Chapter 329: Add Fuel To The Flame
Ju Jie has been quite spirited recently. As he walked down the street, he felt as if he was about to float.
With the hit song “Mistress” gaining popularity across the country, he has become a superstar in his own right. Even just looking at the number of variety show invitations, he was even more popular than Mo Fei, the company’s top star!
In the past, when he attended those variety shows arranged by the company, Ju Jie was somewhat reluctant because he was always a supporting role. But now, Ju Jie particularly liked going on variety shows. Although he was often teased, he didn’t mind because now he was the main guest!
Moreover, not returning to one’s hometown when prosperous was like wearing brocade at night!1Now that he was popular, how could he resist showing off a bit more on variety shows?
Of course, what made Ju Jie happiest was the change in his family’s view of him.
Although his family didn’t have any prejudice against actors and singers in the past, they were prejudiced against him! They often sneered at Ju Jie’s aspirations of becoming a big star, thinking that he had no talent and would return after playing in the entertainment circle for a few years and hitting a wall.
Now that Ju Jie was really popular, his father who was a big boss, his brother who followed him in business, and so many relatives who used to look down on him all started to look at Ju Jie differently and gave more financial support.
The proud Ju Jie was somewhat satisfied, but his agent was still not satisfied.
Du Lun believed that the results achieved by “Mistress” were not enough. It still lacked a “New Song Bestseller Chart” championship title! Without winning the championship, the popularity of “Mistress” seemed like a silver medal, lacking a touch of the most precious golden light!
Without winning this top spot, Du Lun felt even more that his management skills lacked convincing power. And in the future, if he wanted to switch jobs, he would also lack the convincing achievement of a gold medal agent…
But the momentum of “Mistress”, which has been released for more than half a month, has slowed down. Now “Mistress”, which has only reached the third place in sales volume, was threatened by new songs released this month for its top three positions.
Several songs released on New Year’s Day have shown strong performance, such as Mo Fei’s “You Exist In My Song”, and several new singles from veteran singers, all of which have already squeezed into the top ten on the second day. With this momentum, it’s only a matter of time before “Mistress” is overtaken!
It was almost impossible to make another push for the top spot unless… some unscrupulous means were used! .𝘯𝘵
Du Lun went to Ju Jie and discussed with him.
“Do you want to create a rumor with Sister Mo Fei again? Didn’t we clarify this matter before? The media and fans are not fools, right?” Ju Jie asked puzzledly.
“Rumors, isn’t it all about playing with falsehoods and making people keep guessing?” Du Lun smiled and said to him, “Clarification is one thing, and whether there is something behind it is another.”
“But I really have nothing to do with Sister Mo Fei! Last time you made me make such a fuss, Sister Mo Fei didn’t even want to talk to me anymore!” Ju Jie complained.
Du Lun was somewhat speechless. He really wanted to knock some sense into this guy with a one-track mind. He held back and patiently explained to him, “What I mean is that the audience doesn’t know! If a rumor breaks out again, as long as it’s well operated, there will definitely be many people who think that the previous clarification was just to cover up the truth.”
“Do you know what ‘three people talking makes a tiger’2means? As long as the rumors spread widely, some people will believe them. Once this scandal starts flying around, many people will really think that you have something to do with Mo Fei” Du Lun said.
Ju Jie frowned and said, “Why do I have to get involved with Mo Fei again? Isn’t that deceiving others and myself? If I spread rumors with Mo Fei, does that mean I’ll really be with her? And Mo Fei is so much older than me, I don’t have such a heavy taste. I still prefer the new trainees in the company, student sisters, hehe…”
Du Lun took a deep breath to calm his rising temper, and then said with disappointment for not meeting his expectations, “Hype! My young master, it’s not like you really have to do anything with Mo Fei! Have you forgotten the hype I mentioned to you earlier? Don’t you want your song to top the charts?”
“Right! How can I get it?” Ju Jie was still somewhat moved by this achievement. If his song topped the charts, it would really elevate his status in one fell swoop! Although it might be a small achievement to many big stars, Ju Jie hadn’t attained this achievement yet!
“If you have a rumor with Mo Fei, people will start talking about ‘Mistress’ again, and they might dig up your past statements and start questioning whether you were being insincere and whether this song has hidden references to Mo Fei. Regardless of whether others will believe it or not, as long as we take advantage of this matter to hype up ‘Mistress’ again and even letting Mo Fei’s fans buy this song for you, your song may be able to top the chart!” Du Lun analyzed for him.
“Of course, to achieve just the right amount of hype, the rumor must be spread as real as possible. It also requires Mo Fei’s cooperation and taking some ambiguous photos with you, just like last time,” Du Lun felt that this matter was a bit tricky.
“You’re right, but Sister Mo Fei wouldn’t be willing, right? And after that last incident, she will definitely be on guard. If I go take those misaligned photos with her again, Sister Mo Fei will definitely find out!” Ju Jie wasn’t stupid either.
“Well, she needs to be willing…” Du Lun said with a bitter smile. “So, you need to ask for help from Sister Ling and have Sister Ling put pressure on Mo Fei.”
Ju Jie furrowed his brow and said, “Now my aunt is holding Mo Fei in high regard, and the whole company is building momentum for her. Will my aunt be willing to help me persuade Mo Fei?”
“Of course. Didn’t your father inject capital into the company? Anyway, you are also a shareholder of the company, Sister Ling will definitely value your request! And you are Sister Ling’s own nephew, as long as you pester her, Sister Ling will definitely help you!” Du Lun spoke with a confident tone and said, “Don’t always elevate others and belittle yourself! Don’t forget, although Mo Fei is the number one sister in the company, you are also the number one brother!”
“Hehe, you’re right. Right now, there’s no other man in the company who has more popularity than me!” Ju Jie became proud.
“Besides, hyping this up is a win-win situation. Your song can sell well again, and Mo Fei can also benefit from the hype. She also wants her album to hit platinum! Increasing a bit of popularity is more beneficial to her. Maybe she also wants to hype?” In order to convince Jujie, Du Lun made a judgment he didn’t entirely believe himself.
“You’re right! If I create a rumor with Sister Mo Fei, both of us can become popular. Looking at the results, this is a win-win!” Ju Jie was moved by Du Lun.
“Exactly! And isn’t handling hype what Sister Ling is best at? She will definitely be moved by your proposal!” Du Lun was happy in his heart and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, “You only have more than ten days left for your new song period. You have to hurry up. Otherwise, if you miss it, there won’t be much point in creating hype later.”
“Yeah, let’s create a rumor and aim for the top spot!” Ju Jie’s spirits surged, “I’ll go talk to my aunt right now!”
But could they really get what they wanted?
