Chapter 1443 Self-Righteous
The winter of 2002 soon arrived, and this winter was particularly cold.

Xie Qiao, Wang Ying and Xu Lin went to the classroom together, but all three of them were shivering from the cold. The weather in this city was really too weird.

At this moment, Qin Chuan appeared in front of them in a Lexus GX. "Boss lady, Xie Qiao, Xu Lin, get in the car! I'll take you to the classroom."

"Qin Chuan, aren't you in the crew of "The Disguiser"? " Wang Ying, Xie Qiao and the other two immediately got into the luxury car, and then Wang Ying looked at Qin Chuan with a puzzled look on her face and asked.

"It's already wrapped! President Su is personally overseeing the post-production of 'The Lurker'."

Then, Wang Ying, the proprietress, looked at Qin Chuan again with doubt and asked, "Qin Chuan, a few days ago, many third-rate tabloids said that Yao Chen entered Su Ning's room. Is this true?"

"Huh? It must be fake! With Yao Chen's looks..." Qin Chuan, who has been busy in the crew of "The Disguiser", answered very straightforwardly. The entire crew knew that Su Ning and Yao Chen had nothing to do with each other.

At this moment, Wang Ying thought Qin Chuan was covering up for Suning again. "Hmph! Hard to say! Maybe this Yao Chen has some special abilities."

Qin Chuan, with a wry smile, almost said that Su Ning and that Tang Wei were the ones who were truly having an affair. He quickly realized that Wang Ying was just trying to trick him. "Come on! President Su really is impressed by Yao Chen's acting skills, and Yao Chen's acting is truly outstanding. Sometimes I really admire President Su's discerning eye."

Seeing that Qin Chuan's answer was flawless, Wang Ying asked again about the premiere of "The Hidden Cam", "When will the premiere be?"

"I don't know! But I heard that 'Drawing Sword' will premiere on CCTV-8 on December 1st."

"CCTV Channel 8? It seems this 'Bright Sword' is a very well-made show?"

Qin Chuan, who had seen the full film, explained with admiration, "That's right! I've seen the full film of 'Bright Sword', and Mr. Li Youbin's acting is truly superb."

"What about Suning?" Xie Qiao on the side asked curiously.

"Huh? Mr. Su plays a villain who's a little Japanese. He's definitely going to make people hate him. But I can give you a little spoiler: Mr. Su was killed by a cannon shot from Teacher Li Youbin in the end."

Sure enough, Qin Chuan's explanation made the three girls in the car laugh. "Haha, that's really fun. We must watch it on TV when the time comes."

"Don't worry! This "Bright Sword" is definitely well-made."

In fact, having a boyfriend as capable as Suning still makes Wang Ying feel a little insecure. After all, she is always worried that Suning will be snatched away by someone else.

Wang Ying also didn't think that Suning would be interested in Yao Chen and Wang Luodan. The reason they were chosen was definitely because of their acting skills, and later events also proved this point.

But Wang Ying was suspicious of the other two actresses. After all, they were both beautiful women, and it was hard to say whether Suning would be infatuated with them.

However, Wang Ying didn't get any information out of Qin Chuan just now, so she didn't mention the matter again. Anyway, even if she knew the truth, she would be powerless to do anything.

……

Because today is Xiao Qianxi's birthday, Wang Ying, Xie Qiao and Xu Lin prepared party items, and Yang Cheng and Qin Chuan also drove early and waited at the door.

Qin Chuan didn't expect that Yang Cheng would also come over, and he couldn't help but feel surprised. Then everyone rushed to Qiangui KTV to celebrate, and Yang Cheng followed without feeling embarrassed.

Although Yang Cheng was not popular among everyone, and even Wang Ying was lukewarm towards him, people like Xie Qiao and Xu Lin did not say much, holding the attitude of not hitting someone who smiled at them.

Moreover, it was obvious that Yang Cheng was invited by Xiao Qianxi, which made Qin Chuan on the side feel a little amused. He didn't know whether Xiao Qianxi was looking for death or not.

While friends were singing and dancing in the cash box to celebrate for Xiao Qianxi, He Xiaozhou gave Xiao Qianxi a gift made by his mother. He was not worried that Xiao Qianxi would dislike the gift because it was too shabby. Instead, it really made Xiao Qianxi very excited.

