This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 485 - 353

Hmm?

Peng Fei was slightly taken aback.

He hadn’t considered this angle at all.

Does their platform’s General Manager really think so highly of Wu Mu?

After the well-informed colleague finished spilling the beans, they steered the topic back, "But I think GM is being a bit optimistic. Who knows what will happen in the future? We still have to focus on the present... Take this drama, for example. If its popularity doesn’t match the resources the company invested, GM will definitely face consequences."

Not just consequences, it might even leave a bad impression on the higher-ups due to poor decision-making and lead to marginalization.

Of course, if the decision is right, it will leave a different impression, showing capability and vision, and GM might be promoted from deputy general manager to head another business unit.

While everyone was chatting, the final round of testing was completed.

It was finally time for the drama to air.

At exactly 6 PM, Tencent Platform released the first two episodes of Wu Mu’s "Disappeared"—one episode free to watch, and one for members only.

...

Southern Province, Lin City.

Office worker Chang Junfei finally had a day off on New Year’s Day. Last night, he had driven back to his home in the countryside of Lin City to visit his parents.

Though he said he was visiting his parents, he actually slept in until late morning.

After waking up, he didn’t get out of bed but stayed in bed playing on his phone.

"Mom, where did you put the cup I used to brush my teeth?" He yawned and asked, toothbrush in hand, after a comfortable sleep.

His mother peeked out from the kitchen, "I washed it and put it in your room’s drawer. Check if it’s there."

In his room.

He took the cup, filled it with water, and while brushing, ran to the kitchen to watch his mom cook. She was preparing food.

In a muffled voice, "I bought this fish on my way back home from a reservoir where they were catching fish. Where’s Dad?"

"He went to the field to dig up water chestnuts. He’ll be back soon."

Chang Junfei paused his actions, "Still digging? How much did he plant?"

After receiving a reassuring answer from his programmer, he still felt somewhat uneasy, "Check everything one more time. There shouldn’t be any lag or slow loading, and test the anti-leech link as well."

His cautious attitude was because he hadn’t forgotten the incident where a rival platform released Wu Mu’s new album, and their whole platform crashed.

Of course, given the larger bandwidth capacity of a video platform, crashing is usually not a concern.

But there could be other bugs.

This project was their platform’s key project of the year, so they had to be cautious.

Yes, a bona fide key project.

They spent 450 million on it, which wasn’t extraordinarily high, not even their highest price spent on a drama last year.

But besides this 450 million, their platform invested many other resources.

Ma Zhong took out his phone to check the feedback on their platform’s resource investments.

"GM, the trending searches have been bought and listed on several major platforms."

"GM, the headquarters have sent out the promotions; the banners are up on several portal sites and news sites, and there’s interactive content with the games "Peace Hero" and "King Returns." QQ also provided chat keywords animations."

"GM, the videos and posts from the contracted streamers and bloggers are ready and will be posted tonight."

The feedback from various channels came in.

In some ways, these resources were more significant than the 450 million spent on the drama.

If converted into actual money, it wouldn’t add up to 450 million.

But if the 450 million is lost, it’s just the platform’s loss, an internal problem. Considering they buy so many dramas every year, some losses are inevitable, and no one would be held accountable.

However, if these resources were invested and failed to achieve the desired impact... it would reflect the decision-maker’s vision and ability, certainly leaving a bad impression on the headquarters.

Yes, these decisions were made by Ma Zhong.

As for the reason...

He recalled his speech at the company meeting.

""

It was clear that he had high hopes for Wu Mu’s career and this drama.

"Mom, where did you put the cup I used to brush my teeth?" He yawned and asked, toothbrush in hand, after a comfortable sleep.
