Chapter 448: Criticism

Jiang Meng and Wei Shu no longer bothered about losing weight. They ran over and surrounded Gu Xiao, looking at the dessert in Gu Xiao’s hand.

“Xiaoxiao, can we eat this dessert now?”

Jiang Meng looked at the dessert in Gu Xiao’s hand. Just by looking at it, she knew that it was delicious. She swallowed her saliva and tilted her head to look at Gu Xiao.

Wei Shu’s almond-shaped eyes were filled with anticipation as she looked at Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao sized up Jiang Meng and Wei Shu. “Why, are you not going on a diet now?”

Jiang Meng chuckled. “We can diet later.”

“Yes, yes. It’s the same for us to diet later. Anyway, the situation is similar every year.” Wei Shu nodded in agreement.

Although they could eat these foods at other times, the atmosphere during the new year was different. The food seemed to be especially delicious, and unknowingly, they had gained a lot of weight.

Every year, they would experience such a situation. However, with Gu Xiao to compare to this time, they were a little shocked by this matter.

After all, in the past, as long as the people around them celebrated the new year, they would basically gain a few pounds. It was really rare for anyone to be like Gu Xiao, to not gain any weight during the new year.

In the first place, Gu Xiao was just teasing the two of them. After the two of them expressed their willingness to eat dessert, she did not hesitate and distributed the dessert to the two of them.

Seeing how satisfied Wei Shu and Jiang Meng were, Gu Xiao could not help but feel satisfied.

After school started, they collected new books and new class schedules. After doing a series of miscellaneous things, life in school gradually began to become dull. The situation seemed to be no different from the situation of the last semester.

Almost two months after Gu Xiao started school, some short videos criticizing Star Brilliance Entertainment’s television dramas and movies gradually appeared on the Internet.

These short videos used the excuse of commentary to devalue the television dramas and movies produced by Star Brilliance. Even the television dramas and movies starring artists from Star Brilliance Entertainment were criticized.

In particular, “The Consort” and “Peony Fall”, which became popular last year, received the most ridicule from the Internet celebrities.

“The Consort is really popular! Originally, this blogger never liked to watch such harem television dramas. After all, these harem television dramas are all about a group of beauties brainlessly surrounding a man. There’s really nothing good to watch. However, many of my friends are watching and recommending it. Therefore, this blogger also went to watch.”

“As this blogger watched it, although it’s indeed better than some other harem dramas, I have to say that ‘The Consort’ still has some serious weaknesses.”

“Firstly, according to the background of the television drama, ‘The Consort’ was during the Qing Dynasty in our country. However, there was a scene that shocked me very much. In the end, when the female lead returned to the palace, she was actually standing beside the Emperor of the Manchu Dynasty in a phoenix crown and ceremonial robe. There was also the consort selection. The Qing Dynasty stipulated that the potential consorts who participated in the consort selection had to wear blue clothes and braid their hair. The female lead’s attire during the consort selection completely did not conform to this rule of the consort selection. More importantly, the female lead’s attire at the consort selection was what a woman would wear after marriage…”

“Secondly, regarding etiquette, the consort selection for the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty would be carried every three years. Because the male lead at the beginning said that this would be the only time, it completely did not match the situation of that era. This is because the selection is not only for the emperor to choose a concubine, but also for other nobles to choose their own consorts, concubines and so on. If this is the only time the consort selection would be held, wouldn’t the other members of the royal family be unable to marry? Also, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Imperial Court. The female lead’s mother even visits the female lead; she shouldn’t be able to follow the female lead into the palace…”

“Thirdly, regarding an error in common sense, a concubine is the emperor’s woman after all. How can she sing and perform in public? Even if she wants to do it, she should do it in private for the emperor to see alone, right? Also, when the concubine enters the palace, she can’t bring anyone else. Naturally, it’s impossible to bring her own maids. Also, regarding some palace maids in the palace, it’s wrong. It doesn’t match the historical facts…”

“Fourth…”

“Fifth…”

The blogger complained five times in a row. His logic was clear, the content was clear, and it was reasonable. He even released many screenshots of the television drama, fully proving that the content he said was reasonable.

The moment this video was released, it immediately attracted the attention of a large number of netizens..
