Contract Lover - L.K Adaptation

Chapter 58 - Missed ("Lili, it will be alright") (3)

Looking at her own reflection reflected off of
Lin's sunglasses, her lips curved upward and
she said, "I still think that it is a done deal that Jiang Taehyung will be Brand B's spokesperson. I don't think they'll switch him out all of a sudden... He is, after all, the film emperor with many good works under his belt."

"A jewelry company is not the same as an
entertainment company. They don't care about box
office performance. As for his stardom... with Brand B's status, they don't care that much about that either. What the designers care about was more the model's temperament and how much they mesh with their designs," said Lin Jennie as she patted Xu Lisa  on her shoulder. "Jiang Taehyung and a few other actors/actresses will be there tonight as well. Be prepared to show them who's the boss, girl."

While they were still filming in the day time, the news about Brand B sending out audition invitation for the role of their spokesperson broke on Weibo. Someone even started a poll to have the netizens vote on which of the celebrities that had been closely associated with Brand B as of late would win this title at the very end.

Seductive warm man Jiang Taehyung was the one who received the most votes.

In the comments, a bunch of his female fans cried
and groveled for Jiang Taehyung to get the role.

[The spokesperson of Brand B, what kind of a
breakthrough would that be!!]

[I have already saved up 3-months' salary for their cheapest ring to help boost JiangJiang's sales.]

[The student gang cried so much that we are going
blind. There really is no way for us to be able to
support him.]

[JiangJiang is the best!]

[Brand B has very few male spokespersons in
other countries. I think JiangJiang's best shot will
be becoming their spokesperson for their watch
series. The China spokesperson most likely will be an actress.]

[I don't care! I root for JiangJiang. If he gets the
role, I will have instant noodles for three months in
order to support him!]

[especially because the spokespersons in other
areas are all female that will make our JiangJiang
stands out even more! If he did get the role, it will for sure be an acknowledgement of his status.]

[Jewelries can move me. JiangJiang can move me
even more!]

[Setting a new goal for myself - buy something
every 3 months in support of Jiang Jiang!]

Among all the speculations, the call for Jiang Taehyung  went up and up. The discussion of who'd become Brand B's spokesperson intensified

...

After work that night, Xu Lisa went over to the
audition location by car. The audition has not yet
started, but the list of celebrities who'd be partaking
in this audition has already been posted on Weibo.

Jiang Taehyung and a few other actresses' names
were expected. It was when everyone saw Xu Lisa's name when all hell broke loose.

[You are kidding me, right? It has got to be a joke.
Who the heck is this Xu Lisa? How come she was
invited?]

[If Xu Lisa ends up with the role, how much
strings did she pull behind the scene?]

[If this list is real, I will eat my keyboard.]

[I'd think her being there alone had already lowered the prestigious of the event]

[An 180th tier actress like Xu Lisa who was
already on her way to be phased out can take the
role from a lineup of 1st tier celebrities? No way in
hell!]

[Does Brand B not care about their sales anymore?
Their plan is for their company to go belly up?]

[Can we please just let our quiet JiangJiang can be
his pretty self and not have Xu Lisa within 500
meters of him? Thank you.]

Amidst all the discussions, pictures of the celebrities
arriving for the audition outside of the hotels had
been leaked online. Xu Lisa walked behind two
top-tiered actresses but not only was she able to rival them in her look, she was arguably better looking than they were.

The face of Jiang Taehyung's fan who said she'd eat the keyboard was slapped swollen.
