Chapter 449: A premonition of a bloodbath
This long-winded Weibo post, once published, ignited the powder keg once again, making the public opinion online as lively as a boiling pot.
Those enthusiastic netizens who were originally filled with righteous indignation and stood up for Zhou Shishi turned their spears toward Zhou Shishi and Guo Zhihao instead.
"Delete the posts immediately! The manager has resigned, but aren't there others in the PR department?" Guo Zhihao's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared like a beast: "What about the deputy manager? Tell him that he is now promoted to manager. I don't care what method he uses, he must clear all negative news about Zhou Shishi and me from the internet within an hour!"
"But... there are simply too many posts, they can't be deleted at all..." The secretary was very conflicted.
This is the internet age; Yuanbei Media can no longer cover people's mouths at will.
Not to mention that the PR manager's Weibo post couldn't be deleted, even if it were, other fans would copy the screenshots and repost them.
As for the comments online scolding Zhou Shishi and Guo Zhihao, they were even more endless no matter how much they were deleted.
Moreover, once they discovered their posts had been deleted, they would only become more furious and focus all their firepower on scolding, which was no different from adding fuel to the fire.
Nowadays, Zhou Shishi is not only shouted at by everyone, but even the evidence of her previous plastic surgery and entering hotels with men has been dug up, and she has been subjected to all kinds of curses again.
And just when Qingguo Music was busy and overwhelmed, under the urging of countless netizens, Apple Audio-Visual released the second trailer.
After this trailer was released, it was once again brushed onto the hot search by fans.
"Why didn't I notice before that Murong Xue had a dark-bellied attribute... Ahhhhh... The younger sister is so cool!"
"Yeah, I didn't expect my sister to be able to play a rookie police officer."
"These two are really a perfect match! The people next door are still playing the old-fashioned drama of snatching men; isn't it better to see our beauties focus on their careers?"
"Who says you can't fall in love while focusing on your career? I feel they are quite a match."
"How is this eye makeup of Nie Jingjing drawn? My eye shape is similar to hers, and if the eye makeup isn't drawn well, it looks very fierce."
"Within five minutes, I want to know all the information about this makeup artist. Nie Jingjing can even turn into a little white rabbit; this is simply a divine pen!"
In fact, hyping a lesbian CP and reversing the roles of justice and villain is not a new project.
But many people imitate it, yet few are of high quality.
Coupled with Xu Tian arranging for Murong Xue to play an undercover agent and Nie Jingjing to play a police officer, this huge contrast with their own personalities could naturally arouse the interest of passersby.
As for the fans, they would naturally pay for whatever these two filmed, and if the effect was good, they would desperately act as unpaid promoters.
After the two trailers came out, the response was naturally as Xu Tian expected, directly occupying the top spot on the entertainment hot search.
And it wasn't just Nie Jingjing and Murong Xue who received attention; even their makeup and hairstyles were scrambled to be imitated by young girls, and even the clothes in the drama were bought out within a few days.
As the costume and styling artist for Nie Jingjing and Murong Xue in the drama, Yan Qingxue also experienced the taste of being in the spotlight. Not only did her Weibo gain more than 100,000 followers, but people also left messages and private messages every day asking her to release makeup tutorials.
At the same time, along with the trailer, a candid photo that couldn't be counted as a portrait also became popular.
The photo shows Xu Tian, Nie Jingjing, Murong Xue, and Yan Qingxue discussing the plot on the set.
In the photo, Xu Tian only has a side profile; he is holding the script and reminding Nie Jingjing and Murong Xue about filming precautions, while Yan Qingxue is standing behind Murong Xue adjusting her hairstyle.
This photo was posted by Tian Jing on her private Weibo, with the caption "Star Era Quartet," and she also tagged the official Weibo of Star Era.
At this time, Xu Tian's company had just been registered, and apart from the verification, the Weibo was bare and had nothing. The hundreds of followers were also zombie fans randomly stuffed in by the system.
But because fans had been squatting under Tian Jing's Weibo during this period, begging for behind-the-scenes footage, this Weibo was seen by fans as soon as it was posted.
"What is Star Era? Is it the sister's new company?"
"Ahhhhh! Our little Xue is so good-looking!"
"Who is that handsome guy with only half a face? Is he the male lead?"
"That's not right, didn't Director Tian also tag Star Era? It should be someone from the company..."
"Then is it only left with Sister Jingjing's agent?"
"Wow! So Sister Jingjing's agent is a handsome guy! No wonder Sister Jingjing wanted to terminate the contract with him!"
"The person upstairs, there should be a limit to being a fan, right? Sister Jingjing terminated the contract because she was bullied by the company, and this current agent is helpful to her development, not because he is handsome, okay? Do you think Sister Jingjing is a love-struck fool!"
Nie Jingjing laughed out loud when she saw this comment while scrolling through Weibo.
"When I chose Mr. Xu, it really wasn't for the future."
Xu Tian:...
You'd better not say this, at least not in front of the fans.
"But Brother Xu, is it okay to post such a photo? Our company has just started. If we are targeted by Guo Zhihao and the others..." Murong Xue thought further ahead, worried that Guo Zhihao would retaliate if he knew they had opened a company.
"It's fine. Director Tian came to ask for my opinion before, and it was I who let her post the photo. It counts as advance publicity."
Xu Tian took a sip of tea and explained.
The fact that they established a new company would be announced sooner or later, so it's better to announce it by taking advantage of this cooperation with Apple Audio-Visual.
However, what he didn't expect was that it was just an ordinary photo, yet the popularity was quite high.
"I will post an official announcement on Weibo in a while, you all go and repost it."
"Mr. Xu, some fans want to see your face." Nie Jingjing held up her phone and read the comments: "Why don't you post one?"
Xu Tian didn't speak, just gave her a faint glance.
Yet Nie Jingjing was thick-skinned and continued to speak.
"Actually, Mr. Xu, you are so handsome, it's a pity not to debut."
"So you mean you want me to debut and change your agent by the way?" Xu Tian never had the idea of debuting; it was quite good to be behind the scenes, and he didn't have much interest in acting or singing.
The most important thing is that if he became an actor, I'm afraid the vinegar jar of that person in his family would be overturned.
"That's absolutely not allowed!" Nie Jingjing shook her head repeatedly when she heard about changing agents: "Mr. Xu, I think you are quite good as an agent, you don't need to debut!"
"Don't ever give up being an agent!" As if afraid that Xu Tian would run away, she added.
"Even if I don't want to do it, I can't afford a new agent to lead you at the moment." Xu Tian slapped a stack of singing technique materials in front of Nie Jingjing: "Memorize the materials during this period. Although you are not an expert judge, you must also understand basic vocal knowledge."
"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." Nie Jingjing picked up the materials confidently and flipped through them, but immediately her face turned bitter: "But this is too much..."
Xu Tian rubbed his eyebrows; he had already foreseen the bloodbath after Nie Jingjing went on the variety show. ===== CHAPTER 450 =====
