Chapter 351
This call was made to the headquarters of Skybound Entertainment.
This year, Skybound Entertainment’s momentum is fiercer than Primeval Light Media’s, just because the first few places in the group “Youth 101” are all from Skybound Entertainment, as well as Ye Xi, a popular female top streamer.
But in reality, it’s because Primeval Light Media has already expanded its market to the international film and music industry a few years ago, and international film queens like Xie Manyu are no longer playing in the country.
Shang Yaozhi, a top-stream movie star, has also started to reach out internationally after joining Primeval Light Media.
In terms of influence, there is still no way for Skybound Entertainment to compete with Primeval Light Media.
Last year, Skybound Entertainment was hitching a ride on Time Media, an international entertainment company, just to compete with Primeval Media.
This is why Skybound Entertainment is looking at this time for Youth 202, they want to create stars artificially, how can they create another male top stream, not to mention overpowering Shang Yaozhi, how can they also
“What’s going on with producer Li?” Chen Li frowned, “Why should he care?”
“Sister Pear, I asked, it was First Light Media who called.” The a*sistant on the other end of the phone said, “It said that there was injustice in the competition, and if it wasn’t dealt with, they would withdraw their funding.”
Chen Li: “Then let them pull out, who’s afraid? Don’t we have any investment?”
“But, but Sister Pear …… First Light Media has invested six hundred million.” The a*sistant wiped his sweat, “We only invested two hundred million, and the company’s money is tight recently, if Primeval Media withdraws its investment, this will ……”
Chen Li’s face was blue and white, and under his anger, he threw out a sentence, “I’ll say it straight, like the first light media, sooner or later will be finished.”
In the era of big traffic, who still adheres to the rules?
All they need is a little hype, and they don’t even need to be strong, and they can draw a lot of money.
First Light Media was still under the banner of only training actors and singers, and Chen Li was sure that it would eventually be replaced by their Skybound Entertainment.
Chen Li was so furious that she thought about it and dialed another number.
No matter what, she had to try to stop Yun and Yue from entering the competition.
**
In the middle of January, the second phase of the isc training camp also opened.
Ying left the Ling family mansion and moved to a flat in the training camp.
Because Xiu Yan had been kicked out last time, there was an extra spot for another true school god and the atmosphere was much better.
“Cla*smate Ying.” Zuo Li greeted her happily after not seeing her for a few months, he specifically took off his hat, “Look at my hair, is it dark and dense?”
He was already the pup with the most hair among their physics department professors.
Ying Ziji looked at his messy bird’s nest-like hair: “……”
She felt she needed to ask the Shao Ren Hospital side to change Zuo Li’s hair growth shampoo, to a hair loss cream.
“Professor Helvin has called me a few times.” Zuo Li put her hat back on and grumbled a little, “Why did you promise him you’d go to his lab? We knew each other first, right?”
Ying Ziyi glanced at him, not slowing down, “Because he’s the highest expert in the field of quantum mechanics.”
“That’s fine.” Zuo Li thought for a moment, “You’re from China anyway, and you’ll have to come back, just as well, you’ll learn all his techniques and come back to teach me in secret.”
Ying Ziji pondered for a moment, “But there’s no telling, I’ll go to the Imperial Capital too, we’ll see then.”
She wanted to settle the matter of Wen Fengmian, nothing else was as important as her relatives.
Zuo Li nodded, “Anyway, I’ve also given you the title of a*sociate professor in the physics department, so you can come whenever you want.”
Ying nodded and went upstairs.
The phone rang at that moment, it was Jiang Yan calling.
“Father Ying, listen to me.” His voice was unprecedentedly serious, “Never, ever talk to anyone about you saving me, it’s enough for Xiu Yu and me to know about this, otherwise, your life will be in danger.”
Ying Zigui paused in her expression, her eyebrows raised.
She suddenly had the feeling that she was being cared for by her son.
“I know.” Ying Ziyi was bashful, “Don’t worry, no one will believe it either.”
Jiang Yan: “……”
He couldn’t refute this statement.
Ancient medicine was like ancient martial arts, it had to be accumulated over a long period of years and months.
Except for some very talented ones, it was generally the older generation that was more powerful.
Jiang Yan had also met many geniuses.
There were more men in ancient martial arts and more women in ancient medicine.
There were three very young ancient doctors in the ancient medicine world, all of them women, and none of them were more than twenty-five years old this year.
In particular, Lin Qingjia, the stepdaughter of Lin Jingyun, the head of the Lin family, was highly gifted in ancient martial arts, on the other hand, she was also strong in medicine.
