The fourth hottest real-time search title is actually this: [She Refuses The Unspoken Rules].
Curious, she clicked to read, and one entertainment marketing account posted: [Shang Zhen had just ended her contract with the company not long ago, paying three times the breach penalty. When reporters asked her what she thought of the unspoken rules, she resolutely replied: Unspoken rules are a gray shortcut, once you step in you cannot get out, and I am clear about that, even if it means no roles to act in, so I definitely will not take that path.]
This Weibo post triggered many reposts, a part praised Shang Zhen for daring to speak up about this as a newcomer in the entertainment circle, really brave. Another part cursed LN company, suspecting that the company arranged for Shang Zhen a resource transaction, which led to Shang Zhen terminating the contract and paying three times the breach penalty.
Long Tianjiao recounted the incident to Liang He after he got out of the bath, and Liang He commented, "Really an acting queen."
"Isn’t that the truth, now there’s a bunch of idiots cursing under my company’s official Weibo, should I respond?"
"Give Antonio a call, see if he wants to respond. He’s your boss, you need to be on the same page."
Long Tianjiao thought it made sense and made a call to Antonio.
"Did you see the Weibo hot search?"
Antonio replied, "Just saw it."
"Do you want to respond?" For more chapters visıt novel·fıre·net
"We should respond, this is slandering our company indirectly. Of course we need to reply, but I’m thinking about how to do so. I very much want to expose the truth, but our TV drama has just wrapped up, and she played a role in it, it’s not favorable for us; and once it’s exposed, it would devastate her entire life. Let’s not be so ruthless."
"You still are quite humane," said Long Tianjiao. "Seeing our company getting badmouthed , I can’t stand it. Think of an appropriate response, and I’ll retweet it."
Antonio responded with a ’Okay.’
After hanging up, Long Tianjiao said to Liang, "Unfollow her."
"Unfollowing her at this crucial moment will make the news again," Liang He said, looking at the phone. "Wait a while before unfollowing, not urgent. Later tonight is the wrap party, after your official account posts the response and you retweet, take that opportunity during the wrap party to say a few words of thanks."
"Alright, are you going to post a Weibo?"
"Yes, I’ll post now, you post a bit later, let’s press down her hot search."
The two reached an agreement.
After half an hour, the official account finally released a tweet with an implicit message, [The spirit of the contract should be upheld by everyone; any partner who does not abide by the contract is doomed to legal punishment. One of the terms of the contract: artists are not allowed to date without the company’s permission. Aside from Long Tianjiao, who signed a different contract, everyone else is the same.]
The implication is clear, Shang Zhen terminated her contract because she didn’t follow the company’s rules!
It not only saved face for Shang Zhen but also clarified online rumors and gossip to protect their own company’s reputation, without revealing her scandal, saying it’s a lot better to announce dating than to directly indulge in a transaction with a married deputy director.
Moreover, Antonio especially sent a message to Shang Zhen warning her that if she made veiled attacks again, next time he would directly publicize her affair, urging her to behave herself.
Shang Zhen got scared and chose not to respond.
Long Tianjiao then retweeted this post, adding a short sentence: [Protecting LN.]
Then she posted another Weibo about the wrap party.
