Chapter 424 Charity Night (Medium, 5552)
"Old women are just crazy. It's okay. I'll run Cosmo's annual celebration for you in a few months."
The white-haired old man patted Wang Mingliang's butt and laughed.
Wang Mingliang shuddered subconsciously, the disgust in his eyes flashed away, and he quickly returned to normal. He scratched his head with a slightly shy smile: "Thank you, Brother Liu, I don't know where I offended Sister Meng. Please say a few more words for me when the time comes."
The old man waved his hand dismissively. "We're all good friends, no need to talk about this. I'll call the driver and have him pick you up at the door."
The old man is able to be so successful in the circle because of his two magic weapons.
First, know how to play.
Second, be loyal and be a good person.
Or others think he is loyal.
Given this reputation, the old man is really nice to his "friends" to a certain extent.
Seeing Wang Mingliang leaving the venue in a dusty state, the old man still kept a playful smile on his face and laughed with several guests. However, when he saw Su Meng hurriedly preparing to leave the venue and go backstage with her assistant, the old man seized the opportunity and stopped Su Meng.
"Mengmeng, young people sometimes act without thinking. Liangzi, you've seen it too. He's a good kid. Give him a chance~"
The white-haired old man with a Yingzhou accent pulled Su Meng to a place where the camera couldn't capture her and laughed.
The charity night was about to begin. It was broadcast live on Yuezhou TV. The host Zhou Shao had already come on stage to warm up the audience. Su Meng was anxious to go backstage, so she said a few words casually and wanted to go backstage quickly.
But the old man was smarter than a monkey and just kept holding her with a smile on his face, refusing to let her go. Su Meng had no choice but to sigh, "Old Liu, we've known each other for so many years. You know, I'm not that stingy."
The old man thought to himself, I don’t believe you at all. If you are not stingy, who is?
The old man was about to speak when Su Meng continued, "However, for the sake of our relationship, I have to say a few more words. When you go back, remember to tell your children that it's okay to act without thinking, but don't be too picky about everything. At least you have to know who can be flirted with and who can't, especially at this time. That's all I have to say. Old Liu, I really have to go backstage."
The old man's heart tightened. Although he still had a playful smile on his face, his eyes were more serious. "Mengmeng, give me some more?"
Su Meng looked around: "Back then, He Feng was more famous than him, right? Isn't it just a matter of saying it and then it's over?"
The old man gasped.
He Feng was a rising star many years ago. He was very popular at that time and starred in many hit dramas. There was no such thing as traffic in those days, but in fact, He Feng was the top star at that time.
Maybe He Feng was a little inflated at the time. When filming a costume drama, he wanted to collude with the heroine of the drama. When filming the first meeting between the hero and heroine and the shot of the hero catching the heroine who was knocked away by a frightened horse, his hands were a little dishonest.
But he didn't know that the heroine was already taken.
As a result, the next day, a group of people rushed into the crew and beat He Feng up. It was said that all five fingers on one hand were shattered.
Before the drama was finished, this person completely disappeared from the circle, as if there had never been such a person in the entertainment industry. Even the TV series that had been half-filmed was cancelled, which made the investors at the time suffer a heavy loss.
"Who specifically?" For the first time, the old man put away his playful smile.
Anyone who can make the woman in front of him so fearful cannot be from the circle.
Last year, Tang Yan offended her and was banned by her. In order to apologize to her, he drank so much that he had gastric bleeding and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Only then did he barely get through.
The old man complained in his heart that this woman was so ruthless in her actions. If she fell into poverty in the future, no one would be able to speak up for her. Not kicking her when she was down would be considered repaying kindness for evil.
However, there are too many people like her in the entertainment industry, she just managed to get to the top.
Su Meng did have a good relationship with the old man. After hesitating for a moment, she glanced in Fang Yu's direction without leaving any trace and raised her chin slightly.
"I stopped him quickly, and he didn't say anything. Now no one knows the temper of this newly promoted nobleman. If he were in the hands of those people before, your child would not be able to make a name for himself for at least three years."
"Did you see anyone dare to set their sights on Jiang Nong a few years ago? Are there still people who dared to set their sights on her now?"
"And this guy has much more power than the previous ones. Don't forget, he also has Yuzu Technology in his hands."
"Okay, Lao Liu, I really have to go backstage."
Su Meng saw her assistant standing beside her, pointing at the watch on her wrist, repeatedly indicating that there was no time left, and hurried backstage.
The old man's eyes flickered. After a brief thought, he made a phone call and called his assistant over. "Two things. First, I need to go to OT now. I've already told Aunt Thirteen that you should settle the bill for Bazaar's after-party tonight."
