Entertainment: The Path to Best Actor for Talented Actors

The banquet was held at the most famous five-star hotel in Hengdian, with a high-class environment and standard, showing great sincerity.

When Qin Shuangshuang saw Liu Jing again, a very complicated look flashed in her eyes.

There was resentment, jealousy, and fear.

The two originally came to Hengdian to work around the same time, and initially even acted together.

He chose to strip for money and advancement, while she chose to hone her acting skills.

He himself is now in such a sorry state, while she has achieved success in both love and career, and now has so many celebrities supporting her.

Qin Shuangshuang felt that God was being unfair, why was fate so harsh on her!

"Hehe, Teacher Zhang, Teacher Gao, Teacher Liu, thank you all for attending the banquet today. I have mismanaged my artist, and a small conflict occurred just two days ago. I apologize on his behalf!" Liu Yiyang's agent first downed a glass of baijiu.

Zhang Ze and his two companions watched their agent finish his drink without saying a word, creating an awkward atmosphere.

The director and producer quickly stepped forward to smooth things over and lighten the mood.

Liu Yiyang suddenly stood up, holding a glass of baijiu, and said in a stiff tone, "Teacher Liu, I'm sorry, I acted impulsively that day. I, Liu Yiyang, apologize to you here. I hope you will forgive my rudeness." He then downed the glass in one gulp.

Liu Jing, being a girl, was a little impatient. Seeing Liu Yiyang bow his head and apologize, she didn't continue to make things difficult for him.

Qin Shuangshuang was left sitting there, hesitant.

Liu Yiyang secretly gave her a meaningful look, his eyes filled with threat.

Unable to withstand the pressure, Qin Shuangshuang stood up awkwardly and said, "Liu Jing, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have argued with you. I was wrong, I hope you can forgive me!"

"Your mistake was gossiping behind people's backs. Watch your mouth from now on, and remember, words can cause trouble!"

Liu Jing and Qin Shuangshuang were once acquaintances, and she felt a deep sense of pity as she watched Qin Shuangshuang gradually fall into depravity.

He picked up his wine glass and took a small sip, which was considered an acceptance of her apology.

She stood up and said, "Brother Ze, honey, if there's nothing else, let's go!"

The three of them arrived outside the hotel, and Liu Jing, with tears in her eyes, thanked Zhang Ze.

"Gao Yang is my good brother, I certainly wouldn't stand by and watch him be bullied. Besides, this whole thing started because of me, you don't need to be so polite!"

"I knew it, Brother Ze is a true friend." Gao Yang grinned sheepishly.

This matter is over.

But the consequences continue to change.

First of all, the director added a lot of scenes for Gao Yang and Liu Jing, making them supporting characters in the drama.

They deserve to be listed in the behind-the-scenes credits!

This is the first time the two of them have characters with names and surnames.

In addition, a significant amount of Liu Yiyang's scenes were cut, reducing him from the second male lead to the third male lead.

Gao Yang and Liu Jing's fame spread throughout Hengdian in no time, making them the most unapproachable figures in Hengdian and the envy of the extras.

Zhang Ze and Zeng Lai's relationship was kept secret and did not cause any disturbance.

Zeng Lai's classmates only helped him because they thought Liu Jing was Zeng Lai's friend.

The matter in Hengdian has come to an end.

Zhang Ze's reputation has been somewhat tarnished recently because of the airing of "Beijing Love Story".

The character he plays, Andy, a rich second-generation heir, is a womanizer with women on both sides, which is completely different from the positive image he played in previous war dramas.

The TV series "Beijing Love Story" caused a great sensation when it was broadcast.

The main point is that the views on love presented in the book are what young people care about most and are most controversial about today.

However, as the TV series progressed, Yang Mi's character, Yang Zixi, spoke those materialistic words with righteous indignation.

The audience disliked the character Yang Zixi, and Yang Mi absorbed most of the negative impact for a time, while Zhang Ze's portrayal of Andy actually improved her reputation a lot.

Many viewers even spoke up for Andy, who was played by Zhang Ze.

He may be a jerk, but he's willing to spend money.

[As a rich second-generation heir, Andy is qualified; he only wants her body and is willing to spend money on her. Yang Zixi, on the other hand, chooses to be materialistic, wanting both his money and his heart—a hypocrite.]

Online discussions and arguments about the two are ongoing.

Yang Mi truly lives up to her nickname "Big Boobs," with her large and fair breasts; Zhang Ze is so lucky!

Why do I feel so satisfied seeing Yang Zixi looking so humiliated for the sake of the flower shop?

Gradually, the online discussion began to go astray.

Zhang Ze felt relieved and silently closed the Weibo account.

As long as the audience doesn't take the character too seriously and attack the actor himself, that's fine!

After filming "The Legend of Shrimp Ball", Zhang Ze took a few days off, which was rare for him.

That day, Zhang Ze was lying on the sofa playing "KartRider".

Suddenly a text message popped up on the screen.

"Hello, your ICBC bank account ****3572 has received a deposit of 1473900.00 yuan..."

Zhang Ze sat up abruptly and carefully counted: ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions.

He thought to himself, "Over 1.4 million, that must be the salary for 'The Legend of Shrimp Ball'!"

Suddenly, a surge of joy welled up inside me, and I jumped up and waved.

"Yay! I've achieved my first million-dollar goal!" Zhang Ze was overjoyed and unconsciously wiggled his hips and danced an unknown dance.

When good things happen, people are in high spirits. Zhang Ze was so happy that he didn't know how to express it, so the first thing he thought of was calling Zeng Lai.

When Zeng Lai heard his words, she almost laughed. But to save face for him, she still went along with it and praised and encouraged him!

After talking with Zeng Lai, Zhang Ze called his mother.

Gao Hongxia, the mother, has been in a good mood lately. Although her son didn't get into university, he's doing very well in the entertainment industry and has even become a star.

This earned her a lot of face among her family members and in the village.

"Son, what made you think of calling your mother?" came the mother's happy voice from the other end of the phone.

Zhang Ze told his mother that he had received his salary and earned more than a million yuan from one film.

Gao Hongxia, the mother, was very happy. "My son has made something of himself. I don't have to worry about you anymore. Before, when you didn't get into university, I was always worried and thinking about saving money to buy you a house in the city."

"But housing prices keep rising every year, and after saving for so many years, it's still not enough for a down payment."

"That's great! You can make a lot of money now, and you won't have to worry about buying a house or getting married in the future."

Gao Hongxia instructed, "Son, don't squander the money now. Find some time to buy an apartment in Beijing. I know apartments in Beijing are expensive. If you don't have enough money, there's still over 300,000 yuan in savings at home. Take that too. Anyway, this money is saved up for you."

Zhang Ze felt both touched and ashamed!

Why didn't I think of calling my mother right away to tell her the good news?

It's truly as the common saying goes, "Once you have a wife, you forget your mother!"

Zhang Ze shook his head. That was definitely not his intention; it was love playing tricks on him, and had nothing to do with him!
