Episode 4

Chu Yingcheng's kick on the subway was purely accidental, and he didn't have the consciousness to report it--or he didn't even know to report it.

And because of Chu Yingcheng's previous tepidness, no one monitors his network revelations at all.

As a result, the reporter ran into him head-on, and no one on the scene was prepared. Brother Li was in the background, hurriedly grabbing the assistant to investigate the cause and effect of the incident.

But the question should be answered as soon as possible.

At the moment Chu Yingcheng gave a "Huh?", the flashlight flashed crazily in front of his eyes, making his eyes dizzy. Netizens who watched the live broadcast also found his news and discussed it in the comment area.

[Found it! Someone said on the Internet that they saw Chu Yingcheng take the initiative to kick the jerk two meters away! There is also a group of photos of him photoed in front of the police booth, which seems to be taken by quite a few people.]

[Two meters is an exaggeration... and he is an idol, so he went to take the subway without any cover, really?]

[So it's still hype? To set the stage for announcing him a C position today?]

[But the speed of this hype is too slow, right? There is not even a fever. This is what the public relations are doing?]

[Fan9's popularity is okay. It shouldn't be a marketing plan of this scale...]

[Ahhhhhh, my brother Jun hates this kind of hype! I don't believe this is Fan9's hype!]

[To tell the truth, this should be Chu Yingcheng's own idea, right? I don't believe that such a crude method is the company's decision!]

[That is! The one who broke the news is definitely on the same side as Chu Yingcheng! Otherwise, who would recognize him?]

[He didn’t even wear hats, masks, or glasses. Isn’t this just expecting others to recognize him?]

[Oh, vomit! Why did the company choose such a new C position!]

Criticism in the comment area became more acute, but the press conference was quiet and weird. Everyone was waiting for Chu Yingcheng to answer, but after Chu Yingcheng's "Huh?", there was no more text.

Well, he still doesn't quite understand what "hype" means. If he can, he now wants to take out his phone and ask the artificial intelligence.

However, it doesn't work. After all, when he asked "what is a C position" before, Brother Li looked like he was going to die; now if he checks the meaning of "hype" on the spot, Brother Li may be furious on the spot.

Chu Yingcheng was still at a loss. The reporter asked, "You don't speak now, so does it mean that you admit that this is hype?"

As soon as the reporter said this, Yue Jun's brow furrowed slightly, and Su Yumin's eyes drooped for a second, and then he stood up. Just as Su Yumin's microphone was raised to his lips and he was about to speak, Chu Yingcheng suddenly said: "Why can't I take the subway?"

When the reporter heard his words, he immediately rushed: "Didn't you just say that you usually take the company car? Then why did you suddenly take the subway last night?"

Chu Yingcheng: "The subway banned me from entering the door last night? No, right? I went in."

Reporter: "Why do you still take the subway if you have a company car?"

Chu Yingcheng: "If you buy a car, you swear not to take the subway in this life?"

Reporter:"……"

Okay, he found it, Chu Yingcheng seemed to be answering questions, but in fact, he was sophistry!

Brother Li was so angry with Chu Yingcheng in the background that he wanted to rush up to answer the question. On the stage, Su Yumin and Yue Jun weren't very anxious, watching Chu Yingcheng and reporters arguing with each other like children calmly.

So the reporter said directly: "Okay, you went to take the subway, but you don't even have a disguise. Is it so that people can take pictures and recognize you?"

Chu Yingcheng's rhetorical question came again: "Why should I pretend? No one else is disguising on the subway."

Reporter: "Then you admit that you were deliberately to do so to be recognized on the subway?"

Chu Yingcheng: "No one recognizes me."

Reporter: "There are so many photos on Weibo, why didn't you recognize but took a photo with you?"

Chu Yingcheng: "Oh, that's because I caught the gangster. They didn't recognize me before."

Reporter:"……"

Chu Yingcheng said again: "The girl is really wronged. You said this as if I had arranged it. Why should the girl be a victim of this grievance? And as you said that, it seems that you are helping the bad guy to get rid of his crime. You are talking to everyone, so don't lead this incorrect trend. It is better to let the uncle police deal with the bad guys."

After a random argument, the reporter was suddenly speechless.

In the comment area, Chu Yingcheng's trick was also caused a little confusion: [Why, can the press conference still question reporters in the opposite direction?]

[Follow the way of the reporter, leaving the reporter with nowhere to go!]

[But I think what he said is right. If the whole thing is true, it will have a bad effect on the victim...]

[Why did he take the subway so brazenly? He is an entertainer, what should he do if it causes congestion? Should subway security be affected?]

[To be honest, I believe he is telling the truth, because he is really unpopular, and it is difficult for passers-by to recognize him.]

[Being unpopular is the best protective color hahaha...]

The agent Li Ge also believed that what Chu Yingcheng was telling was the truth.

No one will not take photos of the most important part when preparing for the hype, and will not take the marketing seriously after finishing the work! Brother Li looked at the topic of #Chu Yingcheng caught a jerk on the subway#, thinking that it was such a good hot topic, and it has not been on the topic list yet. He was really convinced.

He surrendered, because of the public relations department, who did not monitor at all, and Chu Yingcheng, who did not report at all.

——Be sure to let the team pay attention to it in person in the future!

-Let go of such a good opportunity for nothing!

——Being scolded as hype after marketing is better than just wasting it!

In short, this press conference ended when the focus shifted from "Why is Chu Yingcheng a C position" to "Is Chu Yingcheng catching the hooligans hype?" Reporters and audiences felt that not only did the original problems have not been solved, they also gave rise to a big new question. The only certainty is that Fan9's press conference and Chu Yingcheng are really on hot topics.

