Chapter 364: Chapter 364_1 Chapter 364: Chapter 364_1 Think about it. Cai Jiali used to say with such delight during her interviews that she was about to star in Qin Hao’s blockbuster, “Who Rules the World”. She did so to grab the media’s attention, given that she had been in a popularity slump recently. Initially, she thought that having Zhao Baoguo would ensure a smooth entry into the movie’s casting crew.
But who would’ve thought that Qiao Xiaren would show up halfway, snatch the role of Geisha Liunian, and leave her unprepared for the proceeding scenes, leading Qin Hao to ruthlessly kick her out.
She had bragged to the media before and now had to cover up her lies. Blaming all of this on Qiao Xiaren seemed the easiest, sweeping her into the controversy at the same time.
Cai Jiali’s comments undoubtedly set off an uproar of gossip. The hostess, Ye Zi, smelled gossip in it all.
“Miss Cai, are there any hidden meanings behind what you just said? Earlier you said you’d be in Director Qin’s film, but it turns out Qiao Xiaren is in it, and you’re out. Are there any secrets here? Did Miss Qiao undercut you halfway, prompting the director to replace you directly? We’re hoping Miss Cai could tell us, the audience, the reality.”
Cai Jiali calmly laughed, her dramatically altered face appearing even more enchanting, “It’s challenging to hold onto your innocence in this circle. Some people take advantage of their good looks to throw themselves at men and attach themselves to the powerful, doing all kinds of degrading and dirty things. Unspoken rules are undoubtedly involved. I’ve always been a cynic, disgusted at how filthy some women can be! You must stick to your initial innocence upon entering this entertainment field. No matter the temptation, I would never sell my body. I’ve been honest all these years, yet the actions of some people disgust me!”
In truth, Cai Jiali complained a lot about Qiao Xiaren to Zhao Baoguo in private, firmly insisting that Qiao Xiaren must’ve had plastic surgery and been involved in these unspoken rules. How else could one rise to fame so quickly?
That being said, Cai Jiali was paranoid, judging and questioning others after having achieved nothing from years in the entertainment industry, priding herself on being righteous and attributing her lack of success to her honesty.
Hostess Ye Zi was even more excited, eagerly handed over the microphone to Cai Jiali, “Since we’re talking about these unspoken rules, does Miss Cai perhaps have some even bigger news to share? Have you personally seen anything related to these unspoken rules, Miss Cai?”
Cai Jiali didn’t name anyone, instead beating around the bush cleverly, “Of course, I’ve seen those who climbed up the ranks by selling their bodies in the entertainment circle just a few days ago. This person’s name is three words long, and we auditioned together.”
Three words, auditioned together, it could only be the movie “Who Rules the World”. Aside from Qiao Xiaren, there was basically no one else.
Cai Jiali made these insinuations to shift the public’s attention to Qiao Xiaren. Even if she never did those things, as long as Cai Jiali insisted she did, all the dirt would be splashed on Qiao Xiaren.
Ye Zi had the intuition that the ratings for this episode would explode. After all, it pointed at the currently popular actress Qiao Xiaren, a hotly tipped nominee for the best actress award! Whether it was true or false, countless casual internet users and fans were bound to tune in.
