Chapter 455 A Familiar Yet Strange Feeling
Thailand.

A nightclub.

A woman dressed in a flamboyant manner sat upright in a booth, a slim cigarette dangling from her fingertips. She exhaled softly, her red lips slightly pursed: "Annoying. It's been so long, why are you still coming to see me?"

"Judy, what's up? You're not working tonight, that's rare."

The girl next to me blinked and said in Thai, "I've heard that a boss likes people like you and has been saying he wants to see you every day these past few days."

"See me? Let him wait."

Shen Qingyu snorted coldly, and with her features already dismembered, she actually looked somewhat delicate.

Hearing this, the people around him didn't say anything more. Shen Qingyu was doing well at this store, having been there the longest. As a foreigner, people didn't know him at first, but after he starred in the Thai version of "My Love from the Star," their opinions of him changed drastically.

I heard that he used to be a teammate of the real male lead in "My Love from the Star". I don't know if it's true or not, but Shen Qingyu has made a lot of money over the years by relying on this gimmick.

He didn't just accept the traditions of Thailand; he's the kind of person who's open to everything. So, although these years have been tough, he's managed to live a pretty good life.

Of course, compared to before, this seems a bit redundant.

night.

As Shen Qingyu stepped out of the nightclub, the humid air hit him, making his mood even more complicated.

Not long ago, he received a phone call from someone who asked him to do something.

He neither refused nor agreed.

how to say…

To say that Shen Qingyu had let go of his past would be impossible. Look at his current state, neither human nor ghost, and then look at Chi Ye, who is now at the height of his power and is no longer in the same world as him. He will have to look up to him for the rest of his life.

Are you resigned to this? Are you dissatisfied?
Shen Qingyu didn't know what he was thinking. After many years, memories he had forgotten began to attack him again, making him realize that he wasn't like this before, and that he used to have a glamorous exterior.

"Sigh... It seems like he's the only one still active now, while Peng Chen has disappeared without a trace."

……

"I haven't had much data lately, but that's not my problem..."

at the same time.

Domestically, Peng Chen is arguing with his agency: "You can't do this for this reason..."

"Wait, wait a minute."

The person on the other side interrupted him.

Peng Chen asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"I want to emphasize one point."

The person opposite held up a finger: "You haven't just run out of data recently, you've been running out of data for the past few years."

Peng Chen: “?”

"Alright, Peng Chen."

The company's executives, not wanting to listen to his rambling any longer, shook their heads and said, "According to the contract, we will indeed continue to provide you with resources. To be frank, the current economic climate is not good, and your situation is rather special. Generally speaking, we would definitely continue to support you, but..."

He glanced at the doorway, found it closed, and then lowered his voice: "But...can you handle someone else's son?"

Peng Chen opened his mouth.

The executive was furious at his son's lack of self-respect: "No matter how good I was to you before, it was useless! Now that his son is here, everything is going to be left to him, not you. Do you know that? At the party last night, his son said he'd beat you up every time he saw you!"

Peng Chen was on the verge of tears: "I didn't do anything, why did he beat me up!"

"You fucked his mother."

Peng Chen: “…”

“Yes.” Peng Chen’s expression changed instantly, and he nodded: “Then he is quite filial.”

"You are his unfaithful father."

The executive pointed at Peng Chen and said, enunciating each word clearly, "If we keep promoting you, do you think he'll let us off the hook?"

Peng Chen remained silent.

"If you could make money, that would be fine, but the problem is you're not making any."

The executive was blunt: "I won't say much more... We've been friends for years, let's part ways amicably, and you should take this opportunity to find another job."

Peng Chen's lips twitched, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace: "Do you think... at my age, I still have a chance to find another one?"

"..." The executive was stunned for a long time before finally saying in bewilderment, "The next one I'm talking about is a company."

Peng Chen: “…”

"what did you say?"

Peng Chen shook his head, not daring to look the executive in the eye, and left the office in a disheveled state.

As night fell and the night breeze refreshed him, Peng Chen looked at the dim sky, feeling lost and helpless, as if his bladder was splitting and he couldn't muster any strength.

