Caught in Affairs with Superstar
Chapter 1236 - 669: Action Movie
Sui Yu asked exaggeratedly, "Zhou Lan, what’s going on with you? Suddenly calling to criticize."
Zhou Lan: "Why I’m calling, you don’t know? You said in the interview that our Xiao Yun is lucky, relying on Song Chi?"
"Come on, so it’s about this matter? Why are you making such a big deal out of it? Didn’t you see that I also mentioned at the end that Xiao Yun’s acting skills are undoubtedly good?"
"Let’s not fool each other with this vague writing style. I’m calling just to confirm whether you were set up by the reporter. From your tone, it seems you weren’t intentionally set up, so don’t blame me."
Zhou Lan directly hung up the phone.
Sui Yu dared to openly mock Zhou Yun, so don’t blame her.
In the past, Wei Ru Xue started out at Chengqian Entertainment, and what did she rely on to grab resources when she debuted? Does she think others don’t know?
Zhou Lan was about to make a call when Sui Yu called again.
Zhou Lan directly hung up the phone.
That afternoon, some marketing accounts revealed the old story of Wei Ru Xue using her connections to snatch another actress’s leading role.
This incident was exposed back then but Chengqian Entertainment suppressed it.
Now, its revival is Zhou Lan’s doing.
Only at this point did Zhou Lan answer Sui Yu’s call.
Sui Yu, sounding frustrated, said, "Do you have to do this?"
"Sister Yu, let me correct you, you started it first." Zhou Lan was feeling quite pleased, "If you hadn’t started the attack, no one would have dug up these things."
"Fine, now we’re even, right?"
"Even? Sorry, it can’t be considered even. I only dug up a bit of Wei Ru Xue’s past gossip, but your interview is constantly creating a negative impression of Xiao Yun," Zhou Lan said. "You’re an agent too, do you think I can allow this to happen?"
Sui Yu was annoyed: "Then what do you want me to do?"
"Publicly apologize, clarify that what you meant was not what the interview implied," Zhou Lan said, "Otherwise, the next piece of old news that gets exposed won’t be so simple."
After saying this, Zhou Lan hung up the phone without waiting for Sui Yu’s response.
About half an hour later, Sui Yu posted a clarification statement on her Weibo. The gist was that her interview was not suggesting Zhou Yun achieved her current success solely by relying on Song Chi. If Zhou Yun didn’t have her own strength, she wouldn’t succeed even with ten Song Chis. She simply didn’t want people to always compare different actors, as each actor has unique opportunities and life experiences, and such comparisons hurt everyone.
Zhou Lan quickly put her on a trending topic, placing her in the top ten.
Seeing herself on the trending list, Sui Yu was livid.
At the same time, she felt a bit regretful because the success of Wei Ru Xue’s "Flying with Phoenix" made her forget herself for a moment, which led to trouble for herself and Wei Ru Xue.
Of course, what Sui Yu feared most was that Zhou Lan’s methods now were entirely different from two years ago. This series of actions left her completely defenseless.
Every move lethal.
Sui Yu thought to herself, in the future, there might be a fierce battle with her.
...
On the phone, Zhou Yun listened to Zhou Lan explaining the whole incident and laughed, saying, "Sui Yu wants to defend Wei Ru Xue, doesn’t she? These past two years, many have said that while Wei Ru Xue’s drama achievements are great, she’s limited to the TV domain, leading many to believe her status isn’t on par with some movie actors."
"Isn’t this the contempt chain in the film and TV industry? Sui Yu is not happy, she can criticize this phenomenon, but what does it mean to pinpoint you directly?" Zhou Lan said. "She just thinks that since we haven’t attacked others for the past two years, even if she says this, we would swallow our pride."
Zhou Yun asked, "But the ratings for ’Flying with Phoenix’ are so good, isn’t she afraid of attracting negativity for Wei Ru Xue at this time?"
"You guessed right, Su Yan, Xu Siyao, and Lew Qingqing all made a move," Zhou Lan said. "They’re vying for a major endorsement. Su Yan originally had the advantage, but once ’With the Wind’ aired, the brand leaned towards Wei Ru Xue."