"Cheng, you really have to remember to report to me next time! You don't say anything about it, what are your basic qualities as an artist?"

On the way home at night, it was Brother Li who was still driving, and Yue Jun and Chu Yingcheng were still sitting in the back row. Today, when Brother Li thought that Chu Yingcheng wasted hot spots, he got angry, so he babbled in the car: "Now the company helps you make up for the attention, so you might stay on the topic list for a day and a half. It turns out that the kick on the subway takes effect. You can be a hero in the future, but after you are done..."

"Don't look at it." Yue Jun's cold voice suddenly sounded, but the words were not addressed to the chattering agent. He stretched out his hand to cover the screen of Chu Yingcheng's mobile phone, and said coldly, "I know they are scolding you. Are you looking for abuse?"

Chu Yingcheng turned to look at him and blinked slowly: "...It's okay."

In fact, Chu Yingcheng couldn't understand the negative comments of those netizens. The Chinese alone is tiring enough. Every word can be understood, but it is very daunting to put them together; there is also a mess of alien language in the middle, and Chu Yingcheng couldn't recognize any of them.

He thought to himself: Will the "girl" on the phone know this? Go home and give it a try?

Yue Jun thought that he was stunned by the unfriendly comments on the Internet so that he reacted so numbly, and said: "You have to assume the responsibilities of the leader and the C position. This is normal attention. Always caring that these public opinions are just a waste of time. ."

When he spoke, his tone was cold, and at first, it sounded too cynic, and Brother Li even thought he was going to quarrel. But Chu Yingcheng didn't consciously compare him with his brother, and felt that this teammate should be "knife mouth tofu heart".

"Thank you, I won't care if they say something bad." Chu Yingcheng smiled at him, "I'm studying."

Yue Jun: "Studying?"

Chu Yingcheng: "Uh... Internet language?"

Yue Jun: "What's so good about this nonsense?"

"For example, they all call you brother Jun.' There are also people who call you cubs, claiming to be your mother..."

"...Shut up, you."

Yue Jun interrupted coldly, and Chu Yingcheng blinked and stopped talking. The agent was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Cheng, it's not good to learn the messy words on the Internet to make fun of Yue Jun, so stop talking."

"Oh..." Chu Yingcheng's tone sounded pretty obedient, but Yue Jun, who was sitting next to him, swept his eyes, feeling that Chu Yingcheng was not very frightened.

It's strange to say that Yue Jun didn't pay much attention to this teammate before. Except for the name, he basically didn't remember much information about him. But looking at him now, Yue Jun always has a feeling of "he seems to be different from my memory".

-Was he such a person before?

Yue Jun watched him flip through the pages of negative reviews calmly, as usual, was silent for a few seconds, and then asked: "Why are you so daring to take the subway?"

Even if Chu Yingcheng didn't know the situation clearly at this moment, he knew that he couldn't answer Yue Jun like the way he spoke to the reporter.

Besides, as long as he turned his head and looked at Yue Jun's face, he would be obedient without knowing it, and it's unlikely to say nonsense. His mind quickly turned several times, and Chu Yingcheng finally settled on an answer: "Um... I didn't remember to disguise at that time."

"Didn't remember?"

"Uh, I thought they wouldn't recognize me."

Yue Jun raised his eyebrows.

He didn't care much about the private work of his teammates before, but judging from the number of people in collective business each time, there is no shortage of Chu Yingcheng. Why is he listening now, as if this person is invisible in the events and the MVs?

However, even Yue Jun, who is a teammate of him, didn't have much impression, so it turned out that he was quite marginal...

Yue Jun was silent on this side, but the agent in front thought it was Chu Yingcheng’s complaint, and said, "Hey, don't talk about it. You are now the leader and the C position, and you will definitely have more work in the future. The company will also arrange travel for you. That is, you still have to learn more to deal with the media. Today is our press conference and live broadcast. In the future, if you encounter vicious cuts in programs... No, you don’t need bad cuts. You can mess up with your mouth..."

Brother Li has been talking these words many times tonight. Chu Yingcheng's just ignored what he said. It seemed that he was a beloved baby who was listening carefully, but in fact, his eyes were still silently turning down to the phone. Yue Jun glanced at his eyes and found that he had opened a mobile phone assistant, slowly handwriting: [What is a male mother?]

Yue Jun: "..."

If he doesn't find something to do, will he be the first-line fansite masternim the next day?

"The book signing meeting the day after tomorrow is at ten o'clock in the morning?" Yue Jun took his gaze off the screen of Chu Yingcheng's phone, in case he couldn't help but turn down his phone. "If you don't have any appointments, will you come?"

"...Huh?" Chu Yingcheng was taken aback, looked at him blankly, and listened to Brother Li before he could speak, "Yes!"

Yue Jun's book signing meeting was never willing to let other teammates go, and now he is suddenly willing to "open the door", it must be a good opportunity!

Brother Li even asked: "He sits with you? It's not good to just let him sit there, or let him say something to support you?"

Since Yue Jun has made a decision, it doesn't matter: "Yes."

The two of them made a harmonious decision. Only then did Yue Jun turn his head to notice Chu Yingcheng's expression. It seemed that he was still there, and he didn't react.

Yue Jun squinted his eyes: "You don't want to?"

"Ah, what..." Chu Yingcheng looked at the familiar face, showing familiar displeasure and sternness, and couldn't help but sit down like a good baby, "I, I haven't bought your new work yet. I will go tomorrow. I will buy it and try hard to read it!"

Yue Jun: "...Huh?" Why is this reaction?

Chu Yingcheng: Ah, ah, the feeling of being spot-checked by his brother!
