Chapter 83: No Money for Selling Life



The listed prizes were so tempting that Li Zhao couldn't help but repost the Cangshi watch lucky draw Weibo.

After Pear fans found out, they condemned Li Zhao's behavior of snatching fans' benefits and asked him to delete the Weibo post.

“Hahahaha, the haters condemned the marketing account for slandering Li Zhao, but the pear fans asked Li Zhao to delete the lucky draw blog and stop competing with fans for benefits.”

"What kind of idiotic idol and fans are these? Not only are the idol and fans abnormal, but even the haters are weird."

"Hahahahaha, Li Zhao really deleted his Weibo post, and then posted an aggrieved expression. In the end, no fans came to comfort him, but instead praised him for doing a good job. In the middle of the night, I laughed like a pig in my bed."

Li Zhao’s team also didn’t expect that Li Zhao would have the audacity to repost the Cangshi watch lucky draw Weibo. What kind of weird operation is this?

But it was a blessing in disguise. Now no one would think that Li Zhao was a gigolo kept by others. Which gigolo who is kept by someone else could be in such a miserable state that he even doesn't let go of the brand's lucky draw Weibo?

At home, Li Zhao held his phone, hung his head and sighed: "They didn't even give me a chance to win the prize."

This fan base is so cruel.

You say you love me, but your actions are honest.

Putting away his phone, he gently nudged Yan Ting with his elbow: "What's going on with those lotteries?"

"I'm not sure, it might be the company's publicity strategy." Yan Ting quickly denied it.

"Are you really not arranging them to help me build momentum?" Li Zhao was very suspicious.

"Zhao Zhao, you underestimate your own commercial value." Yan Ting opened the comment section, "Strictly speaking, it is the company that is riding on your popularity to establish a positive image in the minds of young netizens."

Li Zhao glanced at the comment section under the lucky draw Weibo post and saw that netizens were indeed making fun of several companies under Cang Huan, some even calling them "Cang Cangs".

"In recent years, online sales have accounted for an increasingly larger proportion, and major brands are racking their brains to compete for online consumers, and Canghuan is no exception."

The proportion of online sales is indeed increasing, but many industries under Cang Huan do not need this kind of sales method, so there is no need to let Li Zhao know this.

However, what Yan Ting did not expect was that within just one hour, the sales of many daily necessities under Canghuan increased dramatically. The sales department arranged staff to pack and ship the goods overnight, but they were unable to keep up with customer demand.

The publicity department had mixed feelings; they had invited Li Zhao to be the spokesperson for Cangshi watches, but they didn't expect that he would also "endorse" other products.

One employee joked: "Should we give Li Zhao a big red envelope?"

Others: “…”

Who could have expected such an unexpected gain?

Qin Xiao heard from the secretariat that the gentleman had registered on Weibo and had his Weibo account authenticated.

After seeing the comments on Weibo, I'm about to go crazy.

He opened his Weibo account, which he had not used for hundreds of years, and with the strongest desire to survive, he forwarded Yan Ting's certified Weibo.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a message from his husband popped up on WeChat.

[Yan Ting: If there are rumors about you and Zhao Zhao, then there is also a possibility that there are rumors about me and Zhao Zhao, right? 】

Is that right?

That is certainly true.

Even if it's not right, he, as an assistant, will find a way to make it right.

After thinking about it, he found a few marketing accounts without company background, hoping that they would steer the topic towards Li Zhao and Boss Cang Huan.

Marketing account: "Brother, this is really not okay. I only make money by selling my conscience, not by selling my life. Although I am not signed to a company, I still understand the rules that cannot be violated in the industry. Please don't hurt me."

Qin Xiao: "I can add money."

Marketing account: "Adding money won't work. Brother, since you sent me a red envelope at the beginning, I can remind you a few words. If you want to discredit Li Zhao, you can do it from any aspect, but don't get involved with the big boss Cang Huan. Last year, there was a female artist in Strawberry Entertainment who didn't know better. She claimed to be a distant relative of the Xu family and was born into a wealthy family. Do you think she still has a name this year?"

Qin Xiao: “…”

This matter actually has nothing to do with my husband. He didn't take it to heart at all. It was other people who speculated too much and scared themselves, cutting off the resources for that female artist.

At this juncture, it was not easy for him to say that he was Boss Cang Huan's assistant, and his purpose was to spread rumors about the Boss and Li Zhao. If he really said that, the Boss would lose face if it got out.

"Oh." He sighed. As an excellent assistant, he never thought that he would have to deal with online marketing accounts.

