The group was kicked out, and low presence means they are bad?

Magic City.

Useek headquarters building.

Chu Liya looked at the comments on Weibo that slandered Bai Xingjian and couldn't help but sigh:
"Bai Xingjian is quite patient. Domestic netizens were making such a fuss, but he didn't respond at all."

"I guess he thought he could keep quiet and keep things quiet."

Sitting on the leather sofa, Hong Xingrong sipped his tea happily:
"When this kind of thing happened in the past, many celebrities chose to remain silent. After all, if they choose to respond, wouldn't that just give netizens another opportunity to target them?"

"Indeed, Bai Xingjian's current silence is the best solution." Ding Yuntao said with a smile.

Recently, the promotion and marketing activities for "Spirit Lord" have been very enthusiastic.

The drama "Spirit Lord" has aroused discussion among the whole nation even before it was aired.

This kind of situation has never happened before when promoting a new drama.

If not for this, Chu Liya, Hong Xingrong, Ding Yuntao and others would not be in such a good mood as they are now.

"I can only say that we really have to thank Bai Xingjian for the idea. If it weren't for his offline promotion of Squid Game, which caused such a big stir in Coria and even internationally, we probably wouldn't have adopted his offline promotion method."

Hong Xingrong said with emotion.

After he finished speaking, he grinned and said, "In this case, we should thank Bai Xingjian!"

"We should indeed thank him!" Chu Liya nodded with a teasing tone.

"How about we post a thank you speech?" Ding Yuntao raised his eyebrows.

"I think it's OK." Chu Liya was eager to try.

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to open it so close to the face?" Hong Xingrong was still a little hesitant.

Giving a thank-you speech reminded Hong Xingrong of the cool operation done by the main creators of the movie "Survivor" under Baina Films when Phoenix Film's "All or Nothing" was just released.

It is really cool to use the big move close to the opponent at the beginning.

But what about the follow-up boomerang?

Isn’t the movie “Survivor” a good example?
It was a movie that was originally intended to have a box office of 3 billion, but in the end, the box office results were less than 800 million.

Although the reason why the movie "Survivor" had such a poor box office performance is definitely not just the boomerang that hit back after the close-range attack.

But if the creators of "Survivor" hadn't shot the movie right in front of Bai Xingjian, the box office of this movie would definitely be more than 800 million.

Hong Xingrong expressed his concerns to Chu Liya and Ding Yuntao.

Chu Liya was not worried at all: "This is a different time, Brother Xingrong! Bai Xingjian is now standing on the opposite side of the Chinese audience. Does he still have hope of turning the tables?
All we can say is that the probability of Bai Xingjian turning the tables is less than one in ten thousand.

I think you have seen the reputation of Bai Xingjian on Weibo these days. If this happened in real life, even a passing dog would probably chase Bai Xingjian and bite him a few times.

Bai Xingjian is already in this state, do you still expect him to throw any powerful boomerang?
The best scenario for him now is that Squid Games does not cause any waves in the Corea market, and then he returns to China quietly with his tail between his legs and continues to concentrate on creating his work.

During this process, if Bai Xingjian dared to come out and make a scene, the domestic audience would probably spit at him and make him unable to control himself. "

"Sister Leah is right!"

Ding Yuntao agreed with Chu Liya's statement. "Bai Xingjian really has nothing to be afraid of right now, and the domestic audiences are on our side! We have the support of the domestic audiences!"

"That's right!"

Chu Liya also took advantage of the situation and continued, "Moreover, Squidward will also face competition from Limitless in Coria. I don't need to say much about the trailer for Limitless, as every frame is filled with visual effects. So what can Squidward use to compete with Limitless? Bai Xingjian has completely screwed up this time!"

After hearing what they said, Hong Xingrong really felt that this was the truth.

There is a 99% chance that Bai Xingjian has no chance of turning things around this time.

"In that case, why don't we quietly send a thank-you letter?" Hong Xingrong said tentatively.

"I've been waiting for you to say this, Brother Hong!"

Chu Liya said happily, her face full of excitement.

Obviously, Chu Liya was particularly happy to have a chance to mock Bai Xingjian.

"Brother Hong is wise! Brother Hong is mighty!"

The same was true for Ding Yuntao standing next to him.

