The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 321

Su Yang worked so hard to save the equipment that she could not get up. Many people in the crew also caught a cold due to the early arrival of heavy rain, so the crew suggested taking a day off.

Qin Wei was fine, but considering that everyone was exhausted, she also agreed.

This kind of day off should be a good sleep, but the crew called her to attend the meeting.

However, when she went downstairs, she only saw Shen Kai.

Qin Wei instantly understood that it was Shen Kai who tricked the staff to get her out.

"Let's go out for a walk?"

Shen Kai patted the SUV behind him,

"Or go for a drive?"

"No."

Qin Wei scratched her hair and turned to go back to her room to continue dreaming, when she heard Shen Kai say:

"You attach great importance to this drama, I can feel it, but your reputation is really not good at the moment, it will affect this drama, and I can help you more."

This made Qin Wei a little moved.

Qiao Sixiao's investment and efforts should not be compromised because of her.

But...

"You're not trying to take advantage of me, are you?"

Shen Kai: "???"

Qin Wei took half a step back, her eyes full of vigilance:

"I do care about this drama, but I'm not that kind of person!"

Shen Kai sighed:

"I'm not that kind of person either, I really want to do more for you."

...

There was no one in the hotel restaurant. Shen Kai made sure with his assistant before taking her there.

It was just the two of them, which made Qin Wei a little uneasy.

"No one will take pictures of us."

Shen Kai took out two cans of coffee, opened them in front of her, and placed them on the table in front of her,

"Let's get down to business. Your reputation online has been really bad lately, obviously someone is setting you up. I've had people look into it, Song Shi and Huo Yu..."

"Tell me something I don't know."

Qin Wei absentmindedly fiddled with the coffee can in her hand, her eyebrows lowered.

"This is a commercial value analysis report done for you by professionals."

Shen Kai came prepared and took out the report, 𝘧𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝓮𝒷𝓷𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝓬𝓸𝓂

"The overall business value still does not match so-called first-line artists in the industry, but it has grown the fastest in the past year. Even with the worst reputation right now, your business value remains stable...

In other words, the brands you work with have not considered replacing you."

Qin Wei took the report and flipped through it casually.

"I have to thank the purchasing power of my fans, as well as your team's screening of endorsed products."

Seeing that she remained silent, Shen Kai went on,

"No need to say more about your fans' purchasing power, it has always been strong. And the haters who make trouble for you also make trouble for the sponsors. But the brands' quality and management are up to standard. There is annoyance but sales are not affected. Business is about interests, interests are still there, so they won't abandon you."

Qin Wei put down the report, rested her cheek in her hand and looked at Shen Kai:

"I asked you to tell me something I don't know."

Shen Kai also looked up at her, took out his phone and showed her the video—

The video showed the interview she encountered when she left the hospital that day, shot by some unknown media with the camera aimed at her alone.

"Miss Qin Wei, when can you apologize to the public? Or do you think you've done nothing wrong from beginning to end?"

That was the reporter's question, but the edited footage showed when Qin Wei was asked to take off her sunglasses and mask.

The Qin Wei in the video was indifferent, and even through the screen one could feel her coldness.

The next few minutes of the video were also malicious edits. Clearly the interview that day was not sincerely trying to ask her anything. Those provocative questions were just meant to anger her.

"I haven't found the real footage of the interview that day yet, but this edited version is what is being spread around online."

Shen Kai put his phone away, paused the video, and continued explaining to her,

"It's obviously edited, but it precisely poked the nerve of onlookers, haters and people who dislike you, using this as evidence to attack you, which is too advantageous for them."

As Shen Kai spoke, he pulled up the hot search rankings. Currently there were few positive hot searches about Qin Wei.

"You don't need to know anything about Qin Wei. Just based on these hot searches, you can piece together an image of a 'diva, lacks social responsibility, loves hype, unprofessional or even unpatriotic' female celebrity."

If you read the comments, you could also enjoy a grand feast of online violence.

No one cared about truth or falsehoods. Watching drama was naturally more exciting the bigger it got.

"The prelude was all preparation for this video. Even without the slapping incident, there would be something else."

Shen Kai went on,

"You can sue them, you can remove hot searches or buy hot searches, you can even come out and clarify, but these will have little effect and the costs are too high for the tiny impact.

The other side came prepared without you noticing. They invested a lot before you realized what was happening. Now is just the harvest season for them, the situation has long been out of their control."

That is to say, in the eyes of the public who don't know the truth, Qin Wei was already not a good person.

"So what are you trying to tell me?"

Qin Wei knew all this. Her company was also working hard to deal with it. But being at the center of the storm, it seemed that nothing could help.

Even her subsequent variety shows and advertisements were temporarily cancelled.

"Here is an analysis of the fan demographics of you and me. The content is complex, just skim through it."

Shen Kai said,

"Unless there is bigger news now to shift most people's attention, otherwise this online violence targeting you will be hard to subside in a short time."

Qin Wei didn't say anything, but she knew Shen Kai was right.

"The video was released after I joined the crew. Those people obviously don't want you to recover. After filming wraps, they will still make trouble, and after the drama is scheduled, they will still do their utmost to smear it...

If the response to this work is mediocre after your comeback, Qin Wei, you may be finished."

Artists can't live on just a few fans. If her appeal to the public was ruined, the short-term impact might not be visible, but in the long run, it would become just a few people's self-entertainment.

Hearing this, Qin Wei rubbed her eyebrows and started to feel a headache coming on.

She could endure how much she was smeared, but this drama...

"So..."

Shen Kai stood up, took out a black velvet box from his pocket, went down on one knee in front of her,

"Marry me, let me handle these tricky issues.

I've thought it through. From proposal to marriage, I will keep it high-profile, let everyone know, make noise loud enough to drown out all your negative news, get the attention and focus of all people and media on our happiness. Meanwhile, the media will release some of your positive news from time to time, guiding public opinion in a good direction according to plan.

I will give you the grandest wedding, take the best care of you, let the whole world know Qin Wei is the wife of the Best Actor, you can still continue your career after marriage, and I will give my full support!

No one will pay attention to those trivial bits of smears anymore. Let those rats who hate you be jealous in the sewer!"

As Shen Kai spoke, he opened the velvet box. The LED light inside the box lit up, shining directly on the diamond ring.

The box contained an extremely high-profile diamond ring, flawless in color and clarity. Not only was the quality good, but the design was as luxurious as possible.

This diamond, at the very least, was five carats...

Damn, the dazzling sparkle!
