Plagued by bad reviews, but the top actress!-Chapter 752: Slap in the Face, Quick, Accurate, and Ruthless!
Chapter 752: Chapter 752: Slap in the Face, Quick, Accurate, and Ruthless!
A well-known marketing account made a post that focused on discussing the awards from last night’s Golden Ying ceremony.
In the end, it mentioned the scandal from four years ago when Xu Jiayang was accused of drugging and raping a female artist, forcing a relationship on her. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com
It dragged that dirty incident, which had already been forgotten, back into the light.
"The Golden Ying Award is an affirmation of the film industry, filled with positive energy. Do we really think someone like Xu Jiayang deserves recognition? In the arts, morality comes first. If such a despicable person can become the Best Director at the Golden Ying, I don’t know what the meaning of this award is anymore..."
While the post affirmed other awards as fair and just, it ended with such harsh criticism of the Best Director award, instantly pushing Xu Jiayang into the eye of the storm.
Moreover, the post had both praise and criticism, which made it seem very unbiased instead of intentionally targeted, which in turn made it all the more persuasive.
—I think what this post says is very reasonable. Although "Despair" was well-shot, Xu Jiayang’s character really isn’t that great.
—Yeah, the Golden Ying Award is probably the most authoritative one domestically. Those who win it should be filled with justice and positivity so they can be role models, not those sleazy characters.
—A director’s thoughts often get conveyed to the audience through their films. Can such a morally bankrupt director really convey positive energy...?
—By comparison, I think Wan Ke is more suitable for the Best Director award. He’s upfront, positive, and his works are good both in box office and reputation, and his values are also upright...
—I think Wan Ke is good. "Republic of China Graceful Hero" is no worse than "Despair," okay?
—No wonder the entertainment industry is so chaotic, all made rotten by people like Xu Jiayang. The title of Best Director is undeserved; Wan Ke should really be the king without a crown of the director world...
—Exactly, Wan Ke is the rightful Best Director...
Watching the online sentiment develop as he expected, Wan Ke finally let out a sigh of relief.
There was a hint of smugness in his dark eyes. Xu Jiayang, do you think winning the Best Director will let you rest easy?
Keep dreaming!
As long as the dirt from four years ago exists, you’ll never be able to turn over a new leaf!
Inside the Hongtu Office, Xia Weibao was relishing the comments.
She finally understood why there were so many opportunists on the internet, eager for a major spectacle.
Turns out watching others tear into each other is quite entertaining.
She was practically dying of laughter at the comments.
"Isn’t there supposed to be nine years of compulsory education nowadays? Why do I feel like those people online are acting like elementary school kids.
Look at this comment, it actually says that Director Xu is just luckier than Wan Ke for starting to make films earlier, but not necessarily more talented than Wan Ke.
If Wan Ke was born a few years earlier, it would not be Xu Jiayang the second, but Xu Jiayang being called the second Wan Ke, hahaha...
If I remember correctly, Director Xu, weren’t you and Wan Ke college classmates?"
Seeing Xu Jiayang being slandered, Leng Yan slammed the desk and stood up angrily, "Nonsense! Wan Ke is clearly a year older than Xu Jiayang, how dare he claim if he was born a few years earlier?"
The force of his anger made the spicy strips fall out of Xia Weibao’s mouth.
She didn’t even bother picking them up but just stared blankly at Leng Yan, "Boss, I’ve been slandered so many times before, and I’ve never seen you this angry..."
The disparity in treatment was just too big.
When she was badly slandered, Leng Yan would always rant about betting on the wrong horse, that the house, car, company, and goddess were all gone, but he didn’t sympathize with her one bit.
