Bai Qingze never expected that the talisman he had just shown off last night would actually work today.
Just as he was driving, a large truck suddenly rushed out from the side and crashed into his car without slowing down at all.
The truck driver was also killed in the crash.
Bai Qingze also suffered some minor injuries.
The amulet hanging around his neck had long since turned into a wisp of black ash.
When Bai Qingzhi arrived after receiving the news, Bai Qingze had already dealt with the situation. The tragedy was caused by the truck driver's fatigue and sudden brake failure.
But neither the brother nor sister believed this explanation.
When Bai Qingze appeared in the studio with a band-aid on his forehead, Wenrou was clearly taken aback.
However, it quickly turned into worry.
Bai Qingzhi didn't miss the brief change.
"What happened?" Wenrou stepped forward anxiously, seemingly wanting to reach out and grab Bai Qingze, but she didn't get close.
"It's nothing, I just got bumped on the way," Bai Qingze replied with a smile, shaking his head.
Then he seemed quite proud, saying how badly the car was hit, but thankfully he only suffered minor scrapes.
Qiao Shanshan and Jiang Yan were both relieved, while Bai Qingzhi glanced at Wenrou out of the corner of her eye.
Although he was gritting his teeth, he had to put on a show of God's blessing, which was quite twisted.
"You got a new phone?" Bai Qingzhi noticed that Wenrou's phone was different today than yesterday's.
"That one broke. I went to buy it this morning." Wenrou noticed Bai Qingzhi staring at her new phone and handed it over.
Bai Qingzhi seemed to really like it, turning it over and over, and finally said that she wanted to change it too.
No one paid attention to this little incident. Although Bai Qingze was injured, it did not affect the subsequent filming.
Bai Qingzhi used what was available and set the scene directly in the amusement park that Xiao Yuan had given her.
Yang Wei arrived in the afternoon, looking hurried.
However, it was immediately obvious that he seemed to have some concerns.
Unlike last time, Yang Wei's trip this time was simple, and even her nanny van had been upgraded.
Bai Qingzhi didn't ask any more questions. That evening, she hosted a dinner for Yang Wei to welcome her back, set a time for filming the next morning, and then everyone went back to rest.
It wasn't until the way back that Bai Qingze told him that Yang Wei had recently gotten into trouble.
Ultimately, it all came down to the fact that they wanted her to get endorsement deals.
There are no true Best Actress winners in the entertainment industry. Besides having good acting skills, the most important thing is having someone behind you to support you.
"Without the Bai family, I'm afraid the Best Actor award wouldn't have fallen to me," Bai Qingze said with a smile, seemingly unconcerned.
"So, what happened to Yang Wei's sugar daddy?" Bai Qingzhi knew a little about the entertainment industry. Although she didn't agree with it, she wouldn't laugh at him.
It is especially difficult for a woman to make it in this industry.
"To be precise, he is not a major financial backer."
It turns out that the person who had been supporting Yang Wei all along was a middle-aged entrepreneur, but in the first half of the month, the entrepreneur suddenly died.
Since he had no wife or children to inherit his estate, his businesses fell into disarray.
The entrepreneur originally had feelings for Yang Wei; otherwise, he wouldn't have done so much for her. He had also previously said that he would leave some of his assets to Yang Wei.
Unfortunately, he died without leaving a single word, so Yang Wei naturally received nothing.
Yang Wei was depressed for a long time afterward, and even had suicidal tendencies.
At this very moment, Yang Wei's former competitors emerged one after another, taking this opportunity to crush her to death.
I heard that it was only after an entrepreneur appeared in Yang Wei's dream and told her to live a good life that she recovered.
There are new faces in the entertainment industry every year, and some other wealthy patrons have tried to keep Yang Wei as their mistress, but she has refused them all.
As a result, her role in the company became less important, and the company quickly shifted its focus to developing new talents.
The filming schedule conflicted with another program, and Yang Wei insisted on coming to Bai Qingzhi's side, which made the company even more displeased.
With both contracts expiring, the company showed no intention of signing new ones.
Rumors suggest that the company plans to take this opportunity to downgrade the contract to B level, which is just one level higher than that of newly debuted rookies.
Bai Qingzhi remained silent for a long time after hearing this. She really couldn't understand what was so good about the entertainment industry. Not only was it murky, but there was also a lot of backstabbing and infighting.
But since Yang Wei wanted to befriend her, she wouldn't be ungrateful, and there just happened to be an opportunity right now.
The next day, Bai Qingzhi found Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan had told her about starting an entertainment company some time ago.
We're currently in need of a key player.
Xiao Yuan was a businessman, so profit was his priority. After hearing Bai Qingzhi's recommendation, Xiao Yuan immediately had someone estimate Yang Wei's value.
Bai Qingzhi didn't tell Yang Wei about all of this for the time being.
Filming went very smoothly, with the Best Actor and Best Actress collaborating, and the film caused a sensation online even before its official release.
Fans from both sides mobilized, saving a significant amount on advertising costs.
Of course, this also included some of the voices of the haters, which Bai Qingzhi chose to ignore.
With only one week left before the design competition started, the organizing committee suddenly received a written message from Bai Qingzhi, forgiving Hao Yan and her daughter for buying the design.
With the victim's forgiveness and Hao Yan's continued efforts to pull strings behind the scenes, the matter was quickly put to rest, and they were able to participate in the competition.
Upon receiving the news, Hao Yan was overjoyed and, unusually, showed a hint of kindness towards her daughter.
The mother and daughter started working on their designs overnight, but unfortunately, they were never satisfied with what they came up with.
