368: Chapter 368: Shocking the Entertainment Industry!
A single stone can create a thousand ripples!
Wang Taixiong has been arrested, and if he confesses, the consequences are unthinkable.
Even some actresses who allegedly have no business ties with Wang Taixiong are frightened out of their wits!
After all, they are only too aware of why they became popular and landed certain film roles.
If Wang Taixiong spills some beans, their reputations could stink to high heaven.
After all!
Just as one feels the temperature of the water they drink, they know their own situation well.
Do they not have a clue whether they have had beneficial cooperation and collusion with Wang Taixiong?
…
This afternoon.
The entertainment and film industry is destined to undergo an unprecedented shock.
The domestic dispute of Bai Fengling, the live stream of He Yaoxi…
The hot topics on the internet were swiftly replaced.
The arrest of Wang Taixiong caused a major earthquake in the film circle, quickly topping the charts as the key search term.
He himself surely could never have imagined that he would make headlines in this way.
And for the entire entertainment industry, it is a time of great fear for everyone.
To halt the downward trend of stock prices and salvage investor confidence, some film companies rushed to publish clarifying statements.
They claimed to have no cooperation whatsoever with Wang Taixiong or his company, distancing themselves completely.
Of course, many celebrities, directors, and others also issued statements to address their fans’ eager concerns.
Some claimed they had no cooperation with Wang Taixiong, some even boldly claimed to not know him at all.
But the result…
Wu Jie quickly set up a self-media channel called ‘Knight’ on Dashenpai.
He published a wealth of evidence, and within minutes, their lies were slapped in the face!
Having been an industry tycoon for many years, Wang Taixiong had a long history.
One only needed to look at the movies and TV shows he had previously released.
The names of the combined production companies and the detailed list of actors were clearly listed.
Yet they had the gall to claim no cooperation or that they didn’t recognize him…
This level of shamelessness was simply too much.
This face-slapping moment was indeed an instant swelling.
Faced with the torrent of public outrage and various criticisms from countless netizens, film companies, celebrities, directors, scriptwriters, and so on had no choice but to hurriedly delete their statements and announcements.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and the screenshots had been preserved.
The competition in the entertainment industry has always been fierce.
Without Wu Jie having to do much, other celebrities and film companies joined the battle, adding fuel to the fire.
And of course, hot topics are what attract the most attention.
So, many teams followed suit, with a massive amount of entertainment gossip articles rapidly spreading everywhere.
Good news stays within doors, but bad news travels far and wide!
In this era of advanced networks, how could such a huge event possibly be hidden?
Less than four hours after Wang Taixiong’s arrest, netizens had already blown up the internet.
Moreover, some of those with guilty consciences went to the authorities to confess voluntarily.
Admitting to participating in Wang Taixiong’s money laundering activities, inflating the immense acting fees, and extensive tax evasion…
As the news spread, it made the whole situation explode even further.
Just a few days ago, people were relishing the story of the underdog Wu Jie’s remarkable counterattack on the beautiful CEO Tang Xiao.
And then there was the discussion about the big star Bai Fengling, who suffered years of exploitation by her family, followed by the debate on how to deal with family and money.
From last night to today, the focus was supposed to be on the heartthrob He Yaoxi joining Dashenpai, but then…
The entertainment industry truly never lacks blockbuster events!
Wang Taixiong’s arrest was like igniting a huge volcano; once it erupted, it was unstoppable.
The waters in the entertainment circle are inherently deep, and with Wang Taixiong known as a film tycoon, his arrest has indeed set off a chain reaction.
The timid have already turned themselves in, seeking leniency by confessing.
The bold do not dare to make careless statements, fearing a backlash if they published announcements only to be slapped in the face again.
Those not directly involved not only experience schadenfreude; there are many who kick a man while he is down.
Thus, as Wang Taixiong fell, he not only implicated many people but also became a loathed figure, with everyone clamoring against him.
…
Night falls.
The number of onlookers increases, and naturally, everyone is excited about such sensational news.
Who turns themselves in, whose statements are inconsistent and full of contradictions, who seems to be involved in the scandal…
The spectators do not mind if things get too big; they indulge in wild ridicule and reposts with mockery.
And the star-chasing fans are also on edge, fearing that their beloved idols might also be dragged into the fray.
As for Wu Jie, the instigator of this storm, he is both loved and hated.
Some praised for his resilience, while others hated and cursed.
