Shen Yi.
Debuted at the age of seventeen.
He won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actor in the year of his debut.
At the age of 21, he won the Huading Award for Best Actor.
He was the most popular and star-studded male artist in the entertainment industry at that time.
However, not long after he won the Huading Award for Best Actor, his then-agent revealed that he was a pedophile, a drug addict, a prostitute, a gambler, and that his sexual orientation was male.
Eleven years ago, homosexuality was far less tolerant than it is now.
In addition, he was not only exposed as a homosexual, but was also involved in pornography, gambling, drugs and underage children.
So after the news came out, he was banned without even being given a chance to explain.
After listening to He Lin's explanation to Shen Yi, Yun Li frowned slightly: "From your last words, he was wronged?"
He Lin nodded: “Chen Yi called the police before he was banned.
After police investigation, it was found that his agent's so-called true revelations were all fabricated.
But it was too late by then, Shen Yi had already been banned.
And those truths were deliberately suppressed by his former company, and they didn’t make any waves.”
"His company is pressuring him to clarify?" Yunli was surprised. "Chen Yi is a double winner of the Golden Dragon Award and the Huading Award. How could his company do such a thing when he's such a profitable cash cow?"
He Lin glanced at her meaningfully, "How do you think the agent who broke the news about Shen Yi dared to spread rumors and slander him like this?"
Yun Li was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "You mean, the reason why Shen Yi's agent spread rumors and slandered him was instructed by the company?"
He Lin nodded expressionlessly: "Otherwise, how could she dare to cut off her own source of income?"
Yunli was very puzzled: "Why would his company give up on him?"
Shen Yike is the winner of both the Golden Dragon Award and the Huading Award, and he is still so young.
If that incident hadn't happened and forced him to retire, his current status would probably be unmatched in the entertainment industry.
Such a company is a living signboard, storefront, and cash cow. Yunli really can't understand what is going on in Shen Yi's company's mind.
He Lin glanced at her: “There are rumors in the circle that the chairman of Shen Yi’s company likes men.
Shen Yi was very young at the time, and his appearance was second to none in the entertainment industry.
Plus, the starlight on him is dazzling......"
He Lin didn't finish what he was saying, but Yunli already understood it all.
It was nothing more than that the chairman of the company that Shen Yi signed a contract with fell in love with him, but he refused.
Maybe something happened when he refused, which made the chairman realize that he could not get him.
So the chairman turned love into hate, thinking that if he couldn't get her, he would destroy her. Then he coerced and bribed Shen Yi's agent at the time to let her know about those things.
Perhaps after Shen Yi got into trouble, the chairman contacted him again, wanting him to agree to his love, but was rejected again.
Afterwards, the chairman turned his love into hatred and suppressed his clarification, completely ruining Shen Yi's brilliant star career.
Yunli didn't know whether his guess was 100% correct.
However, the truth of the matter was probably not much different from what she thought.
Really, what a bloody plot.
After thinking about the truth behind Shen Yi's accident, Yunli got down to business: "If I activate Shen Yi, will his company take action against Xingyi?"
Xingyi is still a small company that has just started and is still developing. It cannot withstand the storms of those big companies outside.
He Lin didn’t directly answer whether or not she would answer after hearing this, but said, “The company that Chen Yi signed with back then was called Jiashang.
When Jia Shang destroyed Chen Yi, those who knew the truth behind it felt that Jia Shang had gone too far.
And those newcomers were reluctant to sign with Jiashang because of the betrayal by Chen Yi's agent.
After all, no one wants to have a time bomb like that around them.
In addition, Chen Yixing was too famous at the time, which made it difficult for other artists in the same company to make a breakthrough.
So after he was banned, Jiashang couldn't find an artist who could take over his resources.
As a result, Chen Yi's resources were basically snatched away by top artists from other companies.
Not only that, after Shen Yi was banned, Jiashang couldn't find an artist who could serve as the face of the company for a while.
One is unable to recruit new people with good qualifications.
You can probably imagine the fate of an agency without top artists to show for themselves."
Yunli could indeed think of it.
In addition, none of the well-known companies today are called Jiashang, so she understood what happened to Jiashang now.
Or it will go bankrupt.
Or they will become small companies that pose no threat.
Anyway, no matter what, it will not have any impact on Xingyi.
Yunli felt relieved now.
But she thought of another question: "That Chen Yi has been out of the circle for eleven years. Even if he is willing to make a comeback, is his acting really okay?"
He Lin smiled: "What do you think of Shen Que's acting talent?"
Yunli was thoughtful: "You mean, Shen Yi's acting talent is higher than Shen Que's?"
He Lin glanced at her admiringly: “Shen Que’s acting talent is compared with Shen Yi.
It's like the difference between a sapling and a towering tree.
Of course, Shen Que, this sapling, is still in the process of growing.
However, Shen Yi's acting skills did not fully develop when he was banned that year.
Perhaps his acting skills have not improved in these eleven years.
But a grown tree will not become smaller and smaller over time and become a sapling again."
Yunli was now truly curious about Shen Yi: "Is his acting really that great?"
He Lin nodded: "Actually, I don't think it's appropriate to describe his ability as acting.
In my opinion, he is not acting.
Rather, the second he started filming, he became the person he was going to play.”
Yunli could hear from He Lin's words her admiration and appreciation for Shen Yi's acting skills.
If the acting skills of an actor who has trained three film queens and several first-line artists can be praised so highly by their agent, then the acting skills must be very good.
Yunli: "I just don't know if he's willing to make a comeback."
He Lin heard this and said, "After all this talk, I still don't know what kind of movie you are going to make.
Did you bring the script?
If you want to invite someone to return to acting, the script is crucial.”
Yunli took out the script of "Crime and Disease" and said, "I brought it."
He Lin took it, opened it, and took a look. She was a little surprised when she found out it was a suspense horror movie: "Suspense horror movie?
This type of movie isn’t very popular these days.”
Yunli smiled: "I think this one will create miracles."
"Really?" Seeing her confident look, He Lin raised an eyebrow and said, "I'll take the script first.
As for whether Shen Yi will be moved by this script and agree to make a comeback, I can only say that I will try my best.
I'll contact him first and if he's really unwilling, I'll recommend someone else to you."
Yunli nodded: "Then I'll trouble you."
