Chapter 151 Jinjiang Debut
Seeing the microphone connection request sent by Bai Mian on the screen, Qi Zian was stunned for a moment, and immediately pretended not to see it and blocked the message. After all, the play he wanted to perform had already been completed, and he didn't want anyone to interfere at this time.
However, Qi Zian's little action was quickly caught by his sharp fans, and a lot of questioning voices instantly flooded into the barrage of his live broadcast room.
[Who is this account? Why would they suddenly want to connect with Zian? 】
[I know. I just watched the whole scene. This is the master who told Qi Zian's fortune. Now he is probably here to ask for punishment.]
[Why did Zian hang up? He should have connected the microphone and confronted her head-on. All of this was caused by her! 】
[Yes, don't worry, Zi'an, just answer the call, we will help you cyberbully her]
[If you don’t dare to answer, you are a coward, a coward! 】
At this time, Bai Mian sent a second request for a live broadcast. Qi Zian looked at the screen in embarrassment. If he didn't accept it this time, everyone would be able to see that he had something to hide. In order to calm public opinion, he gritted his teeth and accepted Bai Mian's live broadcast.
"Hello?" Qi Zian greeted Bai Mian weakly.
Bai Mian smiled slightly: "Big star, you should know me, right?"
This afternoon, when Bai Mian was checking the assistant's pulse, Qi Zian didn't get out of the car, but he saw Bai Mian through the car window. He knew in his heart that Bai Mian was probably here to call him to task, but in front of so many people, he could only be tough:
"Oh, of course I remember, Master Bai. I respectfully called you Master, but you ended up putting me in this situation. It was because I believed what you said that I overreacted at the fan meeting. You lied to me and said someone would throw sulfuric acid, but what happened? Where is the sulfuric acid? You are just exaggerating!"
Bai Mian: "The person who threw the sulfuric acid has been caught by the police in advance and is now in the police station. Since you haven't left Qingshui Town yet, why don't you go and see it for yourself? But I don't think you care whether it's true or not. What you need right now is a scapegoat. You said that everything is my fault. Did I instruct you to push your fans out when you were in danger?"
After Bai Mian finished speaking, Qi Zian's face changed a little. He didn't expect that the person who threw sulfuric acid actually existed. In this way, Bai Mian really calculated it correctly. He moved his lips but didn't speak for a while, fearing that Bai Mian would say something more disadvantageous to him.
But his fans couldn't help it, and they ran to Bai Mian's live broadcast room and started cursing. They typed out long essays and frantically defended their protagonist. Bai Mian's live broadcast room was almost flooded with them.
Bai Mian did not argue with these people, but said calmly: "You just said that we can ignore Qi Zian's character for his talent, but what if his talent is fake? Or, what if these talents never belonged to him?"
After Bai Mian finished speaking, the comments fell silent for a moment. The audience had no idea what Bai Mian meant. Qi Zian, on the other hand, reacted quickly. He seemed to realize something and raised his hand to hang up the call, but Bai Mian used hypnosis to control his body, making him freeze in place and unable to move.
The staff member next to Qi Zian came forward and tried to help him hang up the call, but was also controlled by Bai Mian.
Bai Mian continued, "Qi Zian claims to be an original comedian and that he writes every show himself. But he's lying. All his works are written by his girlfriend, and - his girlfriend is in this room."
After Bai Mian finished speaking, the comments were filled with surprise. It was no wonder they were surprised. Apart from Qi Zian, there were only a few male staff members in the room. One staff member was hypnotized by Bai Mian, and a few others were afraid of Bai Mian's power and did not dare to step forward, hiding in the corner of the room.
[Did I hear correctly? Qi Zian’s girlfriend is in this room? 】
[Uh, these guys are so big and strong, it’s hard to tell who is the woman…]
[Master, you don’t mean that Qi Zian’s partner is a man, right? 】
A variety of speculations floated across the barrage, and Bai Mian said leisurely: "Why don't you come out? This may be your chance to change your fate."
After Bai Mian finished speaking, the camera in Qi Zian's live broadcast room flipped and a plain-looking woman appeared on the screen. Everyone suddenly realized:
[Oh, it turns out there is another person behind the camera! 】
[Right, how could I have forgotten this? Qi Zian apologized to the phone, and the camera had to be pointed at his face, so there must have been someone in front of him holding a phone to take the photo.]
