Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Shooting Oneself in the Foot

As she watched Guo Quanyou erupt like thunder on the screen, Lu Jiawei lay on her hospital bed, not daring to utter a word for fear that attracting his attention would turn his anger toward her and result in all of it being vented on her.

This kind of thing had happened before, and Lu Jiawei had learned her lesson, not willing to be the scapegoat again and get scolded for no reason.

Guo Quanyou raged and yelled in the room for a full ten minutes before his anger finally seemed to subside a bit.

Feeling Guo Quanyou’s gaze suddenly turn toward her, Lu Jiawei’s heart skipped a beat, an ominous premonition creeping up on her.

To her surprise, she then saw Guo Quanyou stretch out his hand and command, "Give me your phone."

Lu Jiawei dared not resist, obediently picking up her phone from beside her pillow and handing it over to Guo Quanyou.

Guo Quanyou opened the phone app, entered a long string of numbers, and made the call.

"Hello, how’s it been lately? This is Guo Quanyou. No big deal, I just wanted to ask if you took the job for ’Dominating the World’?"

"No, good, I’ve got it, thanks for your time, carry on with your work."

The person Guo Quanyou was calling wasn’t anyone else but one of the other two famed directors in Great Xia besides himself.

After confirming that the new promotional clip for ’Dominating the World’ had nothing to do with this person, he called another to check, only to find out that he had no involvement either, being far overseas focused on winning awards, with no time to film ’Dominating the World’.

"If it’s not me, nor those two, then who made this promotional clip? Does Great Xia still have such a talent?" Guo Quanyou racked his brains but couldn’t figure out who the clip was made by.

"Ah!" He couldn’t help but roar again.

He almost smashed Lu Jiawei’s phone following his own, but he managed to hold back. After all, he only had one phone left, and if he shattered it again, he really would have nothing left to use.

Lu Jiawei remained silent, not daring to speak.

It was just a phone, after all, if it broke, she could buy another; there was no need to anger Guo Quanyou over a phone.

Then, Guo Quanyou looked at her again and asked, "Didn’t you find a group of media company before? I think they did a good job, what’s their contact information?"

"Sugar daddy, you’re not thinking of buying media company to smear ’Dominating the World’, are you?" Lu Jiawei felt that doing something like this was utterly thankless.

Currently, the new ’Dominating the World’ promotional clip’s reputation was overwhelmingly positive, and buying media company could very easily backfire.

"What do you mean smear? I just want to state the facts!" Guo Quanyou stubbornly said.

He definitely wouldn’t let JM Entertainment have an easy time with ’Dominating the World’!

Stating the facts, does that require buying media company?

Even though Lu Jiawei leaned toward Guo Quanyou, she still couldn’t believe this reasoning; it made no logical sense.

But who asked her to cling to this influential figure? Lu Jiawei withheld further comments and honestly gave Guo Quanyou the media company’s contact details.

Guo Quanyou immediately added the contact, outlined his needs, and made an initial payment of 500,000 as a fee.

The other party replied: Rest assured, the trending topics will be arranged within half an hour!

Seeing the reply, Guo Quanyou felt much more at peace.

He was eager to see how Chen Wei, Liu Meng, and JM Entertainment would handle his next move.

They definitely couldn’t cope with it!

Ten minutes later.

Guo Quanyou reopened the comment sections under the trending videos, and sure enough, the previously top-liked comments praising the new version were all pushed down.

They were replaced by the likes of ["I prefer Director Guo’s version, it seems to have more depth, more charm"], ["Ugh, you guys must be paid off, I don’t find it good, upvote if you agree"], ["How good can something made by someone who doesn’t even dare to leave a director’s name be?"], ["Trash, I definitely won’t be going to the cinema"], ["Ruining the classic!"], and the like.

Without exception, each of these comments had several hundred thousand likes.

Seeing the effect, Guo Quanyou was very satisfied, "Hahaha, not bad, not bad at all, these people are really efficient."

However, when Guo Quanyou refreshed the page again, those comments vanished in an instant, leaving only:

[What was with the hot comments just now? Did the media company step in?]

[Already reported, reply confirmed successful]

[I’m sure it’s the media company Guo Quanyou hired, disgusting]

[Yeah, who with clear eyes can’t see which side is better? Suddenly a few comments pop up, all with hundreds of thousands of likes, tsk tsk tsk, if they say those aren’t from the media company, who would believe that?]

...

Guo Quanyou’s once calmed emotions flared up again, so angry he couldn’t catch his breath.

He quickly opened the media company’s chat window and demanded, "What’s going on with you? Why were the comments deleted so quickly?"

Overseas New Media: To be honest, boss, the things you asked us to say were too much like setting the tone. It was obviously fake, who couldn’t see that the new version is better?

Overseas New Media: The officials don’t even need to verify, they can directly determine that it’s the media company setting the tone. Do you understand?

Guo Quanyou: What do you mean by that? Are you saying my film is crap? Not as good as theirs? That I don’t even qualify to compare?

Guo Quanyou: Refund! Refund now!

Overseas New Media: Sorry, we have already completed all the tasks you gave us as requested. A refund is impossible.

Guo Quanyou: Completed? Where? I can’t see them!

He began to throw a tantrum, playing the rogue.

Overseas New Media: It’s pointless to talk like this. We’ve also lost tens of thousands of dummy accounts because of this, who is going to bear that loss?

Guo Quanyou: That’s your problem, refund me now!

When he wanted to continue flooding the chat, he discovered that he had already been deleted and blocked by the other party.

"Damn it! These guys are too despicable, taking the money and not doing the job, and refusing to refund." Guo Quanyou had never seen such unreasonable people.

"..." Lu Jiawei, on the other hand, felt that it was Guo Quanyou who was being the unreasonable one, but she didn’t dare to say it.

This time, Guo Quanyou ranted for a full half-hour before stopping.

It wasn’t because he felt relieved, but because his mouth was dry and his throat was smoking, he simply couldn’t curse anymore, so he stopped.

"Godfather, drink some water." Lu Jiawei considerately handed him a cup of warm water.

Bang!

After gulping it down, Guo Quanyou raised the glass high and smashed it to the ground, shattering it into pieces.

What Guo Quanyou didn’t expect was that a shard of glass flew out and slashed a few centimeters deep, seven to eight centimeters long wound in his thigh, causing him to cry out in pain, "Doctor! Doctor!"

Afterward, Guo Quanyou was carried away to get disinfected and undergo suture surgery.

"..." Lu Jiawei finally understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.

Guo Quanyou lived up to his reputation as one of the three renowned directors, embodying that phrase to the fullest!

Bending over, Lu Jiawei picked up her phone from the ground with some difficulty.

She opened the forum again.

After seeing a new trending search, Lu Jiawei’s brain buzzed—she felt that Guo Quanyou might well ruin his late-life reputation! She might have no powerful legs to cling to anymore!
