Simply put, posting a picture on Weibo that looks similar to the clothing and makeup of the cult leader seems too deliberate, as if it's a deliberate attempt to say: "Everyone come and take a look, don't I look good with this character in the book? Don't I fit the character perfectly?"
As a result, some people will definitely go to the official page of the show and post pictures.
The official auditions haven't even started yet, so this behavior is tantamount to forced sales. If Rong Yu isn't selected during the audition, she'll definitely be ridiculed, and the official side won't be able to say anything. In the end, it will make both sides unhappy and greatly damage Rong Yu's image in the eyes of the public.
Public appeal is neither important nor unimportant, because the general public doesn't care how many albums an artist or celebrity they don't follow has released, what products they've endorsed, or what dramas they've acted in. Most of the sales of a celebrity's endorsements, advertisements, autographed items, and dramas are driven by fans. Fans are the main consumers of the artist's endorsed products and prints, and they are also the main force behind the artist's promotion.
However, public image is also very important. When something really happens, the power of the general public is often much greater than that of fans. Artists with good public image can also have a good reputation in the entertainment industry.
Although Yin Chengjue did not say it explicitly, he had been discussing with Sally to cultivate a more positive image for Rong Yu and improve her public image.
This kind of thing can't be done well in one or two dynamic events; it requires a steady, long-term, and meticulous approach.
Therefore, even such details should be carefully considered.
“The game company’s promotion is just a gimmick. I can first issue a verbal production plan, and then try to start a character impersonation show, where everyone can participate in character makeup activities.” Yin Chengjue found it more and more feasible as he spoke, and immediately wrote it down in his phone’s notepad.
That evening, Yin Chengjue posted on Weibo, expressing his thoughts in a casual, everyday manner.
The next day, Sally, upon learning of Yin Chengjue's plan, brought her makeup artist and stylist to Rong Yu for a makeover.
While the makeup artist and stylist were working on Rong Yu, Yin Chengjue stood outside, waiting for Rong Yu's look and makeup to be completed so he could see it as soon as possible.
However, while he was waiting, his phone suddenly rang, and an unfamiliar text message popped up.
When Yin Chengjue saw the unfamiliar number, he thought it was some spam text message and clicked on it to delete it. But when he looked closer, he realized that the content sent by the unfamiliar number was quite substantial.
Anonymous: Do you want to know who your real father is?
Upon seeing this string of words, Yin Chengjue raised an eyebrow slightly. Before he could think about it further, another message popped up from the same number.
Anonymous: If you don't want your mother's sordid deeds from back then to be exposed, immediately transfer ten million to this account.
Sure enough, a string of accounts was attached at the end.
Yin Chengjue still ignored it. Upon seeing these two sentences, only one thought flashed through Yin Chengjue's mind—if I really am not Feng Chengda's son, then I'll buy a few more rolls of firecrackers to set off today.
Although such thoughts were somewhat tarnishing of his mother's character, Yin Chengjue couldn't hide his excitement at the thought of being able to completely sever ties with Feng Chengda.
As Yin Chengjue began to daydream, the stranger who wrote the letter couldn't contain himself any longer.
Anonymous: Yin Chengjue, I'm not joking with you. Hurry up and transfer the money, or you'll be waiting to see online how your mother carried a bastard child and made an honest man take the fall for her!
Yin Chengjue: Wait a minute.
Yin Chengjue quickly sent two words.
After sending it, Yin Chengjue quickly became annoyed. This was a text message, not WeChat; sending a message in several parts was very expensive!
Therefore, Yin Chengjue will try to type more words in the next sentence.
Yin Chengjue: Don't rush to post it. Let me have my assistant go downstairs to the store and buy a few more rolls of firecrackers. Then I'll hire more online trolls. As soon as you post this message, I'll have the trolls create hype and push it to the top of the trending topics. We need to make sure everyone knows about this message.
Also, do you have DNA evidence? I mean, the kind of irrefutable proof that I have absolutely no connection with Feng Chengda. If you do, please post it. If you don't, I can... Ah, I would never forge it for you. Such deceptive behavior is unacceptable. If it gets back to me later, I won't take the blame. You'll have to take the blame yourself. Um, what I mean is, if it can be proven that I have no blood relation with him, and given his past neglect of my upbringing, I won't have to bear the responsibility of supporting him in the future.
