Chapter 453 Wang Mojing: A Little Dead
While the film association was holding its opening ceremony, inside a certain clubhouse.

"It's opening day, you're really not going?"

Inside the cigarette-filled private room, a middle-aged man spoke to Wang Mojing, who was sitting opposite him.

Wang Mojing is a strange person. Even in this dimly lit private room, he always wears sunglasses, which is mainly based on the perspective of a blind person. It doesn't look strange, but it's more like he's sick.

He seemed not to have heard his friend clearly. After a while, he took a deep drag of his cigarette and waved his hand dismissively: "It's nothing serious. It's the usual routine in the mainland. Meetings are just a formality, meaningless."

Aren't you afraid they'll get angry?

My friend asked curiously, "After all, we're all making a living in mainland China now."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

Wang Mojing laughed: "I have someone to back me up no matter what, I have powerful backers."

"……All right."

My friend shook his head with a wry smile: "Only someone like you could say something like that... Sigh."

"Alright, let's stop talking about these pointless things and talk about profit sharing instead."

Wang Mojing grinned, clearly most interested in the next topic.

His friend glanced at him and said, "With the show airing like that, are you sure you want to talk now?"

"Why not? You promised us that back then."

Wang Mojing frowned: "Are you going to back out?"

His friend lowered his head and remained silent, but his meaning was clear: he wouldn't back out, but he was obviously unwilling to distribute the profits to Wang Mojing according to the original agreement.

Seeing this, Wang Mojing became even more dissatisfied. He was usually quite stingy and loved money, but he couldn't stand others "embezzling" his achievements.

"We agreed to work together to make the show a hit. Otherwise, would someone of my status be willing to work with you guys on a TV series? That would be so degrading, so low-class."

My friend frowned: "Don't put it so harshly."

"According to the original prediction, our project was at least going to be a huge hit, so we could scam investors out of their money. But something unexpected happened. You know about Ikeno's drama, and there were two parts of it. It was so popular that we had no choice but to cut our losses."

"Damn it, don't mention that scoundrel to me!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Chi Ye's name was mentioned, Wang Mojing jumped up as if he had been stressed: "I'll curse his mother! It's because of this bastard that I haven't dared to show my face in the industry lately. If you're going to deduct my pay because of him, I absolutely won't agree to it."

"...I heard that Ikeno is going up there. What you're doing is very dangerous."

My friend offered a rare word of advice, mainly because Wang Mojing's mental state didn't seem very good.

"What do you mean, Chi Ye? I've heard of him. He's just a loader. He thinks he's got some capital and doesn't respect anyone. Many people in the industry dislike him, but no one dares to show it. Once this storm passes, do you think he'll still be so arrogant?"

Upon hearing this, the friend shook his head and remained silent.

"Hey, don't you believe me? Just a while ago, someone specifically contacted me, saying they wanted to snipe him. I didn't agree because I was afraid of delaying our plans."

You mean penguins?

"Who else could it be?"

“Ikeno is different now, so I think we should try to build a good relationship with him.”

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"The profit sharing we agreed on before is indeed difficult to handle. Please wait for a while while I think of another way."

"Then you'd better hurry up, we're going on a trip, we'll have a holiday after we finish this job."

"..."

The two immediately started chatting again, discussing their mutual interests and occasionally touching on insider gossip, as Wang Mojing himself was quite a gossipy person.

For example, Wang Mojing claimed that Chi Ye, who has been in the spotlight recently, made his official announcement because he couldn't hold back for a long time, and that he was purely throwing himself at her this summer. He also said that Chi Ye doesn't have a good reputation in the industry and is too domineering, but obviously no one dares to offend him.

In terms of their love life, he felt that Chi Ye was hypocritical. Even though Shang Youshu had already pursued him to the Coconut Company, he still pretended not to see it, and so on...

In this way, he almost single-handedly complained about everyone around Chi Ye, completely unaware that in another corner of the private room, a member of the entourage who had followed him over but hadn't had a chance to speak pressed the record button.

……

"That's the thing. After filming 'The Wandering Earth,' I don't have any other projects scheduled for the time being. Let's talk about it later."

night.

