"Hello, is this Southern Daily? We would like to buy ad space in the entertainment section to promote 'Lost City'... Oh, okay, thank you," Xu Xiaowen's crew member wiped the sweat off his brow and hung up the phone after another flat refusal.
He proceeded to make another call: "Hello, is this Phoenix... We would like to... Oh, okay, thank you."
It was yet another refusal, all rejections. Only three tiny media outlets, so small they couldn't be any smaller, were willing to collaborate with them. But the problem was, even if they bought ad space from these three, it wouldn't be of much use!
Looking at the situation now, surely someone had made some calls within the circle, otherwise they wouldn't all be giving the same response. Xu Xiaowen stood by with her face ashen. She had intended to take a good stroll around this beautiful mountain city, but now there was no need for that. If her livelihood was at stake, what was there to tour!
