Chapter 50: So Sad
Then, under everyone's gaze.
Shu Ming reached out and hung up the phone neatly.
Guan Xianyi was a little surprised. Xiaoshu was a very sentimental child. She thought...
"Nothing to pick up."
Shu Ming's eyelashes drooped long, making it difficult to see his expression.
But for some reason, others felt that he was hurt.
"It's past eleven o'clock. I want to send a message to my aunt to see if she's asleep."
In fact, Shu Ming is not as aggrieved as others imagine.
Even though he felt a little sad, he was still more concerned about his aunt than the things he had already lost.
Aunt, will it be too late to wait for his call?
Shu Ming stood up and pushed his chair back. "I'll go find an empty conference room and make a call. Sister Xianyi, I'll take care of the online PR."
He took a quick glance and saw that there was a huge uproar online.
As expected, if you don’t have something confirmed, it’s better not to spread the news so early next time.
What Shu Ming didn't know was that his silence had long been interpreted by Guan Xianyi and the others as "holding back his anger" and "about to cry."
In their opinion, the child has suffered too much injustice!
Guan Xianyi said in a deep voice: "It's okay, go make the call. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer in vain."
Isn't it just about disgusting the other person online? That's really Guan Xianyi's specialty.
Besides, they occupy the moral high ground!
And - as for the resources of this little art film, Yinghe can have as many as they want, okay?
Shu Ming didn't know why Guan Xianyi suddenly became so "excited".
But that didn't stop him from looking at Guan Xianyi with his wet eyes, and then saying sincerely, "Thank you, Sister Xianyi."
Well, now the misunderstanding is even deeper!
Under everyone's loving gaze, Shu Ming was pushed out of the conference room by Guan Xianyi for no apparent reason and told to go call his family.
Guan Xianyi decisively rolled up his sleeves and began dialing the numbers in the address book one by one.
It's time to work!
**
Shu Ming originally thought that he would dream about Ye Liqing that night.
After all, in the entire "Choose 1", apart from his roommate Jiang Yingtian, Ye Liqing was the first contestant to show goodwill to him.
He has many dance moves, which were taught to him bit by bit by Ye Liqing.
Even now, when he dances, he still has many dance habits that are influenced by Ye Liqing.
Although the final group change was not very pleasant, Shu Ming still had some friendship in his heart.
But no.
Shu Ming had no dreams that night and slept until dawn.
When he sat up holding the quilt, he thought that he had indeed put it down.
Perhaps a year ago, if Shu Ming was targeted by Hongyu, he would really feel like the sky was falling.
But now, these things are indeed not a big obstacle for my future.
It may also be that I have been in the industry for a long time and have become accustomed to similar things.
Now, no matter what happened, it was not worth his emotional fluctuations.
Shu Ming was just a little disappointed.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Shu Ming didn’t know, he only knew that if he didn’t wash up, he would miss the crew’s schedule!
He has an extra early show today!
So he hurriedly got up, grabbed an egg and went out.
While brushing his teeth, Shu Ming was still thinking, what a pity, I didn’t get to eat noodles yesterday.
The next birthday noodles will have to wait another year.
Guan Xianyi and Tang Mishuang worked all night last night and did not come with us in the morning, so only Chengzi came to pick them up.
As a result, before Shu Ming even stepped into the crew, he saw many fans looking at him from afar on their way to work. Several young girls looked like they were about to cry, and the number of people was more than usual.
As soon as he stepped into the crew, Shu Ming discovered that, apart from the fans, the atmosphere on the set today was... weird.
Everyone looked at him with mixed expressions: some with sympathy and pity, some with heartache and pity; others with complicated, silent scrutiny; even a few male actors from the same crew came over and patted Shu Ming on the shoulder, urging him not to feel too aggrieved and sad...
Shu Ming was confused and felt that it might be related to what happened last night, but he really didn't pay attention to what happened specifically on the Internet.