No matter how talented a person is, if he enters a field that he doesn't quite understand, he will feel frustrated that his talents cannot be fully utilized. Especially when it comes to things like this, you can't hand them over to other people and you can only handle them secretly yourself.

When Qin Xiao was about to talk to this marketing account again, he found that he had been blocked by the other party.

As a qualified assistant, you must face difficulties head-on even if there are difficulties ahead.

Qin Xiao spent money to buy two Weibo accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers.

[For Li Zhao, all brands under Cang Huan came to give out awards. It seems that he is not related to the assistant to the president of Cang Huan, but has a special relationship with the big boss of Cang Huan. 】

[I also think that Li Zhao may have a good relationship with the CEO of Cang Huan, otherwise, with so many products under Cang Huan, he wouldn’t give him so much face. 】

After the two Weibo posts were sent out, someone quickly responded to Qin Xiao, but that didn't seem to be the result he wanted.

"If Li Zhao can really get on the same page as Boss Cang Huan, why would he still want to film a movie?"

"Black people should talk about the Basic Law. First, it was Qin Xiao, and now it's Cang Huan boss. Why don't you say that Li Zhao is a popular guy and the whole Cang Huan is obsessed with him?"

"Stop dancing, no one will believe this."

"I swear, I'm really a pear fan, but I can't be a hater at all to this kind of hater. Because my sympathy for his IQ has surpassed my hatred for him."

"Pear fans are really kindhearted and generous. They are tolerant of this kind of idiot."

Qin Xiao: “…”

Sir, I really tried my best.

On Li Zhao's work team, Luo Rong saw someone linking Li Zhao with Boss Canghuan. He was usually calm, but his face changed with fear.

Let the studio contact the other party immediately and delete the false rumors, otherwise we will prosecute through legal means.

Qin Xiao, who received a warning letter from Li Zhao's team: "..."

Forget it, it would be happier if I gave up on this kind of thing early.

The next morning, when Qin Xiao saw his husband coming to the company in high spirits, he knew that Mr. Li was not angry with him for concealing his identity.

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he heard his husband ask, "Is there anyone online discussing my relationship with Zhao Zhao?"

Qin Xiao was silent for two seconds: "Mr. Li's fans are all rational fans. They will not doubt Mr. Li just because of what others say."

"It turns out that no one believes it." Yan Ting seemed disappointed, but also relieved: "This is good, it can reduce Zhao Zhao's troubles."

"In fact, it's not that no one has discussed this. Some netizens online still support the couple of Mr. Li and the demolition tycoon." Qin Xiao took the opportunity to save the situation.

Yan Ting's expression became even uglier.

"If Zhao Zhao sees it, it would be like reminding Zhao Zhao that I lied to him." Yan Ting shook his head, "This Xipi is not good, spend money to close the topic."

Qin Xiao: “…”

A boss who is never willful or meddlesome will cause people a headache when he becomes troublesome.

Okay, there must be some fun in life. It counts as one of the fun things to do with Li Zhao every day!

Qin Xiao had just made the arrangements when Mr. Sun from Strawberry Entertainment called.

"Mr. Ting, last night there was a marketing account on the Internet that deliberately hyped up your relationship with Zhao Zhao. I know you keep a low profile, so I have arranged for the legal department to contact the other party and have them delete the Weibo post."

Yan Ting: “…”

"This is definitely not our company's intention. I have seen your sincere friendship with Zhao Zhao, and we will never let those messy rumors on the Internet tarnish this true friendship."

Yan Ting was silent for a long time: "Yeah."

"I'm glad you understand. I'm just worried that those messy rumors on the Internet will affect your friendship..."

"You really don't need to pay too much attention to comments online." Yan Ting said calmly: "If netizens make fun of me and Zhao Zhao in the future, you don't need to pay too much attention to it, and you don't need to deliberately suppress it. If the jokes are too extreme and affect Zhao Zhao's career development, then we will deal with it."

Mr. Sun hung up the phone with mixed feelings. He turned to his assistant and said, "Cao Jia, we need to be nicer to Li Zhao."

Yan Ting was willing to let them use him to hype Li Zhao, what a touching... friendship.

Cao Jia conveyed Mr. Sun's intention to Luo Rong.

"Don't worry about it?" Luo Rong was a little dissatisfied, thinking that the top management had read the rumors on the Internet and planned to give up on Li Zhao: "Assistant Cao, it's not that I want to intervene, but if I cause dissatisfaction on the part of Cang Huan, I'm worried that it will affect Zhao Zhao's subsequent development."

"You don't have to worry about that." Cao Jia smiled, "Of course, Mr. Sun has communicated with Mr. Ting before he dared to say that."

