The Protector III

Chapter 453

"What? I can't believe their movies are this good! Even I was engrossed!"
Zachary seemed genuinely entertained after they finished watching the movies.

Niall, Yvonne, and the rest were anxious.

"How are their movies so good? Look at how their popularity is booming! I can't
find a single bad review!"

"Even though they're not on the recommendations list, they're one of the top ten
most popular movies right now! Their popularity is still rising too!"

"What now? Should we do something about it?"

The artists were as anxious and as nervous as cats.

The fact that the Oriental Star Group's movies were spectacular was a huge
embarrassment to them.

More importantly, the main actors were the rookies that they've seen before.

How are they so good at acting?

This made them feel indignant.

Their manager, Winnie sighed.

She was good at judging the current consumers' needs.
People like Niall are more suited to join variety shows or just become a public
figure.

Acting in movies requires actual acting skills, which they lack.

Oriental Star Group's two movies' popularity was rising in streaming websites.

"I get it now. The fact that Shanks Entertainment said that Oriental Star
plagiarized their movies is a whole ruse to sabotage them! You have seven
movies and they only have two, how dare you accuse them of plagiarism?"

"Yeah! Can your seven terrible movies be compared to their two masterpieces?
How shameless can they get?"

"Everyone listen to me. Don't watch those terrible movies anymore. Go and
watch the Oriental Star Group's two movies instead! They really are good!"

An intense discussion sparked in the comments section of the seven movies
starred by Niall and the rest.

While everyone was lambasting the seven movies, everyone went to watch
Oriental Star Group's two movies instead.

Furthermore, the Oriental Star Group's publicity team reignited the discussion
about the plagiarism accusations to hype the movie up even more.

They then brought up the incident where Niall and his gang had acted all high
and mighty and quit their jobs.

There was even video proof about how Niall had splashed Horace Engler with
water, and how he had beaten Maurice Lorraine up.

The netizens were enraged when they caught hold of the news, and they started
to lambast artists like Niall and Yvonne.
Even their fans started to attack them.

"Niall Xander, you b*****d! Give me back my f***ing money!"

"This bastard only knows how to scam people! He can't even act! What a piece
of trash!"

"Helena Engler is my idol from now on! Yvonne Wren can get lost!"

"Pigs like Niall Xander don't deserve to be artists. I'm gonna be Maurice
Lorraine's fan from now on. He's so handsome and so good at acting!"

After that incident, Shanks Entertainment not only suffered a major loss, Niall and
the other actors' and actresses' reputations were tarnished as well.

In no time, everyone knew that Shanks Entertainment's seven movies were
horrible; no one bothered to watch them anymore.

The only ones watching them right now were the ones who wanted to lambast
them.

On the other hand, Oriental Star Group's two movies rose in popularity even
though they weren't on the recommendations list.

They quickly took the first and second spot in the popularity rankings.

Bang!

Crack!

Zachary was so furious that he smashed the tablet on the floor.

Niall and his colleagues had thunderous expressions as they fell silent.
At that moment, Zachary received a phone call.

"Hello, President Shorts, I am a representative from Penguin Films. I'm here to
inform you that your films have been kicked off the recommendations list!"

"Hello, President Shorts, I am a representative of Kiwi Films. I'm here to inform
you that your company's seven movies' reviews were too bad, so we took it off
the recommendations list!"

"Hello, President Shorts, I am a representative from U-Cool. Your movies are not
gaining enough revenue, so we're planning to take them off the
recommendations list!"
