Albert Fang 's heart took a hard leap inside his chest. He severely nodded his head before he took Gu Jiao away from there. And despite being reluctant to leave after what happened just now, Gu Jiao knew that she couldn't stay there any longer.
What that man called President Song said just now was too obvious and she could clearly hear the blatant threat in his voice.
"Brother Albert, who exactly is that man?" Gu Jiao asked soon after they returned to her room.
Albert shook his head before taking a deep breath. "I don't know him that much. I only heard of him from the president once. However, I can tell you that that man is a dangerous person whom you can afford to offend."
Gu Jiao was dissatisfied with his answer. "Isn't President Tzongshi also very powerful? Why should I be afraid of offending him? He's just another wealthy young master, right?"
Another wealthy young master? Albert scoffed at this. If that man was just another wealthy young master who sucked up to his parents to get more money from them, then he doesn't know what the real wealthy young masters who relied on their parents' wealth would think?
"Don't say anymore, Brother Albert. I know that he's someone I cannot offend, but who said that I can just let go of that slut Ran Xueyi?" Gu Jiao gritted her teeth. She could still remember how the other person grabbed and pulled her hair until her scalp felt like it was burning. "I will never forgive her for what she did to me! Brother Albert, please help me get revenge!"
Albert stared at her silently for a few seconds. He also felt that what Ran Xueyi did to his artist was a bit too much. She was just an actress who lost her popularity and was planning to make a comeback after six years while on the other hand, Gu Jiao was a recently popular idol singer and new actress. If other people were to find out that Gu Jiao was bullied and forced to get out of a drama crew, who knew if Gu Jiao could hold on to her career in a few years?
He couldn't let that happen either. He should do something about this and not let them take all the losses to their side.
After thinking for a while, Albert finally acquiesced to her and said, "I know. I'll call the PR team on our side and use some water army to humiliate Ran Xueyi." Before Gu Jiao could sigh in relief after hearing his words, Albert continued to warn her, "As for you, take this opportunity to lay low for now and I will find a new project for you to work on."
Gu Jiao had no qualms about this and directly agreed, her eyes were burning bright with anger as she looked out of the window.
'Ran Xueyi, don't think I'm done with you!"
That evening, a lot of things happened. Two important people in the drama crew were fired and Producer Luo was stripped off his identity as Chief Producer Li's student as well as the producer of the film.
As for Gu Jiao and Cheng Han, who used underhanded means to delete, add and modify the script was also fired by Chief Producer Luo. They talked with their respective agency and legal team regarding their actions that led to them breaching their contracts. As for the crews who were involved in many other shady businesses in the past and present, they were sent to the police station to be investigated.
This action was too huge to be ignored by the press. The moment they picked up on these events, more and more people came to join and catch this hot issue and spread it on several news broadcasts and platforms.
Many passersby did not know what happened until these were spread about everywhere. The moment they found out that some of the crews were involved in dr*gs and other shameless stuff like sharing and threatening people with their private photos, people were too enraged and requested the government to take actions.
It was unknown whether the government officials heard the pleas and demands of the people, but not even several hours later, they posted a statement pertaining to this article. In their post, it was said that they already took action after a concerned citizen reported the shady business some people were doing. These people were sent to prison to be investigated furtherly and will be locked away if proven that they really did these things.
After receiving this statement from them, the passersby and netizens who was watching finally released a sigh and thanked the government for their quick actions while cursing out these corrupted people who ruin people's lives for their own benefit and entertainment.
Because of how many people were discussing this event and with the involvement of the police officials and government, the topic was pushed to the top trending list for an entire day.
Taking advantage of this hot issue, Brilliant Media made a wrong move. Just a few minutes before the Silver City's mayor's official page released his statement concerning this matter, they released a statement.
Soon after this statement was released by Gu Jiao's company, her fans went crazy.
--What the heck is the crew doing? Why the hell did you terminate my Goddess Gu's contract?!
--Why the hell did they have to terminate the contract? Our Goddess Gu didn't do anything wrong! It was the crew who produced corrupt people! #Demandinganswers #JusticeforGuJiao
--Ahhh, F*ck!!! This is so unfair. Our Goddess didn't do anything wrong!
--Hey, why is everyone making a ruckus? Can't you see that Goddess Gu got lucky due to this that she doesn't have to be in that corrupt drama?
--Upstairs is right. What I can see from this is that Goddess Gu made the right decision.
--I don't care! They should still tell us what reason they have to terminate the contract! I even bought a VIP ticket to the support club!
More and More fans came forward to demand justice and answers from both Brilliant Media and the drama crew of <A Thousand Lotus. They were quite ferocious in their comments that the latest post in the drama's official page was filled with Gu Jiao's fans' comments.
Gu Jiao saw that the situation was very ideal for her since many of her fans defended her. She stayed true to her words and remained lowkey this time. She didn't post or use her water army to spread rumors.
However, at this crucial moment, she made an inevitable mistake.
She liked a comment made by one of her fans.
--Gu Jiao is innocent. Why terminate her contract but not terminate other people's contract too? Isn't this a bit too crooked? I bet 10,000 yuan that someone is bullying Goddess Gu.
