193 In Advance
After all, Lin Zi was Ji Jun’s manager. Although he behaved like an aggrieved little wife in front of Ji Jun, he still had the ability and confidence of a famous manager when he faced others.
Xiang Lei’s sudden move did not seem to be just to gain popularity. Lin Zi patted his watermelon belly and suddenly said, “In that case, you guys can take advantage of this wave to make a preview.”
No matter what Xiang Lei wanted to do, his ultimate goal was only those two things. If they reacted in advance, they could see how the other party would react.
When Ou Cheng heard Lin Zi’s words, he immediately understood his plan. Hence, 10 minutes later, the official account of “Light of eSports” directly tagged Ji Jun and posted: [You are our original intention.]
!!
After Xiang Lei released the news, he also pushed the relevant entries to the trending searches. His fans did not know that there was such a program previously, so when they heard the news, they all went to check what kind of variety show it was.
When the fans went to the production team’s official account, they saw that they did not post any news related to Xiang Lei. Instead, they directly tagged Ji Jun. They were at a loss and started commenting on what was going on.
[Didn’t they say that our Lei Lei is participating in this show? Why is Ji Jun the one who is @?]
[Whether it’s Lei Lei or Ji Jun, you guys better figure it out first.]
[Are you guys messing with the fans?]
[Since there’s no official announcement about our Lei Lei, don’t get him involved!]
When Lin Zi saw the production team’s message, he could not help but sigh. It was as expected of a veteran producer. With just a few simple words, he could attack and defend.
Since both parties had yet to sign the contract, the production team did not directly announce that Ji Jun had joined the “Light of eSports” program. Instead, they said ambiguously, “You are our original intention”. This way, when the dust settled, they could treat this event as a preview.
If an accident happened at the last minute and the negotiations between the two parties fell through, it could be said that the production team had high hopes for Ji Jun to join. This was an invitation to him.
To Ji Jun, this was just a preview. However, to Xiang Lei, who had just released the news that he was going to participate in the show, these words were unbearable.
Anyone who knew a little more about the marketing of the entertainment industry would know that when the news of XXX’s participation in a certain project would be released in advance, there was someone controlling it behind the scenes. Either the artist wanted to create hype for himself, or the production team was using the popularity of the fans to attract investors.
Now that Xiang Lei said that he wanted to participate in the show, the production team ignored him and tagged Ji Jun instead. This was a slap in the face. It could basically be ruled out that the news was released by the production team. Moreover, the production team also said that Ji Jun was their original intention, so Xiang Lei could not talk about this matter anymore.
Obviously, after Xiang Lei saw the production team’s post, he also realized this problem.
Xie Yi frowned. “They’re too fast.” It seemed like the production team had a strong desire to protect Ji Jun. That was why they were in such a hurry to jump out. Thinking of how arrogant the production team was towards his own team, he was furious.
Since they had already spent the money, it was impossible for them to give up halfway without achieving any goals. “There are only two directions left. The first is to guide the fans to scold the production team and say that they are using the fans to ride on your popularity.”
However, this would have little impact on Ji Jun.
“The second is to accuse Ji Jun of using his power to oppress others and snatching your resources. For the sake of benefits, the production team went back on their word and helped the evildoer.”
Xiang Lei said without thinking, “The second direction.”
They had put in so much effort just to slander Ji Jun and use him as a stepping stone.
It was normal for the industry to be updated quickly, but Ji Jun had been in the top position for too long. It was time for someone else to replace him. Let him rush up and bite him hard to see if he could pull him off that position.
Hence, at 12 o’clock that night, Xiang Lei’s account posted a photo of him asking for a hug. The caption was: “The rainbow always comes after the storm.”
When this post was posted, the fans’ hearts ached when they saw it.
[Did Lei Lei get bullied?]
[Lei Lei, you still have us.]
[Lei Lei, you’re so kind and innocent. Who would bear to bully you?]
Soon, some fans thought of what had just happened and automatically made a connection. They ran to the official account of the production team of “Light of eSports” and scolded: “Trash production team!”
