Director Kim's 'good news' came very quickly.
Almost half a day after the two videos were released, Director Jin sent him a message via WeChat voice message, reminding Yu Ningning to quickly check the comments under that Weibo post, and sent a string of what could be described as arrogant laughter.
"Netizens these days are really sharp-tongued; they've really given Chu He a hard time. I think Chu He is going to end up shooting himself in the foot."
"That felt so good!"
Hearing Director Jin's extremely cheerful laughter, Yu Ningning also smiled and took the opportunity to open the Weibo comment page while she was applying a face mask.
It seems that Chu He has spent quite a bit of money on marketing for this matter.
It's just a dispute over the casting of the second male lead in a movie that hasn't even been released yet, but it somehow became a trending topic and garnered as many as 20,000 comments in just half a day.
That really cost a lot of money.
At least Yu Ningning is reluctant to part with it.
However, just as Director Jin said, Chu He's investment is going to backfire.
After Director Jin released two audition videos of Qin Shihuang and Chu He, and made an extremely 'sharp' comparison version, the comments were unanimously overwhelmingly negative.
—Of course, it's a one-sided situation that would cause Chuhe enough heart attack.
"Wow, the official statement is a slap in the face! No wonder it's Director Jin, his status in the industry is top-notch, that's why he dares to slap someone in the face like this. Chu He has really kicked a hornet's nest this time."
"He dares to mess with Director Jin? Chu He has really gotten too cocky these past few years."
"The main reason is that Chu He's appearance is particularly suitable for emperors. His portrayal of Qin Shi Huang was very popular, and many history buffs even said that he was the reincarnation of Qin Shi Huang. This probably makes Chu He very confident. I heard that he turned down the male lead role in a big production for the role of Qin Shi Huang. He put in so much effort, but in the end, he got nothing. It's inevitable that he would be a little upset."
"If you're not as skilled as others, you can't blame them!"
"...My goodness, stop talking about Chu He and come watch this video! This stark contrast is something I've never seen before!"
"...A complete annihilation! This was an absolute annihilation!"
"If I only looked at the introductions of these two people, I would definitely think that comparing them on the same level would be an insult to Chu He's many years of hard work. But after watching the video, I can only say to Chu He that he deserved to lose."
"I just find it so strange. That little actor named Qin Zheng didn't do anything wrong, so why do I involuntarily hold my breath and feel like I'm going to bow down to him the moment he sits on that dragon throne? Is there something wrong with me?"
"If Chuhe is like Qin Shi Huang, then Qin Zheng is Qin Shi Huang."
"Chu He lost so thoroughly, the production team is so cruel."
"I heard that Chu He started this provocation first? Then he deserves it this time..."
...
Bang--
Finally unable to hold back any longer, Chu He slammed his phone onto the hotel floor.
Serves him right?!
Some people actually said he deserved it?!
Fortunately, the hotel had thick carpets, so the phone didn't make much noise when it hit the ground, and it didn't even attract the attention of people outside.
With his head down, Chu He took two deep breaths before standing up again, picking up his phone from the ground, closing the Weibo page, and making a call to his agent.
"Hey, if I remember correctly, didn't Director Kim's movie crew hold a press conference recently?"
