The battle for the top two spots on today's trending list had many people thinking like Feng Chi, believing it to be a deliberate and planned confrontation between Feng Yi and the Feng Family of Yang City.
Feng Yi received a lot of private messages of a similar nature, with most of the senders adopting a spectator's perspective to inquire.
Some messages Feng Yi couldn't be bothered to deal with, while others who received a reply from him got this explanation:
I really can't decide this, you all think too highly of me.
Those who understood the inside story, who could see the reasons behind this news, of course believed Feng Yi's words.
To devise a detailed publicity plan in such a short time, along with many subsequent measures to promote it, and the first batch of media coverage coming from authoritative sources—it's true that such influence wasn't something Feng Yi could have arranged on his own at the drop of a hat.
