Chapter 576 Shared Growth The reason for Ye Chu's surprise was simple: he thought Ye Ya would launch a major attack on Tao Xiang, but after browsing Weibo a few times, he found that the direction of public opinion was actually well controlled.
This is alright, of course, not because everyone is harmonious and happy. Rather, it means that some Ye Ya did go to attack Tao Xiang, but the number was much smaller than Shang Ye Chu had expected, practically a drop in the ocean.
It's not that Shang Yechu looks down on her fans, but Ye Ya's base number is there. Even if only one out of ten people is not rational, multiplied by the base number, it's still a terrifying number.
I couldn't ask about this in detail in front of everyone. Once we got to the changing room, Shang Yechu hurriedly asked her assistant what had happened.
The assistant covered her mouth and laughed, "Big sister, you underestimate us too much! Although our team may not be as smart as you and the boss, we're not just sitting around doing nothing!"
Upon further inquiry, Shang Yechu realized that she had truly underestimated Qingping Entertainment.
Although the company had made arrangements at all levels, and the Star Han Awards officials had given vague guarantees, no one could be absolutely certain of success until the very last moment, before the trophy was actually in their pocket.
Everyone is well aware of the unpredictable nature of the entertainment industry. In the Chinese entertainment world, integrity carries a value comparable to the amount of wife in a wife cake. Therefore, Qingping Entertainment had already made two preparations well before the ceremony even took place.
Although Bao Bao's performance as Xiao Ming was excellent, he's young and inexperienced, so winning this award wasn't a sure thing. Even if he doesn't win, don't be discouraged; being nominated is already a great achievement!
The Xinghan Awards, also known as the Xinghai Awards, have a higher chance of winning for Shanghai-based artists. The leaves are horizontally circled; it'll be good for me to broaden my horizons this time.
[Xiao Tianban's performance was good, but the Xinghan Awards have historically disliked patriotic films. The result might not be ideal, so let's hope for the best while preparing for the worst.]
[This might be a bit of a downer, but I need to say this beforehand. Everyone knows how incompetent Xiao Chu's team is; they can't even format a nine-grid selfie, so don't expect them to win any awards for the baby. Besides, the Xinghan Awards only considers three years' worth of TV dramas, and many veteran actors are nominated this time. If things don't go as planned, please don't attack the Xinghan Awards organizers or the winning actors. Just criticize Ji Juntao and Qingping Entertainment—those two epic flops!]
[Just got a rumor, everyone be prepared: the final choice will likely be between Ye Zi and another senior actress. The senior actress has excellent acting skills, experience, and professional ethics, so Ye Zi has very little advantage. However, the subject matter of "Half a Sky" is better, so it's not entirely hopeless.]
[I'm truly fed up with those rich bastards at Qingping Entertainment. A friend of mine works there and secretly told me that the Xinghan Awards were supposed to be manipulated. Turns out, Xiao Ye's team didn't do anything! I asked why, and guess what she said? She said that Tianding Entertainment had artists nominated for the Xinghan Awards this year, and Ji Juntao has connections with Tianding Entertainment. To show they didn't want to compete with the big boss, they deliberately didn't manipulate anything! These scoundrels just used Xiao Chu's first nomination to curry favor...]
And so on. All of this was content that Qingping Entertainment had professional fans release in advance. Mainly for the purpose of maintaining stability.
Shang Yechu has only been in the industry for three years, and it would be a joke to say that no one is envious of her current achievements. If Qingping Entertainment had created hype early on, proclaiming everywhere that Yechu was determined to win the award, then even if she won the Xinghan Award, it would have become a worthless award, and people would have questioned whether it was the result of manipulation. It's better to use a strategy of building anticipation before making a move, playing the victim card to prepare the fans in advance.
If Ye Chu wins the award at that time, it will naturally be a pleasant surprise and will greatly excite the fandom. If the Xinghan Awards really does pull a fast one, Ye Chu's fans, who are mentally prepared, will not be so discouraged as to do something impulsive.
Ji Juntao truly understands human nature. She knows that no matter what, if Ye Chu doesn't win the award, Ye Ya will definitely be furious. This anger must be released; keeping it inside will drive away her fans.
