Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Malicious Editing
Nina Quinn couldn’t help but glance at July Quinn in her confusion.
She saw that July Quinn, ever since entering the room, had consistently lain like a corpse, playing on her phone, clearly showing no intention of getting involved in their superficial sisterhood.
Not getting an answer from July Quinn, Nina Quinn turned her gaze to Lynn Sawyer.
She saw Lynn Sawyer also withdrawing her gaze from July Quinn, looking quite relieved.
"Maybe it’s because I kept taking leave when I was a trainee at the company."
"Really?"
Nina Quinn felt that Lynn Sawyer knew July Quinn and even had secrets controlled by July Quinn.
If that were the case, then Lynn Sawyer could be a friend.
The enemy’s enemy is a friend.
Forming an alliance against July Quinn would be more likely to succeed.
But the problem was, July Quinn looked as if she didn’t know Lynn Sawyer at all.
For a moment, Nina Quinn was undecided.
However, just as Nina Quinn was planning to figure out what link existed between July Quinn and Lynn Sawyer during the upcoming intensive training, July Quinn suddenly left the show.
Nina Quinn immediately felt furious and rushed to Holly Houston’s office.
"Holly, why did July Quinn leave? What’s going on here?"
Holly Houston was discussing the next shoot with the director when Nina Quinn suddenly burst in.
"She took leave."
Holly Houston suppressed her annoyance while telling the director, "Let’s discuss the other parts later, you go ahead with your work, and I’ll find you shortly."
This director had done many popular variety shows, and Holly Houston had worked hard to recruit him to Westmarch Television.
Holly Houston didn’t want to leave a bad impression in front of him, as she hoped to continue collaborating with him in the future.
Once the director left, Holly Houston couldn’t help but show an icy expression.
"Nina, the director was just here, did you consider the consequences of your tone?"
"I didn’t know he was in your office."
Nina Quinn didn’t want to waste time on this topic and quickly got to the point.
"How can you allow July Quinn to take leave? Isn’t your show just a plaything? Everyone is training, and she’s not here?"
If July Quinn didn’t stay with the show, how could she get July Quinn’s hair?
But Holly Houston gave her this answer: "July Quinn can take leave anytime, as long as she’s with the show the night before we record the competition."
"What? Why are you giving her such a privilege?"
Even she, Nina Quinn, didn’t have such a privilege, so why did July Quinn?
"Otherwise, she wouldn’t sign the contract, what could I do?"
Holly Houston believed she had done everything she could to bring July Quinn into the show.
"But what am I supposed to do if she’s always absent from the show?"
She joined this show with a purpose.
However, Holly Houston was unperturbed: "She comes back to the show the night before each competition recording, you’ll have your chance. What are you worried about?"
"But..." Nina Quinn wanted to say more.
But Holly Houston didn’t wait for her to finish and directly pulled her to the computer.
"Don’t worry about trivial things now, let me show you something satisfying."
Saying this, Holly Houston opened the official Weibo of "Competition Dance."
Then, Nina Quinn saw a preview video of "Competition Dance."
In that preview, regardless of whether July Quinn was facing Silas Donovan or her, Nina Quinn, her greeting was cold to the extreme.
Meanwhile, the courteous segment towards Ethan Chase was entirely removed.
The comment section below had already become lively.
[Why is July Quinn so aloof? Oh my, I feel like my perfect image of her has crumbled.]
[It’s quite hurtful, this attitude.]
Of course, some of July Quinn’s fans began to defend her.
[I think July Quinn might be feeling unwell, that’s why she’s like this. When I’m feeling unwell, I too don’t feel like interacting with anyone.]
[How could July be so cold and ruthless? It must be the show’s malicious editing.]
But no matter how hard the fans tried to control the narrative, they couldn’t withstand the guidance of the hired commenters.
[Here they come, bringing lousy excuses with them...]
[What mysterious existence in the entertainment circle, I think her former agency half-frozen her because they were worried her bad temper would affect the team’s harmony!]
Due to the deliberate guidance of the hired commenters, more people joined the campaign against July Quinn.
And like this, the promotional video was quickly trending, seemingly on the brink of reaching number one.