After talking to his aunt on the phone last night, he was so tired that he fell asleep in a daze.
As for the morning? There's even less time for my phone! I barely have enough time to read the script, let alone browse entertainment gossip.
Therefore, Shu Ming really knew nothing.
However, even though he had many questions in his mind, he couldn't show them on the surface. So, he had to finish the play with mixed feelings, which was watched by a large number of people.
It was not until Shu Ming finished his work and took out his mobile phone to check the Internet that he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
No wonder Guan Xianyi stayed up all night last night! It turned out that he was going to use his ultimate move——
**
When the official announcement of the movie "Fang Ling" came out last night, it really caused a huge uproar on the Internet!
Xie Sheng was originally a new director with little experience. He had only filmed a few mediocre TV series before. It can be said that most of the attention to the movie "Fang Ling" was brought by Shu Ming alone.
The official has also been trying to capitalize on the actor's popularity, and almost came out to make it clear that Shu Ming will be the lead actor in the movie this time!
In this iron-clad atmosphere, Shu Ming's fans also brought their stools and waited early, eagerly waiting for their children to play the leading role in the movie.
In the end, the official movie company actually did this.
And the person who replaced Shu Ming and became the final male lead was actually Ye Liqing, his teammate from "Choose 1" who eventually debuted as a group and served as the captain of the limited group?
What's more, why choose to make the official announcement on Shu Ming's birthday?
Anyone with eyes can see what the official is thinking.
The fans exploded!
Guan Xianyi saw the opportunity and entered the scene during the chaos:
First, an "unknown insider" broke the news, claiming that Shu Ming not only agreed to star in Xie Sheng's film for a very low salary, but also turned down a literary and artistic film originally agreed to be directed by a famous director Ying He for the sake of the film "Fang Ling".
He is an internationally renowned director who has won numerous awards!
Although art films are destined to have low box office, the awards this director has won are of high value. If Shu Ming can win a few more awards, his status will definitely rise!
The curious onlookers took a look and saw Yinghe among the film producers of this famous director.
What was said online is actually true!
Another fan dug up information overnight, revealing that Zheng Yiwei and Xie Sheng actually had a mentor-disciple relationship, interacting on Weibo many years ago. Zheng Yiwei also appeared in paparazzi photos of the dinner.
The onlookers were wondering: What does this have to do with Zheng Yiwei?
Fans explained: The first drama Xiao Shu filmed after withdrawing from the competition, "Grassland Love", was directed by Zheng Yiwei.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a favor to recognize and support you!
No wonder... No wonder Shu Ming would rather turn down good resources and come to Xie Sheng's film to help alleviate poverty.
When this news came out before, the fan group was very confused. After all, Shu Ming’s official resources are getting better and better now. It doesn’t make sense for him to go back to the downhill path!
No wonder!
Everyone immediately imagined a pitiful image of a person who was affectionate, loyal, and caring about old friendships. They simply couldn't imagine it - after giving such a sincere heart, their own Xiao Shu received such treatment?
Even passersby couldn't help but feel pity for Shu Ming for a few seconds after taking a bite of the melon.
It’s so miserable!
What's more, on my birthday, someone got in my face and started yelling at me—
He finally celebrated his 19th birthday, the first time he celebrated his birthday in front of his fans. However, the child was filming on the set all day in a low-key manner. He didn't hold a birthday party, didn't receive any gifts, and didn't even make it to the hot searches.
And I have to be bullied to this extent!
Passersby felt that Shu Ming had suffered a lot.
In the fan group, everyone's emotions became even more intense.
This is why the scene this morning came about - so many people came to watch Shu Ming come to work.
Is Xiaoshu okay?
Fans all know that Shu Ming has always been a very sentimental person, otherwise he would not have written so many long letters to them, and he would not have turned down resources that were obviously beneficial to him just for Xie Sheng's little movie.
