Chapter 1197: A Slap in the Face
Since the incident involving The Performer, Chief Hu had learned not to force down Classic X Files or anything, or even to fight for ratings with it and plan to push their ratings low .
Regarding this point, Chief Hu still had some rationality left in him .
However, he didn’t want the other party’s ratings to look too great either .
At least, he wanted it to be on par with Friday (with the Stars) .
After all, Friday (with the Stars) had been on the air all this time while it would be the grand finale of Classic X Files . Typically, their ratings should be sky-high, but if their ratings were forced down to be average, not standing out all, then Chief Hu would have achieved his goal .
His main aim was to make Lu Man look bad .
Especially during the time when Lu Man was on stage . If he could snatch the audiences over to Friday (with the Stars) during that time, then it would be such a big fat slap on the face .

Moreover, this time, Chief Hu had learned greatly from his previous mistakes . He ordered that none of the staff in the station were to leak it out .
Even though he felt that Friday (with the Stars) wouldn’t lose, he wanted to be safe rather than sorry . He didn’t want to be embarrassed when the time came either .
This time, to fight against the finale of Classic X Files, Chief Hu specially channeled more funds to Friday (with the Stars) to get them to invite more heavyweight guests .
They managed to invite those really big heavyweights, but they would definitely ensure that there would be many fans .
Those fans would be willing to watch their show for the sake of their idols .
As for the four guests that they had invited, Chief Hu was rather pleased .

“The show will air tomorrow, how are the preparations coming?” Chief Hu confirmed with them again .
The executive director of Friday (with the Stars), Kuang Guanghui, said, “Everything has all been edited . I’ve watched the final cut too . It’s not bad . The content is rich, and there are many funny scenes . There will also be a large number of fans from Lu Hancheng and Park Sungjae . Even if they don’t usually watch our show, they would watch it for them . ”
“Lu Man had already invited Sun Yiwu and Ji Cheng before . She definitely wouldn’t pull the same trick twice . As long as Sun Yiwu or Ji Cheng isn’t there, no matter who she finds, we’ll not be afraid,” Kuang Guanghui said . “However, even if Sun Yiwu and Ji Cheng were to be there, we won’t be afraid either . The guest lineup for our upcoming episode is honestly way too good . We didn’t have to do much publicity yet the netizens are already blowing up . All of them are saying that they will watch it . ”
Chief Hu nodded in satisfaction . “Alright, I’ll leave the rest to you . Nothing can ever go wrong . ”
“Yes,” Kuang Guanghui guaranteed .

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday night .
This was Wang Juhuai and Xia Qingwei’s first time on television . Therefore, Han Zhuoli and Lu Man were both gathered at Yi Garden to watch it all together .
Lu Man wasn’t concerned about her own performance . Hence, before Wang Juhuai and Xia Qingwei appeared, Lu Man was scrolling through Weibo as she watched .
“Lin Yantao is not bad, but Jiang Yuhan is a bit boring . Lu Man’s performance was very steady . ”
“There’s nothing interesting at the start . I don’t want to watch it anymore . Friday (with the Stars) seems more interesting, I’ll go watch that instead . ”
“I’ve started watching Friday (with the Stars) first too . Only Lin Yantao and Lu Man were interesting . Zheng Yikun was too over-the-top . I’ll just watch it tomorrow on the Internet, I could just skip past the parts that I don’t like . ”
From the netizens’ comments, it seemed that quite some people had switched over to watch Friday (with the Stars) .
Xia Qingwei saw it too and felt a little worried . “If that’s the case, won’t the ratings of the show be very low? It’s obvious that Xing Ke Station is going against you . What if they blame it all on you when the ratings are low?”
