Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 288: The First Battle of Independence, Fan Jin Passes the Imperial Examination
What happened on August 8th in history?

If we look at the awakening of self-consciousness from the perspective of Descartes' "I think, therefore I am" and individual independence, this day does have some meaning.

Uruguay's National Day is August 1825, 8, the day Uruguay gained independence from Brazil.

On August 1830, 8, Belgium gained independence from the Netherlands, beginning the Belgian Revolution.

On August 2005, 8, Liu Yifei became independent from the rule of Lu Kuan, a big boss in the entertainment industry who had "mentally abused and manipulated" her for three and a half years.

This domestic entertainment reform, which was triggered by emotional entanglements, has invisibly affected the fate of many people.

Xiao Liu himself, Bingbing, Liu Shishi, and even Yang Mi were all profoundly affected.

But this kind of independence is mixed with too much pain and sequelae.

The next morning, Yang Siwei, who was still on the phone with dark circles under his eyes, experienced this deeply.

Public relations work is always a game of combining blocking and loosening.

Blocking is to control the spread of the crisis, and dredging is to resolve the root causes of the crisis.

But ignoring the factor of Boss Lu, Yang Siwei couldn't stop or relieve the situation last night.

What's more important is that she didn't dare to ask Wenjie for help. After all, she had to consider that there was an injured "woman" last night.

She was afraid that Xiao Liu would get angry.

Once people are unhappy, their attitude will not be good, especially if they are bosses or small leaders.

"Xu Rong? Why was your phone turned off yesterday? Where are you and Shishi?"

"Hey?"

"Ah, yes. We had a social event yesterday... last night, and my phone ran out of battery a long time ago."

Yang Siwei habitually thought that she was just looking for an excuse to be lazy, but she didn't expect that she really had a social engagement.

With the sugar man.

"Come to the company on time at 10 o'clock. We need to have a meeting to discuss and divide the PR work."

"Ah? This!"

Xu Rong said in embarrassment: "Si Si, these photos are all over the Internet. Even if they are not very clear, this matter cannot be concealed!"

"Well, there's a pretty good crew in Shanghai. I'll bring Shishi over to take a look and give her a try."

Yang Siwei was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly remembered Yao Jia's invitation: "Shishi should not go out and take on random roles now, she still wants..."

Beep beep beep...

After a while, a text message came in: Shishi and I are on the plane. The flight attendant asked us to turn off our phones and contact them when we get back.

Yang Siwei sighed inwardly, thinking that he was still too soft-hearted.

This mediocre person should have been kicked out long ago. If it weren't for the mentor who helped her graduate early, she shouldn't even have been recruited.

It allows you to lay a solid foundation of basic skills, so that you don’t become self-righteous and feel that you are being deliberately suppressed.

Even someone like Liu Yifei, who has such conditions, is forced by a big director like Lu Kuan to do morning exercises every day, and has only appeared in two of his films so far.

Why do you think so?

The big blind man leads the little blind man, and you guys go and bravely venture into Shanghai. You will probably come back in disgrace in no time.

When the time comes, they bring a bunch of receipts to me for reimbursement, and I see that they are all in violation of regulations.

Liu Yifei actually woke up very early. She had developed a biological clock due to her habit of morning exercises. As soon as she woke up, she kept reading information about "Alien Land 2" and the Holocaust movie.

"Sissi, are you awake?"

"Well, please come in!"

Yang Siwei came in with a stack of information in his hand and first confirmed the public relations ideas with his own artists.

"Xixi, I'll just say what I want to say. If there's something that makes you unhappy, you have to face it, okay?"

Liu Yifei smiled bitterly, but still tried her best to comfort her agent: "Is there any other mainland female celebrity who has experienced more than me?"

She counted the hardships of the past three years on her fingers.

"I joined The Golden Age and couldn't act. I was excluded and isolated by the crew."

"I signed with Red Star Wu, but ended up running into a bad guy who disbanded it within a year."

"I was scolded and cried several times a day while filming Whiplash, but the key was to wipe away my tears and continue filming."

"I was a stunt double for someone else while filming 'Alien Land', and it was only when I got injured that it was my turn."

"And there's Song Zude, who lacks great virtue."

Xiao Liu brushed the hair away from his ear and looked at his agent expressionlessly. "Adding to what happened last night, what else can possibly hurt me?"

Yang Siwei thought to himself, there really is one, the kind that would make you cry when you see him.

"I thought about it and decided that we had done our best to block the necessary traffic. Now the next step is to relieve the traffic."

"Since you've said you'll respond truthfully, then we'll guide public opinion in a way that's bold in love and hate, and genuine and unpretentious."

If the target was not Lu Kuan, Yang Siwei could have worked towards being the victim of the ignorant girl who was deceived. After all, the weak can always arouse sympathy, and maybe the number of fans would increase instead of decrease.

But this person was too terrifying and special. Even if she dared, Concubine Liu Yi would not agree.

Among the three people involved in this birthday confession incident, Boss Lu had the least impact. At most, he would have to wash two more sets of clothes. He just hoped that he would not be involved in a scandal with an underage girl.

Bingbing is a fierce and powerful flower, and this kind of black and red is what she wants.

Only pure actresses like Xiao Liu suffered such a huge blow.

She is the most important link in the monetization of blog traffic created by Boss Lu. The level of traffic she bears in publicity, ringtones, Wenjie Mall, and Mytube traffic is too high.

Once this pure image is broken, the decline in traffic economy caused by the large-scale loss of fans will greatly hit her commercial value.

But there are exceptions to this kind of thing. For example, Zhou Xun dared to declare to reporters just a few years after her debut: I was born for love.

Her agent and company also worked hard to create her image as straightforward and free-spirited, with an honest and courageous attitude towards love, and she would not suppress her emotional life because of her career.

Female celebrities are also flesh and blood people, and they will also have moments of bravery to express their feelings.

For Xiao Liu now, he can only try and make efforts in public opinion in this direction.

"Also, Uncle An will ask the embassy's counselor to be interviewed and give you some romantic and brave comments to empower your actions."

