After the filming was completed, I awakened my superpowers.

Chapter 49: There is something fishy going on in the King of Cooking production team

……

At the same time, prestige is on the other side.

Inside a slightly messy rental house.

Director Li was sitting at his desk, staring at the WeChat chat box on his laptop, but his heart was pounding.

The contract for The King of Chefs was signed between the producer and Modu Entertainment, and the remuneration was paid into the public account of Modu Entertainment, but Sheng Yixia has now left Modu Entertainment and opened his own studio.

Moreover, he heard that Sheng Yixia was basically kicked out with nothing, with the reason being to make up for the company's expenses in training, resource fees, etc.

In this situation, even if Sheng Yixia was unsympathetic and refused to cooperate with the promotion, there was nothing he could do about it.

But it just happens that Sheng Yixia still has a high traffic right now, and his fans are more active than some third-tier stars. It would be a pity if he was missing from the publicity and promotion.

For this reason, after sending the message, Director Li felt like he was back in his student days, and re-experienced the anxious feeling of waiting after sending a message to the goddess to make an appointment to watch a movie.

What Director Li didn’t expect was that Sheng Yixia’s reply soon appeared in the chat box: “Okay, Director Li, I hope our movie will be a big hit.”

Director Li's face lit up with joy, and he quickly replied, "Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Yixia. I'll treat you to a meal in two days."

"Okay, okay, go ahead and do your thing."

After a brief greeting, the two ended their communication, and Director Li immediately started to make the next connection.

The assistant director, screenwriter and other main creative team members of the crew are also staying in this rental house at the moment, constantly sending out WeChat messages or making phone calls, trying to build relationships and get people to help with publicity and promotion.

As for the producer, he is currently in Beijing drinking and singing with the young leaders of Y Station, trying hard to get more promotional resources.

And at the same time.

Jingchen Hua Ting.

Sheng Yixia reposted the official announcement of the King of Cooking, and attached a message - "A well-made food-themed web drama, I play the third male lead Wu Yongguang."

shuh~
After forwarding it, Sheng Yixia didn't care about it anymore. Taking advantage of Yingjun's meal, he masturbated a few times. Then he muted his phone and threw it on the sofa in the living room. He went into the study and continued to carry out his tutor's task.

These days, unless Sheng Yixia is too tired to move, he will take some time every day to push this matter forward.

Within ten days, we must at least come up with a preliminary design plan to be able to deal with Gao Laodeng.

Sheng Yixia calmed down and looked up the information, sorting out and constructing the design plan bit by bit.

When you focus on one thing, time flies quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. Sheng Yixia's stomach was growling with hunger and he felt a little tired. So he finished the work at hand and prepared to have some midnight snack.

After leaving the study and walking into the living room, I saw the cell phone on the sofa flashing and vibrating non-stop.

Sheng Yixia picked it up and saw that it was a voice call from Director Li of the King of Chefs, so she picked it up and said, "Director Li..."

Director Li immediately intercepted the call and said in a tearful voice, "Teacher Yixia, you finally answered the phone. Please put away your magical powers."

"what?"

Sheng Yixia was confused: "Director Li, what happened? I was busy just now and haven't checked the news yet."

"Then you should understand the situation first, Teacher Yixia. It's not easy for a small crew like us to shoot a drama. Please save us."

After saying that, Director Li hung up the phone.

Sheng Yixia looked puzzled and glanced at the Weixin message.

I found that in addition to Director Li, my agents Zhang Qingjie and Gu Ge also sent me a lot of messages, and even missed several calls each.

His expression became a little more serious, and he quickly flipped through the unread messages. After a while, Sheng Yixia figured out the whole story, and a few drops of sweat appeared on his forehead. This matter was indeed a bit outrageous.

Afterwards, he sat on the sofa, turned on the TV, entered the Y station video, and used his mobile phone to cast the screen to play "The King of Cooking" so that he could see the barrage. As soon as the film started playing, there was an overwhelming barrage of comments.

"There is something fishy going on in this movie." "I support Brother Yixia, the production crew is so inhumane!" "Sisters, let's report it together and get this trashy movie that insults Brother Yixia taken off the shelves!"

Those sounds and sentences made Sheng Yixia so upset that he fast-forwarded the film to the first match.

In the picture, he kneaded the dough and mixed the stuffing in one go. When he finished pinching a steamed bun with his slender fingers like a pianist, the bun actually emitted a halo. Combined with his handsome and extremely serious expression in the camera, the whole picture was very beautiful and refreshing.

"Handsome! It is indeed very handsome~"

Sheng Yixia couldn't help but applaud this shot. Director Li shot this cool scene himself, and the effect was simply perfect.

The barrages are also dense.

"Finally my brother Ichika appears. The first half is rubbish~"

"Ichika-nii is so handsome."

"Son, Mom loves you!"

