Chapter 626: Popularity
Fu Hanzheng chuckled and asked, “What point?”
Seeing the well-dressed man in front of her, Gu Weiwei smiled and hugged him.
“Boyfriends are so precious, of course they are meant for kissing, hugging and liking. How can I let you do that sort of other work?”
Hearing her tone, Fu Hanzheng thought that she must have a way to deal with it herself, so he did not ask further.
“So Mrs. Fu, do you need me to pick you up after work?”
“Yes please.” Gu Weiwei nodded.
Fu Hanzheng kissed her lips. “I am leaving now.”
After he left, Gu Weiwei washed herself, got changed and went to Shiyi Culture.
Seeing her coming out of the elevator, Jolin rushed over and gave her the iPad.
“Oh my God, you are almost in the top ten of the hot search list.”
Gu Weiwei took it and started to browse through the mean comments about the movie.
“Do you know who did it?”
The opening ceremony of “Sleepless” did not invite the media and it was not publicized either.
They had not started the promotion yet but the news of their movie had already become so popular online.
It was obviously a movie that was going to be released at the same time and someone was having a fierce competition.
Jolin said, as he followed her, “I am afraid that it is your old friend again. Li Xing’er’s “I Met You in My Youth” has started to be promoted too…”
If these two sworn enemies, Ling Yan and Li Xing’er, were releasing their show and movie at the same time as her, it was obvious that they would slander her.
“I Met You in My Youth?” Gu Weiwei asked.
“It is a popular teen school novel that has been released in recent years. The writer asked Li Xing’er to play the female lead role.” Jolin explained to her as he walked.
The original novel was very popular and Li Xing’er had made her debut because of the teen movie.
Therefore, she was already very popular when the promotion started.
Gu Weiwei sat down in the meeting room and read the negative comments online.
[Where did she learn the directing course, when she did not even attend a single day of classes at the film school?]
[She wants to become a director after just two movies, does she really think that she is a genius?]
[She has no self-awareness and she can’t be the director, just whenever she wants to be!]
[Am I the only one who is curious about how bad this movie is going to be?]
[You are not alone.]
…
At a closer look, they were all passers-by and fans of some other stars.
They all thought that she had never studied film before and that she was too young and inexperienced, so they thought that the movie she made, “Sleepless”, was definitely going to be a terrible one.
She logged out of Weibo and asked Jolin, “Is the trailer finished?”
Jolin said, “It is done. Didn’t we plan to release it after the promotion starts?”
Gu Weiwei returned the iPad to him and said with a smile, “They have already made us so popular, of course we should use this opportunity to start the promotion.”
Even if they were trying to ruin her popularity, it was just popularity.
“Then should we release the trailer today?” Jolin asked.
It was not a bad idea to spread the rumors of her being in the movie.
“In three hours, release the trailer with my Weibo and the movie’s official Weibo account and ask the other actors to repost it.” Gu Weiwei said.
Jolin nodded in agreement. “Okay, I will talk to them later.”
Three hours later, she would have reached the climax of this wave of negative comments. Then she could use this wave of popularity to promote the movie.
She was indeed better at making use of an opportunity than anyone else.