"Secondly," the old man hesitated, "go back and help Wang Mingliang pack up his things so he can move out today."
——
"All units, get ready. All units, get ready. When Sister Hong starts singing the second chorus, the screen will open and all the teachers will appear at the same time. Countdown begins. Get ready. Everyone, get ready. Everyone, get ready."
The on-site director notified all the waiting stars through the microphone backstage.
The standing positions were decided long ago. Da Mimi's position was on Su Meng's right, which was the absolute C position. To her right were Da Baobei and Lu Zhiguang and his wife, and to Lu Zhiguang's right was Liu Feifei.
Before the news of Jiaxing and CAA's joint venture and Da Mimi's appointment as a director of CAA's Dazhou company came out, Su Meng's original ranking had Lv Zhiguang on her right, followed by Da Baobei and Da Mimi, and Liu Feifei on Da Mimi's right.
If her subordinates reminded her: Da Mimi doesn't want to stand with Liu Feifei.
Su Meng would definitely roll her eyes. "Female celebrities are always troublesome. Are you afraid of being outdone by Liu Feifei? Are others not afraid? Why don't you go to the second row?"
Besides, group photos are meant to generate buzz. If you don’t stand together and tear each other apart, where will the buzz come from?
After the news from CAA came out, Su Meng slammed the table at her subordinates: The two female stars don’t get along with each other, what’s the point of putting them together?
Lü Zhiguang and Dabaobei are a couple, Dabaobei and Da Mimi are best friends, and Lü Zhiguang and Liu Feifei have also worked together on a Jin Yong drama. Why not arrange the positions in the order of Da Mimi, Dabaobei, Lü Zhiguang, and Liu Feifei? That way, no one would object, and it would still create the gimmick of a "reunion of the heroes." Are you guys being professional?
The editors and assistants under her can only take the initiative to take the blame, saying that it was Sister Meng who was thoughtful and that they need to rely on Sister Meng for more guidance.
As a shareholder of Zhou Yi, Lu Zhiguang has the support of others behind him, and his status in the circle has risen in recent years. Although he didn't say anything about Da Mimi taking his C position, he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Brother Zhiguang, come here, I'll stand next to Dabaobei."
Lu Zhiguang had just stood up and was adjusting his collar when he heard Da Mimi on his left hand say something to him, and he was stunned.
Ouch? What does that mean? Are you giving up the center position?
Oh, I guess that's just polite.
Lu Zhiguang smiled a smile he had practiced for more than ten years and stopped Da Mimi: "No, no."
"Hey, just come over when I told you to. Why are you hesitating? Big baby, switch seats with Brother Zhiguang." Da Mimi pulled Lu Zhiguang to her seat, and put Da Baobei in Lu Zhiguang's seat. She stood to the right of Da Baobei, and then smiled at Liu Feifei on the right.
Everyone, including Liu Feifei, was stunned.
What the hell is Da Mimi doing?
Liu Feifei glanced at Da Mimi, but saw that Da Mimi was also looking at her.
Is this... a declaration of war?
A flash of enlightenment flashed through Liu Feifei's mind, and then she felt it was a little ridiculous.
What did I do to you? Why do you have to compete with me?
Liu Feifei turned her head indifferently and no longer looked at Da Mimi.
The celebrities who were watching the show looked at Liu Feifei, then at Da Mimi, and then at Da Baobei. The celebrities who could stand here had a lot of experience in quarreling, so they understood it all at once and felt "Wow" in their hearts.
Many people lost control of their facial expressions and looked at each other, saying nothing.
The hearts of people in our entertainment industry are so fucking dark.
In the past, Da Mimi was two or three centimeters shorter than Liu Feifei, her skin was not as white or thin as Liu Feifei, her figure was not as good as Liu Feifei, and her temperament was even more difficult to describe compared with Liu Feifei. The only thing that was better than Liu Feifei was that she had a big waist, thin waist and straight legs.
But you can't take it off on stage, right?
As for Liu Feifei, her only shortcoming before was that her teeth were exposed when she smiled.
Liu Feifei has done a good job in body management in the first half of the year and currently seems to be at her peak.
Therefore, in previous photos, Da Mimi would generally avoid being in the same frame with Liu Feifei. Whenever she and Liu Feifei were in the same frame and were close to each other, she would be mocked by a large number of Liu Feifei's fans as looking like a maid or a wet nurse.
But now, although Da Mimi's height has not changed and she is still recognizable as Da Mimi, her skin, facial condition, body management... even her temperament, it's like she has become a different person.
