【Ding Wanyu's Live Stream】
【Ding Wanyu, Sun Yuyang】
【Sun Yuyang's premarital debts】
【Sun Yuyang's Marriage Fraud】
【Sun Yuyang's real-life version of "No Bait"】
Ding Wanyu's live stream brought to the climax of tonight's farce.
After a bunch of trending terms appeared, new related terms immediately rose to the top. However, the trending search that the production team of "No Bait" secretly bought was quietly posted at the end and made it onto the trending search list.
Amidst this jumble of random terms, everyone quickly identified the key words.
【Holy crap, so the reason Ding Wanyu rejected Sun Yuyang's marriage proposal was because Sun Yuyang was hiding his debt situation and wanted to trick Ding Wanyu into marriage so she could pay off his debts?】
【Is Sun Yuyang an idol? He's become very famous these past few years, so he should have made a lot of money. Why would he still owe so much money? It's so strange.】
【I have a bad feeling. Has Sun Yuyang picked up some bad habit? Like gambling?】
Please do not spread rumors or make unverified claims.
【There was no fabrication, okay? We were just raising reasonable suspicions. Besides, Ding Wanyu provided screenshots of all the transfers. So much money was transferred over the years, and she never asked for it back after the breakup. It was all considered "hush money" for all these years, hoping for an amicable separation. But what happened? The matter of Ding Wanyu's child was leaked by Sun Yuyang's agent. Didn't they consider the fate of Ding Wanyu and her child?】
【This only proves it was done by Sun Yuyang's agent! What does it have to do with Sun Yuyang?】
【Oh right, it was all done by his manager, your brother knew nothing about it~】
【It's like a ghost story coming true! The plot of "No Bait" also seems to involve the male lead fabricating an identity to trick the female lead into marriage, right? Ding Wanyu isn't just playing a cameo role; she *is* the female lead in real life!】
【If I hadn't heard that "No Bait" was a script from ten years ago, I would have really thought that Director Ning and his team were based on this real-life figure when they filmed it—it's incredibly accurate!】
【Is this really not a deliberate attempt by someone to sabotage Sun Yuyang? Why are the comments section full of shills for "No Bait"? Could it be that someone is intentionally using Sun Yuyang as a sacrifice?】
【Whose house is this? Who are you pointing at here? Tell me, tell me! Name them and let everyone judge.】
【Hilarious! You say your Sun Yuyang was set up by capital? Well, we can say "No Bait" was set up by capital! The film premiered in Cannes, and tonight the female lead is exposed. I just want to ask, who's really in a worse situation?】
My hands were shaking from crying. I still couldn't believe Sun Yuyang was in a relationship. It felt like the sky was falling down.
【Damn it, why are you all crying? Our Brother Xiao hasn't even cried yet, who can we complain to?】
【Stop cursing, stop cursing. If you feel sad, you can click to pre-order "No Bait" for the May Day release~】
Ding Wanyu's strategy of "no destruction, no construction" allowed her to turn the tide through live streaming.
No one knows how she calmly spoke about her two past relationships in the face of a barrage of malicious comments. But after this live stream, no one asked Ding Wanyu about her child anymore. Rather than being a villain and digging into the privacy of a widow and orphan, people preferred to delve into the marriage fraud committed by top idol Sun Yuyang.
After all, the latter was concealing debts and using marriage as bait to try to obtain a large amount of money from the woman, which may involve fraud. And the fact that Sun Yuyang, an idol who is not short of money, would be short of money is truly intriguing.
Soon ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) after, a video of Sun Yuyang seemingly spotted near a well-known casino in a certain country went viral online.
Sun Yuyang had originally planned to feign death and let Ding Wanyu draw all the fire, but he didn't expect to be caught in the crossfire in the end.
However, these matters are no longer Xiao He's concern.
When Xiao He returned to the event, he learned that Director Ning had gotten into a fight with someone.
Um?
Did Director Ning get into a fight?
When Xiao He first heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, then picked at his ear.
"Who did he fight with?"
It's truly unbelievable that someone as old as Director Ning would get into such a heated argument with someone.
"It's all about online public opinion—"
The crew members were speaking in a mumbled manner when, just then, assistant director Xu Fuxue ran out from inside. Upon seeing Xiao He, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your hard work. I've seen the situation online. Director Ning is busy right now and will be out in a bit."
"I heard that Director Ning is here?"
Xiao He saw Xu Fuxue and looked at him with a questioning expression.
"Ahem, Director Ning is just meeting with an old friend. It's nothing, nothing at all."
Xu Fuxue said with a smile.
Five minutes later, the door to one of the screening rooms in the corridor was suddenly opened, and Ning Jiaqi walked out and slammed the door shut. The rest of the crew waiting outside rushed over to check what was going on.
"I'm fine."
Ning Jiaqi patted the hair he had pulled from somewhere, exhaled a breath of stale air, and shook his head at everyone with a smile.
"The premiere of 'No Bait' was a great success. Almost as soon as the movie ended, distributors kept handing us their business cards, and several judges seemed to really like your character."
Ning Jiaqi spoke to Xiao He as they walked, then paused, sighed apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, as the main character, you should have come with us to be interviewed and photographed by the media so that more people could get to know you."
Instead of rushing to deal with online public opinion in China before even attending his own movie premiere.
Upon further investigation, it turned out that he was the one who started this whole thing.
This made Ning Jiaqi feel embarrassed and ashamed.
Xiao He didn't care and comforted him directly: "It's okay, Director Ning. 'No Bait' is outstanding enough. Even if I don't show up this time, 'No Bait' will take my face and my name to the whole world, so that more people can know me and know that I exist."
He might be easily overlooked behind the scenes, but he's the main character! He's the absolute protagonist of "No Bait".
As long as "No Bait" can go further, he can go further!
Therefore, Xiao He did not have the same regrets as Director Ning.
"But Director Ning, why did you go to that screening room? Isn't 'No Bait' on the other side?"
Xiao He asked, feigning confusion.
Ning Jiaqi instantly snapped out of his regret and immediately launched into a rage: "It's that bastard Sun Gong! He's shameless, yet he tries to deliberately suppress us. He's really giving us a hard time—"
Although he already knew who the mastermind was, Xiao He learned more about the past from Ning Jiaqi.
It turns out that Sun Gong and Ning Jiaqi were both directors in the Beijing film circle who knew each other. They had collaborated when they were starting out, but later they each opened film and television-related companies and gradually became competitors.
However, since they were both representative figures of the Beijing film circle, and occasionally had to compete with the Hong Kong film circle and later the Shanghai film circle for the mainland market, their relationship should be considered quite good by outsiders.
But in reality, they had always been secretly competing with each other and putting each other down.
Back then, it was popular to "gild" one's resume abroad, which meant winning awards overseas. This was partly an internal task assigned by higher authorities, and partly a reflection of directors' own aspirations for international opportunities. As a result, it became a fervent pursuit for many directors, and the ambitious young Ning Jiaqi was no exception.
Like everyone else, he began to continuously create works and then compete for international awards.
