This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

Chapter 17 "Paying Back the Money" - Sister Zheng has also "borrowed"! She's rich! She's become rich!! [Requesting monthly votes]

Lu Ming had no idea that he had remotely controlled Teacher Huang to make a Didi ride for Qianbao with just one short essay. If he had known, he wouldn't have minded writing a few more.

After offering his condolences to Teacher Huang, he turned his attention to his ex-girlfriend, who was known for defaulting on her debts, and posted a message tagging her:

I had a dream last night.

I dreamt about you!

In my dreams, I'm already a top star in both the music and film industries, shining brightly under the spotlight!

All my colleagues are envious of my talent!

After finishing my workday, I returned home to find a disheveled beggar arguing with a security guard. Seeing me, the little beggar excitedly rushed towards me. The guard, mistaking her for a crazed fan, stopped her while jokingly remarking on my current influence, saying even beggars were going crazy for me.

The little beggar waved excitedly at me: "Honey! It's me, I'm your ex!"

I gestured for my bodyguard to step aside, then gently covered my nose to carefully examine the little beggar who reeked of a foul stench. Although she looked disheveled, her hands were black as if she had just rummaged through a trash can, and she had an unpleasant odor, I recognized her at a glance. Wasn't this my worthless ex-girlfriend?

I'm shocked that these once glamorous goddesses of the Chinese entertainment industry have fallen to such a state.

You tearfully recounted your experiences of recent years to me...

[It turns out that because you owed a huge debt that you were unable to repay, all your assets have been frozen by the court. Facing countless creditors demanding repayment, you've gone into hiding, scavenging through garbage, sleeping under bridges, constantly on the run, and barely scraping by.]

[You've been a deadbeat for years, and you're clinging to my leg, begging me to take you in.]

Although you still owe me ten million in debt, we've known each other for a while, so I'm still willing to lend you a helping hand and have you put in the doghouse at the villa entrance.

That's Cola's house. This five-year-old dog has the intelligence of a child. It resents you for abandoning it years ago and is now trying to take over its house, so it bares its teeth and claws at you every day!

To appease Cola's anger, the nanny would let it lick the food a couple of times before serving it to you.

[You're completely unaware, and just keep exclaiming how delicious it is!]

I sat on the balcony, sipping an '82 Lafite that could have killed you, looking at you in your doghouse, and couldn't help but reminisce about the past...

The elderly often say that fate can reveal the future to us through dreams.

Perhaps this is the final fate of those who refuse to pay their debts...

[@NotChuYuXun: If you don't want your dreams to become reality, then hurry up and pay back the money!]

Upon the release of this short essay, netizens were immediately stunned.

"Holy crap, I burst out laughing!"

"When other people dream about their ex-girlfriends, they're all sweet memories, reminiscing about the past. But when this noob dreams about his ex-girlfriend living in a doghouse, eating dog food, sleeping under a bridge under a small blanket, barely scraping by, it's hilarious!"

"It's really not easy for him to be so optimistic and create good entertainment for his family after being betrayed by Sister Zheng like this."

"I disagree. I don't know if he's easy to work with, but his talent is absolutely overflowing!"

"Two short essays a day—if that washed-up actor hadn't debuted in the Chinese entertainment industry back then, he'd be a top-tier online novelist by now, right?"

"Too young. If Li Bai had been as ambitious as him back then, the Tang Dynasty poetry collection would have needed another three hundred poems!"

"@Sister Zheng, RMN, pay me back!"

While onlookers were amused, many sympathized with Lü Ming's plight and stepped forward to support him and help him recover his debts.

After all, no matter how obscure Lü Ming is, it is only right to pay back debts. Even if the overreacting fans frantically speak out for their idol and try to smear Lü Ming with various excuses and try to turn black into white, they will not be able to turn black into white on such a matter of right and wrong. On the contrary, when faced with the questions and scolding of netizens, many of Lü Ming's haters deleted their comments and ran away, temporarily avoiding the limelight.

#Hu Ming dreamt of Sister Zheng!#
#Sister Zheng, please pay back the money!#
The top two trending topics were quickly refreshed.

……

In the capital city, a modern idol drama production crew.

At lunchtime, Sister Zheng sat in her RV, enjoying a delicious meal of eight dishes and a soup. Two assistants were around her, helping to serve her tea and water. She was living a very comfortable life.

