Chapter 631: Blame Me?

Due to Li Xing’er’s online harassment, the promotion of Sleepless had to start early.

Gu Weiwei and Song Yu, as well as the supporting actress Qiu Ling, were invited to attend an interview at the capital TV Station.

The host was both professional and humorous, and Song Yu and Qiu Ling cooperated well with the promotion, so the interview went very smoothly.

Song Yu and Qiu Ling left after the filming.

Gu Weiwei answered a call and went to the makeup room to remove her makeup and get changed.

She had just gotten changed, when she saw Li Xing’er standing outside of her makeup room.

“Weiwei, can we talk for a while?”

Gu Weiwei looked at her for a few seconds. “Sure, come in.”

They truly had nothing to talk about, but it was not a good thing for her to refuse Li Xing’er, after she had come to her at this critical moment.

In order to thank her for helping them with the promotional event, she forced herself to talk with her.

Li Xing’er threw a look at Xu and Lei Ning who were still in the makeup room.

“I mean, let’s talk alone.”

Sitting in front of the mirror, Gu Weiwei said, as she removed her makeup, “Xu, Lei Ning, wait for me outside.”

Xu and Lei Ning exchanged a look and left with the makeup artist to wait outside.

Gu Weiwei removed her eye shadow, checked het phone and put it back on the table.

“If you have something to say, just say it. I have something to do.”

“It’s nothing really, it’s just… we are sisters. You haven’t been home for so long, and Dad and Grandma mentioned you a few days ago.”

“Sisters?” Gu Weiwei laughed coldly and said, “Didn’t you say that you are Li Jiacheng’s daughter? What kind of sister are you to me?”

“Your surname may be Mu, but we both share the Li Family’s blood. I am older than you by a few months, am I not your sister?” Li Xing’er chuckled behind her back.

Gu Weiwei snorted. “So you are saying that the Li Family cheated Zhou Meiqin?”

“Why would I not dare to admit it? I am the real lady of the Li Family.” Li Xing’er said.

Gu Weiwei removed the rest of her makeup, stood up and faced the woman standing behind her.

“Have you forgotten that Longsheng is my grandfather? That Mu Longsheng’s Longsheng Enterprise and the house you live in is also the Mu Family’s old mansion? So you are the owner of the mansion?”

“Even if it belongs to the Mu Family, can you take it back now?” Li Xing’er sneered and said, “I thought that you would die with your mother in the car accident, but you survived.”

Gu Weiwei smiled. “Did you and your mother do it on purpose?”

“Not on purpose. We just chose not to ask the driver to drive a different car, instead of the one that had tampered brakes…” Li Xing’er sneered.

Gu Weiwei grabbed Li Xing’er’s collar and slapped her hard across the face.

“You are a cruel family! The Mu Family supported Zhou Meiqin and sent her to school, she studied abroad and we even gave her a job. But in the end, she stole my mother’s husband, my mother’s family business and even tried to kill my mother and I…”

Li Xing’er’s lips started to bleed. She tried to push her away but was slapped several times.

Seeing the scene, the staff from the TV Station rushed into the room and pulled them away. Li Xing’er’s face was already swollen and her mouth was full of blood.

“Mu Weiwei, you are too much! You should talk nicely with her instead of hitting her so hard!” Li Xing’er’s agent rushed in and furiously said, as she helped her up.

Gu Weiwei wiped her hands with a napkin as if she had dirtied them.

“She asked for it herself, am I to blame?”

Chapter 632: Mu Weiwei Slaps Li Xing’er

The staff member also looked at her in astonishment.

“Miss. Mu, you couldn’t have hit her, right?”

Before the program, she had been quite friendly, but now she had hit someone.

Sure enough, artists tended to behave differently in front of their fans and behind their backs.

Li Xing’er’s agent furiously looked at her.

“Mu Weiwei, just wait for the lawyer’s letter.”

Having said the words, she helped Li Xing’er to the hospital with the staff.

Jolin, who had been talking with the top managers of the TV Station, rushed over when he received Xu’s text.

