Chapter 38
Su Ning sat down and looked at the resume carefully again.
In addition to some characteristics similar to the protagonist in the original novel, there were other things that attracted Su Ning. For example, this girl's resume seemed impeccable. She graduated from a well-known film academy and ranked first in the art exam that year.
He wanted to search for Ji Xue on the Internet to see if he could find any information about her, so he reached for the mobile phone on the table with one hand, and the towel in his hand was taken by Shen Mingzheng.
"Let me help you dry your hair."
Su Ning: “Yeah.”
The pajamas provided at home were loose-fitting, and Su Ning felt hot, so he unbuttoned two buttons, leaving the back of his neck exposed.
Young Master Su was raised in luxury, his skin was very fair and delicate, his fingers slipped across his skin and felt soft, his hair was also soft, Shen Mingzheng looked down, the warm yellow light from the living room floor lamp shone on the side of his face, making his features look even more delicate.
Even though he has the same facial features as Su Ning in his previous life, his expression and temperament are completely different.
Therefore, Mr. Shen, who is always the boss outside, sometimes works diligently as a hair dryer for others, even though he knows there is a wall-mounted hair dryer in the house and he doesn't need to do it himself.
But he was happy to.
At this time, Su Ning, who had received the phone, also received a message from Director Yao. The other party told him that the girl should have changed her phone number, and she had not been found yet, but some new information had been found and sent to him at this time.
Ji Xue is from Haicheng. The media took several pictures of her during the art exam. In addition to ranking first in the art exam that year, her academic performance was also very impressive. Her college entrance exam score was close to 600 points. She was also on the hot search list for a while. Su Ning looked at those pictures and found that they were all of her without makeup during her student days. She had a very beautiful and recognizable face.
In other words, the protagonist's face.
But Director Yao herself couldn't explain the details of the third-party scandal that led to her being banned.
She specially asked someone to search for some information and found that a lot of the information on the Internet had been cleared. That was three years ago. Nowadays, information on the Internet is updated too quickly, and many people have forgotten it, or simply don't remember it. After all, she was just a little star who hadn't made her debut yet. She had been in the dark for three years, and no one remembered her.
"After looking around, I still think that she was slandered by someone about the third party," Director Yao said. "She graduated from such a good film school and signed with Guangying Entertainment, which was at its peak at the time. She has already been cast in a TV series. I know what kind of person Mr. Su is. He would never force her to do anything. A young girl with a promising future, no normal person would ruin her own future."
After reading it carefully, Su Ning also found it strange.
The rules for banning due to scandals have always been confusing in the industry. Sang Le was caught on camera, but he was not banned. It was just Shen Huai who was gone. He knew there was no hope and chose to withdraw from the competition. There was no need for Su Ning to bother with a small figure like him who was being commanded, so he just let him be.
But Ji Xue's ban was not even able to stop Lao Suzong, so she could only be hidden. This is indeed not right. From this perspective, it is also in line with the configuration of the miserable and pitiful protagonist who was suppressed in the original book.
When Su Ning came into the book, he didn't see the protagonist's gender clearly. If it was a girl, it would be normal.
At this time, Shen Mingzheng, who was still standing behind him, spoke up: "I know about this."
Su Ning turned to look at him in surprise.
Shen Mingzheng had an extra source of information. After he recognized Ji Xue, he knew more than others and was not stingy in sharing it with Su Ning.
In his previous life, after Guangying Entertainment was acquired, Shen Huai did not accept all the people in the company. He kept those who he thought were useful and threw away all the others, including some agency contracts signed with people, which he threw away like garbage, and all traces were worn away. It is normal that Su Ning can't find anyone now.
Ji Xue is not the type of person who likes to talk about the past. Let alone Shen Mingzheng, most people don’t know that she has ever signed a contract with Guangying Entertainment.
However, many people later found out who the man was who had suppressed her "scandal" for a long time.
"Coincidentally, this matter is related to Allen, whom you just met," Shen Mingzheng put the towel aside, "The man is the mainstay of Jianfeng, Liao Yuansi."
Actor Liao Yuansi, 36 years old, has always been known as a righteous tough guy and a man who loves and protects his wife. His wife is a senior executive at Jianfeng, so one can imagine how good his resources and status are.
It is almost impossible for a celebrity to have no scandals at all. Even if they are really chaste, if paparazzi take some of their photos out of context while partying with friends, it can be hyped up for a while. Liao Yuansi has had some scandals too, but most of them were clarified quickly and his current image is still very positive.
But this is just a superficial phenomenon.
"The snow accumulation incident was a real unexpected disaster for her."
Although she was later called Medusa in the circle, Shen Mingzheng felt that it was more appropriate to call her "charming". This is the most impartial adjective for Ji Xue.
