Chapter 6: 5.1

Tao An spent more than ten years in the entertainment industry before he crossed over. From a small calefare to a third-tier actor, he had seen the light and darkness of the entertainment industry.

He understood very well the consequences of cutting grass without eradicating its roots.

At Yin Zheng’s clarification press conference a month ago, since he chose to step on Yin Zheng to take his position, he must trample that person to death, until he was forever unable to turn over and make his comeback. Otherwise, he knew very well that once Yin Zheng had a chance to make a comeback, he would definitely not end well.

And no matter how many people he has offended, how bad his temper is, and how bad his acting skills are, Yin Zheng was someone who has been in this circle for ten years.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people who are close to Yin Zheng, Tao An who fell into his trap was a bit more hateful.

After all, although Yin Zheng had a bad temper, he was by no means a star who was particularly difficult to serve or loved to make things difficult for others.

Of course, it was precisely because of Yin Zheng’s dislike of homos*xuals that many people were shaken up, and they doubted that Yin Zheng actually had a crush on Tao An.

Among these people, Zhou Ziyan was included.

Tao An was aware of Zhou Ziyan’s thoughts, and he was very good at taking advantage of this.

Now, the second male lead position of the film he stole from Yin Zheng had been scheduled for more scenes recently, one after another. In addition, a small part of Yin Zheng’s previous scenes needed to be re-shot, and the crew was pressed hard, so the task was even more arduous.

Under such a high-pressure work arrangement, Tao An still did not forget to occasionally ask his assistant to inquire about the latest news about Yin Zheng.

“You said that he went to find Chu Yunsheng a few days ago?”

Tao An sat in the car and raised his head when he heard the assistant’s words, frowning slightly.

The assistant was Tao An’s cousin. Tao An did not trust outsiders especially after this incident with Yin Zheng, so after thinking about it, he called his cousin who didn’t go to school after graduating high school from his hometown and asked him to be his agent. After teaching him for a while, he arranged was arranged to stay by Tao An’s side.

Liu Lele was smart and diligent, and has been interested in the entertainment industry for a long time. He wished that his cousin would take him along.

Although he wasn’t quite sure why Tao An kept inquiring about Yin Zheng’s news and sent private investigators to investigate, but thinking about the rumors on the Internet and the clarification at the press conference, he felt that it was better not to ask too much.

“That’s right, cousin.”

Liu Lele lowered his voice and said, “Didn’t the film emperor Chu get involved in the derailment of the film queen Wang Xuan before? And there were quite a few paparazzi watching him. But then he kept up his act of ignoring things and feigning ignorance, and the studio issued a statement before everything settled down. He hasn’t had a new work for more than a year, so his popularity is declining and no one is following him any longer.”

When Yin Zheng went to see Chu Yunsheng, he went there in broad daylight, and even brought an old man with him. Later, when the old man left, Yin Zheng also left before dark, and he didn’t avoid anyone at all, so he didn’t look like he was in trouble. Coupled with the fact that the popular Xiaohua has revealed her love affair in the past two days, no one would care about the likes of Yin Zheng and Chu Yunsheng.”

“If I hadn’t had dinner with that media editor last night and heard it, I wouldn’t have known about it…”

Liu Lele babbled while Tao An took a sip of water, and his brows slowly loosened.

He had all the memories of the original Tao An, and he deeply hated that the original body was a fool.

When Yin Zheng got angry, he would yell at him. Occasionally, he would be in a good mood and the original host would act like a dog to please him, making Tao An angry.

He doesn’t feel much psychological burden when framing Yin Zheng. Anyway, Yin Zheng didn’t take his original body as a person, and in his opinion, Yin Zheng was only a vase with popularity but no acting skill. He had a bunch of brain-dead fans licking his face. A scum of the entertainment industry, it’s better if he left earlier.

Tao An thinks that under normal circumstances, after Yin Zheng was suppressed, he should be depressed and let it go. If he has any awareness, he will quickly quit the entertainment industry and become an Internet celebrity, so that things will not end too uglily.

But he didn’t expect that Yin Zheng actually went to find Chu Yunsheng.

Tao An had seen many films of Chu Yunsheng when he first crossed over

He really knew Chu Yunsheng’s strength too well. He was a natural actor, someone well-deserved to be called an actor.

Chu Yunsheng’s last work before he went to study was “The Psycho”, which was about a strange world. The world was made up of mediocre people, while all geniuses with high IQs and great creativity were regarded as mentally ill. From the day they revealed their unusual characteristics, they would be put in a mental hospital for treatment.

