Chapter 163: Angry like a pufferfish, this sick ecosystem

Jin Li frowned: "Will this be a bit difficult?"

Sui Lingfang: "Of course it's difficult. Everyone knows the nature of Pineapple TV. If they really manipulated the votes, how could they not have covered their tracks? Even if we insist on checking according to her temper this time, I'm afraid it will be fruitless."

If the production team wants to do something, they will only do it seamlessly. After all, the data is all up to them.

But it is even more normal for Xi Sister Meng Ze to raise doubts in this situation.

Clearly performing normally without mistakes, how could she fall to last place?

Jin Li asked in a deep voice: "Sister Fang, what do you think about this?"

Sui Lingfang sighed: "What else can I think? The production team is just looking for trouble. They probably had the heart to let Meng Meng fall to last place long ago. Her singing love songs this time just happened to suit their wishes."

Jin Li frowned: "Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Sui Lingfang thought for a while: "Let it go, we won't.

We have signed a contract, and the contract gives singers the clause to check the votes, so we must go through this clause, at least to show our attitude.

If the production team doesn't act like humans next time, don't blame us for tearing things apart, but this time we must shake hands and make peace."

Jin Li was silent for a while and said hesitantly: "With Meng Meng's temper, I'm afraid she won't just endure it like this."

Sui Lingfang said with a firm attitude: "Enduring it is a must. Do you know how high Meng Meng's popularity is right now?"

Jin Li asked curiously: "Is it very high? I just came back and haven't been online much."

Sui Lingfang: "Very high!"

"This matter Pineapple TV indeed didn't do it right, but thanks to them letting Meng Meng be at the bottom, netizens are cursing about it, calling it a dark operation, and everyone is feeling unfair for Xi Sister Meng Ze!"

As Sui Lingfang spoke, she also smoothed out the chaotic and complex thoughts in her mind.

"So we must cooperate with Pineapple TV. We can't argue anymore. Offending a big platform is not good for Meng Meng's development."

The voice from the phone was almost cold and ruthless.

"This is the rule of the circle. Today I let you, tomorrow you let me. Wanting to get popularity without any cooperation is impossible."

"Not just Xi Sister Meng Ze, Jin Li, you will also encounter this kind of thing in the future. Prepare yourself psychologically in advance."

Jin Li gripped her phone tightly, and it took a long time to recover, saying in a low voice:

"Sister Fang, if covering up my strength and manipulating netizens' emotions is what it takes to get popularity, then I'd rather not have this popularity."

"This is not a question of hype or not. Why should people with real strength be buried, and a script of a comeback and counterattack be played out in a roundabout way?"

"This hype ecosystem is sick, seriously sick!"

After saying this, Jin Li hung up the phone.

She understood what Sister Fang meant.

It's not the first time the circle has "abused the protagonist" to stir up popularity.

But she still wasn't used to it.

Pink Girl all came from hardship. At that time, wanting to get ahead only required desperate effort, more effort, and even more effort.

Every day was lived with great hope.

But now?

You only need to hype it up. Those without strength can be packaged as having strength, those with fake academic qualifications can say they are top students, and high-popularity idols taking a photo with a trash can at a street stall can become a check-in point...

Jin Li shook her head, couldn't understand it, and didn't want to understand it.

She couldn't manage others, but at least when it's her turn, she doesn't have to suffer this grievance.

After all, everyone is no longer in the period where they have to swallow all the bitterness and exhaustion. Having finally fought to a certain status, one should be willful when one should be willful.

Isn't the status fought for with hardship just to let oneself gain more say in the circle?

Jin Li opened WeChat and poked Meng Meng.

Carp: 【I support you. Do whatever you want. At worst, quit the competition. It doesn't matter.】

【Don't they want popularity?】

【Exactly, if you quit the competition, the popularity will be even higher!】

【Don't be sad anymore. Reply to my message quickly. I'll push Director Zhong Wentai to you. He wants to find you to sing a movie promotional song!】

Xi Sister Meng Ze locked herself in the room, curled up in the quilt, tossing and turning like a pancake.

Her breath is not smooth, very angry, ah ah ah ah!

Want to explode!!!

She couldn't help but pick up her phone and open the blog.

Outside came Sui Lingfang's voice, who had been persuading her not to make things so stiff with the production team, saying she had also gained many benefits from this time, and so on.

Hmm, what she said makes sense!

But it couldn't stop her from still being very angry, angry like a pufferfish, poisoning all the villains!!

