Chapter 1083: 1071 Reality World [36] Special Situation Bureau (first update)
Sister Jiang looked around the office at everyone who was looking at her.
She couldn’t help but wipe her face, "Sorry, our Shaohua has a bad temper."
The office staff quickly waved their hands in dismissal. Previously, they had treated Sister Jiang with an all-business attitude, but now, after this incident, they were immediately cordial and polite, "Not at all, not at all."
The few people in the workspace felt a lingering fear.
They began to wonder if they had ever offended Ye Shaohua before.
Then they looked at the nearly paralyzed Weibo, feeling mixed emotions. The company’s higher-ups had said they would promote Ye Shaohua with the best treatment; they didn’t expect that before the heat they’re arranging started, Ye Shaohua had already stirred up such popularity on her own.
And at this thought, they couldn’t help but worry.
Would their Ancestors disapprove of the promotional efforts they arranged later?
After all, no matter how hard they worked to create buzz for Ye Shaohua, it couldn’t compare to the frenzy she had created.
**
Each of the Weibo posts about Ye Shaohua could independently dominate the trending topics for a day.
Nual Magazine, which only produced a personal magazine for one star every year,
This year, most people had assumed it would be Rong Fei, but no one had expected Nual Magazine to personally step in to defend Ye Shaohua.
As if that weren’t enough, Rong Corporation’s official website announced a signing, and it wasn’t just any contract, they actually signed an S contract with Ye Shaohua.
Most importantly, the outcome involving Best Actor Lin and Director Jin, both of whom are legendary figures in the Entertainment Circle, rarely post on Weibo. Lin He’s contributions to Flower Country’s film industry have been immense; even when Weibo is harsh, very few people dare to smear Lin He.
He is also Flower Country’s actor with the highest international achievements to date.
Put it this way, if Ye Shaohua is the Top-grade traffic among the newer generation,
Then Lin He is the untouchable queen on the shrine, the flower perched atop a high cliff.
If Weibo didn’t crash upon these two clashing, that would truly be a problem.
It is precisely because of this drive that many passersby, who once looked down on "top-grade traffic," began to educate themselves on Ye Shaohua’s two films.
Both films were produced with the intention of making money and were very commercial.
The male lead and the supporting actress were both standard traffic magnets. Ye Shaohua in these films was a fresh stream. Before, some people didn’t understand why Ye Shaohua won Best Actress, but after witnessing her effortless acting, they finally believed that some people are indeed favored by fortune.
Ye Shaohua’s popularity soared to a frightening degree.
Her Weibo followers shot up to over sixty million.
And the video that Men Shanshan had deliberately used to slander her looked ridiculously poor in comparison.
Her carefully crafted persona of a Top Student beauty almost instantly collapsed.
Her followers, which were about to reach ten million, suddenly dropped to nine million, and her Weibo was filled with a tide of abuse. Some even speculated that she had clung to the powerful to nudge Ye Shaohua out.
Even worse, there were those who dug up her past of snatching resources from Ye Shaohua.
These fans, who had already felt immense indignation on behalf of Ye Shaohua, immediately stormed Star City Entertainment’s Official Weibo.
"I’ve always been suspicious of why Ancestor Ye suddenly terminated her contract with Star City Entertainment, and it turns out her resources were stolen by Men Shanshan. Did you all forget how Star City Entertainment started? When Shaohua first entered the Entertainment Circle, the boss signed a contract with her, and later when her first TV drama unexpectedly became a hit, even when others tried to poach her with exorbitant contracts, she didn’t leave. Remember what she said in an interview at the time? She said, ’As long as Star City needs me, I will not leave.’"
"To promote a clown and displace Ye Shaohua? And to pay media to smear her? What was she accused of being two months ago? Isn’t it just because you’re bullying our Lady for not having any strong backing?"
"She said she was a loner type player with no teammates, and I believed it."
"Star City Entertainment, please, for once, be decent and part on amicable terms."
"No, really... I don’t understand Star City Entertainment’s recent moves... Did someone put a curse on you all?"
Star City Entertainment’s attempt at stirring up popularity backfired, leaving itself stinking of scandal.
Not only Men Shanshan’s Weibo was overrun, but all of Star City Entertainment’s official Weibo accounts were occupied by Ye Shaohua’s fans.
Piece by piece, the evidence was dug up by netizens on Weibo.
The Netizens already harbored a strong aversion to such underhanded rules. With one after another joining the fray against Star City, Star City Entertainment couldn’t even withdraw the trending topics with money fast enough.
The losses were countless.
"Is this the ’nothing will go wrong’ you assured me?" In one of Star City Entertainment’s workspaces, Manager Wen furiously slammed down the cup in his hand, scattering pieces everywhere. He roared at the Public Relations Department and Men Shanshan’s team, "What on earth is going on with Ye Shaohua? Wasn’t the news of her lacking a spirit of contract supposed to be leaked by you? How come Rong Corporation still signed her? And what about Director Jin? Why is Lin He speaking up for her?!"
