Chapter 848: 847. The trending search jumped forward?
Starshine Media.
Shen Yan, in his leisure, was casually scrolling through online news while sitting at his desk, drinking coffee and bantering with colleagues.
"Things have finally quieted down on the internet these past few days, I think it’ll last a while."
"Why do you say that?"
"You think about it, our Starshine’s biggest troublemaker is the boss herself. She’s been busy performing in plays recently and has no time for shenanigans. Plus, in a little over half a month, she’s joining the production crew. With both a TV drama and a movie set to start filming, how could any issues leak out from a closed set so easily?"
"That’s not necessarily true. Have you forgotten last year’s scandal with the Xu Family’s younger brother? Even if our boss is on the other side of the planet, she can still stir up trouble. You think a production crew can stop her?"
Xiao Li delivered the blow mercilessly.
"... Wasn’t that a special case?"
"If our boss didn’t have some special situations surrounding her, would she still be who she is?"
"..."
Shen Yan was clearly choked up but suddenly realized that damn, those words were spot on; it felt like he was about to cough up a mouthful of old blood.
However, before he had time to think of a few words in rebuttal, a few notification sounds popped up in the bottom right corner of his computer screen. He habitually clicked to see and was suddenly so shocked that he sat up straight.
"Holy shit! Brother Li, you’ve got a mouth that spoils plots, don’t you?!"
"What’s up?"
"There’s drama; knew that Xu Jiajia’s fans wouldn’t rest until they caused a scene!" freēwēbnovel.com
Upon hearing this, Brother Li guessed the gist, "Still about last time’s audition for the female lead?"
"Exactly."
"Didn’t the TV drama production release a statement about it on their official Weibo?"
"They did, and most netizens believed it, but fans from Vast Entertainment’s side aren’t buying it that much, and they’ve been kicking up a fuss online these past few days."
It wasn’t getting a high amount of attention but had managed to sneak into the top 50 of trending searches.
"I thought this issue wouldn’t have any follow-up until the TV drama aired, but I didn’t expect it to start up again not even a week of quiet!"
"What happened this time, the trending topic shot up?"
"No, it’s not that..."
Shen Yan looked at the entries on his computer screen with an indescribable expression, "Cough, supposedly the audition materials from the production have leaked again... Seriously, do the netizens really believe this kind of play from the crew?"
Audition material leaking unintentionally has been played out so many times, can’t they come up with something new?
Brother Li paused upon hearing this and decisively started searching for himself. He breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered the source of that article.
"The production crew still knows what they’re doing; they only released our boss’ audition judges’ comments and scores. It seems Sister Luo must have approved it, and it didn’t involve the other four auditioning actresses."
Only the production has this kind of information, and if such things could be leaked so easily, then the confidentiality agreements in the entertainment industry really need to be tightened up. Most of the time, leaks like this are part of a production’s PR strategy.
Hearing this, Shen Yan nodded, "Brother Li’s right, the production is indeed considerate. If they leaked the scores and comments for all five candidates, it would be face-losing for the other four."
At this stage, if the other side still made trouble, it would be deemed unreasonable.
In this circle, the wise know when to stop, and the onlooking crowd can also sniff out different flavors from the scatterings of information.
Shen Yan clicked to open the article marked with comments and scrolled down, quickly arriving at the comment section to discover that many netizens left messages after reading.
