—— [Send the newlyweds to the bridal chamber, turn off the light—]
—— [Wait a minute, is Shi Sui impotent?]
—— [Why don’t we all crowdfund to send him some supplements to nourish his kidney?]
—— [Oh, oh, oh, reading the pop-up comments of this variety show is really a double happiness. I’m going to die laughing at the comments sooner or later!]
…
There was nothing but joy in the comments section, but the few stars of the entertainment industry who were currently popular were displeased.
The fashion labels and sponsors, who had initially offered them endorsement deals, had all turned to Xiang Yi instead!
That was just how realistic the entertainment industry was.
When a celebrity’s career is down, commercial businesses wouldn’t even bother to pay attention to them.
When they are famous, businesses are willing to be their backups.
The few popular actresses would usually vie with each other but today, they stood on the same side against a common enemy and hypocritically praised each other endlessly. Later on, they even tacitly… worked together to throw shade at Xiao Hua.
Soon, there were lots of “unsavory news” about Xiang Yi on the Internet.
—— [Sales legend? She probably bought bots~]
—— [Excluding the fake sales, it’d be good enough if someone here can sell a thousand copies~]
—— [Well, it’s because Xiang Yi has a bunch of rich brothers. Of course they can buy as many copies as they want.]
—— [Commercial value? Sorry, Vase Fairy has none. It’s all fake glory. No fool would believe her, right?]
—— [There might not be a problem with her when there’s only one person scolding her, but since there’s a bunch of people who are scolding her, there must be something very wrong! Otherwise, why would they scold her instead of someone else?]
…
The company that those few actresses were backed by owned several marketing accounts, which undoubtedly came in handy at such a time.
There were all sorts of mockery directed at Xiang Yi, and they were making it seem as if her brothers were the ones who bought all the copies of the magazines to help her break the sales record.
Commercial value is an important criterion for businesses to gauge the value of artists.
Seeing all the negative comments about Xiang Yi online, some brands couldn’t help but withdraw their decisions.
They thought that, perhaps, it might not be a good choice to hire Xiang Yi.
Although she was famous, she seemed to be famous for the wrong reasons too.
After all, no one wants a brand ambassador who draws too much flak.
Besides, her data was way too exaggerated. In the past, only male celebrities would surpass female celebrities in terms of sales volume, and never the other way around!
At the critical moment, an overseas video creator posted something on Weibo that caught the attention of netizens.
Nowadays, many foreign artists, netizens, video creators and so on have created accounts on Weibo, some of which were well managed and had a significant amount of followers.
It just so happens that the content creator who posted that post would share her outfits, skincare tips, and such on a regular basis, which had earned her more than two million followers on Weibo.
—— [@Luna: Hi, I’d like to ask, is there anyone who can buy this for me? My friends like her a lot.]
There was a picture attached to it.
It was a screenshot of Edition B of MyStyle Magazine’s latest issue, which was the special feature of Xiang Yi!
The netizens were dumbfounded.
“Is Xiang Yi so famous that even an overseas influencer knows her?”
Some netizens asked Luna a question in her native language.
Luna was usually very diligent in replying her fans, and today was no exception either.
Reply 1: [Of course! The video of her cooking mysterious Chinese dishes is really popular here!]
Reply 2: [Many people shared photos of the copies of this magazine that they’ve bought on social media platforms here! But I can’t read Chinese well, so I need someone to help me with buying a copy.]
Reply 3: [Everyone loves her, she has a pair of hands that has been kissed by God. When she smiles, she looks like the sweetest dessert in the world! She appeals to both sexes and is the ideal type of both men and women!]
Reply 4: [Oh, someone bought it for me! I’m so happy!!!]