Luo Rong hung up the phone and frowned slightly.

If Boss Cang Huan had really given face like this, the female artist in the company last year would not have been so unlucky later.

He felt that this matter was a bit strange, and even had an absurd idea in his mind, maybe... Zhao Zhao had a friendship with Boss Canghuan?

No, no, no, how could he have such a bold idea?

"Brother Luo." Li Zhao, wearing an ordinary T-shirt and a baseball cap, walked in with a large bag of nutritious meals in his hand, distributing them to the publicity staff of the team: "Everyone worked overtime last night. Thank you for your hard work."

"Zhao Zhao, do you remember that we were working overtime overnight?" A staff member opened the lunch box and started eating: "I thought you only cared about forwarding the lottery."

Li Zhao laughed dryly: "The prize was too tempting, I couldn't resist for a moment."

Luo Rong: “…”

He thought Li Zhao was deliberately forwarding the lucky draw blog to liven up the atmosphere, but he didn't expect that he was really interested in the prizes under Cang Huan.

As a popular new actor, how could he feel embarrassed?

While eating the breakfast brought by Li Zhao, Luo Rong gave the staff who worked the night shift last night a day off, leaving two colleagues who did not work overtime last night on duty. He said to Li Zhao, "Zhao Zhao, Cangshi Watches is not dissatisfied with you because of the scandal last night. They even sent you the latest watch for summer and autumn. I'll give it to you later."

"Thank you, Brother Luo." Li Zhao took off his cap and sat on the sofa. "Are there any good scripts recently?"

"The company wants to arrange for you to film a movie with Lu Hao. Both the screenwriter and director are top-notch in the industry, but Lu Hao will be ranked ahead of you." Luo Rong handed the movie script to Li Zhao: "The film will not start shooting until a month later, so I will help you take the supporting role in Liu Fen's new movie."

As he spoke, Luo Rong threw another script to Li Zhao.

The first script was for a patriotic war-themed movie. The characters of Li Zhao and Lu Hao were both very outstanding. As long as the cast was reliable, the movie would have a solid base after its release and would not fail.

Liu Fen’s new movie is called “Seven Boyfriends”. Liu Fen plays an older unmarried female elite who, because she rescued a cat, was forced by the cat to give her seven boyfriends with different styles.

Li Zhao's character is a clingy little wolfdog from a wealthy family. He makes all kinds of overbearing declarations to the heroine. The heroine is attracted to him for a moment, but in the end, she feels that they are not suitable for each other and rejects him.

"The competition in the industry is fierce, and any scandal is not as good as a new work." Luo Rong was worried that Li Zhao would not want to take the role, so he persuaded him: "Liu Fen is very popular with the audience and has good box office luck. If you play this role well, you can attract a lot of female fans."

"This role is quite interesting. I'll take it." Li Zhao smiled at Luo Rong, "Thank you, Brother Luo."

After finishing the business, Luo Rong took Li Zhao to the company's restaurant for dinner. The meals for Strawberry Entertainment employees were a healthy combination of meat and vegetables, but unfortunately most of the artists did not have time to go back to the company for meals.

In the restaurant, apart from company staff and some trainees who have not officially debuted yet, there is not a single actor of note.

Li Zhao's appearance attracted the attention of the trainees. They looked at Li Zhao with eyes full of envy and yearning.

There are so many artists in the entertainment industry. It is really difficult to be promoted by the company and have audience appeal like Li Zhao.

Li Zhao took his plate and went to the food area to get food. He found a fashionable boy next to him, looking at the food on his plate with horror.

Li Zhao smiled and said, "Sorry, I was born not to gain weight."

The boys' eyes changed from fear to jealousy. In order to make their faces look smaller in front of the camera, they were so hungry that they couldn't sleep. However, Li Zhao was born with a physique that made it hard to gain weight, and even his skin was so good.

When God created human beings, was he biased?

After seeing the food on Li Zhao's plate, Luo Rong wanted to remind Li Zhao about his diet, but when he saw Li Zhao's body shape, he swallowed his words back.

The buffet at the company's restaurant was only edible, with little oil and salt, and was far from delicious. However, Luo Rong still watched Li Zhao finish every drop of food on his plate.

Thinking of Li Zhao's childhood experience, Luo Rong softened his heart: "Go back and rest early this afternoon. The filming of Seven Boyfriends is almost done, and you will join the crew the day after tomorrow. The filming location is in Beijing, and it is convenient for food and accommodation."

Li Zhao nodded.

