Chapter 125



[A small... small gift? Is this a misunderstanding of what a "small" gift is? (Stunned)]

[I thought it was outrageous at first, but when I thought about who wrote it, it suddenly seemed quite normal...]

[(wiping tears) Lost... How can we even compete?! We were planning a raffle to celebrate Chao Chao's win, but then the two Yan bosses threw a wrench in the works. How can we even continue?!]

[Who else doesn’t know that Chao Chao’s family members are her biggest fans (dog head)]

[I'm dying of laughter. I still remember Chao Chao being forced by his family to watch the TV series he had filmed. Everyone sitting on the sofa was more excited than Chao Chao himself.]

The evening of the Golden Plum Blossom Awards ceremony is also an important marketing opportunity for major agencies.

Regardless of whether they win an award or not, each agency has a different plan.

If you win an award, you naturally have to brag about it, noting the value of the award and how difficult it is for an artist to win. At the same time, you should attach a large number of pre-prepared montages of acting clips and beautiful photos of the artist, and promote the award well. If you don't win an award, you should also release a retouched photo, accompanied by a sad but hopeful text, to stimulate fans and strengthen fan stickiness.

Often before the Golden Plum Blossom Awards results come out, every agency has prepared at least two plans.

However, all these marketing plans seem a little inferior to the hardcore "gift" prepared by the Yan family for Yan Chaochao.

This "hard-core" gift not only stunned netizens, but also made the colleagues who were sharpening their knives to attack the hot search to their knees.

Is there such a way to play?!

The street support in the first popular video is just a beginning, and far from the end.

Soon after this video became popular, netizens from all over the world sent in the "gifts" they had taken, including some from overseas regions.

From large LED screens between buildings to small advertising screens in elevators; from crowded commercial areas to small pubs on the street...

Just after midnight, Yan Chaochao posted a video using his own account.

In the video, the backs of four people standing side by side appeared. Before the audience could wonder who the people in the video were, with a "buzzing" sound, countless light spots flew up from different directions.

[Oh my god! What is this?!]

[These look like drones... but there are too many of them!]

As everyone watched in astonishment, countless drones were controlled to fly over the calm river surface and slowly formed a line of words in mid-air -

Congratulations to Yan Chaochao for winning the Golden Plum Blossom Award for Best Supporting Actress

As the drone formed the words, a stream of light flew into the air from the opposite side of the river. The light condensed into a light spot in the air. Then, with a clear "bang", the light spot spread out in the air. Thousands of dark blue light spots scattered from the air and slowly fell towards the center of the river.

But before the blue light spot completely landed, the next stream of light had already arrived in the air.

Under the grand blue fireworks, the congratulatory drones remained in the air. Amid the booming fireworks, netizens vaguely heard a familiar voice asking:

"Do you like it?"

The video ended abruptly when the fireworks burned out, but the audience in front of the live broadcast room were still excited for a long time.

Oh my god!

[Ahhhhhhhhh! I was wondering where Chao Chao went after the awards ceremony, but I didn't expect to be with my family right away (tears)]

[It turns out the biggest "gift" is here (tears streaming)]

What kind of idol drama plot is this? So many drones, and even a request for fireworks displays... This is going to be incredibly expensive, labor-intensive, and time-consuming...

[This scene clearly doesn't show their faces, but the four silhouettes under the fireworks and drone lights are so beautiful!]

When Yan Chaozhao released this video, he didn't write a single word, but only posted three emojis:

Fireworks, drones, and hearts.

After watching the video posted by Yan Chaozhao, everyone understood the meaning of these three emoticons.

On the night of the Golden Plum Blossom Awards, when Yan Chaochao was on the hot search list, a dark shadow appeared in the room, looking for information related to Yan Chaochao with his head down under a desk lamp.

Cheng Aotian has watched the clip of Yan Chaochao going on stage to receive the Golden Plum Blossom Award countless times.

The more high-spirited Yan Chaochao was on the stage, the deeper the regret in his heart.