Most artists in the entertainment industry have some kind of charmer attribute, but Ji Xue is one of the best. Her looks and personality are attractive whenever she appears, but the saddest thing is that she has no background and no ability to protect herself in the circle.
Beauty became a double-edged sword at this time, so much so that Liao Yuansi was itching to take action after meeting her. She was already in great pain, and later when clues were caught and about to be exposed, she became the only victim.
Because Liao Yuansi had two big-budget movies to release at the time, if he, the leading actor, failed, all his investments would be gone, so the whole thing was blamed on Ji Xue and then quickly suppressed.
The girl, who was so young and had no social experience, regarded Liao Yuansi as her admired senior when she first met him, so that all the evidence was destroyed. In order to prevent her from speaking out, even the police were deployed.
However, the rumors from the association were not tenable in themselves, so when Jixue was later promoted by someone with a stronger background, she clarified the rumors at that time, but sadly, few people believed it.
She used this relationship that had once hurt her as a weapon and climbed back up step by step, so everyone thought that she relied on men to get to the top, and her relationship with Liao Yuansi was hard to say.
This was the snow that had very polarized reviews at the time.
Of course, Shen Mingzheng did not say what would happen next, he only mentioned Liao Yuansi.
After hearing this, Su Ning was silent for a long time.
Just like Director Yao, Ji Xue didn't need to destroy her own future at that time. There was something wrong.
What made Shen Mingzheng feel comfortable getting along with him was that Su Ning would not ask him how he knew about this, and he did not have to bother explaining it.
Looking at the photos of Liao Yuansi's wife and children released by major media on his phone, they look very happy. Su Ning doesn't believe that the original wife is so desperate to protect her own family. It's simply because there are too many investments tied to Actor Liao and he can't fail.
"In our circle, not everyone treats artists as human beings like you do to Li Chu," Shen Mingzheng said, "Take Jianfeng Management as an example. Artists are commodities, investments, vases placed on the stage, ratings and broadcasts that can sell ads, and valuable movie tickets, but they are not human beings."
So since the more valuable Liao Yuansi hurt Ji Xue, isn't it a choice that everyone knows who to save?
Shen Mingzheng has seen a lot of suffering among the ignorant men and women who entered this circle. He has been an experiencer and a witness.
There are some artistes who enjoy it and thrive in such an abyss, but is it right for them to be like non-humans?
Liang Xiaoliang is one of the better ones. He knows that if idols are suppressed too much, they will become commodities without personality and will not be attractive. To some extent, he is not a heartless businessman, so he has always been dissatisfied with Jianfeng's training method and does not like Allen. The discord between Guangying Entertainment and Jianfeng has a long history.
On the surface, the battle in Haicheng was a power struggle within the Shen family, but in reality, it was a difference in ideologies.
Su Ning said: "I have to find her."
He knew the old president's helplessness at that time, but the company had the responsibility to protect her.
If he hadn't gotten this resume, Shen Mingzheng wouldn't have thought of Ji Xue. It would take at least a year for her to emerge, and it would be hard to find someone now.
But there was a way out. The two of them saw the same place at the same time - "my teacher."
The "my teacher said" that Ji Xue wrote on her resume was most likely her university teacher at Haicheng Drama Academy, as the time matches.
Ji Xue disappeared and even changed her cell phone number after moving. Liao Yuansi was very popular at the time, so it was understandable that many fans would scold her, but if he was her mentor, they would have kept in touch.
"I'll ask someone to go to Haicheng Drama Academy to ask," Su Ning said, "Thank you for telling me this."
Shen Mingzheng: "No need to thank me."
He should thank Su Ning.
There are too many things like this in the entertainment industry, and many people are used to it. Besides, it has been so long that they are too lazy to care about it, but Su Ning will care.
Shen Mingzheng felt at ease knowing that he had someone like Su Ning by his side.
Even on their wedding night, the two slept separately, but they said goodnight to each other face to face before closing the door, and then Su Ning closed the door. Shen Mingzheng stood in front of the master bedroom door for a while, looked at the closed door diagonally opposite for a while, and then went to sleep.
This continued for the next few days.
Su Ning didn't have any honeymoon leave to speak of. He was always busy. In addition to company matters, he also had to rush to meet Glory's people early this morning.
By now, the work arranged by Orange Video has been almost completed, and the management and operation of the debut group will be taken over, so Su Ning has to bring the previously formed joint operation team over.
Currently, the general agent of this team is Su Ning himself, which shows how much he values this matter.
Glory, because of all kinds of public opinions during the broadcast, both good and bad, the group was given a nickname online within one day, the Gua Tuan.