"By the way, there are rumors online that you have a relationship with boss Cang Huan. The team has already dealt with it." Luo Rong observed Li Zhao's expression.

"Aren't they saying that I'm having a relationship with Mr. Qin? Why is the relationship changing?"

"People who want to slander you will not be limited by time." Luo Rong lowered his head and took a sip of coffee. "People on the Internet can easily bring out the evil in human nature through the virtual network. Don't pay attention to the bad words on the Internet."

"Thank you, Brother Luo. I don't care." Li Zhao bent down and whispered, "Brother Luo, I actually know Boss Cang Huan."

Luo Rong's hands trembled: "Is it that you know him and he doesn't know you, or is it that you know each other?"

"We are just friends." Li Zhao was a little embarrassed. "Do you remember the jewelry I wore at the Cang Huan Annual Party last year?"

Luo Rong nodded: "But weren't those borrowed from your rich friend who was demolishing the house?"

Li Zhao smiled even more embarrassedly: "Yes, the demolition tycoon is the boss of Cang Huan."

Luo Rong's hands were shaking like a cafeteria lady serving food, and the coffee in the cup almost went straight into his nose: "Boss Cang Huan... is he the one who lent you the house and jewelry?"

He had wrongly accused the marketing account. It turned out that Li Zhao really had a relationship with Boss Cang Huan.

Two buildings were demolished?

Yes, the old site of Canghuan’s headquarters was demolished a few years ago, and the current headquarters and branch building in Dongcheng were built.

Dozens of storefronts?

There are probably more than dozens of branches, big and small, all over the world, right?

Are today's rich people so humble and low-key?

No wonder Mr. Sun and Assistant Cao often called him and asked him to arrange Li Zhao's work properly, not to let him get tired, not to let him have poor resources, and not to force him to film a drama he didn't like.

Who in the entire Strawberry Entertainment wouldn't want to support someone who can be on friendly terms with CEO Canghuan?

As for Liu Fen, every time she had good resources, she would take the initiative to tell their team and was extremely kind and friendly to Li Zhao. I'm afraid she had some guesses about Zhao Zhao's background.

This is right, this is Liu Fen's style of doing things, otherwise he would suspect that Liu Fen had bad intentions towards their Zhao Zhao.

After Li Zhao left, Luo Rong returned to the office in a daze. The staff member in charge of monitoring online public opinion cautiously said to Luo Rong: "Brother Luo, there are a few small marketing accounts online, implying that Zhao Zhao is related to CEO Cang Huan."

"It's okay." Luo Rong waved his hand, his eyes full of vicissitudes: "Let them go."

"What if Cang Huan..."

"Don't worry, Cang Huan will definitely not have any objections."

He is stupid, he is really stupid.

When the official Weibo accounts of all Cang Huan's products came out to hold a lottery for Li Zhao, he should have felt something was wrong. Why didn't he think about that at all?

Probably... almost everyone agrees that it is impossible for Boss Cang Huan to have a scandal with anyone.

This mysterious boss is a machine, a statue, an object without emotions. He has assets worth trillions, but the only thing he does not have is the emotions of a living person.

Prejudice and stereotyped impressions can deceive people's eyes, blind their brains, and make them lose their normal judgment ability.

Gold medal agent Luo Rong also made the same mistake.

In the dim room, Xu Bei saw that the public opinion on the Internet had turned to Li Zhao's side, and he was so angry that he smashed everything that could be smashed in the room.

No, he still has a chance.

There is another way to kill Li Zhao.

He found the marketing number.

[Go online and hype up Li Zhao, the boss of Canghuan, and openly praise Li Zhao for having a good relationship with the boss of Canghuan, saying that they are friends. 】

He just didn't believe that the people around Yan Ting would tolerate the little actor using Yan Ting for publicity.

[Marketing account: Are you sick? 】

【What's the meaning? 】

[Marketing account: I have no grudge against you, why do you want to harm me? 】

Xu Bei sent another message and found that he had been blocked by the other party.

"Idiot!" Xu Bei was so angry that he smashed the computer.

Why, after starting over again, he still has trouble doing anything and is even more unlucky than in his previous life?

"Boss, here is the list of people who have had financial dealings with those whistleblower marketing accounts recently." Before leaving get off work, Qin Xiao placed a list in front of Yan Ting.

"These six people are all entertainers, four men and two women."

Yan Ting glanced through the list and finally stopped at the word "Xu".

The author has something to say: Baby Zhaozhao secretly pulled a kid from the kindergarten to a corner and said: I want to tell you a secret, actually I am good friends with the best baby Tingting in the kindergarten.
