You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular

Chapter 146: The 146th day of being popular



Chapter 146: The 146th day of being popular

Yao Bianliang breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to relax.

She had to implement this plan immediately.

Time waits for no one, and she must make the general public aware of the true nature of this drama and realize how unsuitable it is for a holiday before it officially goes online!

Opening the chat box, Yao Bianliang prepared to send a message to Assistant Chen, instructing him to take care of the matter.

The few marketing and public relations personnel she had just hired would come in handy.

"Wait, something's not right..." Yao Bianliang had already typed half the message when her fingers suddenly stopped.

She suddenly realized a serious fact

She didn't even leave herself a sufficient budget for promotion!

According to her original plan, the more promotion, the higher the viewership. She would be foolish to spend money and bring trouble upon herself.

However, plans sometimes go differently than expected.

Now that a crisis has arisen, she must release some news to guide public opinion.

At this moment, she needs a large amount of funding.

Yao Bianliang: "..."

She never expected that the problem would arise from money.

However, upon careful consideration, even if she had set aside a budget from the beginning, that amount of money would probably be a drop in the bucket and would hardly attract much attention.

So, should she use her official Yao Bianliang account to post a Weibo and advise everyone not to watch?

As soon as this thought emerged, Yao Bianliang dismissed it.

In this day and age, one must never underestimate the netizen's rebellious mentality. Comments from ordinary people and statements from actors are completely different.

If people see comments in the comment section saying that the drama is too oppressive, viewers may decide not to watch.

But if it's the actor themselves saying, "This drama is too oppressive, none of you should watch it. I'm telling you clearly, don't watch it!"

Yao Bianliang could guarantee that within a day, a bunch of rebellious individuals would rush to contribute to the viewership.

The risk was too great, and she couldn't afford to gamble.

"Host, maybe it's time to consider a different approach." The system felt that this line of thinking was no longer viable.

Yao Bianliang rubbed her chin with her finger, pondering for a moment, and finally said slowly, "No, who says this won't work?"

She lacked funding, but someone else had plenty of money to spend.

A smile curled up at the corner of her lips as Yao Bianliang lightly tapped the screen, opening the chat window with Yao Xinxin.

She sent that familiar opening line: "Hey sis, are you there?"

After sending two messages without receiving a response from Yao Xinxin, Yao Bianliang decided to make a phone call.

This time, Yao Xinxin actually answered.

Her voice was filled with suppressed anger. "Yao Bianliang, what do you want now?"

Yao Bianliang sighed and earnestly advised, "Yao Xinxin, you should know that timel is crucial in the battle of public opinion. If you don't let the public relations team take action quickly, it will be too late."

"For the current situation, the best approach is to admit that you're filming a brainless drama. Publicly promote the idea that brainless dramas are meant for relaxation during holidays. Dramas like mine are not suitable for the general public to watch during their leisure time!"

"I sent you a detailed plan of action, compressed into a file. Make sure you read it carefully."

However, Yao Xinxin only frowned. What good intentions could Yao Bianliang possibly have in giving her advice? Only a fool would listen to her.

With this thought in mind, Yao Xinxin couldn't help but sneer, "Yao Bianliang, it's because of you that I'm being criticized across the entire internet, while you're receiving rave reviews. At this point, why pretend to be kind-hearted?"

Hearing this, Yao Bianliang knew that Yao Xinxin didn't take her suggestions seriously.

She also felt helpless. "Do you think I want it this way? If the audience insists on praising me, what can I do?"

Yao Xinxin: "..."

Yao Xinxin: "So, is this still my responsibility? Blame it on me for not being competitive enough, causing you to become popular?"

Hearing Yao Xinxin's resentful words, Yao Bianliang couldn't help but sigh.

Was it the time for them to argue and shift blame to each other?

The most urgent matter was to resolve the problem quickly.

Yao Bianliang helplessly said, "Yao Xinxin, since you think I'm being ambiguous, then tell me, does my suggestion have any disadvantages for you?"

Yao Xinxin moved her lips, wanting to refute something, but stopped herself.