Come to think of it, after being suppressed by Bai Xingjian for such a long time, now that he finally has the opportunity to fight back, why not seize it?
"Don't be too excited. You still need to be careful with your wording and don't make your intentions too obvious." Hong Xingrong reminded with a smile.

Of course, this is also a very happy thing for Hong Xingrong.

After all, that person is Bai Xingjian!
……

3 month 30 day.

There are only two days left until the three dramas "Lord of the Rings", "Squidward" and "Limitless" are released on Netflix.

It was on this day that the official account of "Ling Jue" released a letter of thanks.

The content of this thank-you letter is generally very normal.

However, at the end, there are two passages that are particularly out of place, and the content directly points to Bai Xingjian:

[Special thanks to Bai Xingjian, whose creativity and courage in the promotion of "Squid Game" provided valuable ideas and inspiration for the promotion of "Spirit Lord".

Although Bai Xingjian is Chinese, he used the culture of Coria to create a film and television drama that has attracted global attention. This is very admirable. We are also deeply inspired by this and hope to work together in the future to create a new chapter in Chinese film and television. 】

There is actually nothing wrong with what was said in the previous paragraph, because it is the fact.

But when the words came to the second paragraph, the weirdness revealed between the lines was no longer something that could be acted out.

After seeing these contents, netizens with sharp eyes were instantly outraged.

Not long after this thank-you letter was sent out, it became a hot topic on Weibo and started to climb the list.

#Thank you letter from "Ling Jue"#
Under this entry, many netizens participated in the discussion.

Of course, the focus of netizens' discussion is naturally Bai Xingjian, who was mentioned in the thank-you letter, and "Squid Game".

[That's absolutely right! If it weren't for the publicity activities that Bai Xingjian organized for the drama "Squid Game", "Spiritual Lord" probably wouldn't have copied it and achieved the "student surpasses the master" operation. 】

[That’s true! ]

[Bai Xingjian, you were also once admired and supported by thousands of people! ]

[No, did you only read the first paragraph about Bai Xingjian? The second paragraph is not a thank you at all, it is obviously a naked mockery! ]

[I can only say that the official launch of the group by "Ling Jue" is really amazing! 】

[Although it is difficult to understand why Bai Xingjian used the culture of Corea to film "Squid Game", the way the "Lingjue" official mocked Bai Xingjian and "Squid Game" is also a bit disgusting. ]

[Is this also considered sarcasm? Isn't this a statement of fact? If simply stating the facts is considered sarcasm, then I can only say that you, Bai Xingjian's fans, are quite sensitive.]

[Oh my, you know I’m a fan of Bai Xingjian? It seems you’re quite sensitive to Bai Xingjian’s fans! ]

[Well, these are just tricks used by the entertainment industry to generate hype. If you netizens are really misled by these people in the entertainment industry, you will be doomed for the rest of your lives.]

[The thing I regret most in my life is letting your mother have you! ] [They are really bullying "Squid Game" because it cannot be released in China. What if "Squid Game" is lifted from the ban one day? Will "Spirit Lord" still dare to step on Bai Xingjian like this? Will it still dare to step on "Squid Game"? ]

[I’m stepping on you idiots who sell domestic products for export! 】

[That’s right! Why, you’re not convinced? ]

[Hahaha, Bai Xingjian is a Chinese, but he went to shoot something from Coria, and then it was banned in China. It’s not unfair for him to be stepped on by “Spirit Lord”! ]

[Let’s quarrel! Let’s quarrel! ]

……

"Ahhh! Why is the official version of "Spiritual Lord" like this?"

In the girls’ dormitory of Linjiang Normal University, Wang Peini wailed.

She couldn't believe the scene in front of her. Even the official account of "Ling Jue" started to open up its voice towards Bai Xingjian's face.

"Not bad, not bad. YouTV has really started to stir up trouble. I thought they would wait until "Squid Game", "Limitless" and "Spiritual Lord" were broadcast before stirring up trouble. I didn't expect that they couldn't hold back!"

Liu Yue was quite calm when she said this.

Obviously this had been anticipated.

Lai Jie snorted coldly, "I guess they think Bai Xingjian has no chance of fighting back, otherwise they wouldn't be so obviously sarcastic and attack him right in front of them."

“What a familiar feeling!”

