Chapter 430: Director Lu, Your Wife Went on a Date with Someone
Some small stars in the entertainment industry also began to follow suit, accusing Xia Weibao of becoming famous early yet failing to set a good example. They declared themselves ashamed to consider Xia Weibao their peer, vowing never to become someone like her!
Such righteous indignation was instantly popular.
Several previously unnoticed minor stars suddenly gained tens of thousands of followers.
It was maddening.
It turned out that gaining followers was quite easy, as long as you joined in on the criticism.
So, even more people started to imitate this behavior, and the whole entertainment industry began to grow restless.
Blacklisted by the entire network!
This time, Xia Weibao was truly blacklisted by the entire network!
Outside the Hongtu Gate, reporters crowded round and round, while excited fans carried banners boycotting Xia Weibao and "Allure".
And that wasn’t all—the doors of Hongtu were even vandalized with red paint, with the words ’Bitch Xia, get out of the entertainment industry’ scrawled across them.
In the face of all this, not a single person from Hongtu made a statement.
The doors were firmly closed.
Because everyone had left work.
The holiday was on.
Why stay at the company, just to get splashed with mud?
Seeing this fervently emotional scene, Chu Ying laughed.
"It looks like Jiang Ming is still somewhat useful, managing to blacken Xia Weibao’s reputation so thoroughly."
The agent also felt a deep sense of satisfaction, "Indeed, in less than a day’s time, Xia Weibao has been brought down to rock bottom.
It’s not just Xia Weibao, but also ’Allure’, Hongtu—this time they have all been dragged down too,
With such a huge fuss, they shouldn’t even dream of making a comeback!
Are you at ease now?"
Chu Ying sighed and tilted her head to look out the window.
"After all, we did have a relationship. Seeing him end up like this today does make me feel sad."
The agent’s face stiffened.
Xu Jiayang’s downfall to this state today was all your doing.
There’s no one else here, so why the pretense?
Chu Ying withdrew her gaze, looking somewhat melancholic.
Back in the day, Xu Jiayang was young and handsome, bursting with promise, and she had truly loved him.
Too bad that man was too stubborn, unwilling to support her.
People always aim for higher ground, water flows downhill; she had simply made the same choice that the vast majority of people would make.
"By the way, Director Wan Ke just called, he wants to meet you at the hotel tonight," the agent suddenly said.
Chu Ying paused, then her face lit up with surprise and shyness, "He’s back?"
"Yes, he just got back today, and you’re the first person he wants to see.
Sister Ying, Wan Ke is considered the most talented of the younger generation of directors, touted as the next Xu Jiayang.
A year ago, he went abroad to further his studies, and now that he has returned with his newfound knowledge, he’s destined for great things.
I’ve already looked into it; he’s brought back a script, ’Republic of China Graceful Hero’.
The lead male role has been decided upon, with the acclaimed star Han Luoqi.
Right now, following the success of ’Deep Palace,’ it’s the perfect timing for you to transition to the big screen!
Tonight, you must seize this opportunity to secure the lead female role in ’Republic of China Graceful Hero’!"
Chu Ying flicked her hair near her ear and struck a relaxed, enchanting pose.
"For a Wan Ke film, naturally, I am the lead actress."
Lu Hualiang had been waiting all day, but by the time work ended, Xia Weibao still hadn’t called him.
He leaned back in his leather chair, clearly displeased.
He had previously promised her that he wouldn’t interfere with her affairs and would grant her freedom.
And she had promised him that if she encountered something she couldn’t handle, she would turn to him for help first.
With today’s incident blowing up so big and involving the military, it went beyond what she could handle.
Why hadn’t she taken the initiative to reach out to him?
Could it be that she had already gone home and was waiting for him there?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, so Lu Hualiang took his car keys and went back to Lu Garden.
Only to discover that Xia Weibao had gone out.
