How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 11 Trailer

Jiang Yu looked at the song he was going to cover in the next episode, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Hu Tiange, from his memory, he also knew that this guy had been pursuing Su Muwan, one of his ex-girlfriends, for a long time without success. In this case, he was considered a love rival.

Moreover, from the looks in Xu Ya and the others' eyes, Jiang Yu could also tell what they were thinking.

Putting aside the relationship between Hu Tian and Su Muwan, I'd cover Hu Tianwang's song. If I wasn't careful, it would definitely get me into trouble. Because the Tianwang has a huge fan base, and this song is one of Hu Tian's most famous love songs. If I didn't cover it successfully, I'd probably be scolded to death given my current predicament.

But...

Jiang Yu smiled. He had nothing to fear right now. There was still some time before the second recording. He could use this time to get back in shape, improve his singing skills, and strive for a better performance next time.

The recording of the first episode has ended, and the post-production has begun. It will be scheduled for online broadcast soon.

The production team was quite quick to act, and while it was a bit unfair, the pay arrived promptly. The day after the first episode was recorded, the 2.5 million yuan pay was deposited into Jiang Yu's account.

Now, Jiang Yu could finally take a break. Although he still had a long way to go to get out of his 20 million yuan debt, at least he could live a better life now. Before, he was broke and had to sell his house to participate in the show. If the production team hadn't reimbursed his airfare and provided him with accommodation, he would probably have been sleeping on the streets.

The program team provided accommodation until the end of the program recording. Although it was not a closed program recording, there were still artists living here besides Jiang Yu.

Sometimes I have a lot of announcements, so I'll go and catch them during my downtime. Sometimes I don't have many, or the announcements are right here, so I'll stay here.

Artists like Jiang Yu, whose reputations have been ruined, now have no announcements at all, except for the show "The Voice of God." So, with nowhere else to go, they just stay here, staying in a hotel, practicing songs every day, checking Weibo and short videos, and reading the comments and private messages from those who are scolding them online, as well as the comments and private messages from the trolls who have now turned their guns on them.

There are many people scolding him now, including his former true fans, fans of his three big star ex-girlfriends, and some passersby. But now, his former black fans and black fans are frantically defending him.

How does the saying go, the more it was criticized in the past, the more it is protected now.

Although Jiang Yu also knew that many people were just playing with memes, this situation was still relatively good for him. The current situation can only be said to be a swap between true fans and haters. But it is acceptable. After all, controversy brings traffic and popularity.

Especially these little black fans, now they are allies, Jiang Yu must grasp them. Even if it is just a meme, as long as it can bring him popularity and traffic, it's fine. Now, he only has popularity and traffic as a bargaining chip.

So from time to time, Jiang Yu would post on Weibo, watching the little haters, the current fans who had turned haters, and the many haters arguing in the comment section. Sometimes, he would even go to the comment section to interact with the little haters, directly stirring up the controversy.

In the past two days, the program team has been working overtime to edit the first episode and has also started releasing a preview trailer online.

The trailers were edited during the recording of the first episode, about three minutes in total, including interviews with the guests before the game and the fierce competition among the guests during the official recording.

The trailer is definitely very attractive, and the most controversial and talked-about part is the clip in which the program team shows Jiang Yu's answers in the pre-match interview about his relationships with several celebrity girlfriends.

Although it was only a simple clip, and the names of Jiang Yu's three celebrity girlfriends were not mentioned at all, during this period, Jiang Yu's scandal had caused a lot of uproar. Although it was not mentioned, everyone could easily associate this issue with it.

The program team, in order to attract attention and create topics, directly released this interview clip. They even edited Jiang Yu's video separately later. Perhaps they felt that this was too obvious, so after releasing Jiang Yu's interview clip separately, they added the interview clips of other guests.

After seeing this, Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh. The Mango TV production team was truly ruthless, completely losing their composure. But there was nothing he could do. They had invited him to the show because they valued his popularity. To put it bluntly, a star like him, whose reputation had been ruined, was being invited to the show just to squeeze out his surplus value.

Moreover, at first glance, this time, the program crew did not mention their three big-name ex-girlfriends at all, but instead took advantage of the popularity of Su Muwan, Yang Xue, and Song Yuqing.

As soon as this preview trailer came out, it immediately became a hot topic.

"Heaven-sent singing preview!"

"Jiang Yu actually went to Tianci's singing voice!"

"Jiang Yu responds to multiple relationships for the first time!"

"Jiang Yu denies having three affairs at once!"

"Why doesn't this damn scumbag Jiang Yu get out of the entertainment industry?"

……

Entries like this were frequently searched, especially those related to Jiang Yu, which saw their popularity soar. Among them, Jiang Yu's response to his relationships with Su Muwan, Yang Xue, and Song Yuqing was the most popular.

Clicking on this trending search will take you to a clip of Jiang Yu’s pre-match interview, in which he responded.

"Yes, but let me clarify, I'm with them as normal boyfriends and girlfriends, and there's no such thing as having multiple relationships at the same time."

Jiang Yu's answer immediately triggered heated discussions among netizens and a group of onlookers.

"Ah? No, what he meant was that he and Yang Xue, Su Muwan, and Song Yuqing were all in normal relationships? There wasn't any of that online gossip about him cheating or having multiple affairs?"

"Looking at the situation, it seems like hey, they're all from the entertainment industry, and this guy's reputation has been ruined for so long, and I haven't seen the real boss come out to step on him or anything like that, so I guess it's true."

"Ahhh! I get so angry when I think about my goddess being taken away by this scumbag!"

"Tsk, after all that talk, he's still a scumbag. He's playing with the feelings of three girls, and in my eyes, he's still a scumbag!"

"Bah! Just because this scumbag cheated on my goddess, I can't possibly forgive him!"

"No, buddy, you've dated Su Muwan, Yang Xue, and Song Yuqing? Damn it! Please, now that your relationship has collapsed, don't get involved in the entertainment industry. Start a live broadcast class. I will definitely come to support you."