Yes, he's lived off women his whole life, but in the end, he couldn't overcome family ties. He was just joking in the office earlier; how could he really find another woman at his age…

He's not the young heartthrob he used to be; he's now aiming for the top spot in China.

"What am I going to do... It's not like I wanted to sleep with your mom, it's your mom who fucked..."

Di Lingling.

Before he could finish speaking, the phone rang. Peng Chen was startled, took out his phone, and was extremely surprised to see the caller ID.

……

The next day, noon.

After a day and a night of fermentation, the news revealed by Assistant Gu has attracted everyone's attention.

However, amidst the heated discussions and debates, there were also differing opinions. For example, did Assistant Gu's actions violate professional ethics? Wang Mojing is not a good person, but is Assistant Gu a good person?
This is the usual tactic: first, muddy the waters. You don't even need to look to know who's behind this propaganda. Tencent and Coolfilm are seasoned veterans. Although they're new teams with little experience, copying their methods is always a safe bet.

"Should we release the second wave now?"

His girlfriend, acting as Gu's assistant's observer, didn't sleep all night. After the initial anxiety and tension, she had now become somewhat numb.

Assistant Gu put away his phone, paused, and said, "Put it away."

"...Once you let it go, there's no turning back."

“I gave him a chance, but he didn’t cherish it.”

While Assistant Gu's words seemed to be directed at Wang Mojing, his girlfriend knew that it wasn't quite like that, or at least not just that.

At one o'clock, at a critical juncture when the controversy was escalating and the heat was exploding, Gu's assistant, who had been silent all night, released a second wave of bombshells.

This wave of news has essentially started a full-blown war, because compared to the first wave, the second wave is truly nuclear-level.

It was the same familiar scene: a black screen, Wang wearing sunglasses, friends, and Qin Wenwen enjoying their "gossip time" and chatting passionately.

Wang Mojing immediately launched into a bombshell statement: "All those messes Chi Ye made in the past, are they just going to be forgotten like that? Does the higher-ups dare to let him come up here openly and honestly?"

My friend replied, "Having connections and a background is normal. Isn't that how it is in China?" "I heard that his father-in-law really pulled some strings for him this time. He's definitely a golden catch."

"A rich man's son-in-law? Ha, a phoenix man (a man from a poor background who achieves success

Wang Mojing continued his sharp commentary: "This kind of person won't get away with this easily, don't worry. Where in the Chinese entertainment industry does he work? He was lucky before because everyone was unwilling to cause trouble, but given his style of doing things, it won't last long."

"Hey, have you heard about it?"

Suddenly, Qin Wenwen, who had been mostly silent, asked again, "It seems that the stories of several projects by Chiye Company are copied from other people."

"Oh no?"

His friend was surprised, and Wang Mojing was also shocked: "No way, everyone says he's incredibly talented, right? I don't think anyone's ever said that. If it were plagiarism, it would have been exposed long ago..."

The voice message ended, and after a while, Qin Wenwen's voice rang out again: "It's true, because I'm in the screenwriting circle. At a dinner party last time, I met Liu Guangmang... you know, the screenwriter who worked on that project last year. He said that several screenwriters on their side provided inspiration, some were responsible for thinking, some were responsible for writing, and finally, there were industry veterans polishing and refining the writing. In the end, Chi Ye took it and put his name on it."

“Some big-name screenwriters in the industry do this, but they are still few and far between. There are even fewer who don’t even have any ideas. When does Chi Ye have time to think about these things? He’s too busy filming to even think about anything else. How could he possibly create so many hit shows at once?”

There's a reason for that.

Upon hearing this, the group suddenly realized what was going on, shaking their heads in shock. Finally, Wang Mojing couldn't help but sneer, "Heh, those people outside have been fooled all along, praising him as some kind of genius. It's hilarious. Even the higher-ups (XX) have been fooled, haha."

"..."

The conversation then shifted to other topics. The total recording time was about forty minutes, and it included many other artists and content that people were interested in.

嗏

Nobody cares about it anymore.

Everyone is only concerned about whether Chi Ye is really as they say. Well... most likely he is, because it's impossible for top industry figures like Wang Mojing to lie during private gatherings, let alone commit suicide to frame Chi Ye.

