Ma Zhiyuan sat in front of the camera.
The live stream started a minute ago.
He remained silent for a minute.
The comments section was flooded with hundreds and thousands of messages.
His silence is puzzling.
—Aren't you going to tell me?
—What does it mean to remain silent?
What exactly happened between Lu Yanhe and Zhou Pingan?
...
Suddenly, Ma Zhiyuan picked up his phone, checked it, and nodded.
“Lu Yanhe hasn’t contacted me. Okay, half an hour has passed.” Ma Zhiyuan took a deep breath. “In the past half hour, you have no idea how many people have been looking for me and calling me. I thought Lu Yanhe was just being stubborn, but I didn’t expect him to be so stubborn.”
“Lu Yanhe had previously terminated his contract with Xingyu Entertainment before Chen Ziyan became his manager.” Ma Zhiyuan put down his phone and began to speak directly.
"If you search for Xingyu's official website and Lu Yanhe now, you should be able to find some reports from that time. Xingyu's official website once removed Lu Yanhe's name. Although those reports didn't attract much attention. It wasn't a technical mistake. Lu Yanhe really did terminate his contract with Xingyu. However, he seamlessly transitioned and signed a new contract with Xingyu, and his agent became Chen Ziyan."
"As for Lu Yanhe, I can't really say I like or dislike him. I mainly dislike Li Zhibai. He's arrogant because he's rich and popular. Lu Yanhe is close to him, so I dislike him as well." Ma Zhiyuan shrugged. "Who knew that Lu Yanhe would later become the most successful of the three of them."
—What a dirty heart! Even at a time like this, they still can't resist sowing discord.
Ma Zhiyuan happened to see this message.
He rolled his eyes and continued.
"Those who say I'm sowing discord, let me tell you, Li Zhibai did nothing before I even mentioned that Lu Yanhe was being suppressed by Xingyu and that they wanted him to leave the entertainment industry."
"He has such a fiery temper and a very good persona. It seems like he can't stand any injustice or unfairness. In reality, his good brother was severely suppressed by the company back then, and he didn't dare to say a word."
In the barrage comments—
—He's gone mad again.
—I thought he had calmed down a bit and was back to normal, hahaha.
—It's the same familiar taste, and it's still the Ma Zhiyuan we know.
—I'm really curious, does he both love and hate Li Zhibai and Lu Yanhe?
Jiang Yuqian pushed Li Zhibai back onto the sofa.
"Don't be impulsive!" She looked helplessly at Li Zhibai, who was already red-eyed with rage like a bull, and said helplessly, "Lu Yanhe is on the plane now. Do you want to have to clean up your mess after you land?"
Li Zhibai: "Ma Zhiyuan is a fucking idiot."
Jiang Yuqian: "You know he's an idiot, why are you still taking it to heart?"
Li Zhibai: "You know a dog can't change its nature of eating poop, but you see dogs eating poop and you get used to it?"
Jiang Yuqian: "..."
When Li Zhibai saw the fierce look in Jiang Yuqian's eyes, he immediately cowered.
"I was wrong," he apologized immediately. "I got carried away with my words."
Jiang Yuqian gave a soft snort.
“Ma Zhiyuan is a madman. Don’t fall for his tricks. Stay away from this kind of person. Let him go crazy. Once you respond, you’ll be dragged into a trap.” Jiang Yuqian warned, “Yan He knows best what kind of person you are, what you’ve done, and how you’ve treated Yan He. Yan He has always regarded you as his closest brother all these years. This is the best way to fight back.”
Li Zhibai: "Ma Zhiyuan really has something wrong with his brain."
-
"But aren't you all particularly curious as to why Xingyu and Zhou Ping'an wanted to kick Lu Yanhe out of the entertainment industry?"
Ma Zhiyuan finally got back to the main point.
"At that time, Lu Yanhe was almost unknown. He had been in the industry for three years, and his popularity had been declining year by year. Why did you have to force him to terminate his contract? Don't you find that strange?"
—It is indeed strange. Moreover, Lu Yanhe received two banners for bravery during his senior year of high school and sang his own composition "Remembrance" on a TV program. In fact, his popularity had already begun to rebound.
—What was Zhou Ping'an thinking, that he would terminate the contract of an artist who got into Zhenhua University on his own merit?
—Wasn't it because Lu Yanhe's situation improved at the time that he wanted to change agents?
...
