“Even if we can’t make it in time for this round, we’ll still be able to use it for our series in the future,” said Guo Qingchen. “The most important thing right now is to poach them and hinder Broken Continent’s subsequent promotions. Even if they find someone else, it’ll be too late. Even if they can find someone in time, how would they be able to get someone so strong?”


“As long as they’re not so strong, we won’t lose.” Guo Qingchen knew the ins and outs of publicity. He sneered, “Don’t worry. Even if we poach them, you won’t lose your job.”


The publicist didn’t really believe it. However, Guo Qingchen had already said all these, so he could only ask around.


They were all in the same industry, so he should be able to get some information at least.


However, he didn’t expect it to be so difficult to find out.


He asked his circle of acquaintances in the industry, but none of them had accepted any publicity job for Broken Continent.


He also tried to find out about a few big shots in the industry, but none of them had accepted either.


Moreover, the news he received was that Broken Continent did not have a publicity team yet.


He was dumbfounded.


Did Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo do the promotions themselves?


He knew that Tan Mo was a genius, but it’s not possible for her to be a genius in every field, right?


This industry was not Tan Mo’s expertise either.


No genius had ever chosen this profession.


From what he knew, geniuses were mostly in the science industry.


The publicist could only reply to Guo Qingchen with a heavy heart, indicating that he had not found anything.


“If there really is a publicity team in the industry, we would definitely be able to find out. Unless that particular publicity team is new to the industry,” the publicist said, “But based on how Tan Jinqi works, it is absolutely impossible for the publicity team to be a newcomer. I asked around but no one knows anything about it. There were also no publicity teams that took up the job for Broken Continent either.”


Guo Qingchen held back and took a few deep breaths before saying, “You asked within the industry but you didn’t get any useful information. So why didn’t you find another way to get more information?”


“I don’t believe that this is an idea Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo could come up with!” Guo Qingchen’s thoughts were very firm, “Didn’t they link up with some marketing accounts? Go ask those marketing accounts! It’s not like this is something they can’t reveal so there’s no reason why they won’t tell you.”


The publicist: “…”


Why didn’t he think of that?


He felt that he was really about to lose his job.


The publicist immediately contacted the marketing accounts.


With great difficulty, he managed to get some information out.


When he came back, he said to Guo Qingchen, “Director, I know who it is…”


Guo Qingchen said angrily, “Then hurry up and tell me!”


“It’s Lu Man,” the publicist said with difficulty.


Guo Qingchen: “…”


There was no need for the publicist to say anything else.


There was no one in the entertainment industry who did not know Lu Man.


Guo Qingchen’s voice was hoa.r.s.e. “Lu… why did Lu Man choose to help them with the promotions?”


Lu Man had many jobs. She was not only in public relations, but she was also an A-list celebrity.


Everything that she partic.i.p.ates in, be it movies, television dramas, or variety shows, the outcomes were always very good. It was good to the point that the ratings of all the programs competing with her would fall very far behind.


However, when he recounted all the programs Lu Man had handled so far, she had only taken on those that were related to her family, friends, or her. She had never taken on any programs that had nothing to do with her.


She would take on the role of a publicist for free in all the programs she starred in.


There was already a saying in the industry that ‘Inviting Lu Man means free publicity for the program’.


With Lu Man doing publicity, it was simply like adding wings to a tiger. Naturally, she would leave all of her compet.i.tors in the dust.


“Lu Man has nothing to do with Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo, right? She doesn’t have a role in Broken Continent, right? Why would she get involved in this for no reason!” Guo Qingchen said incredulously.


“I’m also not sure.” the publicist did not understand either. “I’ve never seen her take on any programs that have nothing to do with her.”


Guo Qingchen was already in no mood to say anything else.


After hanging up the phone, he felt that he was done for.


At least during the promotional period, he was going to be finished.

As Lu Man had expected, the remaining hot searches for Broken Continent continued all the way until the 23rd of this month.


Guo Qingchen had not been eating well or sleeping well these few days. He had been staring at Weibo and Flash Drive every day.


It was as if he had been possessed.


It was now the 24th day of the month. Nine Heavens and Broken Continent would officially be broadcasted the next day.


Guo Qingchen switched between Weibo and Flash Drive and mumbled to himself, “They probably won’t be able to play any more tricks today!”


“You guys have already used up all your moves. I don’t believe you guys have anything else up your sleeves today!” Guo Qingchen didn’t know who to convince. He was the only one in the house, yet he was still talking so loudly, “It will only officially begin when the two dramas broadcast tomorrow!”


Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the notification tone on WeChat rang out again.


Guo Qingchen was about to have PTSD on even the WeChat notification tone now.


He clicked on WeChat and saw that staff member A had sent him a screenshot of a summary posted by a marketing account.


Staff member A: “Director, someone is promoting Broken Continent again. This time, it’s the President and professors of Peking University…”


Guo Qingchen: “…”


How did the siblings manage to find so many people?!


Day after day, the number of people promoting it was simply endless!


Guo Qingchen clicked on the Weibo mini-program that staff member A had shared with him, and then clicked on the client on the page.


It was more convenient to look at the client.


The President of Peking University and the professors formed the group that sang praises of Broken Continent.


The marketing account even took a screenshot of President Mu and the professors’ Weibo profiles, so that the netizens could understand how awesome they were.


After all, President Mu and the professors usually kept a low profile.


Although they were all big shots in their respective fields, if people weren’t related to the professional and academic fields, they probably would not know much about them.


The marketing account not only took the Weibo profiles, but it also posted the encyclopedia, showing President Mu and the professors’ achievements to the netizens.


Guo Qingchen: “…”


“How is Tan Mo able to make President Mu and the professors do all these?” Guo Qingchen didn’t ask who her connections were this time.


Over the past few days, he looked into Tan Mo’s background as he knew that he couldn’t do anything else.


He knew that she was a student of Peking University and had achieved good results for the university.


But just like that, President Mu and a few professors did what Tan Mo wanted?


They should at least pay attention to their status!


How could they listen to Tan Mo’s words!


They also represented Peking University!


“Even if President Mu is the President of Peking University, Peking University does not belong to him alone. How could he be allowed to do this? He even promoted a drama.” Guo Qingchen was furious.


Staff member A said weakly, “I’ve asked around. They didn’t promote it in the name of Peking University. They promoted it personally, so it doesn’t matter.”


Guo Qingchen: “…”


Guo Qingchen clearly didn’t want to, but he couldn’t help but look at the netizens’ comments.


“Although I don’t know what the drama Broken Continent is like, I will have to go and take a look because it’s so actively promoted.”