#Xi Sister Meng Ze at the bottom, seventh place! #

#Xi Sister Meng Ze leaves angrily#

#Xi Sister Meng Ze demands a vote check#

#Fans speak out for Xi Sister Meng Ze! #

Usually when the competition ends, only one hot search appears. This time, falling to the bottom actually led to four hot searches.

Xi Sister Meng Ze twitched the corner of her mouth, pulling out a sneer: "What a big scene."

She flipped through the comments.

The good ones were saying she and the production team had a conflict, she shouldn't have fallen to last place, she performed so well this time, she definitely could have entered the top three, she was sacrificed by the production team.

The bad ones were saying she was cooperating with the production team to hype, the script was disgusting, she would definitely make a comeback next season, saying Pineapple TV just likes to do this kind of thing.

Xi Sister Meng Ze only felt that whether it was good or bad, it was all quite fake.

She actually didn't need others' sympathy and pity, and she wouldn't care about the malicious belittling on the internet.

She just wanted to participate in a program normally. Why is it so difficult?

Sui Lingfang was still persuading her earnestly outside the door.

Telling her not to be stubborn with the production team, if there is a next time, she doesn't need to explode, Chenxi Entertainment will take the initiative to propose contract termination with the production team.

Xi Sister Meng Ze brushed the comments unconsciously, still wanting to turn herself into a pufferfish.

With a "ding-dong" sound, the phone received a message.

Only people she specially followed would send a notification sound.

She clicked it and saw the message Jin Li sent her. Her mood was slightly happy. At critical moments, her own little sister is still reliable!

Xi Sister Meng Ze was about to answer when another "ding-dong" sound came. Yan Xingdong also sent her a message.

Yan Xingdong: 【"As the real daughter, I counterattack the entertainment industry"】

Yan Xingdong: 【"Reborn thirty years ago, I become the master of the entertainment industry!"】

Yan Xingdong: 【"Back to the past, I leap to become a shareholder of a large company!"】

Xi Sister Meng Ze couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Her heart felt a bit warm.

Xi Sister Meng Ze: 【Snicker. jpg】

Xi Sister Meng Ze: 【Although I don't really read this kind of counterattack novel, thank you for your recommendation!】

Yan Xingdong replied very quickly: 【I'll look for whether there are any comics that are both romantic and burning. I'll send them to you when I find them.】

Xi Sister Meng Ze: 【Don't, don't, don't. No need to look specifically for me. Look for what you like to read (snicker)】

Yan Xingdong: 【Hmm, they are all what I like to read.】

Xi Sister Meng Ze switched to Jin Li's chat interface and replied with an "OK."

Jin Li received the reply, breathed a slight sigh of relief, and rejoined the big group's video call.

"Don't worry, Meng Meng's mentality has been adjusted, and she will be fine."

Ji Qinglian: "That's good. Did she say how to solve it?"

Jin Li shook her head: "I don't know. No matter what decision she makes, I support her."

Chen Lin said in a low voice: "If you quit the competition because of anger now, it's too much of a loss. After all, the popularity has already been created."

Jin Li thought, if the production team had communicated with Meng Meng in advance and used this method to create a hit, Meng Meng definitely wouldn't have agreed.

But now they did it first and reported later. If she quit temporarily, Meng Meng indeed suffered a dumb loss.

If it were herself, she wouldn't know what to do either.

Compromise and cooperate with the promotion, or leave with a flick of the sleeves?

Jin Li decided not to think about this matter. It's better to find more opportunities to increase her popularity in the circle so that the production team won't dare to play with her easily.

At worst, just don't participate in Pineapple TV's program!

There are several TV stations that do variety shows. If this one doesn't work, change to another one. If none of them work, then don't participate in variety shows.

With their popularity, not participating in variety shows won't starve them to death. There are many ways to make money, and it doesn't necessarily have to be variety shows.

Jin Li said: "No matter what decision she makes, I support it. You don't need to repeat this matter. I think Meng Meng also knows what to do in her heart."

Others responded; they still understood this point.

Hanging up the big group chat, Jin Li opened her workbook and brushed up on physics problems for a while.

In acting, she was getting better and better.

In learning, she also had a feeling of entering the hall.

The more she wrote, the better her hand felt.

After supplementing the physics foundation, a door of knowledge full of treasures opened in front of her.

Jin Li felt that she went to the ocean of knowledge every day to pick up treasures, and every catch was a net of interesting physics formulas.

She didn't want to become a physicist and had no pioneering spirit for physics. Just the laws and formulas discovered by everyone were enough for her to ponder for a long, long time.

I don't know how long it had been, Gu Cheng gave her a video call, and Jin Li answered it casually.

Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows and said with great interest: "Doing problems?"

