As a public figure, the most important thing is to control public opinion.
And this Chu He clearly had experience in this regard.
If Su Yu and the others were really ordinary people, they would have no way to deal with Chu He in terms of public opinion, because what he said made sense. Even if he was shirking responsibility, it was the security guards who pushed people, and the focus was on them and that security guard. Chu He could completely guide public opinion.
"I'm just stating facts." Chu He didn't know why, but he felt a little flustered under Su Yu's gaze.
However, he quickly reviewed the entire sequence of events and felt that there were no problems, which made him slightly relieved.
"I'll give you one chance, apologize now, or we leave, but we won't accept your apology anymore." Actually, this matter was very trivial for Su Yu, but the fact that they bullied Lin Yanyu was a big deal for Su Yu.
"I've said it before, if you want an apology, go find the security guards. I'm just in an employment relationship with them. If they make a mistake, there's no reason to blame me, the employer." Chu He smiled. In his opinion, it didn't matter whether these two ordinary people accepted his apology or not.
"Still too young. If you experienced a few more years, you would handle it better." Su Yu shook his head with some disappointment.
The best way to handle this matter would be for Chu He to apologize and then use public opinion to create a relatable image. Although he apologized in person, he would be on moral high ground, his fans would promote him even more enthusiastically, and their cohesion would be stronger.
However, young people are often proud and unwilling to bow their heads, even if they understand some of the rules of the industry.
Of course, Su Yu was not in the mood to teach these juniors.
Besides, he had given the other party a chance, and if he didn't seize it, that was that.
"Are you telling me what to do?" Chu He said with a smile.
Lin Yanyu wanted to argue with him, but Su Yu shook his head, then took off his mask and pulled her towards the airport interior.
When Chu He saw Su Yu's face clearly, he stood there stunned as if struck by lightning!
His mind felt like it had exploded!
"Ting... Ting Yu?"
How could it be him?
How could it possibly be him?
Why had he been talking to him for so long???
Chu He had so many question marks in his mind.
"Ting... Teacher Ting Yu, please wait!" His agent reacted first.
They couldn't let Ting Yu leave like this. If Ting Yu revealed his identity and forced Chu He to apologize, it would be fine. They could even create a trending topic about Ting Yu using his status to force a junior to apologize.
But if Ting Yu left without doing anything, and then revealed his identity, that would be troublesome.
Chu He was indeed very popular, but compared to Ting Yu, he was nothing.
Although he had the right, it was only when facing ordinary people, because public opinion was in their hands.
If the other party were Ting Yu, it would be different.
Facing the retention of Chu He's agent, Su Yu acted as if he hadn't heard it, and left with Lin Yanyu.
He had given Chu He a chance, and it was his own fault for not seizing it.
"Ting Yu??"
"My god, he's actually Ting Yu!"
"Then the girl next to him is Lin Yanyu?"
"I actually said just now that Chu He didn't deserve to apologize to Ting Yu..."
"Holy crap, if Chu He doesn't handle this properly, his career will be over!"
"Why didn't he apologize, it would have been fine if he apologized just now!"
"What are you waiting for, Chu He, apologize quickly!"
"The security guards were clearing the way for you, no matter what, you have responsibility, and you should apologize!"
Chu He's fans also reacted.
They all worried about Chu He.
Some even blamed him for not apologizing earlier.
If the other party were an ordinary person, it wouldn't matter whether he apologized or not, but if the other party was Ting Yu, the situation would be different.
"Teacher Ting Yu, I apologize, I'm sorry, it was my fault for not managing the staff properly!" Chu He shouted in Su Yu's direction after he realized what was happening.
But seeing that Su Yu's footsteps did not stop, his legs went weak, and he collapsed on the ground.
"Alas..." Just as Su Yu had predicted, he didn't even need to say a word, and public opinion would instantly be on his side, because he was more popular than Chu He.
At the same time, he also felt a sense of sadness. In the eyes of the public, celebrities seemed to not value their professional abilities at all. As long as they were celebrities, they should be superior. When celebrities faced ordinary people, being relatable seemed to be a point of flattery, and ordinary people seemed to have to give way to them, and ordinary people seemed to have to recognize them.
Celebrities seemed to have special privileges. When they went to restaurants, they didn't have to queue up just by reporting their names. Wherever they went, they were surrounded by countless fans, and even for an event, an entire road could be closed off for them. Ordinary people who were in a hurry to pick up or send them off had to be affected by them.
These all seemed to have become very normal in everyone's eyes.
So, what were the celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry so noble about?
This was a tragedy of the times, and Su Yu could not change this era, nor did he have the ambition to change it. All he could do was stand at the highest point. Since public opinion was the most powerful weapon for influencing public figures, he would control this weapon himself.
...
Soon.
What happened at the airport spread all over the internet.
Chu He's grand send-off by fans, and even clashing with Ting Yu, immediately became a hot topic of discussion across the entire network.
From the way Chu He handled this matter, there wasn't a major problem, but when his target became Ting Yu, the problem became significant.
However, Chu He's agent and team had good public relations skills. They sincerely apologized to Ting Yu on Weibo, voluntarily admitted their mistakes, and then shifted the main responsibility to the security guards. Although they still suffered quite an impact, they were not completely overwhelmed by Ting Yu's fans.
"Why does he offend this Ting Yu every time a new drama is released!" At Guangnian Entertainment, Li Hongyi roared, smashing the tablet in his hand to the ground.
The competition between them and Jiangnan was very fierce now, and it had even reached the point where Guangnian Entertainment's survival was at stake. Dealing with just one Jiangnan was already very difficult, and adding Ting Yu made it impossible to play.
Chen Guowen shook his head helplessly: "Alas... perhaps this is fate."
"Uncle Chen, what do we do now? Should we replace the lead actor?" Li Hongyi's expression was solemn.
Chen Guowen pondered for a moment and said, "No need. Actually, Jiangnan and Ting Yu have long been tied together, cooperating on every project. This time will surely be the same, and Chu He is the most suitable candidate for the lead role at present. Fortunately, their public relations are good this time, and it hasn't reached the point where he absolutely has to be replaced."
Li Hongyi fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he sighed: "Then we also need to help Chu He, otherwise it will affect the results of the drama."
Indeed, only Chu He was suitable in all aspects now, possessing both popularity and strength. If they were to change actors, there would really be no one who could compare to him.
"But we need to prepare for both scenarios. If Ting Yu doesn't pursue Chu He, then continue to use him. If he shows dissatisfaction, then replace him immediately!" Chen Guowen reminded him.
Li Hongyi nodded in agreement.
Now, they could only pray that Ting Yu didn't take him seriously and let Chu He off the hook.
