Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After this blogger’s video was posted, it seemed to be a signal. Gradually, complaint videos about television dramas like “The Consort” appeared one after another on the Internet. It was obvious that there was someone behind this large-scale operation.
As long as anyone had a source of information in the industry, they would know who the mastermind was.
There were only so many resources in the industry. Gu Xiao had originally started from variety shows. Although the television dramas and movies after that were not bad, compared to the old companies that had existed for a long time, Star Brilliance Entertainment was not strong enough.
However, “The Consort” and “Peony Fall” were really too popular last year.
In last year’s popular dramas, “The Consort” and “Peony Fall” were ranked first and third respectively. Star Brilliance Entertainment occupied two of the top five popular dramas, and their positions were not low, suppressing the television dramas of other companies.
In addition, after Gu Xiao entered university, although she did not often manage some matters in the company, it was obvious that her focus was still on Star Brilliance Entertainment. The development of Star Brilliance Entertainment had also become much faster, and there was even a vague feeling that it would be listed on the stock market soon.
At this moment, the capitalists and companies in the industry could not stand it anymore.
How was it possible for a company established by a brat to be on equal footing with them so quickly? Those capitalists would not watch Star Brilliance Entertainment get listed on the stock market so smoothly and compete with them for more resources.
Although Gu Xiao did not have a backer, and she did not have a good relationship with the Ji Group.
However, Gu Xiao and the Chu Corporation were very close. Even if the Chu Corporation did not show their relationship with Star Brilliance Entertainment previously, some capitalists would not dare to openly mock Star Brilliance Entertainment.
They were unwilling to watch Star Brilliance Entertainment get listed, so they could only contact other companies and television stations that had grudges against Star Brilliance Entertainment and secretly target Star Brilliance Entertainment. In any case, they did not want Star Brilliance Entertainment to be successful.
Even if they could not do it this time, they had to disgust Gu Xiao. There would always be other opportunities in the future.
Hence, these companies and television stations found many big celebrities to complain about the television dramas and artists under Star Brilliance Entertainment from all aspects.
On one hand, they wanted to ruin the reputation of these television dramas under Star Brilliance Entertainment. It would be best if they could take these television dramas down. On the other hand, they wanted to use the problems of these television dramas to frame Gu Xiao.
With the arrangements of these television stations and companies, many verified accounts that complained about Star Brilliance Entertainment’s television dramas instantly appeared on the Internet.
In the beginning, the blogger “Oreo Milk” was still reasonable and well-founded in his comments. What he said was indeed some loopholes in The Consort. However, the content of the other reputed bloggers that followed closely behind might not be true.
However, in a series of television dramas that were slandering The Consort and Peony Fall, it was impossible for netizens to watch these television dramas that were criticized, one after another. Some netizens could easily be led astray in this environment.
Not to mention the netizens who had never watched these television dramas, even some viewers who had watched the television dramas began to suspect that their words were all true.
[I originally thought that the television drama produced by Star Brilliance Entertainment was really exquisite, but now that I look at it… it’s just like that. I feel that my faith has collapsed.]
[How should I put it? 1 didn’t feel surprised at all when I saw such news. After all, many people in the industry are in this situation. However, when these television dramas were broadcasted previously, many people were saying how good these television dramas were. No one would believe me even if 1 told the truth. Now, it’s great. Indeed, they will still be beaten back to their original state.]
[Tsk, tsk, tsk. They even said that Star Brilliance Entertainment has the best conscience of the industry. This is how the best conscience of the industry betrays us, the audience.]
[I admit that Star Brilliance Entertainment’s variety show is indeed not bad. Since the variety show is doing well, can’t you just focus on doing variety shows? Why did you have to film some television drama? In the end, it ended up like this. You’re playing with us, the audience, like we are monkeys!]
The paid posters prepared by other companies and television stations also began to appear. In an instant, the entire Internet seemed to be belittling Star Brilliance Entertainment’s television dramas.
Even if there were netizens who were putting in a good word for Star Brilliance Entertainment, these comments were drowned out by the general trend, and no one could see their words..
