Chapter 322: A Pitiful Person Surely Has Something Hateful to Them
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Tang Yu? Contract terminated?” Yun Shishi gossiped at once. “Why was her contract terminated?”
Qin Zhou looked over to her and roasted, “Madam, don’t you read the entertainment news? You are about to enter show business. Do pay more attention to the news going around you!”
“He he…” She muttered sheepishly. “I don’t usually watch TV.”
“You… seriously…”
“Say it.” She had a burning desire to gossip.
He sneered. “What happened? News of her following the unspoken rules spread all over the town. All along, Huanyu places heavy emphasis on the image of its artistes. With her name tainted, who else could we kick out other than her? She’s an artiste, yet she has scandals to her name. Quite a few advertising companies have retracted their contracts with her. The movie productions she signed up for were forced to find a replacement and have her scenes edited out, thus suffering enormous losses. She even has to pay the company a hefty fine.”
The corner of Yun Shishi’s lips twitched. “Unspoken rules?”
She was still fine at the gala, yet within a few days, this unforeseen event happened to her.
Everything had changed since then.
SMACK!
Qin Zhou did not bother explaining so much and simply threw a stack of newspapers before her.
She flipped through them leisurely and knitted her brows in shock.
Wow…
This was too explosive.
Little did she know that this was a quirk of fate. If Mu Yazhe had not appeared in time, the person appearing in the news would have been her.
However, this person had yet to get the whole picture and simply took pleasure in reading the news.
Tang Yu’s scandal grabbed the headlines for several days, and even now, the wave had yet to die down. It remained the talk of the town.
She came to a Huanyu higher-up’s villa and did not leave for an entire night – a reporter happened to show up when all this was happening. What was more shocking was that the two needy people forgot to draw the curtains, so the reporter captured everything from photos to videos, and all these went viral on the internet.
It was too late to censor them.
After the incident, Tang Yu Studios secretly contacted some paparazzi involved in the matter and offered an exorbitant amount to purchase all the videos and images they had in their possession. Her studio intended to get rid of all the evidence and suppress this negative publicity before it was too late.
Alas, these reporters flatly refused their seven-digit offer, so they were unable to purchase every evidence.
Why?
Their photographs were already bought by an unknown individual for a high price. This buyer had every intention to destroy her name. Tang Yu Studios’ human resource department was only fighting a losing battle.
Overnight, the number of fans following Tang Yu’s Weibo account plummeted by the millions. Her following was still decreasing as of now.
A totally unexpected event destroyed her acting career just like that. Tang Yu was completely dumbfounded at this, and she was unable to recover from the downfall.
Things were not done yet.
‘Luck comes only once, but trouble comes in droves.’
Huanyu Entertainment subsequently received notices from advertising companies requesting the termination of their contract with her, and the productions Tang Yu were currently in removed her character entirely.
Even those productions she had completed the takes for cut out her scenes.
With her name tarnished, Huanyu had to pay an astronomical sum as penalty.
A few of Huanyu’s higher-ups flew into a rage.
For companies, their artistes were like products; if they lost their popularity, they would cease to have value. Huanyu Entertainment and Tang Yu Studios showed their hands on the table, and the former proposed the termination of her contract. What Tang Yu was about to face was settling another hefty nine-digit fine for the breach of contract.
“How pitiful.”
“Still, a pitiful person surely has something hateful to them,” Yun Shishi stated as a matter of fact.
Qin Zhou was surprised, and he poked her cheek. “You’re not a pushover anymore, eh? Already knowing how to rebut?”
