The van headed back to the villa. Xiao He felt like he had forgotten something, but he was still thinking about the absurd scene of "a gathering of heroes" at the audition. So he asked Sister Liu for his laptop and started investigating in the van.
It's easy to understand why producer Tung Chung was so ruthless. After all, anyone who knows Hong Kong at that time knows how rampant gangs were. There were over fifty gangs of all sizes. Later, many people like Tung Chung cleaned up their ways and went straight. In the end, they transformed into producers and big bosses, washed their hands clean, and came back to the entertainment industry, able to live openly and honestly again.
Needless to say, these people are extremely efficient and clean in their methods. They have long been dealing with the government and have developed their own set of survival rules. Xiao He's current investigation may not yield as much evidence as the police have.
As for Feng Zhengyang, that's even easier to understand. He was most likely the culprit who caused his lover's mysterious disappearance back then!
Unfortunately, Xiao He was unable to find any useful clues using his hacking skills. After all, the police knew he had problems and had investigated him many times. They had already figured out the clues that should have been found and the clues that shouldn't have been found. It was impossible for Xiao He to find out everything as soon as he arrived.
but……
Xiao He had a vague intuition that something unusual must have happened when these people came to the mainland entertainment industry to film a movie.
This situation makes it seem like something is about to be exposed and they're preparing to make a big profit and run away.
If that's the case, many things can be explained, such as zombie-themed scripts, casting decisions that prioritize capital over acting skills, and elaborate audition marketing...
When Xiao He examined their behavior again at this point, he felt that these people were very anxious, extremely anxious.
Thinking this, Xiao He looked at the list of "victims" circulating online again, and then nodded with satisfaction: Hmm, not bad, not bad, they are all people I don't have a good impression of, and they all have some problems.
Although he didn't know what stage the police investigation was at, judging from how eagerly these people were to make money, Xiao He felt that they definitely wouldn't be able to keep up this for long.
To avoid alerting the police and disrupting their plans, Xiao He only sent a few anonymous tip-offs and then refrained from further action.
Honestly, I hope these guys won't be unlucky enough to get wiped out when the movie is released.
...Ahem, Xiao He absolutely refused to admit that he was gloating.
Sure enough, sometimes it really does come true – "The Chinese entertainment industry has no rivals; it's all thanks to the contrast provided by its competitors."
Just as Xiao He was imagining what would happen next, his phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the notes, Xiao He suddenly remembered something he had forgotten.
"Damn it, you think you can just abandon your brothers after you got the audition?" Liu Zehang's voice rang out. "You heartless bastard, I've been wrong about you after all—"
"Ahem, sorry~ This meal is on me, it's on me!"
Xiao He was a little embarrassed, so he quickly arranged to meet Liu Zehang at a nearby restaurant.
When Liu Zehang arrived, Xiao He noticed that there was another person with him.
The person didn't look very old; even with sophisticated and mature makeup, their baby face still made them appear much younger.
"This is my new agent, Cheng Xue," Liu Zehang introduced.
"Hello, Teacher Xiao. Hello, Sister Liu."
Cheng Xue greeted Xiao He and Liu Rulan politely.
Liu Rulan looked somewhat surprised, then nodded slightly: "Hello."
Xiao He nodded as well.
Liu Zehang walked up to Xiao He and said with a smile, "Don't let Cheng Jie's young age fool you. She's a mother of two now, and her business skills are super strong. I had to go to great lengths with the company to snatch her away."
Xiao He exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?"
Looking at that baby face, he thought this person was a new agent who had just graduated from university!
Liu Rulan also spoke up at the right time: "Xiaoxue is only one year behind me, so we are about the same age."
Cheng Xue smiled and said, "Yes, it has been a long time, Sister Liu."
Liu Rulan: "I thought you really intended to focus all your attention on your family."
Cheng Xue shrugged nonchalantly: "I'm divorced, so I have to go out to work and earn tuition fees for my child."
Liu Rulan paused for a moment, then said nothing more: "Welcome back."
"Thanks."
