Chapter 782: Chapter 387: Teaching the Entire Industry a Lesson

Moreover, a thought suddenly struck him. If these three shows were really as his boss claimed, then when the video he’d recorded was released, all those industry insiders were about to get schooled.

Especially the ones currently making a fuss, along with iQiyi and Penguin Film and Television.

Chen Jincheng smiled again and said, "Let’s test my theory. I’ll edit a clip from *All is Well* and post it. You’ll see what happens."

As he spoke, he was already editing on his computer. A moment later, a short clip of Guo Jingfei doing his "silky smooth" dance was ready.

After *All is Well* went live, this "Guo Jingfei’s Silky Smooth" moment had even sparked a wave of imitation videos from various content creators.

He sent the video directly to Yijin with a simple instruction: "Post this."

Over at Yijin Studio, Yijin was on his computer watching a newly edited video clip. When he received the message from Chen Jincheng, he checked it immediately. His eyes lit up as soon as he saw the video and the instructions. He quickly contacted the members of the video clipping team in their group chat.

’Suddenly, making clips for Brother Cheng feels so much more prestigious,’ he thought. ’We’ve gone straight to the big leagues of the entertainment industry.’

Just how powerful was Chen Jincheng’s video clipping team?

In less than an hour, aside from the buzz around Chen Jincheng’s own video, "Am I Just Tricking You Into Buying Those Two Shows?", the "Guo Jingfei’s Silky Smooth" clip shot straight onto Tiao Yin’s trending topics. Its popularity was second only to Chen Jincheng himself.

The entire internet exploded with activity. Most people figured this had to be a clip from *All is Well*.

And everyone who saw Guo Jingfei’s "silky smooth" performance was delighted.

"Holy shit, is this from *All is Well*? I didn’t know Guo Jingfei had moves like that!"

"Haha, it doesn’t even feel like he’s acting. It’s like we’re seeing his true self just having fun."

"I don’t know why, but this is actually pretty cool. And his dancing is really good."

"..."

After the video appeared, Sun Ji watched the comments roll in. He found that the simple clip had genuinely created a huge buzz. In a short amount of time, riding the wave of popularity, the video had already surpassed a million likes and was still climbing.

The crucial part was that many people were now saying they were starting to look forward to the show. Among the three series, the online buzz for *All is Well* suddenly shot far into the lead. The hype for it now surpassed the other two shows by a huge margin.

Seeing this, Sun Ji grew even more excited about the outcome his boss had predicted.

But the hype for "Guo Jingfei’s Silky Smooth" moment online was still growing rapidly. Meanwhile, the man at the center of it all, Guo Jingfei, had no idea he’d suddenly gone viral. He was busy filming a reality show with Master Guo.

He was chatting with Master Guo when his assistant came rushing over, his face alight with excitement. "Brother Fei! Brother Fei! You’ve blown up! You’re huge right now!"

"What’s going on???" Guo Jingfei was baffled. ’How did I blow up out of nowhere?’

"Quick, check Tiao Yin!" his assistant urged.

Confused, Guo Jingfei took out his phone. A moment later, he gasped, "Holy shit!"

’He saw it too—his own "silky smooth" moment. Wasn’t this from *All is Well*, that show he’d filmed? It seemed Second-Life Star had bought the rights to it, and now it was getting a lot of buzz online.’

’He just never expected that a clip from the show would be released, let alone that it would get this popular.’

His assistant said excitedly, "Brother Fei, do you see this? Your popularity is right behind Luo Xiaozhu and Chen Jincheng right now! Everyone’s talking about your silky smooth... your silky smooth dance! This has to be a marketing push from Chen Jincheng’s team. He’s really backing *All is Well*."

’An image of a handsome young man immediately surfaced in Guo Jingfei’s mind. If that was the case, he really owed him one. He had to thank him in person if he ever got the chance.’

But he wasn’t a fool. Seizing the momentum, he immediately told his assistant, "Quick, help me record a video! I have to do this dance and upload it now."

Soon, Master Guo and the other cast members of the reality show learned what was happening. They all gathered around to see what the fuss was about, looking at Guo Jingfei with envy.

The buzz online was real. If *All is Well* truly became a hit, then Guo Jingfei was about to become a household name.

’But then again,’ they wondered, ’surely iQiyi and Penguin Video couldn’t have been that blind about these three shows, right?’

They now had mixed feelings. Part of them feared Guo Jingfei’s show would bomb, yet another part of them feared it would become a massive hit.

Naturally, over at Penguin Film and Television, Huang Zhen had also heard the news. Seeing the hype around "Silky Smooth Guo Jingfei," his brow furrowed slightly. "Has Chen Jincheng already started his marketing campaign?"

The person beside him reported, "President Huang, the buzz for *All is Well* has now surpassed ours. On top of that, audience anticipation has shot up. Chen Jincheng’s move was very effective."

Huang Zhen snorted. "These are just cheap tricks. Using some goofy video to attract viewers... it doesn’t showcase any acting, nor does it reveal any of the plot. When the show actually airs, the higher the audience’s expectations, the greater their disappointment will be. Even more people will end up trashing it."

"Just wait. It’s premiering soon anyway. We’ll see who’s right soon enough."
