Ji Jun was thinking from the perspective of a romantic brain. However, as a professional manager, Lin Zi saw more things from the operations of both sides.
“I’m afraid Su Long wants to hype up the male and female lead on-screen couple, so he created a ‘Su Yu Duo’. Yu Han didn’t agree and wasn’t willing to cooperate, so she pulled Yuan Fei over to hype it up and formed a ‘Flying Fish Besties’ best friend relationship to suppress Su Long’s ‘Su Yu Duo’.”
Ji Jun sneered. “If everyone could focus on the show, there wouldn’t be so many lousy movies.”
“It can’t be helped. This is the era of streaming media. Whether it’s movies, television dramas, or variety shows, they all like to play this game. The fans will fall for it too. If you don’t play along, you’ll suffer.”

For this, Ji Jun specially contacted Bai Chao on WeChat. [I heard that the production team has been quite lively recently because of the publicity for the television drama.]
Bai Chao trembled when he heard his sugar daddy’s call. He took out his cell phone in fear. After reading the message, he asked the assistant director at a loss, “Has our poor drama started publicity?”
The assistant director was also at a loss. “What publicity? What publicity?”
Bai Chao asked, “Don’t you know?”
The assistant director shook his head. “I don’t know. What should I know? You didn’t even give me money. How can I use it for publicity?”
That’s right. Best Actor Ji did not even give them the publicity fee. How could the production team promote it?
Hence, Bai Chao pretended to be stupid and replied to Ji Jun, “Is the publicity about to start now? If that’s the case, I might have to advance the publicity fee from you.”
One had to know that all their funds had been invested into filming. There was no more money in the production team’s accounts.
When Ji Jun saw Bai Chao’s reply, he knew that he probably did not know about the hype created by the main leads. Those should be the spontaneous actions of artists. Hence, he replied, “There’s no need to rush the publicity. We’ll worry about it after the drama is filmed and edited and we get the release license.”
Bai Chao could only do as he was told. However, after ending his conversation with Ji Jun, he said to the assistant director, “Go and check if there’s a problem.”
Although Ji Jun was a little nitpicky about the script, he usually did not interfere in the production team’s matters. He was considered a very convenient investor. There should be a reason why he suddenly did this today. Hence, something must have happened in the publicity that he did not know.
The assistant director went to investigate when he heard that. Then, he told Bai Chao about the two on-screen duos.
After reading the two websites, Bai Chao was a little speechless and helpless. He complained to the assistant director, “What do you think this is?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was also at this moment that he remembered that Su Long’s manager had talked to him about this previously. However, he remembered that he had already rejected him clearly at that time. Why did this still happen?
Wasn’t there trouble now?
He didn’t like the fact that Su Long was hyping up the on-screen couple, and Yu Han probably wasn’t happy either, let alone Ji Jun.
As for the Flying Fish Besties, they were both women. Bai Chao thought that Ji Jun probably wouldn’t mind. After all, there was a long tradition of hyping up bestie relationships in the industry. Although they were mostly plastic besties, there were also a group of fixed fans who liked this.
Hence, the purpose of Ji Jun’s special reminder should still be “Su Yu Duo”.
Bai Chao rubbed his chin and wondered if he should continue to pretend to be blind or warn Su Long. In the end, Bai Chao chose the latter. After all, the sugar daddy was the most important.
Hence, after Bai Chao finished filming a scene, he specially avoided people and called Li Bing away. He told him about what had happened recently. “I know that you’re also thinking about our production team regarding this publicity, but you know the rules in the industry. The production team must have communicated with the actors to implement publicity, let alone something that involves both the male and female leads.”
Things that involved publicity would usually be written into the contract when artists signed contracts. For example, whether it involved online publicity, including live-streams, posts, reposts, and so on. It could also be said that it would be very detailed, even to the extent of the number of publicity deals..
