Reborn Queen’s Uprising

Chapter 44: Yang Shan’s Regret and Hatred

This was Yang Shan’s first time doing a solo interview, so it was natural for her to be a little nervous. Her eyes turned towards her manager, Zhao Le, who was sitting behind the stage. Zhao Le was currently busy chatting with a beautiful audience member beside him and did not pay any attention to the situation on stage at all, so he was completely ignoring Yang Shan.

After some hesitation, Yang Shan smiled with slight trepidation. “It should be Director Cao. Director Cao has always taken good care of me. During the many times I thought that I didn’t have the talent to act and wanted to quit, he would encourage me every time. Director Cao taught me a lot and I’m really grateful to him.”

Ouyang Wen and Wu Xibing exchanged smiles. Aha. This would be the angle they wanted to dig at.

Tang Xiaoxiao, who was sitting under the stage too, was currently crossing her legs casually. When she heard Yang Shan’s answer, she couldn’t help but snigger coldly. Yang Shan, you wanted to curry favor with Cao Hao, but you said something so stupid. No wonder Cao Hao liked you less and less.

When it concerned such questions, any celebrity with experience would always answer that everyone in the cast treated them really well. Although this answer sounded a little politically correct, it was one that did not offend anyone. If you’re grateful to one, wouldn’t you be grateful to the others? You had to know that with everyone being in the same cast, everyone would definitely help you in some way or another. If you’re only grateful to one and only acknowledged one, how would the others accept it?

Besides, you actually thanked the director in response to such a question? What a pig’s brain! What will others think if a newbie’s role in her first movie was the female lead? They wouldn’t think anything else apart from hidden rules and dark sides of the entertainment industry! The industry already had great criticisms towards Cao Hao for choosing a complete newbie as his female lead to begin with, yet you’re adding oil to the fire and thanking Cao Hao only in a show, saying that he encouraged and helped you…

Aren’t you just complicating things?

The only reason why you wanted to curry Cao Hao’s favor is probably because you wanted to get more movie roles from him in the future. But with what you’ve just said, the industry and public will definitely mistake that there was some deep relationship between Cao Hao and you. With Cao Hao’s carefulness and prudence, he definitely won’t work with you again in order to avoid arousing more suspicion, in case the rumors become more real as it spreads.

Jiang Shang immediately perked up as he continued to ask carefully, “Then, Shanshan ah, we heard that there was a rumor about you changing your manager a while back…”

Before he finished speaking, everyone heard a loud bang. Yang Shan had already stood up with a dark expression. When she moved back, she actually kicked the chair behind her and made it fall. She clamored impatiently, “Are all of you done with talking about it? Why are you so annoying? Why is everyone asking me this question? She’s the one that framed me on purpose and she’s the one that was ungrateful, what does it have to do with me? If you’re that capable, you can go look for her! She’s just sitting there, how about you go and ask her!”

Yang Shan’s sudden explosion of righteous anger made the entire room fall silent. No one would have thought that as a newbie, Yang Shan would actually be so furious that she threw the chair. This was definitely ruthlessly slapping the entire show in the face!

The four emcees’ expressions changed immediately. Yang Shan’s temper was definitely giving them a slap in the face!

When he heard Yang Shan’s furious shout, Zhao Le instantly felt a bead of cold sweat trailing down his face. He instantly stood up from amongst the audience. “Stop! Stop! Stop recording now! Director, delete this part!”

The four emcee’s expression looked terrible. They were already unhappy with Yang Shan’s disrespectful behavior during the singing of the movie’s theme song earlier and with Yang Shan throwing a temper in front of the audience, the already bad atmosphere instantly fell below freezing point.

Ouyang Wen side-eyed Yang Shan as he asked sternly, “Miss Yang, aren’t you being too extreme with your response? We only asked this question today to give you a chance to explain the situation. Yet, you don’t even appreciate it?”

Beside him, Wu Xibing glared at Yang Shan with equal contempt. “Miss Yang, you dared to ruin our set even though you’re a newbie? You’re the first to be so daring. Do you think the four of us are really nice people?”

“You’re ill-rewarding our kindness!”

Yang Shan’s face instantly paled as cold sweat trailed down her cheeks. She had simply lost control of her emotions at that moment earlier. The matter of her changing managers in the recent days had blown up and she, whose career was originally smooth flowing, had suddenly fallen from the skies to the depths of the valley. This feeling made her suffer a lot and Shengshi Entertainment’s squeezing every bit of her worth made her feel even more bitter…

With a loud slap, Zhao Le, the manager that had always treated her “really well”, actually slapped her ruthlessly in front of everyone!

“Shanshan, apologize to the emcees and the entire show’s cast!” Zhao Le said sternly.

Yang Shan cupped her cheek as tears welled in her eyes. She pointed at Zhao Le in disbelief as she cried, “You… you… you dare to hit me?”

“You a**hole! You actually dared to hit my daughter… I’ll fight with you!”

Mrs Yang, who rushed over from backstage after hearing what had happened, saw her daughter being bullied and waved her claws at Zhao Le like a crazed beast. She scratched and grabbed at him. Unguarded, Zhao Le was scratched accurately by Mrs Yang, and five bloodied marks instantly appeared on his face, extending from the left of his face to the right. The fiery pain made him exclaim unconsciously before he realized what had happened. He instantly pushed Mrs Yang onto the floor and kicked at her ruthlessly twice, as he cursed, “You crazy b*tch!”

“You’re not allowed to hit my mother!”

Yang Shan did her best to protect Mrs Yang with her body. Unable to react in time, Zhao Le’s leg actually kicked Yang Shan onto the floor too. Yang Shan, who was hit, naturally wasn’t backing down as she rushed forward to grab Zhao Le. The scene turned into a huge mess in an instant…

Ouyang Wen’s head started to hurt, as he glanced at the show’s director with a helpless gaze. “Director, enforce the emergency measures quickly. If not, our show might become the media’s joke of the day tomorrow.”

The director shrugged with a bitter smile. “Ouyang, we can’t do anything to stop them when things have already become like this…”

Although the show’s producing team, the movie cast and Shengshi Entertainment made an agreement for Shengshi Entertainment to give everyone a thousand dollars so as to keep their mouths shut and did their best to hide this matter, it was a pity that nothing in this world was concealable. News of the matter would still spread and there were even photos of the three fighting on the internet within seconds. Although the resolution of the photo wasn’t very clear and it was obvious the photo was taken sneakily, Yang Shan’s distorted appearance was still caught straight on.

Having debuted with a refreshing jade girl’s image, while having an innocent and adorable appearance, being promoted by a well-known director, and also having a strong backer, the Shengshi Entertainment, it could be said that Yang Shan was already in the best position anyone could be in. However, she had just risen to fame when people started to scold her for being ungrateful. Not to mention she had thrown a temper and fought with someone at the broadcasting station today…

…

“B*tch! You’ve yet to earn any money for the company and you’ve already done such an embarrassing thing?” A loud howl trailed from a certain office in the 42-storey building of Shengshi Entertainment’s headquarters. With that, a loud slap was heard and a girl’s cries suddenly filled the room. “Why are you crying? You actually dare to cry? Let me warn you, Yang Shan! The company has already spent a large amount of money to help you settle this issue. You’d better think about it yourself. If not, I don’t mind sending you to the public relations department!”