Along the way, he saw staff members of the TV Station gossiping outside the makeup room.

“Did you hit Li Xing’er?” Jolin asked breathlessly.

“Yes.” Gu Weiwei nodded.

Seeing the people pointing at them, Jolin said.

“Alright, let’s go, let’s talk in the car.”

She did hit her, and she also did it at the TV station.

She had never acted impulsively and violently before, so why did she act like that today?

They walked out of the makeup room and were quickly surrounded by the TV Station staff.

Jolin smiled apologetically. “Sorry for the trouble, sorry.”

However, he went crazy the moment they returned to the car, ignoring the fact that she was the future boss lady.

“What on earth are you doing? If you want to hit someone, at least find a place where no one can see you. Are you crazy? You hit someone in front of so many people!”

Gu Weiwei squinted at him indifferently. “It’s already happened, what is the point of being so angry?”

“Is it serious?” Jolin asked.

Without saying a word, Gu Weiwei turned to Xu.

Xu nervously replied, “Li Xing’er’s face is swollen and she is spitting out blood.”

Jolin felt his forehead and his hands trembled as he pointed at Gu Weiwei.

“You… you…!”

Not only did she hit her, but she also hit her so hard.

After a long while, he took a few deep breaths and said to Xu, “Go back to the company and keep an eye out for Li Xing’er’s company.”

Xu nodded and took a taxi back to the company.

Jolin sent Xu away and said to Gu Weiwei, “We can’t solve this problem. Call Boss and ask him to help you.”

Beating someone up was a very serious Matt and they would not be able to suppress it.

Right now, only the Boss would be able to keep the matter under control.

If they did not stop the news before it was released, all the headlines would be about Mu Weiwei slapping Li Xing’er.

“It is just a small matter, yet he has to be the one to deal with it? What is the use of you being his agent?” Gu Weiwei said as she took out her phone and played a recording for him.

Hearing the conversation, Jolin blinked in astonishment. “She visited you to make you hurt her on purpose?”

In the recording, Li Xing’er verbally provoked her and mentioned the car accident that killed her mother.

The purpose was to provoke her into fighting. When the TV Station staff did not hear what was going on and saw that Li Xing’er was injured, they would obviously stand on “victim’s” side to defend her.

“She literally begged me to hit her, so if I don’t do anything, I would have been letting her down!” Gu Weiwei said and sent him the recording.

Jolin excitedly said, as he spun the phone in his hand, “Ha, they want to play with public opinion, right? Let’s also have fun with them.”

Li Xing’er visited her on purpose so that she would be injured.

Mu Weiwei had then ruined her reputation because of the fight, so now she could manipulate the public opinion as a weapon to attack her.

If she had not been careful and set up the recording in advance, she would have been unable to clear her name.

Chapter 633: Mu Weiwei Out of Entertainment

Gu Weiwei sent the recording to him, glanced at Lei Ning and said, “Can you ask your brother to find someone called Li Yongmin? He used to talk with Zhou Meiqin.”

Lei Ning nodded. “I will call him later.”

“Thanks, send it to Jolin when you find her.” Gu Weiwei said.

She was going to attend the premiere of the film festival abroad tomorrow, so she had no time to deal with it.

But with Jolin’s experience as a manager, he could definitely help her deal with this matter.

Jolin thought for a while and said, “Then do you want to take back the Mu Family’s assets?”

She had told him about the Mu Family when they had first signed the contract.

She had been so busy with work and then had fallen so in love with Boss, she might have forgotten about the family fortune.

But now they were here. Although the Mu Family’s assets were nothing compared to the Fu Family’s, she had to get them back.

“Of course.” Gu Weiwei looked cold.

Because of work and the Gu Family, she did not have much time or energy to pay attention to the Li Family and the Zhou Family.

Originally, Li Xing’er did not want to mess with her, but now she did.

If she had come to cause trouble, then she should not blame her for being ruthless.

Jolin thought for a while and said, “Then we may need a lawyer who is an expert in property disputes.”