But what did it have to do with Guan Ge?
Nothing!
The most important thing tonight was that Bai Fengling was treating everyone to dinner.
A big star inviting for dinner is quite rare, you know!
Last time during Tang Xiao’s birthday celebration, nobody really enjoyed the meal.
This time, Bai Fengling had summoned Zhang Hao, who was busy decorating the sales department, to cook and prepared a lavish feast for everyone.
Around seven in the evening,
Tang Xin, Zhu Cui, Lin Yuan… the guests had all arrived one after another.
Bai Fengling was too busy to chat.
The arrest of Wang Taixiong was a big deal in the circle.
Some artists were like frightened birds, while others were eagerly discussing it.
Nobody knew how the situation would unfold, it all depended on whether Wang Taixiong would confess voluntarily.
However, with such a big stir, it was natural for Tang Xin and others to be concerned and ask.
Thump thump!
Wu Jie, bringing Tang Xiao with him, knocked on the door as they entered.
Upon seeing Bai Fengling, Tang Xiao immediately asked with concern,
“Wang Taixiong’s arrest won’t cause you any harm, will it?”
Bai Fengling shook her head and explained,
“The first movie I was supposed to do with him hasn’t even started filming yet, and his company’s capital chain already broke, didn’t it?”
“Even if there were issues with our collaboration, it would be between him and Liuli City’s Xu Media, nothing to do with me!”
With that, Bai Fengling called everyone to take their seats.
But Tang Xiao didn’t sit down, instead, she looked around and laughed,
“Tianyuan Haoting is truly the best commercial and residential complex in the city center.
The design of this apartment and the quality of the decor really offer good value for money!”
Tang Xin immediately asked with a smile, “Sis, why do I feel like it’s your first time here?
Isn’t your and Jie’s marital home in this complex too?”
Tang Xiao laughed, “My dad is handling the decoration; why would I come over to see that?
In fact, I don’t even know where the house is!”
Wu Jie interjected, “After we eat, I’ll take everyone over to take a look!”
“What’s there to see, it’s still being decorated.
Instead of that, let’s play mahjong later!” Tang Kun pointed to the game room, “I’ve found that there are automatic mahjong tables inside, two of them!”
“Great!
I haven’t played it in a long time!”
Fang Qingya immediately raised her hand, “I suggest not to bet too high, five hundred is enough!”
In an instant!
Zhu Cui almost choked on her water and the smile on Lin Yuan’s face turned awkward.
Just for a game of mahjong, they were starting at five hundred.
If someone played a winning hand with a clean suit and kongs, wouldn’t that result in a loss or win of tens of thousands?
Can’t help it!
These folks were all too extravagant.
Wu Jie thought that Bai Fengling, who loved money as if it were her life, would decline, given that a slight misstep could lead to a significant loss.
And the result?
“Sure!
Let’s see who among us has the best luck tonight!”
Tang Xin immediately rolled up her sleeves, full of spirit,
“Ha!
Not to brag, but I’ve never lost at mahjong!”
“Don’t boast!
Be careful not to burst your bubble!”
“Is it a mule or a horse?
Just bring it out for a walk and we’ll know, right?”
…
Women love to gossip, and they also have quite the addiction to mahjong.
Wu Jie helped Zhang Hao bring dishes to the table, and after a bustling dinner, they quickly cleaned up together.
Tang Xin, Fang Qingya, Tang Kun, and Bai Fengling rushed to set up the first table.
Even Tang Le and Tang Kang, the brother-sister duo, wanted to form a team, insisting on taking turns to challenge the likes of Lin Yuan, Zhu Cui, and Zhang Hao.
Wu Jie could tell, not one of them wanted to be the third wheel; they all had pretty good EQ!
Which was fine, as it happened to give him a chance to take Tang Xiao to see the marital home.
But…
Life is full of chance encounters!
Wu Jie, walking with Tang Xiao, came to Building One and couldn’t help but think they might bump into Chu Yunxuan coming home from work.
As the elevator doors opened, damn, they indeed ran into her.
Tang Xiao and Chu Yunxuan, who had just met that morning, encountered each other again in the elevator.
Chu Yunxuan seemed to have been prepared for this and wasn’t too surprised.
It was Tang Xiao who looked shocked; after all, Chu Yunxuan’s financial capability and the price of housing in this complex didn’t match up.
“Huh!
You live here too?”