Her Weibo account was unblocked yesterday. Although there are still some voices urging her to pay back debts in the comments section, most netizens' attention has been diverted due to the Mushroom House incident. Compared to the netizens who were emotional yesterday and directly marked their accounts as abnormal, this controversy is now just a minor issue.

Based on this trend, it is estimated that within a week, people will completely forget about their unpaid debts, and within a month, it will be forgotten.

Thinking about this, Sister Zheng felt very happy, and even thought that today's lunch tasted much better.

"He actually dared to write a long post criticizing Teacher Huang without any restraint. Hmph, if you don't court death, you won't die. Just wait, after this wave of hype dies down, he'll be soft-banned by the Chinese entertainment industry. Then he'll be left with no one to turn to. Let's see how you disgust me then!"

Sister Zheng was secretly pleased with herself.

Suddenly, my phone 'dinged' and I received a special notification.

Her smiling face suddenly turned cold.

My ex-boyfriend, who's such a simp, posted on Weibo again and even tagged me in it.

"He's like a leech, clinging to me no matter what." Sister Zheng knew perfectly well that the bastard was probably pressing for repayment again.

But when she clicked on it, she was immediately surprised.

Surprisingly, instead of pressing for repayment of debts, he exclaimed that he had dreamed about her?

Huh~
Greasy!

"Has he realized his mistake and felt that his attitude towards me has been too harsh lately? Now he wants to confess his love to me in front of netizens and ask me to get back together?" Sister Zheng sneered: "Hmph, as expected, a leopard can't change its spots. He couldn't hold back after only pretending to be a tough guy for a few days?"

"I knew it from the start, it really is a childish trick!"

Although she complained, Sister Zheng's expression was full of pride.

She knew it!

That damn bastard, did he think he could win her back with a few sweet words? Did he think he could make her forget what happened before by showering her with sweet talk?

Do you know how much I've suffered during this time?!
She is a national goddess, the white moonlight of countless people's childhood, and has always been highly praised by fans. She has never been scolded by netizens like this before!

Thinking of this, a surge of grievance welled up inside her, and her eyes immediately began to redden.

"This sycophant is so shameless. I won't forgive him unless he transfers me 5200000 yuan as an apology!" Sister Zheng cried out.

The two assistants were also happy for their family's cooking.

Finally, the rain has stopped and the sun is shining!
"Sis, scroll down quickly and see how he confessed his love to you in front of the entire internet audience," the agent hurriedly reminded her.

The assistant exclaimed excitedly, "When most men say they dreamed about you last night, they're likely to say something really cheesy, so Sister Zheng, you'd better be prepared!"

“That’s right, Sister Zheng. My ex-boyfriend often used this trick to get me back together. Men are just like that. You have to be hot and cold towards them. You can’t be too nice to them.” Another assistant also shared her experience.

Sister Zheng thought it made a lot of sense.

She scrolled down her phone screen, but after just one glance, Zheng Jie's expectant expression froze instantly.

The agent and two assistants who had been peeking around were all stunned on the spot.

"You...you bastard!" Sister Zheng slammed her hand on the table, gritting her teeth. "This is a personal attack! This is blatant personal attack! Send him a lawyer's letter! Send him a lawyer's letter right now!"

broker:"……"

Assistant: "..."

"He even dreamed that he became a double top star? With his awful voice and acting skills that are enough to make the audience cringe, do you think I don't know?"

"Even if the Chinese entertainment industry went back twenty or thirty years, this kind of person would still be destined to be nothing more than a beautiful but useless person!"

"Little beggar...living in a doghouse...a bottle of Lafite to buy my life?"

"They even came to your door begging to be taken in?!"

"My mansion alone is enough to buy your life!"

"No, I'm really drunk!!" Sister Zheng laughed in anger, her whole body trembling: "That damn idiot, he'll get into a car accident sooner or later!"

The agent said weakly, "Sis, he's fallen so low that he drinks three meals a day, so he's basically out of the running for driving."

"Is it wrong for me to get hit by a car while crossing the street?!" Sister Zheng's eyes were fierce.

The agent quickly shut up and dared not say another word.

Sister Zheng stared intently at her phone screen with her watery eyes. With each word she read, her frustration grew. By the end, she felt as if ants were crawling on her chest.

next second.

She completely erupted: "Aaaaaaah!"

Furious, Sister Zheng was like a crazed mother cat, fiercely pinching and scratching her fair arms and delicate calves.