"My aunt contacted the vice president of the People's Daily and used his connections in the Public Affairs Department to persuade those celebrity tabloids to stop messing around."

"For now...that's all."

Liu Yifei nodded and stopped talking. It was too difficult to get over this tragic scene. She could only continue to devote all her energy to work to divert her attention.

Once everything is done, let's go.

Going out and seeing different scenery will always make you feel better.

It is more difficult to prevent people from speaking than to prevent a river from flooding. All the efforts made by Yang Siwei can only prevent the situation from developing in the worst direction.

However, melons with this level of traffic are already as powerful as an atomic bomb on the Internet, and even the official power of Blog.com cannot suppress it unless large-scale account bans are carried out.

"Xixi, let me use your computer so I can get some materials."

Yang Siwei said hello and took away the computer from Liu Yifei's room without saying anything.

Xiao Liu watched her chubby figure walking away, and reluctantly continued his unfinished work. A trace of warmth in his heart melted the coldness.

This is because I’m afraid that I’ll read online reviews like I did last year.

Magic City, Sugar Man Headquarters.

"Welcome! Shishi, we're back to visit our old place!"

Liu Shishi felt a little embarrassed, but she was a little surprised that the vice president of Tangren would come out to greet her in person. She glanced sideways at Xu Rong.

The latter gave her a reassuring look and pushed the reluctant Liu Shishi inside.

The girl at the sugar man front desk curled her lips in disdain, saying, "She's a female Lu Bu."

It was still the familiar boss's office, and Liu Shishi was still sitting stiffly on the sofa, as if not much different from the last time she left.

"Shishi, has Xu Rong conveyed my wishes to you?"

Liu Shishi was confused: "Ah? Sister Rong said you have a play appointment with me, this..."

Xu Rong looked at Liu Shishi in surprise, thinking when did this profession become so popular that now everyone knows how to act stupid and wait for the price to rise.

If someone comes to surrender voluntarily, he is a traitor. If a sugar man goes to dig, it is called visiting the thatched cottage three times.

It’s different if you can’t say it.

Xu Rong secretly pondered the meaning of these words, and inexplicably thought of Yang Mi who went back with her yesterday. She looked like a shrewd person.

Could it be that she taught it?

"Haha, Shishi has made great progress." Cai Yinong laughed twice, then broke the meaningless window paper.

"To make a long story short, you didn't get any decent resources from Concubine Liu Yi, did you?"

Liu Shishi was stubborn: "Of course, Xixi treats me very well. I appeared in the movie "Bad Genius", which grossed over 100 million yuan. I also have a role in the second episode of her latest popular tea art video."

It seems that after searching everywhere, I can't find any more strong evidence.

Of course, in her mind, the studio hiring an acting teacher from the People's Art Theatre as a guide through Feng Yuanzheng's relationship was not a positive bonus or empowerment.

In Xu Rong's words, that is called praise but actual criticism, that is called suppression.

Cai Yinong really can't pretend anymore. I know your worth better than anyone else. You're acting like an adult here.

"I'm not going to lie to you, Master Liu."

"The route I set for you before really didn't take your feelings into consideration. It's inappropriate."

"But you have to admit that only by using the title of Concubine Liu Yi's cousin can you stand out from the crowd, right?"

Liu Shishi can't stand hearing this the most right now, especially after she had a heart-to-heart talk with her best friend Da Mimi last night.

Her face flushed and she wanted to refute immediately.

"Listen to me!"

Cai Yinong's female power as the former boss was still there. Liu Shishi turned her head to express her resistance, but she didn't dare to just walk away.

If you go any further, you will really lose your three surnames.

Cai Yinong gave her a penetrating analysis: "Last night's incident has been widely reported. Now is your best chance to come forward."

"What's with Big Liu Yifei, Little Liu Yifei, or cousins? As long as you're more popular than her, go online and see your fan count and buzz. It will tell everything!"

"What do you mean by a history book? The internet has no memory!"

Xu Rong cooperated by turning the computer on the table over to show her, and switched between multiple portals and forums, including Tianya, Blog, Maopu and other most popular online communities.

Her beautiful boss's bravery and romance last night have become a hot topic.

"Penguin Entertainment": The 18-year-old top star was rejected in public when she confessed her love, recreating the tragic story of Don Quixote!
"Xinlang Entertainment": An eighteen-year-old girl's impulsive love turned out to be a passionate disturbance.

"Bigstar": After Zhou Xun, another top young actress fell in love early. What will happen to her pure image after the fall?

"NetEase Entertainment": A certain director takes it all, recreating the grand scene of harvesting female stars in the domestic entertainment industry!

Most of the voices came from Internet portals, which are in competition with blog sites and Q&A circles. Moreover, since such explosive news does not constitute a distortion of facts, everyone is very willing to report it.

But within the forum, all kinds of dirty words and weird words were frequently mentioned, mostly secret stories such as washing machines luring underage girls and underage actresses sacrificing themselves for the sake of getting promoted.

In order to highlight the persuasiveness of the argument, he presented facts and reasoned with the voice of a front-of-house worker on the crew of "The Drummer" and "Foreign Land" and a neighbor of Liu Yifei when she lived in the United States, which made the audience very excited.

Cai Yinong coaxed her gently, "Since you're willing to come with Xu Rong to talk, it means you have intentions. You don't need to admit it, everyone knows it."

"Secondly, look at Liu Yifei's current reputation and the direction of public opinion. If her innocent image is no longer established, will she still be able to star in youth films like 'Bad Genius' in the future?"

"If that bearded Zhang Jizhong were to be cast again now, would she still be given the role of Wang Yuyan and Xiaolongnu?"

"so!"

Liu Shishi was stunned by what she said. Her eyes, which were already arrogant, now looked even more empty.

"When a whale falls, all things come to life. Liu Yifei's blog followers dropped over a million overnight, and the number will only drop faster."

"How many people are eyeing her position right now? How many people are watching to see these numbers added up to their own?"

