Chapter 168: Injure enemies and lose of your own?
In the entertainment industry, whether a person is popular or not depends on how popular he is.
But the results of gradually accumulating popularity are too slow.
Especially in such an environment where the economy is developing rapidly, people are restless, and all walks of life are beginning to decline.
The professional requirements for being an actor are extremely low.
Not to mention ordinary people, even wanted criminals can get into this circle.
The entertainment industry is a place where all kinds of monsters gather.
This group of monsters neither have the professional qualities of the older generation of artists, nor can they, like the older generation of artists, speak differently to different people.
They have no special features, which makes it extremely difficult for them to become famous.
Therefore, someone figured out an evil way to play - black and red!
Since they can't satisfy everyone, they might as well make everyone dissatisfied.
Do whatever is against the will of heaven and whatever makes people angry.
"Jiang Nian, you are not planning to take this route, are you?"
"Well, if you were still a newcomer, this would work, but the problem is that you are famous now, there is no need to do this."
"And if you're not famous enough, you basically can't act in TV dramas or movies. Your reputation is too bad, and no one dares to hire you. You can only appear on variety shows, but you've offended one of the old sponsors of that variety show, Sunshine Sponsorship."
"It's totally a thankless task for you to do black and red now."
June 2012, .
During the day, Jiang Nian's parents were sent back to their hometown.
At night, after more than an hour of work, Yang Mi lay beside Jiang Nian and analyzed the pros and cons with him seriously.
During these two days of college entrance examination.
Jiang Nian has completely ruined his reputation.
Not only did he enter the examination room on time every day, but no matter what the subject was, he would always hand in his paper half an hour in advance and be the first to leave.
The key point is that after he came out, his tone was very loud when facing the interview with reporters.
Apart from what I often say, 'It's very simple, not difficult, I hope the question-setting team can keep up the good work'.
There is also an interactive guessing game.
What does it mean to keep one lotus among ten lotuses and pick nine?
After getting off the subway, I walked home and walked as far as I could.
What did Confucius say to his 3001st disciple? He will not accept any more disciples.
For a moment, God was resentful and people were angry.
There are even people offering a reward online, and they want to find the real Jiang Nian offline.
In response, Jiang Nian lit up a cigarette nonchalantly and asked, "Who told you I was going to play black and red?"
Yang Mi was stunned: "Then you..."
"It's smaller, the layout is smaller."
Jiang Nian shook his head slightly disappointed. He exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at Yang Mi: "Sister Mi, let me ask you, after I come up with this rhythm, do you think that Sunshine Capital will remain indifferent?"
"Of course not. You are moving at such a fast pace now, they must be behind it."
"Then let me ask you again, given the current situation, do you think there is any point in them fanning the flames?"
Jiang Nian asked.
Yang Mi was slightly stunned.
Judging from the current situation, the pace at which Sunshine Capital is spending money to train Jiang Nian cannot be said to be completely useless, but it can only be said to be meaningless.
Because they didn't even have to do anything, Jiang Nian set the pace himself and was criticized by the entire Internet.
"You know, they hate me so much, wouldn't it cost a lot of money to hire a troll army?"
Jiang Nian asked again suddenly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Mi's eyes suddenly became filled with fear when she looked at Jiang Nian.
Because Jiang Nian’s way of playing is too extreme!
Injure the enemy a thousand times and injure yourself eight hundred?
Do not!
Jiang Nianzai injured 800 enemies and suffered 10,000 casualties of his own!
"I was right about what I saw before. You are crazy!"
"You actually exchanged your own future for his loss?"
"How much money can he lose? Hundreds of thousands? Even if he buys trending searches, a few million is probably the maximum he can make!"
"If you develop it well, the value you can generate will be worth billions!"
"Why did you throw away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds?"
Yang Mi said she couldn't understand Jiang Nian's thoughts.
Jiang Nian did not explain this.
If things wanted to be as bad as Yang Mi said, the most important prerequisite was that Jiang Nian failed the college entrance examination.
Only in this way will Jiang Nian be doomed.
but.
"How could I possibly fail the test?"
Jiang Nian smiled, then patted Yang Mi on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, wait a few more days. The most important thing for people is to be patient, isn't it?"
Hearing this, Yang Mi rolled her eyes: "Why? Do you think you can still turn the tables?"
