Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

She was just a little confused: "You were the one who did Xiao Ai's makeup, why did you give the credit to Miao Mengqin?"

Hoshikawa Taku's gaze fell back on her, and he said calmly, "Because Miao Meng agreed to become an artist under my agency, I have to be responsible for her. I can't let her bear the stigma and be ridiculed and insulted online."

After hearing these words, although Miao Meng didn't say anything, she couldn't hide the shock in her eyes at that moment, and she burst into tears of gratitude towards Xingchuan Taku.

He's so nice! He gave me such a big gift even though I haven't agreed to join the firm yet!

In an instant, Miao Meng's still hesitant heart was completely shattered.

She has made up her mind at this moment that she will join Taku Hoshikawa's agency after this video is released!

What Taku Hoshikawa said was not only to Meow Meng, but also to Hasegawa.

What people fear most is horizontal comparison, and the same is true between firms.

Although Hasegawa has not yet had solid evidence to prove that the rumors about Xiao Ai were spread by the agency, she knew in her heart that the other party must be fanning the flames behind the scenes - just to reduce compensation and divert public opinion.

For the sake of profit, they were willing to push a young idol who had been in an accident into the abyss of public opinion, making her appear in front of the public in a bad posture, causing damage to her body and mind.

Hoshikawa Taku treats his artists like family members. When his artists encounter public opinion storms, he immediately tries to clarify and whitewash them...

At this moment, the balance in Hasegawa's heart also quietly tilted towards Hoshikawa Taku.

Chapter 212: Mizuno Ai’s first live broadcast after the accident.

Miao Meng knew that Hoshikawa Taku asked her to work with Mizuno Ai in order to help her regain public trust.

Even when it was just a "pose", she took it very seriously to ensure that she appeared the most professional and credible in front of the camera.

A corner of the ward was set up as a slightly casual dressing table, illuminated by a photographic light prepared for live broadcast.

Mizuno Ai sat in front of the mirror, and Miao Meng pretended to put on makeup for her seriously, occasionally commenting on the products and steps in a serious manner.

Taku Hoshikawa was outside the camera, directing the camera position, controlling the angle and lighting to ensure that Meow's movements in the picture were natural and professional, and the process of Mizuno Ai's makeup gradually being "completed" was clearly visible.

It was clearly just "acting", but the whole process was meticulous.

When the last shot was completed, Taku Hoshikawa nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good. Once this video is released, Miao Meng, you can completely clear your name."

"that……"

Mizuno Ai raised her hand and suggested, "Wouldn't it be better if Miao Mengqin and I appeared together in the live broadcast?"

Taku Hoshikawa shook his head and rejected Mizuno Ai's kindness.

"Everyone in this livestream is here to see you. If Miao Meng shows up, it'll inevitably be seen as a freeloader. A third-person behind-the-scenes look is better."

It's actually like this! ?

Could this be the trigger that causes him to get inflamed?

Miao Meng almost agreed impulsively, luckily Xingchuan Taku reminded her.

Miao Meng looked at Xingchuan Taku, and there was a hint of heat in her eyes.

In just half a day, Taku Hoshikawa had refreshed many of Miao Meng's cognitions, allowing Miao Meng to gain a lot.

Taku Hoshikawa is not only good at network operations, but also truly understands how to help artists avoid risks and prepare for future events.

If he could guide me on my path to becoming a future beauty blogger or even an idol artist... I would definitely be able to avoid many detours and avoid many invisible pitfalls!

Now it is no longer that Taku Hoshikawa asks Meow Meng to join the agency, but even if Taku Hoshikawa refuses, Meow Meng will find ways to join.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was time for the live broadcast.

Mizuno Ai's agency had already announced that she would be doing a live broadcast, and many people were eagerly waiting for it. Countless fans and passers-by had already flocked into the live broadcast room early.

The chat room was scrolling rapidly, and all kinds of comments came in like a flood, making it almost impossible to see the original interface.

