Chapter 45 Chapter 45 (revised)
Because of Qin Wen's hot search, "The Secret of the Six Doors", which had been gradually declining in popularity after the finale was aired, became popular again.
Other actors also became popular.
Especially the heroine Xia Ruoying. Originally, the character Rong Yu she played had emotional scenes with the male lead and the second male lead in the play. If she didn't perform well, she would be easily criticized.
But she digested this role very well. Rong Yu seemed impulsive, but actually careful. Even in terms of martial arts, she was on par with the male lead and the second male lead. She never treated her feelings in a clingy way, but was decisive, unrestrained and generous.
She performed the appearance of a true heroine.
The audience who had long been tired of the heroine in domestic entertainment finally saw the appearance of the heroine they wanted to see.
As for Xia Ruoying herself, it is said that she worked in the film and television city when she was very young, and played minor roles for several years. Only in recent years has she stepped out step by step with her own strength.
She is a very strong contender for the Best Actress of the Golden Lily Awards this time.
Recently, there have been many interviews about Xia Ruoying.
She has gained fans again with her ambition for acting.
The only regret is that she never talks about her family. She was filming on the crew on New Year's Eve. When asked about her family, she just smiled and did not answer.
Therefore, when a video titled "Xia Ruoying refuses to recognize her parents, and her biological parents kneel down and kowtow" became a hot search, everyone was shocked.
In the video, Xia Ruoying should have just finished recording a program and was stopped by an old couple. The couple was crying and wanted to say something to her, but Xia Ruoying was cold and indifferent, and ordered the bodyguards to stop them. In the end, the couple knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her, but she left without looking back.
[Didn’t Xia Ruoying say that she has a good personality? She looks so fierce in the video! Sure enough, this is the real her. She was just putting on a show before.]
[I have been a fan of Ruoying for many years. She is definitely not that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding. 】
【Who knows if they are real parents? Just pick two
random people and rush up. If I were Xia Ruoying, I would not be happy】 【Even if they are not parents, two old people kowtow to you. If you have any courtesy, you will ignore them and just walk away】
【I think it might be real. Although the facial features of those two people are a bit old, they really look a bit like Xia Ruoying】
...
While the Internet was discussing it, the couple in the video started a live broadcast.
Both of them looked honest and sat very stiffly in an old and dark room.
The woman cried with snot and tears all over her face, and said in broken Mandarin: "I know we are poor, Nier, you have despised us since you were a child, but you are a piece of flesh and blood that fell from my body. You stole all the money in the family and ran away, causing your father to break his leg while working, and there was no money to treat it. We don't blame you for all these, but we are afraid that you will be cheated outside. After knowing the news about you, we took a car for more than ten hours, just to hear you call mom and dad again..."
The man next to her didn't say anything, but just sat there with his head down.
[Seeing them, I thought of my own parents...]
[She cried so pitifully, I am also a mother, I can really empathize with her]
[Xia Ruoying is really selfish, running away is fine, but she even stole all the savings of the family! 】
Next to the two of them was a woman who was also dressed simply. She claimed to be Xia Ruoying's junior high school classmate. She looked disappointed and said to the camera: "I don't know whether I should call you Xia Ni or Xia Ruoying. I used to envy you because you are beautiful and have fair skin. Later I found out that your family conditions are not good. It is your uncle and aunt who are especially good to you. During the summer harvest, we all have to go to the fields, but you don't..."
Netizens looked at the dark skin of the three people in the video, and then thought of Xia Ruoying's cold white skin, and they believed most of it.
【I am from the countryside, I can testify that during the summer harvest, the whole family really has to go to the fields. It is very hard. Not letting her go to the fields is really pampering her. 】
【I didn't like Xia Ruoying before. She looked shrewd. It seems that my intuition is still quite accurate! ]
[Alas, I used to admire Xia Ruoying, a female star with ideas, but I didn't expect her to be such a person, I turned from a fan to a hater! ]
[
For a while, the Internet was in an uproar, all of them were scolding Xia Ruoying.
Gu Xingshi happened to see this trending search and couldn't help but frowned.
Judging from the brief time he and Xia Ruoying had been together, he felt that Xia Ruoying was not like what the couple said.