"We did our best, you know. Ye Shaohua is top-grade traffic. Playing these games with her is like flirting with death! Really, I don’t get it. The decision-makers must be out of their minds to let top-grade traffic break a contract," muttered a pudgy man softly.
Though his voice was low, the silence in the workspace made it stand out significantly.
Everyone roughly caught what he said.
Men Shanshan was already unstable, and as these words came out,
her face turned ghostly pale, and by now, she dared not even look at the comments under her Weibo anymore.
There’s no need to guess; most of what’s below are curses.
Manager Wen clenched his teeth, "Whose side are you really on?"
The chubby boy immediately bowed his head and remained silent.
"Director Chen, what should we do now?" Manager Wen turned to Chen Xumin, who was sitting by the window, and asked softly.
Chen Xumin had set his heart on promoting Men Shanshan. Over this period, he had spent a fortune on her. Now that this incident had occurred, they still had to wait for Chen Xumin’s decision.
To hire a Water Army to whitewash Men Shanshan was not impossible at this point.
But that would require a lot of money to hire the Public Relations Department.
It would be at least an eight-figure sum, and that was just the base price. The subsequent hype would require even more money. At the moment, to push Men Shanshan, Star City Entertainment had already spent a lot of resources, and now they would have to spend a large sum again.
Manager Wen didn’t show it on his face, but inside he was somewhat regretting letting Ye Shaohua go so easily back then. Her online influence was still strong.
But regretting now was of no use; solving the problem was the most crucial thing. The best scenario would be to dig up some dirt on Ye Shaohua, which would significantly reduce the attention on Men Shanshan.
Everyone was waiting for Chen Xumin’s response, even Men Shanshan herself, who was looking at Chen Xumin with teary eyes that evoked sympathy.
However, Chen Xumin didn’t look at her. He just stared at the Weibo page, and after a long while, he said, "Forget it."
His gaze was a bit dazed.
With those three indifferent words, Men Shanshan felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stood in place as Chen Xumin passed by her, not looking at her or comforting her, and walked straight out the door.
The people in the Workspace saw Men Shanshan’s pale face and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
The staff members of Men Shanshan’s team were at a loss.
Especially the makeup artists who had previously worked with Ye Shaohua, they scrolled through Ye Shaohua’s trending searches on Weibo like they were self-flagellating, going over the posts by Rong Corporation and the retweets by director Lin He several times.
Then they compared it with the ninety thousand fans cursing Men Shanshan on her Weibo.
Their feelings were indescribably complex, especially the makeup artists. Clutching their phones, they stared at the increasingly commented-on Weibo posts.
The makeup artist had been with Ye Shaohua for two years and was very clear about her lack of powerful connections. In the Entertainment Circle, Ye Shaohua’s only real backing could be said to be Star City Entertainment. When Chen Xumin lost interest in Ye Shaohua, Men Shanshan believed Ye Shaohua had no way out.
So when Ye Shaohua breached her contract with Star City Entertainment, the makeup artist outright refused Sister Jiang’s invitation, thinking that following Men Shanshan would lead her to a skyrocketing career.
But what she didn’t expect at all was that Ye Shaohua, having left Star City Entertainment, would defy expectations.
All of a sudden, the makeup artist remembered a comment she had just seen—"Ye Shaohua, unbounded by Star City Entertainment, will climb even higher."
She saw that Sister Jiang and the young Assistant’s Weibo followers had increased by tens of thousands.
If she was still Ye Shaohua’s makeup artist...
She bit her teeth and simply turned off her phone, but she couldn’t focus on her work anymore.

On this side, Ye Shaohua was looking at her Weibo.
"A lone wolf player? Your fans know you quite well," Sister Jiang came in and saw the most liked comment on the screen of Ye Shaohua’s phone. "But your fans really protect their cub. Do you know what others are saying? Now it’s Ye Shaohua’s era on Weibo."
"Yeah, they are great," Ye Shaohua’s smile was always tinged with a refreshing coolness.
Sister Jiang laughed as well, "You’re good to them too. You agree to anything they ask."
After discussing this, Sister Jiang brought up the official business. "We’ll do a rehearsal the day after tomorrow for Entertainment Clash. Then it’s the live broadcast on Saturday night. I’ll give you the script now."
She handed over the script to Ye Shaohua.
Entertainment Clash was a popular variety show with a live audience of a thousand people.
The script had strict requirements. The on-site director and artists didn’t dare to mess around, but there were two experienced hosts on the show who saved the day in time, avoiding any major mishaps.
Ye Shaohua flipped through the script and signaled that she understood.
At that moment, her phone buzzed.
Lately, many people had been messaging Ye Shaohua, not just on Whatsapp but also on Twitter.
A message popped up at the top of the phone.
Ye Shaohua, who had been glancing at it indifferently, suddenly paused upon seeing the message.
She picked up her phone to unlock it and opened the page.