Of course, this is on the condition that it can be proven that he and I are not related. If this proof is false, then I'm sorry, the responsibility is yours, since you were the one who released the information.
Well, that's all I wanted to say. Is there anything else I need to add?
Oh right, about my mom, I can only regretfully say that since she's my mom, not the other way around, I can't go back in time and come out of her belly to stop her, no matter what she did back then. Even if I could come out, I couldn't possibly suggest that she abort me, right?
So, you're threatening the wrong person. I can't possibly condemn my mom for this, because I was the one she was carrying. No matter whose child I am, I am who I am. If I condemn my mom, I'm denying myself. If I blame my mom for her behavior, I'm denying my own birth. It's a paradox!
Do you understand what I mean?
Anonymous: ...
Yin Chengjue: Actually, I would like to offer my friendly advice: you can use this information to threaten my biological father if this person really isn't Feng Chengda.
Anonymous: ...You said it yourself. I hope your biological father won't be too alarmed after seeing this news.
Upon seeing this, Yin Chengjue frowned slightly. Could it be that this person really has evidence? Is he truly not related to Feng Chengda by blood?
Soon, the anonymous person sent the next message.
Anonymous: Haven't you ever thought about why Yin Qiushi is still all alone? With his abilities and Yin Changhong's support, what kind of woman wouldn't he have? Yet he's remained single until now, wholeheartedly managing the Yin family business. As an adopted son, he's an outsider in the Yin family's bloodline. If he just put in a little more effort, as long as he wasn't too incompetent, the Yin family would definitely fall into his hands in the end. So why is he working so hard? To build an empire that doesn't belong to him?
Anonymous: Everyone is speculating about his motives. Is it just because of Yin Changhong's years of nurturing? No, but the truth is simple: he did all this not for others, but for you.
Anonymous: Because he is your biological father! He has been paving the way for you all these years!
Yin Chengjue: I am 26 years old now.
Anonymous: ...?
Yin Chengjue: To be honest, the reason my uncle didn't get married is because he had his tubal ligation done thirty years ago. I've seen his surgical report. In other words, if I really were his child, I would have survived in my mother's womb for at least four years, which is practically a medical miracle!
Anonymous: !!!
Yin Chengjue: Why don't you find someone else? I really can't accept the father you've chosen. I can send you money, but remember to find a handsome, refined man who looks like a business elite. That way, at least he'll look somewhat like my son.
Anonymous: ...
Yin Chengjue: I don't mean any harm by saying this, but my uncle's face... I'm not saying it's bad... Let me put it this way, if I grew a little more beard, I could be his brother. If I put a long women's wig on him, he could be my mom's best friend. I don't look exactly like Feng Chengda, but standing next to Feng Chengda, I at least look more like him than standing next to Yin Qiushi.
Otherwise, why do you think that after so many years of infighting within the Yin family, Feng Chengda never suspected that I was related to Yin Qiushi by blood? Because it's simply impossible!
After sending the last long message, there was no response for a long time. It was unclear whether the other party had really gone to find Yin Qiushi or had been banished by the wind.
Yin Chengjue looked back at the comments, but his expression gradually darkened.
He's lying. The claim that Yin Qiushi had a tubal ligation is nonsense. He just wanted to provoke this anonymous person and see if they would try to find him another "biological father" because of this.
If they actually come looking for him, it means he's a fraudster. If they insist it's Yin Qiushi...
Then it's necessary to confirm it.
Yin Chengjue quickly flipped through the phone book to the number with the three characters "Yin Qiushi" written on it. After hesitating for a moment, he dialed it anyway.
The call was answered quickly, and Yin Qiushi's tone was one of surprise: "That's rare, you actually took the initiative to call me."
"Yin Qiushi," Yin Chengjue called out the other person's name in a serious tone.
Yin Qiushi was clearly taken aback, and Yin Chengjue's tone made him serious: "Has something happened?"
Yin Chengjue: "Just now, he threatened me, saying that if I didn't do what he asked, he would expose the fact that you are my biological father."
"Pfft! Cough cough cough!..." A violent coughing sound came from the other end, accompanied by the concerned voice of Yin Qiushi's assistant, "President Yin? Are you alright?" Yin Qiushi repeatedly said that he was fine, and then said into the phone, "If I really am your biological father, how powerful must the Yin family bloodline be to allow you to perfectly avoid my facial features, face shape, curly hair, hair color, figure, and height?"
