Chapter 353 Smart People
The crew of "Xuan-Yuan Sword" made such a big fuss, with ambulances roaring in and helicopters circling away. In addition, there were so many people in the crew and many gossips, so the news of Liu Shishi's injury could naturally not be concealed, and it topped the hot search list that night.
Fans were extremely anxious and concerned about their idol's health, and posted tens of thousands of prayer posts on Liu Shishi's Weibo.
In order to attract attention and gain traffic, some marketing accounts spread shocking rumors such as "Liu Shishi is seriously injured and dying" and "suspected of being disfigured", which angered the fans of the Yijie and the comment section was suddenly filled with smoke.
When Song Ci found out, he was furious. In the hospital corridor, he shouted at the Weibo CEO on the other end of the phone:
"You let those beasts curse Shishi. Liu Yan, do you still want to do this? If not, pack up and get out now."
Liu Yan, who was far away in Peking, was stunned by the scolding. The chairman was always gentle and polite, especially to female comrades. This was the first time he used such foul language.
He quickly assured: "Don't worry, Mr. Song, I will resolve all the rumors within half an hour."
Cai Yinong, who was standing aside, was so frightened that he remained silent, secretly thanking his lucky that Boss Song was still polite to him just now.
She had seen that when the richest man scolded his subordinates, he showed no mercy at all. If she were the president of Weibo, she would probably be scolded silly.
After hanging up the phone, Song Ci was still not satisfied and snorted angrily: "Idiot!"
"What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
Song Ci looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was his mother and mother-in-law who had hurried over. He let out a long sigh and controlled his negative emotions.
First he stepped forward and supported his mother: "Mom!"
Then he respectfully greeted his mother-in-law: "Mom!"
Mother Liu's eyes turned red with anxiety: "How is Shishi?"
"The doctor said it's nothing serious and I need to rest for a few days with an IV drip. I'm sleeping now."
Both mothers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Mother Liu felt sorry for her daughter, while Mother Song was worried that if something happened to her daughter-in-law, her son would not be able to bear it. Hearing that Liu Shishi was fine, the tense heartstrings finally relaxed.
"Mr. Cai, long time no see." Mother Liu noticed Cai Yinong in the corner.
Cai Yinong looked ashamed: "I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Shishi."
Mother Liu was magnanimous: "Accidents are unavoidable, as long as Shishi is okay."
Cai Yinong was about to say something, but Song Ci waved his hand irritably: "We will take care of this place, Mr. Cai, please go back first and deal with the public opinion online."
The richest man's intention to drive him away was obvious. Cai Yinong nodded tactfully, knowing that he was extremely annoying in Boss Song's eyes at the moment, and he didn't dare to stay any longer: "Then I'll go back and take care of the follow-up matters, and come to see Shishi tomorrow."
After saying that, he nodded to the two mothers and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
When the two mothers and Song Ci entered the ward to visit Liu Shishi, news about Yijie's injury had already exploded on the Internet.
Various speculations and rumors are rampant, with some people even maliciously spreading false information such as "serious injury" and "disfigurement".
But netizens soon discovered that these rumor-mongering accounts were being banned by Weibo officials at an alarming rate, and it was obvious that someone had taken action.
In the entertainment industry, many people were either busy trying to get inside information or watching with caution, and at this time, Zhao Liying took the lead in speaking out on Weibo.
Zhao Liying v: Pray! May Master be safe and sound.
The nation’s daughter Yang Zi followed closely behind: May our senior sister be safe and sound!
This awakened everyone in the industry, especially those artists who knew Liu Shishi or stars under Tengda, who all expressed their prayers for Liu Shishi on Weibo.
After all, everyone understands the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry. The richest man may not remember who posted on Weibo to pray for the No. 1 sister, but Boss Song definitely remembers clearly who didn't.
The night is deep, but the crew of "Xuan-Yuan Sword" has not yet finished work.
From director Li Guoli, leading actors Hu Ge and Tang Yan, to martial arts directors and stagehands, no one dared to leave and anxiously waited for news from Liu Shishi.
The cell phone rang suddenly, and Li Guoli quickly answered: "Hello! Mr. Cai, how is Shishi?"
After the conversation, Li Guoli felt relieved, took a breath and then cheered up. He must carry out Song Ci's requirements to the letter.
"Shishi was rescued in time and is now fine."
Everyone in the crew cheered immediately, feeling like they had survived a disaster.
"Quiet!" Li Guoli narrowed his eyes, and swept his sharp gaze over the few people who had been in despair before and now thought they had escaped a disaster. He said coldly, "The people from the wirework group and the security group can stay, and the people from other groups can disperse."
While Li Guoli was busy dealing with the follow-up issues surrounding the injury of the first sister, Cai Yinong responded on his official Weibo account to calm the boiling public opinion online.
Cai Yinong v: Shishi is in good health and will recover in a few days in hospital. Her family is currently accompanying her and taking care of her. Thank you for your concern.
