Chapter 110 - 110: Lu Shiyuan Is Worth It

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Lu Corporation was very prominent, but this also meant they were very susceptible to attacks.

The PR department had been paying attention to the internet the entire night.

They were afraid that someone would boost the trending topic in the middle of the night and cause trouble.

But surprisingly, nothing happened on the trending list for the entire night.

Although they had detected that some netizens had given the Lu Corporation’s dramas and movies one-star ratings, they did not take them to heart.

Every time something like this happened in the entertainment industry, there would always be someone who would give the affected company’s work one-star ratings.

This kind of thing was inevitable and would not affect the overall situation.

At 9 0’clock sharp.

The topic #a million one-star ratings climbed to the top of the search rankings.

Jiang Tang was the first verified user to post this topic on Weibo.

Sugar Ginger: [#a million one-star ratings! Wow! :screenshot: :screenshot:

:screenshot: :screenshot:]

The commenters were quick to reply.

[Wow! This batch of netizens is pretty awesome.]

[Wow! This is a big event that can be recorded in the history of the entertainment industry.]

[Wow! Is this the retribution of a scumbag? ]

[But Lin Shanchu is also a shareholder of the company. Isn’t this bad for her?] Jiang Tang posted a reply to that comment. [She knows what to do.]

Only Lin Shanchu knew if the situation was advantageous for her or not.

After that, the verified users who were familiar with Jiang Tang also reposted the Weibo post.

More and more people started commenting on the topic as well.

Just like that, it became a trending topic again.

Every once in a while, someone in the entertainment industry would end up getting bashed.

However, this was the first time that the netizens had spammed so many one-star ratings.

It was enough to show the extent of the netizens’ disgust for Lu Shiyuan.

Some smart people in the industry vaguely guessed that someone was going to mess with Lu Shiyuan.

Furthermore, that mastermind’s background was pretty strong.

The ones who were usually in a hurry to curry favor with Lu Shiyuan also stopped and quietly watched from the side.

If Lu Shiyuan was really defeated this time…

If that were the case, then the entertainment industry in Xu City would also change.

At that time, they could take advantage of the chaos to share the cake or curry favor with the new boss of the industry.

All of a sudden, Lu Shiyuan’s situation became difficult.

The moment Lu Shiyuan arrived at the company, he threw a tantrum.

He then proceeded to berate and scold Zhou Yan as well as the entire PR department.

The PR department immediately carried out emergency PR tactics which were to release an official statement and issue a lawyer’s letter.

However, the netizens were so angry at Lu Shiyuan for suppressing the trending topic yesterday that they left a million one-star ratings. How could they calm down so easily?

The netizens continued to hurl insults at Lu Shiyuan under the topic #Lu Corporation’s statement.

[#Lu Corporation’s statement – F*ck! Does that b*stard think he can do whatever he wants just because he’s rich?]

[#Lu Corporation’s statement – Today, we’re brave warriors who are fighting for justice!]

[#Lu Corporation’s statement – A day has passed, yet Lu Shiyuan still doesn’t dare to show his face]

[#Lu Corporation’s statement – He can suppress the trending topic, release a statement, and issue a lawyer’s letter. He’ll do anything except give a straightforward reply. What a coward.]

The matter got worse by the second.

Zhou Yan started to become anxious. He persuaded, “President Lu, why don’t we host a press conference?”

“A press conference?” Lu Shiyuan turned his head to look at Zhou Yan, his dark eyes not showing any emotions.

Zhou Yan nodded his head. “This matter blew up so much. If we don’t give the public an explanation, I’m afraid this matter can’t be resolved at all.”

“So, you think you can make decisions for me now?” Lu Shiyuan slowly approached Zhou Yan.

His voice was very soft, and it carried a strange coldness.

By the time Zhou Yan detected Lu Shiyuan’s emotional change, it was already too late.

Lu Shiyuan grabbed his collar and threw him onto the boss’ chair. “Then, I might as well let you become the president!”

Bang! Bang!