[After so many days, I can finally see Xiao Ai! ]

I heard Xiao Ai seems to have been disfigured. Would she still dare to livestream? The marketing account said it was burns, and there are large facial scars... As a fan of Xiao Ai, I can't bear to watch it.

[No, this must be a rumor from the enemy. Xiao Ai must be fine!]

[She worked so hard, but ended up like this. Such talent is truly envied by heaven...]

[As long as she is still alive, I will be very happy...]

Some fans still hold out hope and want to wait for a miracle, but more people are just spectators attracted by rumors and come to watch.

The live broadcast has not yet started, but the number of people in the live broadcast room has quickly approached 100,000, and the term "Mizuno Ai's first live broadcast after the accident" has even topped the hot search list of several major platforms.

At the same time, on the other side, in the conference room of the office building, the lights were bright, but the atmosphere was indescribably cold and solemn.

The supervisor sat with his legs crossed in a dark leather chair, staring at the live comments on the computer in front of him with a frown.

There was a cup of warm coffee in front of him, but it had already cooled down before he even took a sip.

"The live broadcast hasn't even started yet and there are already 100,000 people flocking in. This kind of popularity... If she really wasn't disfigured, maybe we could use this opportunity to push her to the top of the stream."

"It's just a pity... Since she has no value now, all this traffic can only be thrown away."

The supervisor sighed.

He felt sorry for Mizuno Ai, but since the higher-ups had given the order, he had no choice but to do this in order to save the firm more money and resources.

It's cruel and heartless, but who made her lose her greatest value as an idol - her face?

Just as Hoshikawa Taku guessed, all of this was the work of the agency, and it was they who spread the news of Mizuno Ai's "disfigurement".

In the live broadcast room, they did not delete or block those malicious comments that questioned and watched the fun, allowing the situation to develop in the direction that was most unfavorable to Mizuno Ai.

Although it is a pity that Mizuno Ai's acting career ended here, we can't really compensate her with hundreds of millions of yen, right?

"Director, I've contacted Hasegawa's agent, and she said everything is ready and the show will be airing soon."

The subordinate came to his side with a tablet in hand and spoke cautiously.

"very good."

The supervisor's eyes flashed coldly, and he gestured to another male employee in a well-tailored suit standing beside him, "Where's the press release?"

"Everything is ready,"

The man immediately lit up the tablet in his hand and pushed it towards the supervisor. On the page were several edited press release titles:

[The "Legendary Idol"'s first live broadcast after the accident, Mizuno Ai tragically transformed into a terrifying monster]

[Live broadcast goes haywire! Mizuno Ai's comeback fails, and using makeup to cover scars sparks controversy]

Is Ai Mizuno's comeback after a suspected disfigurement a possibility? Industry insiders comment: Her acting career may be over.

"As long as the live broadcast starts and there's some 'effect', our script can be released simultaneously."

The person added, "We've contacted more than a dozen self-media outlets to promote it together, and with the help of a few water army accounts, the effect will definitely be great."

"……very good."

The supervisor slowly leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and said calmly, "Then wait for the live broadcast to begin."

In addition to the two of them, there were several subordinates who had not yet left work and were sitting downstairs in the office, busy doing their own things.

They are the agency's public relations team and are supposed to protect the reputation of their artists, but now, they are slandering the most popular and most trafficked idol in the agency.

They were also uneasy, but this was a task ordered by their superiors, so they had no choice but to do it.

As time passed, they became more and more nervous.

finally--

"The live broadcast has begun!"

As the countdown reached zero, the picture in the live broadcast room instantly turned from blurry to clear. A beam of soft light slowly fell from the center of the screen, outlining the silhouette of the girl.

——That’s Mizuno Ai.

She stood in front of a single ward, wearing a hospital gown and bandages all over her body. Her thin body made people feel pity for her.

But the most shocking thing was her face - it was a flawless face.

