After confirming the steps for whitewashing, Ji Min’s PR team acted swiftly. The scandal dropped at 1 PM, and by evening, the top trending hashtag on Weibo had already shifted from #PopularStarletJiMin’sPoorActingSkills to #MaleStarWithSurnameXArrestedForDrugsUse.
[After receiving reports from the public, the police found more than ten grams of drugs at the male star's residence that night.]
"Male star with the surname X, I think I've already guessed who it is. It is said that he was mentally a little abnormal when filming a popular TV series last year. I'm afraid he had already started taking drugs at that time."
"I usually see him always playing the role of a man who dotes on his wife, but I didn't expect him to do this kind of thing."
"I've already said it's a persona; how many can you believe? They put on an act in front of the camera, and they still do whatever they want behind the camera."
"The male star with the surname X has already been sent for a urine test. This news is most likely true."
Hao Peng held the tablet and looked at the comments under Weibo, frowning and saying, "Ji Min and her manager must have spent a lot of money to buy other people's dirt from the paparazzi. After they've done this, the netizens' attention has been diverted a bit, and I'm afraid the subsequent effect will be greatly reduced."
This Ji Min can mix so well in Tianhao Entertainment, which has so many female stars, not only because she is a tolerant person and has found a powerful sugar daddy, but also because she has a very powerful manager.
Unlike Hao Peng's mediocrity, Ji Min's manager is the one with the widest network and the most ruthless methods in the company. However... the manager when Ji Min first entered Tianhao Entertainment wasn't her, but another woman with a gentler personality and methods, but after Ji Min had a certain reputation, she immediately replaced the previous one.
Fu Yingyu, upon hearing the news, wasn't surprised at all. Calmly, she said, "I never thought that I could rely on this little bit to make Ji Min unable to turn over."
There are countless male and female stars in the entertainment industry whose acting skills are not up to par. Even if someone puts a video of her NG-ing a scene many times on the Internet, she will at most be ridiculed a few times. As long as she has resources in her hand, this negative news will not have much impact on a person's career at all.
Wanting to rely on this appetizer to bring down Ji Min... Fu Yingyu wasn't that naive.
Although being scolded for having bad acting skills wasn't painful or itchy for Ji Min, it was enough to keep her busy during this time.
Moreover, she was planning to add a little more fuel to this fire...
"Hao Peng, the photos I took of getting an IV drip in the hospital last week can be released at some point. You know what to do with the rest." Fu Yingyu would never show mercy to Ji Min... This was what she owed her. She wouldn't give up until she forced this woman to withdraw from the entertainment industry.
It was true that Ji Min's bad acting skills were nothing, but the fact that she NG-ed a scene many times, causing her to be rained on for more than an hour on the production team, was true. So it wasn't too much for her, the person involved, to go to the hospital for an injection and then be "accidentally" photographed by reporters, right??
Besides, she also needed a legitimate reason to terminate her contract with the company. She couldn't be backstabbed by the company afterward, leaving the public with the impression that she was "ungrateful" first.
—Bullied and ostracized by a fellow company actress, and ends up hospitalized. Disheartened, she terminates her contract with her agency.
What a headline. It was sure to draw traffic and would definitely add another blow to Ji Min. Fu Yingyu was confident Ji Min would love this little gift she sent before terminating the contract.
Thinking of Ji Min's ugly face when she would learn the whole story, Fu Yingyu was in a good mood and asked, "How's the talk with Qin Shi Entertainment? Did they agree?" She had already given up a full five percentage points of the commission, and the liquidated damages wouldn't be paid by their company for her. Qin Shi Entertainment had no reason to refuse such a good thing.
Fu Yingyu didn't care whether her salary commission was high or not. As long as she could make Ji Min not have a good time, she could still afford this little price.
When she was at Tianhao Entertainment, she finally fought her way to the top and had a reputation comparable to Ji Min, but she found that even for the sake of profit, the company would never allow two female stars to fight to the death in public. Therefore, as long as she was still at Tianhao Entertainment for a day, she shouldn't think about making Ji Min lose her reputation.
Given that, jumping ship to another agency was inevitable, it just happened a year earlier than planned.
Hao Peng smiled and said, "It's all settled. Qin Shi Entertainment said that their company welcomes you to join at any time."
It was just that if they terminated the contract in advance, they would have to pay the company nearly 20 million in liquidated damages. Although this was already the best result, and they could earn even more after going to Qin Shi Entertainment, Hao Peng still felt a pang of pain.

“Daddy Ke!!”
Ke Jingyang looked at the little girl running toward him, and his heart clenched. When will this damn parent-child variety show finally be over?
Thinking that today was only the second episode, Ke Jingyang immediately felt that he had no expectations for the future. No matter how many times, whenever he heard the little child Gu Suisui call him “Daddy Ke" in her soft, milky voice, he felt extremely awkward in his heart.
It was just a kind of indescribable feeling, but it wasn't to the point that Ke Jingyang hated Gu Suisui that much. Although the little girl had a problem with her eyes and couldn't see his handsome appearance, she was still very good in other aspects... He just simply didn't like taking care of children!!
Wouldn’t writing songs be more fun? Gaming? Why did he have to come to this damn parent-child variety show to take care of children!!
Just as Ke Jingyang was secretly considering whether he should say hello to his child in consideration of the many cameras around, the little child Lin Doudou took the first step and skipped past him. The two little beans held hands and chattered endlessly, looking like they had a particularly good relationship, completely forgetting his existence.
Ke Jingyang: "..."
Damn it!
For some reason, he felt even more upset!