Zhou Yan was thrown onto the chair brutally. He ended up getting slammed into the armrest so hard that his ribs hurt.

He let out a muffled groan before sliding down to the floor, a frown already present on his pallid face.

Lu Shiyuan was still raging at Zhou Yan.

“You want me to host a press conference and admit defeat? That’s impossible! Once I find the one who leaked the footage, I’ll definitely tear him into a thousand pieces!”

Back when he took over the Lu Corporation, many people claimed that he was a

business genius.

However, now Lu Shiyuan got defeated by an unknown person. No matter what, he couldn’t take this lying down.

He didn’t care how the public opinion on the internet fermented.

No one could make him yield!

There was no such word in his dictionary. “I won’t ever lose!”

Zhou Yan had already recovered a little by now.

However, his waist hurt so badly that he couldn’t get up. “I’m sorry, President Lu. I overstepped my boundaries.”

“Get out!” Lu Shiyuan glanced at him coldly.

Zhou Yan’s ability to do things was getting worse and worse recently.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Zhou Yan had worked for Lu Shiyuan for years, the latter would’ve told him to pack his things and scram a long time ago.

When Lin Shanchu and Yun Wu went to the cafeteria to eat, they saw Nan Mu.

Nan Mu was chatting with a few members.

When he saw Lin Shanchu, he walked toward her.

“Has the recording schedule been rearranged at an earlier time?” she asked. Nan Mu might not be the real boss, but he was usually quite busy, so he wouldn’t come to the festival group for no reason.

“No.” Nan Mu shook his head.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

Yun Wu happened to be lining up for food, so Nan Mu took the opportunity to pull Lin Shanchu aside with an expression that yearned for gossip. “Lu Shiyuan suppressed the trending topic again yesterday.”

He still dared to suppress the trending topic at this time. It was indeed something that a brainless male protagonist would do.

“Then, the netizens got angry and went to various platforms overnight to give one-star ratings to the dramas and movies produced by the Lu Corporation.

Can you guess how many bad reviews the netizens gave? ‘

Nan Mu’s expression clearly indicated “hurry up and ask me”.

Lin Shanchu did not let him have his way. Instead, she replied, “A hundred million.”

Nan Mu choked on his words.

“Shanshan, how many eggs do you want to eat?” Yun Wu’s voice drifted into Lin Shanchu’s ears.

“Two,” she replied before going to grab her breakfast.

Nan Mu was afraid that he would miss the opportunity to share his happiness, so he quickly said to Lin Shanchu, “It’s a total of a million one-star ratings.”

Lin Shanchu replied, “Lu Shiyuan is worth it.” “I think so too.” Nan Mu nodded frantically.

As expected, Lin Shanchu understood him.

He didn’t come over to share his happiness with Lin Shanchu early in the morning for nothing.

Lin Shanchu asked Nan Mu, “Did you come all the way here early in the morning just to tell me this?”

“Yes,” Nan Mu replied.

He was serious about bearing grudges.

He was also serious about sharing the latest gossip.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

In the afternoon.

The share market opened.

The Lu Corporation’s share price plummeted.

Those who had the Lu Corporation’s shares cursed at Lu Shiyuan on the forum.

In the training camp, Lin Shanchu was putting makeup on Yun Wu’s face.

The latter was going to record a program later.

Lin Shanchu straightened up and took two steps back. She carefully looked at

Yun Wu before saying, “It’s done.”

“When are you leaving?” Yun Wu vaguely knew a little about the matters on the internet. Besides, Lin Shanchu had changed into casual clothes, so Yun Wu guessed that the former might not stay to record the show.

Lin Shanchu looked at the clock on the wall.

“I’m leaving soon.”

It was time for the market to open.

The Lu Corporation’s share price continued dropping.

However, the shareholders in the company would definitely not be able to sit still.

Lin Shanchu put on some makeup before going to Nan Mu’s office.

She had to retrieve her phone and then go buy a set of decent clothes.

From a distance, Lin Shanchu saw Li MO standing at the door of the office.

“Ms. Lin..”