Thinking of this, he called out the system: [System, is there any gossip? ]
System: [Host, we really have a tacit understanding, I was just about to tell you! ]
[In fact, the truth is not at all what they said. Speaking of which, Xia Ruoying is quite miserable. Her parents were particularly patriarchal. When she was born, her father wanted to drown her immediately because he saw that she was a girl. But someone said that she had a good face and might have a great future. So she survived. Her parents
were not hardworking people. They were lazy, gamblers and alcoholics. When Xia Ruoying was very young, she had to do all the housework and work in the fields. However, she was born with fair skin, and she recovered after taking good care of her skin when she became an actor. Even though she was so well-behaved, her parents would beat her if they lost money or got drunk. 】
【Later, when her younger brother was born, she became his nanny. She had excellent grades and was allowed to attend the county high school for free and with a scholarship, but her parents locked her up at home and did not allow her to go out. What was even worse was that when Xia Ruoying was only 15 years old, they took a large sum of money as a betrothal gift and wanted to marry her to a widower who had beaten his wife to death. 】
【After Xia Ruoying found out, she tried to run away, and she did not take the family savings, which were all the money she had secretly saved from picking up scraps. As for what they said about the savings being gone and her father being injured while working, it was actually because they had lost all the betrothal money and were interrupted by the widower and his men. 】
Gu Xingshi felt mixed emotions.
No wonder Xia Ruoying always worked so hard in filming. This drama has a lot of martial arts moves, and she did everything she could.
Qin Wen said that she was injured several times, but she endured it in order not to affect the filming of the crew.
It turned out that it was because of her background.
The system said: [That's not all! There's even more gossip! 】
Gu Xingshi: [There's even more gossip? ! 】
System: [Xia Ruoying's younger brother Xia Yaozu is actually not her father's son at all! 】
Gu Xingshi: [!!!]
System: [Xia Ruoying's mother was abused by her father because she couldn't give birth to a son. Later, she gradually fell in love with another man in the village. She often fooled around with him when her father was not at home. Xia Yaozu was also born with this man. As for Xia Ruoying's junior high school classmate, she was also fake. She was a neighbor of the Xia family. After accidentally knowing this secret, she has been threatening Xia's mother. This time, she came here to blackmail Xia Ruoying.]
After listening to this, Gu Xingshi only had two words to comment: [Explosion.]
However, it was precisely such a group of explosive people who were destroying Xia Ruoying, who had escaped from the abyss and was working hard to live.
-Xia
Ruoying looked at the agent pleadingly: "I have worked in the company for so many years and earned so much money for the company, and the company is not even willing to help me clarify? Even if you don't help me clarify, you can give me the Weibo and I can clarify it myself!"
The agent sighed in a fake way: "Ruoying, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's better to deal with this matter coldly, and if you explain it, there is no evidence, and no one will believe you at all."
Xia Ruoying clenched her fists tightly, but she was a little disappointed.
Yes.
Outsiders only see her glamorous and her parents are poor.
Seeing her cold and frosty, her parents begged bitterly.
She had no evidence to prove what she had gone through, but outsiders could see her fleeing her hometown, her father's broken leg, and her so-called "junior high school classmates" testifying for them.
She alone seemed so insignificant in the face of the torrent of public opinion.
Seeing this, the agent quickly took out a contract: "I have been with you for so many years, how can I harm you? When you renew the contract, leave everything to the company, and everything will be fine."
Xia Ruoying looked at the harsh terms in the contract and sneered: "Sister Cai, you let me sign this contract, aren't you just asking me to work for the company for nothing?"
"What are you talking about?" the agent said sarcastically, "I'll just say it straight, the most important thing for an actress is her reputation. With your current reputation, the company wants to clear your name, I don't know how much energy and money it will take. If it weren't for the fact that you have worked in the company for so many years, who would be willing to take on this hot potato?"
The agent followed the principle of giving a sweet treat after hitting someone with a stick, and softened his voice, "Don't think I'm being harsh, weren't there so many agencies contacting you before? You said it so nicely, but now that you've gotten into trouble, aren't they all running away? All men are evil, and everyone wants to make money. Do you think you are still the same as before? To be honest, even if you go to them to beg them now, no one will sign you. Even if they do, do you think the conditions will be better than those in our company?"
Xia Ruoying bit her lip subconsciously.
After the hit of "The Secret of the Six Doors", many brokerage companies did contact her, including some well-known large companies in the industry.
But as the broker said, after the video appeared, these people never contacted her again.
Seeing her wavering, the broker said: "This is how it is, you think about it carefully. But I also advise you that this world is like this, there is no emotion, it is all about interests. Your biological parents treat you like this, let alone outsiders?"
These words were like a needle, piercing Xia Ruoying's body, making her body shake.
After the broker left, she was the only one left in the room.
Xia Ruoying could no longer hide her fragility. She curled up and hugged herself tightly with both hands.
Yes.
There is no such thing as true love in this world.
When she was popular before, countless people came up to her and wanted to be friends with her.
But after she got into trouble, all these people avoided her.
In other words, a few people from the "Six Doors Secret" crew sent her messages to comfort her, but they were all constrained by the company and did not dare to say anything more.
She has never felt so lonely and desperate.
She thought she had escaped from the abyss, but now it seems that she has never really walked out of the abyss.
