Chapter 1012: She Has a Good Company and Strong Backing
The scene was deathly silent, everyone looked at each other.One of the assistants came back to their senses, and with a start, their hand slipped, causing the custom-made gown they held to fall instantly to the floor.
The manager shouted angrily, "Pick it up, that’s sponsored by a brand!"
The assistant, flustered, quickly picked it up, repeatedly saying sorry.
The other assistants also looked uneasy, cautiously glancing at the shocked An Ruyi, softly saying, "Sister Ruyi... are... are you okay?"
An Ruyi seemed to be in her own world, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
After a silence of half a minute, An Ruyi seemed to have aged ten years, her trembling hands quickly taking out her phone and logging into Weibo.
She hadn’t even entered the official Weibo yet when the headline push notified everyone that Liu Weiyang had snatched Milans’ endorsement.
An Ruyi felt a wave of dizziness, almost fainting.
"How could it be Liu Weiyang? How could it be her? Not a single hint was leaked, how could they have chosen her?" An Ruyi shouted anxiously, almost hysterically.
Seeing the comment section, Liu Weiyang’s fans were celebrating as if it was a festival. A small newcomer, even though she had been quite popular recently, managing to beat a famous actress who had been in the industry for years, this was definitely something worth boasting about.
An Ruyi looked at the impolite comments from Liu Weiyang’s fans, shaking her hands in anger, repeatedly asking, "Why? What exactly is going on here?"
The people present were all dumbfounded; one assistant finally managed to squeeze out a bitter remark, "Didn’t Liu Weiyang do something? It’s not uncommon for female stars to sell themselves for an endorsement."
The manager immediately turned cold, "Liu Weiyang has been preparing for a new drama with the crew recently! Sell her body? If Liu Weiyang being with the crew counts as selling her body, what does Ruyi going to meet with the person in charge tomorrow count as?"
The assistant, scared by the manager’s words, quickly covered their mouth and didn’t dare to make a sound.
An Ruyi looked somewhat dazed at the comment section; more and more curious onlookers were joining in, almost everyone mocking her.
A renowned actress couldn’t compete with a newbie?
This was truly ridiculous!
Her reputation was completely ruined.
An Ruyi could already imagine how the entertainment media would rush to report this, how many people would sneer at her behind her back.
Just thinking about it made her feel a surge of embarrassment welling up inside, almost drowning her.
——"Oh my god, how could Liu Weiyang get the endorsement?"
——"Online suspicion of a shady deal? No matter how awesome Liu Weiyang is, she’s still a newbie, right? An Ruyi really lost face this time!"
——"Nonsense, just because a newcomer succeeds they have to have backing?"...
This was almost everyone’s first reaction: did Liu Weiyang take a shortcut?
An Ruyi herself couldn’t understand how Liu Weiyang, without taking shortcuts, managed to outcompete her.
An Ruyi hugged a pillow painfully, saying, "I heard from Milans’ person in charge that they were torn between choosing me or Liu Weiyang, because after analyzing all our data, Liu Weiyang and I were tied."
An Ruyi paused, "Since Liu Weiyang and I were tied in terms of data, and considering I’ve been in the industry for years with more popularity, why would they choose her?"
This was something An Ruyi couldn’t fathom.
The manager, holding the phone, seemed to have seen something, took a sharp breath and finally said, "Because... her company is good."