The sugar man's female boss counted on her fingers and said, "Chengtian poached Huang Shengyi, Huayi poached Yang Mi, and Yinghuang's Tang Yan, weren't they all trained according to her path?"

"And you! Shishi! You have a unique advantage!"

Cai Yinong was afraid that this sensitive and self-deprecating little girl would be upset, so she didn't say it clearly, but everyone in the room knew what was going on.

What advantage?
She looks very similar to you.

You can be a substitute. It’s hard to say whether you are a good substitute or not, but at least you can express the grief of some young fans who stopped following Liu because he fell in love with a washing machine.

Liu Shishi felt a little sad. Could she not escape this fate in this life?

But then he thought of Cai Yinong’s misleading words.

Yes! As long as I become more popular than her in the future, there will naturally be fans who will help me write history!
She took a deep breath, as if she had made a major decision: "I have a condition."

"explain."

"I have a 200 million yuan termination fee, and Tang Ren has to pay it."

Cai Yinong looked at her calmly for a few seconds, then pointed twice with her fingers: "Shishi, when you left, I didn't receive a single cent from Liu Yifei's studio."

"You've just come back from a sinking ship, and you're still asking Sugar Man to pay for this. Isn't that a bit crazy?"

The female boss who was well-known in the industry for her vindictiveness gave her a slight setback.

"Do you think you're as beautiful as a fairy, or a bewitching enchantment? You're the talent I discovered from Beiwu, but there are hundreds and thousands of talents like you."

"You need to understand this! Your only advantage is that you look like Concubine Liu Yi!"

"Don't talk nonsense to me here!"

Cai Yinong was well versed in negotiation and knew that this girl who had learned some negotiation skills from somewhere and wanted to negotiate with him was just a fool.

If we don't break down her psychological defenses and enslave and suppress her mentally, she will be a problem even if she comes in later.

Seeing that things were not going well, Xu Rong hurriedly pulled the tearful Liu Shishi aside to persuade her, "Ms. Cai is doing this for your own good, Shishi. In the entertainment industry, everyone is in the same boat."

"Think about the one or two million followers Liu Yifei lost, wouldn't that be added to yours?"

"If you haven't seen the studio's accounts, you have no idea how much these fans can pay for her. Ringtones cost one dollar, T-shirts cost dozens, and every time she promotes Lu Kuan for movie tickets, the replies to her posts are in the thousands!"

"As long as you successfully fill in the position, won't everything be yours from now on?!"

These are the grievances that Xu Rong has accumulated for a long time.

She knew how profitable the studio was. Even though she didn't have access to the core accounts, she could calculate how much money the studio made by looking at the number of downloads, as a ringtone cost 1-2 yuan.

It’s no exaggeration to say that it’s an astronomical figure!
But where's the money? Where's the studio bonus?
You, Yang Siwei and Liu Yifei, just have to hold on to your wallets so tightly, right?

Not leaving any food for the people below?

Yang Siwei: All the money has been given to the mastermind behind the domestic entertainment industry. If you have the guts, go and ask for it back yourself.

Cai Yinong gave Xu Rong a wink and left on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Xu Rong, who was already obsessed with ghosts and money, secretly gave advice to Liu Shishi.

"Shishi, I think you can talk to Concubine Liu Yi directly. She is actually a very soft-hearted person."

"Last month, the studio's driver falsely reported fuel tickets. An investigation revealed a shortfall of over 20,000 yuan. Yang Siwei was about to fire him, but Liu Yifei persuaded him not to."

Liu Shishi looked up at her, not very willing to go back and beg pitifully in front of her.

Xu Rong was almost driven crazy by this dilatory girl from Beijing Dance Academy, and she slammed the table hard!
"Shishi, just tell me if you want to leave!"

"think..."

"Okay, I'll give you two options. You don't have to pay for it, and you can also join the sugar man. Just like what Mr. Cai said, start attracting fans from "Xian San" and fill the position of Concubine Liu Yi!"

Liu Shishi looked up and stared at her, feeling that Xu Rong and Yang Mi were both noble people in her life. She nodded to her agent with tears in her eyes.

"The first one is to try to gain sympathy and ask for forgiveness with kind words, and tell her how helpless and sad it is to have this reputation. Yang Siwei will definitely disagree, but Concubine Liu Yi is different. She's soft-hearted."

You know how to deceive a gentleman with tricks.

"The second one is a little more troublesome."

Xu Rong sighed deeply and lowered her voice: "I have the video of the accident last night, the whole process."

"what?"

Liu Shishi was shocked: "Why are you recording this?"

She immediately covered her mouth, thought of something, and looked up and down at Xu Rong in surprise.

"We won't let you go, we'll video chat you online. It's that simple. That's our leverage."

"Yang Siwei's 24-hour PR campaign was incredible. Now, basically, there's a picture online, and everyone can make up stories, making it easy to dispel rumors."

"If those blurry images are hand grenades, then this video is an atomic bomb."

"Her fans can take a good look at how their dream girl rushes to confess her love, only to end up with nothing."

Liu Shishi is not that stupid. If things really come to this, even if Yang Siwei and Liu Yifei can't catch her, what can they do? But...

What about the young director who mistook himself for Liu Yifei at first sight?
What is his attitude and position now?
Xu Rong was clear-headed and dispelled her concerns step by step. "Why don't you just say a friend has the video? Don't threaten her face, that would be too hurtful."

"Second, don't worry about others, especially the big boss. He won't care."

Liu Shishi asked anxiously, "Why?"

"Why? Did he do anything when someone called him a washing machine? He's been linked to so many female celebrities every day, and Fan Bingbing has been like that, but did he do anything?"

"wrong!"

Liu Shishi recalled the experience of following Xiao Liu to Shanghai to promote "Initial D". His bodyguards treated Liu Yifei like the boss's wife.

Xu Rong just waved her hand and sneered when she heard her say that: "Silly girl! You are wrong!"

"Who is he? The owner of the largest entertainment company in mainland China. He only looks at two things when evaluating actors: whether their acting skills are good enough to be in his show, and whether they can make him money."

