Chapter 37 Chapter 37 The Financial Backer
"Two years after graduating from college." Xia Tian laughed softly.
Everyone on and off the stage showed shocked expressions.
"Is it true?" Zhao Zimu asked.
"Of course it's true. Otherwise, how would I have the time to film? 'Night Rain' took six months to shoot last year."
Zhao Zimu glanced at the audience and said with a smile, "I feel like a lot of people don't believe it. You have to be a genius to graduate from college at 18."
"I'm seventeen." Xia Tian glanced at the trophy and asked directly, "Is this award mine?"
Zhao Zimu came up and immediately followed the procedure to cue Chu Yajun, "Yajun, hurry up and give them the award. What are you standing there for?"
"You were chatting so passionately with him, why don't you give him a prize?" Chu Yajun said, taking two steps back, further away from them. "But I do have something to say. Some people, at such a young age, should learn something. Don't just ignore the good stuff and try to imitate others by climbing into bed."
Zhao Zimu couldn't stand this woman any longer. Each part of the award ceremony had a time limit. He walked directly to the etiquette lady, took out the trophy, and handed it to Xia Tian with both hands. "Congratulations."
Xia Ji took it with both hands and nodded slightly, "Thank you."
After sincerely thanking all the staff of the film, Xia Tian left the stage.
At this time, the hot searches on the Internet had exploded, and on the short video platform, the scene of Xia Tian going on stage to receive the award was separately captured.
Topics such as #Chu Yajun's face changes# #Qin Shuangge's nomination# #Summer's youngest Star Film Award winner# #Star Film Award insider# have been trending on the search list one after another.
Xia Ji didn't feel anything about the two sentences Chu Yajun said. He didn't feel that she was talking about him at all, because he didn't climb into the bed, and he didn't know what others were saying about him.
When they returned to their seats, Xu Yuan, Li Bing and the others were furious. They happily accepted the award, but ended up having to endure this humiliation.
"You should smash the trophy on that woman's head," said Li Bing.
"Why?" Xia Tian asked.
"Xia Ji, you still need to deal with some rumors. Someone saw you getting into the car during the filming of 'Happy Big Bang' that day." Xu Yuan reminded him implicitly.
Xia Tian thought about it carefully. His behavior was very decent. It shouldn't be a problem if others saw him. "Get in the car?"
It had been more than half a year since the incident, and he couldn't remember many details.
"Who is that man who came to pick you up at around eleven o'clock in the evening? He doesn't look young anymore." Xu Yuan said.
"You said..." Xia Ji reacted, swallowed Si Guanqing's name, and explained seriously and silently, "That's my uncle, what kind of rumors can be spread?"
"It is said that he is the financial backer behind you, and that you are being trained by someone." Li You said directly.
summer:"……"
He made a six gesture speechlessly.
"That's my uncle. I grew up with him, and my aunt was very good to me. Please stop making blind guesses."
"Uncle? Is your uncle's family so rich?" asked another actor.
"Yes..." Xia Ji didn't know what to say. He was an adopted son? What if it was revealed in the future that he and Si Cheng were together? Wouldn't that cause even more chaos?
"Anyway, our relationship is fine. I have an even better relationship with the man who came to pick me up, and if you hear anyone talking nonsense again, please explain it to me." Xia Ji clasped his hands together.
The Best Actress was mediocre, and she was a talented actress who had undergone a transformation.
After coming out of the award ceremony, Xia Ji threw the trophy to Yang Li.
The Star Film Awards ceremony is held in S City, and Xia is currently in a different location from Si City.
Yang Li's face didn't look very good. His agent just called him and told him that Si Cheng was very angry when he saw the negative hot searches on the Internet while watching the live broadcast of the award ceremony. He asked him to find a way to prevent Xia Ji from going online. He was trying his best to suppress the heat to avoid making Xia Ji unhappy.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ji took out his cell phone as soon as he got in the car. He was so scared that he almost snatched the phone away and stammered, "Xia, Xia Ji, it's so late, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
Xia Ji ignored him and directly clicked on the Weibo. It is worth mentioning that this thing has been called a toilet.
Having been in the entertainment industry for two lifetimes, and being embarrassed by Chu Yajun's humiliation, how could he not have guessed that the internet would be in an uproar at this moment? However, he did not expect that the rumor that he had a financial backer would also cause an uproar on the internet.
If Xu Yuan hadn't told him, Chu Yajun would have had no idea that she was talking about him.
The top hot topics now are #Summer Sponsor# #Summer Bed Climbing# #Star Film Award Insider Trading# and other topics.
He clicked on it and saw that it was all videos of the Star Awards ceremony, with the part about him cut out separately.
The comments below are disgusting.
Just as Xia Ji was about to look at it, Yang Li snatched away his phone.
"Give me."
"No." Yang Li shrank his body and hid his phone behind his back.
Xia Tian glared at him and suddenly pounced on him.
"Oh shit." Yang Li screamed in pain after being hit by this human bomb, and the cell phone hidden behind him was snatched away.
Xia Ji snorted triumphantly and unlocked the screen. He wanted to see which little bastards were throwing dirty water on him.
