Before Lin Wansu could check the trending searches, her direct messages and comments had already exploded.
She was bombarded with criticism for daring to market herself despite lacking acting skills.
Her hand trembled as she grasped the severity of the situation.
Her fans were unable to control the narrative in the comments section, which was filled with mockery.
[Lin Wansu actually has the audacity to be called one of the new four top actresses???]
[After seeing Si Fuqing’s acting, I thought anyone who dared to rank above her must be phenomenal. And yet, this is what we get?]
[Director Xu: ‘I could grab anyone off the street, and they’d act better than you.’ I can’t stop laughing.]
[If this is the standard of acting in the industry, it’s doomed. The scary part is that among the new actresses, Lin Wansu isn’t even the worst…]
[I feel sorry for the rest of the crew.]
Enraged, Lin Wansu demanded, “Who released that video?!”
She had explicitly instructed her agent and the production team not to release that particular segment.
Her assistant, equally troubled, informed her, “Sister Zhu is already in touch with the production team. We tried to remove it from the trending searches, only to be told that someone paid to keep you at the top.”
“It must be Si Fuqing!” Lin Wansu was fuming. “I’ll confront her about this!”
The assistant quickly intervened, “Susu, let’s wait until Sister Zhu has all the details. You need to stay calm.”
But how could Lin Wansu remain calm? She was forced to hold back her anger.
Meanwhile, her agent, Sister Zhu, coldly reached out to Director Xu, “Why was that video of Susu released? Are you aware that the drama’s rating has plummeted to 5.6?”
“We had agreed not to release that segment!”
“I should be asking you!” Director Xu retorted coldly. “Did you offend someone, causing them to release the footage? Do you realize how difficult this makes things for the production team? This isn’t just your show!”
“If you want to film, you have to keep a low-profile. You’ve even caused the show’s rating to drop. Look at what you’ve done!”
Sister Zhu was completely dumbfounded by the scolding.
She quickly understood and had to apologize to Director Xu reluctantly.
After hanging up, Director Xu’s demeanor instantly changed, and he hummed a tune, receiving a thumbs-up from the coordinator, “Director Xu, that was quite a performance.”
Director Xu waved it off, “It was nothing.”
Back with Lin Wansu, Sister Zhu was seething. She then called Sang Yanqing,
“Sang Yanqing, isn’t this going too far?”
“Going too far?” Sang Yanqing replied with a smile. “When you bought paid trolls and marketing accounts, didn’t you think that was too far? How is this any different? I’m having dinner with my artist, don’t bother us.”
After the call was disconnected, Lin Wansu looked distressed, “Sister Zhu, what do we do now? 𝖋𝔯𝖊𝖊𝖜𝔢𝖇𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔢𝖑.𝖈𝔬𝖒
“What else can we do?” Sister Zhu massaged her temples, frustrated. “Try to remove it from the trending searches, find someone else to take the blame. But consider this drama ruined. Forget competing with Bian Yunxi.”
The gap between them would only widen.
However, due to Sang Yanqing’s significant investment, the trending topic couldn’t be easily removed.
Many netizens demanded that Lin Wansu be removed from the drama to save
“Crossing the Demon Realm.”
In the office, Tang Haiqiu asked indifferently, “Who chose Lin Wansu?”
He was only responsible for auditioning the lead and secondary female roles.
After all, in a female-centric drama, other roles weren’t as significant, except for the Demon Princess and the female lead, who shared many scenes as frenemies.
An assistant director from Team B weakly raised his hand, “Director Tang, it was me.”
“How did you choose her?” Tang Haiqiu slammed the script down. “Did you take a kickback?”
The assistant director’s face paled, and he stammered, “Director Tang, I…”
Lin Wansu’s audition had indeed been subpar, but barely passable since the fourth female lead’s role was minor, appearing in only two episodes.
Thinking of the money Lin Wansu offered, he had decided to keep her, never anticipating such fallout.
“That’s it, she’s out, and so are you,” Tang Haiqiu said emotionlessly. “Let the others know, if I find anyone’s performance lacking during filming, I’ll replace them on the spot.”
There were plenty of actors wanting to be in ‘Crossing the Demon Realm”; he wasn’t short of options.
The assistant director from Team B wanted to say more, but Tang Haiqiu didn’t give him another glance and left.
Lin Wansu not only failed to see the trending topic removed but also found herself expelled from the production team.
Finally panicking, Sister Zhu exclaimed, “Susu, you need to call your family, tell them Si Fuqing intentionally sabotaged you. They will surely stand up for you..”
