Chapter 656: Chapter 656: The Trending Search Can’t Be Canceled
The look in the eyes of the brand’s senior executives as they gazed at her was like they were looking at an idiot. In the midst of their busiest moment, they found the time, crossed their arms over their chest, and said, “Miss Rong, do I look like an idiot to you?”
Kimi’s expression was cold, “Since you don’t see me as an idiot, who are you trying to coax with that spiel fit for coaxing idiots?”
“I’ve said it before, our brand could never sacrifice its future for your sake, letting you compete with Rong Yan. Anyone with eyes can see that you’ve lost this time. If I continue to stubbornly support you in picking a fight with the other party, are you saying we should throw away our brand’s reputation?”
They had already been slapped in the face enough for today.
The smartest move was to immediately minimize the heat of the situation, remove the trending topics as soon as possible. It would be best to retract the previously released advertisements as well, as if we never filmed that advertisement.
If it weren’t for the fact that she still cared about the face of a big brand, she would have loved to delete that face-slapping official statement on the official Weibo account.
And here was Rong Weiwei, still babbling at her, wasn’t this asking to be scolded?
As expected, Rong Weiwei’s face couldn’t hang on any longer, and she looked extremely ugly.
Just then, a staff member from the publicity department hurried back and anxiously said to the agitated senior brand executive, “Kimi, what should we do, I contacted the people at Weibo, and they said the trending topic can’t be removed.”
“What do you mean it can’t be removed?” The brand’s senior executive’s head nearly exploded, staring at him as if he were the representative from Weibo.
The staff member showed a bitter and indescribable expression, “I don’t know either, I phoned the other side, even said we’d pay them to remove it. But they flat out told me they don’t want the money, and they’re not going to remove the trending topic. From their tone, it sounded like JS bought out the trending spots we previously purchased and are planning to keep it up all day today.”
The voice of the chocolate brand’s senior executive turned to an alarmed hoarseness, “Up all day? Are they crazy? If it’s up all day, our brand’s reputation is finished!”
She walked back and forth in the meeting room like she was going mad, “What about the others, haven’t you tried contacting the higher-ups from other platforms who have a good relationship with us? We have to find a way to remove the trending topic. Tell them, money is not an issue!”
“What about the portal websites? Haven’t they replied yet?”
It used to be so simple to get on the trending list, just pay and you’re on; now why is it so hard to remove one.
“The portal websites also said they won’t help us remove the advertisement. Kimi, what should we do?”
“What should we do, what should we do, how should I know what to do!”
Everyone in the meeting room was looking down, not a single person dared to speak.
Standing here, Rong Weiwei felt her presence was immensely ironic. Her face was tense, unable to conjure any expression, she said to the people from the brand, “I can’t be of any help here, I have an event this afternoon, I’ll be leaving first.”
She had already guessed what was going on, surely that little bitch Rong Yan had sought help from Li Shengxiao; only that man could pull off such a grand move!
She did not want to withdraw the advertisement, but she wanted even less for it not to be withdrawable—this was even more humiliating than losing!
She had barely finished speaking when her mobile phone rang.
She glanced at the caller ID and answered the phone, “Hello?”
The person on the other end said anxiously, “Weiwei, something terrible has happened, Mr. Shi has had an accident!”
