I'm in good health. You'll know if you try.
Pei Xu sat in the passenger seat and looked at Jiang Lin sideways, comforting him: "I read your super topic last night, and the new personal endorsement is about to be officially announced. This is great news!"
"Boss Pei is always paying attention to me." Jiang Lin looked at him with slightly raised eyebrows, with a teasing tone.
"Haha, I thought someone would be very angry." Pei Xu said sarcastically, "Yeah, Peijia Village is a remote place where you can't even order takeout. How can it compare to the glamorous world of Beijing? Someone must have been dazzled."
Pei Xu was angry. When the second season was officially announced, he was only happy for a short while before he felt something was wrong because there was no movement in the group. He didn't understand the rules of the game in the entertainment industry, but he knew his brothers.
"The girls in Sanlitun are really attractive." Jiang Lin teased him, "I've been with you guys all day in Peijia Village, and my testosterone has also declined."
"We have delayed Young Master Jiang." Pei Xu turned his face away angrily, "Please take care of your health and don't overwork yourself, otherwise you may only have three minutes at such a young age."
"Three minutes?" Jiang Lin raised one corner of his mouth in disdain, "It will take at least an hour for me to be in battle."
"Yes." Pei Xu looked him up and down, and said proudly: "Mr. Jiang's mouth is much harder than a certain place."
"You'll know if you try it." Jiang Lin was stimulated by his words and subconsciously responded to him.
Pei Xu was stunned for a moment, then calmly teased: "I can't tell, Young Master Jiang is popular with both men and women."
"Yes." Jiang Lin looked like a playboy, and said happily: "It would be such a waste if I were to play pure love with this face."
Pei Xu rolled his eyes angrily.
Yuemuxiang's business director warmly received the teenagers and checked the process. Director Zhou looked a little guilty. Before the live broadcast started, he dismissed all irrelevant personnel, leaving only them in the guest room.
"Today is a good day. Yuemuxiang is very sincere." Director Zhou looked around at them and said politely, "The program team has grown together with you all and achieved mutual success. So, I hope everyone can be decent. I believe everyone knows what to do in the live broadcast room when selecting fan comments."
The teenagers have cursed Director Zhou countless times in private, but so what? He is just an employee.
Fans were still unaware of the program team's behind-the-scenes manipulation, and there was nothing unusual about the atmosphere in the live broadcast room of the Yuemuxiang brand event. Fans enthusiastically participated in the online event, and the popularity of the live broadcast room jumped to the top of the live broadcast popularity rankings. Sales continued to rise, and the same style as the teenager was sold out.
The president of the group's fan club and many big fans were informed of the inside story, and they reacted quickly and posted related posts on the super topic. The fans were completely outraged and excitedly demanded an explanation in the comment section of the program team's official Weibo. The topic of discussion quickly became more popular and ranked among the top three hot searches.
"Producing team, you have completely mastered the trick of crossing the river and destroying the bridge! When the makeshift team gets better, just replace us guys."
"You're so shameless to curse your mother while holding your rice bowl!"
"The money was borrowed by Jiang Lin, and the debt is borne by Pei Xu. The production team started with zero frames and made a lot of money. They put it in this talent show, right?"
"If the second season doesn't have the original cast, I suggest you don't bother filming it. I guarantee you'll be a total bummer."
"Agriculture is not something you can play with. Program crew, please stop being so ugly!"
"We only have one request, that the original crew record the second season, and we only recognize the six members of Mancang!"
"Brothers, you are really too honorable. The fruits of your hard work have been stolen. Program crew, are you descendants of Yuan Shikai?"
The dining table was piled high with vegetables and fruits, and the kitchen was filled with the smell of smoke.
Pei Xu was in a trance for a moment, as if he had returned to the days in the courtyard.
Li Xuran was peeling edamame while watching the real-time comments on Weibo refresh. His anger suddenly subsided and he said, "The little hamsters are so strong! The faces of the capitalists are really disgusting."
Cheng Enyue said as he ate some crayfish: "This is the trend in the industry. I auditioned for the third male lead in a low-budget drama. The director was very satisfied with me, but the day before I was about to sign the contract, I was told that I was replaced. The actor who replaced me was a relative who was forced in by the capital."
Jiang Lin turned off the faucet beside him and laughed disdainfully, "There are a lot of inside stories about talent shows. I was able to debut without any problems because of the crazy votes from my fans and my popularity. Others didn't have strong fan support, so the companies and investors behind them quietly worked hard to grab a debut spot. There was a contestant who got along well with me. With his popularity, he was firmly in the top three. Guess what happened?"
Pei Xu met his gaze and asked, "Did your ranking drop?"
"His debut spot was snatched away!" Jiang Lin was still a little angry. "He didn't make his debut. The company didn't care about him at all. He didn't have any resources or income. He could only sing in bars and stayed in the company for a few years until his contract ended."
Song Yifan frowned, bitterness welling up in his heart. He slowed down his action of brushing crayfish and said helplessly, "Isn't this my current situation? When I was a nobody, the company seemed dead. Now that I'm a little popular, they want to send me to the crew of an online drama to quickly cash in. The termination fee is high, and the termination will only make me lose a layer of skin."
