For people in the film industry, they all know why Chengguang appealed Ye Jingran's case again after many years.
Chengguang has a legal team that was established at great expense and is very well-known in the industry. They are also very adept at using lawsuits to delay opponents.
Wei once sued Chengguang for plagiarizing "Star Wars", but because there was no film to prove it, their legal team was involved and they did not win the lawsuit. However, Chengguang was able to successfully shoot "Star Wars".
However, for the non-industry spectators, although this lawsuit brings up some old issues, it is not a bad thing to bring it up. The main reason is that the outcome of what happened back then was not clear in the eyes of the public, because neither party had conclusive evidence. This also led to the fact that Ye Jingran's case has not been completely concluded and has been controversial.
There are many controversies surrounding Ye Jingran. Originally, everyone's attention was on the clash between Wei Lan and Chen Yuanhang's new movies. Now that Ye Jingran was sued by Cheng Guang, the public's attention shifted to the fact that Wei Lan's new movie actually used such a controversial actor.
All I can say is that Wei Lan has made big news again.
After Chengguang did this, Wei Lan, who got the news at home, was furious. If everyone was competing fairly in the movie, she would have looked up to Chengguang and Chen Yuanhang, but she didn't expect the other party to use such disgusting off-field tactics.
Wei Lan is a proud and upright person by nature. He dislikes this kind of conspiracy and tricks the most, so he contacted Secretary Wang directly.
So, everyone saw that when Ye Jingran was sued in court, the official Weibo of Wei Lan Studio announced a new news.
Here is the information of two newly signed actors.
These two actors are none other than this year's Golden Tripod Award winners for Best Actor and Best Actress, Ye Jingran and Chu Mo.
Not only the netizens, but the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar. Whether it was Chu Mo, the currently popular movie queen, who chose Wei Lan's studio, or the fact that Wei Lan dared to take the initiative to stand on Ye Jingran's side at this controversial juncture, they were also amazed.
Public opinion exploded on the Internet. In the topics of #Chengguang appeals to Ye Jingran# and #Wei Lan signs with Ye Jingran#, as well as under the official account of Wei Lan's studio and Wei Lan's personal Weibo, many negative messages and doubts appeared in the comments:
"I'm really confused. Shouldn't Ye Jingran have been kicked out of the entertainment industry long ago? How come he still has a chance to win the Best Actor award?"
"We must firmly boycott movies made by bad artists. Although movies have nothing to do with personal life, allowing such artists to gain influence will only encourage bad trends."
'It can only be said that there are also disadvantages to becoming famous at a young age. Wei Lan has been too successful in the past two years since her debut. I have to admit that she is indeed a genius, but that doesn't mean she can be so arrogant.'
"When people become arrogant, they don't consider anything. I have always known that Director Wei doesn't like to use active actors in the industry, and prefers to discover actors himself. But I really hope that this lawsuit will make Director Wei realize which actors can be used and which actors cannot be used."
Of course, there are people who support Wei Lan.
"Ye Jingran's case obviously didn't work out, so why do so many people believe that there's something wrong with him? Aren't there enough shady dealings in big companies?"
"People outside the industry don't understand. There are many insiders here. Let me tell you one thing. The film industry doesn't have a good opinion of the company Chengguang..."
Under Wei Lan’s Weibo, one of the comments was voted the most liked by her fans who supported her.
"I believe in Director Wei's vision. When has she ever chosen an inappropriate actor? She discovered Yang Xingyuan when he was still a minor actor. She was the only one who dared to use Su Yining after she won the Golden Raspberry Award. She pulled Gu Yun out of the company that had previously hidden him. I think she must have her reasons for choosing Ye Jingran."
When you think about it this way, it seems to make a lot of sense.
And as the news was announced, the public suddenly discovered that Wei Lan Studio, which was established only a year ago, can truly be called a palace of superstars.
The male actors include the movie emperor Yang Xingyuan, Gu Yun, who is now one of the most popular actors, and Ye Jingran, who is undeniably a movie emperor even though he is involved in a lawsuit. The female actors include the new movie queen Chu Mo, and Wei Sijia, who transferred her agency contract to Wei Lan's studio at some point in time. They are all actors who became popular in the past two years from Wei Lan's movies.
Other actors who have worked with Wei Lan also praised her highly. Su Yining casually said in an interview some time ago that he would switch to Wei Lan Studio when his agency contract expired. Qin An, who has never signed a contract with any agency, joked that if he were to sign a contract that day, he would choose Wei Lan Studio.
Wei Lan didn't care about the rumors on the Internet. The most important thing right now was to finish the lawsuit as soon as possible and not affect Ye Jingran's condition.
The lawsuit went to trial in mid-May. During the same period, Star Wars was already coordinating the actors' schedules and preparing to start filming.
When Wei Lan got angry, he would not give in. During this period, he began to prepare the script and framework seriously. Every day, when he had new ideas about the character settings, he would communicate with Ye Jingran in a timely manner to ensure that this lawsuit would not affect the filming of the movie.
As for the actual confrontation in court, Wei's legal team is not there to sit back and do nothing. They are in charge of everything. Ye Jingran just has to work harder and set aside a certain amount of time every day to cooperate with the lawyers.
Just one day before the trial, Wei Lan was writing a script at home when he suddenly received a system prompt in his mind.
'Lucky Aura has been consumed, mall items refreshed'
Wei Lan was startled: What's going on? ?
