After lunch, the crew took a break, and Yan Keyi's afternoon scenes were also quite early, so they didn't go back to the hotel to rest.
They found a shady spot on set, where Yan Keyi was studying the script and Jiang Ning was busy with his own things, creating a sense of tranquility and serenity.
But all of this was shattered when Xiang Yun walked over, holding her phone and looking nervous.
Jiang Ning has known Xiang Yun for some time now and knows her quite well.
Xiang Yun is quite capable and has a calm and composed personality. Initially, because it was her first time dealing with things in the entertainment industry, she was unfamiliar with some aspects, but as she handled more situations, she became more adept.
In most cases, she can handle it with ease.
The fact that they rushed over so nervously means something must have happened.
"What's wrong?"
Putting down what he was holding, Jiang Ning asked Xiang Yun what had happened.
“Sister Ning, someone is smearing Coco behind her back. We have contacted the studio that exposed the smear campaign, but their response is that they will not retract their inappropriate remarks.”
Since her debut, Yan Keyi has been subjected to all sorts of attacks.
After all, Hu Yiming's movies naturally generate buzz, and many artists who wanted a piece of the pie but didn't get one would try to smear Yan Keyi.
That period was when Yan Keyi received the most negative comments.
However, with the release of "The Long Spear" and the unanimous approval of Yan Keyi from her fellow cast members, her public image has been significantly improved.
In addition, Yan Keyi is indeed very beautiful.
Even those who are simply fans of Yan Keyi's looks wouldn't like their idol being constantly attacked online, so most of Yan Keyi's fans are quite combative.
However, the general public is unaware of the situation, and after seeing such malicious reports, their judgment of Yan Keyi will definitely be affected.
Yan Keyi's popularity is indeed steadily rising, but if she wants to reach the next level, she still needs to rely on casual viewers.
Moreover, being embroiled in such a scandal would be detrimental to Yan Keyi's future career. Therefore, they must clean up this mess.
This wasn't the first time Xiang Yun had dealt with something like this; she actually had experience.
But perhaps the person behind the attack on Yan Keyi is quite powerful; she couldn't even manage to pull some strings to get the news removed.
Moreover, their anti-black comments can't even be published, let alone spread to help refute rumors.
Xiang Yun came to Jiang Ning because she really had no other choice.
The marketing accounts posted some ambiguous things, without directly stating anything, but the general idea was that Yan Keyi met with her "godfather" and was caught red-handed.
Moreover, this "godfather" is married. Being listed among the rich is already a reputation-damaging matter, and the fact that this rich man is married and "becomes a mistress" naturally arouses public outrage.
If Jiang Ning hadn't known that the person she had dinner with last night was Jiang Hong, and if it weren't for her relationship with Yan Keyi, she would definitely have disliked this kind of person when she saw this news.
Others might not know the relationship between Jiang Ning and Jiang Hong, but those close to them know exactly what's going on.
Therefore, when refuting rumors, it is sufficient to simply state the relevant information.
Some people may not believe it, but you can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.
However, the basis for this refutation is definitely not the kind that is untenable.
The problem now is that they can't even post it, as if something has taken control of their accounts.
If these issues cannot be clarified at the very beginning of the escalation, it will be difficult to regain everyone's trust if clarified later.
This is also why Xiang Yun is anxious.
However, while they can block accounts related to their studio, Jiang Ning has more than just that.
Furthermore, because they were unaware of the relationship between Jiang Ning and Jiang Hong, they might not have been able to react immediately. However—
"Ningning, what's wrong?"
Jiang Ning rarely calls him, so Jiang Hong was quite surprised when he received the call.
Zhu Yiyun, who was standing nearby, snatched the phone away as soon as she heard it was Jiang Ning calling.
After briefly explaining the matter to his parents, Jiang Hong also said that he would take charge of the matter.
He just wanted to take his daughter out to eat, but he didn't expect it to turn into this.
In their eyes, Yan Keyi was always seen as smart, hardworking, and kind to Jiang Ning.
Their family has always had a relatively open-minded approach, and they always support their children when they want to do something.
They weren't unfamiliar with Yan Keyi's work; setting aside its artistic value, Jiang Hong, as a businessman, could certainly see Yan Keyi's commercial value.
But perhaps it is precisely because fame brings trouble that one is easily hindered by various things.
If Jiang Ning and Yan Keyi choose to handle it themselves, then Jiang Hong will let them do their own thing.
But since they've come seeking help, Jiang Hong obviously can't ignore them.
Jiang Hong quickly issued a statement on Weibo.
Although Jiang Hong himself doesn't have a particularly prominent reputation, the chairman of such a large corporation still attracts the attention of some people in the financial world.
In addition, Jiang Hong directly contacted his secretary to instruct the publicity department to help boost the buzz. The previously suppressed buzz quickly rose again.
The fact that two seemingly unrelated people appeared at the same time in the top trending topics attracted netizens who were online to follow the story.
If it were truly an impure relationship, Jiang Hong would never have spoken up for Yan Keyi so openly.
In addition, Zhu Yiyun couldn't bear to see her child suffer.
For Jiang Hong's wife to step forward and say that someone listed on the household registration book as an elder can be considered a "godfather" is indeed quite outrageous.
That one sentence completely reversed the tide.
If Jiang Hong had spoken out, it could have been interpreted as her supporting the minor celebrity she was keeping. But when the couple came forward together to deny the rumors, there was really nothing more to say.
As the wind gradually reversed direction, Jiang Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Jiang Ning's nervousness, Yan Keyi's heart started racing.
She still has scenes to film in the afternoon, and after this incident, she can't just leave.
But it was quite obvious that other people were looking at her differently.
Fortunately, with Jiang Ning around, things gradually improved before they got really bad.
