Chapter 407: Blessed Comfort
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The opening ceremony was quite smooth. At least everyone was very cooperative.
The only thing that caught people’s attention was that Shang Rou had come to take a photo and left after that.
Because of this matter, Shang Rou had also left a bad first impression in the eyes of the production team.
“I feel that she’s even harder to get along with than the rumors say… At the thought of such a person being with us in the future, I feel that it’ll be difficult to breathe when I film in the future.”
“Even the director doesn’t have a headache. What are we worried about?”
Some staff chatted and complained, but this small commotion didn’t attract much attention.
The opening ceremony and promotional trailer were released on the official account of the production team of “Three Thousand Realms” one after another. This was also the first time “Three Thousand Realms” had entered everyone’s sight.
The comments below were mixed, but they all came from fans.
“Why is it a Xianxia romance? Didn’t Fearless and Wulin Universe do quite well previously? What’s the point of watching a love drama these days??”
“Previously, it was quite satisfying to watch the martial arts style. What was going on with Moon Goddess’s sudden change in style? Is she done with action style stories?”
“Objection, objection! I want to see the protagonist roam the world!”
“Actually, this is also a new experiment… Shouldn’t they be happy for Moon Goddess?”
“But what was the point of doing a romance drama? Her previous style was quite good.”
Everyone’s comments were mixed, but many people were surprised by the change brought about in Three Thousand Realms.
Among the netizens who commented, there were Moon Goddess’ book fans, as well as fans of Fearless and Wulin Universe. Everyone should be used to Moon Goddess’s previous style, so they expressed their discomfort with Three Thousand Realms.
There were even worse marketing accounts who had already started to post articles when they saw the trend in the comments section. They asserted that Moon Goddess’s inspiration was exhausted and even said that Three Thousand Realms was performing below everyone’s expectations even before it was broadcasted.
Instead of continuing to improve on the award-winning works, she chose to switch to a popular theme. If this wasn’t lacking inspiration, what was?
Soon, the marketing accounts and netizens’ comments changed direction. This topic even had a faint hint of becoming a trending topic.
Shang Rou had been asking her manager to keep an eye on the production team and immediately sensed the direction of the comments section.
She curled her lips arrogantly. “Coincidentally, I’m still worried about how to replace her.”
It wasn’t Shang Rou’s style to not take advantage of an opportunity that came knocking on her door.
“Go and employ some fake accounts and direct the attention towards Bai Yi,” she said to her manager.
In any case, so many people have objections now. Wouldn’t it be killing two birds with one stone if she added fuel to the fire to complete her goal?
The manager also felt that this was a good opportunity. He nodded and agreed to do it. He immediately bought a group of fake reviewers to guide the direction of the comments.
“Speaking of which, all of you are paying attention to Moon Goddess. Didn’t anyone look at the cast? Why did they use a newbie for the female lead?”
As soon as such words were spoken, they diverted some people’s attention.
Bai Yi’s name was also introduced to everyone.
Bai Yi was an artiste from Murong Qiao’s company. In terms of qualifications, she was indeed a newcomer, but Liu Cheng and Murong Qiao liked her spirit very much. The strength she showed at the audition also proved that Bai Yi was indeed worthy of this role.
However, the netizens didn’t know that they only needed to scroll through the comments and their thoughts would be easily taken away.
“I wanted to complain about Shang Rou’s role as a supporting actress. At first, I thought that the female lead was more famous than her, but in the end, this is it???”
“It’s difficult to not have doubtful thoughts about a new actress.”
“Could Director Liu Cheng have been bribed? Otherwise, why would he choose Bai Yi…”
Many guesses were thrown out by the netizens. There were even rumors that Bai Yi was Liu Cheng’s daughter.
The questioning voices immediately pressed down on the female lead, Bai Yi. This was also the scene that Shang Rou wanted to see the most.
She swiped her phone screen happily and looked at the comments that kept refreshing which said that Bai Yi was not good and unsuitable for the female lead. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes flashed with joy.
Scold her harder! It would be better if she took the initiative to withdraw. This way, the position of the female lead would be hers.
#Moon Goddess has run out of talent#
#The Female Lead of the Three Thousand Realms is Suspicious #
Similar labels made it to the trending searches.
As a result, on the other side, Xian Yu, who had just come out of the recording studio and finished his work, picked up his phone and saw this title.
Xian Yu frowned and clicked on the trending topic. His expression gradually darkened.
He naturally liked to read his Little Sister’s books. Even though “Three Thousand Realms” was a theme of immortal love, Xian Yu still read it with relish and didn’t think that it was inferior to the other two books.
However, the mocking words online that said Murong Qiao was out of talent and even worse made Xian Yu’s expression turn cold.
“As expected, she was lucky to have become popular with the previous two books, right? After writing for so long, she still ended up with a romance novel.”
“Moon Goddess? More like bullsh*t goddess.”
“Forget it, forget it. In any case, I won’t watch Three Thousand Realms. It’s probably the kind of awkward drama that’s forcefully filmed by throwing money.”
There were many such offensive words. Xian Yu had once seen words ten thousand times worse than this under his own dynamic comments section, but at this moment, his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
His eyes turned red with anger. He felt that these people did not understand at all and only knew how to blindly evaluate things. Qiaoqiao had clearly written it so well—
Xian Yu suddenly took a deep breath, as if he was forcing himself to calm down. At the same time, he suppressed the anger in his heart. Then, he took his cell phone to call Murong Qiao.
“Big Brother?” When Murong Qiao picked up the call, her voice was still a little confused.
Xian Yu also heard the background noise and couldn’t help but ask, “You… what are you doing?”
The words of comfort he wanted to say were swallowed because he was not sure if Murong Qiao knew about what was happening online.
It’s better not to know. It saves his Little Sister from being sad, Xian Yu thought.
Murong Qiao found it strange that her Fifth Brother seemed a little reserved today, but she still answered his question honestly.
“I’m still on the production set.” She glanced at the script in her hand.
After the opening ceremony, the production team prepared to start filming. Although Liu Cheng was smiling, he was a person who paid special attention to efficiency. At this moment, the actors were all in position to film.
Fortunately, Murong Qiao was a part-time screenwriter, so it was not a big deal to take a call.
Xian Yu pursed his lips and was a little uncertain. “I saw the promotional trailer for Three Thousand Realms.”
He probed, allowing Murong Qiao to immediately understand the other party’s motive for calling.
“You mean the comments online?” Murong Qiao took the initiative to mention it.
Xian Yu’s heart skipped a beat before he heard his Little Sister’s brisk reply.
“Actually, it’s alright. Those comments online—” Murong Qiao wanted to say that she wasn’t affected much, but Xian Yu beat her to it.
“They don’t have good taste! You don’t have to bother with them!” Xian Yu quickly changed the topic.
He was afraid that his Little Sister would be sad, so he quickly added, “They’re all jealous of your talent. There must be other people in the industry playing tricks on you. I can read all your novels three times over. It’s definitely not like what they say!
They’re all despicable people, salty about your success. Don’t care about those…” Xian Yu rambled on.
He almost racked his brains and used all his vocabulary to comfort his Little Sister. He even bragged about her novel before hearing Murong Qiao’s helpless laughter..
