can someone share a compilation of my son bullying the entertainment industry over the years?”

As soon as this reply came out.

Qi Zhuoyu’s anti-fans sprang into action, and someone immediately offered a pre-edited video.

In just ten minutes, it wrote the bitter and tearful history of how the entertainment industry had been ruled by the big devil over these years.

Actually, when Qi Zhuoyu first debuted, Li Chaofeng – yes, Li Chaofeng, as a chosen working dog, when the boss descended to the mortal entertainment industry, naturally switched jobs to become the manager as the second-in-command of the demon race!

A working dog must work hard in different places across the Three Realms!

After Li Chaofeng collected the most popular celebrity personas in the entertainment industry, he created an image for him: righteous and honest, gentle and fan-pleasing, ignorant of the internet and popular slang, a brother who descended to save the entertainment industry, a steady senior official who carried a thermos cup every day to show off.

And his cousin really did descend from above.

But what Li Chaofeng never expected was.

Qi Zhuoyu did indeed descend to the entertainment industry.

But not to save it, rather to bully it.

His first movie featured three-time best actress and best actor award winners as supporting roles, a breakout first-tier popular young female star as a minor character, veteran artists joining the cast, an Oscar-winning best screenwriter personally crafting the script, and an internationally renowned director’s crowning work. It could be said that all the most powerful lineup imaginable was stacked to the max, then Qi Zhuoyu parachuted in to become the male lead of the film, thus beginning the three-year life of the big devil as an invincible resource star in the entertainment industry.

Hearing this, Qi Zhuoyu was very satisfied.

After all, as an elementary school chicken who wanted to be strong across the Three Realms, he had no other requirements except to be first in everything.

But Jingyu, who was plotting with Li Chaofeng at the time, frowned. “Isn’t this too exaggerated?”

“No!” Li Chaofeng was smug and said, “You don’t understand. Those mortals’ novels are all written like this, where the male lead casually acts in some ancient style gay film and can win an Oscar for Best Actor. Fans just love this kind of exaggerated heartthrob persona!”

Jingyu suddenly understood and said gently, “You know best.”

Li Chaofeng said happily. “Of course!”

Being a lackey.

He was the cousin’s professional lackey after all!

At first, everything went according to Li Chaofeng’s plan.

His cousin, with his truly hard-not-to-become-famous perfect looks, instantly shot to fame, dropping a time bomb into the stagnant entertainment industry.

For a time, phrases like “The greatest face of the 21st century”, “A handsome man seen once in 5000 years!”, “He’s here, the Purple Star of 2023 is really here!” seemed to have made their home on the hot search list, never coming down.

Unfortunately, the beautiful vision of being righteous, gentle, and fan-pleasing came to an abrupt end backstage at the 2023 Spring Festival Gala.

Li Chaofeng swore, he basically followed Qi Zhuoyu 24 hours a day, brainwashing him daily with things like “killing is illegal in today’s society”, “don’t get angry, others get angry, I won’t get angry, anger leads to illness with no one to replace”, “cousin, think about it, you still need to let the mortal world spread the love story between you and your wife, so just endure and control your temper”. During the Spring Festival Gala, he only left for a mere ten minutes to take care of a personal physiological issue.

But unexpectedly.

In just those ten minutes, the hot search #QiZhuoyuHitsPersonBackstageAtSpringFestivalGala# exploded.

The image of a righteous and honest senior official was gone forever.

When other male celebrities operated under the persona of bullying the entertainment industry, most referred to monopolizing viewers’ attention through multiple movies, TV series, and variety shows airing at the same time.

But Qi Zhuoyu’s bullying was… real bullying, damn it!

Including but not limited to “Beating up artists backstage at Spring Festival Gala”, “Assaulting colleagues on set at Hengdian World Studios”, “Furiously beating up popular stars backstage at New Year’s Eve concert”.

There was no one he dared not offend, no colleague he dared not beat up. In short, he could only be described as tyrannical and evil!

As for why he could still be active in the entertainment circle after doing so many outrageous things, the ultimate reason was:

Qi Zhuoyu had a mysterious quality where beating people up was seen as doing good deeds.

When he beat someone up backstage at the 2023 Spring Festival Gala, that artist was exposed the next day for attempting to drug a female celebrity’s drink backstage and was detained by the police. The big devil enforced justice, earning high praise from the police!

When he assaulted a colleague on set at Hengdian World Studios, that colleague was exposed that day for forcibly engaging in relationships with multiple underage fans within the studios and was reported by fans. The big devil eliminated a menace for the people, again earning high praise from the police!