If you analyze it carefully, the skin is whiter, the face is more natural, and the figure is more harmonious. There are no other major changes.
But it looks better than before.
If she wasn't standing with Liu Feifei, at most people would think that Da Mimi was in good shape, but now that the two of them were standing together, it was immediately apparent.
It seems that Da Mimi didn’t lose this time?
Maybe she still loses a little, after all, Liu Feifei is born with a filter.
However, there are also many fans of Da Mimi, and the filters are not low.
Let’s wait for the group photo to come out and see the finished film.
Regardless of winning or losing, Da Mimi will definitely post the original picture this time.
She could definitely do it!
Great~ I can watch the first-line female stars fight again~
But this time, the one who seems to be hurt the most is... Big Baby?
The other stars were looking at each other with strange expressions, and the displeasure on Big Baby's face was almost impossible to conceal.
Okay, Da Mimi, you actually backstabbed me!
Big Baby's face is absolutely beautiful in photos. Her small head and face look great in photos. But today, in order to maintain her image as a pregnant woman, she could only choose a loose-fitting dress and didn't dare to put on too much makeup.
Originally, I wanted to huddle together with Da Mimi for warmth. When taking a group photo, the two of them held hands and squatted down to avoid direct comparison with Liu Feifei. The C position was not lost, killing two birds with one stone.
But now, Da Mimi, you actually play this trick!
Now, haven’t I become an aunt’s maid?
Big Baby rolled his eyes in anger.
"Baby, are you okay?" Da Mimi pretended to be concerned. "Is the fetus moving? You can't stand for long now. Brother Zhiguang, you have to hold on to the baby when you go down the stairs, so you don't fall."
Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene could hardly control their expressions, and the eyes of the men from the Running Man team at the back almost popped out of their heads.
They have a good relationship with both female stars, have collaborated with them many times, and have also made some investments together.
What a bitch! How can you be so bitchy! ?
Aren’t you and Big Baby besties?
Others may not know, but don’t you know what’s going on with your big baby’s belly?
Oh, by the way, you love backstabbing your bestie.
Repa was blinking in the last row, not understanding anything at all. She thought Da Mimi and Da Baobei were very close sisters.
Wang Yi beside her had an unhappy look on his face.
The top female stars in the front row are scheming against each other, and the second-tier stars behind them are also fighting openly and secretly.
After all, no one wants to be someone else's stepping stone.
Hearing Da Mi Mi's words, Da Bao Bei smiled wryly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that my period is coming and my back hurts a little."
Da Mimi kept smiling: "You need to pay attention to rest at this time. When your body is heavy, the burden on your back is greater. So, you should play less games and rest more."
"You play games until midnight, and it's all visible in your game logs. If someone finds out, there'll be gossip."
"Brother Zhiguang, you have to take better care of your baby, am I right, Brother Zhiguang?"
Lu Zhiguang didn't understand what was going on, so he smiled and nodded, "Yes, I told her to play less."
Da Mimi looked at Da Baobei with a smile.
Big Baby's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately realized that Big Mimi was calling her.
No wonder he had to do this.
Big Baby couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
But why?
What's your business? Everyone makes a living based on their own abilities. How can you eat but I can't?
Besides, I haven’t eaten it yet.
Liu Feifei watched coldly, her eyelids slightly drooping.
"Attention, teachers, attention, fifteen seconds left, please keep your positions..."
At this time, Wei Hong on the stage had already started singing the second part. All the stars took a deep breath, checked their clothes again, put on a smile facing the public, and prepared to go on stage.
“I’ve had that too and I understand it all~~~~”
Wei Hong, who has the biggest resonance in the Zhouyu music scene, finished singing the last verse of the main song. The big screen behind her slowly opened in the middle, and nearly forty stars slowly walked down the steps from behind the big screen.
Liu Feifei walked down with the main group with a faint smile on her face.
When the female stars walked down the steps in front of the big screen, they were basically in pairs holding hands. Those who had husbands held their husbands, and those who didn't hold the hands of the female star next to them.
Liu Feifei looked calm and independent, and was about to walk down, but she found that Da Mimi took the initiative to extend her hand to her with a condescending expression of victory.
Liu Feifei took a deep breath, shook hands with Da Mimi, and walked down together, standing behind Wei Hong who was still singing loudly.
You think you're a winner now? Isn't that a little premature?
After Wei Hong finished her song, Su Meng took a group selfie with all the stars, which was basically a replica of the MET Gala, with the gimmick of having the highest star concentration in history.
Da Mimi secretly gave Liu Feifei a provocative look, then put her arm around Liu Feifei and posed intimately with her.
