Gu Luo has a more solid fan base, with both good looks and talent. Her status as a prospective Olympic athlete brings her a special aura, and her female fans span all age groups. They are well-organized and have strong spending power.
Not to mention, a whole bunch of other celebrity fans who were previously dragged down by his brainless fans have now all joined the "attack" against him, making him truly universally hated.
Looking at these one-sided online battles, Zhao Shuo felt not overly panicked, but rather a strange sense of certainty. Tang Qi and Lin Yilin couldn't possibly be unaware of such a fierce media storm, and they couldn't possibly not step in to put pressure on him. Yet, even now, Xingyue Entertainment still hasn't asked him to step in and quell the situation, instead tacitly approving the fans' behavior.
This shows that Boss Wang Guangtou really did withstand the pressure from those two mountains!
"...The boss really is a wolf in sheep's clothing! He must have a powerful backer behind him!" Zhao Shuo gripped his phone tightly, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
The previous doubts vanished instantly, leaving only the anticipation of an unknown support.
The more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. Otherwise, given Baldy's opportunistic nature, he would have pushed him out as a scapegoat long ago. How could he still dare to confront Tang Qi and his wife?
Just then, a bold, almost insane idea grew wildly in his mind like weeds—to gamble everything and capitalize on the situation for hype!
If he were to publicly stand up now, stand with his fans in solidarity, and clearly express his support for them, those fanatical and brainless fans would surely be completely moved, turning from "fighting fans" into devoted and loyal fans. In ancient times, they would be like warriors willing to go through fire and water for him!
More importantly, by leveraging the popularity of Luo Shu Ning and Gu Luo, his own exposure will increase exponentially.
So what if it's negative publicity?
In the entertainment industry, popularity reigns supreme; even negative publicity is still publicity!
As long as there's buzz, there will be topics, and resources will come knocking.
This is a perfect opportunity to turn a crisis into an opportunity!
“
Danger and opportunity coexist... Let's gamble!
Zhao Shuo gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, opened the chat box with Wang Guangtou, and sent his thoughts in a tactful way, his words conveying the intention to "leverage the situation to boost his popularity," while also implying his willingness to cooperate with any arrangements made by the company.
Meanwhile, in a private room at a hotel in Beijing, Wang Guangtou had just seen Lin Yilin off and was rubbing his throbbing temples in worry when he saw the message from Zhao Shuo. His vision went black, and he cursed inwardly, "Idiot."
He really didn't expect Zhao Shuo to be so brave. Even at this point, he was still thinking about creating hype. He was simply asking to die sooner.
But then he thought about it again. He was caught in the middle, suffering from both Shen Qingling and Lin Yilin, and was about to give up. In addition, he was already convinced that Zhao Shuo was Shen Qingling's man, so maybe this was at Shen Qingling's behest.
Thinking of this, Wang Guangtou didn't bother to think any further. He typed four words on the screen with his fingertips—"Go for it"—and sent it directly.
Anyway, if the sky falls, Shen Qingling will hold it up. He's just a small company owner; he can just follow along.
Zhao Shuo stared at his phone screen, and the moment he saw those four words, he suddenly jumped up from the sofa, his heart pounding wildly, and his breathing became rapid.
"As expected! There really is a big shot behind the boss!" He paced back and forth excitedly, swallowed hard, and opened the Weibo app.
I took a deep breath, edited the Weibo post, and after much deliberation, finally typed out a line.
@LuoShuning — [I will always be with my fans who love me]
Although the words were phrased euphemistically, the underlying sense of taking sides and the hostile tone were clear to anyone following this controversy.
The moment he clicked send, Zhao Shuo's heart almost stopped beating.
A few seconds later, his Weibo comment section exploded.
His die-hard fans, as if granted a royal decree, stormed in, their comments section filled with unanimous support—
[My husband is so strong! We'll always stand with you!]
[My dear husband, I love you forever!]
Anyone who dares to bully our husbands, we'll fight them to the death!
[...]
Seeing the rapidly refreshing comments, Zhao Shuo's lips involuntarily curled upwards, his eyes filled with smugness and greed.
He knew he had made the right bet.
Now, all the recent attention and buzz will be focused on him.
As for whether it will offend more people or provoke Tang Qi's retaliation... with the "big shot" behind the boss backing him up, what is there to be afraid of?
Zhao Shuo leaned back on the sofa, swiping his finger across the screen, enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by fans.
Completely unaware that his desperate publicity stunt had only made him a more ridiculous pawn in the girls' power struggles.
