Chapter 445: Big Explosion (10,000-word update!)
Li Zhibai's filming for *Moonlight Symphony* was much easier than Yan Liang's *Gold Rush*.
For him, the hardest part of this play was that some lines were really too cheesy, and he needed to overcome a great psychological barrier to be able to say them.
However, this was also really related to the actor's image.
For an image like Li Zhibai's, if you let him act in *Gold Rush*, he could act, but it definitely wouldn't be as effective as Yan Liang's tough temperament.
And if Yan Liang's image were to act in *Moonlight Symphony*, it couldn't be said it wouldn't work, but this play wouldn't be as consistent with the girls' expectations for the male lead.
Therefore, many actors hope their acting range is wider, not to be thought by others that they can only act in a certain kind of role, and from then on be limited within it.
"But I tell you guys, later if you encounter a play with Cheng Siran, it's best to stay as far away from her as possible; this person really has a big illness," Li Zhibai complained.
Cheng Siran was the female lead acting with Li Zhibai in *Moonlight Symphony*.
Previously, Li Zhibai had complained that this female lead had princess syndrome.
Lu Yan He and Yan Liang looked at each other and smiled, asking: "Has this one committed princess syndrome again?"
"That's more than just committing princess syndrome," Li Zhibai said. "You guys probably can't believe what outrageous things she has done."
"What happened?"
"She actually told people that I have a crush on her! I scolded her for having a sick brain, and she said I didn't dare to admit it because I wasn't a man. Is this person sick?"
Lu Yan He and Yan Liang were both shocked.
This matter... they were hearing it for the first time; they hadn't heard of it at all before.
"When did this happen?"
"Just yesterday, when filming wrapped up," Li Zhibai said. "Damn, why do I always encounter such weirdos when filming?"
Lu Yan He thought for a moment, not daring to say the guess in his heart.
Yan Liang: "Should you go and get your fortune told? It seems it really is true; from Meng Li to Cheng Siran, the probability of you encountering weirdos is a bit high."
Li Zhibai asked: "Haven't you guys encountered such weirdos when filming?"
Lu Yan He shook his head: "It seems I really haven't encountered them much."
Yan Liang: "At most, I encounter some people who are difficult to deal with, but it doesn't reach the point of... truly affecting me like Meng Li and Cheng Siran."
"Yan Liang, is Teacher Wan Yun, who acted in *Gold Rush* with you, easy to deal with?" Li Zhibai suddenly asked.
Yan Liang: "He is still quite aloof. When I first met him, he didn't pay much attention to me. I guess he thought I was an idol actor, not a serious actor. Later, after getting a bit more familiar, it got a bit better."
"I heard when I was filming that when he films, he has very strict requirements for cooperating actors; Cheng Siran was scolded to tears by him," Li Zhibai curled his lips, as if mentioning this made him happy.
Yan Liang: "This time I didn't encounter him scolding people; he just didn't communicate much with other actors."
Although *Gold Rush* was billed as a dual-male lead, in reality, Wan Yun was the first-billed male lead of *Gold Rush*, and Yan Liang was only the second-billed male lead.
And the relationship between other actors in *Gold Rush* and Wan Yun wasn't any better than Yan Liang's.
It was probably also because this play was filmed too bitterly, so after everyone finished work and went back, they basically didn't think about going out to meet up, just resting directly.
Seizing every opportunity to rest.
Lu Yan He: "That's fine, as long as it's not the kind of person who intentionally looks for trouble."
Li Zhibai: "I think it's normal for Cheng Siran to be scolded."
"Why was she scolded?" Lu Yan He asked.
"It seems it was said that she hadn't memorized her lines, and when acting, she kept stuttering and couldn't go on, so she was scolded."
"That's really..." Lu Yan He originally wanted to say she deserved it.
Yan Liang: "By the way, speaking of which, I remembered one thing: Meng Li seems to be with the director of our *Gold Rush*."
"What?"
"Have you guys met Wu Zhouyou, the director of our *Gold Rush*?" Yan Liang asked.
Lu Yan He and Li Zhibai both shook their heads.
Yan Liang said: "A very young director, in his early thirties, and a very talented director. Even Wan Yun praised him privately, saying 'he is a rare director among young directors who understands acting.' But whether they are officially together, I don't know. It's just that Meng Li came to our place for some work, and after work, she came to the hotel to meet us. I heard it from the crew staff; they suspect Meng Li is secretly with the director."
