Was this not akin to handing them the knife themselves?
There was no denying it now.
Soon, numerous headlines soared into the trending topics.
#Tang Haiqiu openly states “Crossing the Demon Realm” doesn’t need to air on Great Xia Channel#
#Only Si Fuqing can act in “Crossing the Demon Realm”#
#Si Fuqing, Tong Luoyun#
This time, there was no need for marketing accounts to distort the truth; Tang Haiqiu had clearly stated it himself.
The netizens were astounded.
[Great Xia TV is unworthy?? Too arrogant, can’t get his own show aired on Great Xia TV and throws a tantrum.]
[I’m curious to see which channel will air “Crossing the Demon Realm” that has Tang Haiqiu so boastful.]
[I used to have a good impression of Tang Haiqiu because of “Sword Immortal”, but now it’s almost gone.]
[Now that he’s offended Great Xia TV, it’ll be hard for Tang Haiqiu’s shows to get aired there in the future.]
Indeed, the supervisor in charge of reviewing TV dramas had seen Tang Haiqiu’s interview. With some instigation from interested parties, his fury erupted.
“What’s with the passive-aggressive comments from the ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ team?” the supervisor slammed his hand on the table. “What, do they really expect me to choose them? I’m supposed to ignore Tong Luoyun, a triple-Golden Award winner, for a newcomer? Do they think they’re that impressive?”
Anyone with sense knew whom to choose.
Moreover, they had collaborated with Tong Luoyun several times and naturally favored her.
He didn’t care about the variety show schedules. How impressive Si Fuqing was on variety shows, how was that related with TV dramas?”
“Tong Luoyun’s ratings are very reliable.” The assistant supervisor smiled. “Our choice was right from the start, and the online sentiment leans toward us, but their outright provocation is indeed too much.”
“Of course, I know that. I can’t swallow this insult,” the supervisor tapped on the table, instructing his secretary to post a tweet from his personal account.
It was blunt and confrontational.
[I shouldn’t choose Tong Luoyun, the triple-Golden Award winner, but I should choose you? Do you think you have a bigger face than Tong Luoyun?]
This tweet pushed the “Crossing the Demon Realm” team to the peak of public scrutiny.
[Yeah, why would Great Xia TVchoose Si Fuqing over a triple-Golden Award winner? Are they insane? Si Fuqing, stop manipulating your fans; we see right through your tactics.]
[That’s right, put down that actress who’s too arrogant, thinking she’s the best in the world.]
[Hahaha, seems like Si Fuqing’s team will quiet down now, they were supposed to announce the premiere date today, waiting eagerly.]
Si Fuqing’s studio remained unresponsive.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Si Fuqing finally logged onto Weibo, sharing a promo from Starlight TV.
[@StarlightTVOfficialWeiboV: With a single thought, one becomes an immortal; with another, a demon. Both paths of gods and demons, submit to my will..
January 20th at 8 PM @SiFuqing stars in “Crossing the Demon Realm,” don’t miss it!]
[Don’t miss it!]
[Looking forward to January 20th!]
Mousses quickly gathered, but this time, the crowd of onlookers was too large, and they couldn’t suppress the comments from bystanders and rival fans.
[Oh, it’s just Starlight TV? I thought it was some prestigious network, and here Tang Haiqiu dares to say that airing on Great Xia TV would be regrettable?]
[Boasting and then failing, huh? Hahaha, that’s hilarious.]
[Let’s see how Si Fuqing brags this time.]
Two seconds later, Si Fuqing shared another promotional tweet.
It had the same slogan and even the same image.
Netizens were puzzled, wondering if Si Fuqing had accidentally reposted the same promo, until they noticed the name of the tweet’s account.
IFTV.
That was an abbreviation.
The full name, International Film TV.