Anyway, this name is quite suitable.
When Su Ning just got up this morning, his subordinates forwarded him the latest hot topic of "Gua Tuan". It is true that there are endless quarrels and endless gossips, and they never stop even after they have made their debut.
During the first few days after debut, fans were celebrating wildly and everyone seemed happy and harmonious, but after this period of time, conflicts were inevitable.
And it happened at this critical moment when Su Ning was about to take over.
The handover of the brokerage team was not hidden. Everyone knew that the group was run by Su Ning, but the C position Li Chu was from their company. Soon, the topic of "partiality" and "unfairness" of the brokerage team was brought up.
Li Chu's performance during the competition was very popular. After his debut, a big overseas brand approached him and asked him to collaborate with them by name. Nothing has been confirmed yet, but the rumor has been leaked.
The issue of "personal resources" is a sensitive point.
It is common for fans of only one member in a group to quarrel with each other. Everyone's fans will feel that their fan has been wronged, but this time it seems that there is a reason for it, especially the fans of the two members of Jianfeng, who jumped particularly high.
"You talk as if a business cooperation is of no concern to anyone. Our big company, Jianfeng, has already brought in resources, but the group has not let us go. Instead, they are paying special attention to pulling resources for 1. What's going on? Are they afraid that our small 5 and 6 will overtake them?"
"That's right, what good team resources can Guangying Entertainment attract? That idiot Su Ning is just lucky, what ability does he have?"
"I'm speechless. If they didn't suddenly organize a replacement match to grab attention from me, how could they not be in the top three? They were biased from the beginning."
"Let me go immediately, thank you."
There were many big fans speaking here, so the little fans also started to make a fuss. Li Chu's fans were not pushovers either, and other people's fans also felt something was not right. After all, Kirin from Top didn't say anything, so Jianfeng came to take the lead.
So there was another melee among the groups, and the fans of the group wanted to separate them, but the matter became more and more noisy.
Before Su Ning officially took over and did anything, the group's official Weibo account had already been @ed by angry fans demanding an apology.
But in fact, no one from Glory has left the team yet. The personal resources of C position Li Chu are not coming that quickly. Others are being contacted one after another, but they have not been discussed yet. Currently, they are all shooting for team resources.
Su Ning listened to the team members talking to him about this matter, and he roughly understood it. When he arrived at the scene, the resources on the Orange Video side had not been shot yet. As soon as he entered, he saw Li Chu with a stern face.
He thought that Li Chu was unhappy because of the things that happened on the Internet in the morning, but when he looked closely, it didn't seem like that. It was obvious that he was staring at him.
Li Chu's chubby face was stern but not fierce. He seemed to want to be serious with Su Ning, but he couldn't do it. So he pretended to be serious for a while, then couldn't help but ran over and asked, "Master, President Su, are you hiding something from me?"
Su Ning: "What's the matter?"
Li Chu immediately noticed the ring on his hand.
Su Ning was wearing a simple-designed plain ring today, which looked like a couple's ring at first glance, and he wore it on his ring finger.
Who doesn't know what this means?
Li Chu became even angrier, his face puffed up.
"You're already married, but Shen Mingzheng bought you such a plain and ugly ring? He's a big boss after all, right? I think he planned it all along and is very cunning and stingy. He really is..."
Su Ning understood, smiled, and couldn't help interrupting him: "Xiao Chu, I bought this."
Li Chu: ...
He was silent and confused for a while, then whispered, "Well, I mean, if you look closely, this ring is also quite simple and elegant, and it's different from the others."
Su Ning thought he was really cute and couldn't help laughing. She motioned for him to sit down next to her, and then explained seriously: "We got the marriage certificate yesterday. There are too many things to do, and you have been busy recently. I wanted to come here today just to tell you."
"Ming Zheng and I both know why this is happening. The company needs to grow, I need money, and he needs help. This is a business collaboration, so you don't have to think too much about it."
Li Chu: "Then why did you buy him a ring?"
And before, everyone called him Mr. Shen, but now he is called Ming Zheng.
"Since this is a collaboration, I can't treat him too badly," Su Ning thought for a moment, "Besides, he's a nice guy."
Although this ring is also a brand, it is naturally far less valuable than the ruby ring given by Shen Mingzheng. Su Ning was a little nervous when he gave it to her, but he did not expect the other party to be so surprised.
"This is the best wedding ring in my eyes," Shen Mingzheng said. "Su Ning, I am very happy that you have this intention."
It sounded really pure and natural, without any airs at all. At least Su Ning felt quite moved after listening to it.
But that wasn't what Li Chu heard.
Ha, Shen Mingzheng, I never realized before, what a vixen!
