Chapter 92 - 92 The Koi System
92 The Koi System
Aunty Li could only nod her head in resignation, and tears of weakness flowed out of her eyes.
The man released his hand smugly and looked at the woman who was coughing on the bed. It was as if he had seen the beautiful girl who had suddenly appeared in front of his house and had been conquered by him on his bed.
He Miao finished her work, but Xu Meng continued to work through the night with her classmates in post-production. They finally completed the editing and uploaded her work before the deadline for the competition.
The appearance of the short campus drama immediately caused a heated discussion on the internet.
The netizens recognized at a glance that the female lead of this drama was the champion of the fragrance-making competition, who had gone viral on the internet some time ago!
For a time, many veterans in the fragrance industry who did not like this kind of theme started to pay attention to this short drama.
Because He Miao and Jing Yan appeared at the same time, the short series caused a huge stir. It quickly became popular on the internet and ranked first among all the participating works.
Coincidentally, a school-themed movie that was released at the same time was being broadcasted in the cinema. The female lead was He Miao’s sister, He Wei.
The two of them were inevitably compared by netizens.
“Sister Weiwei, these are the comments on the internet. I didn’t expect our movie’s box office sales to be because of an unknown short drama! And their score actually surpassed ours! That group of students doesn’t even know how to film, how can they be compared to our big budget movie!”
The assistant handed the phone to He Wei, who was still resting on the set, and said indignantly, “Sis, is this really your sister?”
He Wei watched the scene of He Miao and Jing Yan kissing in the completed video and felt her breath stop. The seeds of suspicion were buried in her heart and sprouted.
The two of them were still interacting with each other sweetly on the phone, and the audience was screaming in the comments.
He Wei could not stand it anymore and returned the phone to her assistant. She frowned and said with a dark expression, “Yes, but I didn’t expect her to film something like this at this time.”
“Sis, you have to ask your sister when you get home.” The assistant advised anxiously. “I think she’s up to no good and wants to compete with you! You don’t know, but she’s very popular now, and many companies have taken a fancy to her face. I heard that even the senior management of the company you wanted to sign the most before has the same idea!”
“I know.” He Wei finished recording the show with a face full of displeasure and called her manager. “What should I do? I heard that more and more people are starting to pay attention to my sister. Will this affect the reputation of our movie?”
“That’s for sure.” The manager pondered for a moment, then sighed. “But don’t worry, I’ve already arranged for paid commenters to promote the show. I won’t let it affect you winning the best female lead award!”
“That’s good.” He Wei heaved a long sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and dragged her exhausted body home.
Zhong Fei was sitting on the sofa and looking at her phone angrily. When she saw her return, she quickly pulled her arm and said, “Weiwei, look at that shameless little girl. She’s not studying in school and is filming this kind of thing! The people online are so blind to say that she’s prettier than you!”
“Mom, don’t say anymore. my manager said that he would control the public opinion on the internet and try not to affect me.” He Wei sighed and leaned back on the sofa, deep in thought.
When Zhong Fei heard that she had no intention of dealing with He Miao, she immediately advised her anxiously, “How come you don’t seem to have any sense of danger? Didn’t you see who was the male lead in that drama? How did the two of them get together! How could Jing Yan act in a short film? There’s definitely something fishy about this!”
This was also what He Wei was worried about. With Jing Yan’s status, it was impossible for him to have any thoughts of entering the entertainment industry. However, this time, he uncharacteristically took on the role of the male lead in a campus love-themed short drama, and even kissed with He Miao in the drama.
She did not dare to think about it anymore. Now that He Miao had moved out, she could not monitor He Miao’s movements like she used to, and this made her very annoyed.
He Wei sat up and looked determinedly at Jing Yan on the screen, whose eyes were filled with love. Her heart tightened. ‘I’ll go and ask He Miao. If she really goes back on her word and plans to snatch Jing Yan from me, I won’t let her off so easily.’
She closed her eyes and activated the koi system, which could only be used once a day.