She opened the so-called system mall in her mind. The only item in the mall should be the lucky halo, but this time it changed from gray to color, indicating that it was available for purchase.
At the same time, Ye Jingran received a call.
An excited voice came from the other side: "Brother Ye, the thing you asked me to investigate has made a breakthrough!"
Ye Jingran's expression tightened, and he asked expectantly: "What did you find? Is there a backup of the surveillance video?"
The other party was a famous private detective hired by Ye Jingran. This kind of person who walks in the gray area has many connections and can often find things that the official cannot. For example, the surveillance video of the residential area where he lived at the time had been destroyed when the official went to inquire. However, Ye Jingran learned from this private detective that such videos that were destroyed in advance would usually be backed up by the person who handled them, and then find an opportunity to make money again.
"Yes, the backup surveillance video was bought at a high price half a month ago. I thought there was no way to fix this matter, but... it turned out to be too weird! I still think this kind of coincidence only happens in movies!"
"What's going on?" Ye Jingran asked with a frown.
"When I went to the community to investigate again this morning, I met a drone enthusiast who liked to use a drone to shoot scenes in the community and make vlogs. When I saw it, I had an idea and asked him when he started shooting. He told me that he had been shooting for six years and was also a well-known D station up-loader."
"I immediately asked him for help, and I actually found the video of the day of the confession in the footage he shot five years ago, and the drone also happened to capture the scene of Qiao Lianqing entering your apartment! That brother is also a good person. This is the old footage he edited, and he gave it to me for free. The whole process just took some time to find the video."
"Hahaha...Brother Ye, this is such a dramatic turn of events! If there is a goddess of luck in the world, it must be your relative!"
Ye Jingran was so excited that he took two deep breaths to calm himself down. He slowly loosened his grip on the phone, and a long-lost confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"The court will open tomorrow. We must give Qiao Lianqing a good surprise."
The fake goddess of luck Wei Lan sneezed and yelled at the system in her heart: Rubbish system, give me an explanation, how did my 10,000 points disappear!
System: The halo has taken effect, please experience it yourself.
Wei Lan: Rubbish system!
System: If the host is not satisfied with the effect of the first halo, he can purchase another one.
Wei Lan: Haha.
…
"So, Mr. Ye Jingran, the defendant, do you have any rebuttal evidence to the accusations made by the plaintiff, Chengguang Entertainment Group?"
"I have it." Ye Jingran looked at Chengguang's proud lawyers and his ex-girlfriend Qiao Lianqing, who was wearing sunglasses in the middle of the lawyers, and suddenly smiled: "I have new video evidence that proves that Qiao Lianqing was lying on the day she testified."
"Oh?" The judge said, "Please ask the defendant's lawyer to provide evidence."
A video was played in the trial court.
It was a high-altitude picture taken by a drone. Ye Jingran's defense lawyer was Fang Yuan, the chief lawyer of Wei's legal team. When the video reached a certain position, he pressed the pause button and pointed at the woman who appeared in the corner of the screen.
The video has good clarity and you can clearly see that the person in the picture is Qiao Lianqing.
According to her testimony at the court hearing that year, she entered Ye Jingran's apartment with a large amount of drugs that day, but in the video at this time, she was only carrying a small chain bag.
"Ms. Qiao was carrying this summer limited edition handbag from G." Fang Yuan took out the same bag as Qiao Lianqing in the video, and also took out a package that was 30 centimeters long and wide: "This is the size of the medicine without the bottle in the testimony at the time, after all the packages were unpacked."
The moment the video appeared, Qiao Lianqing's face turned pale rapidly, and it was completely pale in just three minutes.
Fang Yuan continued, "We can see that this amount of medicine cannot fit into Miss Qiao's small bag, which can barely hold a large cell phone... So, I would like to ask Miss Qiao, how did you bring the medicine to Mr. Ye?"
Stunned by the question, Qiao Lianqing subconsciously retorted: "I hid it in my clothes!"
As soon as she said this, Chengguang, the lawyer next to her, looked gloomy and quickly held her hand to stop her from continuing.
Fang Yuan smiled and said, "But in the testimony back then, Miss Qiao clearly stated that you put it in your bag and brought it to my lawyer's apartment."
Chengguang's lawyer's face was extremely gloomy. He stepped forward and changed the focus: "This video was provided by you. The shooting time can be changed through the machine settings. The possibility of later forgery cannot be ruled out!"
"There's one thing I forgot to mention." Fang Yuan was prepared and provided another video. Although this one had been edited, Qiao Lianqing could still be seen in the cut part. "This video was uploaded to D-site five years ago. It has the complete release date."
"Dong." The judge knocked down the gavel: "The evidence provided by the defendant is valid."
Everyone originally thought that the lawsuit would last a year or two, but with the solid evidence, it ended unexpectedly quickly.
Five days, from the opening of the court to Ye Jingran's complete victory, it only took five days.
Before this, no one would have thought that this would be the result!
As a result, all the marketing accounts, big and small, worked overtime collectively on the night the results came out, and only published an article the next day to sort out the cause and effect of the matter.
The Internet seemed to be filled with voices of slapping in the face.
Fans of Ye Jingran who had once stopped being fans cursed Chengguang while becoming his fans again. Those who followed the trend and slandered him went to his Weibo to apologize. Fans who had always believed in him finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel and were just about to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Wei Lan, who was previously accused by many netizens of signing Ye Jingran, had a unified comment on his Weibo:
"Director Wei, my face hurts, touch it."