When he furiously beat up a popular star backstage at a New Year’s Eve concert, that popular star was exposed that night for gathering people to do drugs at a hotel party and was reported by Chaoyang District citizens! He was caught by the police in less than half an hour and thrown in jail! The big devil rectified the entertainment industry, once again earning extremely high praise from the police!

To the extent that later on.

The comment section of Qi Zhuoyu’s Weibo became numb.

The most liked comment read: “Hubby, swear that you really came to the entertainment industry to act, not as an undercover agent sent by the police, okay?!”

Although Qi Zhuoyu had a terrible temper, awful personality, and would mock fans online while rolling his eyes at them offline.

As the few fans Qi Zhuoyu had back then said, the only thing rushing towards Qi Zhuoyu was their money, while they themselves were rushing towards hating him!

To the extent that after three years, Qi Zhuoyu seemingly had 40 million Weibo followers.

In fact, 39.99 million were bought by Li Chaofeng, among the remaining 10,000 followers, 9,990 were Li Chaofeng’s alt accounts, and the last 10 were actors and artists who mutually followed Qi Zhuoyu.

It could be said that he achieved truly zero active fans across the entire internet.

There were only water armies and zombie accounts, plus some anti-fans who had been entangled in love and hate with Qi Zhuoyu for three years and still didn’t know why they hadn’t unfollowed him.jpg

****

Feng Xuan actually always had a habit of complaining.

That is, he loved to complain about his inner monologue of sleeping for ten minutes, not ten years.

But every time he just complained a bit.

He actually knew that he really only slept for ten minutes.

However, he didn’t expect.

The three days Qi Zhuoyu disappeared from White Jade Capital really fucking became three years in the mortal realm!

After briefly understanding Qi Zhuoyu’s current identity in the mortal realm.

Feng Xuan felt his whole being wasn’t good, and while feeling not good, he even had a slight sense of relief in his heart. Fortunately, the big devil didn’t do like he did thousands of years ago, descending to become an emperor, after all in his impression, Qi Zhuoyu always wanted to be the boss no matter where he was.

Qi Zhuoyu said, “What?”

Feng Xuan thought, you can already read minds, why do you always ask me, but he still answered honestly. “I thought Senior brother would want to be an emperor when descending.”

Qi Zhuoyu laughed. “What are you thinking?”

Feng Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that after all, the big devil was now considered half a son-in-law of the divine race, so he surely couldn’t be as violent and murderous as before.

Qi Zhuoyu said irritably. “There are no emperors in the mortal realm now.”

Oh, right.

The feudal imperial system had been overthrown for over a hundred years. Now it was a socialist country where the people were in charge, and the government served the people!

It truly was a great new era.

Wait.

Could it be that the big devil thought that because the rights of the common people were more free, he chose to be a commoner?

How to put it.

This perfect logical loop and amazing thought process.

Whoever was in charge and the boss, the big devil wanted to be that?

Just like him.

“Moreover, Senior brother has already researched that young people nowadays no longer extol those human-demon love stories from folklore,” Qi Zhuoyu held him in his arms, looking very proud, “Young people now are more into idolizing celebrities, and write stories and draw pictures to spread their tales.”

Fine then.

The big devil had figured all this out in his three years in the mortal realm.

What could Feng Xuan do but say, “That’s great, Senior brother.”

Feng Xuan didn’t have any objections to participating in a marriage reality show.

After all, he found it quite interesting to do anything as long as he was with Qi Zhuoyu.

The lives of the divine race were too long.

So as soon as he nodded, the person in charge at Little Fish Video received a reply from Qi Zhuoyu’s studio, saying that Qi Zhuoyu had confirmed his participation in the marriage reality show “The One At My Home”.

This left the person in charge at Little Fish Video feeling incredibly honored, after all, who didn’t know that Qi Zhuoyu, this invincible resource star, had only filmed movies in his three years since debut, not participating in any TV dramas, variety shows, or interviews.

It was as if he was in the entertainment industry, yet not in it.

Audiences could usually only see news about him on hot searches.

The news was generally of two types.

One was #QiZhuoyuStarsInFamousDirector’sNewWork#

The other was #QiZhuoyuHitSomeoneAgainOnFamousDirector’sSet!!#

And clarifications:

#NoOneWasHit!#

#ThisTimeHeHitTheDirector#

Okay. So it’s that director.

You’re now on the radar of the Yunjing police force!

Presenting a state of quantum superposition.

Although Little Fish Video had money to spend on inviting countless big names in the industry, they couldn’t help but be excited about Qi Zhuoyu, a big star they couldn’t invite even with money, and who was still a top star and award-winning actor making his variety show debut.

But after the main director’s excitement subsided, his small assistant said, “Although we’ve always heard that Qi Zhuoyu is married, in his three years in the circle, it seems no one has ever seen his wife?”