"Maybe he and Concubine Liu Yi had a good relationship before, but what about now?"

"The image of a young actress who debuted with a pure and innocent image has collapsed. Not only will the box office appeal of youth films decline, but the number of fans has also plummeted."

"When Liu Yifei falls to the point where she can no longer provide him with traffic value and loses her commercial value, will he still care about her life or death?"

Liu Shishi was indeed fooled by Xu Rong and Cai Yinong for a few days, but she did have contact with Lu Kuan several times along with Liu Yifei.

While eating hot pot, Boss Lu received a call from the Olympic Committee, and Liu Yifei picked up some meat for him. At the Magic City Racetrack, Lu Kuan stood up for her and taught the Hong Kong pervert a lesson.

This isn't an ordinary relationship, is it?

However, Xu Rong's words did make her wonder, "If you really have feelings for her, why didn't you agree to her right away? Tell me."

The office door was suddenly pushed open, and Sister Cai came back leisurely.

"Huayi just urged us again. Teng Huatao told us that we must finalize the cast before next week. Otherwise, even if Tangren holds shares, it will be difficult to operate."

"Shishi, you have to think it over carefully. I won't force you."

Cai Yinong leaned back in her chair and smiled at the troubled Liu Shishi: "Just like when you left, did I make things difficult for you? It seems not."

Liu Shishi mustered up her courage and finally tore off her already exposed mask. She whispered, "Are you sure that Xixi... Concubine Liu Yi has no chance anymore?"

"Of course not! But there is a high probability!"

Cai Yinong recounted the events like the back of her hand: "In 2000, Mao Ning was injured in an assassination attempt, had an affair with a male friend, and his career never recovered."

"Last year, CCTV host Zhao Zhongxiang was publicly exposed by Rao Ying for having an extramarital affair and was also in arrears with medical examination fees. He has not been abroad for a long time now."

"Internationally, Michael Jackson won his child molestation lawsuit last year, but so what? Now his concerts are being boycotted."

She paused, pondered for two seconds, and said, "Based on the current situation, I think she will be seriously injured at least."

"I...I want to ask my friends for their opinions."

Liu Shishi stood up hesitantly, and after hearing Cai Yinong's "please go ahead", she went to the corridor and called her best friend.

"Hello? It's me, Mimi..."

A single stone caused a thousand ripples, because it was not just Tangren who paid close attention to the developments of the situation on all sides of the "825 Yifei Incident".

For example, Yao Jia also came to the birthday party to congratulate.

She had been working in the old director's office for a while.

"Director, after you finish approving the documents, I have something to report to you."

Ouyang Changqing knew what she wanted to say, and thought to himself that this girl was still not experienced enough and was not as talented as Long Danni in doing things.

Thinking that times will change at the slightest sign of trouble is not called flexibility, it is called a lack of strategic determination!

"What do you think?"

"Liu..."

"Go ahead with the plan and ask her studio if they're willing to cooperate."

Ouyang Changqing interrupted his subordinate's report without much patience, which was rare in his career.

Yao Jia was stunned for a moment, realizing that the old director must have misunderstood.

"Leader, I mean we should upgrade our charcoal that helps us in times of need!"

"Before, we were collaborating and sending ordinary pine charcoal. But now I think we can go even bigger! Send fruit charcoal!"

Ouyang Changqing laughed heartily and put the cap back on his pen: "Okay, fruit charcoal is good."

"It's not only warm, but also has a fruity aroma that's refreshing!"

"Xiao Yao, you've improved."

The old director was overjoyed and felt that this little girl was worthy of his promotion and cultivation along the way.

"Tell me what you think."

Yao Jia, feeling somewhat guilty, picked up the thermos on the ground and refilled it for her old leader: "Actually, I was hesitant at first."

"It's just like what people have been saying online. Liu Yifei is really an atypical Chinese entertainment actress. Normal female celebrities wouldn't do such a thing."

"You have no idea. I was stunned when I saw it last night."

"After I came back, I thought about it carefully. The key to this matter is not her."

Ouyang Changqing's eyes lit up: "Who is it?"

"The Little Overlord of Jiangdong you mentioned!"

"Hahaha! They call him the Little Overlord of Jiangdong, but that's because he's from near Nanjing. In fact, he's more like Liu Bang, who came from Xuzhou in northern Jiangsu."

"He has vision, means, and he will do anything to achieve his goal!"

The old director looked at his capable subordinate with certainty and said, "Concubine Liu Yi has suffered a temporary setback. Without external intervention, there is indeed a risk of her never recovering."

"But there's an external force watching from the sidelines. Whether or not to intervene is another matter, but the relationship between them isn't that simple."

Yao Jia covered her mouth and laughed, "Leader, this is the first time I've seen you gossip about relationships between men and women in this circle."

"Oh no! I'm old, how can I be curious about this? The key is that this person doesn't take the usual path. If you don't infer his actions from this, you won't be able to grasp the pulse!"

Yao Jia nodded. "Actually, what made me change my mind was that the scene was already in chaos. Yang Siwei and the reporters were almost getting into a fight, and Lu Kuan was still talking to Liu Yifei on stage."

"I couldn't get close enough to hear what they were saying, but that scene was worth pondering."

Ouyang Changqing gossiped, "What do you mean?"

"The photo shows Lu Kuan and Fan Bingbing. Concubine Liu Yi is clearly questioning him."

"If there wasn't a tacit understanding between the two, how could Concubine Liu Yi have the right to demand an explanation from him? And how could Lu Kuan have the patience to answer her?"

"The fact that they were able to have that ten-second conversation shows that there is an emotional understanding between them in this relationship."

"Although this emotional tacit understanding may be temporarily hidden underwater, it is very likely to become the biggest variable behind the current confusing situation!"

Ouyang Changqing sipped his tea, narrowed his eyes and teased his old subordinate: "That's enough, Yao Jia, it's enough for you to be a guest on our station's "True Love"."

