Chapter 376: 360 slaps the face, losing a vest [2 more updates]
The glaring eight characters burst straight into her sight.
Ye Xi, how is your face?
Ye Xi’s expression also changed abruptly.
She had haters, but she had even more fans.
She also had a dedicated PR team, and under that team, there were a lot of professional fans.
These professional fans were specifically responsible for manipulating her fans to boost her data and belittle other celebrities.
Under the team’s operations, it was impossible for her negative search ranking to enter the top ten.
Ye Xi was about to snatch the phone from Chen Li’s hands to see for herself, but Chen Li was also holding onto the phone tightly, continuously scrolling through it.
The more she scrolled, the more violently Chen Li’s body shook.
The coordinated release of hundreds of marketing accounts that claimed Yun Heyue had intentionally harmed Ye Xi was all swept under the rug by the trending heat of Xie Manyu and Qin Lingyu.
All preparations had become completely futile.
Ye Xi anxiously pulled out her own phone.
As soon as she turned it on, it emitted a series of urgent “beeps.”
After the director removed the signal jamming device, and the network returned, Ye Xi’s Weibo notification column exploded instantly, all showing 99+.
The Weibo post she made about withdrawing from “Youth 202” had been overtaken by the onlooking netizens.
Underneath it was a uniform question.
Ye Xi, how is your face?
Her fans were also ridiculed mercilessly.
[I’m dying of laughter. Still expecting the show’s producers to beg Ye Xi to come back? Does Ye Xi deserve that?]
[Producers: Ask and you shall receive, inflating your own faces.]
[Ye Xi was actually throwing her weight around on purpose, trying to get more from the show, right? In the end, she failed to get what she wanted, and pissed off the producers who went on to recruit new people.]
[Could Ye Xi please throw her weight around more? Maybe then those big shots who don’t ever appear might actually get drawn out by you, then I’d really have something to watch.]
As she looked on, Ye Xi’s face grew paler by the second, a cold sweat breaking out over her back, and her body collapsed.
She clenched her phone and looked up, “Sister Li…”
She and Chen Li had both assumed that aside from her, the “Youth 202” production team could find no better candidate.
But now, the production team had brought in Xie Manyu and Qin Lingyu!
In front of these two boy band founders, she was nothing but a negligible joke.
She didn’t even qualify to compete with Qin Lingyu, let alone adding Xie Manyu to the mix.
“Sister Li, what should we do?” Ye Xi panicked, “What can we do?”
Chen Li, who had seen larger storms than Ye Xi, could barely keep calm now, “First, let’s leave this place, go back to the company.”
Chen Li opened the door, and as she stepped out, she ran into Producer Li, the director, and both Xie Manyu and Qin Lingyu who had just come out of the meeting room.
Xie Manyu spotted Ye Xi at a glance and walked up to her, thanking her with heartfelt sincerity.
“Thank you, thank you, for giving me the chance to be close to so many handsome young men.” Xie Manyu smiled, “It’s been several years since I even had a scandalous rumor about me, my fans are getting anxious.”
Xie Manyu, who came from a film background and had not mixed in the television drama circle, had a big-screen face.
Her presence was too overwhelming, something that Ye Xi just couldn’t handle.
Her lips trembling, she forced out a smile, “Thank you, Teacher Xie…”
A short burst of laughter fell, laden with thick sarcasm.
Wearing a baseball cap with her long blue-dyed hair draping over her shoulders, and a tight black leather jacket outlining her perfect figure.
The title of ‘Demonly Beauty’ was no empty boast.
She crossed her arms and gave Ye Xi a very calm and steady glance.
Yet, Ye Xi felt a chill run down her spine, sensing a murderous intent from that mere glance from Qin Lingyu.
Ye Xi had played roles in spy thrillers and had learned how to use a gun, but she had never experienced this feeling before.
Qin Lingyu withdrew her gaze, took out a piece of chewing gum from her pocket, and started chewing, “Boring.”
The so-called top stars of the entertainment industry are getting uglier and uglier.
Not even close to a killer like her.
A professional killer with a side job as a celebrity.
Qin Lingyu had no interest in Ye Xi; she headed back to the meeting room to find Ying Zijin.
“Director, Producer Li.” Chen Li bit her lip, still unwilling to let go, “What do you mean by this?”
Producer Li, who had been frustrated these past few days, finally had a chance to gloat and certainly wouldn’t miss this opportunity to slap them in the face.
“What do I mean?” He sneered, “Did I ask you when you were pushing the production team into a corner? Yes, I was deliberately stalling you. Happy now?”
