Chapter 174 Nationality

Jiang Fanyu was a person who was far away from the entertainment circle, but now, he was pulled into the entertainment circle by Ye Mengyu.

Ye Mengyu, who was supposed to be outside the entertainment industry, ended up in it, seemingly having nothing to do with her billions of dollars worth.

@Entertainment Hundred Knows: Big news, guaranteed. A new variety show on Fruit Channel, featuring guests: a film queen vs. a TV king family of four, a long-legged child star from Beijing, and a young lady vs. a domineering actor.

A million-dollar V account suddenly revealed the recording guests of Fruit Channel’s new variety show, which immediately became a hot topic and triggered a heated discussion across the entire Internet.

[Holy crap, holy crap, you're so arrogant, you dare to make up anything.]

The long-legged child star in the Beijing circle should be Yun Gege, but who are the other two groups? Does anyone in the circle dare to call someone "Miss" anymore? With Jiang Fanyu around, who's so shameless as to call themselves a "domineering boss"? Can you please have some shame? Can you please have some shame? Is there any limit to hype?

[Fruit TV, which started out as a hype-driven platform, has always been the best at creating hype and gimmicks. Those who don't officially announce anything but release details ahead of time are usually less famous and resort to specious names to hype things up. Yun Gege wasn't very famous when she was a child star either. Compared to the most famous child stars, she was at most average.

After entering college, I played minor supporting roles in several dramas. I wonder what kind of celebrity status the people who appeared on variety shows with them could possibly be? The person hinted at above definitely won't appear.

[Best Actress vs Best Actor, there are a total of seven such combinations. I checked and there are only two for a family of four, but the other one is strictly speaking Best Actor vs Best Actress, so it doesn't count.

The only two actors who can match the name are Chen Sui and Gu Yi, but they have been out of the film industry for over a decade.]

[What Chen Sui and Gu Yi said makes sense. Their eldest son, Gu Feng, has already debuted, so it's natural for them to pave the way for their son.]

[Dating and family variety shows are so overcooked, I don't know what's worth watching. Fruit TV has already produced almost ten of them, and the guests aren't particularly impressive. I don't know what the point is in producing them.]

If it's really the "young lady and domineering boss" story I thought it was, it's still quite exciting. I'm so curious. Back then, when movie stars checked in on livestreams, they'd read for an hour, sit in silent meetings for an hour, and I and the hundreds of thousands of people watching in the livestreams were so enthralled. They just sat at home, and I loved watching.

[Could the CP fans above please stop going crazy? My CEO Jiang's child is old enough to play with soy sauce, and the mother hasn't even shown a hair. He's protecting his wife, but it makes it easy for him to get his hands on her. Everyone is trying to get close to her. It's hilarious.]

[It's funny. I'm the eldest daughter. Do I need to rely on others? The richest family, what do they think they are?]

[They're a public couple in the entertainment industry, a well-known couple. Who wouldn't know them? No matter how hard some people talk, can they prevent them from sleeping in the same bed together at night?]

[The second child is almost here, and some dream girls are covering their eyes and refusing to admit it. What's the point? As if the movie star wouldn't be attracted to you if he wasn't with the eldest daughter. What are you dreaming about, auntie?]

[When you dream, can you look in the mirror first and then check the balance on your credit card?]

It's quite reasonable. The fans started fighting again, and passers-by followed suit and watched the discussion.

# Fruit New Variety Show Guests #

The huge amount of discussion pushed the new variety show on Fruit Channel to the top of the hot search list.

The topic square is full of speculation about the guests.

The contract has been signed for a long time. Fruit TV is so good at taking advantage of the popularity, how could it miss such a good opportunity for official announcement.

The official Weibo account of "Our Family" was urgently registered and published its first Weibo post: Thank you for your attention. In the next three months, please join the three families to experience the long history of Chinese culture.

Then @ three groups of families.

@Yun Gege's family, @Mai Sui Chen@Gu Yi@Gu Sui Fengshou's family, @Fan@Ye Xiaoyu's family.