"Why not? It's not the last minute yet, don't be so hasty to draw conclusions."
Jiang Nian said with a smile, looking completely confident of victory.
Seeing this, Yang Mi rolled her eyes, too lazy to say anything to him. She just turned over and fell asleep.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it’s number twenty-three.
Fifteen days have passed since Jiang Nian took the college entrance examination.
But the controversy caused by Jiang Nian is still ongoing.
The reason for this is not only because the college entrance examination is very important, but also because what Jiang Nian did was really too much.
It is also because the Sunshine investors have been maintaining the pace of this matter.
Obviously, they wanted to completely crush Jiang Nian through this incident.
"You're pretty stubborn, you don't accept it, right?"
"I'm going to kill you!"
Dongshan Province, Qing City.
In a villa by the sea, the middle-aged man said viciously while looking at the contents on the computer.
If Jiang Nian were here, he would definitely not feel strange seeing him.
Because this man was the actual person in charge of Sunshine Variety Show Co., Ltd. that he had investigated before, or the Sunshine investor.
From the end of filming of "Longing" to now.
All the instructions directed at Jiang Nian were issued by him.
Now, seeing his own results, the middle-aged man expressed satisfaction.
I thought that the top-quality twin lucky beads that I bought at a high price some time ago were really useful!
It had just been used up, and Jiang Nian, who had been working under his command for several months, died immediately.
"But it's still too cheap for him!"
"In my opinion, this variety show can run for seven or eight episodes and earn hundreds of millions."
"As a result, the first season has been aborted."
"After spending tens of millions, I didn't even get my money back!"
"He deserves to die for making me lose so much money!"
Holding the walnut in his hand, the middle-aged man's eyes were full of anger.
For him, not making twice the profit is already a loss.
Not to mention that Jiang Nian single-handedly brought the show to a violent demise, without even getting back the cost.
Since he climbed to this position, when had he ever been treated like this?
He must use thunderous means to suppress Jiang Nian, the street kid who provoked him!
Only in this way can we convince the public.
The middle-aged man let out a long puff of smoke, thought of something, put down his cigar, picked up the phone, and prepared to call Yang Mi.
He still remembered that a month ago, Yang Mi took the initiative to call him to discuss Jiang Nian's matter. He was so kind that he put forward a request, but Yang Mi hung up the phone without saying a word.
"You ungrateful animal."
"I want to see what you can do in this situation!"
As he said that, he opened the phone book, found Yang Mi's number, and was about to call her.
But that's it.
"Boom boom boom-"
"Boom boom boom-"
There was an extremely rapid knock on the door.
It was like reporting a death, and I was extremely anxious.
Hearing this movement, the middle-aged man frowned and said, "Come in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man rushed in with a panicked look on his face. He said, "Boss Xu, this is bad. The reputation of Jiang Nian, who you asked us to keep an eye on, has changed!"
"What do you mean?"
Mr. Xu asked.
“Literally!” the man gasped, “Just now, the college entrance examination results were announced, and Jiang Nian’s results could not be found!”
"Um?!"
After hearing this, Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and asked, "Is it because there are too many people checking now, causing the webpage to not refresh? The results haven't been entered yet?"
"No! I just can't find it! And the Heilongjiang Provincial Education Bureau has also announced the top 50 students in the province for this year's college entrance examination, and Jiang Nian is ranked first!"
The man stammered and told what he had just seen.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Xu's eyes widened. "What? How is this possible? Are you sure that it was released by the Heilongjiang Provincial Education Bureau? Aren't the top 50 in the province not disclosed throughout the years?"
"Yes, yes. But you've seen the public opinion this time. We've made such a big fuss about it and made it distort the issue. This matter is no longer Jiang Nian's problem, but a conflict between the artist and the majority of candidates. If we don't make it public or just ignore it, the impact will be even greater!"
"Hold!"
After hearing the explanation given by his subordinates, Mr. Xu immediately cursed!
As the actual person in charge of a company, it is impossible for him not to know the pros and cons.
But he knew this and still did it.
On the one hand, some people are hoping for the best, thinking that the authorities are so high and mighty that they won’t take such trivial matters between celebrities seriously, let alone care about them.
On the other hand, he did this for his own purpose.