Ma Zhiyuan kept everyone in suspense for several minutes, waiting for the discussion in the live chat to continue for a while before calmly saying, "From the very beginning, there were people who didn't want Lu Yanhe to enter the entertainment industry."
-
"What did you say?" Chen Pinhe stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Zhang Yuezhen: "I've been waiting for you to tell me about Lu Yanhe, but you haven't said anything. Did you think that before I got together with you and got married, I wouldn't have investigated your background?"
“I had no idea Lu Yanhe existed at that time. I only found out after I married you. She was already pregnant when she broke up with me,” Chen Pinhe said in a deep voice.
“I know you don’t know, and I’m deliberately keeping this from you,” Zhang Yuezhen said bluntly. “Once you find out, you will leave me, I know that.”
Chen Pinhe remained silent.
“You’ve been hiding Lu Yanhe’s existence from me all along. You’re afraid someone will find out what’s going on, and you’ve been trying your best to get him out of the entertainment industry and out of the public eye. I know all of this,” Zhang Yuezhen said. “But on the one hand, you’re also trying to keep it a secret and prevent the scope of this matter from spreading. So, your actions have been constantly hampered. He’s been lucky and managed to turn the tide several times. In the end, it developed into a situation that we can’t control now.”
Chen Pinhe: "What have you done?"
“You don’t need to ask me what I’ve done,” Zhang Yuezhen said. “Although I’m disappointed in you, you are still Lulu’s father. If something happens to us one day, we can’t both be in trouble.”
Chen Pinhe: "What exactly are you—"
"Chen Pinhe, you may not care about me, but Lulu is your child, a child who grew up by your side." After saying this, Zhang Yuezhen hung up the phone without waiting for Chen Pinhe's reply.
-
"Aren't you all curious? Who exactly doesn't want Lu Yanhe to enter the entertainment industry?"
"At that time, Lu Yanhe had not yet shown his current talent. Acting and screenwriting were all things that came later."
"At that time, Lu Yanhe had not even shown any talent in his studies. No one thought he could get into a good university. Zhou Ping'an even pretended to persuade him to go back to school in order to get him out of the entertainment industry."
"He even had the audacity to say that Lu Yanhe's excellent college entrance exam results and admission to Zhenhua High School were largely due to his encouragement and support. How could this person be so hypocritical?"
After saying this, Ma Zhiyuan immediately spat.
The comments in the live chat were even more interesting.
"Logically speaking, Lu Yanhe comes from a rural area. Who would want to suppress him and drive him out of the entertainment industry when he is not making any progress?"
"Could it be that one of us has been reborn and wants to eliminate this future rival?"
Ma Zhiyuan nodded.
“Maybe Lang Xia is a reincarnation.” Ma Zhiyuan said, then shook his head. “No, if he really was reincarnated, he wouldn’t have made the decision to leave He Yingzi and come to Zhou Ping’an. Coming to Zhou Ping’an is not a good thing.”
Ma Zhiyuan just kept talking to himself.
The sudden appearance of Lang Xia made the comments section even more lively.
"Oh, right, there's something else you probably don't know," Ma Zhiyuan said. "I heard about this from Zhou Ping'an."
"He almost died on Lu Yanhe's eighteenth birthday."
“Someone lured him to the riverbank and pushed him in. He almost drowned because he can’t swim.”
The news revealed by Ma Zhiyuan instantly went viral online.
-
Lu Yanhe has never told the public that he almost drowned.
This matter was known only within a small circle.
When everyone learned of this, they were shocked, but they couldn't help but let their imaginations run wild as they listened to Ma Zhiyuan's words.
Someone once tried to push Lu Yanhe into the river, wanting him to die?!
Is this real or fake?
Was Ma Zhiyuan just spouting nonsense?
This is just too unbelievable!
It's just like a thriller or suspense novel.
However, what Ma Zhiyuan said didn't seem like a lie.
Especially after Ma Zhiyuan finished speaking, neither Chen Ziyan nor the official Weibo account of Lu Yanhe's studio came out to refute the rumors.
-
Li Zhibai had already started filming.
Jiang Yuqian stayed in his lounge to wait for him.
As a result, Ma Zhiyuan suddenly resumed his live streams.
All work on set has been suspended.
Everyone is watching Ma Zhiyuan's live stream.
Because their producer and lead actor, Li Zhibai, had been following the matter closely, he decisively halted production just ten minutes ago.
Zhang Ruozhi sat next to Li Zhibai.