"Oh! Just like you said, Lu Kuan is a cunning person. If we don't find a clue to lock him down, we won't be able to see his movements clearly."

"Liu Yifei is a clue, including Zhang Nara a few months ago. If you trace it back to the source, it is still inseparable from this little girl."

In other words, Yao Jia didn't know the truth. Travel Satellite TV was originally planning to kill Hunan TV. If Zhou Jun hadn't caused trouble and was looking for Zhuang Xu, Hunan TV's "Super Girl" might have been stillborn.

"Okay, go ahead and do it. Since you've decided to help someone in need, don't be shy about it."

"Just state your identity and stance directly, then invite her to a show. For example, if Bad Genius broke 100 million at the box office, invite the entire crew to come to the show."

Yao Jia nodded in agreement, pondering the leader's intentions in her heart.

The crew of "Bad Genius" is almost all artists from the entertainment industry. Is this sending a signal again?

She immediately thought of the hot investment in "Super Girl" and the temporary lukewarm popularity of "The Voice of China", and thought that this must be the old director's preparation for a rainy day.

Are you worried that some people will turn against you if you can't handle it? Give them a candied date first?

Yao Jia was planning to work overtime today, so she called Yang Siwei to reaffirm their commitment to the partnership and then asked the official Weibo account to prepare promotional materials. It seemed like she had no choice, right?

There is only one Liu Shishi in Liu Yifei's studio, so please draft the blog post first.

As the old director said, once you have decided to do something, do it openly. Being hesitant will only make people annoyed.
-
At the Beijing Capital Airport, the worried Liu Shishi and the traitor's agent Xu Rong just got off the plane.

"Shishi, why don't you go back to the studio? Yang Siwei has been on the phone all morning."

"Um... can it be tomorrow? I'm really confused right now."

Liu Shishi flew all the way and thought about it all the way. Although she confirmed her decision on the phone with her best friend, the thought of facing Yang Siwei and Liu Yifei on her own...

The cell phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated violently. Liu Shishi glanced at the caller and her hands were shaking so much that she almost dropped the phone.

I knew there was no way to hide, and I would be hit whether I stuck my head out or not.

"Xixi, I just got off the plane."

Xiao Liu was "confined" at home for a day. Her parents and aunt Yang Siwei cut off all her external internet access, for fear that the outside world's uproar would cause her to be hurt again.

Aftershocks can be much more deadly than major earthquakes.

"Come to my house, please? I have something to tell you."

"Huh? Oh, sure! I'll be there right now."

Xu Rong waited for her to hang up with an indifferent expression. She put her arm around Liu Shishi's shoulders and encouraged her: "Come on, Shishi! After tonight, it will be your rebirth!"

"Remember what President Cai said in the office? When a whale falls, all things come to life."

"Now, when a concubine falls, all things come to life. Think about the dinner party that night, with so many celebrities, business leaders, and a budget of millions. Wouldn't you want to dress like a princess?"

The devil whispered in her ear, and Liu Shishi felt both shy and eager. She lowered her head and looked at her steady steps.

I think I'm on the right track, one step at a time, two steps at a time...

"Hey! Shishi!"

Xu Rong looked at her speechlessly.

"what?"

"Wrong way! This way!"

Xu Rong was speechless and cursed Yang Siwei in her heart again.

At the residence of Concubine Liu Yi in Changping, a little girl was drawing her eyebrows and eyes in the bathroom, trying to cover up her red and swollen eyes.

She just asked for her computer back on the pretext of looking up some information.

Then I logged into my blog.

Some people cursed her, unfollowed her, and criticized her for being self-indulgent, while others said she had no shame.

It’s not the female fans of the washing machine, they are all her true fans who turned from love to hate.

But Xiao Liu didn't cry because of these things. Whether he was scolded or praised, he would just forget about it.

No matter how harsh the insults are, can they be as harsh as the unprecedented wave of negative news last year?

Her threshold to being attacked by critics is quite high, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.

Just like last night when she was writing in her diary, she was so excited that she wanted to delete the photos from her blog, just like countless other heartbroken female college students in later generations...

As a result, I inexplicably went through all 81 difficulties again from the beginning, and they were all love difficulties.

Let's delete this one! No, although he is in this one, I just joined the crew, so it still has some commemorative value.

I should delete this one! But this is my first film wrap, how can I bear to erase it?

This photo must be deleted. I am not in it. Only that bastard is looking at the camera with a smile.

Can. . .

This was the day when "Alien Land" broke the box office record in Chinese film history!

That day, I took a piece of white paper and wrote "Go Chinese movies & Go "Foreign Land"", which ended up setting off a wave of enthusiasm in the entire domestic entertainment industry, and everyone worked together to bring "Titanic" down.

Forget it, just move on. Out of sight, out of mind.

Over and over again, Xiao Liu recalled his three years of youth as if watching a movie.

When she lowered her head again, another handful of sad hot tears fell on her smooth thighs.

The photo was not deleted.

Go to your washing machine!

In the bathroom, Xiao Liu looked at herself in the mirror without any makeup. She picked up the eye cream that she had hardly used and applied it around her eyes, trying to cover her red and swollen eye sockets.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Xixi, the people are here."

"Okay, here we come."

Knowing that it was Liu Shishi and Xu Rong who came, she didn't want to make a fuss since they were her family, so she wiped her face and pushed the door open to leave.

Liu Shishi returned to her ostrich state, organizing her words in her mind. Looking at Liu Yifei who was walking towards her gracefully, she seemed to be using all her courage and wisdom in her life.

Well, as Director Lu said, actors must have style, actors are artists, actors are warriors...

"Sit? Why are you standing?"

She was startled by Liu Yifei's casual polite remark. She looked at Xu Rong silently and sat down opposite her somewhat stiffly.

She squinted her eyes and glanced around. Well, Yang Siwei was not there, which was a good thing.

"I have a..."

"Sissi!"

Liu Shishi was quietly kicked by Xu Rong under the table, and the uncontrolled volume scared Liu Yifei.

Xiao Liu was puzzled: "Hmm? Then you go first."