The film revolved around this mental hospital and describes countless grotesque and absurd scenarios. Chu Yunsheng played the male lead, a genius-like lunatic. He knew how to hide since he was a child. After discovering the rules of this world, he put a mediocre shell on himself and tried every means to inherit the mental hospital.

He was a patient in a mental hospital and also its director.

He would use his authority and the mentally ill people to engage in R&D and creation. He would sometimes revel as if he was really crazy, but he would also act ordinary and cowardly in the outside world, without arousing anyone’s suspicion.

At the end of the film, the changes in the mental hospital were discovered. People from the outside rushed in. Chu Yunsheng and the patients used technological weapons to defeat them and took over the whole world.

He put these people in the mental hospital and looked at them through an iron gate. He thought he had achieved what he wanted and was free.

But the end was not a happy liberation.

In the last scene, Chu Yunsheng was standing outside the door, when he suddenly remembered that when he was a child many years ago, when he was only four years old, he was standing outside the mental hospital like this, looking inside.

Now that he was older, he was no longer that confused child. He looked at the patients inside and the patients outside, and fell into a daze.

This was a scene that became a classic.

This somewhat absurd and slightly cool film received an unexpected sublimation because of the final ending.

It was full of irony, deep connotation, and thought-provoking. It quickly swept all the heavyweight awards of the year.

The actor Chu Yunsheng was also nominated for Best Actor at the Jinna Film Festival, one of the three major international film festivals, with this film.

Although he failed to win the award, there was absolutely no doubt about Chu Yunsheng’s acting skills.

Tao An didn’t believe that Yin Zheng would visit Chu Yunsheng for no reason. The old man Liu Lele mentioned was probably the matchmaker. Based on Tao An’s understanding of Yin Zheng, Yin Zheng was an unbeatable young man. He was blindly optimistic all day long. It was really possible that he went to Chu Yunsheng for help.

He went to Chu Yunsheng to learn acting, or to audition?

No matter which one, it was not what Tao An wanted to see.

But Tao An didn’t show anything on the surface.

He sent Liu Lele to get a box lunch, and sat in the car to message Zhou Ziyan.

Although the first meeting between Tao An and Zhou Ziyan was not good, the sincerity shown by Zhou Ziyan recently made him believe in love.

Besides, he knew that there might be something wrong with his physique – as a real man, he was pregnant.

He didn’t want to be regarded as a monster, and he didn’t know if a man could have an abortion, so he did not act rashly.

And now that his relationship with Zhou Ziyan was getting better and better, he also feels that he may not need to abort the child anymore. With the love Zhou Ziyan had shown so far, he should be willing to accept his physique and child. But whether or not to confess, Tao An would have to try again.

Thinking of this, Tao An’s voice on WeChat couldn’t help but become more intimate: “Zi Yan, do you know the latest news about Yin Zheng? I heard that he has terminated his contract with the company. I want to find a time to visit him.”

Zhou Ziyan called immediately.

Tao An smiled, and when he picked up, he heard a low and magnetic male voice coming through the speaker, the coldness in his tone was replaced by gentleness: “Xiao An, why did you suddenly remember Yin Zheng? He terminated the contract with the company, but this was done by the board of directors. It was decided that his bad image now had violated the contract.”

Tao An smiled embarrassedly: “So that’s the case… I just don’t want you to target him. After all, he didn’t really do anything, so there’s no need to force him so hard.”

There was a hint of soft-heartedness towards Yin Zheng in his generous tone.

When Zhou Ziyan heard it, his tone changed slightly. He suppressed his displeasure and continued to say softly, “I know, Xiao An. But only hard-hearted people in this circle can live well. It’s not good to be as soft-hearted as you.”

Tao An was silent for a while, and whispered unhappily, “Didn’t you say you would protect me…”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard Zhou Ziyan’s breathing change. Tao An didn’t wait for Zhou Ziyan to say anything, and quickly continued, “Lele is back, I’m going to eat first” and hung up the phone.

He wouldn’t never let Yin Zheng get up.

On the other side, in the office of President Zhou.

Zhou Ziyan stared at the phone screen for a while. A gentle helpless smile appeared on his stern face.

But after putting down the phone, his smile disappeared immediately.

He picked up another mobile phone and made a call. After hearing the news that Yin Zheng visited Chu Yunsheng and joined Chu Yunsheng in the group “Sky Blue Murder”, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes.

And the crew of “Sky Blue Murder” nestled in a remote corner of the world had absolutely no idea what was waiting for them in a few days.