Gu Weiwei thought for a while and said,b”I will ask Fu Hanzheng about it, to see if he can arrange someone.”

Lawyers of Fu’s Enterprise were the best at dealing with lawsuits of property disputes, but she was not sure if they would be able to find anyone.

“Okay, leave the rest to me, just go to the film festival tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Gu Weiwei nodded.

Jolin drove her back to Landscape Villa and went back to the company to talk with the PR team.

When Jolin returned to the company, the news of Mu Weiwei slapping Li Xing’er and causing her to be hospitalized had already been revealed online.

Some of the staff at the TV Station reposted Li Xing’er’s Weibo and asked Mu Weiwei to apologize.

The PR team asked Jolin.

“Should we apologize? If this continues, it will greatly affect us.”

It would be very difficult to deal with the news of an artist hitting someone.

Especially on the eve of their movie premiere.

Jolin logged into Mu Weiwei’s Weibo and made a post.

[Why did you hit her? Because she deserves it!]

The public relations team looked at Jolin’s post and asked in confusion, “Manager Qiao, can you stop adding fuel to the fire?”

What was going on, when the girl suddenly became violent and hit someone, as the agent, he did not do damage control but instead went to cause trouble!

They really wanted to hit him right now…

Without changing his expression, Jolin not only ignored their advice but also started to argue with Li Xing’er’s fans on Weibo.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, there were already more than ten thousand comments.

Mu Weiwei’s fans were confused, but they still defended their idol.

[Trust Weiwei.]

[I am also such a gentle person, there must be a reason why she got angry.]

[Mom told me that we must like pretty people for no reason.]

…

Although there were some fans who defended her, most of them were angry fans of Li Xing’er.

[Does it make sense to hit someone?]

[You hit her so badly and you still think you are in the right?]

[You deserve a beating, why don’t you come out and let us beat you up?]

[Boycott Mu Weiwei!]

[Mu Weiwei, get out of the entertainment industry!]

Chapter 634: Reason

As Jolin was arguing with Li Xing’er’s fans on her Weibo, Shiyi Culture’s phones rang one after another, all of which were calls from the media asking about the reason behind the attack.

After the PR team finally got rid of the pestering callers they sighed, when they saw Jolin, who was still arguing with someone on Weibo.

“Manager Qiao, what should we do now?”

What kind of artist could so confidently beat someone up?

Especially when something like this happened on the eve of the movie, where she was debuting as the director and lead actress, wasn’t that just ruining her own future?

“Just call them back and tell them that, that woman should be hit.” Jolin said.

“If this goes on, Mu Weiwei will be condemned and despised by everyone.” Someone reminded her seriously.

This agent did not know how to do public relations, so that the effect was minimized, after his own artist got into trouble.

Was he trying to make a big deal out of this? Was this something an agent should do?

“If you don’t want to talk to them, just disconnect the phone lines and don’t answer any media calls.” Jolin said straightforwardly.

“Agent Qiao…”

Everyone looked at the hopeless agent and did not know what to say.

The girl was crazy and so was the agent!

The team did not know what to do, when Fu Shiyi came in after working.

He had heard about the fight on the way, so he asked, when he saw Jolin, “Did she really hit her?”

Jolin said, “Yes.”

Hearing the words, Fu Shiyi asked, “Mu Weiwei didn’t suffer?”

They could not believe their ears.

Li Xing’er was in the hospital and yet he was still concerned about Mu Weiwei?

Jolin said, “No way, we are beating him up unilaterally.”

Fu Shiyi took the water from his assistant and took a sip, lecturing Jolin.

“She doesn’t need to do anything, when it comes to beating people up. Where are you, the agent?”

“…”

Everyone from the PR team burst into tears. Oh no, Third Master was going crazy too.

Their artist had hit someone and even sent her to the hospital.

Why were they all acting so self-righteously, as if they were being reasonable.

Then Song Yu received the news and called to ask about the situation.