Li Zhibai immediately said: "Your director must have water in his brain to be with that crazy woman Meng Li."
Yan Liang smiled, "Who knows."
"It should be true," Lu Yan He suddenly raised his phone and said.
"Ah?" Yan Liang was stunned.
Lu Yan He said: "There is a forum called 'Spring Bud' that has all kinds of revelations. I checked it, and several people with high credit scores have said this matter, saying the two of them are dating."
Li Zhibai: "Is that the forum you mentioned that is full of anonymous revelations?"
"Right," Lu Yan He nodded.
Li Zhibai suddenly remembered something: "Then search for my name and see if there are any latest revelations about me."
"... Your latest revelation? Have you done anything recently?"
"No."
"If not, what revelations could there be?"
"Search and see, maybe there are some interesting things."
"You have a problem."
After talking back and forth, they finally searched it.
The result was—
Seriously suspecting Li Zhibai is gay.
Li Zhibai petrified on the spot for a few seconds, his anger rushing to his head: "What the hell!"
He spent two coins to look at the person's evidence, and the person said:
It is said that big beauties like Meng Li and Cheng Siran are unclear with him and release goodwill, but Li Zhibai is hard-hearted and unmoved.
Li Zhibai: "F*ck him!"
Lu Yan He and Yan Liang laughed until their faces twitched.
Truly an unexpected joy.
On the last day of May, Chen Ziyan took Lu Yan He for another check-up.
Waiting for the check-up results again, Lu Yan He was still quite nervous.
If the values were still very high, that would be terrible.
Fortunately, the check-up results came out, and the values had dropped a lot.
"Much better," the doctor said. "It seems our previous judgment was not wrong; it was just that there were too many various jobs during that period, causing him a huge burden that he didn't even realize himself. In the future, don't oppress yourself so much. Yan He, a person's endurance is not necessarily as powerful as one imagines."
Lu Yan He's face was embarrassed.
Being said like this by the doctor, it was really quite awkward.
Chen Ziyan also let out a long sigh of relief.
"Actually, it's normal for a person to be under great pressure for a short time. You might think you didn't stay up late and didn't have other symptom expressions, so it's fine, but I think your pressure suddenly exploded because you were facing seven or eight very important things at the same time. The burden brought to you by these things superimposed together is not a simple addition or subtraction; it might even be exponential growth," the doctor said. "Coordinate the things you want to do well. Don't think you are a machine that can run multi-threaded—even this computer of mine crashes from time to time because it processes too many programs at the same time."
Lu Yan He said "um" and thanked him.
Chen Ziyan said: "In the future, I will take him for a check-up every once in a while. The most annoying thing about him is that you can't see anything from his surface."
Regardless, the check-up results showed that Lu Yan He's situation had improved, which was a good thing.
The crux of this matter was that Lu Yan He had too many identities and too many different aspects to deal with.
Chen Ziyan only arranged two jobs for Lu Yan He in June: one was a magazine cover shoot for an endorsed brand, and one was an offline gala event.
Besides these two jobs, Lu Yan He stayed at school to prepare for final exams.
Chen Siqi said that from now on, she wouldn't let Lu Yan He manage *Jump Up* matters, and since then, basically all matters of *Jump Up* didn't come to him. Previously, he was also responsible for the final review before printing, but now the final review had nothing to do with him either. Lu Yan He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
However, because of this, Lu Yan He found that his rhythm really slowed down at once.
It was no longer that every time he opened his phone, there were many jobs to deal with, and there were no longer many deadlines urging him to hurry up and handle them without stopping.
Lu Yan He started to have a fixed habit of taking a nap.
Sometimes when a few people were free, they would play games with Li Zhibai and Yan Liang, purely for fun.
He didn't even know when he had stopped doing things without practical meaning so purely.
For example, playing games, for example, lying on the sofa and daydreaming.
Lu Yan He hadn't had such leisure for a long time.
He found that when there was a lot of work, his mind was full of work, but when there was no work, he didn't feel uncomfortable; he could be idle, and even felt that this was quite good. Much more comfortable than before.
At such times, thinking about the film *Love Letter* again, his state was different.
Lu Yan He suddenly understood why actors like Shang Yongzhou and Chen Bige generally only filmed one play a year, at most two.
