Chapter 392 Chances to Make a Comeback

The new episode of ‘This Is Too Funny’ was screened that same night.

The viewership ratings were higher than any previous episode.

How had Fang Mo’er managed to compete against the program team on this show and even return with a trophy? This doubt had been lingering in the hearts of the audience for some time.

It was a question as to how popular Fang Mo’er was on the Internet.

Hence, the number of viewers continued to increase during the show’s premiere.

The program team was grinning from ear to ear when they saw this effect.

After the premiere of the main film, they had immediately promoted the relevant footage of Fang Mo’er.

This was a very topical episode. The host, Li Li, had only hosted the first half of the show, and she had shown herself to be full of ugliness.

In the second half, the new host who had replaced her had a kind look on his face, which was in stark contrast to Li Li’s previous performance.

It was no surprise that after this episode was broadcast, Li Li’s image had suffered even more damage.

It was said that Li Li had already been banned by the Star Dream Video app and had gone to a rival video app. At the same time, due to her controversial reputation, she had been invited to accept several vicious shows.

Li Li, who had ruined her future just because of a guest, had nightmares of being mercilessly pushed into the pool by Fang Mo’er every night. Whenever she woke up after, the hatred in her heart would have increased.

Some people had fallen, while others had risen.

Because of Fang Mo’er and Mu Bei’s outstanding performance on the show, the number of fans for the two of them kept increasing

There were even some who were fans of pair being a romantic couple. On the show, Fang Mo’er and Mu Bei had worked well together and taken care of each other.

They often posted promotional photos of the movie, which led to references to the saying about the red and blue couple[1] combination.

It meant that the two of them were a perfect match.

Some people remarked that it had been a long time since Fang Mo’er and Shi Mo had appeared together.

Some people speculated that Shi Mo had already found a new lover. In short, many people hoped that Fang Mo’er could make an official announcement with Mu Bei confirming their relationship.

“The red and blue couple combination?” Mu Bei looked at the Internet and saw that the fans of the red and blue couple combination were posting clips everywhere of him and Fang Mo’er. They were trying to prove their suspicions of being in love with each other. He frowned.

“Brother Mu, this is a great opportunity for you to become popular.” His assistant was smiling by his side. He was very happy that Mu Bei’s popularity was so high now. There were actually so many fans active on all the major forums.

The assistant was naturally happy for Mu Bei.

However, Mu Bei was puzzled and said, “The production team doesn’t have any publicity plans in this area.”

There were so many fans of the couple that it seemed somewhat abnormal. Instead, it seemed as if someone was deliberately spreading rumors.

Fang Mo’er’s public relations team would not do such a thing because Mu Bei knew that Fang Mo’er had a powerful boyfriend.

It was said that Shi Mo was the one who had given the order to the television station to replace Li Li as the host. Although many people did not know Shi Mo’s real identity, they knew that this person could not be provoked.

Fang Mo’er’s manager would not have taken this publicity angle at this time either.

After carefully looking at the movements of the fans of the couple online, Mu Bei discovered that a wave of fans of the couple had naturally been generated through the increased publicity from the variety show.

On the other hand, there was a group of Internet trolls who were fueling the flames as well.

Mu Bei’s company would not help with any publicity either.

So, who could have been behind this?

There was even a rumor that Shi Mo had already fallen in love with someone else!

“Brother Mu, no matter who the person behind the publicity is, it won’t do us any harm.” The assistant had not expected Mu Bei to be so unhappy. Instead, he was concerned about who the person behind the publicity was.

At that moment, Mu Bei’s phone rang.

It was an agent who had not contacted him for a long time.

Although the agent had taken good care of Mu Bei in the past, he had not contacted Mu Bei ever since Mu Bei had lost any hope of rising to prominence.

Now that he had seen that Mu Bei was showing signs of becoming popular again, he had immediately called Mu Bei and said, “Lil Mu, your chance has come. If you can become famous with this movie and let the company see your value, you might not have to be shelved anymore.”

The agent sighed and said, “The company is still in the wait-and-see stage. They know that between you and Xue Yao, only one of you can stay. You must do your best and seize this wave of popularity to create hype. I don’t think you want to be completely abandoned by the company, right?”

As long as Mu Bei was more famous than Xue Yao, the company’s higher-ups would still give him some consideration. They would then not help Xue Yao anymore.

By then, Mu Bei would be able to renew his contract with the company and receive the company’s best resources.

[1] Red and blue couple trope

The name comes from traditional Japanese folklore where Oni (think troll/ogre) usually came in two flavors, a Red and a Blue. Over time, it’s gotten popular to ascribe different qualities and personalities to the two colors. (Think the high-strung Type A personality and the easy-going Type B personality.)