Maybe the agent is right.
While she still has some value now, she should sign it.
Otherwise, her reputation will be ruined and she will never be able to film again, and she will only be worse than she is now.
Xia Ruoying held the pen and was trembling as she was about to sign her name.
But at this moment, her cell phone rang.
She stared at her phone in a daze, only to see the words "Gu Xingshi" appear on it.
Xia Ruoying controlled her emotions before answering the call: "Hello, Mr. Gu."
Gu Xingshi heard her voice on the phone, which she tried her best to suppress but still had a hoarseness, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Are you okay?"
The warm voice penetrated into Xia Ruoying's ears, like a warm current, relaxing her tense body slightly.
This was the first person who called her and asked her "Are you okay?" after the accident.
She had not cried since the accident, but for the first time she had the urge to cry.
But she tried hard to restrain herself: "Thank you, I'm fine."
Gu Xingshi organized his words: "I've heard about what happened on the Internet, and I believe you are not that kind of person."
Xia Ruoying was stunned.
This is the sentence she has been eager to hear the most in the past few days.
But her agent did not say it, and her friends in the circle did not say it.
Instead, it was Gu Xingshi, who she had not known for long, who said so.
Gu Xingshi comforted her for a while, and finally said meaningfully: "Don't worry, the innocent will be innocent, and this world will definitely give you justice!"
Xia Ruoying did not think much about it.
Although it was just a short phone call, she had already drawn strength from it.
When she looked at the contract again, there was no fragility on her face, only strength.
She was able to defeat fate and escape from the abyss that year, so she can do it now.
Just when she tore up the contract and was ready to fight hard, she suddenly saw 10086 posted on Weibo.
[A gambling mother, a domestic violence father, a broken her, and someone else's Yaozu. 】
As a top gossip
...
[It's 4202, and I can still see such outrageous parents! ]
[Ruoruo is so pitiful, no wonder she never talks about her family. I almost believed what the old couple said before. Now think about it, I really deserve to die! Wuwuwuwu, Ruoruo, I will protect you for the rest of my life! ]
[Although it's not nice, but I really want to laugh, other people's Yaozu hahahahahaha]
[That green-headed turtle doesn't cherish his own daughter, but helps raise other people's sons very well. I don't know what he will do after he knows the truth]
...
Live broadcast of the scene.
Xia's father and mother are still crying about their miserable life, Xia Ruoying is ungrateful, and the "junior high school classmate" next to them exaggerates.
The three of them looked at the netizens who scolded Xia Ruoying with them, and they were very proud.
When the popularity gets higher, they will go to the TV station and force Xia Ruoying to recognize them, and then let her take out money to support them. She has been a star for so many years, she must have tens of millions!
Just when the three of them were dreaming, the content of the barrage suddenly changed.
They were all [Gambling mother, domestic violence father, broken her, and other people's Yaozu.]
Some people even cursed them and felt sorry for Xia Ruoying.
The three of them were stunned.
"Junior high school classmate" clicked on Weibo according to the clues on the barrage, and then his face changed.
Seeing this, Xia's father snatched the phone away, and after reading the content on it, his face turned pale. He didn't expect that someone would post their previous experiences.
But the more he read, the more confused he became: "What do you mean by someone else's Yaozu?"
[Hahahahahahahaha, I don't even understand this! This means that the son you raised with so much effort is not your son! ]
[To put it more simply, your wife cheated on you! ]
Father Xia raised his head suddenly, just in time to see Mother Xia and the "junior high school classmate" looking guilty. He immediately understood: "Okay!! I was saying that Yaozu doesn't look like me! And you said he hasn't grown up yet! It turns out this is not my son at all!"
"I'll beat you to death, you old xx, you¥#%#..."
He cursed with obscenities and picked up a stool and smashed it over. Mother Xia's screams were soon heard at the scene.
The junior high school classmate wanted to run away, but he grabbed her hair and said, "And you! You knew that this bastard was cheating on me and kept it a secret from me. You even wanted to share Xia Ni's property with us!!"
[Oh——]
[So this is the truth! ]
[The screen has been recorded and the police have been called. No thanks! ]
Although the live broadcast room was soon banned due to violence and insults, the netizens who called the police later said that the three people were arrested and were about to be judged by the law.
This live broadcast was also spread by many netizens, which immediately reversed the trend of the network.
Xia Ruoying didn't even react yet.
But after the shock, her first reaction was to be moved.
Everyone knows that the 10086 boss has always only spoken for the artists under General Gu. This time he spoke for her for the first time. It must be General Gu who helped.
She was obviously not an artist under President Gu, and even to President Gu, she was just a person he was not that familiar with.
But he was willing to help her in this way.
Tears finally fell from Xia Ruoying's face.
But it was because of warmth.