Jin Li said "hmm" twice, spun her pen, and said without lifting her head: "Otherwise?"

Gu Cheng: "I just returned to the dormitory and heard about Xi Sister Meng Ze's matter. I thought you would be chatting with her."

Jin Li smiled: "She is older than me and doesn't need my comfort. She will adjust herself well. If she is really suffocated, online chatting won't do anything. She will take the initiative to find others to play with."

Seeing that she was still in the mood to smile, Gu Cheng also guessed that this matter didn't count for much to them, so he said:

"It's been a long time since I did problems. Why don't we do a set of test papers together and see who finishes faster and who has a higher score?"

Jin Li's expression stirred.

In the past, she definitely wouldn't have agreed to Gu Cheng, but now times are different.

Having made up for her basic knowledge, she had been doing physics problems more and more smoothly recently, with a high accuracy rate and faster speed.

In short, she became inflated!

Jin Li agreed readily: "Okay, let's compare. Which set?"

Gu Cheng flipped through the workbook in his hand; he and Jin Li used the same set. "Let's do the set on page 153, high school physics comprehensive test. I won't bully you either; let's just do high school knowledge points."

Jin Li gave a light snort and said with a beaming face: "I don't need you to let me!

Recently I have been learning high school physics, and I found that it is all deduced from basic knowledge. I have memorized all the theorem formulas, and learning is twice the result with half the effort."

Gu Cheng supported: "666, then after you finish filming, are you going to finish all the high school physics knowledge?"

Jin Li raised her head, puffed out her chest, waved her hand heroically: "I'll try my best!"

Gu Cheng moved his eyes away calmly.

Hmm, visual inspection... cough cough.

He waved away the lascivious thoughts in his mind and competed with Jin Li.

Gu Cheng was doing the test paper on the dining table, while Yan Xingdong and the others were active in the living room, using the TV to catch up on tonight's "I Am a Singer."

Chen Lin saw it, turned the volume down, and spoke softly.

He touched Yan Xingdong and said in a low voice: "Captain, you don't care. If Orange continues like this, he will lose me! He is too unsociable!"

Yan Xingdong glanced at him: "You stinky man, what does he want you for?"

He pushed Chen Lin's head away in disgust: "Get out of the way, don't lean on me, it's too hot!"

Chen Lin was speechless.

He took out his phone, clicked on WeChat with Qi Guan Mingzhu, and complained to her daily about being bullied by his teammates again.

Isn't there a saying like that.

Women who act like spoiled brats have the best fate.

He privately thinks that men who can act like spoiled brats also have a good fate.

Righteous face. jpg

Jin Li guessed it was about right.

If Xi Sister Meng Ze was really depressed, she would run out to play by herself.

The next day, she left Lake Province and flew to East City to reunite with Qi Guan Mingzhu, and the two went to see the comic exhibition together.

Some netizens discovered them, took group photos with them, and after uploading them to the internet, marketing accounts wrote one after another:

【Unafraid of influence! Xi Sister Meng Ze and her good sister play together!】

【What is the reason for Xi Sister Meng Ze's good mood?!】

【If you can't talk, just abandon it! Xi Sister Meng Ze quits "I Am a Singer"!】

Marketing accounts gossip, and netizens also gossip.

【Didn't they say they were going to check the votes before? Any inside information revealed? Why didn't the usual "I work at XX in the entertainment industry" show up?】

【The inside story is that it was checked, there was no problem, Xi Sister Meng Ze didn't pursue it, but she didn't care about the production team either. She didn't communicate with the production team. It is said that even her contact person couldn't contact her.】

【Is she not giving face like that?】

【People aren't participating in this program, they still have a lot of face.】

And the fact is—

Xi Sister Meng Ze had already discussed it with Sister Fang last night, wanting to give herself a vacation and go out for a trip.

She also thought it through. No matter how "I Am a Singer" wants to hype, she won't care. She didn't have the desire to win in the first place. They can do whatever they want, and give her whatever ranking they want.

She chose to take the variety show. If she can continue recording, she will continue singing, but she will be more open-minded than before.

Seeing that she thought it through, Sui Lingfang also said: "Okay, I will communicate with the production team later. You can rest assured and travel."

She knows the rules of the entertainment industry well, but she is still more partial to her own artists.

"If you don't want to pay attention, then don't. Leave everything to me. If Pineapple calls you, don't answer any of them, just say you are communicating and docking with me."

Xi Sister Meng Ze: "Okay."

She asked curiously: "Sister Fang, what do you plan to do?"

Sui Lingfang sneered: "As long as the money is enough, I won't explode."

