Revenge Begins: Reincarnated as a Hated Idol! - Chapter 98: The Boycott Avalanche

Translate to:
Chapter 98: The Boycott Avalanche

The following day after the evidence revealed Titan Crest Entertainment’s lies, Ember sent her best talent agents to the celebrities signed with Titan Crest Entertainment to make them an offer they won’t be able to refuse.

She had been waiting for this moment.

The moment to snatch Titan Crest Entertainment’s most cherished celebrities.

However, she didn’t send her agents right away that morning; she waited until evening instead.

The reason?

Because that morning, she published a list of celebrities who were signed with Titan Crest Entertainment on Sun News Network’s official accounts for everyone to see.

With this list out in the open, the public could know which celebrities to boycott exactly. Moreover, she even launched a website solely dedicated to keeping track of the celebrities who were still signed with Titan Crest Entertainment.

If any celebrity were to change their agency, their name would disappear from the website, letting the public know in real time who didn’t have to be targeted by them anymore.

[Sun Films has been supporting Aren and the victims from day one. They now have even launched a website to help us keep track of the celebrities needed to be boycotted. They are truly righteous.]

[Sun Films already announced they won’t air any dramas or movies featuring celebrities from Titan Crest Entertainment. Now they are going even further to help the victims get justice.]

[Titan Crest Entertainment needs to face the consequences of their actions. I’m going to boycott every celebrity on this list. I will even boycott other platforms that don’t boycott them.]

[+1. I agree. Let’s barrage those platforms that are still airing the dramas featuring celebrities from Titan Crest Entertainment.]

And then began the boycott movement of dramas airing on different platforms.

Currently, there were numerous dramas airing this month, and some were scheduled to release next week.

However, most of them either had side actors from Titan Crest Entertainment or lead actors leading the drama.

Noel Marsh, an actor as acclaimed as Ryan Black, currently had his drama airing on Phoenix, released just the previous week with only three episodes out. Tonight and tomorrow, the fourth and fifth episodes of his drama, My Sunshine, were scheduled to release.

My Sunshine had quickly ranked first on the popularity rankings on its premiere with Noel Marsh as the lead, and Sophie Glass — a newbie actress with a surprise hit drama — currently signed with Titan Crest Entertainment as the female lead.

After her drama became a hit, she was quickly snatched by Titan Crest Entertainment, and her agency even got this role for her in a major big-budget drama on Phoenix.

She thought she was on the rise of her career after signing with such a big agency backing her; however, as if she had offended some god, Titan Crest Entertainment ended up in one of the biggest scandals of the country.

At first she had dismissed the thought of Titan Crest Entertainment suffering any damage from the scandal; however, after yesterday, all her previous thoughts looked like presumptuous thinking.

Now, she was getting barraged with fan messages, requesting her to change agencies.

Even her own fans had turned against her, saying that they wouldn’t support her unless she changed agencies.

[Sophie, I’m one of your biggest fans. But if you don’t change agencies, I cannot be your fan. I cannot support someone who is associated with evil. Please prove that I wasn’t wrong about you when I chose to support you.]

While her fans were respectful, other netizens were straight up threatening her to change agencies. Some even demanded it, calling her shameless and evil for supporting Titan Crest Entertainment even after knowing the truth about them.

After talking about it with Noel Marsh, she got to know that he was suffering with the same kinds of messages.

For now, Titan Crest Entertainment’s top executives assured her that this outrage of fans was temporary and she didn’t need to worry about it. She just needed to trust them and ignore the fans for a while.

Without any other option, she could only oblige.

After all, changing agencies wasn’t as easy as one might think. They were signed with a contract, which required a large amount of money to break it and change agencies.

How will she come up with such an amount of money as a newbie actress?

Even though her fans were upset with her, she couldn’t do anything but endure the accusations.

However, the next day, she was stunned by the popularity rankings.

Suddenly, her drama, My Sunshine, which had topped the ranking on its premiere thanks to Phoenix’s heavy promotions... was now in last place.

Meanwhile, other top dramas from CloudPlay and Dragon Films had suffered an even worse fate. Their dramas had exited the rankings altogether, not even included in the list.

Suddenly, dramas, whose names she hadn’t even heard the names of, climbed the ranking.

On top were three dramas from Sun Films. None of them had any celebrity from Titan Crest Entertainment and were actually not that high-budget or star-studded.

Actually, these dramas previously had some side actors from Titan Crest Entertainment; however, after Ember’s meeting with Aren, Ember instructed to have their scenes cut out altogether.

As for the dramas with Titan Crest Entertainment actors as leads, she postponed those dramas or shelved them altogether.

Moreover, since Sun Films had openly boycotted Titan Crest Entertainment, the public was more pleased with their platform, thus watching their not-so-great dramas instead of watching top-tier dramas of other platforms.

And to everyone’s shock, AxisPlay dominated the rankings with four dramas in the rankings. One of them was decent; however, the other three were idol dramas with over-the-top effects and low-budget.

Still, people watched them just for their ridiculousness.

The remaining spots were snagged by dramas from other low-tier platforms.

This was like a slap to the top streaming platforms like Phoenix, CloudPlay, and Dragon Films. They had invested so much into their top-tier dramas, and now they weren’t even making it into the rankings, getting outperformed by trashy dramas instead?

Even the advertisements reduced the next day for their dramas, instead switching to Sun Films and AxisPlay, profiting them immensely.

The popularity rankings on that day really crushed Sophie’s hope as her drama, the highly awaited My Sunshine, wasn’t even in the rankings anymore, replaced by some drama on Sun Films airing at midnight.

’Who is even watching dramas at midnight?’

She couldn’t help but scream in her heart.