"Brother Yixia's fingers are so beautiful and flexible. I really hope he's not making dumplings..."

"Just lick it and that's it."

"Who is this guy? He has some skills."

“Haha, that so-and-so dares to compete with my brother in cooking skills? He’s beaten to his knees right away.” But there were also many negative comments mixed in, all of which were criticizing the competition for being shady.

He quickly moved to the semi-final position with the villain BOSS. The barrage in the early stage was quite normal, with the screen full of "So handsome, so handsome." "I'm dead, dead," "I'm coming, coming," and various **** barrages full of banned words.

This is definitely the most successful long shot in Director Li's career.

He likened it to transcendental art, and judging by the volume of barrage explosions, his self-perception wasn’t wrong.

but……

Something happened later.

When the referee ate the steamed buns made by Sheng Yixia, his expression was filled with shock and happiness at first, but then he changed the subject and began to praise the villain BOSS with all kinds of fancy lines.

The barrage of comments paused for a few seconds before the screen was filled with question marks.

When the three referees unanimously decided that the villain BOSS won the match, the barrage of comments exploded, and this time it exploded completely!

"Shady, shady!"

"Can the production team do this? Are they bullying our brother because he has no fans?"

"You dare to humiliate my brother, where is my knife? Where is my knife?"

"Sisters, stop watching this rubbish show and go check out the official Weibo account of the show's production team."

"Go, go, go!"

"If the production team doesn't give us an explanation, we will give them an explanation."

Seeing this, Sheng Yixia began to understand Director Li's helplessness. The fans ignored the fact that this was a big online movie and directly treated the movie as a reality show.

Although there were some comments like "Sisters, this is an online movie, not a reality show!", these comments were too sparse and were directly drowned out by the various accusations against the program team.

But these are not the worst. The hardest hit area is the official Weibo of the King of Chefs.

After Sheng Yixia took a look at the official Weibo account of the production team, she also felt it was horrible. All kinds of negative comments completely flooded the official Weibo account.

There are even some terrible remarks like - "Sisters, this is the reporting phone number of "Guangdian Zongju"..."

Sheng Yixia was shocked and frowned.

His fans are indeed quite active, but not to this extent, right?

What's more.

He felt that the comments of these fans seemed to have a unified tone.

Not right.

Sheng Yixia smelled something unusual.

He is not a completely new actor. He has been affiliated with Shanghai Entertainment for almost three years. He has an artist ex-girlfriend like Qin Weiwei by his side, so naturally he has a certain understanding of the fans' behavior patterns.

But how long has it been since his fans were formed?
How is it possible to be so organized and disciplined?
There is most likely someone behind this, or at least after seeing that his fans are dissatisfied with the production team, they started to fan the flames and add fuel to the fire.

Who is it?
Sheng Yixia secretly thought about the people she had offended recently. The first one must be Ge Minhong, and the second one... well, could it be the third male lead in the King of Chefs whose role was snatched away by her?
wrong.

The status of Yuan Nan No. 3 is too low, and he has very few fans.

Maybe, there is also Zhao Junfei.

He is a third-tier traffic star, claiming to have millions of fans on Weibo. He must have his own fan base and management.

This kind of thing should be easy to do.

really.

Just as Sheng Yixia was trying to figure out the identity of the mastermind, Zhang Qing sent a message saying, "Yixia, some well-connected marketing accounts secretly leaked the news to me. The mastermind behind this is most likely someone from Zhao Junfei's side."

"However, Ge Minhong is also not unconnected. The trending search was bought by her little puppy Yu Zihao's friend. Most likely she saw the opportunity and wanted to take advantage of it to add insult to injury."

Zhang Qing's sense of smell was still very sharp, and her action was also full. She went to check it out as soon as she noticed something unusual. Even if she hadn't contacted Sheng Yixia before, it didn't stop her from doing what she was supposed to do.

As for the hot searches she mentioned.

A post titled "Xi Ba Sheng bullies young actor in summer" ranked 19th on the hot search list. After clicking on it and reading the content, it was all about marketing to discredit him after he made a guest appearance in the drama, and then he colluded with the director and screenwriter to forcibly change the drama and squeeze out the original actor.

Another hot search is even more powerful, with the keyword being - "Denounce the poisonous tumor of fan culture of traffic stars."

Although Sheng Yixia's name was not on the hot search keywords, the various reports found through the hot searches were all directed at him, Sheng Yixia, and screenshots were taken to list many radical remarks made under the official Weibo account of The King of Chefs.

Those self-media and marketing accounts have made a big fuss about this, criticizing the bullying behavior of the toxic fan circles in various ways, and denouncing some actors for not honing their acting skills, and for luring fans to do this and that all day long, engaging in bullying behavior in the fan circles.

See these.

Sheng Yixia couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that he had grown so fast and had already been defined as a traffic star.