Actors need to maintain the best state; this is not the state of going to bed early and getting up early, but the state of being able to mobilize one's greatest subjective initiative, perception, and expressive power.
Techniques can be polished, but the state cannot.
The "Accumulate Power Plan" done by *Jump Up* together with Arctic Light Video released a recruitment order in early June.
Lu Yan He still served as the convener.
However, basically, he didn't need to do anything.
The work Lu Yan He did was to record a video welcoming young directors and people aspiring to become directors to sign up for the "Accumulate Power Plan."
This "Accumulate Power Plan" caused a great shock in the circle.
Because before this, except for some specialized youth film festivals, no platform or magazine like *Jump Up* had ever initiated a selection plan for young directors.
People even took out real money to support these young directors to film.
As soon as the "Accumulate Power Plan" was released, Lu Yan He immediately posted a Moments update:
Although I am the convener, I personally do not participate in any specific matters of the "Accumulate Power Plan," still recuperating, do not disturb.
However, although he posted such a message, people coming to find him were still endless.
Many people were curious about this "Accumulate Power Plan," and Lu Yan He could only explain over and over again that he really didn't know much about it.
But such an answer was obviously not satisfying.
In the film and television industry, directors are the hardest type to cultivate.
Actors, as well as other types of work, can all be put into projects to be tempered. However, directors cannot. Many people feel that directors can also start from being assistant directors to accumulate experience. But, to be honest, no matter how much experience as an assistant director or director's assistant one has, it cannot become a reason for others to believe they can independently be a director. This is the status quo.
Therefore, *Jump Up* suddenly wanting to do an "Accumulate Power Plan" to find directors together with Arctic Light Video naturally attracted attention.
Every platform, every production company, lacks directors.
No matter what type of director, they are lacking.
In the film and television line, directors are the real "project managers." If you understand a director who can make money as a project manager who can make money, you can understand the thirst of major platforms and production companies for directors.
But if you use a director without independent directing experience, it is equal to a big gamble. If you bet right, everyone is happy; if you bet wrong, you might even go bankrupt.
With the "Accumulate Power Plan" being done like this, everyone couldn't help but think about a question.
Can this plan unearth directors? -
"Isn't this playing house for children?"
Some people naturally didn't look favorably on it, and the reasons were also very sufficient.
"We all know that the profession of director has too high requirements; you have to understand everything, and the cost of trial and error is also high. What kind of people can they select with this competition plan that even accepts works filmed with mobile phones? I guess most of them are people who are self-righteous and think highly of themselves who will submit works to them."
"Yeah, even for the short film plan of a youth film festival, filming a short film costs at least tens of thousands of dollars. They don't have any requirements, and short films filmed with mobile phones are fine; don't end up finding a bunch of photographers."
"Right."
"However, this idea is quite good. We all need to unearth some new directors. Speaking of which, our circle still has too few directors," someone said helplessly. "A project like *Late Spring* that can bring out a young director like Liu Bige, after so many years, is only this one."
"There is no way around this. Filming a movie costs a lot of money; no matter how much money someone has, they can't say they will use it to support a new director. If *Late Spring* hadn't won an award at the Venice International Film Festival, or even if it had won an award, if Lu Yan He hadn't starred in it, such a film would probably still lose money, and maybe it wouldn't even get a screening in theaters, being cut in half after two days of release."
"Although film is the art of the director, before a director becomes famous, if there is no top actor to help, there is no way to break through at all."
"You guys say, to what extent can this 'Accumulate Power Plan' they made do?"
"I guess not very well."
There really weren't many people in the industry who looked favorably on it.
The main reason was that the director line really wasn't that easy.
It is a very small number of people who need both artistic and aesthetic creative thinking, and also very practical comprehensive qualities such as communication skills, organizational skills, and coordination skills.
People who possess these abilities at the same time are really few.
And people who have the opportunity to get a chance to show that they have such abilities are even fewer.
Chen Siqi was also very nervous because she didn't know how many people would sign up after this competition was released.
Many competitions would recruit a batch of registrants in advance before holding them, so that the competition wouldn't have insufficient participants, or even no one participating, which would be truly shameful.
However, they didn't do this.
Arctic Light Video did find a few young people they had their eyes on and asked them to film works to sign up.
However, although they were uneasy and a bit worried, they didn't miss any of the publicity and promotion they should do.