The top few are all well-known entertainment accounts, and they all post about the Star Film Awards.
Waiting for the Rain: Is it true or false?
There is always a sky beyond the sky: It’s true. My friend is a staff member of Qingtai. He said that almost everyone in the circle knows about this matter.
Should I eat strawberries for Christmas? I can only say that flies don’t bite seamless eggs. If such things break out in the entertainment industry, it is basically true.
The darker the night, the more energetic I am: Chu Yajun is so brave, she said it directly on the podium. Xia Ji’s mentality is also strong enough, and she was able to finish her thank-you speech without changing her expression.
Shanshui Youyue: Does anyone know who the financial backer is behind this? Anyone trying to find out? I'm so curious.
Yaoyao0322: I heard that a paparazzi took some photos, but his account was blocked as soon as the photos were posted, and there was no news after that. If Chu Yajun hadn’t revealed the news publicly at the Star Awards, no one would have known about it.
This comment received the most replies, with many people asking him if he knew more information and who the financial backer was.
Yaoyao0322 replied: I can only say that he has a great background and is also very old.
Xia Tian wanted to reply and typed a few words, but then he remembered that Si Cheng didn't like to be exposed to the public, so he deleted the words.
Seeing that he couldn't stop Xia Ji, Yang Li also took out his phone and clicked on the company Weibo. "We have issued a statement and collected evidence. We will sue all these marketing accounts."
As he said this, he held out his cell phone to Xia Ji and showed it to him.
"Also, the Nebula Awards have also issued a statement. Look."
Xia Ji took Yang Li's phone. The official account of the Nebula Awards issued a selection statement just after the live broadcast ended, detailing the selection criteria for Best Actor. All the judges and well-known filmmakers also forwarded it one by one, with a note saying that Xia Ji's acting skills are obvious to all.
"I don't know either. I asked before and confirmed that the Best Actor award was yours."
The car was parked in the underground parking lot. Chu Yajun, who had changed her clothes and removed her makeup, got into the nanny car while talking on the phone. The two assistants behind her also got in the car one after another.
"Yes, yes, it's him. I didn't expect that. Sorry, sorry, baby."
After the nanny car drove out of the parking lot, she kept comforting herself with "hmm" and "ah" for a long time before Qin Shuangge hung up the phone.
Just as she was about to curse, she saw the assistant say with an unpleasant expression, "Sister Jun, it's Sister Li's call."
It's her agent.
Chu Yajun took the phone from her assistant and said in a much softer voice, "Sister, what's wrong?"
"Where are you now?" Her agent's voice was suppressed and obviously angry.
"I just came out of the awards ceremony hall and am heading to the airport to fly to France. Isn't Gracia's new product launch the day after tomorrow?"
As one of the brand ambassadors of Gracia Jewelry, she was also invited to this new product launch conference.
"No need to go, it's cancelled."
"What? Why was it cancelled?" Chu Yajun felt cold all over in an instant.
Although she has gained some fame abroad, her status has not yet been stabilized. Gracia is one of the top ten luxury jewelry brands in the world, and being the spokesperson for this brand is a very important point for her, a very high level.
"I don't know. I just received a call from the brand, confirming that they don't want you to come. They won't renew your contract after this quarter ends."
Chu Yajun felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave.
"Why did you say those things on the podium? Stay away from things that are not your business. Don't get carried away after being famous for a few years. There are many hidden mountains in the circle. If you rush around recklessly, you will end up sinking." said the agent.
"You mean, the cancellation in France this time has something to do with what I said?"
"It's not just this announcement. Several subsequent jobs have been cancelled. I just called to say they've been cancelled. You can have a good rest now."
"What?" Chu Yajun slumped in the chair.
"Okay, that's it. I'm hanging up."
"Wait, are these announcements cancelled all because of Xia Ji? Just because I embarrassed him on stage?" Chu Yajun still asked in disbelief.
"What else? Even if the sky falls, it won't fall so fast."
The agent hung up after he finished speaking, leaving Chu Yajun speechless for a long time.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you?" the assistant asked cautiously, "Are you feeling unwell? Would you like some water?"
"Get out of here." Chu Yajun shouted. She picked up her cell phone and called Qin Shuangge tremblingly, but Qin Shuangge didn't answer.
She now knew that she was being used as a knife by Qin Shuangge. Qin Shuangge himself did not dare to offend Xia Ji and bewitched her to be his scapegoat.
"Ahhh! Qin Shuangge! You bitch!" Chu Yajun was so angry that her face turned grim and she threw her phone in despair.
Qin Shuangge didn't dare to answer the phone, not because he knew what happened to Chu Yajun, but because Zhang Qingxiong noticed that he was competing with Xia Ji for the Best Actor Award at the Star Film Awards.
"It wasn't you, was it? I saw someone online breaking the news and implicating the Si family. If it was you, they would be able to find out quickly. Don't implicate me."
Zhang Qingxiong's voice was cold and contained a dangerous warning.
Qin Shuangge breathed a sigh of relief. So that was the question. "Of course not. The online revelations were because some paparazzi had taken some photos before."