So even though her mother was also an ordinary person, no one in the Lin family dared to pop a word.
After all, there were so few people who were trained in both ancient medicine and ancient martial arts that not even one person could emerge in decades.
But Jiang Yan had never seen someone like Ying Zidian, not a genius, but a god.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, no one would really believe it.
“Father Ying, you don’t know.” Jiang Yan added, “The old ancestor of the Fu family actually gave my mother a face-raising pill that can prolong her life by eighty years.”
Ying Zidian’s eyes stared slightly, “The ‘vu’ of this and that?”
“Yes.” Jiang Yan muttered, “That old ancestor is not even know how many rounds older than my dad, my dad was terrified, a Shi Fengyi, it’s not that valuable, it’s strange.”
Ying Ziji didn’t say anything more, she fell silent.
She had deduced the reason for what had happened.
Fu Shi, the disciple, was good at everything, but sometimes she was too generous and didn’t know how to take care of herself at all.
A medicine that prolongs life by eighty years will break down one’s own body essence.
Ying Ziji put down her phone and pressed her head.
If necessary, she still had to make a trip to the ancient medical world.
**
On the morning of January 23, Youth 202 released the photos of the 101 contestants.
Some were fine-tuned, some were not.
Yunhe Yue didn’t, but she killed the other contestants with a plain face instead.
[Crap, I’m dead, what kind of stunningly beautiful boy is this, this face, shark me!
The first thing you need to know is that this contestant is called Yunhe Yue, he is 20 years old, a solo trainee, and he is a great singer and dancer, there are dance clips of him on the b site, and he sings super well!
[Vote for him, such a stunningly beautiful boy must debut!
The internet is buzzing with excitement and ‘Youth 202’ is also being recorded this afternoon and will be edited and put on the grapevine at the end of the week.
At this time, the contestants are lining up for make-up.
The programme team has allocated a special make-up artist and has also a*signed make-up rooms.
Ying Ziyang still acts as an a*sistant and follows Yunheyue in.
Yun He Yue typed to her.
[Sister, I’m going to the washroom, wait for me.
Ying Ziyi nodded, went into the dressing room first and sat down.
At that moment, a staff member walked in, flaming: ”Who let you in? This is Sister Ye Xi’s special dressing room, can you afford to pay if you break anything?”
Ying Ziyi turned her head, her eyes light, her pupils as bright as snow: “A special dressing room, and deliberately a*signed to a contestant?”
The staff member cowered a little, but still pretended to be tough: “So what if it’s deliberate?”
Ying ignored him, picked up her mobile phone and gave it to the female secretary: “Ask a gold medal make-up artist to come over to the make-up room vacated by the company, and bring a set of the best make-up, I’ll bring someone over.”
First Light Media was only ten minutes away and moved quickly.
The only bad thing about not having the power of divine calculation was that it would waste her time.
But luckily, counting the time, it was almost back.
Ying Ziji got up and went out of the dressing room.
Yun and Yue were just returning, and her eyes held a questioning look.
“Gone.” Ying Ziyi looked detached, “The cosmetics here are too cheap, let’s change the place for you.”
Where could Yunhe Yue not understand what was happening, she held up her phone, and on it was a sentence.
[Sister, I’ll definitely work hard to earn money for you!]
**
Inside the dressing room.
The staff rearranged the chairs and snorted coldly, “What are you pretending to be, you really think you are some kind of company boss, chit.”
An a*sistant, what a nice way to pretend.
Five minutes later, Ye Xi arrived at the dressing room.
This was indeed Ye Xi’s special dressing room, she was the promoter of the male group this time and brought a lot of talk to the show.
“Sister Xi.” Her a*sistant helped her carry her bag, “Sister Pear deliberately allocated Yun and Yue’s dressing room to you, won’t it really affect you in any way? He’s very popular online,”
“How can Sister Pear say that she is also my uncle.” Ye Xi lightly, “This little thing can still help her, and if something happens, it’s also the program team’s responsibility.”
Saying that, she picked up the isolation and foundation aside and began to apply makeup.
After the foundation, she picked up the concealer again.
The a*sistant suddenly spoke in a shocked voice: “Sister Xi, you, your neck ……”
“What?” Ye Xi shifted the mirror down, her hand shook and the mirror smashed on the table.
At her neck, there was one red spot after another, and these red spots were still growing and had reached her chin.
Ye Xi jerked up and snapped, “Who has been in here? Moved my make-up?!”
The show was to be recorded in the afternoon, how could she go and host with this appearance?
On the side, the staff was also stunned.
As if he suddenly thought of something, he shouted, “There! Yun He Yue’s a*sistant!”