[Oh my god, this girlfriend is so... hard to describe. I thought Qi Zian’s girlfriend must be a beauty.]
[If someone with this kind of looks can be his girlfriend, then I can too! 】
The barrage was full of criticisms against the girlfriend. It was not surprising that a young handsome star like Qi Zian had a girlfriend, but the appearance of this woman was beyond everyone's expectations. She looked like an ordinary passerby, the kind that you couldn't find her if you threw her into a crowd. Seeing the attacks from the barrage, the woman's cheeks turned red, she lowered her head, and dared not face the camera anymore.
Bai Mian introduced everyone: "Her name is Zhu Yin. Every work, every character, and every line of Qi Zian that you have seen is from her hand. The talent that you admire is actually her talent."
After hearing what Bai Mian said, Zhu Yin smiled shyly at the camera, as a greeting to everyone. After being in the industry for so long, this was her first time appearing in the public eye.
The comments became crazy and everyone expressed that they couldn't accept it.
[Words are not enough, so if you say she wrote it, does that mean she wrote it? Did she sign it? 】
[Yes, every time a comedy is performed, the screenwriter writes Qi Zian's name. I have never heard of this woman! 】
[Zi'an, why are you standing there motionless? Zi'an, say something! 】
Qi Zian was controlled by hypnosis, unable to move or speak, and could only blink frantically. Seeing his strange behavior, Zhu Yin gently stepped forward and took his hand, saying considerately: "Okay, don't worry, I will help you deal with this matter."
Zhu Yin stood in front of the camera and said with courage: "Everyone has misunderstood. What the master said is wrong. I don't have any talent. All my past works were created by Qi Zian. I am not his girlfriend. I am just an ordinary staff member of his."
After Zhu Yin finished speaking, the crazy comments calmed down. The fans who criticized Zhu Yin turned to mock Bai Mian. Xia Mang couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "What's wrong with you? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog? Master Bai was kind enough to help you clear your name, but you took the initiative to give up the fruits of your labor. Are you reluctant to see your beloved boyfriend fail? You are such a delicate wife!"
Zhu Yin's face turned red, and she didn't say a word. It was obvious that she was not good at lying, and she didn't want to quarrel with Xia Mang. She reached out her hand to hang up the microphone. Bai Mian said, "She did this because she thought that as long as she swallowed her anger and was the woman behind Qi Zian, Qi Zian would marry her. But she didn't know that Qi Zian was already preparing to dump her."
Zhu Yin immediately stopped what he was doing and retorted, "You're talking nonsense. He wouldn't do this to me!"
Bai Mian didn't say much, just looked back and said, "Go look in his briefcase, you will thank me."
Zhu Yin put his cell phone aside and opened Qi Zian's briefcase with half belief and half doubt. Qi Zian would bring a briefcase with him every time he went out, which contained his itinerary and various important contracts. For safety reasons, this briefcase was always placed on his bedside. Zhu Yin opened the briefcase, poured out a pile of densely packed documents from it, and then began to search through them one by one.
Because they were too far away, the words on the documents could not be seen clearly in the live broadcast room. No one knew what Zhu Yin had found. She read it again and again and burst into tears. The comments were all guessing. Zhu Yin walked up with the documents and threw them directly into Qi Zian's arms: "Explain to me, what's going on?"
The documents were scattered on the table. The audience finally saw clearly that it was a notice of contract termination, and the name on the notice was Zhu Yin. Zhu Yin collapsed and shouted at Qi Zian:
"You're going to fire me? Why didn't you ever tell me?"
Bai Mian snapped his fingers and lifted the hypnosis on Qi Zian. Qi Zian was finally able to move freely. His first reaction was to snatch the document from Zhu Yin's hand, but Zhu Yin had already read the document, so it was useless even if he snatched it away. So Qi Zian had to carefully coax Zhu Yin:
"Xiao Zhu, don't get excited yet. This is a normal personnel change in the company. It will take effect at the end of the year. We can talk about it after we get back."
Zhu Yin said sadly, "Don't call me that! I'm not your employee, I'm your girlfriend! I've been helping you silently in the company all this time. I've written scripts for you for so many years, and you promised to marry me and give me shares in the company, but in the end you want to fire me?"
