I'm Pregnant with the Villain's Child

Chapter 297 – The whistleblower solemnly vowed that he had evidence to back up his claim (2)

After Ye Zhenting was sentenced to seven years in prison, someone saw online the news of the Ye’s mansion and other real estate being put up for auction. An insider revealed the news that the Ye’s had to sell all of their property in order to pay back the huge debt Ye Zhenting owned to the loan sharks.

Ye Qing’s contract was still with Chaoxun Entertainment. She couldn’t afford to pay the high liquidating damages. There was even less hope of winning a lawsuit. Without anyone noticing, she disappeared from the public’s eye.

The only person left was Mother Ye, who kept up with the Weibo posts. But that was for naught. Ye Zhen didn’t care about this at all.

Qinhua’s Riverside’s trailer had been released. Although the movie didn’t have a well-known director, Chaoxun Entertainment did its utmost to publicize the movie, online and offline.

In addition to Chaoxun Entertainment’s hyping of the movie, people were surprised to see that Ye Zhen’s name was on the credits list. She was actually the producer of the movie?!

Ye Zhen?

Ye Zhen as in the wife of Lu Beichuan, the CEO of Lu Conglomerate?

When did she become a producer?

Many people put up a summary of Ye Zhen’s academic and work records. With her unremarkable record paired with the lackluster cast of actors and actresses, many people had misgivings about the movie despite the excellently produced trailer.

The director wasn’t well-known, and the producer had no relevant experience. Other than Meng Jie, who played the part of the heroine, the other cast members weren’t well-known. As for Meng Jie, her popularity had been at its zenith four years ago.

With a lineup like this one, it was inevitable that many people would doubt the quality of the movie.

However, there were more people speculation whether this was Lu Corporation’s poor judgment or if it had been hoodwinked by members of the entertainment industry. After all, the trailer was only a few minutes. No matter the quality of the movie, it was possible to take out a few minutes of wonderful scenes from it to showcase.

While people were excitedly discussing this well-publicized film online, hot pieces of news suddenly arrived.

There were earth-shattering rumors that the actor, who played the male protagonist, was a two-timer, drove while drunk, hit reporters, and was temperamental and arrogant. There were rumors that his mother was a third party in a relationship and troubled the wife of the man she was cheating. The man’s wife ended up miscarrying because of her.

The private life of the actress playing a supporting female character was also messy. There were claims that she had an affair with the director of the movie and it was accompanied with photos and facts. These rumors were so fantastical.

Even Meng Jie wasn’t let off. It was said that her splendid success four years ago was because she had been kept by a rich man for five years.

The entire cast was plagued with negative rumors. Chaoxun Entertainment was faced with a huge public relations crisis.

Qin Zhiyin wasn’t frazzled by this. With her past experience, she deftly dealt with these negative rumors. She clarified the facts and had the lawyers’ send out their legal letters. She used all possible means to deal with this public relation issue, but the other party was obstinate and seemed determined to bite off a piece of meat from Qinhua’s Riverside.

This small-scaled attack was actually nothing to be scared about. From another perspective, negative attention was still attention. The more people negatively affected, the more the scope of attention would spread. Moreover, netizens had limited attention. The interest in this topic wouldn’t last for long.

However, another piece of news came out at this time.

It was said that Lu Corporation had paid a bribe to get Qinhua’s Riverside to pass review. That a government official and Lu Corporation were mutually shielding each other.

The whistleblower solemnly vowed that he had evidence to back up his claim.

This hot piece of news ignited the netizens’ attention.