Shen Yunran called him, but he didn't want to answer at all. He just said a few perfunctory words and hung up.

Now Shen Yunran came to him for two old things: she wanted to sign a contract with Cheng Aotian's company and to improve the relationship between the two of them.

If Shen Yunran's name had not been so widely condemned, and Cheng Aotian still had his previous position in the company, there might still be a possibility.

But now, ever since Shen Yunran’s actions were exposed and he was forced to leave the show “Growing Up Together”, the three words “Shen Yunran” have almost become a figure that everyone on the Internet is calling for to be punished.

Large platforms generally do not actively invite Shen Yunran for the sake of their own reputation; even if a program on a small platform wants to invite Shen Yunran, it has to consider whether it will be implicated and suffer uncontrollable negative public opinion because of inviting Shen Yunran.

As time went on, Shen Yunran fell into a cycle of "no announcements" and "declining popularity".

As for Cheng Aotian, he wasn't having a good time either. The NICE group was no longer the group they had just debuted with, when his popularity was soaring.

After Owen Bo's surge in popularity on "Growing Up Together," his popularity has surpassed Cheng Aotian's, and even his other teammates are vaguely approaching Cheng Aotian's. Unfortunately, Cheng Aotian himself is powerless to resist this situation.

During the time when Cheng Aotian was full of vigor and vitality after his debut, he never thought about Yan Chaochao, the person he broke up with.

On the contrary, when Shen Yunran's popularity was not as high as before and his popularity was also declining, he missed Yan Chaochao, who lived with him before his rebirth.

He opened the address book again and again, repeatedly looking at the name that was blacklisted, and hesitated to remove the name from the blacklist, but his finger stayed above the call button and he was reluctant to dial out.

Until a cat's meow was heard outside the window, Cheng Aotian's hand trembled and he directly pressed the call button that he had not seen for a long time.

The moment the ringtone rang, Cheng Aotian wanted to hang up, but his fingers remained frozen in the air.

During the few seconds when the bell rang, countless thoughts flashed through Cheng Aotian's mind.

Since the ringing was still going, did it mean that Yan Chaochao hadn't blocked him yet? Did it mean that there was still hope for him? Did it mean that maybe... Yan Chaochao hadn't let him go yet?

Holding on to a glimmer of hope, Cheng Aotian waited stiffly in the empty room.

Finally, the moment the phone was picked up, Cheng Aotian's eyes lit up, but before he could speak, a strange voice came from the other side -

"Hello? Who's that?"

Just a sound made Cheng Aotian completely stiffen as if he had been poured with cold water.

The person on the other end didn't hear a response, and impatiently said "Hello" twice, then hung up the phone mumbling.

"Are scammers so unprofessional these days..."

After the other party hung up completely, Cheng Aotian was the only one left in the room with his hands hanging stiffly.

Yan Chaochao did not block him, but just changed his mobile phone number, and he only kept Yan Chaochao's old mobile phone number.

At this moment, Cheng Aotian realized a fact very clearly -

There is no way for him and Yan Chaochao to go back to the past.

What lies ahead for him is a gradual decline in popularity, and he may never be able to reach the first line in his lifetime.

As for Chaochao, she just won the Golden Plum Blossom Award. With both awards and popularity, a smooth road lies ahead for her.

He could only watch Yan Chaochao climbing higher and higher.

In an instant, a terrifying thought emerged in Cheng Aotian's mind.

If what happened back then was discovered, the consequences would be...

The thought brought a look of fear to his eyes.

No! He absolutely couldn't let this happen!

While other audiences' attention was still focused on the Golden Plum Blossom Awards, Yan Chaochao was already in Fu Qianyi's studio, preparing for the final preparations for "Ark of the Ark".

When Yan Chaochao's fans were eagerly waiting, on Labor Day, Fu Qianyi suddenly posted a Starlight Blog and tagged Yan Chaochao——

【Fu Qianyi: Happy Labor Day to my fellow workers every day】