Qi Zian smiled awkwardly and thought of a solution on the spur of the moment: "Haha, what are you talking about? We have always had a normal superior-subordinate relationship. Xiao Zhu, I think you have been under too much mental pressure recently and are hallucinating?"
Zhu Yin looked at Qi Zian in disbelief: "You are such a heartless person, how could you say such a thing? I know, because you are a handsome guy, you think I am ugly, and you are in the rising period of your career, so we can't be public, I can only be your secret lover, I endured it again and again, now things have become like this, you still don't acknowledge me?"
Qi Zian looked at the camera again and wanted to turn off the live broadcast, but Zhu Yin got the phone before him and pointed the camera at him, saying angrily, "Well, since you turned your back on me, don't blame me. While there are so many people here today, I want to expose your ugly face as a scumbag! You've been pursuing me since we met on the set three years ago. At that time, you were just an unknown little actor, and I was a budding screenwriter. Everyone praised me for my comedy writing skills."
"I thought you really liked me, so I agreed to your pursuit, but I didn't expect that you were just attracted to my work! After we got together, you started to sneak a peek at my unpublished manuscripts, and you also said that you hoped that these manuscripts could be published under your name, and you would be their creator in the future. In order to help you develop your career, I agreed, and today this is how you repay me?"
"After we got together, I only wrote for you, and I didn't ask for any compensation. I just hoped that you could make a name for yourself, and you didn't disappoint me. You won first place in the original comedy contest last year, and you have become a little famous since then. In that contest, you kept saying that you wrote all the scripts. You really have no shame!"
"Because I helped you for the past three years, I didn't develop myself at all. I put my own career on hold and worked as your hottie for three years, but this is the outcome. It's ridiculous! It's all because I was too in love in the past. But just now, that notice completely shattered my love brain. It was not only a dismissal notice, but also a non-compete agreement!"
"The additional clause in the contract says that after I leave your company, I will never be allowed to work in any literary-related industry. Are you trying to completely ban me from this field? Qi Zian, you know that writing is my only skill. Even if you want to get rid of me, isn't that too cruel?"
"Come on, don't hide, why are you hiding? Let the camera take a good look at your face, I want to let all your little fans see what kind of person the 'sincere' and 'talented' big brother they like is! Qi Zian, I can make you gain all this, but I can also make you lose all this. Let's make it clear today, I want to take back what belongs to me!"
After that, Zhu Yin faced the camera and said word by word: "Dear audience, I hereby declare that all the comedy performances of Qi Zian that you have seen were created by me. He deprived me of my signature and took away my credit."
Although there were still a lot of slander and abuse in the barrage this time, Zhu Yin was not afraid.
Qi Zian's face turned pale, but he still retained the last bit of rationality. He forced himself to say, "You said that these things were all created by you, but what evidence do you have? You can't even produce any evidence. This is a complete slander!"
Zhu Yin did not hesitate and immediately replied: "The evidence is in the footage of the original comedy contest finals. You can go and see for yourself. The draft paper that Qi Zian took out was all written in my handwriting."
Netizens immediately followed her instructions and found Qi Zian holding out a thick stack of draft paper in the footage. At this time, he had already won the championship and was showing the camera how hard it had been to get to this point. He shook the thick stack of draft paper and said with a bit of pride on his face:
"This championship is really hard-earned. I have stayed up all night to get it. Look, these are the drafts of the scripts I wrote."
The camera moved to the draft paper, and the words on the paper were strong and powerful. Netizens also dug out many other details in the video.
[Look, Zhu Yin’s face flashed across the camera just now. She had indeed been with Qi Zian for a long time.]
[Oh, yes, Qi Zian has written on a variety show. His handwriting is like that of an elementary school student. The words on this paper are not his at all! 】
[Qi Zian turned out to be this kind of person. In the finals, many people voted for him because of his strong originality. It turns out that he didn't write the script at all. He is a thief and a liar! 】
[Heh - bah - give the finals championship back! 】
[Haha, the man is really good at stealing the credit, but luckily the woman still has a trick up her sleeve and left evidence in the behind-the-scenes footage. It seems that this woman is not completely stupid...]
[More than that, I now feel pity for Miss Zhu Yin. She is so talented, but she was deceived. She is so strong and miserable. I want to become her fan! 】
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Qi Zian waved behind him, and all the staff rushed towards Zhu Yin at once.