Dabaobei cursed in her heart, but she reacted quickly. She quickly hugged Lu Zhiguang and hid in Lu Zhiguang's arms, using Lu Zhiguang to separate herself from the two women, while she pouting her lips and kissed Lu Zhiguang's face.
After taking a lot of photos, thirty or forty stars walked off the stage and returned to their tables.
There are hundreds of celebrities from the entertainment industry here today, but less than one-tenth of them are qualified to go on stage, and a large number of celebrities are still sitting in the audience.
Da Mimi returned to her table, which was mostly filled with film and television companies and investors. Her seat was right next to Xiong Xiaoge from IDG.
According to Da Mimi's status and relationship with Su Meng, if Jiaxing had not invested in CAA Dazhou, she should have been at the same table with Liu Feifei.
Da Mimi raised her head, took a seat with a smile, greeted Xiong Xiaoge and several other big investors, and then glanced at the table where Liu Feifei, Qingchuan and Running Man were sitting.
I'm on a different level now than you guys~
As soon as Da Mimi's eyes moved over, her pupils couldn't help but narrow. Where was Liu Feifei?
Why didn't she sit at this table? Why did Lu Han take her place?
What is she doing walking back?
Wait, could it be...
——
Fang Yu was sitting in the VIP mirror-free seat and was laughing.
With his hearing ability, even if he was in the camera-free seat dozens of meters away from the backstage, he could still hear the private conversations of the stars backstage as long as he wanted to.
Da Mimi is really good at palace fighting.
The palace fighting drama was not performed in vain. Ruoxi next to Liu Feifei was not so good. No wonder so many resources were snatched away by Da Mimi.
When Fang Yu entered the venue, someone notified Su Meng. After receiving the news, Su Meng immediately walked along the wall of the venue and came to the VIP seat without a camera to greet Fang Yu.
After they exchanged a few pleasantries, Fang Yu noticed Wang Mingliang running over to flirt with her.
Fang Yu didn't care about this level of flirting at all. This was just the beginning. Fang Yu had no habit of fantasizing about being cuckolded.
Besides, they are just marathon running friends, not even boyfriend and girlfriend. Even if Repa gets a boyfriend, he will sincerely bless her.
But when Wang Mingliang held Repa's hand tightly and Repa looked embarrassed, Fang Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
After asking Youzi to check Wang Mingliang's information, wow, it turns out that this guy is secretly married and has an old man supporting him behind the scenes.
He casually said to Su Meng, "The quality of the stars at the Bazaar Charity Night seems to need improvement." Su Meng's face changed, and she immediately ran over to deal with Wang Mingliang, then called the old man and asked him to take Wang Mingliang away.
In fact, Fang Yu didn't pay any attention to the subsequent intrigues between Wang Mingliang, the old man, and Su Meng. He didn't care whether the old man and Wang Mingliang cut ties or not, and he had no intention of dealing with Wang Mingliang.
After all, the other party didn't do anything truly evil, at most he was in a chaotic neutral state.
But this is the real world. A glance from the superior may make the people below guess for a long time and be scared to death, but in fact the other person may just have an eyelash fallen into his eye.
After watching the female stars secretly quarreling, Fang Yu used his mental power to detect it.
Huh? The atmosphere today seems a bit lackluster. Wasn't this year's charity gala the largest ever? There were plenty of people, but not many with aspirations or faith. Could it be that the ideology and moral standards of the Great Zhou celebrities are so much higher than those of Hollywood?
The intensity of this desire and belief is probably not even comparable to that of Hollywood, let alone Bollywood.
You are wrong. Not only women are dangerous in Bharat, but even car exhaust pipes are dangerous. The concentration of desire and belief in Bollywood is definitely higher than that in Hollywood.
Yes! Maybe you should visit Bharat someday? It's a place with plenty of desire and a large population, perfect for gathering desire and faith, and harvesting spirituality.
However, in this shabby place, people don't use coffins, body bags, or even shrouds when they die. They are just thrown into the river or burned directly. There is no way to collect their spirits.
No, this is the country with the largest population in the future. We must find a way to harvest their spirituality, otherwise we will suffer a great loss.
Fang Yu's mental power circled around the field twice, and he understood what was going on.
It turns out that he was frightened by the recent changes. No wonder.
Since he couldn't collect much Desire Faith, Fang Yu had no interest in staying too long. If the show was boring, he would leave soon.
But before he could lift his butt, he saw Liu Feifei, whose fair skin was highlighted by a light green and light pink dress, actually walked over from the table in front of the stage and sat at table 27, which was closest to him.
????? ?????
It seems there is something fishy.
