On an ordinary day in September 2023, Zhao Liying's loyal fans ushered in an unprecedented catastrophe. As Zhao Liying's "hardcore" supporter, his Wanfan account was permanently banned by the platform, which used to be a model of star-chasing, but now he has to bear infamy.
It turns out that the source of all this can be traced back to the cooperation between Zhao Liying and the new idol Wang Yibo. Zhao Liying's fans have a lot of complaints about this "cross-circle matching", and they have posted online to boycott it.
However, the situation quickly spiraled out of control, and a vicious scolding battle broke out between fans on both sides of the body.
Just when this smoky melee was in full swing, it just caught up with the major reorganization of the entertainment industry. As a result, more than 140 accounts on Zhao Liying's side were permanently blocked, including the "Fat Ying Flying Knife" that has been silently paid.
It is undoubtedly a heavy blow to this fan who has supported Zhao Liying for ten years. Back then, as a fan representative, he personally gave a pair of dazzling custom crystal high heels to his beloved idol, and won Zhao Liying's affectionate hug.
At that moment, he became a role model in the star-chasing world, and the number of fans skyrocketed.
Now, he is responsible for his fanatical behavior back then, at the cost of losing his valuable account. The encounter of "Fat Ying Flying Knife" has undoubtedly become the most tragic page in this turmoil.
This major event undoubtedly had a heavy impact on Zhao Liying. She has always been famous, but at this moment, she cannot escape the fate of the interview. The root cause of the chaos in the fan circle is no longer limited to the fan group, and more and more problems are spreading towards the idol himself.
Chasing stars sensibly is precisely the most urgent topic at the moment. The encounter with the "Fat Ying Flying Knife" has undoubtedly become a warning, reminding us that we must abandon blind worship and return to the track of reason.
Only in this way can we truly cherish the idols in our hearts, and we can also make the road of chasing stars more open.
Zhao Liying's acting career
Looking back on Zhao Liying's acting career, it is not difficult for us to find a little girl from a poor rural area, with her tenacious will and persistent pursuit, and finally reached the peak step by step on this long road.
At that time, Zhao Liying was just an unknown girl who drifted north, without any background or network support, and the hardships of life can be imagined. But even in the face of many obstacles, she never gave up on her ideals and dreams.
In the process of crawling in the entertainment industry, Zhao Liying has also experienced a lot of heart-wrenching encounters.
Once, she was ridiculed in public by the director at the filming site, saying that her mouth shape was like a "pig's mouth". For such naked humiliation, she gritted her teeth and accepted it without saying a word.
This humorous "pig's mouth" evaluation undoubtedly hit Zhao Liying, who was just starting out. But instead of bowing to this humiliation, she chose to grit her teeth silently and hold on.
Another time, she needed to co-star in a work with Zhou Dongyu, who was four years younger than herself, and took on the most subtle and maximum role challenges in the entire plot.
Surprisingly, her rumored boyfriend Chen Xiao happened to be in the same crew at that time. Despite the overwhelming pressure, Zhao Liying still persevered and completed every shot with her extraordinary professional ethics.
Every time during the shooting, as long as there is a slight physical injury, Zhao Liying will grit her teeth and persevere. She never showed weakness to the director and crew, but chose to endure it silently.
This kind of tenacious and persistent spirit is undoubtedly admirable.
From a little-known actor to a top-traffic artist with 90 million loyal fans, Zhao Liying's transformation is shocking. Even though she has achieved great accomplishments and fame, she is still humble and courteous, and has never forgotten her roots.
The little girl from the poor countryside overcame all the obstacles on this uneven road, and finally shined in the spotlight. She proved with her practical actions that as long as there is a tenacious will and persistent pursuit, anyone can climb to the top step by step in this cruel entertainment industry.
Zhao Liying and Chen Xiao are riddled with scandals
The scandal between Zhao Liying and Chen Xiao can be traced back many years ago. At that time, the two sparked widespread speculation because they collaborated on multiple works. Some people speculate that there may be some unspeakable relationship between them, but the two have diametrically opposite attitudes.
In an interview, Zhao Liying proudly revealed that Chen Xiao had expressed her affection for her, and that smug expression almost overflowed from the screen. However, when the host asked the same question, Chen Xiao was silent, his expression was cold, and his eyes revealed an unspeakable indifference.
Soon, the spearhead of public opinion pointed at Zhao Liying, accusing her of tying up Chen Xiao excessively and carrying a heavy burden for this. But in fact, as early as a few years ago, when the media asked Chen Xiao if he liked Zhao Liying, he kept silent, and only Zhao Liying was full of joy on her face.
Since then, scandals about the two of them have begun to spread.
Looking back at the photos of the crew at the time, they seem to have chosen to ignore their colleagues, and despite the cameras watching closely, it doesn't affect the two of them to look closely at each other's phones.
Even Chen Xiao once publicly stated that Zhao Liying is one of his favorite types.
Whether it is a war of words with Ye Zuxin or a series of controversies caused by being mistaken for Yang Mi, Zhao Liying always chooses to deal with it head-on and never compromises with anyone easily.
This may be the source of her controversy.
Regarding this series of scandals, Zhao Liying has never shown the slightest wavering. She is always honest with everything and never tries to hide or shy away. This straightforward personality has undoubtedly sparked widespread discussion and criticism, but it also reflects her unique charm as an actor.
Straightforward personality provokes controversy
Zhao Liying's personality has always been recognized as "straightforward" in the industry. Unlike many celebrities, she always maintains a cold image, but often expresses her thoughts unabashedly.