Arranged by status, from small to large.

It is also a way of announcing the position without competing for it.

Of course, this public display of @凡 and @叶小玉 together is still based on the family unit. No matter what their ranking is, it has caused a sensation on the hot searches.

Five hours later, Weibo was repaired and went online again, but it was still booming.

Click on the entry and the person pinned to the top is the person involved, @叶小鱼.

No content was posted, only one photo, which was the first photo posted at the beginning, but this time the back was not blurred, and it was a high-definition photo.

As soon as the high-definition photo is released, that waist, that figure, that hairstyle, and most importantly, that side profile, not to mention that fans can recognize who it is at a glance.

Passersby can also see it.

I cut out the clip of Jiang Fanyu wearing formal clothes in the advertisement, and they are exactly the same.

There is absolutely no mistake.

The programmer cried.

The server that was just repaired crashed again.

Netizens who cannot access Weibo can only go to other platforms.

This kind of big news will definitely make headlines on all major apps and be pushed across all platforms.

If a phone is not set to block messages, news push notifications will keep popping up. Who wouldn’t want to click on them and take a look?

"Oh, that actress who led the troops in battle. I know, she's really pretty and rides a horse well. She's a great actress. Oh, is she married? Her boyfriend looks nice and handsome too. What does he do? Is he a car salesman?"

"This girl also played a fairy. She was really amazing. The one she got beaten so badly afterwards..."

"Isn't this the young lady of the Marquis' Mansion? I've seen it four or five times. Oh my god, that master is really her boyfriend."

TV dramas are very popular among the people. Uncles and aunts who watch short videos to earn phone bills and cigarette money have nothing to do at home except watching videos and TV.

He is even more familiar with Ye Mengyu than the famous actor Jiang Fanyu.

I occasionally recognize him because I watched "The Mistress of the Marquis's House" and remembered him.

In the eyes of most people, this is what the official announcement means.

At most, they'd add one more thing, "Oh, they're going to record a show? I'd have to check it out. Didn't that girl say her family is very rich? Let's see how they live."

The heated discussions among the younger generation only happen on the Internet.

"It seems to have no effect..."

Ye Mengyu, who has a serious fan circle mentality, sits at home, eating his own melons and muttering to himself.

The security where they live is the best, and it is impossible for any illegitimate children to get in.

I don’t know where to stay, and I can’t get in at all.

Moreover, they have so many cars that unless they are doing public activities, their private trips always involve several or even more than a dozen cars travelling together in a maze, making it impossible to be followed.

Therefore, no matter how noisy they are online, it will not affect their normal lives.

With works, you have confidence, and with an audience base, you are not afraid of anything.

While she was happily eating melons here, a little girl, who had brought home half a private plane's worth of luggage and loaded a large truck home with everything, was happily ordering the goods with her father.

That little head of hers was quite useful. She could actually remember so many things, including which ones were gifts for her family members and who they were for. She could explain them clearly and logically.

It's hard to imagine how he could remember it.

"Mom, this is for you. It's so pretty! It's a complete set, all put together by me. Will you wear this when you record the show?"

The little girl happily ran over to Ye Mengyu with a Bohemian-style dress in her hand to show him her treasure.

The national costumes are very nice, and there are also large headscarves.

It is paired with a set of exaggerated jewelry in a special tribal style, including necklaces, big earrings, complicated bracelets and anklets, which is very beautiful.

"I have one too. We can wear mother-daughter outfits."

"Baby, you're so partial. Daddy's going to be jealous. Why are there only mother-daughter outfits, but no father-daughter outfits or family outfits?"

Women's clothing is nice-looking, but men's clothing of the same style cannot be worn out.

"Yes, yes, yes. Here, here, here, I asked the designer to design them specially. There are pieces for our family of three, and there are pieces for grandma. There are pieces for grandma and grandpa, and there are pieces for great-grandma and great-grandpa. There are pieces for our entire family, even for Grandma Wei's uncle, the professor."