The a*sistant was also on fire: “Then why don’t you bring the person quickly? Sister Xi’s face is insured, it’s not enough for her to lose her life!”
Ye Xi was on fire right now, she and Shang Yaozhi still had quite a few cp fans, and these cp fans were even more capable of fighting than her own fans.
When something like this happened, the fans could tear Yunhe Yue’s a*sistant alive.
Yunhe Yue would have to go down with them.
Chapter 352
As the show starts recording in the afternoon, all contestants will be required to complete their make-up in the morning and stay in a closed training camp prepared by the show’s team.
As with Youth 101, the contestants were not allowed to enter or leave the camp without permission during the talent show, and they had to hand in their mobile phones and other communication devices.
This unexpected situation of Ye Xi made it tricky for the programme’s director and producer.
She was the promoter of the male group this time, and was more than responsible for hosting the entire talent show.
Moreover, back on January 1, in order to attract a large number of viewers, the programme team had already released the announcement that Ye Xi was the promoter of the boy band.
The following were all Ye Xi fans in a frenzy, and the heat of the show was raised a lot as a result.
The mentor had not been announced and could still be changed on the fly, what about the male group promoter?
Chen Li also hurriedly came from outside the venue, with a cold face, “Producer Li, we must pursue this matter to the end, Yun He Yue and her a*sistant, none of them will be spared.”
Production Manager Li had always been aware of the crooked ways of the entertainment industry.
He had also seen a lot of them and had always turned a blind eye to them.
After listening to the staff member finish what had happened earlier, Producer Li couldn’t help but frown: “A small a*sistant of someone else, is it necessary to do something to the top flow? If they were really found out, wouldn’t it be the end?”
Every Top Flow’s fan base was so huge that it was terrifying, and none of those veteran artists could compare.
But anyone with a brain wouldn’t do that.
“How is it more than just Yu?” Chen Li laughed coldly and sarcastically, “This is some people who are narrow-minded and want revenge, revenge on our Xixi.”
Li remembered the interview that day and his face sank, “You didn’t start it on purpose?”
He was scolded by his father for causing him to lose his head.
Chen Li didn’t expect her to lose face even in front of so many people, so she looked cold: “Producer Li, these are two different things, obviously-”
“And what nonsense are you talking about?” The director had to come out and interrupt the two of them arguing, “First, send Teacher Ye to the hospital, the action must be stealthy, other matters, let’s talk about it later.”
He added to the crew. “And you, go and pull up the CCTV and see what really happened in the dressing room.”
If the paparazzi caught Ye Xi’s red spots on her skin, the internet would be a fishy mess again.
Even Ye Xi’s rival family would have the marketing numbers create rumours that Ye Xi was disfigured or pregnant.
Chen Li also knew this clearly.
Right now it was still Ye Xi who was most important.
“Xie Xi, go.” Chen Li spoke coldly, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you get justice back.”
Ye Xi sullenly responded and got into the nanny car.
**
On the other hand, the headquarters of First Light Media in the imperial capital.
Yun He Yue followed Ying Ziyi up in the exclusive lift, unseen by the other employees.
The exclusive lift went straight to the thirty-second floor, where the female secretary had been waiting for a long time.
She was following Ying Ziyi on both sides of the fence and had only arrived in the city from Shanghai a short while ago.
When the lift door opened, the female secretary bowed: “Boss, things have been prepared as you said, and then-”
When she looked up, she saw the teenager following behind the girl and was more shocked than surprised, taking a violent step back: “Boss, why have you brought my other son?!”
“……”
Ying Ziyi glanced at her and tossed the phone in her hand, “I’ll call Shang Yaozhi now.”
“No, no, no, make it impossible.” The female secretary covered her heart, “I still love him the most, it’s just that I’ve been climbing the walls recently, just for a little while.”
Yunhe Yue revealed a light smile, clean and clear.
The female secretary’s motherly love suddenly flooded her. After she followed Ying Ziyang and sent Yun He Yue into the dressing room, she asked, “Boss, are you going to sign him?”
Apart from Yu Xuesheng and Ying Zidian, no one knew that Yunheyue was actually a girl.
The female secretary didn’t see it either.
First Light Media had also approached Yunhe Yue and tried to sign her up, but was still rejected.
“No.” Ying Ziyi faded, “The terms of the contract, even if it’s good, is still a leash, she doesn’t need it.”
The female secretary thought about it and understood.
The entertainment industry was a big dye bath, and there were too few people as clean as Yunhe Yue.
“But it’s possible to open an independent studio for her.” Ying Ziji said, “When the competition is over, prepare it.”
