These entertainment bloggers, no idea where they got their information, directly stirred things up and got themselves on the trending searches—
The trending topic was very simple, just three words: “Ye Shaohua.”
“Exposing the disgusting things the chairman of Feisheng Entertainment has done. It starts with me. Boycott ‘All Gods’ Sky.'”
These bloggers posted screenshots of financial records and money laundering details. Netizens were happily following the drama, and when they looked into it, they found that the evidence these entertainment bloggers had put out was actually real.
In particular, that tragic bombing case from many years ago was brought back up as well.
Back then, quite a few police officers lost their lives, and countless ordinary people were killed or injured. It was called the “December Incident.”
Someone also posted pictures of the scene from back then.
As soon as all of this came out, every netizen immediately exploded.
“How can a crappy company like this not go bankrupt or get arrested? How much backing do they have?”
“‘All Gods’ Sky’? More like ‘All Crap’! Hell is empty, and devils are here on earth!”
“The thing I hate seeing the most right now is stuff like this. I feel indignant for those innocent people who were hurt, and even more so for the anti-drug police who can’t go home or acknowledge their own children. If Feisheng Entertainment doesn’t fall, the public will never agree!”
“How utterly immoral. No wonder our Yu Qingjiu and those other artists insisted on terminating their contracts with Feisheng Entertainment. Not only did they exploit our dear brother, but they’re this disgusting too! YSH, go die already!”
“Stop filming ‘All Gods’ Sky’! I’d rather throw my money away than watch this garbage movie!”
“…”
Director Yu naturally found out about everything happening in the Chinese entertainment industry.
Especially since these people were also going to his Weibo page to curse him out.
“Director Yu, I used to respect you as the only Chinese director with international standing, but now, heh, you wouldn’t happen to be laundering money for Feisheng Entertainment too, would you?”
“…”
Every single person involved in ‘All Gods’ Sky’ came under attack from netizens across the country.
Everyone in the industry had gotten the news.
“Qingjiu, it turns out it was true,” Yu Qingjiu’s agent said immediately upon hearing the news, and started packing things up. “The entertainment industry is blacklisting Feisheng Entertainment right now. Forget whether ‘All Gods’ Sky’ can even sell—the question is whether filming can continue at all. The higher-ups have already spoken: they’re terminating the contract with the ‘All Gods’ Sky’ production team.”
Yu Qingjiu was browsing Weibo.
He had heard some rumors a while ago, but he was just a bit surprised now. He hadn’t expected this matter to be so serious.
Thinking about it, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had terminated his contract with Feisheng Entertainment earlier. Otherwise, he would definitely be dragged down by them right now.
He told his agent to arrange the remaining formalities while reposting a Weibo post expressing sorrow over Feisheng Entertainment’s vile behavior.
As he left the production team, he saw Qu Ran, who was once the envy of everyone, and let out a small laugh.
This time, there was no jealousy left in him.
Who knew if Qu Ran could even get himself out of this mess? Even if he did, he’d be blacklisted across the entire industry. As for surpassing him, Yu Qingjiu—that would probably never happen in this lifetime!
Before this matter was even over, Ye Meng posted a Weibo—
“My mother was the undercover agent back then. Since that day, I have never seen my mother again.”
This post pushed the public’s anger to its peak.
Online, people were comforting Ye Meng on one hand and cursing Ye Shaohua and Feisheng Entertainment on the other.
“Little sister, don’t be sad. Auntie is in heaven. I hope that devil gets thrown into hell soon.”
By the time Ye Meng posted this Weibo, all the entertainment companies that had invested in ‘All Gods’ Sky’ had pulled their funding. Moreover, the entertainment company Yu Qingjiu was now with even reposted Ye Meng’s Weibo.
The other artists who had previously been with Feisheng Entertainment but terminated their contracts also reposted it one after another.
This was how the original storyline went too. The original owner, who knew nothing, was still driven into prison by public opinion even when the evidence was insufficient. Not even the employees of Feisheng Entertainment were spared.
In the entire entertainment industry, not a single person dared to speak up for Feisheng!
As for the truth… who among those gossiping netizens cared?
Ye Shaohua clenched her fists. Being in this situation, she finally understood why, when she first arrived in this world, the original owner’s grief and anger had been strong enough to affect her.
“Are you okay?” Yun Qinghe, who was far abroad, sent a video call. “Do you need…”
“No,” Ye Shaohua shook her head, her eyes full of cold determination. “It’s time to end this.”
Yun Qinghe knew what she was capable of and didn’t doubt her. He just reminded her, “If you run into any problems, tell me directly.”
Li Wen and the managers at Feisheng hadn’t left.
“President Ye, more people have terminated their contracts,” Li Wen said in a low voice.
Because investors pulled out, filming of ‘All Gods’ Sky’ had stopped. Qu Ran had also rushed back from abroad. He hadn’t terminated his contract with Feisheng. The first thing he did upon returning was check on the company’s current situation.
Feisheng Entertainment hadn’t issued a single statement since the incident started.
Ye Shaohua looked up at them. “You’re not leaving?”
“Of course not,” Qu Ran said calmly, looking at her. “I’ve got nothing left anyway. Might as well go a little crazy.”
Li Wen said, sounding puzzled, “President Ye, we never did any of those things in the first place, right?”
As for Director Yu and the artists like Qu Ran who hadn’t terminated their contracts with Feisheng, they were all getting torn to shreds online.
That’s how the entertainment industry works. No one cares about the truth. Netizens can only see the content that those marketing accounts push.
Everyone who had previously wanted to collaborate with ‘All Gods’ Sky’ had gone silent.
Everyone shared the same thought: Feisheng was finished.
But unexpectedly, Director Yu, who had returned to the country, suddenly posted a Weibo—
“To anyone who has read the script of ‘All Gods’ Sky’: I cannot believe that Ye Shaohua, the person who could write something like this, would be such a person.”
This Weibo post made netizens absolutely furious. They all thought Director Yu had lost his mind.
“Haha, you don’t believe it? Then go find someone to invest, why don’t you?”
“Director Yu, isn’t this embarrassing for you? No one’s investing now. Are you mad?”
“…”
Ye Meng looked at these posts, leaned back in her chair, and smiled. The frustration in her heart finally eased. She even called Ye Shaohua. “Ye Shaohua, how does it feel right now?”
“Ye Meng, did I forget to tell you? I have a lot of alternate identities,” Ye Shaohua replied calmly.
“What?” Ye Meng was stunned. Before she could ask anything else, Ye Shaohua hung up the call.
The next second, right as netizens were mocking her, Ye Shaohua herself spoke up.
V Ye Shaohua: My movie doesn’t need anyone’s investment. As for the truth of the matter… see you tomorrow!
After posting this Weibo, Ye Shaohua stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the building, looking down at the bustling traffic below. She turned her head and said to the three people standing in her office: “Don’t worry. You trust me so much. How could I not bring you to the very top and live up to that trust?”
The entertainment industry, huh? It was time for someone else to sit on the throne of the entertainment king.