After everyone had dispersed and left, Wang Ying looked at Xiao Qianxi in confusion and asked, "Xiao Qianxi, was it you who invited Yang Cheng here?"

"Yes! Wang Ying, aren't you and Yang Cheng childhood sweethearts?" Xiao Qianxi then looked at Wang Ying in front of him self-righteously and asked back.

However, Wang Ying's attitude turned cold, feeling that Xiao Qianxi was too carried away. "What does this have to do with you?"

"Wang Ying, don't get me wrong! I just wanted to make peace with my enemies, so I took advantage of my birthday today to help Su Ning and Yang Cheng make peace. I didn't expect Su Ning to be too busy to come."

Wang Ying was really irritated by Xiao Qianxi's self-righteousness at this moment. He was even starting to act against Tian Gang, who was making decisions for them. "Haha, Xiao Qianxi, it seems like you've been doing really well at Starlight Brilliant recently. You're now making decisions for your boss."

"Ah? Wang Ying, I..." Xiao Qianxi was dumbfounded when he heard the sarcasm in Wang Ying's words.

"Xiao Qianxi, there are some things that you outsiders cannot interfere with. Don't be so foolish and self-righteous."

"..." At this moment, Xiao Qianxi's face immediately turned pale, realizing that she might have done something stupid today.

"..."

Just when Xiao Qianxi wanted to explain something, Wang Ying got into Qin Chuan's Lexus GX and left, not bothering to pay any attention to Xiao Qianxi.

After knowing that the Lexus GX had disappeared, Xiao Qianxi looked at He Youzhou with a wry smile and asked, "Brother Youzhou, do you think I did something wrong?"

They say fish seek fish, shrimp seek shrimp. He Youzhou is indeed as eccentric as Xiao Qianxi. "No! It's obvious that Su Ning and Wang Ying are too stingy. They didn't even know how to go down the slope when they were given an opportunity."

It was only then that the foolish Xiao Qianxi learned to consider the consequences. "But...but now I've offended the boss lady, Wang Ying. Won't it be difficult for me to survive in the company from now on?"

He Youzhou then casually expressed his thoughts on coming here. He felt that Xiao Qianxi did not need to be inferior to Wang Ying. "Qianxi, why don't you resign from Starlight Brilliant Company and find a new music company to join? After all, music is what you are best at."

"You...you let me think about it carefully."

"Well, then, first secretly look for a new music company. Once we have a clue, we can terminate the contract with Starlight Brilliant. I believe they won't be embarrassed to ask for liquidated damages."

"it is good."

In fact, Xiao Qianxi also regretted joining the "Starry Star" agency. Although everyone in "Starry Star" took good care of her, she still didn't like to be inferior to Wang Ying.

It was precisely because He Youzhou saw Xiao Qianxi's complicated mentality that he took the opportunity to give his advice. It was obvious that they still had to put themselves back on the path of tragedy.

……

In order to comply with the latest housing reform in Beijing, Qin Jianjun and his wife bought a commercial house in Tiantongyuan.

Qin Chuan now makes a lot of money working for Suning, so he immediately contributed money and effort to Qin Jianjun's house-buying plan, which naturally surprised Qin Jianjun and his wife.

Qin Jianjun looked at Qin Chuan with a smile on his face and asked, "Chuan'er, how are you doing at Firefly Pictures lately?"

"It's great! I'm now an assistant director." As expected, Qin Chuan's face was full of pride when he mentioned his work.

Then Qin Chuan looked at the Qin in front of him with a puzzled look and asked, "Chuan'er, I remember that you and Su Ning met in Canada?"

"Yes! My sister and I were working part-time in a Chinese restaurant to earn money for our studies. My sister got into an argument with the locals because we couldn't speak the language, and Suning happened to see us and helped us out. We became good friends from then on." "Speaking of which, you two are quite lucky, otherwise you wouldn't have found such a good job."

"Yes! That's why I work so hard."

"Well, let's invite Suning to our house for dinner, and we can thank him properly."

"it is good."

……

Soon it was December 2002, 12. Today was also the day when the first TV series "Drawing Sword" produced by Firefly Pictures was premiered. Many viewers were excitedly sitting in front of the TV to watch it.

