Feverish actress cried after being angered by haters, but discovered the real culprit was at her bed

Chapter 29 Wang Miao Demands Money, Taking the Opportunity to Extort

The 02 acting class originally had only a very small number of students, including Zhu Yawen, Liu Yifei, Jiang Yiyan, and Luo Jin... who were among the first batch of students.

After the freshman year, due to resource allocation considerations, another performance class was merged together, which resulted in the current size of more than forty people.

So, although the class seemed harmonious, in reality, everyone had their own small groups, and everyone was clearly divided. Among them was a girls' faction led by Jiang Yiyan.

There's also the small clique centered around Liu Yifei, and finally the second-generation gang led by Chen Yun; these are all students from families with some wealth.

They usually hang out together and talk about things like shoes and watches, and the people Lu Yan offended were mainly from this small group.

At this moment, the second-generation group led by Chen Yun huddled in front of a computer in the classroom, looking at the posts on Tianya with schadenfreude. Chen Yun was the happiest.

"I knew it! Lu Yan gets so many movie roles, he must have gotten them through connections."

Others chimed in, "Exactly! I never expected him to steal someone else's role. He's shameless."

Lu Yan, an ordinary grassroots man with no background, has been starring in movies one after another, which has long sown the seeds of resentment in the hearts of these second-generation rich kids.

Previously, when Lu Yan was at the height of his fame, they had to hide their ulterior motives. Now that negative news about Lu Yan has surfaced, these guys are starting to get restless.

The group spoke very loudly, as if afraid that others wouldn't hear them. Students who were doing other things gathered around when they heard their conversation, and then the scene became chaotic.

Many people were gloating and pointing fingers at Lu Yan. Liu Xiaojian had learned his lesson and didn't take sides this time because he felt that Lu Yan must have a powerful background to be able to steal other people's resources.

If he offends Lu Yan, wouldn't that be a complete waste?

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin were furious. Zhu Yawen wanted to reason with Luo Jin, but Luo Jin held him back. After Chen Yun and his group ridiculed Lu Yan, they turned around and changed the subject to Liu Yifei.

"If you ask me, those of us who want to go professional should take a steady and solid approach like Sisi."

Zhu Yajian and Luo Jin curled their lip and laughed angrily. They were like dogs that can't change their nature, four sycophants.

Liu Yifei, who hadn't intended to speak, now stared intently at Chen Yun.

  

"Chen, have you finished your homework? The final assignment is due in November. Instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself."

The Performing Arts Department started in July, so even though it's only September, the holiday is not far away.

Chen Yun's expression changed drastically, as if he had swallowed a fly. Zhu Yawen and the others burst into laughter, while only Luo Jin revealed a knowing look in his eyes.

If you're cursing Lu Yan here, why are you provoking her in the first place?

Qingyuan Village

On set, we were filming interior scenes today. I was cooped up in the house all day, and finally, when it was time to leave work, I had time to come out and get some fresh air.

He came to the edge of the rice paddy to relax. Not far away, two cows were playing in the mud in the empty field. In another month, it will be the harvest season for the late rice. The rice ears in the field are full of plump, green grains.

The rice grown here is all hybrid rice, and the yield per acre is very good.

Walking in the countryside, Lu Yan could smell the unique scent of water and earth in the air, a scent that belonged only to the fields.

The phone rang.

"Feed?"

Lu Yan answered the phone, and Yu Nan's voice came from the other end: "I found out what you asked me to check. Guo Xiaodong has indeed returned to Shandong, but I don't know what he's doing there."

"What's your contact information?"

"I have his phone number; I'll text you about it later."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yan put it away. The doubts in his mind gradually cleared up. Since Guo Xiaodong had gone back to attend the funeral, it was highly likely that the person behind the trouble was not him.

That's... Wang Miao!

Besides Lu Yan, I really can't think of anyone else who could be the suspect. He is Guo Xiaodong's agent and his interests are deeply intertwined with Guo Xiaodong's. It's either Guo Xiaodong or this guy.

