Chapter 161 He Came from the Starlight (61)



The test results came out, and Xu Jing was admitted to the advanced training class of Shanghai Theatre Academy based on his own strength.

After finishing filming "The Fragrance of Charm" during the summer vacation, Xu Jing began a one-year study.

It is something that Star Alliance cannot tolerate for a popular star to give up his career for his studies.

At that time, Star Alliance had undergone a restructuring and was no longer as large as before. Currently, there was only one artist left who could be sold.

The senior management talked to Xu Jing and asked him to give up his studies and return to the company to continue his career.

Xu Jing did not agree and went back to deal with Xinglian.

With the power borrowed from Jiang Yufeng, Xinglian was undoubtedly bankrupt. The company was also acquired by its rival at a very low price.

All the artists under Star Alliance were transferred to the new company Watson Films.

Watson is no different from third-rate companies like Star Alliance. It has a profound foundation and is considered an old-fashioned production company.

As the former ace of the Star Alliance, Xu Jing was highly valued.

After discussion among the top management, Xu Jing was given generous treatment, but the prerequisite was that the contract would be signed for another ten years and he must obey the company's orders and arrangements.

Xu Jing decisively refused, and the new company began to put Xu Jing on ice for two years in order to give him a warning.

Two years later, Xu Jing passed the civil service exam and landed a job. He immediately hired a lawyer and sued Watson. With a minimal price paid, he got a chance to break away from Watson.

In order to discredit him, Watson bought a lot of trending searches. In the past two years, the outside world has changed dramatically, and the entertainment industry has been updated at a rapid pace. The glory of the past was just a flash in the pan, and it would be difficult to regain its glory.

But Xu Jing didn't believe in evil, and used the money he had saved over the years to set up his own studio.

When Bai Yiyi heard that Ji Wan had started a studio, she suddenly submitted her resignation to the company. After communicating with Ji Wan in advance, she finally accepted the studio's offer. The same thing happened to her as well, including her fangirl Cao Zhen and makeup artist Xiao Wang.

His fans back then did not leave him because he hadn't acted for a year. On the contrary, they became his die-hard fans as if they were in a tragic love relationship.

Cao Zhen had learned a lot about being an agent over the past two years and had also taken the relevant exams. She was overjoyed to hear that Ji Wan was returning.

With the help of her connections, the studio's most basic configuration was fully staffed.

When Cao Zhen was helping Ji Wan with business matters, he didn't expect that his own artist would give him a pleasant surprise.

Director Li, with whom she had worked previously, specifically asked Ji Wan to play the female lead in his company's palace drama, The Legend of Concubine Qi. After discussions, Ji Wan won the female lead role with her outstanding performance.

Not long after filming of "The Legend of Concubine Qi", the copyright was bought by the Fruit Channel and began to be broadcast weekly.

On the day it was released, it surpassed many TV series and took the top spot in the summer vacation season.

The marketing accounts took advantage of the situation and previously mocked Ji Wan openly and secretly for being suppressed by the company. Unexpectedly, she was able to win Director Li's palace drama in one fell swoop and even got the role of the female lead.

Before the show premiered, people mocked Ji Wan for being resource-rich and unable to play a sly, stoic character. After its premiere, the ratings slammed those marketing accounts in the face. It even topped the annual charts for the fruit channel, and after filming wrapped, it became a hot commodity, snatched up by other networks.

After two years of silence, Ji Wan returned to the top of the list at lightning speed and won the Best Actress award, one of the three major television awards, for her role in "The Legend of Concubine Qi".

The resources that were previously watching his value began to change their minds and lean towards him. After Cao Zhen took over the next few endorsements for Ji Wan, Ji Wan started collaborating with the film industry again.

Ji Wan has a good way of selecting films and can always find treasures from niche films.

The commercial films he chose were very popular at the box office, and although he didn't watch many art films, they still won him awards.

After five years in the entertainment industry, he has won two Best Actress awards and one Best Actress award.

Cao Zhen sometimes thinks he's lucky to be a fan of Ji Wan. His ambition matches his ability, and he doesn't resort to inferior work.

He always maintains a dedicated attitude towards work, and he neither flatters nor fawns over his fans, nor does he try to exploit them.

When dealing with colleagues in the circle, he is very good at networking and handling interpersonal relationships with ease.

Except love.

By the way, looking back, Cao Zhen realized that he had been busy with his career and was not very interested in relationships.

Cao Zhen also heard about his affair with Jiang Yufeng.

The relationship between the two of them is more like that of underground lovers. Not to mention the paparazzi, even the insiders can't dig up any information.

In five years, the two of them spent less than ten days together.

Cao Zhen even had the illusion that they were really in love?

Until one day, when she saw the wedding ring on his hand, Cao Zhen was shocked.

"Wanbao, are you married?"

"Yes." Ji Wan smiled brightly, bringing a touch of warmth to his well-groomed face.

"When did this happen?" She didn't even have an agent who knew about it. Didn't he treat her as a family member?

"I just made a cameo appearance in a short play in Paris a while ago, and I went there to get my marriage certificate and buy a diamond ring."

He said it was as simple as drinking water and eating, which made Cao Zhen feel misled. Are they really in love?

How did you decide to get married when you couldn’t even meet the person?

"When is your wedding?"

"No need." Ji Wan shook his head and tapped his lips with his finger. "No need to tell anyone, he and I are just secretly married."

"who?"

"Of course it's Jiang Yufeng."

The person I'm in love with has never changed. After knowing each other for seven years, it's time to give him or her a status.

"Are you doing him justice?"

After all, he is the boss of a listed group and is secretly married to a popular star?

If she'd let something slip, Zhalang would have been paralyzed the next day. "You're so irresponsible."

What does it look like to be sneaky?

Ji Wan looked at her seriously and said, "Are you willing for me to quit the entertainment industry now and live a life of raising a husband and children?"

"I'm not happy with it." Besides, he can't have children, so how can he take care of his husband and children?

"That's it. I respect his career, and he has to respect mine. I love acting, and at least before I can no longer do it, I have to leave my mark in history."

Cao Zhen was dumbfounded and asked incredulously, "He's just going to let you do whatever you want? Since you're rarely together, won't he quarrel with you?"

"Yes." We had many arguments about this, but no one mentioned breaking up.

When the two sides are at loggerheads, no one is willing to give in. The conflict is on the verge of breaking out, and in the end, there is only a quarrel.

"Then he didn't find someone behind your back?"

Cao Zhen knew that Ji Wan was very beautiful, but since his wife was away working all year round, wasn't she afraid of a fire in the harem?

Ji Wan laughed. "Honestly, he's more afraid of me finding someone else. That's why I rarely take on romantic scenes."

The interpersonal relationships in the entertainment industry are much more complicated, and there is overlap between the two circles. It is a long-term thing to be unable to bear loneliness.

Ji Wan patted her shoulder and said something heartfelt. "You'll understand love when you meet the right person."
