Chapter 182: On the Hot Search
On the very same night, Li Xing’er and her agent were reading the Weibo posts.
They were waiting for the news they had just bought to be published. It would be about how Li Xing’er, the female lead role of the Long Wind, still worked despite being sick but unfortunately passed out in the process.
However, before Li Xing’er’s news was out, they found that Mu Weiwei’s name topped the hot search.
[Mu Weiwei, the Master of the Tang Family] tag had topped the hot search No.4.
They clicked on the tag and found that none of the visiting media mentioned how Li Xing’er worked whilst being sick.
Instead, all of the latest news was about how Tang Shaoqi, of the Long Wind, risked her life to save a fan in danger.
Alongside the constant words of praise, there was a video attached too.
In the video, Mu Weiwei, who was dressed in the black male costume, dashed forward and saved the frightened fan on horseback, successfully.
Apart from the reports of the visiting media, Fu Shiyi’s fans were actively promoting and praising the rescue incident.
Some even attached music to the video.
In the video there was a handsome looking guy in costume, who swiftly mounted the horse and brought a modern girl out of danger.
This was a scene full of a time travelling fantasy and it was reposted by numerous people, which helped her gain a great deal of popularity.
Yet, the news she bought, did not cause a single sensation on Weibo at all.
Li Xing’er read through everything and asked her agent.
“What is going on? Why is she in the news?”
Even if she, as the female lead role, was not in the news… the Third Master, as the leading male role, should be on the cover story, instead of Mu Weiwei the supporting role.
The agent said, “Let me make a call and ask.”
Normally speaking, the crew should focus on promoting the two leading roles, but the supporting role was now in the news instead of the two leading roles.
“I told you to keep an eye out for Mu Weiwei so that she would not stand out. What did you do?” Li Xing’er asked angrily.
“I stayed at the hospital the whole time and worked on the news release with the company the entire afternoon, of course I had no time for the crew!” The agent felt wronged.
If she had not pretended to pass out and come to the hospital because of failed takes, the crew would have done the work on the external scenes, and Mu Weiwei’s rescue would have never happened.
After all, it was she herself who had helped Mu Weiwei reach the top of the hot search list.
Yet now, she was blaming her agent for being useless.
“Forget it, we can let her be for the time being.” Li Xing’er waved her hands and gritted her teeth.
It was no use asking the crew what had happened when the topic had become so popular.
Seeing her unconvinced facial expression, the agent suggested,
“Didn’t you say that you have some negative news about her? What about spilling it to the media?”
She knew what had happened between the Li Family and the Mu Family, and how much she hated Mu Weiwei.
Since Mu Weiwei was doing so well with more than just a pretty face and being signed to Shiyi Culture, she was going to become really popular when the movie was released.
If they did not do anything, Li Xing’er would be put into the shadows.
“That is an important piece of news that should be used at a critical moment. Now, we can’t do anything about her.” Li Xing’er’s kind and gentle face suddenly turned sinister.
The Long Wind was her first movie and she must not release the rumors of Mu Weiwei sleeping with Wang Weidong, just because she did not like her.
This is because the rumor would affect the box office and the evaluation of the Gold Phoenix Award; this would be such a great loss to herself.