After three years, the *Jump Up* team had developed into a large team of over a hundred people. Among them, the magazine editorial team only accounted for one-tenth—this was also the most core part of the *Jump Up* team, from the editor-in-chief to the editors, all were people Lu Yan He and Chen Siqi trusted the most.
And besides them, the largest team of *Jump Up* now was actually in the self-media sector.
From online self-operated self-media to offline media matrix, Chen Siqi, together with Arctic Light Video, did large-scale promotion.
Not to mention that the "Accumulate Power Plan" was promoted in various art colleges across the country, even in places with the largest flow of people in first-tier cities, advertising spaces were bought.
This advertisement was not only releasing the recruitment order for the "Accumulate Power Plan," but also recruiting everyone to Arctic Light Video to watch the submitted works of the "Accumulate Power Plan" and choose their favorite works.
Because this was to drive traffic to Arctic Light Video, the bulk of the advertising fees was paid by Arctic Light Video.
This move by *Jump Up* also made the industry see their promotion ability that was usually not obvious.
Mainly because every publicity and marketing led by Chen Siqi before won with "ingenuity," making everyone form an impression that they were "small but refined."
But this time, the team led by Chen Siqi simply and rudely went for volume, making everyone surprised while also realizing that *Jump Up*'s influence in the media line now was truly incredible.
Chen Siqi also referred to the practices of the Tianxing Awards and *Idol Era*, inviting major media outlets to join in as the judge camp.
With such a grand scale and being closely related to the film and television circle, how could people believe Lu Yan He wasn't involved in it? -
"I really didn't manage it," Lu Yan He said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, to Liu Bige sitting opposite him.
Liu Bige and Miao Yue met him at the school cafe today, and Liu Bige also couldn't help but ask about this matter.
"Do you have friends around you who want to participate?" Lu Yan He asked.
Liu Bige said: "There are indeed a few who are interested, but they are still watching. I'll be straight: they are afraid this is a makeshift stage set up casually."
Lu Yan He understood this kind of thinking very well and nodded.
"Maybe everyone also wants to see what the quality of the submitted works released by Arctic Light Video is like," Lu Yan He said.
Liu Bige nodded.
"The industry's attitude towards this competition is not very clear now, and there are more people holding a wait-and-see attitude," Liu Bige said. "And you said you wouldn't participate in the specific process of the competition at all, so everyone is naturally more cautious."
Liu Bige suddenly thought of something and said: "Actually, there are really many people who need an opportunity. Even if these people are watching, there are always many people who want to let more people see themselves through this opportunity."
"Hmm," Lu Yan He nodded. "Currently, we are also waiting to see if there are any works among the submitted ones that make our eyes light up."
Because this time the Accumulate Power Plan requires filming a short film of about ten minutes using stories from the IP library provided by *Jump Up* as the story base, it definitely won't be that fast. They expect to receive the first batch of submitted works in a month's time.
Liu Bige said: "But you guys have such great courage, willing to take out money to help the winners film feature films. I also didn't expect it. For a new director, a filming budget of several million is really not a small amount."
"Hmm, yeah, we also say so," Lu Yan He nodded. "It's just that doing such a thing is quite interesting and meaningful. Now there are so many actor competition programs in the market, but there is no director competition to unearth directors, which is quite a pity. People who want to be directors actually don't have an open channel."
"Yes," Liu Bige nodded. "Want to be an idol, there are talent shows; want to be an actor, you can also sign up for auditions; want to be a screenwriter, once the script is written, you can submit it to film festivals, foundations, and film and television companies. It's not to say these channels are very good, but at least there is a channel. To be a director, there is really none. Almost all are taking a roundabout way, starting from other types of work, and then slowly finding opportunities."
Lu Yan He: "You stayed in France for a long time before and couldn't find an opportunity, so you returned to the country. It's imaginable."
Miao Yue suddenly said: "However, Yan He, I heard that there are students in our school who want to participate in the competition and are recruiting actors for auditions throughout the school."
"Ah?" Lu Yan He was stunned.
Miao Yue: "I also didn't expect it; it's a student from the School of Mathematics."
?
Lu Yan He was a bit confused and asked: "Who?"
"Lin Miaomiao."
"..." Lu Yan He was a bit unbelievable, "Ah?"
Miao Yue said: "She is very amazing. I heard from classmates that she is one of the strongest students in the School of Mathematics in recent years, and she ranks at the top in major international mathematics competitions."