Xiao Shu, your sincerity has been wasted like this. Are you also discouraged and depressed?
From the very beginning, you have been given expectations and efforts time and time again, but you have been let down and abandoned time and time again. How should you resolve the grievances and sadness behind this?
How would you feel when you see Ye Liqing's name?
It's the point where my nose gets sore and I want to cry just thinking about it.
Guan Xianyi is an expert in public relations. She grasped the timing precisely and began to direct public opinion toward Hongyu.
In fact, Zheng Yiwei was also very unhappy about this matter, so he allowed public opinion to ferment to this extent.
In fact, Zheng Yiwei was unhappy, and Guan Xianyi was even more unhappy!
But after all, Zheng Yiwei still has a drama called "Love on the Grassland" in his hands that has not been broadcast yet, so he really can't offend him too much!
The only way is to cleverly make Zheng Yiwei and Xie Sheng into victims, to achieve a win-win situation for both parties.
Although to some extent, they can indeed be considered victims.
After all, can Ye Liqing, an idol who has never acted in a movie, be on the same level as Shu Ming, an actor who has been trained by Zheng Yiwei and Rong Ankang?
There is a high probability that Xie Sheng’s carefully prepared and highly anticipated award-winning film will also fail.
Zheng Yiwei was very dissatisfied with this matter, but he couldn't say it openly, so Guan Xianyi had to vent his anger for him!
Guan Xianyi was also quite savvy and spent a lot of money to guide the public's attention away from Zheng Yiwei and turn it to the mastermind behind the scenes - Hongyu Entertainment.
Not only that, she also helped the public review Hongyu’s dark side events of the past.
How Hongyu took turns interviewing the amateur Shu Ming; how Shu Ming, who had just become an adult at that time, faced the pressure from the program crew again and again; and how he colluded with Senhai Entertainment to force Shu Ming to change groups... All these incidents can be described as a heinous crime!
Oh, yes!
Only then did someone remember that Ye Liqing was from Senhai Entertainment!
"Don't wear down Director Zheng's guilt too much."
After Guan Xianyi finished everything, he took a sip of coffee and explained to Shu Ming, "The reason I spent so much effort to clear their names is because I wanted to manipulate Zheng Yiwei's guilt. Only if he feels guilty about you, will the promotion of "Grassland Love" take care of you. Do you understand?"
"Luckily for Zheng Yiwei, even though he's been in the industry for a long time, he still has a bit of conscience and isn't completely black-hearted. Don't worry, after this incident, all publicity related to 'Grassland Love' will definitely favor you."
Shu Ming put down the script in his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Xianyi."
However, he never thought that just talking nonsense in public opinion could really punish Hongyu.
pity……
Unfortunately, he is still a new actor whose words are not kept, and he has to walk on thin ice and rely on others for every step.
Shu Ming sighed in his heart and thought, forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
Guan Xianyi's guess was correct. A few days later, Zheng Yiwei called to report two pieces of good news.
First, the broadcast time of "Love on the Grassland" has been roughly finalized, and it has been agreed to be broadcast in early July during the summer vacation.
"Ju Xuan will definitely take care of our Shu Ming, Guan Xianyi, don't worry."
Not only Guan Xianyi was on the right track, but Zheng Yiwei was also on the right track.
He already liked Shu Ming very much, and with that added guilt, Zheng Yiwei became even more partial to Shu Ming.
In addition, Guan Xianyi handled the public opinion very well this time, allowing Zheng Yiwei to play the victim beautifully. She was both pitied and praised by the public. It was so cool!
Hence the words on the phone, which was his way of returning the favor.
The second is… "Chen Mi, the director of 'Far Away', has just returned to China. Let's arrange a time that is convenient for Shu Ming. Everyone can take the time to meet him."
Guan Xianyi stood up suddenly - Chen Mi returned to China secretly, is the casting for "Far Away" about to begin?
That's not right. How come they didn't hear any news from within Yinghe?
