The incident began when the marketing account "Xiao A Entertainment," which had previously announced the new spokesperson for Fobana, posted another Weibo post containing a 5-minute video.
A clear recording in the video shows that Jiang Yixing's performance was interrupted twice in just five minutes, from the start of her performance until He Mang interrupted her.
Xiao A later added audio, "I was originally quite looking forward to the newcomer's acting skills, after all, she was the one who single-handedly defeated Li Yuxiang and Yu Jing."
"But Xiao A was really disappointed after watching this video. She doesn't know how Jiang Yixing was selected."
The video went viral, leaving netizens extremely disappointed in Jiang Yixing.
"What?! Is this Jiang Yixing's acting? Is Langgo going to go bankrupt and they need her as their spokesperson?"
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but aren't Yu Jing and Li Yuxiang both better than her?"
"A new generation of pretty faces! The entertainment industry needs to get rid of these useless people!"
The higher the expectations people had for Jiang Yixing, the greater their disappointment naturally became.
Jiang Yixing previously broke through the crowd with a video of his act of bravery, leaving a deep impression on netizens and receiving very good reviews from mainstream media, making it one of the most legendary examples of breaking out of the entertainment industry.
Jiang Yixing is, after all, an actress, and now it's been revealed that her acting skills are extremely poor. No matter what, it's problematic if she can't do her job well.
Netizens naturally felt that their previous good impression of Jiang Yixing, which they only had a superficial understanding of, had turned to ashes. Once Jiang Yixing's character is made more three-dimensional, she is no longer just a character in social news about good deeds, but a newcomer who has just entered the entertainment industry and whose acting skills are not very good.
When it comes to celebrities in the entertainment industry, netizens have never hesitated to use their most outlandish speculations.
"This must have been done through back channels, right?"
"Something fishy is going on. Is it someone related to the brand owner?"
"Heh, you didn't use some improper relationship, did you?"
Malicious speculation followed and quickly gained traction in the comments section.
Zhang Meng has left the film set and rushed to the company to deal with the public opinion.
The head of the publicity department pulled out a stack of data. "Take a look at this first. I suspect there's someone pulling the strings behind the scenes."
Several relatively unknown marketing accounts released the video at the same time, with Xiao A Entertainment being the most well-known. Moreover, the video was released in the morning, and in less than half a day, it had already gone viral online.
Zhang Meng couldn't help but suspect that paparazzi had infiltrated the film set, but the video's clarity was simply not like it had been secretly filmed.
Jiang Yixing knew best whether he had infiltrated the paparazzi or not.
If other cameras were also secretly taking pictures during the shoot, she would definitely notice immediately.
But nothing like that happened, so there were definitely no paparazzi on set. As for what was going on inside the set, that remains unknown.
Zhang Meng also suspected that it was an inside job.
Jiang Yixing had only been filming for a day. If he wanted to bribe someone on the inside, he would have to work on it many days in advance. Who knew that Jiang Yixing was going to film many days in advance?
Zhang Meng naturally suspected people in the entertainment industry, as only they could be so well-informed.
The publicity manager then asked, "How's the filming going on set?"
"It's not as exaggerated as it appears in the video. Jiang Yixing may not have liked the filming the first time, but by the afternoon, she had done it all in one take."
"That's good. Could you ask the brand to provide the video recording from this afternoon?"
Zhang Meng frowned. "It's just that this place is inconvenient."
“The promotional video must not be leaked. Some of it has already circulated online, which is a breach of contract.” Zhang Meng flipped through the papers in his hand. “Luckily, all of them have been deleted or modified, otherwise we might have faced a lawsuit.”
"How about letting the director say something?" the publicity manager suggested.
“He Mang?” Zhang Meng frowned. “He doesn’t usually give interviews.”
