Chapter 88: The Movie Star's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (39)
Wen Wan chattered on and on about the film crew to Gu Yiqin, who listened patiently.
After finishing the meal, Gu Yiqin didn't leave but stayed next to Director Yuan.
Wen Wan looked at Gu Yiqin, her heart filled with sweetness. His performance this time was outstanding; he passed on the second try.
Director Yuan jokingly said to Gu Yiqin, "Why don't you come to the set every day and sit for a while? Maybe our production schedule will speed up a lot."
Gu Yiqin: "Director Yuan, please stop joking."
"What have you been busy with lately? Are you planning to come back to filming?" Director Yuan still felt it was a pity. After all, as a director, it's hard to see promising talents not acting.
"We'll hold off on filming for now."
When Director Yuan heard Gu Yiqin's indirect refusal to completely rule out the possibility of filming in the future, he asked, "Is there still a chance we could film it later?"
"If I meet the right person, maybe." Gu Yiqin originally thought he would never think about acting again, but seeing how A-Yuan acted, he thought about making a movie with her, but that's something for later.
Director Yuan nodded. "It's good that you still have ideas. Young people shouldn't be too inexperienced."
Gu Yiqin laughed and said, "Director Yuan, I'm over thirty, how can I still be considered a young man?"
Director Yuan laughed, "I think you look exactly like the person I was when I cast you in the movie. What do fans call that? An ageless male god, right?"
Gu Yiqin: "..."
...
Gu Yiqin's appearance caused a stir on set. Most importantly, although Director Yuan said that Gu Yiqin came to visit his old friend, why did he bring food to the female lead of the crew every day and hold hands with her all the time? They're not blind.
This was clearly for Wen Wan, and some people remembered the rumors between the two, so it seems that these rumors were more than just rumors.
However, the crew and actors in Director Yuan's production team are quite tight-lipped and don't say anything out of turn. Even their discussions on set are within normal limits.
However, although the atmosphere on set was harmonious, outside the set, Zhao Hanjiao was furious about losing her role. A newcomer who had only been with the company for a short time had actually taken her role.
"That Chen Jie, when I was working for him, I didn't see him get me any good resources. How come he changed as soon as Wen Wan came? All he offers are good opportunities, and he became popular so quickly. He was definitely targeting me. He even talked about being down-to-earth, but now he's just found a sugar daddy for Wen Wan."
Li Congfang, Zhao Hanjiao's agent, said, "You can say these things to me, but don't say them outside. Wen Wan is able to hook up with President Gu on one hand and also get on the good side of Qinghe Investment Company on the other. You should avoid her in the future."
"Impossible!!!" Zhao Hanjiao exclaimed shrilly, "What right does she have?"
Li Congfang looked at Zhao Hanjiao, this artist really disappointed her, she couldn't even keep her temper in check, "Then what are you going to do? If you had been able to get on the good side of Xiao Yunqi of the Xiao family back then, you wouldn't have had your resources snatched away by Wen Wan."
Zhao Hanjiao: "You know Xiao Yunqi has violent tendencies, don't you? He likes to play those terrifying tricks in bed, and I heard he's even killed someone with them."
Li Congfang: "Those are all rumors, there's no evidence. Besides, what's a little hardship if you want to become famous? Didn't you only switch to my team because Chen Jie was suppressing you and you couldn't become famous? Now the opportunity is yours, let's see if you can seize it."
Zhao Hanjiao remained silent for a while, but then she thought about how Wen Wan had acted in Director Yuan's movie and would be able to bully her in the company. What future did she have?
"I'll go."
Li Congfang smiled at Zhao Hanjiao, "That's good. Don't worry about Wen Wan, I'll help you."
"Thank you, Sister Fang."
Li Congfang naturally wouldn't let Wen Wan get away with it, since she looked down on Chen Jie and naturally didn't want to see her despised agent rise to power.
Soon after, news of Wen Wan's casting as the female lead in Director Yuan's new film spread online.
Who is Director Yuan?
That's a famous director who has won countless awards.
Who is Wen Wan? She was a minor star who had just started to gain recognition after playing two supporting roles. Although it was shocking, Director Yuan never cared much about popularity, so it didn't attract too much criticism.
However, Wen Wan and Gu Yiqin's relationship was soon exposed. Li Congfang had been in the entertainment industry for many years and was very skilled in using some of the industry's methods. The marketing accounts she hired portrayed Wen Wan and Gu Yiqin's relationship as real and sweet, with nothing but positive praise.
Just when netizens thought the two were secretly dating, rumors spread that Wen Wan had a relationship with the behind-the-scenes boss of Qinghe Investment Company. After all, Qinghe Investment Company had invested in every one of Wen Wan's dramas and even replaced the previously cast actors. Fans of those actors started to play the victim.
Xiang Yang quickly noticed this well-prepared public opinion, which was aimed directly at Wen Wan and President Gu.
During her investigation, Chen Xiaoya discovered that not only were the artist teams that had tried to snatch the role but had failed, but the Xiao family had also made moves, hiring a lot of online trolls. Because Gu Yiqin had not been very active in recent years, most of the focus was on Wen Wan.
Wen Wan has no formal education; she has never attended school.
Wen Wan had plastic surgery, Wen Wan had a sugar daddy, Wen Wan cheated on her boyfriend...
This overwhelming outpouring of slander instantly reminded Chen Xiaoya of the time when Gu Yiqin was smeared, a time when she was powerless to do anything. But did the Xiao family really think they could just let this mudslinging continue? How could they?
Quickly launch a public relations campaign.
Contact Chen Jie immediately to inquire about Wen Wan's situation.
As it turned out, Chen Jie... didn't know the specifics at all, because he just happened to find Wen Wan at the company entrance, and he didn't have time to ask for details because it was too urgent at the time.
When Wen Wan heard Chen Xiaoya's call, she was still filming. She had been so busy lately that she hadn't had time to go online. After filming wrapped, she realized that she had been heavily criticized online, which left her a little stunned. She quickly went online and found so many messages that she almost couldn't log on.
"Wow!"
"Oh, my constitution is prone to bloodshed!"
She remained calm, after all, she was a war goddess who had once engaged in thousands of heated exchanges with netizens.
System: [Host, stop joking. Think of something. This is all aimed at Gu Yiqin.]
"I know that the Xiao family is planning to start with me and then force Teacher Gu, but they definitely don't expect that Qinghe is my company."
But can you clarify this? Then you'll be exposed.
Wen Wan: "..." What if Teacher Gu asks her how she could come up with hundreds of millions or even billions? How is she supposed to explain that?
This is such a windfall!
However, while Wen Wan was still figuring out how to break the deadlock, Gu Yiqin directly announced her identity.
Since Gu Yiqin stopped acting, his Weibo account has been completely inactive. Apart from the occasional movie repost, he hasn't posted anything on Weibo, leaving tens of millions of fans waiting anxiously for more, feeling left out in the cold palace.
As a result, the first thing he did a few years later was to directly admit his relationship with Wen Wan, drawing all the attention to himself.
Depend on!
Longtime fans were jolted awake.
This familiar scene brings back memories of that vicious ex-girlfriend, Black Tea Essence, from years ago. I feel like I could grab a megaphone and shout: Wake up! Don't be love-struck!