Netizens left messages one after another, asking for details:
"Where exactly is Shishi injured? Please tell us!"
"Boss Cai, how did Shishi get injured? Have you investigated the cause of the accident?"
"Is it Song Ci who is taking care of Shishi?"
Cai Yinong had been worried all day and was already physically and mentally exhausted. He was even more exhausted after being scolded by Boss Song.
After posting on Weibo, I saw that many netizens were still chattering, so I simply closed the comment section and decided to just ignore it so that I wouldn’t be bothered.
Hengdian, the crew of "Legend of Lu Zhen".
Zhao Liying, who was the first to post a prayer message on Weibo for Liu Shishi, was on the phone with her agent Yang Tianzhen.
"Sister Zhen, can you find out which hospital the madam is staying in?"
Yang Tianzhen smiled meaningfully and said, "Liying, you are really smart. With your cleverness, it won't be long before you become famous. No wonder the chairman admires you the most among all the artists in the company!
Don't worry, the company's top management is checking which hospital the wife is in. The wife is injured, not to mention the presidents of various departments of the group, even the CEO and COO will go to the hospital to visit her. I will inform you as soon as there is news. "
Zhao Liying smiled slightly: "Thank you, Sister Zhen."
Beiping, Tengda Culture, Yang Tianzhen, who was still working overtime at the company, ended the call with an inexplicable look on her face. She had been hesitant, but now she finally made up her mind.
Among all the artists in the company, Zeng Jia values Yang Mi the most. It is an open secret that he will take Yang Mi out of the company to start his own business as soon as Yang Mi's contract with Tengda expires.
Yang Tianzhen, who thinks he is as capable as Zeng Jia, also wants to start his own business.
She tried to test the new president Liu Rong and found that his business philosophy was completely different from that of the former president Zhang Zhao.
It can be said that this is in line with the chairman’s thinking and he does not attach importance to artist management business.
Tengda Culture adheres to the business model of an Internet company and does not prevent its stars from being independent and setting up studios. This gave Yang Tianzhen the idea of starting a brokerage company.
She was originally still looking for a partner, but Zhao Liying's sharp reaction today finally made her make up her mind and choose to join forces with Zhao Liying.
Over there, Zhao Liying thought for a moment and quickly came to the conclusion that Liu Shishi must be staying in a Grade A hospital in Donghai.
Instead of waiting for news, he might as well go to Donghai immediately and wait for Yang Tianzhen's exact address so that he can go directly to the hospital to visit her.
Zhao Liying went to producer Yu Zheng and said, "Producer Yu, I want to take a day off tomorrow."
"Liying, is there something urgent?" Yu Zheng asked casually. As a producer, he had to keep track of the whereabouts of the heroine in the crew in order to adjust the shooting plan.
Zhao Liying hesitated for a moment, but still said frankly: "I have to go to Donghai. If the trip goes well, I will be able to return to the crew tomorrow afternoon."
Yu Zheng was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized and instantly guessed the purpose of Zhao Liying's trip to Donghai.
After all, he is the first star on the entire Internet to pray for Liu Shishi. It goes without saying why he went to the East China Sea at this time.
Yu Zheng thought about it and said, "Please bring me a bunch of flowers and a fruit basket as a token of your appreciation."
Zhao Liying smiled when she heard this. It was indeed not easy to make it in the entertainment industry. Yu Zheng wanted to take this opportunity to give in, show goodwill to Tangren, and ease the relationship.
"Is there anything else you need me to convey?"
Yu Zheng smiled knowingly, secretly sighing that these artists from Tengda Culture were all very smart people: "If you meet Mr. Cai from Tangren, please apologize for me. I will visit him in person some other day."
Yu Zheng had no choice but to do this. Cai Yinong held the trump card of Liu Shishi, so he had nothing to worry about. He could control all the heroes in the entertainment industry by holding Liu Shishi as his trump card.
Although he has reached a long-term cooperative relationship with Tengda Culture and Hunan Satellite TV, he does not want to continue to be in a stalemate with Tangren.
The entertainment industry is nothing more than this. It is better to resolve grievances than to create them. I believe he should lower his posture first and give up some resources later. There is no grudge that cannot be resolved.
"Producer Yu, I'm in a hurry. Please tell the director."
Yu Zheng couldn't help but admire Zhao Liying's thoroughness in doing things. Although in his crew, the director was just a decoration, he was the only one who had the real say in the entire crew.
But Zhao Liying still remembered to ask herself and the director for an explanation, which shows that she is very meticulous, which is truly admirable.
"Don't worry, I will ask Director Li for leave for you. It's dark and the road is long, so be careful."
It was late at night and the only sound in the ward was the regular ticking of the monitor.
Liu Shishi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly woke up. She saw her husband standing by the bed in a daze, and called softly, "Yi Yi!"