Dozens of sets have been prepared!

"Then let's wear parent-child outfits for the show. This one, with cartoon T-shirts, is very cute."

Mr. Jiang tried the clothes in front of him.

Ye Mengyu was full of black lines.

He's wearing a cartoon T-shirt?

Is it suitable?

"I drew this myself. Mom and Dad, you won't forget to wear it with your baby, right?"

[Hahahaha, I'm so looking forward to it! The celebrity's cartoon parent-child pajamas! Wow, our family of three will look so handsome!]

While listening to the cub's thoughts and looking at the three sets of panda pajamas of different sizes, Ye Mengyu was speechless.

What kind of naughty kid is this?

How old was she before she came here?

Or is it because I have been a child for too long and my cognitive ability has deteriorated?

What are you playing?

Whenever I think about the three of them wearing panda costumes for the camera, I feel so embarrassed that I dig my toes into the ground.

But then I thought again, so what if I get laughed at?

Isn't it enough as long as the three of them are happy?

What fans think is not that important.

The most important thing is to live your own life well.

Yes, that's it.

"Come here, baby, show mommy, what other gifts do you have? Did you bring Aunt Jiang Wan, Uncle Song, and the others?"

Throwing down the phone, I went to the pile of gifts for the baby and had fun with the mother and daughter.

…

"Mom, can I take all my books to our new home? And my yo-yo, pad, lightning shoes, treasure chest, claw machine... I can play with my friends."

Well……

"Baby, first of all, our new home doesn't have enough space for all your stuff. Secondly, it's in a village on the outskirts, a bit far from here, and moving back and forth would be a waste of time and resources. Finally, none of the three families filming this time have children around your age. The children in the village don't have the same conditions as ours, so they may not have as many toys as you do, and we might not be able to play together at that time."

"What does it matter? I can share it with them."

"But have you ever thought about how they've played with so many toys with you? What will happen to the children after we finish filming the show and go home? Even if you give them all the toys, they will break. What will happen next? Okay, we keep giving them these good things, but when they grow up, can you give everyone a car, a house, and a job? If you can't be responsible for someone's life, don't give them any illusions.

You have all these because your parents can afford them and believe that your baby will grow up to be an exceptional baby. But you have to know that not all children can grow up to be as outstanding as you.

Do you understand?

Ye Mengyu's thoughts were distracted by a few toys, and she nagged a lot, which killed the baby's interest and made him sit there thinking quietly.

Father Jiang sighed as he watched. He was pleased that his baby was kind, but at the same time he was worried about Mother Ye's pessimistic approach to education. She believed that the world was full of bad people and that everyone would harm her.

The paranoia is a bit serious.

"Okay then. I won't return the toys. I'll just take the books and picture books. If there are any children, I'll play with their toys with them, okay?"

Well……

"Can."

Still thinking about playing with the kids?

Is this child's mental state really regressed?

…

"Hahahaha, evil will be punished, everything has just begun. Start, start, la la la."

Qiqi got the latest news and ran home to share it with Ye Mengyu, and gloated over it.

"Has it been scheduled?"

"It's settled. It's going to air next month, the same day as our variety show. I wanted to announce it on that day, but our variety show happened to be exposed, so I didn't. After that, it was announced but nothing happened. Now everyone is looking forward to your and Mr. Jiang's couple variety show, and Gu Feng and Yun Gege are crazy about buying trending searches. There are more than a dozen trending searches every day. Her official announcement of the family drama only stayed on the trending searches for less than half an hour. Hehehe."

Zhou Xuran followed Ye Mengyu to take advantage of the opportunity. When "The Mistress of the Marquis's Mansion" became popular, her "The Courtyard of the Noble Family" had just finished filming. She rushed to make it while the popularity was still there.

She knew what was wrong with her drama: it was rushed, the script wasn't well-crafted, it was rushed, the cast was temporary, and Xia Shu's company even stuffed two actors in to add more scenes, watering down the plot quite a bit. If it hadn't capitalized on the popularity and relied on its own strength, it would have flopped miserably.

