Yuan Fei’s eyes were fixed on the person in the video. Song Qianming seemed to have been reborn. He never knew that his former teammate was so talkative. He didn’t even show fear in front of the seniors who were once famous.
This was ‘A Happy Life’, the biggest variety show in Little Raccoon Streaming, and they had actually invited Song Qianming!
That’s right, ‘Frost Falls’, which Song Qianming was starring in, was currently a hot topic in Little Raccoon Streaming. He was now one of the most popular male actors! It was no wonder that these seniors were all flattering him.
It was impossible to say that he wasn’t jealous and disappointed. After all, Song Qianming was once his teammate, and he was even kicked out of the group because of his scandal. Now, Song Qianming had become famous so quickly after leaving, but no one had ever paid attention to his group. They had to beg to even appear on a variety show with not much views.
Speaking of which, he had quite a number of fans. However, anyone with a discerning eye could see how much of it was fake. It was not like Song Qianming, who could attract a wave of cheers just by showing his face.
Why was Song Qianming so lucky? He was clearly a nameless nobody with a dark past, so how did he manage to get the male lead role after going solo?
It was inevitable for Yuan Fei to overthink it. After all, Song Qianming had previously endorsed an advertisement for Shen’s Food. Now that the female lead of this drama was Shen Bao’er, could it be that all of Song Qianming’s resources were given by Shen Bao’er? As for the reason why a rich young lady would give resources to a male stranger?
On one hand, Yuan Fei despised Song Qianming for using his body to get to where he was, but on the other hand, he was afraid that Shen Bao’er would be deceived. His brows were tightly furrowed.
“Song Qianming has a daughter? And the daughter was born when he was unmarried?” Xiao Ting was stunned for a while after reading the news. She couldn’t believe it. After all, Song Qianming was only 25 years old this year. How could he have a four-year-old daughter? According to this calculation, he would have gotten another woman pregnant by 21 at the latest?
“It’s really a world-shaking event!” Her roommate was also speechless. “To think that I liked him so much. He’s actually a scumbag.”
Xiao Ting hesitated, “We can’t come to a conclusion so early, can we? After all, it’s just someone else’s information.”
“If it’s just someone slandering him, would they be so detailed? Moreover, it was the child’s mother who had asked the media to contact him, and he was the one who had personally picked up the child. This couldn’t be wrong, right? Scumbag, getting someone pregnant and not taking responsibility.”
Xiao Ting had nothing to argue with. Even though everything on the internet was true, she still didn’t want to believe that Song Qianming was a scumbag. Maybe there was a hidden story?
At the same time, the internet was filled with comments telling Song Qqianming to get out of the entertainment industry. In comparision, the previous commotion was like a splash hitting the waves. After all, the last time people said that, he wasn’t very famous. Now, the drama he was starring in, ‘Frost Falls’, was a big hit.
In this industry, there were only so many resources. If one person became popular, they would naturally take away a portion of the resources. This meant that others would have less resources to receive. Song Qianming was a person without a company or backing. Wasn’t this a good opportunity to bully him?
“Mr. Song, based on your current situation, this is the best contract that our company can offer you. This is also under the condition that we specially approved your application. If you sign it, I guarantee that the public relations team will immediately help you solve this problem.”
The man in front of him looked at Song Qianming with a look of pity, as if he was sure that Song Qianming would have no choice but to accept his offer. Song Qianming was furious.
The manager had contacted him a week ago. At that time, before his scandal was exposed, although the man’s attitude was arrogant, his words were still polite, and the contract he offered was also reasonable.
Now that the news about him had come out, the man had become more and more arrogant. His new contract was even worse than an ordinary newcomer’s, and he still acted as if it would be accepted. It was really disgusting.
“I’m sorry, I may not be in line with your company’s philosophy,” Song Qianming rejected coldly.
The man’s expression changed immediately. “Don’t be ungrateful. Go out and ask around. Who else would want you other than Wenha entertainment? If you don’t sign it today, you won’t have the chance to do so tomorrow.”
“It’s none of your business whether anybody else will sign me. You’d better watch your mouth.” Song Qianming stared at him coldly. He sat there as if he was a successful man with a net worth of hundreds of millions, not a single father with a lot of scandals.
“You…” The manager couldn’t take it anymore. He kept the contract and sneered, “Let’s see how far you can go. I’ll wait for the day you come to me on your knees.”
“You’re not the first person to say this to me. The first one has already regretted it.”
“You’re so full of yourself, Song Qianming. Do you think you’ll be able to make a comeback when you go against Wenha Entertainment? ”
“Then let’s wait and see.”
“Interesting.” A woman who had just come out of the bathroom witnessed this scene, and she searched up Song Qianming’s name on the internet.
Then, she said to the assistant beside her, “Didn’t Sister Hong terminate the contract with the person she’s holding? Go and ask her if she’s interested in this person.”
“Yes, boss, but can I ask you why you like this man so much? I know him, it’s not easy to clean up his black record now.”
The woman smiled and said, “Don’t you think he’s very handsome? He’s got a good temperament too. He’s so good-looking and has a good temperament. Now, he’s also a hot topic. If we can clear this black material, he’ll definitely help our company make a lot of money in the future. We can take advantage of his current state and take advantage of this. Oh, right, let Sister Hong talk to him politely. Don’t be rude.”
“After what happened with Liu Shi, I’m afraid that Sister Hong is no longer willing to lead popular artistes.”
“This Song Qianming isn’t Liu Shi. If we let Sister Hong get in touch with him, she might change her mind. Besides, even if we offer him our conditions, he might not come. Don’t worry about that for now.”
The assistant smiled shyly and didn’t say anything else.
After Song Qianming angered Wenha’s manager, he frowned and looked at his phone. Although he had a clear conscience, it was not good for things to continue like this.
On the other side, Director He and the person in charge of Little Raccoon Streaming also sent him messages to urge him to deal with this matter, so that the show wouldn’t be boycotted because of him.
“Xiao Song, after knowing you for so long, I know your character. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have hired you in the first place. It’s better for you to clarify this matter as soon as possible. If you’re too late, the netizens won’t believe you. They might even think that you’re just creating hype. If there’s a need, I can help you put in a few words on Weibo.”
Song Qianming replied, “Director He, thank you. This matter has nothing to do with you, so I don’t wish to drag you into this. I will handle it as soon as possible.”
After he replied, he began to think of how to phrase his words. He would definitely admit it. Youhuan was his daughter, and he would never deny it.
