Cannot create JsonNetResult to serialize json in ASP.NET MVC

Question

I am developing an ASP.NET MVC project. In my project, I am returning json data to client. So I want to rename the properties of the json. So I tried to create JsonNetResult from this link https://yobriefca.se/blog/2010/11/20/better-json-serialisation-for-asp-dot-net-mvc/. But when I create that class, Visual Studio 2013 is giving me errors dealing with Newtonsoft.Json. Error seems to be a conflict.

See my screenshot:

I have never seen this error before. I also run update-package command recently. That errors show for only Newtonsoft.Json reference. How can I fix that error?

I am doing it to change json properties

public class Item{
   [JsonProperty("name")]
   public string Name{ get; set; }
   [JsonProperty("image_url")]
   public string ImageUrl{ get; set; }
}

if you want to convert your api response to json then use bellow code — Hitesh Thakor, Jul 04 '16 at 04:54

    //To produce JSON format
    var json = config.Formatters.JsonFormatter;
    config.Formatters.Clear();
    config.Formatters.Add(json);

Your one is for web api. Mine is not api. Just normal web controller action return type is JsonResult – Wai Yan Hein Jul 04 '16 at 05:11