The war scene at the beginning made the audience in front of the TV excited. The exquisite and realistic scenes gave the audience a strong sense of immersion, and every audience member unconsciously entered into the plot slowly.

At this time, Suninglou was sitting in the living room holding Wang Ying, watching the large LCD TV, enjoying the rare tranquility and warmth of this moment.

At this time, Wang Ying also sincerely praised it. This is the best anti-Japanese war film she has ever seen. "Suning, this "Bright Sword" is really great."

"Of course! The company has invested a lot in this drama, and it's really a pleasure to watch these veteran actors perform." Suning smiled with a smug look on his face.

"Technology companies have also made great progress. WeChat and QQ have been accepted by the market, and the games launched by Tencent are very good."

"Well, the technology company will transform into mobile phone manufacturing in the future. These early operations are just to build a reputation."

"Ah! 'Firefly' phone? What a weird name."

"Haha, we can think about the name slowly. Anyway, we are only in the research and development stage now. The most important thing is to purchase and apply for various patents."

"Well, I must think of a good name later."

"Then I'll leave it to you to come up with a name."

"Suning, I recently went home and found that my father was worried every day. Later, I asked my mother and found out that the Discipline Inspection Commission seemed to have noticed my father and my second uncle."

"It's only a matter of time! Your father's mentality of taking chances will only hurt others and himself."

"Suning, you are so capable, can you find a way to help my dad and second uncle?"

"How can I help with such a sensitive matter? I don't even have the possibility to ask about it!"

"Do we really have to watch tragedy happen?"

"Confess and be lenient; resist and be strict! The only way is to have your father and your second uncle turn themselves in, and then minimize the mistakes and losses. If we really wait until the shoddy construction goes wrong, your Wang family will be devastated."

"Suning, but my dad thinks that even if I surrender, our Wang family will still face a complete collapse."

"Wrong! Turning yourself in now will only mean returning the stolen money and serving a few years in prison. You can then enter the business world and start over. If you wait until something goes wrong and insist on holding on, you will only hurt yourself and others."

"Suning, you don't understand! There are too many things involved here. It's really not just our Wang family's business."

"Okay! After all, this matter has reached a dead end."

"..."

"Wang Ying, stop talking about these unhappy things. Anyway, as long as we take care of ourselves, your father and your second uncle will have a way out."

"Suning, thank you."

"Hey, are you only thanking me with your mouth?"

"Hmph! Today I'm going to thank you with my mouth."

"Hiss...ah..."

……

"Drawing Sword" became an instant hit when it was first broadcast on CCTV-8. You have to know that this is an era dominated by televisions, and the "on-rate" is not an issue that needs to be considered in this era.

Soon after, many local TV stations went crazy, regretting not spending huge sums of money to obtain the first broadcast rights of "Bright Sword", so they tried their best to snatch the second and third broadcast rights of "Bright Sword".

"Boss Su, congratulations! The movie 'Bright Sword' made you, 'Firefly', a lot of money."

"It's just a small thing! It can't compare to the big projects of your Huayi Company."

"Mr. Su is too modest! I wonder when 'Squid Game' will be released?"

"The plan is to release it during the Spring Festival this year! There may be some issues with the film review process, but they're not too serious. I believe China Film Group can handle it."

"That's great! But the film and television industry in Hong Kong has announced that they're going to boycott 'Squidward Idol' because there aren't any Hong Kong actors in it."

"Humph! Frogs in a well! Do they really think they are the Hollywood of the East?"

"Huh? Mr. Su, it's better to resolve a feud than to create one. How about our Huayi Company set up a table so we can all sit down and have a good chat?"

"Boss Wang, do you think I, Suning, am someone willing to admit defeat?"

"This……"

"Mr. Wang, let me tell you a secret in advance. All our copies are made by the same company. They're also equipped with anti-piracy technology and a self-destruct program. If anyone tries to pirate the copies, they'll self-destruct. Cinemas will have to sign a disclaimer before showing them."

"Ah? Mr. Su, do we have such advanced technology now?"

"It's not some cutting-edge high-tech technology! Nowadays, some imported high-tech machines have this process, but we at Firefly Pictures are using it for copying for the first time."

"Boss Su, let's wait and see what happens next."

"Haha, don't worry, Master Wang! I will definitely not let Huayi and China Film Group down."
