Chapter 191: In Pursuit of Perfection
Bai Zhi and the others finished eating lunch before leaving the hotel, where there were already paparazzi and journalists waiting outside. They ended up leaving through the basement garage.
Bai Zhi pouring juice on Zhu Yu’s face was naturally big news, stirring up all the paparazzi in the area.
Who let this incident leak out?
There’s no such thing as a windproof wall. Nonetheless, it wasn’t just one or two people who’d seen their quarrel. Even if they didn’t mention it, it must have leaked out from some other conversations. There were many people willing to spill this news to large media companies and their corresponding journalists; it could be considered a favor even.
As for Zhu Yu, who really wanted this to blow up, at least on Wei Bo, had already been stopped by his manager. They also restrained him from speaking of the situation in public. Not a peep!
Before, Zhu Yu always leeched popularity from Bai Zhi, which company let slide, even defending Zhu Yu in front of Bai Zhi on certain occasions. The reason was simple; company profit.
Zhu Yu had signed a long term contract at their company, and there were still five years left. During this time, they were happy to see any improvement in Zhu Yu’s popularity and rating.
And rumors were rumors, so they can easily be suppressed and prevented from damaging Bai Zhi’s reputation. It might even bring Bai Zhi more popularity too. Although she was very unhappy with the arrangement and complained several times, the company would always chuckle and avoid the problem.
This time, the company’s method of treatment was very simple as well. Company profit.
No matter what, this incident was going to harm Bai Zhi’s reputation! The company would be crazy to ask Zhu Yu to do such a thing!
Based on popularity and revenue earning alone, Zhu Yu couldn’t even be compared to Bai Zhi.
Zhu Yu felt wronged and couldn’t suppress himself, but the company’s response was simple. Deal with it!
As for Bai Zhi, the company had hoped this incident would go away on its own, and even suggested the guy who’d pushed Zhu Yu, Meng Fan, apologize in private to Zhu Yu. Seeing Bai Zhi’s firm rejection of this request, they could only wait it out.
As for Su Qing Cen, the company had asked Zhu Yu’s manager to personally apologize to her. Although it had nothing to do with Su Qing Cen, she was still present at the time, and the manager had apologized for disrupting her dining experience.
If Su Qing Cen had been under the same company, the process would be much easier, but unfortunately, she wasn’t. Who knew what her company must think?
Why must they be so feeble?
They couldn’t afford to anger her of course!
However, the incident couldn’t be covered up when it came to the public. But at least there were no photos or images, or photos of Bai Zhi pouring juice. Let them guess. As long as the people present didn’t say anything, the whole incident would blow over in a couple of days.
…
The 11/11 gala had a relatively lax rehearsal schedule. Basically, you rehearsed whenever you arrived, since there was a large portion of celebrities attending who didn’t sing or dance. The ones who sing and dance only made up a dozen or so.
After all, all the singers performing were all top tier celebrities.
Of course, the final rehearsal was very strict. Unless you were so incredible you didn’t have to show up. Everyone had to follow the procedure.
Bai Zhi and the group arrived early after lunch and didn’t see any other celebrities there. The director saw them and immediately scheduled their rehearsal.
The only thing that surprised the director was this sand artist. He was almost too young, definitely a student that hasn’t graduated yet. Only, he seemed to be very close to Su Qing Cen and Bai Zhi, who were willing to adjust their schedule for him, and willing to give him the time to adjust, no matter how long. The director also had plenty of time on his hands and did not object to this.
Only this young sand artist said his previous videos weren’t good and wanted to replace them, which made the director and his crew very displeased.
It wasn’t a big deal that he wanted to change the video, but his attitude was offensive!
We aren’t playing, kid!
“huh?”
After watching the entire video in slightly irritation, the director and his crew lit up.
