Chapter 142 – The Forecast for Tomorrow is an Explosive Hot Search 

“Who likes him?” As if a sore spot had been poked, Xiang Xi jumped up and said in a fierce tone, “Don’t you talk nonsense. I simply couldn’t stand it and stated the facts.”

What’s more, this was not his initiative. When he regained his senses, he had already posted that tweet on Weibo.

Thinking of this, a light bulb suddenly went off in his head and Xiang Xi hurried asked, “Why don’t you create a persona for me that is upright and unpretentious, so that I can just say whatever I want?”

Manager: “…”

You call this being honest and unpretentious? This is call acting without a brain, okay?!

Sigh, only his face was good, but his emotional intelligence didn’t grow at all.

Of course the manager couldn’t scold Xiang Xi like this. Xiang Xi was able to climb so high in the entertainment industry with this kind of temper. This was clearly someone who was protected by the heavens. So what if he was a little stupid?

Huayi Media got the inspiration to make him a candid and honest personality. Later on, his sharp tongue and tsundere character became a breath of fresh air within the entertainment circle.

Of course this was all a story for later.

When Qiu Jin got up the next day, he found out that the Weibo account that tried to smear his name had been banned for spreading rumors. Along with that account, a bunch of other marketing accounts that relied on libel for traffic were also taken down. These accounts were full of misdeeds and relied on all kinds of random fabrications to make a living. People in the entertainment industry have long disliked them, but they did not expect someone to straightforwardly deal with all of these accounts all of a sudden.

Accounts were banned and fines were issued. Each and every one of them was put in their place.

Netizens lamented: Another batch of marketing accounts have died. It seems that the authorities are really trying to establish a new trend.

Such a heavy-handed way of dealing with the situation. Asides from that person, Qiu Jin couldn’t think of who else it might be.

Qiu Jin sent a message to Ji Shenxiao: “Were you the one who dealt with it?”

Ji Shenxiao: “.”

Yup, that meant it was him.

Qiu Jin was a little embarrassed and sent Ji Shenxiao a “thank you,” but then he felt it was too rigid and added a gif image. Satisfied with that, he put away his phone and went to the filming set.

On the other side, Ji Shenxiao looked at the animated picture of a cat forming a heart with its paws and his poker face thawed into a smile for the first time.

“President…”

Ji Shenxiao put away his phone and adjusted his expression in one second flat. “What’s the matter?”

After the secretary left Ji Shenxiao’s office and returned to the general work area, the secretary shouted, “Ahhhhhhh, I just saw the president smiling!”

There were about seven or eight secretaries in Ji Shenxiao’s team, half of whom were young people, and even the older people were not immune to gossip. They quickly came over and asked, “You’re joking, right? President Ji’s perpetually icy face can actually smile?”

“It’s true! What would be the point of lying about this?” The secretary then said in a tone as if imparting some secret, “And what’s more, he was smiling at his phone!”

“!!!”

Everyone covered their necks and screamed: “Could it be that he’s in love?”

“Who’s in love?” Xu Chen, who had just clocked in, asked with a smile.

“No, no, it’s nothing.” Upon seeing that it’s the fuerdai who came for some real-life experience, the secretary immediately stopped talking and changed the subject. “We were talking about the team leader. He has worked for the president for so many years and finally got rid of his single status.”

Is that so?

Xu Chen looked at Ji Shenxiao through the glass wall and secretly made up his mind that he would definitely get rid of his status as a bachelor.

As soon as Qiu Jin arrived on set, he found that the atmosphere was a little different than usual.

He wasn’t sure if it was related to that incident, but he still said his greetings as usual, “Good morning.”

Yi Congqing asked him, “Did you see yesterday’s Weibo? It said you used the back door.”

Sure enough, it was because of that incident…

Qiu Jin smiled and waved his hand, “It’s nothing. It’s just a misunderstanding and it has been resolved.”

Yi Congqing said angrily, “Even if it’s been resolved, my heart is still burning with hatred.”

Qiu Jin: “…Director, why are you so angry?”

“How can I not be angry?” Yi Congqing arched his eyebrows. There was a glare in his eyes. “I have obviously said that Qiu Jin is the most suitable person to play Ji He. Do those people think that this great one is spouting nonsense?”

Qiu Jin: “…”

It turned out that the director was angry for himself. Such slander challenged his pride as a director that could not be bribed. Qiu Jin knew that the director wouldn’t sympathize with him enough to get angry on his behalf.

Qiu Jin suddenly remembered that Yi Congqing had tried a new genre with his previous film. After it flopped, he then received the script for “The Rise and Fall of the World.”

In fact, it wasn’t quite a flop. The Douban* score of that movie was about seven points, which was quite satisfactory, but the box office sales were not very good and his movie was meant to be a commercial film, so that’s why it was embarrassing…

Yi congqing cursed a few times, as if he was still angry. He threw down the script and said angrily, “Slandering Qiu Jin is equivalent to slandering me!”

Qiu Jin: “…”

You don’t have to take it to that level…

Everyone looked at Director Yi’s thin figure and his eyes that were dark like black glass. They all had an expression like they wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to. It was very hard to hold it in.

Seeing that the filming schedule was about to be delayed, the executive director immediately jumped out: “Okay, okay, get ready quickly and slap them in the face with your acting skills.”

But Yi Congqing was still thinking about this matter and asked: “Isn’t our trailer about to be released? Can it be released one day in advance?”

The executive director nodded: “It should be okay.”

Yi Congqing said, “Then release it tomorrow.”

He wanted to see who else would dare to challenge his vision and pride as a director.