In the blink of an eye, clear scratches appeared on his delicate skin.

The scene of their own steaming and cooking going out of control startled the assistants around them, who quickly stepped forward to calm them down.

The agent quickly dialed Huka's number on his own phone.

Soon, Lü Ming's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, who is this?" "Scumbag!! Waaaaaah... I'm going to kill you! Waaaaah..."

Sister Zheng snatched the phone while wailing and cursing.

Lü Ming: "???"

"Whose funeral are you mourning at?" Lu Ming was shocked: "You're attending a funeral and you still have time to call me?"

Sister Zheng yelled, "Are you crazy?!"

"I'm mourning at my wicked ex's grave!"

"Oh, so your crying scenes have been pretty impressive lately!" Lu Ming said sarcastically, "Are you planning to use this skill to try and win Best Actress this year?"

Sister Zheng immediately broke down: "What did I ever do to wrong you during the time we were together that deserves this kind of revenge?!"

"Ten million! As for the rest of the miscellaneous change, I'll waive it for you since we've known each other." Lu Ming coldly announced, "Didn't you always say that true love is about supporting someone? As long as you don't pay back the money, I'll keep you at the top of the trending searches every day, and I'll make you famous all over the country!"

Sister Zheng ground her teeth together, making a grinding sound: "Are you hoping I'll do it? Just say 'yes,' and I'll do it right now!"

"Yes!"

Sister Zheng: "..."

"Hey, does it look like it?"

Sister Zheng: "..."

"If not, you know the card number."

Sister Zheng: "..."

"precious?"

Sister Zheng's voice was shrill: "Don't call me 'Bao,' it makes me uncomfortable!"

"So, can you pay me back now?"

"Money, money, money! All you care about is money! Do you know why I broke up with you? It's because you're too materialistic! We've been together for so long, do you think our relationship is worth less than that stinking money?" Sister Zheng accused excitedly.

Lu Ming scoffed: "Lai lai lai lai! All you know is how to be a deadbeat. Do you know why I agreed to break up with you? It's because you're such a hypocrite! We've been together for so long, doesn't our relationship deserve a moment of your sincerity?"

Sister Zheng was at a loss for words after being confronted.

Tears streamed down her face, her voice choked with emotion: "If you keep doing this, I'm really going to get angry!!"

"Oh, you're quite fertile, wanna get an award?"

"Man, don't push your luck!" Sister Zheng shouted, her face streaked with tears.

Lü Ming: "Woman, your eyes are full of greed!"

"Delete your Weibo posts. I'll figure out how to handle the money, but you're not allowed to tarnish my reputation!"

"Pay me back first, then I'll delete it!"

"Delete it first! Someone as big as me, would I lie to you? Ten million wouldn't even be enough to compensate me for the damage to my reputation!"

"Baby, what the hell are you bragging about? Ten million is enough to buy your life right now!"

Knock knock knock knock knock…

Sister Zheng's almond-shaped eyes widened, her chest heaving violently: "Bastard!!!"

"You idiot! I curse you to be poor and destitute for the rest of your life!"

Seeing her idol lashing out on the phone, the agent cautiously snatched the phone away. Having learned her lesson last time, she was genuinely afraid that Sister Zheng would smash her phone in a fit of rage again. Looking at Sister Zheng's bloodshot eyes, she weakly said, "Sister, stop yelling, they hung up a long time ago..."

Sister Zheng clenched her small fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh, and she stared blankly into a daze.

Seeing that this wasn't a solution, the agent cautiously said:

"Sis, the company has been having some complaints about you lately. It's not good for a washed-up celebrity to keep harping on us. If you're constantly trending on social media with that 'debt defaulter' label, forget about competing for this year's 'Four Little Actresses,' I'm afraid your career will be affected, and you might just fade into obscurity in no time..."

"If I had the money, I would have paid it back long ago!" Sister Zheng said stubbornly.

The agent suggested, "How about we borrow some money from the company..."

"A loan?!" Sister Zheng's eyes widened. "You don't have to pay it back after taking out a loan?!"

"No, sis, you're not someone a nobody can mess with. Besides, you have such good resources now, you can pay it back in a year at most. If you miss something, you could probably get it done in two months of appearances."

Sister Zheng remained silent.

"Anyway, you still own a luxury house, and your assets are much more substantial than that nobody's. At worst, we'll just have to deal with that."