She asked in a low voice, "Is what Ma Zhiyuan said true?"
Li Zhibai sighed and nodded.
"Back then, we investigated this matter for a long time, but we didn't find any clues. I never expected that Ma Zhiyuan would find out about it from Zhou Ping'an."
Zhang Ruozhi looked surprised.
"how so?!"
Li Zhibai looked at Zhang Ruozhi, hesitating to speak.
Li Zhi had many guesses about Lu Yanhe's secrets, including who might be the person who pushed him into the water, but he couldn't say anything.
He fell silent and took a deep breath.
"I don't know the specifics of this matter either. Maybe we'll find out what happened when we find that person later."
Zhang Ruozhi: "I never imagined that Brother Lu had gone through something like this."
“He used to be so miserable, no one else could play the victim as badly as him.”
"I don't understand why Ma Zhiyuan would do this live stream to say these things."
“He’s been provoked,” Li Zhibai said. “His target isn’t Yan He, it’s Zhou Ping’an. He wants to destroy Zhou Ping’an.”
-
"So, why did Lu Yanhe immediately choose to terminate his contract with Zhou Ping'an and then seamlessly sign a contract with Chen Ziyan?" Ma Zhiyuan shook his head. "I think the truth behind it is already obvious."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of Ma Zhiyuan's live broadcast room.
Before he could react, his room door suddenly opened.
A person in a police uniform walked in.
Ma Zhiyuan looked panicked.
"How dare you barge in—Liu Lu, you opened the door for them without my permission?!"
A person in a police uniform walked over, made a move, and the live stream ended instantly.
Ten minutes later, the news that Ma Zhiyuan had been arrested by the police appeared on social media platforms.
-
Zhou Ping'an's name was also posted online, bombarded with all sorts of messages.
Many people are questioning him about what exactly happened.
Many people even began to directly accuse him of being a murderer.
To many people's surprise, Zhou Ping'an did not pretend to be dead.
He updated his status just thirty minutes later:
—In a society governed by the rule of law, murder is a crime. I am a law-abiding citizen. Those who break the law have already been arrested by the police. Please don't believe rumors, okay? You believe the words of a madman?
Zhou Ping'an's response naturally triggered an even greater barrage of criticism.
Someone asked if it was true that Ma Zhiyuan said Lu Yanhe was pushed into the river and almost drowned.
Zhou Pingan also replied: Yes, this happened. He called the police that night, and I also found out about it immediately. I was assisting in the handling of the matter, but at the time we did not find any clues to identify the suspect.
Someone asked, "Since you say Ma Zhiyuan slandered you, was it true that you suppressed Lu Yanhe back then?" Lu Yanhe did indeed terminate his contract with you very quickly.
Zhou Ping'an replied: Regarding this matter, I will sort out the situation and explain it to everyone later. I just want to say one thing: if I really did something wrong that was a matter of principle, do you think Lu Yanhe would still cooperate with me after terminating my contract? My artist Meng Li has participated in the spin-off movie of "The Seventeenth Floor", which is enough to say a lot.
Someone asked, "So you used Ma Zhiyuan's salary to create opportunities for other people under your management, isn't that a fact? The recording has been released."
Zhou Ping'an replied: This is the duty of an agent. When I used to exchange Li Zhibai and Yan Liang's resources for opportunities for him, why didn't he refuse?
Someone asked: So is this the reason why Li Zhibai and Yan Liang left you one after another?
Zhou Ping'an replied: The reasons are complicated. This is one of them, but not all of them, nor is it the decisive factor. As I said, it is normal for agents to coordinate the resources under their control. Today I will exchange A's resources for B, and tomorrow I will exchange B's resources for A. Each person's schedule and suitability will affect these things. It is unreasonable to talk about problems without considering the specific circumstances.
Some people say: Do you owe Lu Yanhe anything?
Zhou Ping'an: I feel indebted, but to be honest, I did my best to protect him on many occasions.
Immediately someone said: You are really shameless.
Zhou Pingan said: I am telling the truth, and there is absolutely no falsehood in my words.
Someone: Hehehehehehehehehe.
Zhou Ping'an: Don't laugh it off. I did try to get Lu Yanhe out of the entertainment industry, but when someone tried to use methods that crossed the line and principles, I stopped them. Otherwise, do you think that just because a teenager was almost pushed into a river and drowned, others wouldn't dare to use other methods? (End of Chapter)
