Chapter 1385: Chapter 718: Joining the Crew (3)
Song Chi listened, pondered for a moment, and said, "If that’s the case, then you really might have been deceived by Xu Yiqing."
Zhou Yun said, "I don’t really know what’s going on with this matter, but Wu Huyuan’s personal information is now exposed online, he’s being criticized by a lot of people. If the truth isn’t what Xu Yiqing said, then he’s being affected wrongly, and I really feel bad pretending as if nothing happened."
Song Chi pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, indeed. However, this matter is also hard for you to handle. No matter what, it’s a matter between the two of them. You can’t prove anything for Xu Yiqing, nor can you speak on behalf of Wu Huyuan. You don’t truly understand what’s going on between them, do you?"
Zhou Yun nodded, feeling troubled: "Yes, that’s just it. I think the difficult part about this matter lies right here."
Song Chi said, "How about this, let your studio post a Weibo, explaining the situation from your perspective, mainly distancing yourself from her and Wu Huyuan breaking up. Now, Xu Yiqing’s video gives people the illusion that she’s the victim and you’re the protector who reached out, linking you two together."
Zhou Yun: "I’ll talk to Sister Lan and see what they ultimately decide to do."
Who would have thought, Zhou Lan’s approach was even simpler, more direct, and straightforward.
Zhou Lan directly contacted Xu Yiqing herself, using the private message content she received to verify its authenticity with Xu Yiqing.
Xu Yiqing admitted that the chat records were real but also told Zhou Lan that the reason she proactively proposed to break up with Wu Huyuan was because Wu Huyuan had cheated on her behind her back. That’s why they broke up, but Wu Huyuan initially refused and kept begging her not to break up. The chat records were processed by Wu Huyuan, and all the related parts were deleted.
Then, Xu Yiqing sent her chat record screenshots to Zhou Lan.
Zhou Lan was stunned, not expecting to have turned the situation into a Rashomon-like affair.
But she was not idle either; she immediately forwarded Xu Yiqing’s statements to the person who sent the private messages to the studio’s Weibo.
Zhou Lan was curious to see what the outcome would be when the two confronted each other.
Meanwhile, Zhou Lan also began contacting various platforms to try to dampen the heat of the matter, preventing it from escalating too much.
The platform contacts were very puzzled, unable to understand.
They didn’t know why Zhou Lan wasn’t willing to promote this matter.
Zhou Lan did not provide any explanations either.
At the Moon Sinking at Sea film crew, Zhou Yun had had a meal with everyone, gotten acquainted, and then returned to the set with Song Chi.
The production manager thoughtfully gave Song Chi half a day off today.
Zhou Yun just arrived, so Song Chi understandably wanted to spend some time with Zhou Yun.
...
Moon Sinking at Sea is an ensemble drama, a spy-themed ensemble drama.
Everyone has quite a bit of screen time.
This project is the most important one in Chen Wenjun’s portfolio, without exception.
He knew Zhou Yun was joining today, so he personally flew over.
The drama hasn’t been completely sold yet because several platforms are still bidding, each wanting to get a hold of this "king drama" with great potential.
Spy drama + Zhou Yun + Song Chi + Zhi Wei + all-star cast, bursting with potential.
Moreover, since the project’s inception, it’s been highly anticipated and watched closely.
He had already asked his secretary to book a restaurant, inviting Zhou Yun for dinner tonight.
Just her alone.
Zhou Yun found it strange, wondering why Chen Wenjun didn’t simply invite Song Chi along too.
Song Chi lay back on the bed, contentedly resting his right hand behind his head.
He said to Zhou Yun, "Maybe there are things that aren’t convenient to say when I’m around. These film company bosses, you know, really like creating a feeling that they value and cherish you, hoping you can establish a close working relationship with them."
Zhou Yun couldn’t help but laugh.
Song Chi: "Why are you laughing?"
Zhou Yun said, "Nothing, I just think you’re quite right."
Song Chi: "Anyway, Chen Wenjun has dragged me to dinner quite a few times. He keeps hinting that there are several projects to collaborate with you on."
Zhou Yun said: "That’s quite normal."
In the evening, Zhou Yun went to the appointment, and upon arriving, she discovered that besides Chen Wenjun, there was actually Teacher Zhi Wei there too.
Zhou Yun was very surprised.
She thought it was just going to be her and Chen Wenjun tonight.
"President Chen, Teacher Zhi Wei, sorry for keeping you waiting." Zhou Yun walked over, smiling face.
Seeing Zhou Yun approaching, Chen Wenjun immediately pulled out a chair and stood up, welcoming her with a smile: "No, we just got here too."
