Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!

Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Does Someone Like Jiang Li Deserve to Have a Fan Club?

Director Sun, tongue-tied, finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, “Next time, it can’t be like this, it’s very difficult for our production team if you act like this.”

Jiang Li’s expression remained unchanged. “But isn’t it due to your production team’s lack of consideration? Why blame me? Wouldn’t that be considered moral kidnapping?”

Director Sun: !!!

Commentary Barrage: !!!

Jiang Li’s ability to turn the situation on its head had the live audience shouting how awesome her move was.

In the past, artists who went on variety shows and encountered troublemaking production teams either endured silently or lost their temper on the spot.

Jiang Li was the first to calmly find reasons to refute and even managed to put a figurative hat on the production team.

And her counterattack was very clever; she didn’t just accept blame but instead, turned it around to point out the holes in Director Sun’s and the production team’s actions.

Not seeking to prove herself innocent, but rather to have them prove their guilt.

Brilliant! It was truly brilliant!

They’ve learned something new!

Jiang Li’s series of retorts instantly changed Director Sun’s complexion.

If he were to be labeled as guilty of moral kidnapping, wouldn’t that be unacceptable?

Modern netizens simply couldn’t stand to hear these four words.

So he waved his hands quickly: “I, I didn’t mean that at all, Xiao Li, don’t just wrongly accuse me, okay, okay, okay, this time consider it a lack of consideration from our production team, I’ll pretend I didn’t see what happened between you and Jiang Yan.”

Only then did Jiang Li slightly smile, turn around, and walk away.

Director Sun instantly exhaled a breath of relief, and the tension in his spine relaxed.

Wait a minute.

Isn’t he supposed to be the director?

Why should he be afraid of an amateur guest who hasn’t even debuted?!

On the other hand, Jiang Yan had already fully geared up to work the land; looking up, he found that Jiang Li was already preparing to leave with poise.

Feeling extremely frustrated, he immediately called out to her.

“Hey, where are you going, just dumping the work on me like this?!”

Jiang Li slowly turned around, “Otherwise? You’ve already agreed, haven’t you? Since I no longer have a task, it’s a waste of time to just wait here; I might as well go back and read a book.”

“Oh, and by the way, I should mention that Director Sun is already aware of our deal, and he’s tacitly approved, but on the condition that you only complete the task if you finish working both plots of land.”

“What?!” Jiang Yan’s roar echoed in the valley for a long time.

Wen Jiaojiao, who had been constantly complaining, immediately felt much more pleased with the situation.

Compared to Jiang Yan’s two plots, what was her single plot in comparison?

It just favored that woman, Jiang Li!

Always clever in finding opportunistic shortcuts!

But they were still live on air, and the netizens would surely see her vile face, thereby realizing that she is the most serious, the most hardworking one in this show!

As time went on and the sun climbed higher, the fields previously shaded by the mountain were now completely exposed to the blazing sun.

The guests quickly started sweating profusely.

To make matters worse, they hadn’t had a thing to eat, and the weeding task was getting slower and more laborious.

Wen Jiaojiao lost her temper every five minutes.

The directing team, which had initially been convincing, eventually stepped aside, stopped meddling, and even issued the final decree: “No food forever if the work isn’t completed.”

With no other choice, Wen Jiaojiao could only pursely puckered and continued to hoe the field with resentment.

Having hands that had never touched spring water for menial tasks, she soon had her gloved hands blistered and raw.

A wave of sympathy floated across the screen in the form of bullet comments.

Despite Wen Jiaojiao’s fiery temper, there were still many who were drawn to her personality and good looks, immediately cursing the show’s cold-heartedness and ruthlessness in the live chat.

“Why does Jiang Li get to go and rest while our Jiaojiao has to suffer and toil here?”

“Exactly, Jiaojiao is a lady of high rank, how can she be expected to do such menial labor?”

“I really can’t stand it anymore, wasn’t it her own choice to join this show? Now that she’s here, why is she the only one who can’t work?”

“Our Lili also earned her rest with her own intelligence; Princess Wen, if you don’t have the brains, then work hard and stop throwing a fit.”

“How does that saying go again? ‘The world’s most comfortable living is always for the smartest few.’ Princess Wen, you have no talent, yet you expect others to share your misery. You’re really good at having your cake and eating it too.”

Inspired by Jiang Li’s retort to Director Sun, her fans’ intensity in the online clash skyrocketed.

Soon enough, Wen Jiaojiao’s camp began to lose ground and started to slander other guests to join them in attacking Jiang Li’s fans.@@novelbin@@

The fight in the live chat became so intense that it even made it to the trending topics.

The general public, unaware of the full context, only saw these fragmented screenshots and uniformly agreed that Jiang Li’s fans were too arrogant and sharp.

Though Jiang Li’s loyal fans were whole-heartedly defending her, the reality was that she was an unknown without entertainment industry resources or a sizeable fan base, and it wasn’t long before public opinion online started to tilt in favor of Wen Jiaojiao.

Seeing Jiang Li about to be burdened with a bad reputation again, Lu Xingchao was incredibly anxious.

This couldn’t go on; he had to do something for his goddess!

Lu Xingchao had initially wanted to use his main account to post a Weibo to drum up reliable fan support for Jiang Li.

But upon reflection, he deemed it too impulsive.

He had just ranked in the top three up-and-comers on the Blue Star live streaming platform and knew all too well how many were watching him with envious eyes.

If he recklessly associated Jiang Li with himself now, those people would surely turn their guns on her immediately.

She was already in a precarious position, and he couldn’t push her further into it.

So instead, he quickly registered another account and posted a Weibo seeking genuine fans for Jiang Li.

Feeling the exposure was still not enough, he immediately invested fifty thousand yuan to boost the post’s visibility.

The comment section instantly came alive.

Many came out in response, declaring they would support Jiang Li to the end.

But there was even more mockery and sneering; how could an unknown like Jiang Li deserve a fan club?

Perhaps influenced by the trending smear campaign, even though there were like-minded comments, nobody actually reached out to Lu Xingchao privately.

Lu Xingchao had almost lost hope until someone with the ID “Shiguang” followed him and sent a private message.

“Hello, are you a fan of Jiang Li, too? If a fan club is set up, can I join?”

Lu Xingchao was so excited he nearly dropped his phone, but he quickly regained his composure.

What if this was a deep mole from her haters, pretending to be a fan to test him?

Sure enough, upon checking the Weibo account of this person, he found it was not only newly registered but also devoid of any content, and it hadn’t even followed Jiang Li’s Weibo.

Lu Xingchao chuckled derisively and sent a formidable barrage of five questions:

“When was Jiang Li born? What’s her favorite food? What’s her favorite amusement? What’s her favorite color? What is her grandfather’s name?”

A few seconds later, he received a reply.

Shiguang: “Jiang Li was born on October 24th, 2002. Her favorite food is rouge goose, her favorite amusement is Dancing Gun, her favorite color is white, and her grandfather’s name is Jiang Zhao Yuan.”