Who would have thought that the "indifferent" officials, who had not said anything earlier or later, would speak up at this very moment.
"broken!"
He said to himself and quickly refreshed the webpage.
I saw that under Jiang Nian’s Weibo, the comment section, which was supposed to be filled with comments from internet trolls, full of hostility and chaos, suddenly changed its tone and became extremely peaceful.
Congratulations and words of admiration abound.
Apparently, after being silent for a long time, Yang Mi has also started to make some efforts!
They are controlling the direction of public opinion!
"Oh shit!"
Seeing this, Mr. Xu immediately started cursing.
This Jiang Nian is really a cockroach, he can even make this fucking thing come alive.
He was so angry that he immediately ordered additional funds, increased the number of water army, and continued to set the pace.
But he hadn't said anything yet.
"Ding-ling-ling—"
"Ding-ling-ling—"
Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.
When people are unlucky, all kinds of bad things will pile up together.
Before Mr. Xu had time to deal with Jiang Nian, the phone he had placed in the drawer started to ring.
Upon hearing this noise, Mr. Xu's face suddenly changed.
He quickly waved his hand, signaling the man to leave, then quickly opened the drawer and answered the phone. The anger on his face disappeared immediately, replaced by unprecedented flattery:
"Hello? Yes, it's me. What can I do for you?"
"As for the funding issue, let me explain. Our cash flow was normal, but because a guy ruined the drama we invested in, there was a small gap in our capital chain. We will be able to make up for it soon."
"Yes, I understand that explanation is a cover-up, but..."
"What, you said you were coming over? Okay, I'll be there right away!"
Mr. Xu hung up the phone and hurried out of the room.
Seeing this, the man guarding the door stepped forward and said, "Boss Xu, what about Jiang Nian?"
"Get lost, don't bother me, we'll talk about this later, drive me to school right now, if you delay, I'll kill you!"
Mr. Xu said hurriedly.
Hearing this, the man realized something. Without saying anything, he drove away quickly, taking Mr. Xu away.
All of this was captured by the inconspicuous drone hanging in the sky.
"what's the situation?"
Sitting in a car, watching the images fed back by a civilian drone, Zhang Linyu muttered to himself as he looked at Mr. Xu who had left in a hurry.
As early as last month, after the filming of "Swordsman" was completed, Zhang Linyu received the task from Jiang Nian to investigate the boss behind the Sunshine Capital.
Zhang Linyu searched all the way here and has been squatting nearby for several days.
In these few days.
Except for the two days ago, when Mr. Xu brought back a pregnant woman from outside.
The rest of the time, the other party never traveled far. He was either sunbathing on the beach or staying in the villa.
The scope of activities is extremely limited.
But now, he suddenly left the villa and was so anxious.
This inevitably made Zhang Linyu very curious.
So he thought about it, took back the drone, drove after it, and saw if there was anything he could dig deeper into.
And it’s this one.
He followed Mr. Xu directly to the vicinity of a school!
Seeing this, Zhang Linyu frowned even deeper.
Not only because this school is a 'Japanese school'
Moreover, Zhang Linyu couldn’t understand how a variety show investment company could be related to this thing.
There is no connection between the two!
"It's weird!"
Zhang Linyu murmured.
He felt that something was increasingly wrong, so he did not move forward. Instead, he looked around and found a residential building nearby. He quickly walked in, climbed to the roof, took out his camera, increased the magnification, and began searching in the school.
Hard work pays off.
Soon, Zhang Linyu found Mr. Xu's whereabouts in the director's department.
He was chatting with a Japanese in a very respectful manner.
As they chatted, the two of them took out a document.
Seeing this, Zhang Linyu's eyes fixed, and he quickly increased the magnification and looked carefully.
I saw a line of Japanese written on the document.
Zhang Linyu didn't understand, but thanks to the intuition he developed as a private detective, he felt that there might be something wrong with this thing, so he found the right moment and took a picture of the scene when the two people were handing over.
Then I waited for a while and found that after handing over the documents, the two were just chatting, took a few photos, and then left in a hurry.
Little did he know that just as he was going downstairs, a crack appeared in the seemingly peaceful residential building, and several pairs of eyes were staring at Zhang Linyu's leaving back, with cold eyes, like poisonous snakes!
