Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

It was Zhang Daqiang’s first time being in a detention center, his first time getting locked away in a dark room, his first time being interrogated by police officers in his life — Wait, no, the police officers hadn’t even start interrogating him before he pooped his pants and took the initiative to confess everything.

Zhang Daqiang said the classmate who exposed Liu Man was a netizen with the Wei Bo nickname, “NANA.” One day, he received a private message containing thousands of words from “NANA”, and the entire message was revealing how bad Hanfu Goddess was. This “NANA” requested him to put everything she wrote onto the internet.

At that time, Hanfu Goddess was not as famous as now, and Zhang Daqiang didn’t think exposing a small cyber star would bring him any economic benefits. He only thought this was just jealousy between classmates, and these were boring complaints. He read the message purely out of fun;

Those pictures of the nanny van were from a normal paparazzi who sold them at a low price. Although it was Tang Tu’s nanny van, Tang Tu did not show his face, so Zhang Daqiang thought these photos were valueless. He left those photos aside and didn’t use them at all;

As for the WeChat history screenshots, Zhang Daqiang said Qiao Xin sent them to him. Qiao Xin was also the one who wanted to expose Tang Tu. Zhang Daqiang sent Qiao Xin 100k RMB as a “material fee” and even showed the transfer record from the bank.

Zhang Daqiang was not a fool; after all, he went from a mediocre paparazzi to a super big verified account on Wei Bo. He soon realized the only reason why he got arrested was because of the chat history. He immediately blamed everything on Qiao Xin, saying Qiao Xin was behind it all and he was only working for Qiao Xin to help send a post.

Hearing about the “100k” from Tang Tu, Qiao Xin’s face paled. He understood that Zhang Daqiang sold him out. He stared at Tang Tu and said resentfully, “I didn’t expect you to have such ability.”

As a celebrity, one had to be in the entertainment circle at all times. A few gossips and rumors were nothing! Everyone’s privacy and secrets were exposed and dug, and everyone fought against each other on Wei Bo. None of them got arrested by the officers just because of this kind of “small incident.”

He couldn’t help but think of the rumor. The rumor that said how Tang Tu wasn’t just a mediocre art student who studied violin; he had a background, and a unique one.

Qiao Xin had always thought Tang Tu intentionally spread this rumor to make himself seem special and outstanding.

He didn’t foresee that Tang Tu was

unique.

What Qiao Xin was thinking, everyone else currently at the scene came across that thought, too.

Ye Zian couldn’t find a way to continue being an onlooker. Qiao Xin’s actions were despicable and vicious, sure. Ye Zian disliked him for what he did.

But if the cops took Qiao Xin under custody, there would be a huge wave in the industry. Ye Zian couldn’t control Qiao Xin’s future, and he didn’t want to. But what about the movie? Qiao Xin was the male lead! The movie hadn’t even finished shooting, and the male lead got involved in such a farce. Would there even be any audience left when the film gets published?

He couldn’t let his past few months of hard work get wasted just like that.

He tried to convince Tang Tu, “We will be finished with the filming stage in two days. Your issue can get solved in private after we finish filming, okay?” Ye Zian’s tone, surprisingly, sounded as if he was pleading.

“Sorry, Director Ye. I’ve always liked to deal with matters straightaway so a certain someone won’t get an opportunity to escape,” Tang Tu did not give Ye Zian face at all; he rejected Ye Zian coldly.

Ye Zian felt his heart freeze, “When the rumor between you and Liu Man popped out on Thursday, I was kind enough to help you clarify on Wei Bo.

“Are you sure you did that for me and Liu Man? Or did you think of that backup plan because you didn’t want your movie to get badly influenced by the both of us?”

Everyone in the cast was confused. What was wrong with Tang Tu today?

For a long time, everyone had always had the impression that Tang Tu was polite and respectful. After all, he was an artist. There was no way to hide his arrogance in his bones. Of course, he could not be as friendly as the villain, Lu Yi, but everyone had never seen Tang Tu lose his temper.

They did not expect Tang Tu to look so scary when he was angry. His entire aura had changed, and he didn’t show respect for anyone. He was hostile, and even Director Ye Zian seemed like nothing in his eyes.

Seeing that even Ye Zian couldn’t hold back Tang Tu, Qiao Xin’s courage came from nowhere as he said to Tang Tu arrogantly, “Are there no more laws in this world? Yes, I took a sneak peek at your phone and took a photo of your WeChat chat history; you can calculate all your losses and how much money you need, and I will compensate you for this kind of trivial matter. You found a group of policemen to come over, and they are abusing power and wasting national resources. Beware of your backstage supporter getting prosecuted.”

Tang Tu raised his brows, “Since you are talking laws to me, then I will have a good discussion with you now,” He told the policeman that looked like the leader, “Officer Zhang, please tell this person who knows nothing about the law what he did in violation of the laws.”

The police officer, Zhang, who got called upon by Tang Tu, stood upright. He faced Qiao Xin and said sternly, “Article 252 of the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China stipulates: concealing, destroying or illegally opening other people’s letters, infringing citizens’ right to freedom of communication is forbidden. If the circumstances are serious, you shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of less than one year or criminal detention. WeChat counts as a form of a modern letter, and you have made an illegal profit of 100k RMB. You have violated the criminal law and fall into the category of serious circumstances. We have the right to arrest you.”

Then, Officer Zhang even presented the warrant, proving that they were legally exercising authority and not pulling a trick with Tang Tu.

Hearing that he was going to get imprisoned, Qiao Xin was so scared he could barely even stand on his feet. Two policemen, looking very experienced, twisted his arms and pulled him away in a direction. Like a puppet, he followed them with a look of embarrassment. How could he possibly have kept the slightest celebrity-like temperament?

Everyone else was stunned by this scene.

From now on, even if they had 800 times their usual bravery, they would never dare to peek at others’ chat history ever again! They would get imprisoned!

If one thought more carefully, the scariest thing was that the Weibo scandal happened the day before yesterday. In such a short period, this group of police officers obtained the arrest warrant. How could the process have gone so fast?

What exactly was Tang Tu’s background?

After the arrest, Tang Tu was in a very light mood. He told Ye Zian, “Apologies, my tone was a bit disrespectful just now.”

Hehe, was it just “a bit disrespectful?”

Ye Zian no longer had his face and dignity as a director.

But Tang Tu’s apology slightly attenuated his awkward expression, “I know how you feel. As a director, I only want to have my film shot successfully; I want it to end well, and I don’t want any incidents to happen.”

“Don’t be worried,” Tang Tu said, “Professor Qiu and President Gao are all aware of Qiao Xin’s arrest. They’ve already found a solution for all the issues afterward, and they will call you later.”

Ye Zian froze, and all the other staff in the cast were also stunned.

Qiu Jing and Gao Jindong authorized the policemen to arrest Qiao Xin.

Tang Tu’s background is so scary.

Everyone trembled. They started to try to remember whether they did anything to offend Tang Tu in the past few months as his co-workers.