Relying on the reputation of previous period dramas, the drama was sold to the Yangshizi platform at a good price and the investment was fully attracted.

However, because of the exclusive broadcasting rights of "Mian Xiu Ren Jia" that had been agreed with Mr. Yao of Yang Shizi before, the other party gave Ye Mengyu a lot of face.

Of course, they are all veterans, and after watching the film, they also know that the film is unlikely to become a hit.

Compared to Ye Mengyu, who has a diamond reputation, and with the early promotion on variety shows, even Jiang Fanyu was brought in. Just based on this popularity, the show will be broadcast without any problems.

Between the two choices, of course I would stand on Ye Mengyu's side.

The copyright has been purchased and investors have been invited. Of course, the platform has the final say on when the show will be broadcast.

So the platform decided on the broadcast date, and Zhou Xuran negotiated with it several times but couldn't change it, so he knew what was going on.

"He threatened not to participate in the publicity."

"If she really dares not to publicize it, I respect her as a man."

Are you really that unprofessional? You are just making things difficult for yourself.

"She's just putting on an act. With all the shit she did before, Fu Group is now entering the mainland entertainment market and is distancing themselves from her, fearing they'll be linked to her and make grabbing the center position a corporate label. Fu Group's support for her is limited, so does she dare to act like that? Even the platform isn't coddling her. I'll see if she dares to truly stop promoting her."

Qiqi understands the sarcasm.

"That's fine. You and Li Mei should pay more attention to the group messages to see if she has any tricks up her sleeve. Don't be fooled or taken advantage of."

"I know."

"Keep an eye on Gu Feng and don't let them get close. If they show any signs of getting close, cut them off immediately. I want there to be no entries related to Gu Feng and Meng Zhu online."

"good."

…

"That's right, they didn't just ask the production team to replace the person."

Sister Luan praised Miss Ye for her tact and for no longer replacing people at every turn.

"So what if I changed? It's all about fame and fortune. If you don't have some scheming and tactics, you won't be able to stay in the circle anyway. We just get along normally and deal with it as it comes. Anyway, everyone in the circle knows that I won't tolerate being bullied. If anyone makes me uncomfortable, I will make them feel ten or a hundred times uncomfortable. Come on if you're not afraid of death."

"Of course not. Previously, Zhou Xuran and her gang hyped you up as the only righteous person who wasn't controlled by you and who resisted hegemony and evil forces. They were implying that you were the vicious supporting actress."

The word "vicious female supporting character" is not a connotation, that's her main job.

"The most important thing is to feel comfortable. Being a vicious female supporting role is good. How can you live comfortably if you're not vicious? Having said that, it makes sense to be vicious to them. Otherwise, it would be unfair to them.

I posted so many affectionate Weibo posts about her trying to capitalize on Mr. Jiang's popularity, and now I've finally gotten my act together. Aren't netizens already getting excited?

In the past, whenever Zhou Xuran lost her popularity and tried to take advantage of Jiang Fanyu's popularity, she would post on Weibo to show off their love.

On the surface, it looks like a head-on confrontation with a mortal enemy, with both sides engaging in give and take.

It's for this day.

The Internet still has memory, thanks to the deliberate efforts of some people. They dug out the Weibo posts of the two people's online confrontation, and combined with the official announcement of Pisces, it is clear who was hyping it up before.

Zhou, who already had a bad reputation, has now become even more dishonest, trying to take advantage of criticism and hype up the evidence, which is as solid as a mountain and cannot be further proven.

"Killing one to warn the rest is good. Now no one dares to think about President Jiang anymore. Those who used to take advantage of her are also trying to whitewash themselves. Su Lan is no longer struggling to get back to the top. She has found someone who is following her to whitewash her previous behavior.

Now I live in online dramas, filming ancient costume dramas, and working with young handsome men. I can earn money easily and enjoy the services of young handsome men. My life is so carefree.

People would feel much more comfortable if they just stopped competing with themselves and tried to reach things that they couldn't reach.