At this moment, her agent walked in with a new contract in his hand, and said with a smile: "Ruoying! I finally got a new contract for you. I think we should sign it as soon as possible. I can also promote you before the Golden Lily Award..."
Before the 10086 incident, Xia Ruoying had already decided not to cooperate with her.
Now she is even more confident.
She didn't even look at the content of the contract and directly refused.
The agent was anxious and panicked: "Do you still want to sign with a big company? Don't dream..."
Before she finished speaking, Xia Ruoying's phone rang again. The other party was the agent of Xingyao Media, and he also took out a more generous contract than all the previous agencies.
Xia Ruoying ignored the pleading agent and walked out of the room with her head raised.
This time, she may have really walked out of the abyss.
-After
signing the contract with Xia Ruoying, the agent of Xingyao Media breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she has always been optimistic about Xia Ruoying, and she knows Xia Ruoying's former group leader. She vaguely knows a little about Xia Ruoying's family situation and has a good impression of this strong and thoughtful girl.
After the accident, she has been working hard to fight for it.
Until 10086 posted on Weibo.
This incident also caused quite a stir in Xingyao Media.
Xingyao Media and Sweet Orange Video are the two most important pieces of the entertainment sector under Wen's group. They have always been both cooperating and competing.
Xingyao Media used to overwhelm Sweet Orange Video, but since the start of "Men's Group Training Camp", Sweet Orange Video has been catching up and now has overshadowed Xingyao Media.
Not to mention, there is also Sun Hongfei, who has been promoted like a rocket. His status is even different now. He has a close relationship with Assistant Tang and is about to become Wen's confidant.
There were rumors that Gu Xingshi of Le Shi has a close relationship with their President Wen, and Sun Hongfei has achieved his current glory because he has held the right thigh.
Now, is the wealth and honor finally going to fall on us! !
Compared to the commotion inside Xingyao Media, Sun Hongfei sneered.
Can the relationship between him and President Gu be simply described as clinging to someone's thigh?
They have been through so much, and they have a life-long friendship!
Besides, these people only think that President Gu is the canary kept by President Wen.
Only he knows what a beautiful love there is between the two of them!!
President Wen protects President Gu's career, and so does President Gu.
Sure enough, you can doubt anything, but you can't doubt the love between President Gu and President Wen!
So, the next time he reported on his work, he pretended to mention this matter casually.
Wen Yue was stunned.
He helped Gu Xingshi to repay a favor.
Besides, he didn't do anything, just to ensure a fair environment. If Gu Xingshi's artists can win awards, it is also his own ability.
But Gu Xingshi did this without any mixed thoughts, just to help.
Thinking back to the earlier time, he privately recommended Wenshi to Feng Tingyun. If it were someone else, with such a big favor, who knows how much they would ask for from him.
But Gu Xingshi didn't tell him a word. If Sun Hongfei hadn't happened to hear it on the spot, he would never have known.
In the final analysis, he didn't consider these at all.
He was really just enthusiastic.
Wen Yue was already used to the intrigues in this circle, but it was the first time he met Gu Xing, who was so honest and sincere to the point of being a little silly.
It made him feel that the ice in his heart was melting.
Although he didn't show it on his face, all the subordinates who came to report on their work that day felt the gentleness from President Wen for the first time.
It felt like the corpse spots had faded a lot!
Only Tang Ling: "..."
My boss seems to be a little bit wrong.
-Soon
it was the Golden Lily Award ceremony.
Originally, Gu Xing was still worried that it was Qin Wen's first time to attend such a big event, and he didn't have enough resources in the fashion circle, so it might be difficult to borrow enough clothes.
Who knew that Xingyao Media was unusually enthusiastic and took the initiative to help Qin Wen borrow clothes.
Gu Xingshi was a little confused at first, but then he thought, didn’t Xia Ruoying sign Xingyao? She must have put in a lot of effort.
Although it was Qin Wen’s first time walking on the red carpet, he was not stage fright.
The only sound at the scene was the sound of cameras.
After Qin Wen signed his name and took pictures, he walked to the media interview area and slowly smiled.
Media: "!!!"
The media interview area, which was originally very lively, suddenly became quiet.
After a long time, a media finally stood up. This media is usually famous for its sharp questions and is best at poking the hearts of artists.
Everyone looked at him expectantly, and heard him ask: "Qin Wen, how do you feel about participating in the Golden Lily Awards for the first time?"
Everyone: ???
That's it? ! !
Where is your sharpness! Where is your sharpness! !
Qin Wen answered in a bland manner.
The media area fell into a strange silence again. The host looked at Qin Wen's expectant eyes and could only cue a media outlet. The
winning media outlet asked with a trembling voice: "Well... Qin Wen, what did you have for dinner today?"
