Chapter 73: Zhao Yiyi's Background

"It's pretty good," Su Po casually replied.
"Su Su, you're so perfunctory," Hai Tang commented, immediately recovering her tone, tirelessly saying, "Yi Dao is really great, he takes such good care of you. He's so handsome and talented, I think you two look really compatible, hehe..."
Su Po turned around and looked at her with a smile that seemed to be fake: "Yeah, Easy Director is really good. I see that you are also a suitable young woman for marriage. Do you want me to help you connect with Easy Director?"
Mei Tang was taken aback and quickly waved her hands: "No no no, I can't do that..."
"Then that's fine," Su Po interrupted her, looked down at his phone, and said indifferently, "Do not do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you, just take care of yourself."
After eating the sour Hawthorn, she pouted to express her dissatisfaction, but her attention was immediately drawn to the lit-up screen of Su Poliang's phone.
The screen of the phone displayed the trending page of Weibo.
Because the Meteor Awards ceremony is being held tonight, and there are no other major events happening, there are many trending topics on the internet related to the Meteor Awards.
Mostly it is about who won which awards and what clothes certain people wore today.
苏朴也上了一个热搜，点开后可以看见营销号发的她今日妆容。
评论和转发数量都很可观，虽然比不上以前她出圈的那几套图，但热度仍旧很高。
Haitang boasted next to him: "This hot search was arranged in advance. It seems that the effect is pretty good."
Su Pu didn't say much, she turned off her own hot search and continued scrolling down.
Flicking to a topic titled #Unfairness of Meteor Award#, I paused for a moment and then clicked into it.
In this topic, all the netizens expressed doubts about the Meteor Award giving the Best Actress to Zhao Yiyi.
There are few refutations, and the majority of netizens who spoke believe that it is unreasonable to give the Best Actress award to Zhao Yiyi.
The doubts come from various aspects.
"Milk and Coffee" has poor quality, the plot is not popular enough, and Zhao Yiyi's acting skills are not good. Winning this award is like incurring public wrath, with almost everyone attacking Zhao Yiyi.
Haitang glanced over and disdainfully said, "This topic was in the top ten before, but the popularity dropped rapidly. Now it's outside the top thirty, definitely suppressed in popularity."
"But no matter how much pressure there is, you see the top trending topic, Zhao Yiyi's Best Actress, it's filled with people criticizing her." Haitang leaned back and comfortably rested against the chair back, "I've visited many forums, and there isn't a single place defending Zhao Yiyi. Even the water army of trolls is doubting her."
"..." Su Pu still slowly browsed the hot search, his voice was cold, seemingly indifferent to what Haitang said.
No matter how much Haitang thought about it, she couldn't figure it out: "What's the use of Zhao Yiyi winning this award? The public doesn't even recognize her now, and even the reputation of the Shooting Star Award has been damaged. It's simply not worth it."
"Who knows." Su Po turned off the phone screen, smiled faintly, and said, "Maybe she just wanted it, so she went and took it."
Su Po's words were vague, making Haitang's mind go through several twists and turns before she finally figured it out after a while.
Zhao Yiyi can get whatever she wants, not because she has abilities, but because someone must be helping her behind the scenes.
In other words, she has someone backing her up, which is why she acts recklessly without any scruples.
Haitang wanted to say something more sarcastic, but seeing Supu's indifferent appearance, she closed her mouth.
At this moment, no matter how much we complain, it is just venting. Instead of complaining, it is better to focus on doing our own thing.
They stopped their discussion, but the online wind continued to blow stronger and stronger. The next day, after Zhao Yiyi won the award and the interview video was released, the criticism against her reached its peak.
In the video, the reporter asked Zhao Yiyi about her thoughts on winning the award. Dressed in a blue and black long dress, Zhao Yiyi smiled gently and managed her expressions extremely well. In front of the microphone, she said, "I think receiving this honor is a recognition of my acting ability by the judges, as well as a recognition of my hard work in acting. I hope to win more awards in the future and not let everyone's expectations down."
These remarks may not be a problem if said by someone else, but when said by Zhao Yiyi, they become particularly thought-provoking.
The public already assumes that she obtained this award through some shady means, so her words make her appear especially hypocritical.
What's more, Zhao Yiyi's acting skills have no highlights, and there have been rumors of multiple body doubles being used, which are said to be a recognition of her acting abilities and hard work, but it only feels particularly ironic.
In summary, Zhao Yiyi was scolded mercilessly and speculation about her background has spread widely.
At this moment, Han Zao, who had been quietly filming throughout the entire Meteor Awards, sat in the five-star hotel provided by the crew and almost burst out laughing.
She originally signed up for the Meteor Awards, but didn't make the cut, so she was very angry when she heard that Su Pu was nominated.
She worried that Su Pu would win the award and thought that if Su Pu won, she would definitely be more powerful and she might never catch up again.
The result is that Zhao Yiyi, this fool, won an award.
It turns out that losing the nomination is also a good thing. After all, Su Piao's nomination is just to accompany Zhao Yiyi. She doesn't need to carry the sedan chair for others and can watch the tigers fight from the mountain.
As she guessed, Zhao Yiyi won the award, but it not only failed to impress others, but also tarnished the reputation of the Meteor Award.
For Han Zao, this situation could not be better.
Since there are no winners, she has no complaints in her heart.
She didn't feel any envy towards Zhao Yiyi, and even wanted to mock her for being ignorant and acting freely just because she had a background.
Others might not know, but Han Zao is well aware of who Zhao Yiyi's background is.
It is Mr. Huo Shaoyang, also known as Mr. Huo, from the Foxconn Technology Group.
Han has met Huo Shaoyang before, a man in his early forties who takes good care of himself. He doesn't have a bald head or a beer belly and looks very elegant.
但也仅仅是看上去。
一个有家室的中年男人还能和二十来岁的女明星搅在一起，能好到哪里去？
捧一个赵依依这样的菟丝花，可能是他的乐趣所在。
There is no hostile or jealous feeling between Han Zao and Zhao Yiyi mainly because they don't have much conflict in their interests, they go their own separate ways, and neither of them hinders the other, so she never mentions these things to anyone.
She can also thank Zhao Yiyi for this Meteor Award, as watching Su Pu accompany her made her feel happy.
The controversy over the Meteor Award took several days to gradually calm down, but the label of being unworthy was stuck on Zhao Yiyi's head and couldn't be removed. When Zhao Yiyi is mentioned on various forums, people are curious about her background.
There are different opinions, but everyone agrees that she has someone to support her, which can be called an open secret.

This collaboration has left fans of both parties very dissatisfied.
