Chapter 956 - I’m Someone Who Loves Internet Gossip

“What should we do now?” Guo Saisai asked Tan Mo, “Is there no other way besides letting her slander me?”

“I know there is no need for you to handle my grievances, but... did something happen between you and Yuan Keqing? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have come to me and asked me for the truth. I won’t tell you my grievances but speak solely about this matter; it’s too easy just to let her off.”

“I know.” Tan Mo said, “The purpose of the call is to ask whether there is evidence to substantiate what you said.”

“Yes, but if I present it, there might not be any crew willing to hire me in the future,” Guo Saisai said honestly, “So before you called, I was hesitating because doing this would negatively impact my career.”

“What kind of evidence is it? Tell me about it.” Tan Mo asked.

Guo Sai Sai originally intended to discuss it with Tan Mo anyway.

She wanted to hear from Tan Mo.

Tan Mo was a scriptwriter, and Tan Jinqi was a director. Both of them would definitely be writing scripts and filming series other than “Broken Continent” in the future.

She could do so as long as Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi were willing to help and promise her that if she released the evidence, they would still get her to star in Tan Jinqi’s future films.

Even if she wasn’t suited for some of the roles, Tan Jinqi could recommend her to other film crews using his connections as a director.

As long as Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo were on her side, she would not be discriminated against by all the production teams.

All she needed now was their guarantee.

With the results of the last two seasons of the “Broken Continent”, Tan Jinqi had become one of the top directors in the entertainment circle.

This should only be a small favor to ask from him.

Tan Mo asking her about the evidence was exactly what she wanted to hear.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Guo Saisai replied immediately, “Actually, the production team told me to leave that day — there was no need for me to continue filming, and someone would be replacing me. I immediately went to check with the director and assistant director, and just in case I needed some evidence, I recorded our conversation.”

“The detailed explanation is there. Yuan Keqing replaced me for other reasons, not my acting skills. It’s just that the director and the assistant director didn’t say it explicitly and didn’t give any details. Still, any person with some life experience would understand the meaning behind their words.”

“I planned to reveal it only when I had no other choice because I’m afraid that no film crews would dare to use me once I do that.” Guo Saisai was afraid that Tan Mo would mistake her for someone she isn’t and explained, “I’m not trying to sabotage anyone, nor do I think about recording at other times. It’s just... being robbed of roles is a pretty regular thing, along with other injustices, but I’m only a nobody; this is the only way I could think of to protect myself.”

“You... you’re not going reject me from “Broken Continent”, are you?” Guo Saisai asked again.

“Why would I? We’ve already signed the contract. You’re definitely welcome into the group.” Tan Mo smiled. “Moreover, as long as we don’t do anything against our conscience, we don’t have to worry about being recorded.”

Besides, what Tan Mo didn’t say was, even if someone with malicious intent recorded and edited the recording to deliberately cause netizens to misunderstand.

Although the conversation could be perfectly normal, upon going through some objectionable editing, the recording may negatively impact the person’s image.

But even so, Tan Mo wasn’t afraid.

Those who dared to scheme against them had never had a good ending.

They’ll see who’s more brutal!

Even if Guo Saisai was currently recording their conversation, Tan Mo wasn’t afraid.

“If you trust me with that recording, send it to me. I’ll take care of it, and you wouldn’t need to come forward,” Tan Mo said, “About what you mentioned earlier regarding our agreement for you to act in the third season of “Broken Continent”, we’ll go ahead with the plan.”

“On top of that, I can also guarantee that you will not be refused roles because of the incident,” Tan Mo asked, “Does this sound alright to you?”

Guo Saisai felt reassured the moment Tan Mo said this.

Even more so when Tan Mo said that she only needed the recording and wouldn’t need her to come forward.

“No problem. I’ll send you the recording via WeChat right away,” said Guo Saisai.

The two of them had added each other’s contact details on WeChat.

Tan Mo had previously sent Guo Saisai the contract through WeChat, asking her to confirm the terms of the agreement.

“Okay.”

Guo Saisai sent the recording to Tan Mo right after hanging up.

She told Chen Jianglin what had happened. The latter patted her forehead and said, “Why didn’t we think of that earlier? There’s no need for you to come out personally. Just reveal it through a spam account. In that way, even if someone suspects you, there will not be any evidence.”

Tan Mo contacted the media presser immediately after receiving Guo Saisai’s recording.

But they didn’t release the recording right away. Instead, they waited until there was heated conversation among the netizens.

Yu Hanan collected data on these discussions and created a program to display the trending topics in real-time. The recording would only be released after the discussion about the matter reached a certain peak.

It was none other than a spam account that released the recording

This time, Tan Mo gave the account the role of a gossiper.

“The spam account just posted on Weibo again!”

“I am so thrilled by the scandal!”

“I’m enjoying the gossip so much.”

“It’s not the two people that we are paying attention to, but the chaos in the entertainment industry. It’s so exhilarating.”

“Can’t they post everything at once? I have to search all over Weibo, and it is so time-consuming that I can’t even get anything done.”

“Me too! I’m still following Weibo when I’m working overtime, and my work efficiency has decreased.”

“Wow, aren’t you afraid that your boss and colleagues will see it?”

“I’m working overtime at home. I don’t even have overtime pay. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Could this be the legendary man who has 007’s blessing?”

“The poor original poster. I feel sorry for you.”

“This spam account sure knows how to cliff-hang everyone. The account owner is slowly suffocating Yuan Keqing and the film crew with all the shreds of evidence.”

All the netizens checked the new Weibo post by the spam account. They didn’t expect it to be a recording, and it was exceptionally high quality.

They heard Guo Saisai calling the director and the assistant director, allowing their identity to be unambiguous.

Of course, it was still unclear which voice was the director’s and which was the assistant director’s, but this didn’t prevent the netizens from understanding what was going on.

The only female voice belonged, of course, to Guo Saisai.

Guo Saisai asked, “Assistant Director Chen, why did you suddenly stop me from filming? Is there something that I did wrongly? Did I act badly?”

Assistant Director Chen replied, “I’m not too sure either. The director asked me to inform you.”

Guo Saisai questioned the director, “Director Zhang, why did you ask me to leave the production team? What’s wrong with my acting?”