Chi Ye and his group walked out of the venue. He casually chatted with a film mogul who had been pestering him for a collaboration all evening, as he headed down the stairs.

"Brother Chi."

Assistant Xiao Liu stepped over from the side and whispered to Chi Ye, "Something has happened."

Chi Ye was taken aback. Seeing this, the big shot next to him, though curious, still tactfully said, "Then I'll head back first."

"See you tomorrow."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

Chi Ye watched the other person leave before turning to Xiao Liu: "What's wrong?"

"Hmm... Someone said they have something for you."

Xiao Liu hesitated: "It's a recording."

"recording?"

Chi Ye was dumbfounded, thinking to himself that this thing didn't sound like a good thing. He hadn't used this kind of trick in a while. Who would suddenly record him?
He didn't speak there, but waited until he got in the car before asking, "What exactly happened?"

"The man said he was Wang Mojing's assistant, and that due to some personal reasons, so..."

Xiao Liu briefly explained what she knew about the incident, and then handed him her phone: "This is what he recorded. He said he could provide more if we needed it."

Chi Ye didn't even listen, and waved his hand, saying, "I have nothing to do with Wang Mojing, why would I need his recording?"

"...You were mentioned in it."

Ikeno: "And then?"

"There are others."

"Oh?"

Ikeno then became somewhat interested.

He wasn't actually curious about what Wang Mojing said about himself in the recording, because no matter what he said, it wouldn't have much impact on Chi Ye now.

But if there are other people involved, then...

That's quite interesting.

"What aspects are included?"

"I didn't hear the whole thing, but some parts were quite sensitive. They talked about the cooperation with the KuYing platform, the profit-sharing issues behind the revenue sharing, and Tencent's strong promotion of 'Wang Quan Fugui'."

Ikeno listened to the two names in silence.

"Brother Chi, what do you think we should do in response to him?"

"...Let him go somewhere cool and stay there."

After a long while, Chi Ye seemed to have figured things out and said casually. Xiao Liu was taken aback when he heard this, but didn't ask Chi Ye any further questions.

Because of Chi Ye's reaction, she realized that Chi Ye was different from them now. Chi Ye no longer needed to pay attention to these kinds of "dirty work". He was a rising star who was about to rise to the top. It would be a bit too low-class for him to continue to do these things himself.

but…

There has been no response from Ikeno's side for a long time. The person who sent the recording must be getting very anxious.

……

really.

The person who handed the recording to Chi Ye was Wang Mojing's assistant. Of course, on the surface, he was one of Wang Mojing's go-to screenwriters, but the so-called go-to screenwriter was just a nicer way of putting it. In reality, he was just Wang Mojing's ghostwriter, the kind of person with no real status.

I don't know why, but he had some disagreements with Wang Mojing. It probably wasn't something he had planned for a long time, because he recorded several gigabytes of audio for Chi Ye. It was just recorded today, and it was related to the other party.

He believed that only those connected to Ikeno would receive his attention.

Unfortunately, he was wrong. Ikeno used to enjoy playing these underhanded tricks, but as the saying goes, once you put on a suit, you won't take it off easily. With his understanding and mindset, it was obviously a bit difficult for him to comprehend the current Ikeno.

Therefore, after waiting anxiously for several hours without receiving a response from Ikeno, he became impatient.

"Why is there no news yet?"

Did you send the wrong recording?

His girlfriend, standing next to him, was equally anxious: "If it's sent to the wrong person, he definitely won't be interested."

"...That shouldn't be the case. I heard that Ikeno likes to do this kind of thing all the time, and many people have been ruined by him."

"Ask the other side again."

"Row……"

Assistant Gu took out his phone again to ask the person who had contacted him, only to find that the other party had already deleted him.

He stood there, completely stunned and at a loss.

"what happened?"

"They deleted me."

"Huh? Then... what do we do..."

"..."

After a long silence, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, let's not bother others. Let's do it ourselves."

"Huh? Do it yourself?"

The girlfriend was taken aback: "How...how are we going to do it ourselves?"

"I'm going to expose this."

