But at that time, such a trope didn't exist.
After Cheng Zhu's interview video was uploaded, he and Chen Yue became two opposing extremes.
Chen Yue was the one who knew nothing but loved to blabber, and liked to take the moral high ground.
Cheng Zhu, however, had an eye for gems, having recognized the extraordinary nature of "Langya List" early on!
Judging by the ratings of "Langya List," it was following a comeback script.
So why couldn't Cheng Zhu's sponsorship and co-branding be considered a grand comeback?
In the video, Qian asked him, "Did the co-branded products sell well at first?"
Cheng Zhu replied, "Of course not, it's normal since the series had just started airing. Many store managers were worried about surplus stock, afraid the products wouldn't sell."
"Did you share those concerns?" Qian pressed on.
"Not at all. I had the factory send another batch a few days later, and it turned out to be slightly beyond my expectations," Cheng Zhu spoke the truth.