Liu Shishi took a deep breath and looked at the red and swollen eyes of Liu Yifei opposite her, and inexplicably felt more confident.

"Sissi, I...I want to leave the studio."

After waiting for a long time without receiving a response, Liu Shishi mustered up the courage to look at the girl opposite her and bravely defended herself:
"I'm sorry, I just can't stand being called Little Liu Yifei everywhere I go. It hurts me so much."

"Xixi, I'm so sorry. I didn't choose this time to confront you. I just can't go on any further..."

Perhaps Liu Shishi was really sad, or perhaps she was thinking about her best friend Da Mimi's advice, so she started to play the emotional card unscrupulously.

Tears streamed from her two eyes that were filled with indifference, and her performance skills became more refined.

At least from this point of view, the acting teacher the studio found for itself cannot be said to be useless.

Xu Rong swallowed and looked at Xiao Liu's expressionless face, feeling inexplicably scared.

If someone has a face that is always solemn and stern, people who often come into contact with him or her will not be too concerned about his or her appearance.

But Concubine Liu Yi's daily cheerful and naive behavior easily makes people imagine things.

But you are just an actor, so what? You are not a top power holder in the domestic entertainment industry like Lu Kuan.

If Su Chang or Yang Siwei were there at this time, looking at Liu Yifei's silent expression, they should be able to vaguely spot the shadow of that man.

Xiao Liu was a little sad. She wanted to tell Liu Shishi the good news that she had won the position of the heroine in the base camp for her.

The value of this position is self-evident, especially for a pure amateur like Liu Shishi.

In 2005, "Happy Camp" had a national audience rating of 1.759% and a market share of 3.948%, ranking among the top three in the same period.

It has unparalleled value in promoting the development of the star economy and driving the development of surrounding industries such as program production, advertising agency, and artist management.

If you, Liu Shishi, take and hold the position of female host, it means that you will have top three exposure in the television field every weekend, sometimes even first place.

But before she could say anything, she received a defection from within the studio.

The blade was facing inward, which made the girl, who had been very sensitive these past few days, unable to accept it for a while.

Why does she always treat herself like this when she treats everyone with the utmost sincerity and kindness?
At the beginning, Liu Shishi was accidentally injured by me and was unable to extricate herself from the pain of "Little Liu Yifei". It was I who took her to see Lao Xia for acupuncture and tried my best to terminate her contract.

Even though her time in the studio didn't bring her many opportunities except for occasional guest appearances, is this little bit of hardship and loneliness so unbearable to you?

Don Quixote Fei, who was sitting opposite Liu Shishi and Xu Rong, suddenly felt his heart begin to collapse again, and his mood, which had just been sorted out with great difficulty, was messed up again.

The two people sitting across the table looked at each other, and seeing Liu Yifei's speechless look, they both felt that something was going to happen.

Yes, an eighteen-year-old girl usually doesn’t care about worldly affairs.

If Yang Siwei is not here, won’t he be under the control of the two of us?
Since you can bully them, then bully them to death! That's the reality of the entertainment industry!

In Liu Yifei's first "Whiplash" movie, her main role was a breakup scene with the male lead who decided to devote himself to jazz drums.

It was a long scene that required over-the-shoulder and close-up shots.

During this performance, Boss Lu taught the fledgling Liu Yifei some shortcuts in her performance.

For example: How to play a confident and powerful person?
It’s very simple, just slow down your speech and use certain body movements.

"Xiao Liu, do you think now is a good time to ask me to leave?"

Oh my god! Xiao Liu is also calling someone else Xiao Liu!

Xiao Liu stretched his hands to the left and right, pressed his palms on the table, raised his head slightly, relaxed his shoulders and let them sink naturally.

From a psychological point of view, speaking slowly will give the other person a sense of mystery that makes it difficult to read your inner thoughts.

Slowing down your speaking speed and emphasizing your tone can more effectively convey emotions and attitudes, and make your words more weighty.

Such expansive and open body movements clearly tell the two people on the opposite side of the negotiator that my boss Liu is not someone to be trifled with!

Like a little tigress, Liu Yifei brought the experiential performance technique to the extreme at this moment.

She has been practicing the role of this stern and cunning businessman for three and a half years.

There was no need to deliberately imitate or master it. The figure that had hurt her so deeply but that she still couldn't get rid of the enchantment of, descended naturally.

Liu Shishi and Xu Rong looked at each other secretly. For some reason, Liu Yifei, who seemed weak and gullible just now, suddenly became stiff.

Tears welled up in Liu Shishi's eyes: "Xixi, please let me go this time, otherwise I really have no way to survive."

"I've worked so hard dancing for almost 10 years. This is really my best chance. Otherwise... wuwuwu..."

Xu Rong thought to herself that this was not good. He had already exposed his next customer before the negotiation was even concluded. Wasn't he just waiting for someone to take advantage of him?
Xiao Liu raised his eyebrows: "What opportunity? Tell me about it. If it's really good, and we're friends, I won't stop you."

"No! No! Shishi is talking nonsense. We just want to go back to Beijing Dance Academy to finish this year and then think about these things slowly."

"Oh, then go away. I don't agree."

"Xixi, why are you like this!" Liu Shishi thought she was really going to leave, and hurriedly stood up.

Seeing that things were not going well, Xu Rong could only add in a sinister tone, "Princess Yi, everyone is helping you with your PR now."

"As far as I know, there are still a lot of videos streaming out there. Can we resolve this as soon as possible so we can continue to provide you with..."

However, this was just what she thought was a trump card. Little did she know that according to Concubine Liu Yi's own instructions, the public opinion guidance based on facts was not afraid of their videos at all.

She stood up, holding onto the table, and looked down at Liu Shishi and Xu Rong, who were wiping their tears. "Don't try this on me. Why don't you give it a try?"

"I know you don't want to go down with this shabby ship of mine, but as a human being, there should be some basic moral principles, right?"

"Get out now!"

"I'm telling you, if you want to leave, either pay me two million and slap it on the table in front of me! Or wait until you're 200 and we can talk again!"

