608 A Continuous Battle Of Words
When Shi Bingbing went online again, she thought she would see even more threads bashing Song Ci to increase her reputation as the victim. In the end, she realized that the netizens’ comments about Song Ci were actually positive. Or rather, they simply did not believe that she would do such a thing! Of course, in Shi Bingbing’s opinion, Song Ci had spent money to deal with those marketing accounts. There was no way these brainless fans would really believe in Song Ci’s good nature.
It was a ridiculous thought. After all, they were all in the industry. Who would be able to get what they wanted without playing dirty? To make it as an actor and be able to play the popular lead roles, one would have to fight. Shi Bingbing did not believe that Song Ci did not have someone backing her up. Perhaps she was just being supported by someone wealthier, with better resources and powerful connections. If female celebrities did not take advantage of their youth to make a fortune, what were they waiting for? Shi Bingbing was a little jealous of Song Ci’s good fortune now. She had already investigated Song Ci. She was so stupid in the past, and her acting skills were not even as good as hers. To think there would be a day when she would make a comeback!
It was especially evident when she saw Song Ci’s reputation had recovered before Song Ci had even said anything. She was envious. If Song Ci had not picked up that role, the current situation would have been hers! Thinking it this way, how could Shi Bingbing accept it? She lowered the table in anger. There was nothing she could do now except smash the things in her house.
If only she had more money and a wide network, then she would not have to freeload off Song Ci’s popularity.
As Song Ci had been busy reading the script for ‘Rebirth’, she had no idea about the discussion that was going on online. This time, reading the script felt different. It was because her mentality had changed. Once she tried to view the story from the female lead’s point of view, she had a different understanding and perception.
“It’s getting late. Let’s go to sleep.” Lu Gan came back from the shower and sat beside Song Ci. He said to her, “Don’t you have work tomorrow? Come on, then.”
So Song Ci put the script down and very skillfully burrowed into Lu Gan’s arms.
Lu Gan hugged his wife in his arms and kissed her affectionately…
The next morning, Yang Haoran came to pick Song Ci up for the event.
Song Ci changed her clothes and went out. Her popularity was rising rapidly, even surpassing the popular Lin Ting. All sorts of luxury brand endorsements were here, wanting to collaborate with Song Ci, but she headed straight to Tiantian.
Although Song Ci was a female celebrity, she was still very cautious when it came to endorsements, unlike some people who would not let go as long as they saw a big brand endorsement deal. She valued her influence very much and was cautious about how her words and actions would affect her fans. Therefore, she carefully selected the partners she wanted to work with. Making sure there were no problems and that she liked the collaboration.
This was also because of Song Ci’s status, of course. If she did not have Lu Gan or Sunlight Media and only signed with a management company, she would not be able to make the decision. Therefore, every time it happened, Song Ci was really grateful to Lu Gan. She could not deny the convenience Lu Gan had given her.
When Song Ci appeared all dressed up at the venue, the fans immediately started screaming. By the sounds of all her fans, she could now say she had made it.
Song Ci waved at them before walking into the studio to begin filming.
The host first went through the process of asking a few basic questions before entering the stage of reporters and fans asking questions. As expected, a reporter immediately seized the opportunity and looked at the director. “May I ask what your impression of everyone is? Why did you choose Song Ci to star in such a major drama? After all, she’s not as experienced compared to the other actors in the cast.”
The director was already prepared for this question. He immediately laughed and said, “If you’re asking about this, then I’ll have to say more than a few words.”
He spoke with fervor and confidence, praising all the cast and crew members before purposely mentioning Song Ci last. “Song Ci is really a rare actress. What I like most about Song Ci is her attitude. After all, even if a person’s acting skills are good, I won’t use them if they don’t have character. When I was filming this movie, the role of Yu Xiaoyue didn’t belong to Song Ci but another actress. At that time, we had already signed the contract. However, when it was time for her to start filming, she had already been met with a better role. She felt she had too little screen time in our drama, so she broke the contract and left.”
