Meng Nianchu was also having a tough time. Due to the scandal, the endorsement deal she had negotiated within these seven days was suddenly cancelled. She was informed that the cooperation had to be suspended temporarily due to "force majeure".
The scolding on the internet against Meng Nianchu showed no sign of abating. If she hadn't listened to Mu Junze and stayed at home during this period, she would probably be grabbed and severely beaten by those people as soon as she stepped out on the street.
Yesterday, Mu Junze sent someone to investigate the mastermind behind this incident. After much investigation, they only found those marketing accounts. Moreover, Meng Nianchu didn't have any solid evidence to prove that she had no relationship with Zhang Fan.
Even if she wanted to sue those marketing accounts, she would feel rather powerless. I'm afraid that even if she did sue, it would only show that the marketing accounts had a tendency of online violence, and there wouldn't be much punishment.
Since this method didn't work, Mu Junze couldn't stand those netizens' verbal abuse of his wife. So he posted a powerful message on his Weibo account to support his wife.
This message instantly made it onto the hot search. Some people said that Mu Junze was completely infatuated with Meng Nianchu and was still happy even after being cuckolded. They watched the show with a mocking attitude.
To make these negative news fade away as soon as possible, Meng Nianchu's public relations team released some loving videos of Meng Nianchu and Mu Junze and the charity work she had done.
Just when the public relations company managed to turn the situation around and the heat of this incident was finally starting to subside, the news that "Star Making" was going to resume shooting suddenly broke out.
The next day after this news was exposed, Meng Nianchu received a notice to resume shooting.
Since Zhang Fan had ended the program in a hurry, the program was only temporarily suspended. So Meng Nianchu's cooperation with this variety show hadn't expired, and she was supposed to continue shooting.
So many things had happened to this variety show one after another. Mu Junze didn't really want Meng Nianchu to participate anymore. But then he thought that if there were negative news about Meng Nianchu forcibly terminating the cooperation at this time, it would be even worse for her.
After much thought, he finally agreed to let Meng Nianchu participate.
What was supposed to be a nice week of rest had turned into a period of intense scandal. Meng Nianchu didn't even have the chance to enjoy the rest within these seven days before she was informed that she had to return to the shooting site.
Early in the morning, Mu Junze drove her to the destination.
When she came to this place again, Meng Nianchu felt mixed emotions. Last night, she had called Teacher Zhang Fan and asked about his recent situation.
Fortunately, Teacher Zhang Fan had some previous film and TV works to rely on. Even though this negative news had come out, he wasn't doing too badly. He just couldn't go out casually in the past few days and had to be careful of the anti - fans.
He also warned Meng Nianchu that the director in charge of this variety show was very vengeful. When she saw him, she had to choose her words carefully, otherwise, he might make things difficult for her during the program.
Remembering what Teacher Zhang Fan had said, Meng Nianchu took a deep breath and walked straight towards the practice room.
Just as she reached the door, she heard the scolding coming from inside.
"We won this through the competition! What right do you have to move our stuff and give our practice room to them? Is it the rule that the weaker one is in the right?"
"I'm the director!"
"Just because you're the director, you can be so unscrupulous and arrogant!"
Meng Nianchu pushed open the door and saw Mu Feng, his face red with anger, arguing with a thin man.
She walked over, and Mu Feng said angrily, "Teacher Meng, this guy says he's our new director, and he wants to give our practice room to Linda! We worked so hard to win this practice room, and he just says he'll give it away. Why?"
Meng Nianchu turned to look at the man on one side.
He was tall and thin, with a fair complexion and a straight back. His eyes were fixed on Meng Nianchu.
"Why do you want to give our practice room to Linda?" Meng Nianchu asked expressionlessly.
Meng Kun replied, "I'm the director of this variety show. I set the rules of the game, and I have my own judgment."
"Hurry up! Do you really need to be so slow with just this little stuff?" Linda's shrill voice sounded outside the room.
Yu Likun and several other trainees were carrying tables and luggage, looking confused.
When Meng Kun saw Linda, his tone immediately softened, "If I had known you were going to move things, you should have told me. There are so many people in the venue. Just let them do it."
"I'm so exhausted." Linda fanned herself with a fan. When she saw Meng Nianchu, a sneer appeared on her lips. She said in a strange tone, "I see your skin has turned much duller. Has this scandal bothered you so much these days?"
"Back then, I wondered why you and Zhang Fan seemed so strange. Whatever you did, he always indulged and accommodated you. I thought you were just bosom friends, but I didn't expect it was that dirty kind of relationship. No wonder you always won the competitions."
"We won the competitions with our own abilities! Unlike some people who have no skills but want to snatch others' things!" Mu Feng shouted angrily. If Meng Nianchu hadn't stopped him, he would have lost control of his temper and rushed up to teach Linda a good lesson.
Seeing Mu Feng so angry, Linda gave Yu Likun a look over her shoulder, signaling him to put the table in the corner.
"The thing between Meng Nianchu and Zhang Fan has spread on Weibo. Maybe they really have some kind of relationship behind the scenes. You won the competitions through under - the - table deals. Since it wasn't a fair win, anyone can use this practice room."
"Enough." Meng Kun glared at Mu Feng impatiently, "You've been arguing with me for so long. It's just being unreasonable!"
"But this..."
The look on Meng Kun's face became even gloomier, "I've said my piece. If you have any objections to my decision, you can just quit this variety show right now and leave."
Mu Feng's chest heaved violently as he gasped for air.
From the gentle and caring attitude Meng Kun had towards Linda when she entered the room, Meng Nianchu could tell that there was really something going on between them.
Since they were in cahoots, it would be useless for Meng Nianchu to say more here. She might even give them a handle.
So, she nodded while suppressing her anger, "Then I'll show you fairly and squarely who will win!"
She glanced at Mu Feng and the other five trainees, then started walking outside. The five trainees followed her out.
"Teacher, are we really just going to leave like this?" someone asked reluctantly.
Mu Feng also gritted his teeth and said, "This director is the one with a bad intention. Look at the way he looked at Linda just now. He talks in such a pretentious way. What a jerk!"
Meng Nianchu walked straight into the room at the end. She pushed open the door and saw a small space with simple equipment.
It was completely different from the practice room they had used before.