Jolin answered the call and said with a smile, “It is okay, it is just a normal PR promotion, it will not affect the release of the movie.”

“Okay, okay, just go to the film festival.”

…

He had just ended the call with Song Yu when Qiu Ling called him too.

Jolin had to explain to him again that they should not worry, because the incident would not affect the movie.

The staff members of the public relations team were almost in tears. This was not a normal public relations promotion!

There were already many boycotting online.

If they did not do anything, it would be too late and they would not be able to do any PR.

But their boss and Mu Weiwei’s agent were arguing with each other on Weibo as if they were worried that the matter would not be blown up enough.

Fu Shiyi’s agent noticed that Fu Shiyi had posted something on Weibo.

[So be it! Do you want to pick a date to fight?]

[You are asking for a beating, if I don’t hit you, who will?]

…

“Oh my God, can you not get involved?”

Fu Shiyi’s agent realized what was going on and snatched the phone away.

Did they all take the wrong medicine today?

Chapter 635: So Vicious

At Ren Ai Hospital.

Li Xing’er’s face was very swollen and the handprints could be seen clearly on both sides of her face. She was weakly lying in bed.

Zhou Meiqin, Li Jiacheng and Wei Ziting rushed to the hospital as soon as they received the call.

Zhou Meiqin was furious, when she saw that her daughter was injured.

“She is too cruel.”

Seeing her injured face, Wei Ziting was also very annoyed.

“Mu Weiwei is so cruel!”

“I just wanted to ask her if she had any news about Ziqi… she then started the fight…”

Li Xing’er started to sob, truly looking like a victim who had been beaten up.

“She did not apologize to you?” Wei Ziting asked.

Li Xing’er’s agent said, “Ha! An apology? She said on Weibo that our Xing’er deserves to be hit.”

Wei Ziting was now livid.

“Damn you, Mu Weiwei, she is so self-righteous after hitting someone.”

Zhou Meiqin gritted her teeth and said, “She must give us an explanation for this matter, otherwise she will have to pay back whatever she has done to Xing’er.”

Since the terrible photos of her were still in My Weiwei’s hands, she had been holding herself back from dealing with her.

But in the end, she was so cruel to Xing’er.

Hearing their words, Li Xing’er’s agent stepped forward and said, “We are trying to contact the lawyer because she refuses to apologize, so we have to do it legally.”

She had been worried that Shiyi Culture would handle the public relations well and cause them trouble.

But Mu Weiwei had made such a provocative post on Weibo and started to fight with Xing’er’s fans in the comments section.

That was exactly what they wanted.

The more she argued with the fans, the more the public would side with them.

Now, as long as she could get some VIP star accounts on Weibo to side with them, Mu Weiwei would become so ruined that she would never be able to rise again.

By that time, no matter how good her movie was, the audience would be unconvinced.

Li Jiacheng snorted furiously.

“She is so popular after two movies, but she doesn’t know her own capabilities?”

Although she was also his daughter, she had been surnamed Mu since she was born and she had been raised by Mu Longsheng’s side. She had never regarded him as her father.

So he had long forgotten about this daughter.

“Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, I have something to deal with at the studio, please take care of Xing’er.” Li Xing’er’s agent said.

“Okay, go ahead.” Zhou Meiqin said.

Li Xing’er’s agent walked out of the ward and contacted the lawyer they had found.

“Lawyer Chen, I believe you have heard about our situation. Now we can only solve it through legal means… Yes, there were many staff members at the TV station who could testify for us.”

…

After making the call to the lawyer, she returned to the car and contacted the public relations team, as she rushed to the company.

“You can start to work now. The situation is beneficial for us, so we can try to stop Mu Weiwei and her movie… It would be best if their movie could not be released, so she would have no place in this industry.”

…

For artists, a scandal was the worst thing.

S*x scandals, drug scandals and such violent scandals would seriously affect the image of the artist.

Mu Weiwei was not involved with drugs, and there was nothing suspicious about her relationship with a man, so she had to start with the violent scandal.

Mu Weiwei did not know about using public relations when she was in trouble and was still arguing with the netizens online.

