"Apologize?" Bai Yan looked at Lulu. She hadn't gone to cause trouble for her; instead, Lulu had jumped out on her own.
A cold glint flashed in Bai Yan's eyes, and her lips curled slightly: "You were the one who said I got the role through unfair means in front of the live broadcast camera?"
This is a difficult question to answer.
Lulu bit her lip, deliberately making an angry expression: "That's because you stole Song Hanzhen's spotlight, I'm so angry..."
Bai Yan interrupted Lulu: "Your nonsense has damaged my reputation. Aren't you going to apologize to me?"
Lulu retorted angrily, "Am I wrong? If anyone should apologize, it should be you apologizing first!"
Bai Yan gave a sarcastic smile: "There's no reason for victims to apologize."
"Don't say I didn't steal her spotlight. Just this: a highlight isn't something you can just talk about. Someone without talent, even if given all the spotlight scenes, can't act them out. Which parts I performed were the real highlights." She made a pointed remark.
How arrogant!
A hint of mockery flashed in Lulu's eyes, but that was just right. The more Bai Yan acted this way, the more support she would get from the audience if she sided with Song Hanzhen.
In front of the camera, Lulu quickly put on a cute, pouty face: "You, you've gone too far. I initially thought you were being scolded pretty badly, but now I don't think so anymore."
"You still don't realize you're wrong, and you're still doing this. You're the one who hurt Song Hanzhen. Do you even know how hard she tried to advance?"
"You stole her spotlight with despicable means, and as a beneficiary, you still want to criticize her acting skills?"
Lulu looked at Bai Yan with disappointment: "Bai Yan, I hate you."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Bai Yan's expression was indifferent: "You're crazy."
You're the one who's crazy!
[Lulu is so cute and kind. Even though Bai Yan is disgusting, she only said she hated her. If it were me, I would have cursed her entire family.]
...
Lu Zhi said he would contact Brother Wang for evidence, while Bai Yan went to find the photographer in charge of filming to ask for the video of their rehearsals over the past few days. However, the crew's response was that the memory stick had been soaked in water a few days ago and could not be played.
Bai Yan looked at the photographer, who lowered his head.
She smiled, then quickly turned and left.
"How is it? Has the person left yet?" Zhu Ze asked as he came out of the photographer's room.
"Director, they've already left," the cinematographer replied.
Zhu sighed and touched his almost bald head: "This is fucking infuriating!" If it were just his personal dictatorship, he really wouldn't tolerate an artist like Song Hanzhen.
But unfortunately, the biggest investors are the celebrities, and they're forcing him to eat shit.
Zhu Ze is now in a bind. He doesn't dare to openly oppose Bo Yaodong, but he also doesn't want to be so spineless.
So he instructed, "You have to protect Bai Yan, whatever you do, don't let her get eliminated..." Then he scratched his head and said, "It would have been better if she had been eliminated, damn it..."
Good actors get criticized, while bad actors rise to fame by relying on the audience's pity. This is completely contrary to his original intention!
Zhu sat helplessly on the ground, cursing the filthy capitalism.
Bai Yan waited all day, but Lu Zhiyu, who had said he was going to find photographer Brother Wang and film a clarification video with her, never showed up.
"What is Lu Yuzhi doing?" Fang Yaming glanced at the time: "Didn't you say you were going to post a clarification on Weibo tonight?"
She was an impatient person, and seeing that Lu Zhiyu hadn't appeared, she knocked on his door, but he didn't open it. Fang Yaming initially thought Lu Zhiyu wasn't there, but after taking a couple of steps, she heard the sound of a water glass being knocked over inside.
She paused for a moment, then knocked on the door again, but still no one answered.
Lu Yuzhi sat in a chair in the room with a grim expression.
The agent standing to the side said coldly, "Wake up! Do you think Song Hanzhen can cause such a big stir all by herself? Liu Yan and Song Hanzhen are both people from Zhongxing. Don't offend Zhongxing, unless you don't want to work in the industry anymore."
"It's all because she's too outstanding and gets in other people's way. If you don't have the resources, you deserve to be taken advantage of."
"You should associate with Bai Yan less in the future. I have inside information that, apart from Liu Yan, the higher-ups at Zhongxing don't want to see her get ahead either. Do you understand what I mean?"
Lu Zhi lowered his eyes and finally nodded.
Fang Yaming went downstairs alone, and she looked rather unwell.
Bai Yan stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder: "That's only human nature."
She didn't think that getting to know someone in this circle would immediately make them good friends.
Fang Yaming took a breath. She had been through this situation before, where the truth was turned upside down, simply because the other party was powerful and knew how to win people's hearts... But why should the right people be isolated and helpless?
“It’s okay, I can help you clear things up,” Fang Yaming said. “I saw you rehearsing, I know the truth.”
Bai Yan stopped her: "My reputation is terrible right now, it will affect your popularity."
"I don't care," Fang Yaming said. If she were really that kind of person, she would have been famous long ago.
"Ya Ming, don't be impulsive," Bai Yan said. "If you really want to help me, listen to me. I'll let you clear things up for me when the time is right. Trust me." If she goes up now, she'll at most get a scolding.
Fang Yaming could only nod when she heard her say that.
...
An Ziran also saw what was happening online and immediately wanted to comfort her. But he also knew that Lulu's 'outspokenness' had put Bai Yan in the spotlight.
With someone already in charge, his attempt to get involved with her now will only bring her more negative news.
He has to help her solve the problem, or at least the person who caused it.
A cold glint flashed in An's eyes as he dialed Zhu Ze's number, inviting him to meet him in the studio later.