In just a few seconds, Assistant Gu seemed to have made up his mind: "In any case, this matter cannot be left like this... If he won't let me have a good life, then no one else will either."

Hearing his tone, his girlfriend grew increasingly worried: "He's the boss, after all. It's not right for us to do this..."

"Don't worry about it."

Assistant Gu shook his head. Just now, he had already figured out the operation plan.

Chi Ye still needs to be utilized. Mainly because, as an insider, he knows how incredibly popular Chi Ye is right now. Any topic with or without Chi Ye makes a huge difference, and can even determine his success or failure.

Therefore, the theme of this exposé is: [Wang Mojing's private comments on Chi Ye and his women.]

The key lies in the keywords "Ikeno and Ikeno's women." The appearance of these keywords will inevitably cause a huge uproar.

"Are you crazy?!"

His girlfriend was stunned when she saw what he did: "That's Chi Ye! How dare you spread such rumors?"

"I didn't spread any rumors. These are all things Wang Mojing said himself. What does it have to do with me?"

Assistant Gu argued vehemently, "I was just relaying his words; he was the one spreading rumors that Chi Ye was having illicit relationships."

"...Don't forget, Ikeno will be different soon. If you do this, neither of us will be able to survive in this industry."

Hearing this, Assistant Gu calmed down a bit. He looked at the various audio files he had already edited and fell into extreme hesitation.

……

The incident occurred in the early hours of the morning.

While the Film Association was still discussing the specific arrangements for tomorrow's event, a strange account on Weibo named Assistant Gu suddenly released a large number of recordings about Wang Sunglasses.

Normally, many people would be asleep at this time, and it would take until tomorrow for the issue to gain traction.

But perhaps because the title included Ikeno's name, the popularity soared quickly, and people only realized they had been tricked after clicking in.

The recording did mention Ikeno, but it was mostly about Wang Mojing himself.

This includes the various "illegal" operations carried out by the two platforms, Cool Movie and Penguin, in this "battle" for the market.

The main points, but not limited to, include: inflating figures, buying data, and manipulating viewership ratings. Although there is no concrete evidence, the fact that these claims came from the mouth of Wang Mojing, a top-tier director in the Chinese entertainment industry, still shocked and impacted the public.

Of course, it also includes everyone's favorite gossip about celebrities.

For example, Wang Mojing said, "Jin Xia is paying to get married, and Shang Youshu is paying to get married but nobody wants her."

My friend next to me asked, "Where was Jinwei back then?"

"Lick the dog."

Finally, Wang Mojing added, "Sheng Ning is actually the best at pretending; she hides her relationship with Chi Ye very well."

This one sentence became the biggest trigger for this incident—even the whistleblower himself didn't expect that such a casual remark could cause such a huge shock.

Actually, this is mainly because those involved are blinded by their own interests. As insiders, everyone basically knows about the relationship between Sheng Ning and Chi Ye, but very few people outside the circle know about it. In addition, given the various grudges between Chi Ye and Sheng Ning in the past, it can only be said that when this statement came out, it was no less than dropping a bomb in the outside world.

The first question is—Ikeno and Mori are having an affair?!

Then it developed into: Ikeno cheated on his wife!
Finally: Ikeno not only cheated on his wife, but he did it more than once!
People in the industry were still awake at this hour, engaged in some rather exciting recreational activities, and were suddenly "woke up."

"Holy crap, what happened?!"

Chu Zhangyu was woken up in a daze. With his hair all messy, he listened to the news on the phone with a look of surprise. The agent on the other end was very excited: "Our opportunity has come!"

Zhang Yu was stunned for a long time before he yelled, "Are you fucking sick? What opportunity? An opportunity to die? You know what's going on here, are you out of your mind? If you're not thinking straight at night, go for it, you idiot!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

"What's wrong? I just heard that Ikeno got into trouble again?"

The word "again" is used well.

Chu Hanzhou praised his friend, then said with a hint of confusion, "Is he going to die? Who would dare to mess with him at this time... I really don't understand. Isn't it better to be alive?"

Living is not good, so it's better to die.

That day, Wang Mojing suddenly felt as if he were dying.