But Guo Xiaodong should also be aware of this matter. To resolve this problem, we need to start with Guo Xiaodong; Wang Miao won't give him the chance.

Just as Lu Yan was about to call Yu Nan, his phone received a text message from Liu.

[The information about Guo Xiaodong that I had my godfather find out]

Upon seeing this message, Lu Yan was quite surprised. After thanking Liu Yifei, he began to examine the clues and actually found some useful information.

Guo Xiaodong's current agency is a small company with little reputation, while Lu Yan should know that Guo Xiaodong is under the management of the famous agent Wang Jinhua.

He also knew that Guo Xiaodong's contract with his current company was about to expire, and that if nothing unexpected happened, it would not be renewed after this.

At this point, all the mysteries became clear. With the contract expiring, Wang Miao should have known that Guo Xiaodong would not renew it, so he wanted to make a quick buck by ruining Guo Xiaodong's future.

After figuring this out, Lu Yan called Guo Xiaodong directly.

Meanwhile, Guo Xiaodong was far away in a remote rural area of ​​Shandong.

Still busy with his father's funeral arrangements, he could only keep himself occupied in order to temporarily forget about his father's passing.

Today, his father's coffin was just laid to rest, and the "master" they hired was still performing rituals. The atmosphere in the house was so oppressive that Guo Xiaodong could hardly breathe.

Guo Xiaodong's phone rang. He picked it up blankly, his eyes vacant and lifeless.

"Who is it?"

"I... am Lu Yan."

Guo Xiaodong's eyes suddenly cleared...

Editing team

The production team persevered through two days of public opinion storm, but ultimately could not withstand the wave of online pressure. Huo Jianqi reluctantly accepted the advice given by the public relations team.

He decided to find the person involved to clarify the situation, and the first person he contacted was Wang Miao. When he said he wanted Guo Xiaodong to cooperate in issuing a statement, Wang Miao said that Guo Xiaodong was currently under contract and did not have time to refuse.

Huo Jianqi knew that Wang Miao had ulterior motives. After some discussion, Wang Miao demanded a penalty of 100,000 yuan for breach of contract.

Huo Jianqi did not agree immediately, but chose to discuss it, which led to the scene of a group of people sitting on small stools smoking.

"I don't think we should give this money."

The producer knows best the budget of each department in the production team. The remaining money is for publicity and distribution later. Giving money means deducting money from other departments, and it's being used for this kind of thing. He can't accept it.

Huo Jianqi couldn't accept it either, but if he didn't pay, the trouble would be even bigger.

"If you say you won't give money, what about the Golden Rooster Awards?"

"That's right, this has no impact on our participation in the Tokyo Film Festival, but what about back home?"

As long as we want to penetrate the domestic market, we cannot afford to be boycotted by netizens, because they are the main consumer group.

Huo Jianqi's words left everyone speechless, and they all sighed and felt aggrieved.

"Give it to me! The situation is beyond our control. Let's pay you to put an end to this. Ten thousand it is fine. I'll just pay for it myself."

Huo Jianqi made the final decision to swallow this bitter pill, but this matter is not over yet!

"Call Wang Miao."

Huo Jianqi doesn't want to have anything to do with Wang Miao, that despicable person, because he's afraid he'll lose his temper and start cursing.

They didn't break any industry rules; it was Wang Miao who broke them. They were just selecting the best candidates, which is a normal thing. But Wang Miao and Guo Xiaodong, those two scoundrels, sabotaged things behind the scenes when they weren't selected.

Who will dare to publicly announce casting results in the future?

The phone was on speakerphone, and Wang Miao's annoying voice came through the phone, prompting everyone present to mentally curse his ancestors for eighteen generations.

"Hey, Producer Wang, Director Huo, have you thought this through? Sigh, if you'd done this earlier, we wouldn't have wasted so much time..."

"Yes, yes, yes... We agree to 100,000, that's it..."

Just as Producer Wang and Wang Miao were discussing the details, the crew's executive assistant suddenly rushed into the yard!

"Director Huo... Good news! Check the forum!"

"We don't need to pay!"