Lu Yan He: "Then she wants to film a movie to participate in the competition, and her school teachers didn't stop her?"
"No," Miao Yue said. "She said it herself; she has been participating in various competitions, her brain is a bit tired, and she wants to change her brain. Her school teachers also support her very much."
"..." Lu Yan He really didn't know what to say.
However, at Zhenhua, teachers have always had this attitude towards students.
Almost all teachers encourage students to participate in various activities, whether it is drama or chorus performances, or other club organizations; most teachers at Zhenhua encourage and support them. Most of them also have such a view: if scientific research is done well, other aspects cannot be left behind. People who put all their minds on scientific research often cannot produce results.
Lu Yan He also didn't know if Lin Miaomiao really wanted to do this.
For him, many of Lin Miaomiao's actions were something he couldn't see or understand.
At this time, Liu Bige's phone suddenly rang.
He got up to answer the phone.
He went outside the cafe.
Miao Yue saw him go out, and then said to Lu Yan He: "Yan He, I actually quite want to sign up to participate in your competition."
Lu Yan He looked at Miao Yue in surprise, "Really?"
"Really," Miao Yue nodded. "But I know nothing about filming movies and have no experience at all. However, I don't want him to know. I want to try it first, relying entirely on my own ability."
Lu Yan He asked: "Do you want to film a movie yourself?"
Miao Yue said: "I published a short story in *Jump Up* before, and I want to film a short film of ten minutes myself. What do you think I can do?"
"Uh, I don't know," Lu Yan He really didn't know. "Because I don't understand either; I don't understand crew management, I don't understand photography, I don't understand lighting. Look at me filming *Love Letter*, I found friends to help. You want to hide from Liu Bige to film this movie; I think it's very difficult."
"Because I really just want to try and play, but if he knows, he will definitely bring me to film it, and the pressure will be very great," Miao Yue said.
Lu Yan He understood Miao Yue's idea.
At this time, Liu Bige came back after answering the phone.
Lu Yan He and Miao Yue didn't continue their conversation.
Liu Bige's face was a bit ugly.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yan He asked.
Liu Bige said: "The movie I was going to film in the second half of the year, wasn't it decided that Li Zhibai and Xu Qinyin would be the leads? Just now the company told me that Xu Qinyin isn't coming."
Xu Qinyin is a very popular actress at the moment, and she and Li Zhibai belong to the two top traffic stars.
She stayed in a Korean girl group before, like Liu Zhiyin, but her luck after returning to the country was much better than Liu Zhiyin's. She starred in two youth comedy films, and the box office was over 300 million. Although she didn't win an award, it was a very typical commercial film, but it made her a darling in the eyes of major film companies.
Long Yan Film Industry was also because of this that they wanted to invite her to act.
"Why did she suddenly not act?" Lu Yan He asked, a bit uncomprehending.
Liu Bige said: "It's said she's pregnant. By the time of the expected filming, she won't be able to film; her belly will show."
Lu Yan He widened his eyes in shock.
"She is only... twenty-three, right?" Lu Yan He rarely saw female artists giving birth so early.
Liu Bige said: "Yeah, suddenly pregnant."
"Is she married?" Miao Yue was a bit surprised.
"In my impression, no."
Miao Yue searched online and said: "She is still single now."
The three of them looked at each other.
Lu Yan He asked: "She wouldn't be lying, right? But she wouldn't lie about this kind of thing."
"Maybe it's just that the matter of dating and marriage hasn't been made public?"
"Maybe it's just that the matter of dating hasn't been made public, but they aren't married?" Miao Yue asked.
Liu Bige had a headache: "I don't care if she is dating or married; it's just that she can't act suddenly, and I have to find an actress again."
Lu Yan He asked: "For your movie, it should be very hard to find an actress, right?"
"If it were easy to find and there were backups, I wouldn't be so irritable," Liu Bige said. "The female lead in my movie is a very crazy image, and I can't find a few actresses who can act out this effect. Actresses with this ability are all over thirty."
The movie Liu Bige wants to film is a comedy about a crazy rich second generation who decides to fake his death to get rid of a girl who is even crazier than him chasing him, resulting in a bunch of trouble.
Because Li Zhibai's age is here, he must find someone of a similar age; the script's setting is like this.
Lu Yan He thought for a moment and said: "Actually, I think you can try finding Wang Jing."
"Wang Jing?" Liu Bige was stunned.
