Chapter 291: Chapter 260: Lottery, Rare Skill—Rock Style

Yi Junxi’s manager also felt somewhat helpless, "I know this is unfair to you, Junxi, but continuing this way is pointless."

After the program ended, they did think about letting fans cyberbully the Hua Country star a bit.

Managing fans?

Don’t joke, as if they really are some moral paragons.

If they really did as that person said, allowing themselves to be trampled without a word,

wouldn’t they become pushovers, allowing everyone to walk all over them?

So, they had to blow up the situation, pressuring the Hua Country star and the production team to come out and apologize.

That’s what they had thought.

But...

"We can’t keep this up, it’s not affecting that person at all. After the program ended, his social account in Hua Country gained more than six hundred thousand followers."

And that wasn’t all, his manager continued, "Aside from social accounts, the Hua Country star’s latest album pre-order campaign also saw an increase of over a million reservations."

Both account followers and new album preorders increased.

How was this putting pressure on him? Wasn’t this just boosting his popularity?

Even beyond giving him a popularity boost,

"There’s also some negative chatter about you on Instagram, Junxi. Some are blaming you for not managing your fans well, saying it’s embarrassing."

They could afford to ignore the market in Hua Country a bit.

But they couldn’t afford to ignore the domestic and international markets.

In short, this would only be harmful, not beneficial.

Huh?

Yi Junxi was completely stunned, "He does that kind of thing on a live broadcast, and not only does he not suffer, but he gains more support?"

No, his fans may indeed be a bit dirty with their words, but surely the problem should be bigger on that person’s end.

In the program, it seemed that he was more innocent than the Hua Country star.

His manager also found it hard to understand, merely hesitantly saying, "That person in Hua Country seems to have a special reputation, different from conventional idol stars."

To tell the truth, although they had looked into the detailed information about this Hua Country star after the program ended,

due to cultural barriers, they still somewhat failed to fully understand.

"For now, let’s call on the fans to calm down, and as for specifics, we’ll see how to proceed later."

...

Yi Junxi’s manager was baffled.

Wu Mu wasn’t surprised at all.

As soon as he saw the increase of over a million new album preorders, he knew the Profit Card system had taken action again.

Normally, these events wouldn’t get so much support or cause such a stir.

But with the Profit Card covertly exerting influence, shifting the public sentiment in his favor, it wasn’t surprising at all.

After all, with such a large profit realization, it wasn’t strange to complete it with high popularity.

He wasn’t surprised at all, but Shi Wu didn’t understand the knack of it and was a bit surprised, "I didn’t expect that although you usually have so many anti-fans, boss, at the crucial moment, there are actually so many people speaking up for you."

Especially since it wasn’t just fans speaking up, but also bystanders who were there for the drama; that was even weirder.

The more he interacted, the less Shi Wu understood how there could be such an odd star like Mu.

He looked full of flaws, a person who could be obliterated by bad press at any moment, yet he just kept getting more and more popular.

"Of course, it’s because the boss is kind-hearted and stands up straight!"

Shu Mei exclaimed loudly.

"What’s wrong with telling Yi Junxi to manage his fans? Is it wrong to say that? An idol star that can’t even manage their own fans, what’s that about!"

But it’s not as simple as that.

Online public opinion is unpredictable. It wouldn’t be strange for this to turn into Mu forgetting his roots as an idol and attacking his fans, or Mu being disgusting and going on a program with no regard for others.

Also, I remember those fans of Mu from before, while they had a better reputation, they’ve been called hardcore fans too, haven’t they?

Shi Wu muttered to himself.

However, he wasn’t foolish enough to say this out loud, and instead diverted the topic, "Boss, our studio’s online account received some private messages from Korean fans. They messaged us to start an account on Instagram, and asked when our new album would go live on the iTunes platform."

This was a follow-up to the heat on Instagram.

The conflict between him, Yi Junxi, and Li Zhengxun had attracted some Korean users’ attention.

Wu Mu didn’t take this much to heart, but Shi Wu and Shu Mei seemed to think it was important.

Shu Mei’s eyes sparkled, "Boss, I think we can start aiming for international superstardom!"

Before, her boldest plan was just to help her brother return to the top-tier and become a domestic National Star.

But after this event, she suddenly realized that her brother could unexpectedly attract fans overseas.

Just a small buzz like with Yi Junxi could draw so many people’s proactive interest, so what if they included overseas endeavors in their work schedule? Could he have the chance to become an international superstar like Yi Junxi?