It was obvious that she had been provoked.

But the more she made a fuss, the better it was for them.

Chapter 636: The Mu Family’s Property

On the internet, the rumour about Mu Weiwei hitting someone was spreading like wildfire.

Landscape Villa, however, was quiet.

Gu Weiwei did not want to be disturbed, so she switched off her phone and packed up her luggage for the film festival abroad.

The moment she finished packing, Fu Hanzheng came home from work.

On the way home, he had already heard about her situation.

The moment he entered, he sized her up from head to toe to make sure that she was not injured.

“Xu Qian said that you are in big trouble this time?”

“Good, everything is going according to plan.” Gu Weiwei said with a smile.

Seeing her confident look, Fu Hanzheng knew that she no longer needed his help.

“Oh yes, can you get me a lawyer who is good at handling property disputes?” Gu Weiwei thought of this important matter and asked him.

Shiyi Culture had its own lawyers, but most of them dealt with reputation disputes.

Fu Hanzheng did not ask her what she wanted a lawyer for, but instantly agreed instead.

“I will ask Xu Qian to arrange everything for you tomorrow.”

“I want to take all of the Mu Family’s properties back, not one piece less.” Gu Weiwei said seriously.

Seeing the luggage she was packing, Fu Hanzheng remembered that she was leaving tomorrow.

So he took her into his arms.

“Okay, I will get it back for you.”

“Aren’t you going to ask me why I hit her?” Gu Weiwei blinked and asked.

“I’m glad that you have vented your anger.” Fu Hanzheng said as he massaged her hands. “Let Lei Ning deal with people next time, it is risky doing it alone.”

If the other party fought back, she might have been injured too.

“I am afraid that you have forgotten how I single-handedly took on dozens of people.” Gu Weiwei said proudly.

Fu Hanzheng said, “Did you forget about the pain because the scar on your hand is gone?”

“Okay, okay, okay, I will not do anything in the future. I’ll let Lei Ning do whatever she wants.” Gu Weiwei compromised according to his plan.

Satisfied, Fu Hanzheng did not pursue the matter further.

“What time is the flight tomorrow?”

Gu Weiwei sighed at the thought of the morning flight tomorrow. “Five in the morning.”

Fu Hanzheng had dinner with her and asked her to rest early.

At three in the morning, he drove her to the airport to meet Lei Ning and Xu.

When she arrived at the airport, Song Yu and Qiu Ling were already there.

Fu Shiyi could not go with them because he had other work to do, and Jolin could not go with them because he had to deal with her problem.

Song Yu and Qiu Ling greeted her when they saw her, but they did not ask her what was going on with Li Xing’er… Although everyone was cursing her online.

“Don’t worry about what is happening online, just focus on the promotion of the movie. It will be solved before the premiere.”

Although they did not ask, she still explained in case they started overthinking.

“We believe that you would not do something like that for no reason.” Song Yu said.

From the filming of the Eyes of the Eagle to the collaboration of Sleepless, he understood that she was not an impulsive person.

So if she could still talk to them like this, after what had happened, she must have found a solution.

Although he himself could not think of a way to calm down the crisis.

“Thanks.” Gu Weiwei smiled.

At this moment, the internet must have been abuzz.

That should be exactly what Li Xing’er wanted to see the most, but she would be the one who decided what would happen in the end.

Chapter 637: Online

When Gu Weiwei and Song Yu went to the film festival abroad for the premiere, [Mu Weiwei slapped Li Xing’er] had become the top search on Weibo and the headline of all major websites.

Some pictures of Li Xing’er at the hospital were posted online, making Li Xing’er’s fans even more furious.

Li Xing’er stayed at the hospital overnight and went back to the promotional event for “I Met You in My Youth” the following day but she wore a mask.

However, the fans could still see the wounds on her face through the gaps at the edges of the mask, and they all felt great turmoil and anger at her injuries.

“Xing’er, we are here for you.”

“Xing’er, we will fight with you until the end.”

