Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s

Dong Peiyu briefly explained the inside story: "Taking advantage of Xia Lu's deep feelings for him and her lack of vigilance, Zhang Zhengjie tricked her into signing a contract for a movie, which was an adult film. Xia Lu was naturally unwilling to make such a film, but she signed the contract in black and white, and the film company boss would not let her off the hook. He threatened to break her legs in the street if she did not make the film."

At this point, Hu Xiaoxiao immediately understood Xia Lu's situation at the time.

A few years ago, there was a female star who was also tricked into signing a contract for an adult film. After realizing she had been deceived, she naturally refused to act in the film and refused to fulfill the contract. As a result, her leg was broken in the street.

In broad daylight, his leg was brutally broken.

The matter wasn't over yet. After the actress recovered from her leg and was discharged from the hospital, she was threatened again, with an exorbitant penalty for breach of contract. Left with no other choice, the actress eventually filmed the movie, and afterwards left the film industry, disappearing from public view.

Dong Peiyu said, "Xia Lu was luckier than others because Xiu Ken, the general manager of Ji's Films, helped her negotiate with the film company's boss and provided a lot of resources, which allowed Xia Lu to terminate that contract. When Ji Sheng found out about this later, he scolded Xiu. If Xiu hadn't followed Ji Sheng for so many years, he would have lost his job."

"Xia Lu was deceived by the man she loved and couldn't bear the blow, so she miscarried. Only then did she realize she was pregnant. Meanwhile, Zhang Zhengjie used the resources he had lost to make a deal with his boss, successfully leaving his original company and jumping ship to his current company, Juxiang. After that, his career was smooth sailing."

Xia Lu suffered a complete defeat. Already struggling in the film industry, this incident nearly ruined Xiu's life. Emotionally distraught and weakened by the miscarriage, she took almost a year to recover. After this ordeal, she was too ashamed to return to Ji's Films, and other film companies were wary of being scammed. If it happened again, even Xiu's abilities wouldn't be able to save her.

Later, with no other option, and with Xiu's help, he returned to the TV station.

Although Xia Lu has not regained her former status as a top actress at the TV station, the ratings of the dramas she has filmed are quite good. In addition, she is hardworking, dedicated, and has some connections, so she is doing quite well at the TV station. She even won an award this year.

Hu Xiaoxiao gripped the steering wheel so tightly she almost snapped it in two. "Doesn't Zhang Zhengjie get any retribution at all?"

He betrayed even his girlfriend who loved him deeply, and he even killed his own child. How is such a scumbag now living a life of ease?

Dong Peiyu said, "General Manager Qu of Juxiang also knows about this, but these things are not important to General Manager Qu. What is important is that it can help him make money."

Compared to Mr. Qu of Giant Elephant Cinema, Zhang Zhengjie is a relatively good person, considering the things he did in the past.

Jiang Muyang listened from the side and exclaimed in amazement. The gossip in the Hong Kong film industry was even more explosive than he had ever heard before.

His eyes darted around. Sister Xiao was so angry, and Sister Dong was so annoying, so they probably wouldn't sign Zhang Zhengjie, right?

He chimed in, still worried, "This guy is really awful, he's the worst kind of scum! Sister Xiao, you have to be careful. He just tried to get you to sign him and pay the penalty for breach of contract! If you really sign him to Shengshi, our company's beautiful and innocent female artists will be easily fooled. They might even be sold out without even knowing it."

Hu Xiaoxiao gripped the steering wheel without speaking, her expression unreadable, but those who knew her well could tell from her slightly furrowed brows that she was not in a good mood.

The car stopped in the open space in front of the old station. Everyone else from Shengshi Entertainment had arrived, and the artists got out of the company van.

After Huang Yuliang got out of the car, he discussed with Nie Jinlong how to assess the artists later.

Hu Xiaoxiao walked over and stood next to Huang Yuliang. After Nie Jinlong finished speaking and went to arrange the assessment, she said to Huang Yuliang, "If Zhang Zhengjie comes to you and wants to sign with Shengshi, don't agree."

Huang Yuliang was wearing a white shirt, which was ironed neatly, and straight black trousers, which showed off his perfect body proportions.

Hearing Hu Xiaoxiao's words, he shifted his gaze behind his glasses to her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Hu Xiaoxiao was either angered by Zhang Zhengjie or by the lack of morality in this industry. "From now on, when the company hires people, we must pay attention to their character. Those with moral problems should never be hired."

Huang Yuliang nodded, but there was still confusion in his eyes. He noticed that Hu Xiaoxiao seemed angry, but he didn't know why she was angry.

He had one hand in his pocket, the other hand adjusting his glasses, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Seeing Jiang Muyang get out of Hu Xiaoxiao's car with a secret look of delight on his face, he beckoned Jiang Muyang over. "What just happened?"

Jiang Muyang is considered tall in the film industry, but standing next to Huang Yuliang, he appears slightly shorter.

"What just happened is quite a big deal. That Zhang Zhengjie tried to scam our Sister Xiao." Jiang Muyang told Huang Yuliang the gossip about Zhang Zhengjie that he had just heard without holding back, and added a little fuel to the fire when he talked about Zhang Zhengjie coming to see Hu Xiaoxiao.

"Mr. Huang, you don't know that Zhang Zhengjie thinks he's handsome and is trying to seduce our Sister Xiao. His expression and smile are exactly the same as when he's in those porn movies..."

Huang Yuliang interrupted him: "Get to the point."

"In short, he just wanted to use his face to seduce Sister Xiao, hoping she would pay his contract termination fee and even take him under her wing..." This was what angered Jiang Muyang the most. Sister Xiao had just said she would give him a leading role, and now this guy had suddenly appeared and almost stolen his opportunity. "He thinks he's handsome, but he's nowhere near as good-looking as me, and a hundred thousand miles worse than you, Huang Sheng..."

Huang Yuliang interrupted him again: "Get to the point."

Although Jiang Muyang is good-looking and has the face of a leading man, Huang Yuliang has one major headache: this person is too gossipy!

Huang Yuliang had seen Jiang Muyang gossiping with a bunch of female celebrities several times. He wondered why a grown man liked to gossip so much.

Jiang Muyang was perceptive and noticed that his boss was getting impatient. He quickly summarized the key points: "Sister Xiao doesn't want to sign Zhang Zhengjie, and she despises his character. She's worried that Zhang Zhengjie will bypass Sister Xiao and ask you to sign him. Mr. Huang, don't be foolish; this person has ulterior motives."

Jiang Muyang offered a very conscientious suggestion: "Zhang Zhengjie is obviously good at charming women. What if we sign him and he goes to charm Sister Xiao? Although our Sister Xiao has high standards and wouldn't look at such scum, even a strong woman can be afraid of a persistent man. What if she falls for him after he keeps pestering her? What will you do then, Mr. Huang?"

"What do you mean, 'what am I supposed to do'?" Huang Yuliang looked at Jiang Muyang with a hint of hostility.
