Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 959 - 958:

Hua Yiwu, the leading young idol of Cherry Entertainment, a top-tier celebrity, is publicly portrayed as a dedicated young idol of the new generation, and in terms of relationships, he's a relationship novice who's never been in love, blushing at the sight of a female, and is even seen as a 'silly sweet' by fans.

Lin Fan knew nothing about this Hua Yiwu, he just happened to overhear Hua Yiwu discussing Liu Yina in the restroom.

From their conversation, it obviously sounded like two sleazy guys.

Originally, Lin Fan would have just ignored it, but having just learned outside that Hua Yiwu was part of Cherry Entertainment, Lin Fan had some thoughts...

While waiting for Hua Yiwu to leave, Lin Fan did a quick search on his phone.

He couldn't help but let out a cold chuckle.

These celebrities nowadays are so fake. This Hua Yiwu is far from being 'silly sweet.' Judging by their previous conversation, Hua Yiwu has probably fooled around with countless women, and loves to gossip about women behind their backs, using very vulgar language.

Lin Fan understands that celebrities build personas just like brands establish brand images. No brand would openly declare their flaws; it's all about creating a positive image, even if it's contrary to reality. Otherwise, how else would you trick people into buying?

It's the same with celebrities; they have to portray a perfect image outwardly, so fans can brag, "My idol is so positive! They're the epitome of positive energy! My idol is not only incredibly handsome, but they also sing and dance well, and they are kind, gentle, and honest..." and so on.

Whether they're handsome or not is subjective, not much to discuss. In Lin Fan's view, today's male traffic stars are basically all effeminate, a style imported from Korea. The current generation of young ladies is influenced by Korean aesthetics, hence the youngsters dress effeminately, some even androgynously.

Lin Fan, out of boredom, had browsed the internet and stumbled upon a trending topic about a young idol. The young idol was in a pink suit, with deliberately fluffy hair and smooth skin. If it weren't for the fans' screaming comments like "Brother is so handsome," Lin Fan might have mistaken them for a girl.

Then Lin Fan scrolled down and found a comment, buried by fan comments but when he saw it, he laughed for ages.

The comment said: "Whose daughter is this?"

Lin Fan almost laughed to death.

Honestly, Lin Fan can't appreciate effeminate young idols. He believes men should be more masculine, like soldiers; those army guys are both masculine and handsome.

As for ability, the typical young celebrities with high traffic aren't particularly skilled, but that's alright. They know how to market themselves, have fan groups to control public opinion, so bad gets turned into good. If the singing is truly off, there's always auto-tune to cover all flaws.

Character-wise, that's probably the easiest part. After all, anyone can put on a show. When it comes to acting like a positive young person, these young idols, though terrible actors, are all like award-winning performers.

Truth can't be faked, and a false persona will eventually crack.

In fact, this Hua Yiwu has had several scandals before. Lin Fan counted them, there were several women who had previously accused Hua Yiwu of manipulating their feelings.

But Cherry Entertainment's PR team is truly formidable; they've perfectly managed all these incidents.

The PR tactics aren't particularly sophisticated but very effective, essentially just smearing the women who expose him, digging up dirt on them, rallying fans to create negative public opinion about the women online, turning Hua Yiwu into the victim instead of the perpetrator.

This PR strategy works consistently well, being simple yet effective.

Of course, there's more to it; Hua Yiwu is with Cherry Entertainment, and no one in the entertainment industry dares to offend Cherry Entertainment, so no one pursues these matters deeply, allowing Hua Yiwu to escape unscathed time and again.

What if there's a person who isn't afraid of Cherry Entertainment...

"Hmm..." Lin Fan thought deeply.

Assuming Liu Yina had already gone upstairs with Hua Yiwu, Lin Fan finally left the restroom, and as expected, couldn't spot them at the lobby anymore.

"Mr. Lin, have you finished in the restroom now, can you leave?" a hotel receptionist came over to ask.

Lin Fan smiled, "Sure, I'm leaving now."

Lin Fan walked out of the Haojiang Grand Hotel and returned to his car, his eyes still on the hotel entrance, waiting silently.

Meanwhile, Liu Yina led Hua Yiwu and his team to a suite in the hotel.

"Yi Dance brother, this is the room I've arranged for you," Liu Yina said.

"Thank you," Hua Yiwu replied with a gentlemanly smile.

Liu Yina blushed slightly, stealing a glance at Hua Yiwu, "Yi Dance brother, aren't you inviting me in to sit for a while?"

Hua Yiwu smiled, "I'd be happy to invite you in, but aren't you worried about what others might say? I personally don't mind, I'm used to some rumors, but I must protect you; that's a man's responsibility."

Liu Yina was deeply touched, Yi Dance brother was indeed very gentlemanly.

"Alright then, Yi Dance brother, rest early, I'll head back," Liu Yina said.

Hua Yiwu replied, "Yes, it's dark outside, be safe."

Liu Yina felt a warm feeling, Yi Dance brother was truly a nice person, just like the rumors, very respectful towards women.

As Liu Yina was about to leave.

"Wait a moment," Hua Yiwu suddenly called out to Liu Yina.

Liu Yina's heart leapt with joy, perhaps Yi Dance brother changed his mind and wanted her to come in for a chat. She really wanted to chat with Yi Dance brother; he's her idol, and soon to be her colleague. Building a good relationship with Yi Dance brother would make things easier at the company. Although her father is Liu Jinwei, ensuring no one would dare trouble her, befriending Hua Yiwu was still necessary.

"Yi Dance brother, what is it?" Liu Yina asked.

Hua Yiwu replied, "I heard, just heard, that your father invited Ning Xiaoyue to his birthday party?"

Liu Yina was taken aback, she thought Yi Dance brother wanted to tell her something, but it was about Ning Xiaoyue.

Liu Yina said, "Yes."

Hua Yiwu smiled, "Is Ning Xiaoyue staying here too? I don't mean anything by it, it's just that she's really popular lately, and I wondered if there's a chance we might work together in the future. If she's staying here, it would be polite to say hello."

Hearing this, Liu Yina felt a slight discomfort, Yi Dance brother wanted to collaborate with Ning Xiaoyue, which made her a bit jealous.

"She's not here, hasn't arrived yet." Liu Yina lied without hesitation.

Hua Yiwu looked slightly disappointed, "Alright, never mind then. Yina sister, you should go back, be safe."

With that, Hua Yiwu entered the room with his assistant.

Liu Yina gritted her teeth. Hmph, seriously, why think about Ning Xiaoyue? Can't you collaborate with me?

Liu Yina left the hotel, and the moment she appeared at the door, a pair of eyes focused on her.