The fair and delicate skin seems to have a delicate luster under the soft light, with soft and natural contours and clean and clear cheek lines.

The most important thing is that there is not a single scar on her face, not a single trace of unnatural makeup, her skin color is exactly the same as her neck, there is not a single heaviness, not a single mottled feeling.

Even if the lens is magnified ten times, even if the image quality is high-definition, no flaw can be found.

All the so-called "disfigurement" rumors turned into false jokes at this moment.

The live broadcast room was silent for a few seconds, and then the barrage exploded——

[Is this the legendary disfigurement? Is my eye damaged?]

[Damn, she's even more beautiful than before! How did she do that makeup!?]

[Her face is totally fine! It's a lie! All the marketing accounts are scammers!]

[Who said she's useless? I'm back as a fan now!]

[She's so beautiful, it's like she's had a completely different face... No, I should say, this is her true appearance! We look forward to Xiao Ai's return!]

As soon as Mizuno Ai showed up, the tone of the comments took a sharp turn for the worse.

From initial doubt to shock, from sarcasm to fanaticism, the rhythm of the comment section was completely reversed, leaving those who were originally prepared to laugh at the joke speechless.

Even many of Kuromizu No Ai's accounts originally prepared by the agency quietly chose to "go dark" or directly delete comments.

Their biggest point of attack is Mizuno Ai's "disfigurement", but at this moment Mizuno Ai's live broadcast is the biggest proof that even if they try to criticize her, they can't hit the point.

In the office building, the atmosphere in the conference room became extremely solemn.

The coffee cup in the supervisor's hand made a "click" sound, and a fine crack appeared on the rim of the cup as his fingertips trembled.

"……This is impossible."

He put his eyes close to the screen and stared at the "perfect" face.

"Her face is clearly... already ruined. How could it possibly be restored to this state?"

It's not like he hasn't confirmed it. Just yesterday, he went to the hospital ward in person on the pretext of "visiting" and saw Mizuno Ai's scarred appearance.

She was so weak that she couldn't get out of bed, and she felt sleepy and wanted to fall asleep after talking for a while. How come she seemed like a different person in just one day?

The conference room was completely silent, and the atmosphere was almost at its lowest point.

The male staff member who had been preparing the press release stood there in a daze, as if he had lost the ability to speak. His eyes flickered, and after a moment's hesitation, he stammered, "What are you doing?"

"Master, Supervisor...do we still need to send out the press release?"

The supervisor turned around abruptly, his face dark as water.

"What are you posting about?! Isn't posting now just slapping yourself in the face?!"

"Then our plan..."

"Everyone retreat!"

He slammed the table angrily, "Right now! Remove everything! Don't let her get the attention anymore!"

Unfortunately, it was already too late. Some of the self-media and internet trolls they had contacted in advance didn't even watch the live broadcast, but sent out the pre-written press releases of "disfigurement", "crash", and "failed comeback" on time.

Immediately, he was ridiculed and attacked by netizens.

[Didn’t you guys watch the live broadcast? Xiao Ai is doing fine! ]

[Do you really want to see Xiao Ai disfigured? Are you guys paid trolls?]

When the news from the supervisor reached the mouths of these water army leaders and entertainment circle self-media, they only then hurriedly deleted the comments, but unfortunately, it was too late.

Taku Hoshikawa had already arranged people to guard the live broadcast barrage area and related social platforms, and take screenshots and record any movement immediately.

Every "teasing" comment and every malicious press release are all archived and organized one by one.

Looking at the message sent by his employees, the corners of Taku Hoshikawa's mouth rose slightly.

"Just as I thought, the firm really doesn't want to waste a single moment. Now I'm catching them by surprise."

This information is very important and is enough to prove that there is a mastermind behind the scenes who is organized and disciplined in Hei Shui Ye Ai.

These records will serve as important evidence and will come in handy when confronting Mizuno Ai's agency.
