Xia Yangyang feigned hurt and complained, “Why are you so good at crushing my spirit?”
Chen Yu let out a serious sigh, “Shen Manbing has been in this circle for ten years. Although somewhat spoiled and capricious, she commands immense respect and her acting skills are top-notch. Especially, she’s friends with all of the judges for the SH Film Festival, which is hosted by Global International Entertainment. The president of Global is one of Shen Manbing’s admirers. She’s a person who’s both capable and lucky. How can you possibly beat her?”
Nonetheless, Xia Yangyang appeared unconcerned, “Alright, Chen Yu. You can stop talking now. Worst case scenario, I quit acting. That’s not a big deal to me.”
Looking at the rebellious girl in front of him, Chen Yu was at a loss for words.
In this industry, so many people scramble and compete for one or two roles. Some of them have been in the industry for a dozen years, yet remain minor performers.
But she’s different.
She soared to stardom the moment she began her acting career, earning a nomination for Best Actress after just one TV series.
She clearly has a bright future ahead of her.
Yet, she does not seem to care.
But then, Xia Yangyang thought of something.
Xia Yangyang asked Chen Yu, “Do you know what’s going on inside Starlight?”
As Starlight’s top talent, Chen Yu had even been given a stake in the company by Xia Liangdong to retain him.
For that reason, Chen Yu was also one of the shareholders of Starlight.
With the mention of this, Chen Yu furrowed his brows, “I don’t know about the rest, but I do know that nearly all big-name stars Starlight relied on have left.” “Why did that happen?”
With a grave look, Chen Yu replied, “In recent years, your father has been largely hands-off with the company’s affairs, leaving them to your stepmother instead. However, she has little business acumen, makes arbitrary decisions, and is overly harsh with performers. I’m not surprised to see Starlight in its current state.”
Xia Yangyang started feeling distressed.
She was well aware of the situation Chen Yu described.
But for the past decade, regardless of what Liu Ruyan was like, she was the person Xia Liangdong trusted most.
Therefore, there were certain things Xia Yangyang felt awkward discussing with her father.
It seemed like Chen Yu remembered something though, “However, Yangyang, there is one thing you should pay particular attention to.”
“What is it?”
“I once saw your stepmother with…”
Chen Yu stopped midway through his sentence: “Never mind, I don’t have solid proof. Anyway, keep an eye on your stepmother, who she meets, who she hangs out with.”
All this seemed very perplexing to Xia Yangyang.
What on earth was Chen Yu trying to insinuate?
Just then, Xiao Mi suddenly appeared.
“Sister Yangyang, Brother Chen Yu, it’s time to walk the red carpet and make our entrance.”
Xia Yangyang and Chen Yu left the hotel together.
Luxury cars were parked downstairs to chauffeur guests.
They were all top-of-the-range automobiles.
The drive from the hotel to the venue was just three minutes away.
But the organizers probably prepared over a hundred luxury cars to transport the stars.
Chen Yu assisted Xia Yangyang into a convertible Ferrari.
The car started moving slowly.
As there were drones filming from above.
From the moment they left the hotel.
All their movements were projected onto a giant screen at the end of the red carpet.
Just a few minutes later, their car arrived.
The Film Festival was held at Jolson Grand Hall.
A five-hundred-metre red carpet was laid out in front of the hall.
Both sides of the red carpet were lined with barricades and a wall of security personnel.
Countless journalists were taking photos and filming outside the barricades.
Flashes were popping all over the red carpet. It was a star-studded scene filled with gleaming lights….
