Chapter 1167: Down-on-Luck Jiang Yuhan
On the fourth day, they publicized Lu Man and her secret guest.
Because the show had yet to be filmed, the final advertisement was yet to be finalized.
Just two days before Lu Man and Wang Juhuai set off to Dong Hua Broadcasting Station to film the program, the Internet suddenly released an expose: “Hot news! I just heard that Lu Man gets paid 500,000 for appearing in one episode of Classic X Files, far higher than the fees of the top B-lister Jiang Yuhan and famous comedian Zheng Yikun! It’s only lower than Lin Yantao. Why does Lu Man get paid this much?!”
“Is that true? Do you have proof?”
“My Goddess of Fury Man gets paid this much because of her ability. Nothing will change even with your jealousy!”
“That’s my big Man Man!”
“She, a C-lister, gets paid more than a B-lister? That’s a bit too much. But most importantly, on what basis?”
“Because she’s the Goddess of Fury Man. Because not only is she an actress, she’s also a top PR officer. Because she helped Classic X Files beat The Performer until The Performer stopped broadcasting.”
“So what? The entertainment industry is based on rankings. Just because of that, she enjoys good relations with the production team, so she deserves higher pay than Jiang Yuhan? Is it that in the future, we don’t need these rankings anymore, we just have to think of ways to get good connections?” a hater of Lu Man said.
“Don’t the other artistes have any opinion on the production team’s behavior?”
Just then, a netizen posted, “OP did not understand the full picture before posting, misleading all netizens. Lu Man’s 500,000 pay was inclusive of her PR work. Lu Man’s a top PR officer, and even those with enough money might not even get to hire her. Her client queue is long enough to circle the earth three whole times. Lu Man joined the program, so they have priority, and they employed her to help with the publicity. You all think Lu Man helped the production team beat The Performer for free? In her pay, her appearance fee is the usual one for a normal C-lister; the rest is all for her PR work.”
“Hahahaha, tremble in fear and jealousy now! In the coming days, every publicity by Classic X Files will all be done by my great Lu Man!”
“So what you all mean is that Lu Man did the publicity for the week featuring Sun Yiwu and Ji Cheng?”
“Of course. Who else could have come up with that? If the production team of Classic X Files had had the ability, they would’ve advertised like that ages ago. Why wait for that particular week to start?”
Hearing this, the netizens who wanted to join in on the fray to question Lu Man and ruin the relationship between her and other artistes had nothing else to say.
But that did not mean they’d failed to hit their aim.
At the very least, they managed to incite some people into unhappiness.
Anyway, Jiang Yuhan was definitely upset after seeing these posts.
She already had a lousy impression of Lu Man.
She’d joined The Performer, but because of Lu Man, that show flopped.
Many artistes who had joined The Performer were implicated because of the program’s scandals behind the scenes.
She was affected too, naturally.
But she was lucky. For her, the impact of the implications was not as great as it was with the others, and she had stepped down from the show at first notice.
The fury of the netizens was focused on the production team of The Performer, on Lu Qi, and on others while she had successfully withdrawn from the conflict.
And then, she accepted a role in Sounds of Winter.
Jiang Yuhan wanted to say that she was rather lucky this year; not only did she escape the implications, she even snagged a role as the female protagonist in a famous director’s movie.
With her luck, she could probably try harder and try to push to be an A-lister, and that would probably be achieved as well.
