Chapter 756: Real Couple?
For several days, Lu Jingzhi went to a few more places and he arrested people wherever he went.
It was just that no news was received outside, and only people in the circle knew about this.
Everyone finally understood that Lu Jingzhi had never lost his power during the past few months. He simply deliberately pretended to be powerless so that he could relax and lower his enemy’s vigilance.
Now the prestige of the Lu family was already re-established, even more so, it was impossible for anyone to dare to say anything behind the Lu family’s back anymore.
No one knew what Lu Jingzhi’s specific position was. However, it seemed to be even more mysterious than when he was in the 489 Group. However, everyone knew that anyone who offended him now would be suffering a living hell. Anyway, who would still dare to offend him in Luo City now?
However, after Lu Jingzhi took up his new position, his life became more monotonous.
This was because he spent all of his free time and energy at home with his little descendant aside for his working hours.
Two months later, summer would begin soon.
Jiang Yuning’s appetite was getting worse by the day. Sister Liang spent a lot of time studying recipes, but Jiang Yuning simply felt uncomfortable with all the food that she prepared.
It was also because of this reason, that the whole family was in trouble. Eventually, Lu Jingzhi decided to put on an apron, and he went into the kitchen and began to wash his hands and make some soup. It was strange to say that she would feel sick when others made it, but when Lu Jingzhi made it, she could at least eat a few bites.
At the beginning of May, Jiang Yuning has already been pregnant for four months and her lower abdomen was already bulging but because of her poor appetite, she was still very slim and not many people could easily tell that she was pregnant.
However, everyone in Guangying Media already knew the fact that she was pregnant.
Nowadays, Jiang Yuning rarely attended any activities and she also taught the employees in the public relations department many techniques. After all, Li Yunxiang’s matter was not exposed. Therefore, after being recuperating abroad, Li Yunxiang wanted to return to Luo City again and she was now in the team.
The media has taken photos of Jiang Yuning and they suspected her of being pregnant, but Guangying Media did not respond to the matter at all. Jiang Yuning did not want the media to pay too much attention to this matter. Therefore, if it was her own personal matter, she would directly reduce the popularity of the news.
The artistes were also all very upbeat. The shooting was going well now and Yu Shaowei received a lot of invitations.
At this time, there was another very important thing that would need Jiang Yuning to cooperate with the publicity and that was, <Yan Huasu> was finally set to broadcast during the summer vacation. At the beginning, she agreed to Hou Da’s request and she said that she would personally publish it. Now the drama will already be broadcasting soon. Hou Da was also very anxious.
“Now that your pregnancy is not known to the public, I know that you don’t want to participate in the press conference and various publicity activities, but you have to make it up for me, Jiang Yuning! You promised me and this is all my wealth!”
“I know!” Jiang Yuning quickly calmed her down on the phone, “I have a publicity plan.”
“You have a publicity plan, but it’s useless if no one shows up for it.”
Originally, Jiang Yuning’s plan was to work behind the scenes and she would not appear in front of the stage.
She was pregnant now after all.
But without Jiang Yuning’s promotion, no one would watch even any variety shows.
“Calm down first, Hou Da. I have a plan here. Why don’t you take a look, I have already sent it to your email.” Jiang Yuning calmed her emotions down, because she knows how important <Yan Huasu> was to Hou Da.
However, an accident happened before Hou Da could even read the publicity plan.
There was another drama called <Brother of the Wind> and it turned out that the plot was at least 50% similar to <Yan Huasu>.
The filming and publicity of the drama were not strong, but after it was broadcasted, it gained a lot of publicity.
No one knew where the producers of this show found the two internet celebrities to star in the drama. Aside from their exploding popularity, they also had very good acting skills. After the third day of airing, their popularity had already skyrocketed and this caused a huge discussion among the people.
Soon, the book fans of <Yan Huasu> realized that the plot of the drama was very familiar and they brought up this matter to Hou Da’s attention.
After she watched six episodes of the drama, Hou Da almost went crazy. There was always such thing in the entertainment circle. So, she gave Jiang Yuning a call directly.
“Have you watched <Brother of the Wind>?”
“I saw it.” Jiang Yuning had all the materials on <Brother of the Wind> in her hands at this time.
“I’m speechless. Before the <Yan Huasu> project was established, many companies wanted to buy my novel but I wanted to do it myself so I didn’t agree to it at all. I really didn’t expect this to happen. This is so disgusting. So, what should we do now? Are we still broadcasting my drama then?”
“Why not?” Jiang Yuning asked rhetorically, “I watched five episodes of <Brother of the Wind> and it wasn’t that amazing.”
“But the other party really hit the hot spot, so everyone is watching it every day. When <Yan Huasu> is broadcasted, the audience’s enthusiasm would have already been exhausted. Yuning, these days, I have been under a lot of pressure. I think that maybe my expectations are too high. I’m so afraid that I will overturn the car.”
“Since you have already come this way, let’s see how to turn the disadvantage into an advantage. Don’t you always believe that I can turn things around? Why don’t you believe me this time?”
Hou Da took a deep breath on the phone, and finally nodded helplessly: “Okay, I’ll wait for your message.”
After putting down the phone, Jiang Yuning fell into deep thoughts.
There was a brand-new film and television company behind <Brother of the Wind>, but they really knew how to take advantage of the opportunities. The other party even thought about the follow-up. After <Yan Huasu> was broadcasted, they could still brush up on their presence. Several protagonists stepped on a wave and made a profit.
Although the book fans know that the plots of the two dramas were very similar, they also knew that the other party’s show operation, but there were too many such facts in the circle now, and it would be difficult to defend rights.
Call them out?
That was not the best strategy.
The other party hoped that the <Yan Huasu> crew would come out and cause a scene so that they could raise their own value. At that point, any Internet celebrity could easily be compared with Jiang Yuning then.
Jiang Yuning looked at the contents of the file carefully before she finally smiled. Some of the rounds seemed difficult to understand, but in fact the answer was right in front of her.
Now that many marketing accounts have already received money from the other party, they have already begun to deliberately pick things up. Because the book fans reacted fiercely, the marketing account only needs to carry the fierce words of the book fans.
Now <Brother of the Wind> was very popular, and the love line in the drama was very well sought after.
There were not many benefits to the book fans of <Yan Huasu> at all.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yuning called the young paparazzo into her office.
“Are you familiar with these two protagonists? Have you done a background check on them?”
The young paparazzo followed Jiang Yuning’s gaze and looked at the folder. After realizing that they were the two leading actor and actress of <Brother of the Wind>, he hurriedly explained: “These two people are Internet celebrities on a certain platform. They started to come up with a love line at that time, so they have a lot of fans supporting their love line.”
“A real couple?”
“Of course not. This male Internet celebrity has a girlfriend but it has not been exposed. It is said that they are about to be married, but the other party is not very photogenic. So, he asked someone to fire up a love line for him instead.” The young paparazzo replied, “I went to watch those videos. Millions of people liked it, because the both of them kissed and hugged each other, and it looked like it was real.”
