Chapter 62: 062 Boycott

Oh my god!

Gu Cheng slapped his thigh so hard that he frowned in pain. Why was he stupid in the past? Why did he not put in a few advertising slots to make money?

After all, there was not a single movie in this universe that did not have commercials in them!

Damn, he had lost a good opportunity to make money!

The movie, “The Way of the Stars”, was scheduled to be released on the 25th of December. This movie was not only released in the Fu family’s cinema, but also in Imperial Star Cinema.

Although Imperial Star Cinema was also a national chain, it was incomparable to the cinema owned by the Fu family.

Imperial Star Cinema only broadcasted “The Way of the Stars”, while seventy percent of the schedule at Fu family’s cinema was showing “The

Way of the Stars.”

The audience did not have a good impression of the movie originally. The female lead, Shen Yan, and the other roles were all not well known, and the only person who was more famous was the director, Gu Cheng.

On the first day, “The Way of the Stars” only grossed a little over a million dollars.

Shen Yan heard about the box office results from Xiao Dong. She smiled and did not say anything.

Xiao Dong held her phone nervously and comforted, “Miss Shen, the quality of the movie is definitely good! Don’t worry about it.”

Shen Yan was casually browsing the comments. There were quite a few people on the internet mocking her.

“Trash movie! Absolutely trash! A million dollars for their box office? How can they only get that amount when the movie was released during a weekend on the first day? One look, and you can tell that it’s a bad movie. I don’t even need to go and see the movie!”

“Shen Yan, get lost! We definitely won’t watch ‘The Way of the Stars’!”

“Shen Yan, aren’t you trying to earn money? Let us tell you, we definitely won’t watch it!”

“Right! We won’t go and see Shen Yan’s movie. The whole internet should boycott Shen Yan’s movie, this b*tch!”

“Agreed, let’s boycott Shen Yan together and call on everyone not to watch her movie!”

After Shen Yan looked at the barrage of comments, she turned off her phone and tossed it aside. Then, she went on to continue filming.

Lin Lan, who had been kicked out of the cast of “Return of the Heroes”, saw the calls to boycott Shen Yan on the Internet. She smiled, and a cold light glinted in her eyes.

If it was not for Shen Yan, how could she have been kicked out of the production? Her sponsor was still angry at her because of this matter!

Fortunately, she was smart enough to be able to coax her financial backer. Her sponsor then promised her that he would help her get a role inside “God of War”.

Lin Lan’s eyes twinkled as if she thought of something, and she immediately got people to buy some articles to slander Shen Yan.

Shen Yan appeared on the trending searches for more than twenty days in a month. Her popularity was definitely comparable to that of a first-rate actress, except that she was being criticized while the first-rate actresses received compliments.

The next day, “The Way of the Stars” only grossed 1.5 million dollars for their box office. This amount was implying that the movie was a bad one.

However, a movie review post written by a verified influencer, Big Eggplant, suddenly went viral In the middle of the night.

Big Cheese had been a movie reviewer for fifty years. He would go and watch the movie regardless of whether it was good or bad. Then, he would write a review so that everyone could avoid watching the bad ones.

Perhaps it was because he had seen too many movies. Thus, he had always been very stingy with his scores. A film that seemed flawless to an average person would only get 8.5 points out of 10 from Big Eggplant.

Because of this, his nine-point score for “The Way of the Stars” instantly attracted the attention of many fans.

For Big Eggplant to give a nine out of ten, could it be that “The Way of the Stars” had bribed him?

As a result, the comments under Big Eggplant’s review for “The Way of the Stars” were all negative. They were ridiculing how he had received money to post this.

Big Eggplant, who was also a barbarian, directly made another post.

“If I did collect any money, my whole family will die!”

When the netizens saw Big Eggplant’s update post, they were all stunned. Their curiosity aroused for the movie “The Way of the Stars”. Hence, they went to look for the reviews of the other film critics and bloggers, and they gave it a perfect score.

They were confused as to how those bloggers could have given such a high evaluation for “The Way of the Stars”.

So, the netizens became curious and decided to go see the movie in the cinema. They would definitely refute those bloggers harshly if it was indeed a bad movie!