She was stunned for a moment and pondered seriously.

Initially, her anger had clouded her judgment, but now as she thought back to the proposed plan, she gradually began to see its value.

Yes, although Yao Bianliang's words were infuriating, this method was indeed beneficial for her. Moreover, it seemed to be the best solution at the moment.

However...

Yao Xinxin still didn't fully believe it. "Are you willingly giving me advice, or do you have some ulterior motive?"

Yao Bianliang helplessly replied, "Forget whether I have good intentions or not. Anyway, besides this plan, can you think of any other solutions?"

Yao Xinxin: "..."

It seemed that there really were no other options.

With this in mind, Yao Xinxin's conviction wavered slightly.

After all, the situation couldn't possibly become any worse. It's worth trying even if it's a desperate attempt.

Of course, Yao Xinxin didn't believe Yao Bianliang had good intentions. In her view, the other party must have some trick up her sleeve waiting for her.

But now she had no other choice.

Perhaps she could turn the tables and seize this opportunity to make a comeback?

With these thoughts in mind, Yao Xinxin finally sneered, "Alright, let's see what tricks you have up your sleeve."

Yao Bianliang, upon hearing this, finally showed a relieved smile.

That's right, my sister, you're thinking correctly. Can I deceive you?

Our goals have always been the same!

As long as we stand together as sisters, face adversity together, and advance or retreat together, what can't we achieve?

Yao Bianliang sincerely said, "Thank you, Yao Xinxin. As long as you cooperate with my actions, I think we can be good sisters."

Yao Xinxin: "..."

Who said we're good sisters?

Yao Bianliang, between you and me, it's either you die or I perish!

She gritted her teeth fiercely, "Enough! Just you wait!"

"Beep, beep, beep..."

Yao Bianliang slowly put down her phone after hearing the busy tone indicating the call had been disconnected.

The plan went too smoothly this time. She even felt like she hadn't exerted one-third of her effort, and Yao Xinxin had willingly accepted her advice.

Should she say Yao Xinxin truly lived up to her role as a foolish beauty daring to love and hate? She didn't hesitate at all and acted directly upon hearing her words.

Thinking that Yao Xinxin was probably holding her phone, instructing the water army and marketing accounts to start promoting, Yao Bianliang felt a surge of gratitude in her heart.

Look, while everyone else was constantly scheming against her, backstabbing her, only Yao Xinxin stood by her side, unwavering and united with her on the same front!

No matter what she said to Yao Xinxin, she could perfectly understand her intentions and follow her instructions.

Even after so many failures, this person still faced difficulties head-on and never gave up on making her cool.

What a spirit of constantly fighting, repeatedly losing and fighting again!

"Ah, Yao Xinxin truly deserves to be my good sister," Yao Bianliang couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

In fact, compared to Lu Yanchen, she preferred Yao Xinxin.

After all, Lu Yanchen, that smart, slick, and arrogant person, had once deeply betrayed her. On the other hand, Yao Xinxin, despite having low intelligence, had never truly betrayed her and always fulfilled her duty to help her become cool.

With this in mind, Yao Bianliang sent two emojis to Yao Xinxin.

Yao Bianliang: Hug.jpg

Yao Bianliang: Love you.jpg

System: "..."

Yao Xinxin probably thought this was sarcastic and got irritated again, but she replied with a smiling emoji.

Yao Bianliang was in a good mood and had no intention of arguing with her. She interpreted Yao Xinxin's smile as a kind gesture towards her.

"Well, Yao Xinxin seems to be taken care of. However, I can't completely trust her with everything," Yao Bianliang contemplated.

Yao Xinxin had the financial resources and capabilities, but her thinking was not the sharpest. In case she misunderstood Yao Bianliang's intentions or deviated from the plan during the actual execution, it would be a big problem.

Therefore, she had to have Zhou Fei and the others closely watch Yao Xinxin's every move.

This time, there couldn't be any more mistakes.

With that in mind, Yao Bianliang sent a message to Assistant Chen, explaining the tasks they needed to accomplish.
