Fu Zicong had his reasons for saying that.
Initially, he'd wanted Xiangnan TV Station to be the platform for the show.
Originally, Fu Zicong had hoped that Xiangnan TV Station would reject Aifei Entertainment and their Weiwei's Infinite Smile, and instead air Xinchen Entertainment's A Sweet Love Like Honey.
However, when Li Yi went to Xiangnan TV Station to negotiate this matter, Director Liu of Xiangnan TV Station didn't even hesitate before rejecting Xinchen Entertainment's proposal.
He insisted on not breaking the contract with Aifei Entertainment, and scheduled Weiwei's Infinite Smile to air during the prime time slot on weekends.
Director Liu's actions infuriated Fu Zicong.
He felt that Director Liu was simply not giving him, the nation's number one young master, any face.
It was as if he was stepping on Fu Zicong's face.
Therefore, Fu Zicong held a grudge against the uncooperative Director Liu.
This time, he not only wanted to compete with Aifei Entertainment.
He wanted to make Xu Yifei and Fu Shan pay.
He also wanted to make that old man Liu Jianguo pay!
He wanted Liu Jianguo and everyone at Xiangnan TV Station to know that they couldn't just brush off Fu Zicong.
They had to pay the price!
"Heh heh, President Fu, that's a must. We'll just wait for that old geezer, Director Liu, to come crawling to us."
As Fu Zicong's assistant and confidant, Li Yi naturally understood Fu Zicong's intentions.
Hearing this, he just chuckled complacently on the other end of the phone.
In Li Yi's opinion, Aifei Entertainment's Weiwei's Infinite Smile was simply no match for Xinchen Entertainment's annual blockbuster, A Sweet Love Like Honey.
To say nothing of other factors, just the fact that their drama had top-tier stars and an all-star cast was enough to guarantee Weiwei's Infinite Smile would lose, okay?
Heh, he was just waiting to watch the show.
Waiting for Aifei Entertainment and Xiangnan TV Station to cry!
This time, Xinchen Entertainment was going to win for sure!
Amidst the anticipation of the audience and online users, and with the two entertainment companies already gearing up for battle, Weiwei's Infinite Smile and A Sweet Love Like Honey, two dramas that had already captured the audience's attention and interest since the announcement of their imminent premiere, finally premiered on a weekend evening.
Many viewers were already waiting in front of their phones, iPads, or televisions, just to watch these two dramas at the earliest opportunity:
"Ahhh, Weiwei's Infinite Smile has finally started! The beginning seems pretty good. I love watching sweet romances like this!"
"I also love watching sweet romances like this, especially since it stars our goddess, Xu Yifei. Ahhh, so excited!"
"The opening theme song is beautiful, and the trailers are also great. Looking forward to the main show!"
...
Watching the opening theme song and trailers of Weiwei's Infinite Smile, with their lightheartedness and the full blush of romance and youth, the audience couldn't help but start sending out bullet comments.
In their words, there was a great deal of anticipation for this youth idol drama.
What's the most important and attractive element of this kind of youth idol drama? Undoubtedly, it's the youthful, beautiful, and handsome male and female leads, as well as sweet romance.
And Weiwei's Infinite Smile undoubtedly had both.
After all, even the most critical people couldn't deny Xu Yifei and Fu Shan's looks.
It would be dishonest to say that Xu Yifei was ugly and Fu Shan was a loser.
These two were indeed handsome and beautiful, exceptionally pleasing to the eye and eye-catching.
Many viewers were drawn to the show because of their good looks.
As for the sweet romance…
In reality, the two of them were a real-life couple.
Therefore, the audience was quite looking forward to the sweet romance portrayed by the two actors in the drama.
Moreover, judging from the trailers, it seemed quite promising.
The audience members indicated that they would continue watching the main episodes to see.
The above represents the current intentions and reactions of the vast audience who were waiting to watch the drama Weiwei's Infinite Smile.
At the same time, concurrently, A Sweet Love Like Honey also premiered on Banana TV Station and Orange Video.
With the opening theme song and trailers playing, the comments section was buzzing. Fans of Zhao Xiao and Zhen Cheng, the two top-tier celebrities, were especially excited, constantly spamming the screen:
"Aaaaaah! Supporting our Zhen Cheng! Zhen Cheng is the most handsome in the universe! Zhen Cheng is the best!"
"I specifically came to watch this drama for Goddess Zhao Xiao. Our Goddess Zhao Xiao is so beautiful! Again and again, reaching new heights of beauty, isn't she? Leaving the competition far behind, thank you! Truly the number one beauty in the universe! Aaaaaah--"
"I'm here for the all-star cast. So many top-tier celebrities and big stars, and it's also Xinchen Entertainment's annual big production. Rumor has it that the investment alone is over a billion, such a large sum. This drama should be pretty good. Super excited!"
"Exactly. Just the production costs and the star cast alone put the competition's Weiwei's Infinite Smile far behind. Haha, so low-class. I'll stick with A Sweet Love Like Honey. I'm sure A Sweet Love Like Honey will definitely be this year's hit!"
Unlike the audience of Weiwei's Infinite Smile, most of the viewers of A Sweet Love Like Honey were there for Zhao Xiao, Zhen Cheng, the two top-tier celebrities, the show's all-star cast, and the previously advertised massive investment as the annual big production.
Therefore, the comments and the style of the comments section were very different from those of Weiwei's Infinite Smile.
The audience of Weiwei's Infinite Smile were all discussing the show itself, expressing their anticipation.
However, the audience of A Sweet Love Like Honey consisted more of fans spamming the comments, filled with the atmosphere of the fandom. At the same time, many people were mixed in, trying to drag down the other show and manipulate the narrative.
It was a muddy mess, a miasma of negativity.
And among them, there were undoubtedly the actions of Xinchen Entertainment, and Fu Zicong.
They had mobilized their own company's professional internet troll team, and also hired many professional trolls. At the very beginning of the broadcast of the two dramas, they began to drag down the other show and manipulate the narrative, wanting to trample Aifei Entertainment and Weiwei's Infinite Smile under their feet in one fell swoop.
Regarding this, Li Yi, as the assistant, was extremely confident.
That evening, when he was on the phone with Fu Zicong, reporting the work, he was very cheerful:
"President Fu, everything is proceeding according to your plan. Rest assured, this time, there will be absolutely no mistakes. We, Xinchen Entertainment, are definitely going to win! A Sweet Love Like Honey, whether in ratings or reputation, will definitely completely defeat Weiwei's Infinite Smile. Moreover, it will be an overwhelming victory!"
Fu Zicong was very pleased with this. On the other end of the phone, he was equally smug.
"Well done! I can't wait to see the expressions on the faces of Aifei Entertainment and Xiangnan TV Station tomorrow when the premiere's viewership data is released. Hahaha."