The black-hearted Yang Siwei signed an 8-year contract with her, so she can't come out until she is 26 and can just retire.

"Sugar man! It's a sugar man!" Liu Shishi blurted out, making Xu Rong so angry that she cursed in her heart again.

Xiao Liu narrowed his eyes and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

So you think I'm the Island of Elba, right?
Don’t you see that you are Napoleon?

There is nothing wrong with these words coming from Boss Lu.

But Xiao Liu's inner thoughts seemed quite similar to those of a certain machine.

Perhaps she herself did not even realize that her attitude in this kind of business communication had unknowingly become highly similar to that of someone else.

"Oh, okay, congratulations."

Concubine Liu Yi, who was about to leave, sat down leisurely, feeling regretful in her heart about her short-sightedness.

Even if it was a few minutes later, after I finished talking about the things about Hunan TV and Kuaiben, it wouldn't have come to this point of tears.

Concubine Liu Yi felt a little bit reluctant when she saw her deathly pale face. If she had not proposed to leave at this point in time, she really couldn't say what big mistake she had made.

This past year or so did not bring her many opportunities, because she was just a hard-working working girl this year!

Work for love.

Looking at Liu Shishi's eye sockets which were almost as swollen as his own, Boss Liu sighed inwardly.

No matter how subtle she was, she couldn't be as cruel as a washing machine.

The reborn person has a superior perspective on the world, and feels that everything is just a straw dog.

Besides, she herself was not a person with this kind of personality. She was just pushed forward step by step and learned these survival rules under the pressure of wind, frost, swords and knives.

To be honest, she wanted to just let Liu Shishi go. It was really annoying to see her crying here.

She hasn't sorted out her own affairs yet, so how can she have the time to take care of her?

But thinking about setting up systems and rules for the studio, Yang Siwei spent the whole day out doing public relations and running around.

Concubine Liu Yi couldn't bear to let her soft heart erase her rules.

Just like when she was in Lu Kuan’s office and saw his approval to cancel the screening of "Bullfighting".

Once a company sets the rules, it must abide by them.

If you always show favoritism and leniency, how can the people below you work with you?
Xiao Liu hardened his heart: "Just follow the rules, there's nothing to say."

"Liu Yifei! Do you really want to kill me?"

Liu Shishi broke down emotionally, walked around the table and grabbed the little girl's arm, and in her excitement she used some force.

Xiao Liu looked at her speechlessly.

Don't think that you are from Beijing Dance Academy. Even if you are from Beijing Sport University, I can beat ten people like you.

She effortlessly shook off Liu Shishi's entanglement, not wanting to waste any more time talking to people like her and Xu Rong: "You should talk to Siwei."

"Talk to me, this is my attitude."

"Talk to Siwei, you never know if she'll let you go."

Concubine Liu Yi said this with a cold expression and turned away, which dealt a fatal blow to Liu Shishi, who was on the verge of emotional collapse.

"Okay! Okay! I promise! Isn't it okay if I promise?"

Liu Shishi cried so hard that she collapsed to the ground. Xu Rong had no choice but to reach out to support her, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It's not that I feel sorry for her.

Compared with Liu Yifei, who has grown from a small-time actress to a leading lady, the gap is too big.

Xu Rong couldn't help but think of the young director that Yang Siwei always mentioned in studio meetings.

He spoke very clearly about how decisive and ruthless he was, and how he never hesitated when it came time to act. He required the studio's public relations team to learn and implement this spirit.

At that time, she didn't care much about what her junior from Communication University of China said.

But after seeing the fight between these two young actresses of similar age, Xu Rong realized that what Yang Siwei said was true.

Standing on the terrace on the second floor of the villa, Xiao Liu watched the crying Liu Shishi and Xu Rong who was supporting her leave.

In fact, she didn't feel very good either.

The confrontation and competition between people is a fusion and game of aura.

Liu Shishi's tears and helpless cries, and perhaps the silent curses in her heart, all these negative emotions will affect Xiao Liu's mood.

Even if she was the big winner.

Looking at the signed termination agreement in her hand, Liu Yifei sighed silently.

I really don't know how he could be so happy with such a thing, day after day for so many years.

With the help of Xu Rong, Liu Shishi also found another way. Based on the plan they had previously discussed, she signed a contract with the general manager of the Beiping Sugar Man branch, which was almost a contract of selling herself.

10 years, 10%.

As a consideration, Tangren will pay a termination fee of 200 million, which will of course be deducted from her film salary and business.

After all, she has 200 million fans, and with Liu Yifei's traffic monetization method as an example, I think she can still do something.

The female student from Beijing Dance Academy returned home in a daze, and walked in while greeting the uncles and uncles on the street with a bitter face.

The phone in my pocket vibrated. It was Mimi calling.

The true nature of pine and cypress is revealed in winter, and true friendship is revealed in times of adversity. Don’t friends and besties just want a little warmth in their daily lives?
She sat by the fitness equipment in the community, watching the children running around, and answered the phone: "Mimi."

"Congratulations! Shishi! You finally achieved your wish!"

"Ah? You know?"

Liu Shishi said bitterly: "It's not easy. I didn't know she was so amazing."

"It's amazing that they actually got you the hosting position on Happy Camp! Oh my god! I envy you, sister!"

"Master Liu, are you going to protect me from now on? Tell your leaders about me and invite me if you have the chance!"

"what?"

Liu Shishi was confused when she heard this. What did this have to do with anything?

"Mimi, what's Happy Camp? What do you mean by praising me? I just terminated my contract."

"you..."

On the other end of the line, Director Lu, who was once praised as the best actor trainer, stopped commenting on Yang Mi with a sharp voice, and her voice sounded even sharper.

She seemed to realize that something was wrong and didn't dare to brag anymore: "Shishi, go back and check the blog, the official blog of Hunan and Taiwan."

"I'm going to hang up first. We'll talk later."

Liu Shishi was completely confused by her, but she would never have thought that "Happy Camp" had anything to do with her?
She suddenly felt her heart pounding, and a slightly vague logical thread took shape in her underdeveloped mind, and then she strode home in big strides.