Of course he knew who Wang Jing was.
She was also unearthed by him and debuted by starring in *Late Spring*.
"She has such a quiet and literary personality; it's not suitable, right?"
Lu Yan He said: "In *Squid Game*, she acted as a girl with strong explosive power and a bit neurotic, and she acted very well. If you are interested, I can find some clips that have already been filmed for you to see, and you will know her explosive power."
Among these actors in *Late Spring*, Lu Yan He always felt that the one with the highest talent was Wang Jing.
She just wasn't as beautiful as Yan Lingyu in terms of image.
Lu Yan He didn't know what kind of requirements Liu Bige had for the actress's image in this play.
But Lu Yan He could roughly guess from this story outline that it shouldn't be the kind of high-mountain flower look, but the kind of look that can do many incredible things and has a sense of life, and also needs to be able to let go and be open.
A few days later, Xu Qinyin was exposed to be pregnant.
This news was like a meteorite falling from the sky, causing an earthquake.
Before this news popped up, Xu Qinyin was still a single persona, not even dating.
So when the news came out, many people's first reaction was: is this a rumor? This shouldn't be true, right?
It wasn't until Xu Qinyin and her team didn't respond for several hours that everyone slowly realized that this news might be true.
Xu Qinyin is a goddess in many people's minds. She debuted very early in Korea, and the girl group she was in was extremely popular, sweeping Asia. While working in the country, her work in the girl group didn't stop either, doing both. In the entertainment industry, she belongs to that type of artist who is very hard to classify.
If you say she is an idol, she has two films with big names and high heat, and she is also a resident in a national hit variety show. Her popularity and influence range are much larger than ordinary idols—no matter how high an idol's popularity is, it is often only known and recognized by fans.
If you say she is an actor, many people are not very willing to classify her into the identity of an actor. Her acting in those two films wasn't very good, but inexplicably, because of the subject matter, it hit social topics and set off a craze of youth memories, so she became the female lead of a blockbuster film. It can only be said that she was lucky; standing on the wind, she became one of the very few female leads of a blockbuster film.
Such a female artist never lacks topics, let alone attention. Suddenly, she is pregnant?
It is imaginable how shocking this matter is.
"Who is the father of her child?"
"Don't know."
"Who is she dating?"
"Don't know."
"When did she get pregnant?"
"Don't know."
Everything is confusing.
Xu Qinyin and her team have never stood up to make any response.
But this matter has become the most widely discussed topic in the entertainment industry these days.
Once people chat with each other, they will inevitably talk about this matter.
When Lu Yan He went to Long Yan Film Industry to meet with Wan Renhai, the director of *Burning Fire*, he also heard people in the company discussing this.
Lu Yan He just went with Zou Dong and Wang Biao.
Because they arrived a while early, they sat in the cafe of Long Yan Film Industry's own company building to rest.
Sitting next to them were all people from Long Yan Film Industry.
Everyone was discussing Xu Qinyin's matter, so much so that Lu Yan He was sitting right next to them, and they didn't notice.
"Now these young idols really can't be looked at by their appearance on camera; who knows what they are like in private."
"This is also quite normal; everyone will have some components of acting and pretending in front of the camera more or less."
"I'm not talking about this; I'm talking about someone who has completely started to manage a persona, completely acting as another person."
"That's too scary; is work every day acting as another person?"
"Look at Xu Qinyin and you'll know; usually, in front of the camera, she is a very youthful and cute image, but as a result, she is about to be a mother."
"Tsk tsk."
Lu Yan He was chatting with people on his phone.
Several of his group chats were discussing this matter.
The most intense discussion was in the *Young Days* group chat.
Because Liu Zhiyin also returned from Korea, Xiao Yun went to ask Liu Zhiyin immediately if she knew the situation.
Liu Zhiyin said she only had a few encounters with Xu Qinyin and had no private friendship, not very familiar, and usually hadn't heard who she was dating.
No one in the group had cooperated with Xu Qinyin, and everyone's news was eaten from gossip, with no first-hand information.
Such heat had kept Xu Qinyin's name on the hot search for three days.
In the internet era where heat passes very quickly, this is a very rare phenomenon.
Just at this time, Liu Bige suddenly sent him a message, asking: Yan He, regarding the matter of Xu Qinyin's pregnancy I told you before, did you tell anyone else before the news was exposed?
Lu Yan He was sitting in the noisy cafe, a bit surprised for a moment.