Luo Xi also sighed at this moment: "The last time Bai Xingjian got close to him was when the main creators of the movie "Survivor". What happened then was really disappointing. I hope the main creators of "Spiritual Lord" will experience the same experience this time!"

As loyal fans of Bai Xingjian, Luo Xi, Lai Jie and others naturally support Bai Xingjian very much.

“I can only say it’s very difficult.”

Although she didn't really want to say this, Liu Yue still said it: "Compared to last time, Bai Xingjian's chances of turning the tide this time can only be described as extremely small."

As for the reason, Luo Xi, Lai Jie and Wang Pei Ni all knew it without Liu Yue explaining it.

"Well, there's no point in talking so much now. Let's wait until April 4st to see the truth!"

Lai Jie does not want to discuss this topic too much at the moment.

Because the only hope left in her heart was still waiting for them to open in the future.

"Xiao Jiejie is right! We'll see the truth on April 4st!"

Wang Peini clenched her fists tightly, as if she was pinning all her hopes on April 4st.

Rossi also nodded heavily: "I hope so!"

……

Neon.

Tokyo.

Mitsui Film Building.

"Is the Internet in China so lively recently?"

Bei Shan Ya sat in front of the computer screen, looking at the hot searches on Weibo about "Spirit Lord" and Bai Xingjian, and the expression on his face gradually became strange.

"Aren't they from the same country? Why are they quarreling?" Kitayama Masa expressed his incomprehension.

"It's obvious that there is competition among stakeholders."

Jingdao shouted and laughed, "But no matter how much fun they have, compared to our "Never Ending", they are nothing but existences not worthy of carrying our shoes."

"I thought that Youshi Film and Phoenix Pictures would help each other in a friendly way, but they turned against each other. It's really a wonderful show."

Kitayama Masa said with a smile: "If that's the case, then it seems that "Squid Game" and "Spirit Lord" are also vulnerable."

Unlike the enthusiastic promotional activities for "Squidward" and "Lord of the Rings", "Limitless" produced by Mitsui Pictures and Netflix basically had no offline promotional activities.

The reason is actually very simple, because they don't need these to add heat to "Limitless".

This is the confidence that comes from the strong.

As for promotion and marketing, a trailer will be enough.

"Indeed."

Jingdao shouted and nodded with a smile, "In less than two days, our "Never Ending" will be released and broadcast. At that time, the focus of the audience all over the world will be on our "Never Ending".

"Squidward" and "Spirit Lord" are just stepping stones for us to reach the top."

This seemingly outrageous speech was deeply praised by Kitayama Masayuki.

She smiled and said: “After the launch on April 4, the debate on the Chinese Internet, the debate on the Corea Internet, and the related debate on the international Internet can all be ended.

Let us, "Never Ending", put an end to this farce!"

……

Corea.

Jiangnan District.

Bai Xingjian naturally also saw the thank-you letter from the official account of "Ling Jue".

Although Bai Xingjian frowned slightly at this moment, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The official thank-you letter from "Ling Jue" is quite interesting." Bai Xingjian sighed with a smile.

"You can still laugh at this time."

Feng Shiqi frowned and clenched his smooth white hands into fists. It was obvious that he really wanted to give the person who wrote this thank-you letter a beating.

Mei Jie coughed at this time, and then pinched her throat and said in a serious manner: "You can ridicule me if you want. Anyway, Squid Game is made for the audience, not for those people in Spirit Lord. When April 4st comes, let the work speak for itself."

After she finished speaking, Mei Jie looked at Bai Xingjian with a quirky look, and then asked Feng Shiqi:
"Sister Shiqi, do you think I can imitate Brother Xingjian?"

Feng Shiqi couldn't help but burst out laughing, "That's really alike."

Bai Xingjian rolled his eyes at Mei Jie this time and said unhappily, "Mei Jie, you've really become more and more naughty recently."

"There's nothing I can do."

Mei Jie said helplessly: "I'm unfamiliar with the place, and I'm too lazy to go out to play, so I can only stay in this house and stay here every day. Then I can only find some fun to play."

Just as Mei Jie said, they have been staying at home these days and have hardly gone out.

"In that case, let's have some fun."

Bai Xingjian smiled, picked up the phone on the coffee table, and opened Weibo. (End of this chapter)