Xiang Chuzhe took off his rubber gloves, patted his shoulder, and consoled him: "Our companies are all shitty. You can't even imagine that my shitty company has actually started to publicly sell my human-shaped standee, print autographed photos and other peripherals, and make money without limit."
Pei Xu put down the work in his hands, scrolled through the real-time comments, and asked: "Now the fans are defending your rights. Will this approach work?"
"It's a bit impractical." Jiang Lin turned on the tap to rinse the crayfish. "Our little hamsters are very powerful. Their huge number of live fans is a blessing that other families can't envy. Without their support, the popularity of the second season's premiere will be greatly reduced. However, this is also a purification operation by the program team. They won't care. After all, newcomers will also cultivate a group of new fans."
"Then don't even think about setting foot in Peijia Village." Jiang Lin tore the edamame shells vigorously. "My project is the same as mine. No strangers should get involved!"
"The chairman has spoken. Then I feel relieved." Cheng Enyue bent down and took out a large wok from the cupboard.
The voice on the phone was a little anxious. Dong slowly and leisurely exhaled a cloud of white smoke and said calmly: "Director Zhou, don't panic. Fans are just protesting. It won't amount to anything."
"Dong Zong, if we allow public opinion to ferment, the situation will be very unfavorable to us and it may affect our investment promotion."
"Director Zhou, we are the main sponsor of the program. Even if no brand joins, we have the financial resources to support the program. Don't worry."
Public opinion fermented on the Internet for several days. Instead of being weakened by the cold treatment of the program crew, the fans' fighting power became stronger and stronger, seizing the key points to attack. Director Zhou could no longer sit still and published a life-threatening article on the official account.
Pei Xu threw his phone on the sofa, not wanting to pack his luggage, and cursed: "Confusing right and wrong, how can a person be so shameless?"
Jiang Lin poked his head out of the kitchen and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you hungry? The bread will be ready in a while."
The statement praised the production and broadcasting platform throughout, thanked the sponsors and staff, and did not mention the teenagers at all. It emphasized that the program was successful because of its novel planning and subject matter, proper platform promotion, and strong support from sponsors, and that the program was good because the IP itself was good, and had nothing to do with the teenagers and fans.
The boys broke down together with their fans.
Li Xuran sat angrily on the sofa in the recording studio and cursed: "I feel sorry for Brother Xu and Brother Lin. They spend money and effort to help others!"
Jiang Lin was browsing his phone while holding a piece of bread and comforting Pei Xu: "Don't be angry, it's not worth it to get hurt. I'll take you to the airport after breakfast."
"I finally understand why you come here to farm!" Pei Xu pulled out a chair for him.
Jiang Lin smiled knowingly and asked, "What do you think, Dr. Pei?"
Pei Xu opened the lid of the jam bottle, handed it to him, and said, "The circle is too disgusting. You have to grit your teeth and persevere. There is really no other way. You can only give it a try."
Spreading the blueberry jam evenly on the bread, Jiang Lin said self-deprecatingly: "Otherwise, can we go to farm?"
"Jiang Lin." Pei Xu called him solemnly.
Jiang Lin was slightly stunned for a moment, and asked seriously: "What's wrong?"
Pei Xu pursed his lips, as if he had made up his mind, and asked carefully: "Why were you hidden in the first place? The public opinion has been going crazy these days, but you are still so leisurely playing games with me at home, fighting Gundam, and keeping your composure, so why did you..."
Jiang Lin put the peeled eggs on his plate, took two tissues to wipe his hands, his eyes were a little dim, then he smiled and told Pei Xu the truth.
When he was a trainee, Jiang Lin was sent abroad by the company for two years of training. He met Zheng Kexuan. The training time in a foreign country was extremely boring and hard. Not only did he have to overcome the language barrier, but he also had to stay in the practice room day and night to practice dancing. It was normal to wring sweat out of his clothes.
Jiang Lin was unwilling to fall behind, so he often appeared in the practice room at three in the morning. However, the company only opened one dance studio for them. As a result, the two extremely hard-working and stubborn people became dance partners, correcting each other's movements, encouraging each other, and invisibly becoming each other's spiritual bond.
After returning to China, Jiang Lin, with his superior appearance and outstanding business ability, carved out a path for himself to become a top star through talent shows. Fashion endorsements and magazine appearances followed one after another. His business value was favored by international luxury brands, which extended olive branches to him. Jiang Lin became a veritable top star.
After Zheng Kexuan participated in the talent show, she won the second place, but the group disbanded two years later and Zheng Kexuan's career stagnated. During a dinner, Zheng Kexuan was forced by the company to attend the social event, and Jiang Lin happened to be there.
The employer kept verbally harassing Zheng Kexuan at the drinking party and tried to insult her innocence in the bathroom of the KTV room. Jiang Lin threw a glass of wine on the employer's face. The employer made rude remarks and tried to launch a physical attack. Jiang Lin punched the other party and forcibly took Zheng Kexuan away. Since then, he was banned by the employer and his career plummeted.
Pei Xu picked up his phone thoughtfully and searched for Zheng Kexuan, and unconsciously said, "Oh~ a popular female star now, with a beautiful face and figure."