He replied: No.
He really didn't tell anyone about this, not even Chen Ziyan.
He asked: What's wrong?
Liu Bige: Sigh, Xu Qinyin said she only told the contact person at Long Yan about this news. Now she is blaming us for leaking this news, so I'm asking if you went back and told anyone, because at the time I didn't tell you this matter had to be kept secret.
Lu Yan He: It wasn't me; I didn't tell anyone.
Liu Bige: Hmm, then it's probably someone else who let it slip.
Liu Bige: This matter is still a bit troublesome now.
Lu Yan He: Hmm? What trouble?
Liu Bige said: Her company boss is a trouble; he is very familiar with Huang Tai and said he must find the person who leaked the news. Huang Tai is also because of this matter, and has already ordered a thorough investigation in the company.
Lu Yan He couldn't help but "uh" for a moment.
Liu Bige said again: And, when the identity of the biological father of the child in her belly is exposed, it will probably be another bloody storm.
???
Lu Yan He took a deep breath and said: Although I really want to know who it is, don't tell me; I don't want to fall into this muddy water. If the identity of the father of the child in her belly is leaked, it will be even more troublesome.
Liu Bige: Okay, then I won't tell you.
However, not long after, the identity of this man was poked out by someone on the internet.
For a time, another earthquake, causing a huge uproar.
"Ma Zhiyuan?"
"Is it true?"
"F*ck, when were the two of them together?"
"Is Xu Qinyin blind, taking a fancy to Ma Zhiyuan."
"When did they meet? I really haven't heard of it at all. Are these paparazzi dead? Two big traffic stars got pregnant and didn't get photographed!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Photos of Ma Zhiyuan and Xu Qinyin traveling in Denmark together were also posted.
The photos were posted by Zhou Shuchun.
A dozen photos, all of them together.
Although they wore sunglasses, hats, and masks, sometimes there were times when they let their guard down, and it was at such times that they were photographed by Zhou Shuchun and his team without any gaps.
Zhou Shuchun said he had photographed these photos a year ago, but didn't post them, and was PR-ed. Now that the relationship between the two had been exposed, he didn't need to keep secrets for them anymore.
Then, he further revealed:
"Regarding this matter, there is actually a more weird inside story."
"After finding out she was pregnant, Xu Qinyin actually went to find Ma Zhiyuan, but Ma Zhiyuan didn't admit it and wouldn't let her give birth, telling her to abort it."
"Ma Zhiyuan never intended to be responsible for Xu Qinyin from the beginning, and even blamed Xu Qinyin for being delusional, actually wanting to marry him."
"Now Xu Qinyin has given up, but she is still prepared to give birth to the child and raise it by herself."
Zhou Shuchun's revelation was like lighting a fuse, sparking and exploding the big explosion in the entertainment industry.
The war between Ma Zhiyuan's fans and Xu Qinyin's fans began.
Li Zhibai originally didn't have much interest in Xu Qinyin's matter.
Although he also liked to listen to gossip, he didn't have much interest in this kind of gossip about men and women.
But this matter suddenly involved Ma Zhiyuan, and Li Zhibai's interest came instantly.
He sent more than a dozen messages in the three-person group, bombing Lu Yan He and Yan Liang, bombing the two of them out.
Li Zhibai scolded:
--I just said this grandson is not a man.
--Usually has a crazy and arrogant look, eyes higher than the top, not taking others to heart, really shameless.
--I don't know how Xu Qinyin was deceived by him.
--Has the guts to get into bed, no guts to be a father, cowardly without a man's look.
--Hahahahaha, I want to see how Zhou Ping'an will PR this matter.
--Hope he doesn't fall, little strong, hold on!
Lu Yan He saw Li Zhibai send so many messages and guessed how excited Li Zhibai was now.
Ever since Li Zhibai left Zhou Ping'an, he had been holding a breath in his heart. Now, it couldn't be said that his great revenge was avenged, but it was obviously a big vent of anger.
The Xu Qinyin pregnancy event, which was originally thought to have nothing to do with their circle, suddenly became Ma Zhiyuan's big scandal.
Lu Yan He and the others were all a bit stunned, not reacting.
Mainly because Ma Zhiyuan and Xu Qinyin usually didn't seem to have any intersection, and suddenly such a thing popped up, which was truly shocking. ===== CHAPTER 446 =====