…

When Li Xing’er was beaten up, her fans started to call out to her, whilst gaining sympathy from many passers-by.

However, when Li Xing’er was asked about her conflict with Mu Weiwei, she did not slander her but said with a guilty tone, “Maybe I said something wrong and offended Miss. Mu.”

Her words made the fans’ hearts ache even more.

She had also gained popularity and fame through the incident, so that “I Met You in My Youth” received even more attention.

After the promotional event, Li Xing’er’s agent asked her in the car, “Xing’er, are you sure there was no one else in the makeup room?”

“Mu Weiwei and I were the only ones inside, and everyone else was outside. They couldn’t hear what we were saying.” Li Xing’er said.

Although she had been slapped a few times, she had gained more fame because of it and she was also able to bring Mu Weiwei down. It was worth it.

“It is strange that Mu Weiwei and Shiyi Culture did not respond.” The agent said anxiously.

Under normal circumstances, when something like this happened, they should do some PR.

But Mu Weiwei, her agent and Fu Shiyi were all arguing on Weibo.

It was as if she did not care about the consequences of this matter.

“It is useless no matter what they do.” Li Xing’er snorted.

Her agent was a bit worried, but when she thought about the current situation, she realized that there was nothing they could do.

“I heard that some cinemas have removed the screening schedule for Sleepless and replaced it with ‘I Met You in My Youth’.”

Li Xing’er smiled in satisfaction. “We are already at this stage, how can we still give her the screening schedule? This is just the beginning, there are still many who will remove it.”

She could not help but laugh when she thought of what had happened.

Mu Weiwei had become an A-lister just because she starred in the Eyes of the Eagle, and now she was going to become an A-lister.

“She went abroad to attend the film festival and held a global premiere abroad. We don’t even know if the movie will be aired in the country.” Li Xing’er’s agent snorted.

At the beginning, she had been worried that it would be too risky. If Fu Shiyi asked the Fu Family to help her, they would be in trouble.

But Fu Shiyi not only refused to help, but also kept causing trouble.

The more he argued for Mu Weiwei, the more people hated Mu Weiwei. So many of their fans had been disbanded.

They were just feeling happy about the victory when the agent received a call from the studio.

After hanging up the phone, she said to Li Xing’er.

“Mu Weiwei said on Weibo that she will explain it to everyone on the livestream next Monday.”

Chapter 638: Ambition and Trick

Li Xing’er snorted.

“Can she even explain it clearly next Monday?”

It was too late for her to explain to the public.

Even if she was the one who had said those words to agitate Mu Weiwei, where was the evidence?

There was no one there at that time and no one knew what they talked about. They only saw Mu Weiwei making a move and beating her up.

Also, after the incident, she did not repent or apologize, and even started to spout nonsense online.

Her agent thought for a while and asked, “Are you sure that she did not record anything?”

It seemed that Mu Weiwei was bullying them but only they knew that they had provoked Mu Weiwei, so that she would end up being slandered by the public.

Li Xing’er thought for a while and realized that Mu Weiwei did not even touch her phone, when they were in the middle of the conflict, so how could there be a recording?

“It is impossible for her to have one. If she did, she would have released it a long time ago.”

However, at this very moment, she had been boycotted by the entire internet and all the cinemas in the country had started to cancel the screening of Sleepless.

If she had a way to prove her innocence, she would have stepped forward a long time ago.

Li Xing’er’s agent thought for a while and thought that what she had said made sense.

If the other party really had the evidence to prove her innocence, she would not have been scolded so badly by the netizens. She would not have waited to come out to explain herself, only when the movie was cancelled.

“It seems that they want to change the release date before the premiere.”

When the movie was on the cusp of the news, the box office of Sleepless would be terrible.

“No matter what they say, we must force Mu Weiwei out of the entertainment industry.”

She was also her father’s daughter, but Mu Weiwei was the only one who had been treated like a princess.

Yet she grew up being unable to call him father!

And on top of that, even when everyone from the Mu Family had died and Mu Weiwei was kicked out, her career ended up going well!

