When The Top Hacker Becomes A Female Supporting Character, She Amazes The World

190 Easily Defeated

The meaning between the lines was obvious from Xie Yi’s words. Ji Jun was too old-fashioned. He was not as young and energetic as Xiang Lei, who was more attractive to young people.

Wang Ping was too embarrassed to expose Xie Yi. Xiang Lei was more than a month older than Ji Jun. He spread his hands and said, “Whether Teacher Ji is suitable or not, since the show hasn’t been recorded, we don’t know about it yet. But the producer is quite satisfied with him.”

Xiang Lei did not seem to hear Wang Ping’s words and kept urging him to think of a solution.

Xie Yi could only say, “That’s because the producer has never interacted with our Xiang Lei. Otherwise, he would have another choice.” As he spoke, he changed the topic. “Coincidentally, our Xiang Lei has found a private restaurant that is rather good. We can let him be the host and invite the producer and you guys to have a meal together. We all work in the industry together and it’s good that we find a chance to get to know one another.”

When Wang Ping saw that he was unwilling to give up, he became a little impatient. After all, he still had a lot of work to do. He really didn’t want to waste any more time with them, so he said directly, “Brother Xie, you don’t have to organize these things. Our production team has decided that Teacher Ji will be the male lead. We won’t change to anyone else.”

Seeing how stubborn he was, Xie Yi was also a little angry. “You don’t have to be so full of yourself. This pancake hasn’t been served yet. Who knows whose plate it will fall into?”

Not to mention those who had yet to sign the contract and go back on their word, it was not unheard of for the production team to change roles halfway through filming after signing the contract. If the production team really could not reason with them, they could still look for advertisers. If that did not work, they could incite the fans and get them to pressure the production team.

Wang Ping really couldn’t stand Xie Yi’s stubbornness. “Brother Xie, it’s not your first day in the industry. You should know that in the industry, benefits are the most important. So if Teacher Xiang wants to be the main celebrity of this show, there’s a way. You just have to let him surpass Teacher Ji.”

Xie Yi was a little confused. How was he supposed to do that? Was he supposed to buy the manuscript to flatter Xiang Lei and belittle Ji Jun?

Wang Ping said lightly, “You’ve probably heard that our show has suddenly been upgraded to an S+ grade show. The sponsorship fees have also suddenly soared by a lot. All of this is thanks to Teacher Ji. At first, these advertisers were not prepared to invest in our show, but when they heard that Teacher Ji would participate, they all said that they wanted to invest more. Moreover, in order to fight for the sponsorship title, several companies almost fought.”

It was true that Ji Jun was very famous, and it was also true that it was very easy when they used his name to attract investors. However, the reason why advertisers were fighting to sponsor him was mostly because Ji Jun was known as a good investor in the industry.

Putting aside the fact that all the movies he invested in earned money, even the variety show he participated in last time—although it was canceled because of a criminal case—was on the trending searches for many days because of the big incident.

Everyone was very curious about the conflict between Fang Qing and Yu Han as it escalated to the point where Fang Qing wanted to kill Yu Han in public. Hence, it led to the great increase in the number of views of the production team’s live-stream segment and the first episode. Videos that focused on all kinds of details and analysis were also released in full swing. Even the advertisers that had appeared briefly in the show joined in, and their market value increased greatly.

Hence, Ji Jun was destined to bring wealth and popularity with him. There would definitely be no loss if they invested in him. This was a rare opportunity. If they did not fight to invest, what were they waiting for?

Xie Yi and Xiang Lei hadn’t thought of this. When they heard this, they thought that Ji Jun’s commercial value as an artist was already so high. The two of them glared at each other, not knowing what to say.

At this point, even if they went to invite advertisers or incite fans, it would not be of much use. After all, this was a sponsorship fee worth hundreds of millions. Not to mention the production team, even the rich Kangaroo Platform would not give up easily, let alone offend Ji Jun for them.

However, Wang Ping still wanted to continue hurting their hearts. “So, if Teacher Xiang can suppress Teacher Ji, I think the producer will be very happy to replace him.”

Xie Yi thought to himself: If Xiang Lei had such ability, would I still need to waste so much effort to listen to a small casting director like you spouting nonsense? How many people are rushing to beg Xiang Lei to appear on the show? As his manager, I can do whatever I want in the entertainment industry.
