All-rounder Artist-Chapter 887 - 834: Everlasting Regret Part 2
The so-called old rascal is often just a topic of jest, a little insider joke shared between the readers, the audience, and Chu Kuang, or even a bit of harmless fun.
Yi An seems to have a leaning in this direction too.
As a fan of Chu Kuang, Yi An is indeed talented; the plot of "Lotus Lantern" is fantastic!
However, Yi An is ultimately not Chu Kuang, and she crossed a line with the audience she should never have crossed, resulting in a total loss of control and a thorough crash and burn.

I'm afraid no one will seek Yi An to write scripts anymore.
A screenwriter who alienates the audience, no matter how good their scripts, only increases the audience's aversion.
Even Yi An's future development may be negatively affected by this.
Being notorious for excessively vilifying Yang Jian in "Journey to the West" will likely be an indelible stain on Yi An's record.
...
In the midst of the overwhelming criticism directed at "Lotus Lantern,"
the Blue Star Primordial Chaos Association finally spoke out!
"Recently, a TV drama titled "Lotus Lantern" has smeared and besmirched the classic image of Erlang Shen, which we find deeply distressing. We accept the scriptwriter's reimagining of Yang Jian, but we cannot accept the disordered storytelling. We hope that such chaos can be controlled, and we hope someone will restore justice to Yang Jian. We have reported to the Literature and Art Association, requesting a ban on the drama, and we strongly condemn Yi An..."
The Primordial Chaos Association snitched!
Previously, due to its connection with "Journey to the West," the association was severely criticized and had kept a low profile for a long time.
Not until the reputation of "Lotus Lantern" took a nosedive did the Primordial Chaos Association dare to emerge, seizing the opportunity very well!
The adversary has given them a chance!
If the Primordial Chaos fans know to seize the opportunity, how much more so the Primordial Chaos Association?
Under these circumstances, even netizens indifferent to the association felt that its statement had merit.
And at this moment,
something unexpected happened!
Tribe also made a statement!
It's strange to say, as logically, Tribe wouldn't have much to do with Primordial Chaos or Yang Jian.
But just now!
Tribe suddenly announced that it would be collaborating with the Primordial Chaos Association to create a film starring Erlang Shen, Yang Jian!
Quite sudden?
Not really.
Because the broker of this partnership turned out to be...
The head of the comics department under Tribe, Ling Kong!
After taking over the project, the first thing Ling Kong did was publish a long essay, criticizing Starlight for smearing Erlang Shen, Yang Jian!
In the article.
Ling Kong claims to be a die-hard fan of The Primordial Chaos, with Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, being his most adored spiritual idol since childhood. He could not sit by and watch "Lotus Lantern" tarnish Yang Jian and decided to make a movie to vindicate him...
"Yang Jian is our hero since childhood. How can such a hero be smeared?"
Ling Kong's indignant accusations!
He is upholding justice!
It seems that in fear his long essay might not draw enough attention, Ling Kong shockingly exposed his identity at the end, claiming his father helped him secure the position to oversee the filming related to Yang Jian.
And his father is none other than the helmsman of Tribe:
Ling Zhou!
This revelation was powerful, instantly making Ling Kong a hot topic. Netizens were surprised to see such a figure becoming involved!
"Holy crap, it's the Crown Prince of Tribe?"
"Ling Kong... sounds vaguely familiar..."
"Damn, Ling Kong is the head of Tribe Comics, the one who drove Shadow away!"
"Pfft, so it was this second-gen who forced Shadow out?"
"One thing at a time, Ling Kong is a man of character. Whatever his beef with Shadow, I fully support his actions this time!"
"There's a picture on Ling Kong's account, so handsome!"
"Wow, dreamy!"
"I suspect Ling Kong has ulterior motives. His relationship with Shadow is so bad; he must be enemies with the Three Bros too, likely seizing the chance to step on Starlight. I don't believe capitalists have any conscience or sense of justice."
"Why assume the worst in people? I think Ling Kong is fine!"
The allure of being the Tribe Crown Prince is undoubtedly dazzling, and the exposition of his identity as a top-tier rich second generation immediately escalated the incident's impact!
...
The media side is bustling!
"Primordial Chaos Association Reports Starlight's New Drama!"
"Tribe Crown Prince Ling Kong Blasts Lotus Lantern!"
"The True-Hearted Heir of Tribe, Ling Kong: Yang Jian is a Hero, Not to Be Smeared!"
"Should 'Lotus Lantern' Be Banned?"
"When the Wall Falls, Everybody Pushes: Tribe Crown Prince Blasts Starlight!"
"Capital Competition or Genuine Sentiment? Big Reveal of Tribe Crown Prince Ling Kong's Identity, Discovering What Kind of Rich Second Generation He Is!"
"..."
In these news stories, Ling Kong's deeds were brought to light.
Apart from creating friction with Shadow and causing Tribe Comics to stumble in the league, this Ling Kong turns out to be quite impressive.
He invested in a state and reaped astonishing profits, earning several times the returns.
He led a department within Tribe to dominate 80% of the market in a certain field.
He has...
In short, Ling Kong's resume is impeccable!
This has also garnered Ling Kong higher attention and even a significant boost in followers. The news has shaped him into a successful, hardworking second generation rich kid.
By comparison, "Lotus Lantern" is in a bind.
Director, screenwriter, actors, and even Starlight have all come under fire!
The united front of the Primordial Chaos Association and Tribe, along with the rhythm set by the fans of Primordial Chaos, has pushed "Lotus Lantern" into the spotlight!
Moreover...
Due to Tribe's influence, after Ling Kong's identity revelation, many well-known vloggers joined in the siege!