If I need money, I can still rely on the fame I've earned over half my life to record a few variety shows, earn tens of millions, and live a carefree life for a long time. How great is that."

That is.

What a wonderful day it is to lie down.

"Once the flies and bedbugs are gone, new competitors will emerge. The film industry isn't easy to navigate. The quality of your work is always the key. Alas... I'm almost 50, and in two years, I'll retire and go home to take care of my grandchildren."

"You're talking as if we can just win without doing anything."

[Goodness, if this is a novel, it means it's about to end, right? Look, the heroine and the supporting actress are still alive and well, what kind of ending is this?]

"You should fight for your own success. The future belongs to the young. As an old man, wouldn't it be better for me to not bother with you and just take my shares and retire with a nice dividend? If you're grateful for my kindness, I'd be very grateful if you could take all my shares in a few years and let me retire with a large sum of cash."

"Okay, okay, okay. Whenever you want to sell your shares, I will definitely buy them at the highest price. Our Mengzhu shares are very valuable now, and I won't give them to anyone else in the future."

"Why not give it to others? Now Qiao Xing, Qiao Ran, Qi Yi, and Chen Chen have all left. Their contracts will expire in a few years. How can we retain them if we don't give them shares?"

The eldest lady's method of retaining people has always been to give them shares, she is very generous.

"It doesn't matter. I have no problem with them starting their own business. Does that mean we're no longer friends and can't work together if they leave? If you retire, I won't sign new people. I'll just support the people I have now until they retire, that's all.

When will all this fighting and killing end? When the kids grow up and go to school, I should reduce my workload and spend more time with them.

I will only shoot when there is a scene I particularly want to film, otherwise I will take a rest.

Treat it as a hobby, and do it for the sake of love, which is great.”

It seems silly for her to receive so much dividends every year and work so hard for a few hundred million. She is not a career-oriented woman.

Lying flat is her eternal pursuit.

"It's a good thing you think that way. If all your films are successful, one a year shouldn't be a big problem. Everyone should just avoid you and avoid having your films released on the same schedule. If you release several films a year, and the quality is still good, then others will have no chance of survival and will start to target you.

Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. When anger strikes, no one cares who's behind the scenes. Look at CEO Jiang, he hasn't filmed a single movie in years and usually keeps his distance from the entertainment industry.

Every time he appeared, didn't everyone praise him? No one considered him a rival. First, they couldn't beat him, and second, they weren't in the same industry. A movie only had a one-month release window, so it wouldn't affect others.

If only one movie is released every few years, it will not affect the overall situation.

Hello, I'm fine, everyone is fine.

Haven’t you seen everyone shouting to netizens and industry insiders saying from time to time that it’s been a while since Actor Jiang’s film was released?

Well, that's the truth.

"As for me, I used to be obsessed and resentful, and I hated those with resources and those who added roles. Those with resources were okay, if they didn't act like troublemakers. But those who added roles messed up the good scenes so badly that they made it look terrible. It made me so angry that my breasts couldn't function properly.

Now I have filmed everything I wanted to film, and I want to prove to the audience that as long as you are willing to shoot well, you can still make a good movie.

My wish has been fulfilled, nothing else matters.

The entertainment industry won't change just because there's someone like me.

It's a rotten place. How comfortable it is to stay in the mud, why would those maggots want to crawl out?

Forget it, just live your life well."

In the past three years, she has taken on all the pressure to shoot several works, brought up several top stars, and made a group of people rich. What has changed?

No.

No matter what others do, it will still be the same.

It's funny to say, the only change may be Zhou Xuran, who even filmed a high-quality period drama in order to compete with her.

other people?

Forget it.

"Don't be so pessimistic. Change is possible. Our money-making formula is obvious, there's no secret. Everyone can see it, including the audience.

It is much more difficult to add or modify new works now than before.

Even if you want to do it, be discreet and don't be too obvious and attract criticism.

It's still a positive trend.

After all, personal power is limited, and you have done enough."