Xi Sister Meng Ze agreed: "That's the truth. Now I feel that only money can soothe my injured soul."

With Chenxi Entertainment as the big rear, Xi Sister Meng Ze came out to play without any burden.

As for singing?

Wait until Wednesday to think about it. There are still five days left!

With her ability, two days are enough to practice.

Netizens and marketing accounts didn't know what Xi Sister Meng Ze was planning. This one guessed and that one guessed, all feeling she was going to quit the competition.

Spreading around, even the director of "I Am a Singer" thought Xi Sister Meng Ze was going to quit the competition and called her personally.

And Xi Sister Meng Ze?

Her phone was turned off, and no one could get through.

She took out another backup phone and hid beautifully.

Heaven and earth are big, I am the biggest!

In the "Dream Builders" crew, Jin Li's filming results were gratifying.

She understood He Hui more and more.

As the research progress became faster and faster, reaching the later stage, although everyone was tired, they were all very excited. The fruits of victory were right in front of them!

He Hui's mood was also very high, but at this time, she found that her body had some problems.

She had been coughing these days. In order not to delay the progress, she only ran to the hospital to get some cough medicine when the coughing wasn't serious, and didn't do a detailed check.

It was because she took too much medicine that the doctor felt something was wrong, asked others, and found that she had been coughing for a long time.

The doctor frowned and said seriously: "Engineer He, I cannot give you this medicine. You must go to a big hospital for a detailed check."

He Hui waved her hand and said lightly: "It's okay, my body can still hold up. The project has reached the later stage. Just a little bit more, and we can make a hydrogen bomb."

The doctor said: "No, your body is more important."

He Hui put on a straight face: "How my body is, I know myself. Don't talk nonsense, give me some cough medicine."

Being able to become a team leader, although her temper is soft, she also has a sense of majesty.

The doctor said helplessly: "I am not your team member. I have to be responsible for your body. You have coughed for too long. You must go to a big hospital for a checkup so I can prescribe the right medicine. Every one of you is a treasure of the country, I—"

He Hui said softly: "I know you are doing it for my own good, but I know my body myself. There really is nothing big, just open some cough medicine."

After speaking, she started coughing again.

The doctor hurriedly pulled a tissue for her.

He Hui coughed as if she wanted to cough her lungs out. Some people cough severely and break their ribs.

Jin Li's performance corresponded to this state. Just looking at it, everyone felt painful, and their hearts couldn't help but tighten.

"Cut!"

Zhong Wentai looked at the lens and said: "Reshoot a few movements."

The reshoot was completed quickly, and Jin Li went to a cool place to rest.

Chen Qin didn't know where she found a large fan that could hold ice cubes, specially moved it to the set, placed it in a cool place, and connected it with a power strip.

As soon as Jin Li rested, she turned on this large fan.

The midsummer of August is not a joke. It is at least 33°C every day, and during the high-temperature period in the afternoon, it can break through to 35°C.

If you film an ancient costume drama at this time, the actors will probably get heat rash.

Jin Li is okay, filming a modern drama, but to fit the scene, the indoor scenes also cannot turn on the air conditioning, which is also very hot.

Blown by this ice fan, the body is cool.

Comfortable!

The fan brings water, so she doesn't dare to blow it at the expensive camera equipment, but it's fine to blow it at people.

Jin Li asked curiously: "Where did you get this fan?"

Chen Qin said: "It was placed in the crew's warehouse. Originally, the logistics department bought this kind of fan, but because the crew couldn't touch water, it was left idle."

"I moved it over to use. The ice cubes are my own. I specially filled a large cup with ice and brought it over in a thermos."

Jin Li said: "This fan looks quite heavy. You must be tired."

Chen Qin shook her head: "It's okay. You are filming, and I have nothing to do. Moving the fan is fine."

Xu Wenwen sat on the other side and looked at her assistant when she saw this.

The assistant blew a small fan herself, and the other hand lifted another small fan to blow at her.

When looking at her, she was very confused and blinked at her.

Xu Wenwen:...

Why is her assistant so stupid?

Xu Wenwen sighed silently in her heart. Forget it, you can't expect someone to hold you in their heart just because they receive an ordinary salary.

Xu Wenwen took the initiative to walk toward Jin Li, openly avoiding the heat.

"Jin Li, according to the current progress, will your scenes be finished next month?" She asked.

Anyway, she herself will definitely be finished next month.

Jin Li pondered and said: "If Director Zhong doesn't have a sudden whim to repeatedly polish a detail, it should be finished in September."

The current filming progress has reached 2/3. ===== CHAPTER 164 =====

The current filming progress has already reached two-thirds.