"You're hoping my house will be foreclosed on, aren't you?!"

The agent quickly waved her hand. Seeing her like this, and considering her own current situation, Sister Zheng had no choice but to reluctantly agree: "Forget it, don't say anything more, just take out the loan!"

"Pay back the money to that bum first, then issue a statement to immediately put an end to this!"

"You idiot, you're doomed! I'll see when you finally show your true colors!" Sister Zheng gritted her teeth. "Double top star? Keep dreaming! He can only fantasize about it in his dreams!"

"That washed-up star has essentially been blacklisted by the Chinese entertainment industry. Once this wave of attention passes, nobody will care anymore," the assistant said resentfully. "I reckon it won't be long before that bastard comes crawling back to begging for your pity, Sister Zheng."

"Hmph, I'll wait and see him get what's coming to him!" Sister Zheng sneered.

Lu Ming, who was on vacation at home, was happily watching a TV series. At first, he didn't pay attention when his phone rang. But after a while, he picked up his phone and saw the text message. The moment he saw the message, he burst into tears!

came back!
We finally got the debt back!!
These days, borrowing money makes you the boss. Borrowing money is fun for a while, but chasing after debts is like being in a funeral. Heaven knows how I got through those days of chasing debts. My only house was auctioned off by the court, leaving me with nothing. I was so poor that I couldn't even afford lawyer fees. I was forced to obey Huayue's orders and run around day and night. When I occasionally came back, I could only stay in this cramped single apartment.

Now that he has recovered this ten million debt, he can be said to have become completely wealthy!

With the previously delayed appearance fee finally arriving, it's a double blessing. My personal savings have now reached a staggering 1556 million yuan. Even in Shanghai, where land is incredibly expensive, this amount could buy a very decent house. Although there's still a long way to go before investing in filming dramas, at least this is a very substantial start-up capital.

Once I break free from Huayue's control, I can immediately start my own business and rise to great heights!

Thinking of this, Lü Ming felt at ease, but also secretly pleased and expectant.

In this parallel world of the Chinese entertainment industry, he has so many dreams he can realize!

Online, the trending topic #SisterZhengPaysBackTheMoney# has been removed, and his dream-related entry has also quickly disappeared. Seeing that his idol's debts have been paid off, Xiao Erduo immediately became more assertive and repeatedly mocked Lu Ming's past sycophantic remarks.

However, with his wallet bulging at this point, Lü Ming had no interest in arguing with the haters.

Having finally made it big, Lü Ming didn't hold back when it came to spending money to celebrate this special day. He casually bought two bottles of Wuliangye liquor from the supermarket and then had Xiaoya drive the nanny van to a very famous private restaurant. He also took his little assistant, who was used to living a hard life with him, on a high-class trip.

In addition to satisfying both the appetite and the spirit, it also provides a double satisfaction.

As the expensive wine entered his stomach, the system's pleasant notification sounds rang out one after another in his mind.

[Ding! Host is detected drinking Wuliangye liquor. "Charm" +3!]

[Host detected to be in a state of mild intoxication, "Music Arrangement Basics" +30!]

[Advanced "Arrangement Basics": LV3!]

[Ding! Host is detected drinking Wuliangye liquor. "Appearance" +5!]

[Ding, host detected to be moderately intoxicated. "Voice Cavity Basics" +100!]

[Advanced "Basic Vocal Forms": LV2!]

[Ding! Host is detected drinking Wuliangye liquor. "Constitution" +5!]

[Ding! Host detected to be deeply intoxicated. "Basic Dialogue" +100!]

[Advanced "Dialogue Basics": LV3!]

Although he failed to trigger the ability lottery, the amount of proficiency points rewarded today was quite explosive, several times higher than the output when drinking beer before. This made Lü Ming feel happy and sigh in his heart that it was worth spending 1500 yuan a bottle to buy such good wine to celebrate. Expensive things really do have their benefits.

His abilities in [Arrangement Basics], [Singing Basics], and [Dialogue Basics] have all reached LV3, and he has also recently reached LV2 in [Voice Ability Basics].

While I wouldn't dare to claim that I'm trying to compete with any superstars, in terms of music, my three abilities are absolutely sufficient!

In his dream, he was already envisioning himself dominating various music variety shows...

As for why it was a dream, it's because after paying the bill at the restaurant, Lü Ming was completely drunk and didn't even remember how he got back to his apartment.