This way, it would be able to give Yunhe Yue a better space to develop.
Shang Yaozhi was a triple star, but in fact his singing skills were just ordinary.
Yun He Yue
“Boss.” The female secretary checked the message and she suddenly said, “Youth 202 just sent out a notice saying that the competition has to be postponed due to an emergency.”
Looking at it, she gave another eek, “It’s Teacher Ye’s health problem, they’ve all gone to the hospital.”
Ying Ziji sniffed and her eyebrows twitched.
Her sense of smell was very acute, so when she entered the dressing room, she smelt a faint fragrance.
The fragrance came from a very common herb, but when added to cosmetics, it would react with some chemicals and make people allergic.
Even if that staff member didn’t kick Yun and Yue out, she wouldn’t stay any longer.
“I hope her face will heal soon.” The female secretary folded her hands, “Don’t let our investment go down the drain.”
Ye Xi was not an artist of Primeval Light Media and often tied up Shang Yaozhi, the female secretary did not have a good feeling about her.
It was her boss’s money she was worried about when Ye Xi went into hospital.
“Just enough time to prepare.” Ying Ziyi thought for a moment, “For a few days, let He Yue stay with me in my office first, and give her a few bodyguards.”
The president’s office came with a suite of its own, comparable to a five-star hotel.
The female secretary nodded and went down to prepare.
**
Ye Xi was indeed allergic.
It did look horrible at first, but it cleared up the next day.
It was just that Ye Xi couldn’t swallow it at all.
She had never been respected after she burst onto the scene in the first half of the year, where else would anyone dare to put their hands on her?
But to her dismay, neither the director nor producer Li had any intention of firing Yun and Yue.
Chen Li used her privilege to have Tian Xing Entertainment bring Yun He Yue’s number and address from the programme team.
However, the number did not get through.
“It must be this Yunhe Yue who instructed his a*sistant to do it.” Chen Li sneered, “At that time, he was looking for him at the training camp, he couldn’t even be found, and now he’s not answering his phone, what is it if he’s not absconding from the crime?”
Ye Xi closed his eyes, very tired and did not want to talk.
Chen Li asked the driver to go directly to Yunhe Yue’s home.
“This Yunhe Yue, is an orphan.” Chen Li looked at the address and frowned, “I didn’t think there was money to live in such a house, and I don’t know what means were used to get it.”
This single flat that Yu Xuesheng bought for Yunhe Yue was far from the city centre, outside the third ring road.
Although it was a second-hand house, a set would cost six million towards the top.
After all, Yunhe Yue’s mental state was problematic and different from that of a healthy person, and the environment played an important role.
Only Yun and Yue had been living in the First Light Media building since yesterday, and now it was Ying Ziyi who lived in this single flat.
There are some things that can be deduced without the ability of divine calculation, but with careful consideration of the brain.
Chen Li would not be willing to give up.
With Ye Xi as an excuse, she could take action against Yunhe Yue directly.
That was why Ying Ziji had asked Yunhe Yue to stay in her office.
Of course, it was best if Chen Li didn’t come, to save her the trouble.
Ying Zidian leaned back on the sofa, relaxing and watching TV, when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Tsk.
She still had to be bothered.
She lifted her eyes, took the mask from the table and put it on.
Then she got up and answered the door.
Not surprisingly, there were Chen Li and Ye Xi outside the door, with seven or eight bodyguards standing behind them.
“Only you’re here? That’s fine.” Chen Li looked at the girl coldly, “You’ve tampered with my artist’s face, do you know how much insurance was put on Xi Xi’s face? Two hundred million!”
“I couldn’t even afford to pay for it if I sold you!”
“That’s funny.” Ying Ziji leaned against the door, her eyes flickering, landing on Ye Xi’s face, seemingly adding a bit of interest, “Are you worthy to let me do it to you?”
If she really poisoned Ye Xi, not only would any instrument not be able to detect it, but she could also make Ye Xi disappear without a sound.
But she had closed her hand for many years and was now a good doctor.
Ye Xi’s expression changed all of a sudden.
She had set up the persona of an innocent fairy in the entertainment industry, and the persona had been set up for a long time, so she couldn’t take it off.
She had never been angry with others, even the staff.
But Ying Ziji’s words were clearly an insult.
A small a*sistant could look down on her like that?
Ye Xi’s body trembled and her eyes turned red as she turned her head, “Sister Pear.”
“You really have a big mouth, you don’t see the coffin and don’t shed a tear? I advise you to be sensible.” Chen Li was also furious, “Still wearing a mask in the house, can’t you see anyone? Take it off!”
With that, she went straight to her hand.