But we have almost forgotten the key to staying beautiful, which is to keep our heads up, chests out and necks straight when walking.

"Oh! My daughter is back!"

"His dad! Come out quickly, it's a great event!"

Dad Liu came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and smiling, a spatula in hand. "Don't say anything, go wash your hands and get ready for dinner. Today is a good celebration."

"My dear, Daddy just fried some sauce today, it smells so good! I also have your favorite Tianfuhao braised pork elbow and spicy tofu!"

Aunt Liu looked at her dazed daughter and didn't seem to mind: "Why are you standing there? Your dad is so happy now that he knows you're going to be the host of Happy Camp!"

"I was saying that Xiao Liu is a very honest person. Even after he got into this kind of trouble, he still didn't forget to give you so many clues."

"Hey, dad, shouldn't we go visit him when we have time to show our appreciation?"

Father Liu poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Of course. People must be grateful. This is something our daughter should follow!"

Before the parents, who wanted their daughter to become a successful person, noticed, Liu Shishi, who didn't follow them much, had rushed into the room and turned on the computer!

The words of Yang Mi and her parents continued to provide clues to her speculation, and an extremely terrifying reality was presented to her in almost all aspects.

With fear in her heart, Liu Shishi opened the blog with trembling hands.

Hunan and Taiwan, top announcement.

[Our station announces: We have officially reached a contract hosting agreement with Liu Shishi, an artist from Liu Yifei's studio. Shishi will be appearing on "Happy Camp" every weekend. Stay tuned!]

Sent time: twenty minutes ago.

Liu Shishi refreshed the interface and leaned her entire face onto the computer screen.

She moved closer, reading each word one by one, and suddenly discovered that Xiangtai had issued a new announcement.

[Our station: Due to a miscommunication, our host appointment announcement has been invalidated and deleted. We are very sorry!]

shock!
The senior girl from Beijing Dance Academy was heartbroken. Even though her reaction speed was slow, she figured out the cause and effect in an instant!
"what!!!!"

"what!!!!"

She frantically pulled the candy man's contract out of her bag and tore it apart with all her might and fury! She threw it everywhere!
His whole face was squeezed together in a ferocious manner, and he almost bit his silver teeth to pieces!
When Mr. and Mrs. Liu heard the noise, they hurried in and were stunned for a moment as they watched their daughter dancing like a fairy scattering flowers.

"Her father, what's wrong with my daughter?"

The man holding the spatula scratched his head in confusion. "Should he be happy? It's such a great thing."

"How can I tear something up happily?"

"Um..."

Dad Liu pondered for two seconds and suddenly slapped his thigh!
"Oh no! Fan Jin passed the imperial examination!"

At the same time, in Changping, at the residence of Concubine Liu Yi.

"Sure! We've finally settled this matter."

"It's very simple, and very boring."

Xiao Liu was munching on an apple listlessly. He had just chatted about the battle situation with Yang Siwei, who had been doing public relations all day.

Yang Siwei was somewhat overjoyed, but she was also surprised to hear that the traitor had rebelled.

After hearing the result of Concubine Liu Yi's handling, he couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

This time she finally showed no mercy. Last time, she had let the driver who embezzled the gas card go.

At this point, Yang Siwei really hopes that Xiao Liu can get as close to Boss Lu as possible.

The artists who really get along well with her are actually the Bingbing type, who dare to fight and rush, kill decisively, and never show mercy.

Xiao Liu is innocent and kind, and is easily bullied, but today she has been impressed by others.

Yang Siwei was just laughing foolishly when he suddenly received a call from Yao Jia.

"Ah? Oh! This... okay, thank you Director Yao, goodbye."

She looked at Concubine Liu Yi, who was chewing an apple in a gentle manner, with a puzzled look on her face, and couldn't help but ask, "Xixi."

"what?"

"Yao Jia from Hunan TV called... and said they sent the wrong announcement."

"Oh, yes, they sent it to the wrong person."

Concubine Liu Yi threw the fruit core into the wastebasket with a nonchalant expression: "I had forgotten to tell them. Yao Jia thought that Liu Shishi was the chosen one, so she issued an announcement."

"I immediately called her and asked her to withdraw the article."

Yang Siwei is not a stupid person. The loophole in his words is too big, almost as big as a sieve.

But seeing that the little girl in front of her was trying to cover up her mistake, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. It was pointless.

You traitor, no matter how much trouble you cause, it's never too much.

But what if Concubine Liu Yi deliberately used this incident as an excuse to make Liu Shishi taste the bitter fruit?

This method seems familiar.

"Okay, I won't chat with you anymore. I'm going back to my room to look at some information."

Little Liu returned to her room gracefully and sat down at the desk.

She opened the laptop that she had hastily closed earlier, and the interface was still on Liu Shishi's blog that she had accidentally seen.

In the blog, Liu Shishi liked a blog post for some unknown reason.

[My opinion of a certain unnamed scumbag director! Listing the ten crimes that make him unworthy of his position!]

Liu Yifei closed the interface without being bothered, took out the script of "Alien Land 2" and continued doing her homework.

Humph! Too much talk.

I can scold you, can you scold me too?

　I'm incredibly busy, so I might update less frequently these days. Please forgive me!
　　In addition, I really don’t have time to respond to everyone’s feedback one by one.

　　I can only say that those who can type in replies are all book lovers and friends who support the author, and I am very grateful to them.

　　Maybe some of the author's writing does not satisfy everyone, but his attitude has never changed. He must be worthy of the payment made by book lovers.

　　The posts attacking and insulting each other in individual chapters and discussions are too unsightly, so the administrators have deleted them. Anyone who insults others will be banned from posting in the future, including the leader.

　　All the answers are in the text. If you still have questions, you will understand after reading the rest of the article. Don’t be too impatient.

　　Xiao Liuzi almost had to undergo a caesarean section (laughs).

　　In any case, thank you very much, thank you brothers for your support!
