No one thought that this once-high-profile star would suffer a Waterloo-style blow in 2021.
Bad news struck suddenly
In 2021, a sudden "gift gate" turmoil severely crushed He Jiong's career.
That year, some media revealed that He Jiong had received valuable gifts from merchants, which triggered strong condemnation from public opinion. Although He Jiong flatly denied this accusation, the "gift door" incident exploded on his career like a bomb and made him pay a heavy price.
As the host of "Happy Camp", He Jiong could have continued to sit firmly on Diaoyutai and go hand in hand with the "Happy Family" to continue the glory of this variety show.
Who knew that the sudden turmoil directly led to the suspension of the show, which became the last straw for the show's life.
As a result, the happy stage that used to be full of laughter and laughter fell into complete desertion and silence overnight. He Jiong and the other hosts all left the venue en masse, losing this important work stage that had brought them countless glory and applause.
For He Jiong, this is undoubtedly worse. Originally, because of the negative impact of the "gift gate", he had already been attacked like a storm in the field of public opinion, and his image and reputation were hit hard.
Now, coupled with the loss of the important work stage of "Happy Camp", his income and job opportunities have been greatly reduced, and his livelihood is worried.
Once upon a time, as the "Godfather of Variety Shows", he was in the limelight, with applause and blessings everywhere; Now it has become the object of everyone's fingers, and has been isolated and coldly treated like never before.
This dramatic contrast from the peak to the bottom brought a huge blow and pain to He Jiong's heart.
Back then, every time it was his birthday, there would be countless celebrity friends in the circle of friends who warmly wished him well, and some would even appear in person to celebrate his birthday. But in 2022, when he turned on his phone, he only saw a deserted place, as if the whole world had left him behind.
This kind of loneliness and cold reception is undoubtedly the biggest blow and pain for a star who was surrounded by thousands of people once upon a time.
The pain in his heart made He Jiong fall into unprecedented confusion and despair. He began to question whether he still had a chance to make a comeback, and whether he was still qualified to pursue his dreams. This inner struggle must have caused him to experience a long night of hesitation and pain.
The warmth and coldness of friendship
He Jiong's misfortune once again revealed the unspoken rules of "worshipping high and stepping on low" in the entertainment industry and the warmth of human feelings.
In the past, He Jiong was one of the hottest stars in the entertainment industry. Whenever he goes out to work or walks the red carpet, there are always countless fans and reporters surrounding him, vying to see him.
Not to mention the so-called "friends" around who are rushing to him.
At the beginning, when he first became famous, when he was not completely popular, there were not too many so-called "friends" around him. But as his fame grows and he becomes famous in the entertainment industry, there are more and more people who take advantage of it.
Some people flattered him, and some people took the initiative to befriend him in order to use his influence to gain exposure; Some people even directly wagged their tails at him and begged for mercy, hoping to take advantage of this to get a piece of the pie.
In short, these so-called "friends" are all interests first, and none of them are sincere.
However, at that time, He Jiong, who was at the peak stage, naturally couldn't see the hypocrisy of these "friends" clearly. He was just immersed in the joy of being embraced, enjoying all the glory and treatment of being a star, and he didn't doubt the affectionate friends around him.
Until the outbreak of the "Gift Gate" incident in 2021, He Jiong fell from the peak, and everything changed dramatically in an instant. The "friends" who were originally obedient to him disappeared one after another, as if they had never known him.
Some people publicly dissed him and denounced him as "breaking people's names"; "Some people choose to turn a blind eye and avoid him; There are also some people who have completely blacked him out and cut off all contact.
This contrast between the cold and warm of human feelings brought a huge blow to He Jiong, who was standing alone at the trough of his life. Only then did he suddenly realize that these seemingly close "friends" were simply a group of speculators, all of whom put interests first and were not sincere.
