"Maggie is so envious of you. You've become famous overseas all of a sudden. You must have landed a lot of high-end luxury endorsements recently," Rosamund Kwan said with great envy.
Over the years, she has come to realize that relying on men is unreliable. When she was young, due to a sudden change in her family situation, and being a pampered young lady, her family suddenly ran out of money, which led her down a wrong path and she became a kept woman. Over the years, she has suffered a lot for money. Although she wouldn't say she sold her dignity, it was close. Most importantly, she didn't earn much money from men.
Over time, through her own hard work and acting, she has accumulated a considerable amount of wealth. As the celebrity economy becomes increasingly lucrative, she has come to understand that even when someone is famous, they can still live a good life without relying on men or being associated with wealthy men.
However, to thrive in the entertainment industry, one must possess corresponding commercial value. Although she is not exactly old and faded, she is past her prime, approaching 40. It will be difficult for her to earn money if she is no longer sought after as a leading actress.
Chingmy Yau, standing to the side, also looked on with envy. Now, Mandy Lieu is really doing well. She's famous overseas, not only making money but also leaving her mark on film history. That's an honor, and which actress wouldn't want that?
Why did she get married and retire from acting? Besides her disappointment with Wong Jing, it was also because she was getting older. What would she do if she didn't get married and retire? Would she become a mother? This once-popular sex symbol was unwilling to play supporting roles.
Of course, it's also related to Fatty Wang. That guy is really wicked. He's hooking up with Goddess Qiu while having a wife at home who refuses to divorce her. She knew this from the beginning and made a scene, but it was no use. Fatty Wang is a big liar. Hoping he'll divorce his wife is impossible. Just like I said, our relationship is purely based on love. Don't make things difficult for everyone. He's a scumbag and irresponsible.
Of course, Qiu's initial relationship with him wasn't purely for love. What could a fat guy possibly attract a beautiful woman? He could only flatter her. But when people spend a lot of time together, feelings naturally develop. However, feelings are feelings, and it's wrong for Fatty Wang to treat the goddess like an idiot.
However, the two did not fall out and remained friends. The reason they did not fall out was that Goddess Qiu left herself a way out, in case she needed it someday.
In this circle, unless it's truly a fight to the death, everyone can save face. Even if there's hatred, it's all put on a good show.
Actresses like Rosamund Kwan, Carina Lau, Michelle Reis, Gigi Lai, and Ada Choi were all "sleeped together" by Lau. Privately, they still chatted and collaborated as usual; the entertainment circle is all about business and profit. How much genuine affection was involved, nobody knows.
Chen Farong held Man Shen's hand: "Sister Maggie, could you introduce me to this Mr. Shen? I'm thinking of developing my career in the mainland and earning some money for retirement while I still have some looks."
Manshen smiled: "No problem, but Farong, you should think it over. At your age, you might only be able to play mother roles."
"I'm already this age, what else can I play if not a mother? As long as I can make money, that's fine."
Rosamund Kwan frowned, sensing that things weren't so simple. Logically speaking, they all came out around the same time. Although Monica Chan hadn't made as many movies as Rosamund Kwan, she still had quite a few, and her endorsements were countless. Over the years, she should have already saved enough for retirement: "Monica, are you short of money? Why do I feel like you're in such a hurry for money?"
Monica Chan smiled and said, "No, it's just that my boyfriend's company is having some cash flow problems lately, and I wanted to help him out."
Rosamund Kwan... Wow, she's amazing. She spends money to support men. Seriously, this woman isn't thinking straight.
Man was speechless, but she couldn't refuse her good friend's request.
Man Shen called Shen Fang over and told him about Chen Farong's situation, specifically asking Shen Fang to give Chen Farong more opportunities. She also mentioned Chen Farong's financial difficulties and asked if he could help her out.
Shen Fang frowned upon hearing this, but still nodded. If he remembered correctly, this short-haired, elegant goddess Chen seemed to have a rather tragic past. She was cheated out of 280 million yuan by her boyfriend, which even made the news. She was still unmarried in her fifties.
However, he couldn't remember the exact time he was scammed; it must have happened after he went north. Shen Fang remembered it so clearly because Zhu Ming, who scammed Chen Shennu, not only swindled her money but also ruined a well-known domestic grain and oil company. He caused harm, not just cheated people.
Shen Fang walked up to Chen Farong and carefully examined this woman who had once been his goddess, Long Jiu from the movie "God of Gamblers." Her figure was incredibly hot, with a curvaceous figure, short hair, and a delicate face. Any man would love her; she was the kind of woman who would truly make anyone's heart flutter.
He's doing quite well now, in great shape. He's also filmed many TV series in mainland China and left behind many memorable screen images. His role as Long Er in "The Duke of Mount Deer" (the version starring Dicky Cheung) is a classic that Hunan TV often airs. He's also starred in other classic TV series like "Water Moon Cave" and "Legend of the Mirror."
Hmm? Water Moon Cave Heaven? Shen Fang remembered, it seems that it was during the filming of this drama that the news broke that Monica Chan had been scammed.
"Hello, goddess, I am Shen Fang." Shen Fang extended his right hand to Chen Farong in a gentle and refined manner.
When Chen Farong saw how young and handsome Shen Fang was, she was taken aback. Although she had heard about Shen Fang and knew that he was very young, she was still surprised to see him looking like a noble young master. He was really handsome.
"Hello, Mr. Shen."
"Sister Manyu told me about your situation, and of course I welcome you to join our Longteng Media. However, I still have to say one more thing, goddess, you can't be too careful. A man who can be with you is no ordinary person. If such a person asks you for money, you need to be more careful. Don't be fooled. There are many professional scammers who specifically target older, beautiful, and wealthy retired actresses like you. You need to be careful to avoid being cheated out of your money and your virtue, and then you won't even have your retirement savings left."