Mu Weiwei had entered the entertainment industry and she was still above her. She was feeling extremely frustrated.

This time, she was going to make sure that Mu Weiwei would never be able to survive in the industry.

Li Xing’er’s agent smiled meaningfully and said, “Now the public is on our side, and if you continue to attend the promotional event, I think that even without our guidance, the fans and the public will know how to deal with Mu Weiwei.”

Compared to Mu Weiwei, who was so arrogant on Weibo, Li Xing’er did not slander the other party when she was injured, but still participated in the promotional event with a strong heart. She was definitely going to gain the sympathy of the public and fans.

“You don’t have to tell me that.” Li Xing’er snorted.

The agent nodded in satisfaction. “You just need to attend the promotional event and leave the rest to me and the team.”

“Also, release all the negative news you have prepared.” Li Xing’er said.

When Mu Weiwei became the object of public criticism, even if the rumors were false, people would still believe it.

She had been preparing for this moment for too long.

“Don’t worry, everything has been arranged. When she responds to the public, our team will start to operate.” The agent answered confidently.

Li Xing’er was not an outstanding girl in the industry, but she was willing to do whatever it took to climb up the social ladder.

In this industry, it was very difficult to be promoted without having some ambition and unsavoury methods.

Chapter 639: Competition with Ling Yan

It was a beautiful scene in the small city of Lugano in Switzerland.

Due to the organizer of the Lugano Film Festival, the small city was very lively.

Although the slapping of Li Xing’er was a hot topic in the country, Gu Weiwei and her team were completely unaffected.

She took a short break and confirmed the preparations for the premiere.

After everything was arranged, she called Jolin to ask about the situation in the country.

“What is the situation now?”

Jolin was sitting inside the company, eating fruits, as he said to her, “The entire internet is boycotting you! Get out of the entertainment industry! Cancel all the releases at the cinemas!”

Gu Weiwei was not surprised. “How many have been cancelled?”

Jolin said, as he chewed the apple, “Apart from the cinemas under Fu’s Enterprise, all the other cinemas across the country have cancelled our screening and have replaced it with ‘I Met You in My Youth’.”

“Have you found Li Yongmin?” Gu Weiwei asked.

“Yes, I have talked with him, just watch.” Jolin said excitedly.

Li Xing’er and the others thought that they had already won, but what they were doing was a huge slap to their face.

Gu Weiwei smiled in satisfaction. As long as she could find this Li Yongmin and add the recording to the list.

Later on, it would be time for them to turn the tables.

Back then, Zhou Meiqin pretended to be with Li Yongmin in order to conceal the truth. She also claimed that Li Xing’er and Li Xiangxiang were his children.

But Li Yongmin had accepted their money to cover up her affair with Li Jiacheng.

Li Yongmin knew about the affair between Zhou Meiqin and Li Jiacheng and who Li Xing’er was.

Li Xing’er had thought that by provoking her to beat her up, she would be able to drive her out of the entertainment industry.

But she would not fall for such a terrible trick.

She had spent so much effort playing along with her because it would help to promote their movie and stimulate the box office.

“Now that you have found him, it is up to you to showcase your skills.”

“Don’t worry, I will show them exactly who will be leaving the entertainment industry.” Jolin snorted.

His girl had never disappointed anyone before.

Hearing Jolin’s words, Gu Weiwei felt relieved.

“Then you can do whatever you want, I am hanging up now.”

Two hours later, it was the global premiere of Sleepless, and she and several other actors were getting ready.

Lei Ning came in from outside, bent down and whispered to her, “Ling Yan just checked into this hotel, she is here for the film festival too.”

Gu Weiwei was not surprised at all. “Their movie is going to premiere here too?”

Their movie was released at the same time as Ling Yan’s Dream of a Long Life 2, and this was the latest film festival, so it was inevitable that they would compete for the award of the Lugano Film Festival.

Lei Ning nodded. “Yes, today too.”

Gu Weiwei thought for a while and asked, “Did she come alone?”

