The top trending topic was a freshly released piece.
Accompanying it was a picture of an NT physical store being dismantled.
Those with sharp eyes recognized it as the flagship store of NT in the city of Sijiu, also the largest of its kind.
The dead of night was prime time for gossip, and netizens, who had just been discussing Si Fuqing’s new microblog post, were now stunned.
[Wow, what?!]
[They’re pulling out of the Great Xia market just like that?”]
[So, Si Fuqing really is a lucky koi fish? Why does whatever she says always happen?]
[Definitely yes! It’s not like she has the power to make NT leave the Great Xia market.]
[Seriously, not even the Yu family could do that so quickly. I just saw their store open the day before yesterday.]
[Thump, sorry, from today Si Fuqing is my idol. I’m off to worship her.]
Si Fuqing’s fans fell into a prolonged silence as they watched the sudden increase in comments praising her as a koi fish.
Today had been another fruitless day.
Disheartened, they decided to regroup and have fun in their fan forum.
Manager Luo was utterly shocked upon seeing the trending news, “Leaving the
Great Xia market? How is that possible?”
NT Cosmetics’s most profitable market was the Great Xia Empire. Even with a significant drop in sales last year, it was still their main source of income.
Why would they give up their physical stores in Great Xia?
Did they no longer desire profit, or had they gone mad?
“But the Great Xia TV has already reported it,” said the trembling PR manager.
“It can’t be fake. They really are pulling out.”
Manager Luo took a deep breath, his forehead veins bulging.
Feng Peizhi was equally shocked, “Why withdraw at this time?”
Without the Great Xia market, they wouldn’t need a Great Xia spokesperson anymore.
What would happen to the contract she signed with Si Fuqing?
The three exchanged glances, and just then, Feng Peizhi’s phone rang.
It was from NT Cosmetics, who had been unreachable.
The caller was the president of NT Cosmetics’s Great Xia division.
“Hello, hello,” Feng Peizhi answered hurriedly. “The news about you leaving the Great Xia market isn’t true, right? Why are people spreading rumors online? We must issue a legal statement!”
“It’s not true? I was about to ask you!” The president replied angrily. “Did you do this deliberately to dig up last year’s incident again, to force us out of Great
Xia?”
NT Cosmetics was actually not satisfied with Si Fuqing.
But they had no choice. After a long search for a spokesperson, no celebrities were willing to take the offer.
When Tianle Media approached them, they had to settle for Si Fuqing.
Who would have thought, instead of gaining a spokesperson, they would be forced out of the Great Xia market?
The president of the Great Xia division was baffled.
Even if the scandal of insult to Great Xia was brought up again, it shouldn’t have led to such extreme measures.
Which group in Great Xia had the power to force NT out and close thousands of stores in two days?
He couldn’t figure it out, and the headquarters hadn’t said anything. “It’s really true?!” Feng Peizhi was shocked. “This can’t be… impossible!”
“I don’t have time for nonsense. The contract is clear. If the endorsement doesn’t happen, you have to refund the endorsement fee,” the president said coldly. “Luckily, we haven’t transferred the twenty million yet. The contract is canceled!”
Feng Peizhi’s expression changed, “Why? It’s not Tianle’s fault, it’s your problem.”
“The contract terms are clear. If you sign a contract, you must fulfill it,” the president retorted disdainfully. “A big company like Tianle Media, backing out on a deal?”
“And you really are opportunistic. I saw the spokesperson’s Weibo. She claims to be unaware of everything. That’s it, nothing more to say!”
The call was abruptly ended.
Feng Peizhi was dumbfounded.
Manager Luo’s expression was dark, “Idiots!”
Si Fuqing’s luck lately seemed unbelievably good, as if even the heavens were aiding her.
Not only did they fail to label her with an insult to Great Xia, but they also inadvertently made her seem like a koi fish.
They had lost everything and gained nothing.
“And you!” Manager Luo glared sharply at the PR manager. “Quickly think of something. We must drag Si Fuqing down with us..”