Song Ci was closing his eyes to rest, the exhaustion from running around all day coming over him like a tide, but Liu Shishi did not wake up. His concern for his wife made him afraid to fall asleep.
When she heard Liu Shishi's voice, she opened her eyes instantly, her eyes filled with joy: "Shishi, you're awake!"
After saying that, he pressed the call bell and asked the nurse to come and check.
Mother Liu, who was sleeping lightly on the accompanying bed, heard the noise and quickly got up and came to her daughter's bed: "Shishi, how do you feel?"
Liu Shishi's pale face forced a smile: "Much better, my stomach doesn't hurt as much as before."
Song Ci held his wife's cold little hand and whispered softly, "You've only been on IV drip for a day, it won't heal so quickly, you need to rest more!"
There was a knock on the door, and the head nurse on duty came in with two nurses. They glanced at Liu Shishi on the bed and said, "Mrs. Song is awake, right?"
Song Ci nodded, stood up and made way for the nurses to examine Liu Shishi.
The nurses skillfully checked the body temperature and the infusion: "Mr. Song, Mrs. Song's temperature is normal. She will need to continue the intravenous drip tomorrow. You can't eat anything today, and you can't drink any water."
"knew."
"Just call us if you need anything."
"Thanks."
After the nurse left, Song Ci saw that Liu Shishi's lips were chapped. Recalling his own experience in the hospital, he took a cotton swab, dipped it in water, and gently moistened her lips to relieve her dry mouth.
When Mother Liu saw how considerate her son-in-law was and how he personally took care of her daughter, she felt very relieved and sighed that her daughter was lucky to marry the right person.
"Yuan Dan, you've been tired all day, go back and rest. Shishi is in stable condition now, I'll be there to watch over her."
Liu Shishi was moved. She looked at her husband tenderly and agreed feebly, "Husband, go back and have a rest."
"Then I'll go back and change first, and come back tomorrow morning." Song Ci looked at his wrinkled shirt. The summer heat really made him feel uncomfortable. He leaned over and kissed his wife on the forehead. "Call me anytime if you have anything."
"Be careful on the road, Yiyi."
"Son-in-law, please be safe."
The next morning, Song Ci and her mother returned to Tomson First Hotel for a short rest and came to the hospital ward again early in the morning.
When Liu's mother saw her son-in-law and mother-in-law coming back, she hurriedly said, "Everything was normal last night. Shishi is still sleeping now. The nurse will come over to give her an IV soon."
Song Ci looked at Liu Shishi's peaceful sleeping face and sighed softly, "Not being able to eat or drink is a bit torturous."
Liu Xiaoxian glanced at her son and reminded him, "Don't give Shishi food on Yuandan Day just because you feel sorry for her."
"No, I can tell the difference between the important and the unimportant." Song Ci smiled helplessly, his eyes never leaving the person on the hospital bed.
After the attending physician finished his rounds, the nurse continued to give Liu Shishi an infusion.
With Song Ci's company, the two mothers returned to Tomson First Class to rest and recuperate so that they could take turns to take care of Liu Shishi.
Knock, knock, knock. There was a gentle knock on the door.
Song Ci, who was processing work emails on his laptop, said without even looking up: "Come in."
The door was gently pushed open, and a petite figure walked into the ward holding flowers and carrying a fruit basket.
Song Ci glanced at her and was stunned. He thought it was Cai Yinong who came, but he didn't expect it to be Zhao Liying.
"Hello, Director Song. I heard that Senior Sister Shi was injured, so I came to see her."
"That's thoughtful." Song Ci nodded with satisfaction, "Shishi is still receiving an IV and just fell asleep."
Zhao Liying looked at Liu Shishi's pale face and asked with concern, "Director Song, how is Senior Sister Shi now?"
Song Ci stood at the head of the bed and unconsciously touched Liu Shishi's forehead to confirm that she did not have a fever: "It's nothing serious, you just need to keep on hanging water and rest."
"That's good. I hope Senior Sister Shi will recover soon."
"The disease is like a thread being pulled out. It will take at least a week to recover."
"Have a seat." Song Ci sat down at the end of the bed and pointed to the sofa on one side of the ward. "Have you been filming a movie recently?"
Zhao Liying sat down on the sofa obediently, with her hands on her knees: "The company and Mr. Yu Zheng have cooperated on a movie called "Legend of Lu Zhen". Chen Xiao and I are currently filming this movie."
"Yu Zheng is quite talented. His dramas always promote people. I think you will be famous after filming this drama."
"Thank you for your good wishes." Zhao Liying smiled sweetly: "By the way, Mr. Song, these flowers and fruit baskets are from Mr. Yu Zheng."
"Thank you for me when you get back to the crew." Song Ci nodded slightly, his tone calm. There are thousands of people in the entertainment industry with thousands of faces, and it is difficult to tell what their true intentions are, but some things should be judged by actions rather than by the heart, and even if it is just superficial effort, it should be appreciated in the end.