You ask what suicide is?

In the recording, Wang Mojing and others mentioned several names and very sensitive content more than once. Once it's released, it's unknown whether Chi Ye will be in trouble, but these guys are definitely done for. It's a no-brainer; they've basically said goodbye to the rest of their lives.

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Gu San, you're amazing! You've really dropped some bombshells!"

"Ikeno is actually this kind of person in private?"

"Hilarious, Ikeno has had countless scandals like this before. No one would want to target Ikeno over something like this, right?"

"I don't think this incident will have any impact on Ikeno, and I don't know if it's true or not, but what did Wang Mojing mean when he said Ikeno 'went up'?"

"I know that, let me explain..."

"Damn it, where are the comments? Why did you stop talking?"

"Account has been banned."

"6. Is this Ikeno's strength? Awesome."

"This is outrageous! Is it for real? I want to try it too..."

"Stop guessing, it's just a Celestial Dragon..."

"..."

The scene gradually became chaotic, and in contrast, a terrifying surge of traffic and trending topics flooded in.

In just a few hours, Chi Ye's various "misdeeds" and "suspected misdeeds" became widely known. In fact, all of Gu San's recordings were just talk, and even with the current advanced development of AI, it is still unknown how much of it is true.

But that doesn't matter. Even if it's all fake, it doesn't matter. What they need to do now is to make a fuss and create an impact. As long as there are these negative effects, it will be impossible for Chi Ye to follow the plan peacefully.

"The truth has been revealed; it must be Yue Na who's behind this."

Coconut jelly.

Chi Ye said to Coco, "Now that nothing has happened, there's no one else who has the ability and the willingness to seek revenge even if it doesn't make money. There's probably no one else like him."

"I think so too."

Coco nodded, then frowned: "So what's next...?"

She wasn't asking what to do, since the recording had too many flaws. First, many of the words were obviously edited and processed. Second, none of this would cause any fatal damage to Ikeno at the moment.

Her concerns, like those of the person behind this incident, concerned Ikeno's impending "ascension." The impact of this matter could be significant or minor; if it were contained within a certain scope from the outset, then of course it would be minor.

But judging from the current situation and trend, it's clear that things can't end well.

If things continue to develop, there will definitely be a price to pay for a comeback. The other party will make a comeback, but Ikeno certainly will too.

Let's proceed step by step.

To this, Chi Ye gave an answer that Coco didn't expect. She wondered, "Brother Chi... isn't this a bit too... passive for us?"

"Then help me think of a solution."

Coco: "...If I could figure it out, I wouldn't be myself anymore. Now please call me Sister Coco!"

"...Sister Ke, this joke isn't funny at all."

After Ikeno finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Seeing his expression, Coco nodded, feeling a little less pressure. That's just the kind of person Chi is; even if he knows the situation hasn't changed, his words can still put people at ease.

After Coco left, Chi Ye calmly took out his phone. He didn't make a call or do anything else, but instead opened Weibo, edited a text message, and then…

@Chiye: [Yu Zecheng said: The basic logic of the recording is as follows:...]

After sending the message, without checking the feedback, he started thinking about something else: Was this person really him? If so... then it wouldn't be difficult to deal with, because the other party now had practically nothing except for a little money.

To think that you can use this method to target someone who has already been identified—if you succeed, wouldn't everyone follow suit?

Therefore, from beginning to end, Ikeno was not too worried about his career advancement. He just wanted to see who it would be this time. This might be the last time, because currently, unless someone is mentally ill, his opponents will only become fewer and fewer.

He had a really bad feeling about this time, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it... If that was really the case, he was indeed at his wit's end.

……

Have you contacted the person yet?

Inside an office building, a figure sat on a sofa, quietly sipping coffee, and asked, "I told you about their personalities before, haven't you figured it out yet?"

"...none of them are quite ideal."

"Shen Qingyu or Peng Chen?"

"None of them are ideal..."

"Oh?"

The figure looked strange and muttered, "They weren't like this before."

"...Gu San asked us for money again."

"Didn't I just give it to him yesterday? It hasn't been that long."

"He said... if you do this kind of thing, you won't be able to get by in the future, so you have to be paid every day."
