Chapter 2: An Interlude at the Press Conference
The temporary assistant walked out from behind the scenes and into the hall, but did not come into contact with any security guards at the venue. He just walked around perfunctorily, pretending to have completed the task assigned by Han Yun.
Before the temporary assistant returned, the host came to the stage and reminded the reporters to be quiet.
After a few brief opening remarks, director Lin Zhi, female lead Li Simo, and male lead Han Yun were invited to appear. After the three of them and the host took their seats, the reporters present began to stand up and ask the questions they had prepared.
The questions were prepared in advance and handed over to the organizer, who had screened them, so several people had already thought of the answers to each question, and the atmosphere on the scene was harmonious.
When the entertainment reporters stood up one by one to ask questions to the director and the female lead, Han Yun's eyes were always on the suspicious girl.
At first, the girl didn't look up, nor did she pay attention to the questions asked by others, let alone how the person sitting on the stage answered.
She seemed to be waiting for a certain moment to do something...
This press conference will last for an hour. All the reporters present knew this, and the girl must have known it too. She looked up at the stage for the first time about 20 minutes into the Q&A session.
Her eyes met Han Yun who was sitting on the stage. After a brief eye contact, she lowered her head again.
Twenty minutes into the press conference, he looked up at the stage for the first time. He was not looking at the girl who was speaking, nor at the host, but directly at him.
Could it be that what the girl was about to do was related to him? Han Yun guessed.
"My question is for the male lead, Han Yun." A reporter next to the girl stood up, took the microphone from someone else and said, "As we all know, you have the greatest influence since the release of Detective Dee. Not only did your fans exceed one million overnight, but netizens also dug up videos of you participating in the show, and learned that you also have a very high IQ in real life. What I want to ask is, have you shown a very high IQ since you were a child?"
Han Yun straightened up, took the microphone from the host, looked away from the suspicious girl, and replied, "It's not as exaggerated as what is said online. Some netizens have made me a legend after watching the drama. The character I played in the drama is indeed a person with high IQ and EQ, but in real life, I am just an ordinary person like everyone else."
"You are not an ordinary person. Ordinary people will not be as lucky as you. You are well-known by the public just by starring in a drama." Another entertainment reporter stood up and said, "In the eyes of ordinary people, you are a person favored by the goddess of luck. As the drama airs, you have become a real lucky fish. Today's hot search still has 'Repost Lucky Fish Han Yun'. So my question is, what do you think of this sudden fame?"
"It's like this. I don't plan to enter the entertainment industry or become a professional actor in the future, so fame doesn't seem to have much meaning to me." Han Yun smiled and replied, "I hope you will pay more attention to the director of this drama and the heroine Li Simo next to me. She is a professional actor."
Han Yun's answer seemed to affect the enthusiasm of the reporters present, and the next few questions were asked to the director and the heroine.
The press conference had been going on for more than forty minutes and was about to end. After the reporters had asked most of the questions they were supposed to ask, the suspicious girl finally raised her head again and raised her hand.
Seeing the girl stand up, the staff in the venue handed the microphone to her.
At this moment, the girl looked at Han Yun on the stage without any hesitation, and then asked loudly: "I want to ask this question to Han Yun. Do you think you are very successful now?"
Before Han Yun on the stage could pick up the microphone to answer, the girl asked again: "Since the Beidu Police Department has hired you as a 'case consultant', you have an unshirkable responsibility for the safety of the lives of the people of Beidu. But let me ask you, do you know how many murders have occurred in Beidu recently?"
The girl's two consecutive questions made the reporters at the scene look at each other in bewilderment.
The security guards around the venue had no intention of stepping forward to stop it. Han Yun on the stage refused the microphone handed to him by the host. He knew that the girl who asked the questions did not want him to answer them.
"You probably don't know, right? While you were enjoying your fame and being admired by everyone, two lives were brutally murdered in Beidu City, and the murderer is still at large." The girl said aggressively, "Do you think you are worthy of the trust of the Beidu Police Department? Are you worthy of the position of 'Case Consultant'? Are you worthy of the ability that the goddess of luck has bestowed on you?"
The host on the stage seemed to realize something after hearing what the girl said. He hurriedly stepped down from the side and called the security guard to whisper something to him. Then two security guards walked over and forcibly pulled him out of the venue.
The girl who lost the microphone was escorted away by two security guards, still shouting: "You should feel ashamed, you should feel ashamed."
The girl was pulled out of the venue. The host was afraid that the reporters would continue to ask questions based on the girl's topic, so before the press conference got completely out of control, the host directly said the closing remarks. Amid the dissatisfied shouts of the reporters, he walked off the stage with the director, the female lead, and Han Yun, and left the hall under the escort of security guards and returned to the arranged lounge.
After entering the lounge, the organizers of this press conference apologized repeatedly.
Han Yun ignored all this and went straight into the changing room, took off his suit and changed into his own clothes. After saying hello to the temporary assistant, he left.
I'm afraid that after the farce just now, many entertainment reporters gathered at the main entrance of the hotel, intending to continue digging out some information. So Han Yun did not go through the main entrance, but left through the side door and went directly to the parking lot to pick up the car.
But he did not leave immediately. Instead, he drove back to the main entrance of the hotel to look for the girl who had just caused a scene at the press conference.
Just as he guessed, there were indeed many entertainment reporters and a large number of fans surrounding the main entrance of the hotel, but among these people, there was no sign of the girl.
It seems that the girl has left after being kicked out by the security guard.
Han Yun was not worried about not being able to see the girl. Since the girl had already prepared and disguised herself as an entertainment reporter to cause a scene at the press conference, she must have a backup plan.
In his opinion, the girl had two purposes for doing that just now. One was to make Han Yun remember her as quickly as possible; the other was to give the reporters present a piece of news to fully demonstrate their gossip skills.
I’m afraid it won’t be long. Maybe now there are reports about this matter in short videos, public accounts, or Weibo.
Han Yun didn't care about how the media reported this incident. He was more interested in what the girl who made a scene at the press conference would do next.
