A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

Chapter 99 Xu Qi'an Elected by the People!

Gu Yun didn't have the money to buy trending topics, and the company couldn't possibly spend that much money on someone who wasn't even a third-tier celebrity.

This resulted in him only briefly appearing on the trending topics list.

Fans of the original work are mainly focused on Wang Hedi and Zhang Xincheng.

But now, when things are at their peak and generating the most buzz!

Wang Hedi spent money to buy Gu Yun the third spot on the trending topics list, giving fans of the original work and some casual observers a third option!

Thus, Gu Yun's comment, after being bombarded by Xiao Zhan, Wang Hedi, and Zhang Xincheng's fans, finally garnered support!

Things got out of control!

The hashtag “People’s Choice: Hsu Chi-an and Ku Yun” is rapidly gaining popularity!

He surpassed Zhang Xincheng twice, but was overtaken by money, but he remained strong and consistently held the third position!

Previously, Gu Yun was indeed not even considered a third-tier upstart, and his appeal was not as strong as Wang Hedi and Zhang Xincheng.

but now!

Gu Yun has a large following of fans of the original novel, so he should be able to catch the eye of the boss of Xinli.

"With this matter causing such a big fuss, it's impossible that the boss of Xinli didn't see it."

Gu Yun said, "This afternoon, the chances of Teacher Yu successfully negotiating this matter have increased even further!"

"It really did burn out!"

Huang Ming finished his cigarette, stubbed it out, and let out a long sigh: "If this works out, Gu Yun, with one major film like 'Da Feng,' you might just jump straight to near-first-tier status, or even first-tier status!"

"Teacher Yu hasn't even gone to talk to them yet, and you're already thinking that far ahead?" Gu Yun said helplessly.

"I can't help but think that way!"

Huang Ming's voice trembled with excitement: "Gu Yun, if this works out, you'll be the first top-tier player I've mentored in all these years!"

"Actually, I can't help but think that way too," Gu Yun said.

A front-line position!

Just one step away from becoming a top star!

This is the closest Gu Yun has ever come to becoming a top star!

"No normal person could resist!"

Huang Ming laughed and cursed, "If this works out, my position in the company will definitely rise two levels!"

"Still thinking of staying at the company?"

Gu Yun laughed and said, "Old Huang, if we really get promoted to a top-tier position this time, let's open a studio together, and you can be the boss!"

"studio----"

Huang Ming was taken aback. The company contract did include a clause allowing artists to open their own studios, but they had to allow the company to invest. "Why did you suddenly have this idea? I remember you were only thinking about becoming a top star before?"

"It was something we were forced to do."

Gu Yun had never thought of this before, but this time, he was played like this by those damn companies!

Gu Yun realized that he needed to be rich and have the power to fight against capital in order to survive in the entertainment industry for long!

Otherwise, if someone spends some money and buys some public opinion, they can ruin your reputation and destroy you!

"Hehe, okay!"

Huang Ming smoothed a few strands of hair from his forehead, unusually nonchalant for once: "If I really manage to win you over this time, and you become a top-tier star, I'll go with you!"

"So it's settled then?"

"It's a deal!"

Huang Ming suddenly laughed: "We're talking big now, all high and mighty, but let's not wait until the results come out and we've got a whole mess to clean up."

"Hahaha~" Gu Yun laughed: "We will win."

"This is insane!"

"This is insane!"

Bang!

Zhang Xincheng's agent slammed his fist on the table, his face turning ashen: "Are they a bunch of pigs? What's the point of pushing that scapegoat onto this now?"

"Just to disgust us? Aren't they afraid the roles will actually fall into that person's hands?"

"No, Brother Tao."

A PR person below chuckled, "Gu Yun is barely a third-tier actor. How could such a high-budget, male-centric drama with an S+ level investment possibly fall into his hands?"

"Yeah, Brother Tao."

Someone else said, "In the end, they will definitely have to choose between Teacher Zhang and Wang Hedi; it's impossible for it to end up in Gu Yun's hands."

Before the man could finish speaking, Song Tao glared at him, and he immediately shut up.

Are you all brainless idiots?

Song Tao sneered, "The other side paid to bring Gu Yun on board so that the original fans would understand that Xin Cheng isn't the most suitable character either!"

"They're raising the bar for those fans. In the end, even if the role actually ends up in Wang Hedi's hands, there won't be much negative feedback."

"Because the one most like him is Gu Yun—"

At this point, Song Tao was too lazy to argue with these idiots anymore. He waved his hand and said, "I can't reason with you. Keep the PR efforts going and get Gu Yun's trending topic down right now!"

"No one is allowed to go home tonight. Everyone is required to work overtime here."

"Filming is about to start, and the roles will be finalized in a day or two, so everyone should stay focused."

Although the group was unwilling, they still readily agreed, saying, "Yes!"

Song Tao glanced at the time; it was almost 8 p.m. He immediately picked up his phone, ready to go out for dinner.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the office, his assistant rushed over in a panic: "Brother Tao, something terrible has happened!"

"What is it that makes you so panicked?"

Song Tao, seething with anger, said in an unfriendly tone, "If you can't give me a straight answer today, you're fired tomorrow!"

The assistant, a little nervous, stammered, "Brother Tao, it's...it's trending at number one!"

"Who's trending at number one? Speak clearly!"

"Gu Yun—" the assistant said meekly.

"Hehe~"

Song Tao laughed angrily: "Those idiots, even after things have come to this, they still dare to keep buying trending topics for Gu Yun. Are they really not afraid of being robbed of their own spots?"

"No, it wasn't a rival company, it was—it was posted by the official account of [Da Feng]."

What does the official account post?

Song Tao's face immediately darkened. Without waiting for his assistant to explain, he snatched the phone from him!

TOP1: After the official verification of the Weibo post by #GuYun#, #XuQiAn#, and #DaFengDaylightMonk# confirmed that it was posted by the official DaFeng government, Song Tao's face turned ashen, and he threw his phone at his assistant's face: "Useless!"

"idiot!"

"You're all a bunch of stupid, pig-like idiots, and the PR department of the company across the street is a bunch of brainless morons too!"

"If you can't play the media game, then don't bother! Now look what happened, the real role has been taken by a scapegoat!"

"Hahaha—a top-tier star, a near-top-tier star, and their roles were stolen by some stray dog ​​on the street!"

"If word gets out, I'll be laughed at to death by everyone in the entertainment industry!"

'

After more than a week of planning and investing so much money, the role was snatched away by someone else halfway through!

What will Song Tao say to the company?

The office was silent; no one dared to speak!

A few minutes later, Song Tao calmed down and said, "Group One, post on Weibo immediately, saying that Xin Cheng has taken on a new drama and has a scheduling conflict, so she can't play Da Feng."

"Second Group, hire online trolls to smear Gu Yun. Use connections, pull strings, do whatever you want, disgust him to death!"

"If I'm not having a good time, you won't be either!"