Honestly speaking, she did not want to run into Gu Siting again.

But if he came with Ling Yan, they would have to meet at the film festival.

“No, Ling Yan came with the film crew.” Lei Ning said.

Now that the Gu’s Enterprise was being damaged and Boss was trying to take over the market of the Gu’s Enterprise, Gu Siting would not have time to attend the film festival with Ling Yan.

Gu Weiwei said, “Got it.”

It was released at the same time and premiered on the same day.

Today would be the start of the competition between her and Ling Yan.

Chapter 640: Premiere on the Same Day as Ling Yan

Most A-rated film festivals required that the movies were not released beforehand.

Therefore, most movies would hold a premiere at the film festival and then hold a domestic premiere when they returned home.

Lugano was not a large city, so when the premiere was held at the film festival, the venues always ended up being crowded.

However the movies were released in different cinemas.

The premiere of Sleepless was in two cinemas that were very close by to the cinemas where Dream of a Long Life 2 was premiering.

Song Yu was the Movie King of the Lugano Film Festival two years ago, and Gu Weiwei’s Eyes of the Eagle had won many A level Film Festival awards; Fu Shiyi was also a very popular star.

Therefore, the premiere was quite popular.

However, compared to Dream of a Long Life 2, which was premiering on the same day as them, Sleepless was much quieter.

Before the premiere started, many fans and media companies were already waiting outside for Dream of a Long Life 2.

Gu Weiwei found that she ran into Ling Yan in the lobby of the hotel she was staying in.

“Miss. Mu, I heard that your new movie is premiering today too?” Ling Yan greeted her with a smile.

“Yes, I also heard that Dream of a Long Life 2 is being shown today.” Gu Weiwei replied politely because of the media.

Ling Yan stretched out her hand and said with a smile, “Good luck with your Sleepless.”

Just because she acted well did not mean that she would be a good director.

She was really overestimating herself, especially because she was releasing her movie at the same time as hers.

Gu Weiwei shook her hand in front of the media.

“I also hope that Dream of a Long Life 2 will be even more brilliant than Dream of a Long Life”

The two of them left the hotel, got into their separate cars and rushed to the premiere of their respective movies.

Gu Weiwei and her team drove past the site of the press conference of Dream of a Long Life 2, where many of Ling Yan’s fans and journalists were gathered.

Qiu Ling was very jealous, when she saw them from afar.

When they arrived at the press conference of Sleepless and saw that only a small number of fans, media and film critics were present, they worriedly sighed.

The host was still doing the introduction, so she could not help but ask, “Director, we are going to release the movie at the same time as Dream of a Long Life 2, and we will premiere on the same day, is that really okay?”

It was very crowded on Ling Yan’s side, so it was very quiet over here.

And Mu Weiwei had also slapped Li Xing’er, which hadn’t helped either.

Although she had said that she believed Mu Weiwei would be able to deal with the problem well, she had not been doing anything with her agent, so she was a bit worried.

“Good.” Gu Weiwei chuckled.

“But our country…”

Qiu Ling wanted to say something but stopped herself. The movie was going to be out soon and all the cinemas had canceled their scheduled showing.

“I said that it will be solved, so it will be. Don’t worry.” Gu Weiwei said as she walked towards the stage of the press conference where the humorous host was standing.

She, Song Yu and Fu Shiyi were quite famous.

But it was indeed a bit dangerous for Sleepless to be released at the same time as Dream of a Long Life 2.

Many people had feelings for Dream of a Long Life and Ling Yan was the legendary Movie Queen, so Dream of a Long Life 2 received a lot of attention from the moment it started filming.

Also, many people would definitely watch the movie at the cinema.

Although Ling Yan was still the lead actress of Dream of a Long Life 2 and she even hired a famous director, she was sure that it would not be able to surpass the first film.

Ling Yan had never understood the movie and the famous director she hired did not understand the real Dream of a Long Life either.

Therefore, no matter how they filmed the movie, it would not have the original atmosphere.