For another example, when Zhao Liying and Xie Na met for the first time, she actually expressed her preference for the latter, which couldn't help but feel a little incredible. This dissatisfaction with other people's taste in clothing, although it comes from her own aesthetic standards, undoubtedly caused Xie Na's unhappiness.
Xie Na was so angry that she wanted to swallow all the big things in her heart, and this straightforward and frank character undoubtedly touched her sensitive nerves.
This kind of straightforwardness and frankness of character has actually made Zhao Liying the target of the entertainment industry. It is not difficult to imagine that if other celebrities were in a similar situation, perhaps everyone's reaction would be different.
For example, if Liu Yifei encounters an incident that is misrecognized, perhaps everyone will look at it in a more tolerant way.
It is precisely because of this straightforwardness of character that Hei Zhao Liying's public opinion once became a trend. But even when she was wildly attacked, she still stuck to her principles and never gave up expressing her ideas easily.
When asked by the host about her preference for performing arts or stage shows, Zhao Liying responded almost without thinking about it, saying that she loves performing arts. Did she forget that Zheng Kai, who was sitting next to her and made a name for himself in the entertainment industry by relying entirely on variety shows? For such an act that has no achievements on the performance stage, Zhao Liying still unabashedly expressed her preference, which undoubtedly caused a lot of controversy.
But that's exactly what Zhao Liying has always been like. She never deliberately caters to the tastes of the audience, but expresses her thoughts honestly. Perhaps it is this straightforwardness of character that gives her the courage to show her true self on any occasion.
Fan loyalty vs. price
Looking back at Zhao Liying's acting career, it is not difficult to find that her fan base does not win by quantity, but always maintains a high level of loyalty and connotation quality.
At the 2017 New Year's Eve party, Zhao Liying tearfully and affectionately said this boiling sentence: "Whoever can give me a pair of crystal shoes, I will marry him."
These words instantly sparked cheers from the audience. At this moment, a loyal fan of "Fat Ying Flying Knife" took the stage and presented a long-planned birthday gift.
The precious gift was not gold or silver treasure or limited-edition luxury, but a pair of sparkling crystal heels. When Zhao Liying saw these shoes, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
This is not hypocrisy, but she feels the sincere love and respect in such an affectionate gift.
As we all know, Zhao Liying has been known as the "three-inch golden lotus" since her debut because of her unique foot size of only 34 sizes, and at this size, it has almost become a luxury to find a pair of well-fitting high heels.
The crystal slipper given to her by fans is actually an affirmation and encouragement of Zhao Liying's persistence and hard work since her debut ten years ago.
For such a die-hard fan, Zhao Liying did not hesitate to give him an affectionate hug. This undoubtedly makes him a model in the star-chasing world. Just after giving away that unique pair of crystal slippers, the exposure of "Fat Ying Flying Knife" soared instantly, and his number of fans exceeded 2 million at an astonishing speed.
Such an achievement is undoubtedly unattainable for ordinary fans.
In September last year, the "Fat Ying Flying Knife" account, which had been supporting Zhao Liying for ten years, was suddenly banned by the platform, and Zhao Liying was punished and interviewed for it.
Now, the former star-chasing model has to bear infamy, all of which stems from Zhao Liying's fans boycotting her and Wang Yibo's second pairing. The chaotic phenomenon in the fan circle has caused many star chasers to gradually lose their original pure motivation and persistent beliefs, and fans have conflicts with the main ones, tearing each other up to personal attacks.
And this scolding battle happened to hit the high-voltage line of rectification, and as a result, more than 140 accounts on Zhao Liying's side were permanently blocked, including the loyal "Fat Ying Flying Knife".
Reflect on the chaos in the rice circle
Zhao Liying's fans suffered a heavy blow, and this incident that shocked the entertainment industry undoubtedly had a heavy impact on her. Looking at this series of turmoil, it is not difficult for us to find that the chaos in the fan circle has already spread to the celebrities themselves, and this is not just a problem of the fan base.
The reason why this happened can actually be traced back to the characteristics of Zhao Liying's own character. As we mentioned earlier, she has always been known for being "straightforward", whether it is a dispute with Yang Mi and Xie Na, or an incident that is mistaken in public, she always chooses to deal with it head-on, and never easily compromises with anyone.
This frank and honest personality is actually the source of her controversy. Some people say that if Liu Yifei encounters a similar situation, maybe everyone will look at it in a more tolerant way.
But it was Zhao Liying, and her reaction was often too straightforward, which directly triggered widespread discussions.
It is this kind of character trait that made Zhao Liying once the target of the entertainment industry. Even when she was wildly attacked, she still stood firm and did not back down. But this kind of behavior also invisibly exacerbated the chaos in the fan circle, and eventually affected his die-hard fans.
The chaos in the rice circle has taken a heavy toll on everyone. For Zhao Liying, although she herself was not directly involved, as an idol, she was inevitably suffering.
She not only has to bear the negative impact from fans, but also has to be interviewed and punished by the relevant departments for this.
Such a result is undoubtedly embarrassing. Perhaps, if Zhao Liying could have treated the controversy with a more calm and calm attitude and not be easily caused by emotional fluctuations, or if her fans could look at their idols more rationally and calmly, the situation would not have evolved to such a point.
Chasing stars sensibly is precisely the most urgent topic at the moment. The encounter with the "Fat Ying Flying Knife" has undoubtedly become a warning, reminding us that we must abandon blind worship and return to the track of reason.
Only in this way can we truly cherish the idols in our hearts, and we can also make the road of chasing stars more open.
