Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 700 As long as the money is in place, I am willing to do anything!

Chapter 700: Chapter 700 As long as the money is in place, I am willing to do anything!

"The official Weibo account of ’Doomsday Beehive’ fell in a second, with the comments section filled with all kinds of unbearable insults.

Plagiarism was already a major taboo in the industry, and now, exploited by those with ulterior motives, the momentum had surged to its peak.

Looking at these trending searches, Qin Tianxiang was smug with pride.

This was the outcome for Jiang Li, who had cornered himself!

If he couldn’t eat meat, then no one would!

The film hadn’t even started shooting and its reputation had already plummeted; they could just wait for ’Doomsday Beehive’ to incur huge losses!

In order to clarify, Shao Changqing and his group had made several statements overnight, but all were like a silver needle dropped in the ocean, failing to ripple the waters.

It was clear that Qin Tianxiang had invested heavily this time to bring them down.

Having no other choice, Shao Changqing had to call Jiang Li again.

However, Jiang Li remained unflustered on the other end of the phone.

’It’s fine, the situation is within my expectations. Let them make a fuss for now, the bigger the fuss, the better.’

Shao Changqing didn’t understand and wanted to ask more, but Jiang Li ended the conversation.

’I’m having dinner with someone, we’ll talk another time.’

After saying that, Jiang Li hung up the phone and looked up at the heavily made-up woman opposite him.

’What do you think? Have you made up your mind?’

The woman glanced at the document in her hand, then at Jiang Li, and said half-doubtfully, ’Can you really offer me these terms?’

’Of course.’ Jiang Li took a bite of the dessert in front of him. ’I own shares in Xingmei Entertainment. Sneaking you in is as easy as flipping my hand. Moreover, don’t forget, their manager is my own aunt. Getting you a contract is just a matter of saying the word.’

The woman became somewhat excited but still maintained her rationale.

’But if you have me do this, isn’t it the same as pushing me into a fire pit? When the time comes, everyone will curse at me. If my reputation worsens, how can I get any more roles?’

Jiang Li smiled faintly, his gaze profound.

’Would you rather be slandered and transform into a notorious figure or continue being an obscure eighteenth-tier actress? You’re in the industry, you should know the math better than I do, Miss Fu.’

’And who said you’d definitely be cursed?’

Fu Xiaoxiao bit her lip.

She knew how piercing Jiang Li’s words were.

She was already thirty. From university graduation until now, she had never even been a legitimate female lead.

It wasn’t that she lacked talent or looks; the industry was just too saturated, and becoming famous was extremely difficult.

Jiang Li was indeed right.

If she wanted to rely solely on proper acting, she might not even afford meals in her later years.

This, indeed, was an opportunity.

Seeing her hesitate, Jiang Li simply snatched the document from in front of her.

’If Miss Fu is unwilling, let’s forget it. I have plenty of alternatives. Looking forward to our next collaboration.’

’No, no!’ Fu Xiaoxiao grabbed the folder, her eyes flashing with a spark, ’I will do as you say!’

’Miss Jiang, you’re right. As an actress, it’s either fire or death. I don’t want to just let my life pass by; I want to take a chance.’

’What does it matter if I’m blacklisted? As long as I have enough fame and money, I’m willing to do whatever it takes!’

At least Jiang Li wouldn’t exploit her."

Thinking of the greasy-haired producers, directors, and investor bosses, Fu Xiaoxiao felt nauseated.

Her contract with her current company was about to expire, and enduring until now had gotten her no resources; she might as well take a gamble at the now thriving Star Media.

If it weren’t for Jiang Li, she probably wouldn’t have even been able to touch the threshold of their company!

Thinking this, Fu Xiaoxiao did not hesitate to pick up the pen and sign the contract, fearing that the next second Jiang Li would change his mind.

Jiang Li smiled, very pleased with her response, and raised his hand to signal the waiter to check out.

"It’s all up to you now."

That very night, Fu Xiaoxiao released a post on Weibo.

The content was roughly about her being threatened by the bosses behind the scenes, asking her to send them materials from the original crew, but she hadn’t expected things to develop this way. Due to severe self-condemnation and unease, she couldn’t withstand the pressure and decided to expose the truth.

The post included a photo of Jiang Yan’s makeup taken during her time in the Doomsday Beehive crew, evidence of the Escape investment party threatening her, and proof that the Doomsday Beehive’s makeup artists were indeed the original creators.

Once the post was released, it immediately sparked a heated discussion.

[Wait, there’s a twist? Plagiarism turned into originality?!]

[Escape is that despicable??? Not only shamelessly copying others, but also slandering the originals as plagiarists?]

[Just cancel the movie altogether, who would watch such a tasteless film!]

[Talking about Fu Xiaoxiao being two-faced, reaping benefits from both sides? Even if threatened, she shouldn’t slander the original like this.]

[If you’re not in that circle, don’t talk without experiencing their struggle; you don’t understand the severity because it hasn’t threatened you, right? I think Xiaoxiao is very brave; at least she dared to stand up after the incident escalated!]

[Exactly, if it weren’t for people like her, who knows how many originals would be attacked. Even if the investors didn’t approach Fu Xiaoxiao, they would have found someone else, but not everyone might have had the courage to speak out under pressure.]

Fu Xiaoxiao was extremely surprised.

The development of the situation was completely predicted by Jiang Li, the netizens didn’t scold her much, they even supported her.

Her Weibo followers increased by two million overnight, and even added a batch of hardcore fans who appreciated her style.

Meanwhile, the Escape crew was severely criticized, and even their official Weibo couldn’t withstand the pressure and was deactivated overnight.

The third male lead was even forced to come out and apologize, clarifying that he was completely unaware and had been deceived.

In contrast, Doomsday Beehive was widely praised.

A large number of netizens started paying attention to this series, and actively promoted their new styling, directly saving Shao Changqing a bundle in advertising costs.

Not only that, more investors saw them, and with the momentum, Shao Changqing pulled in several more advertising sponsorships.

Some rejoiced, and some despaired.

Qin Tianxiang, having been targeted like this, not only lost millions in PR costs but even his movie, previously very promising, prepared to flop.

In his fury, he smashed two purple clay pots.

"That damn Fu Xiaoxiao, dares to bite me?! I think she’s tired of living!"

Now that Jiang Li’s fame was big and the Jiang Family was on the rise, he couldn’t provoke him yet.

But dealing with a Fu Xiaoxiao was still easy as flipping his hand.

He immediately dispatched some underlings to ambush Fu Xiaoxiao on her way off from work.

But Jiang Li had already sent Ji Yanbai to guard her.

Four thugs swinging iron rods were no match for Ji Yanbai, a special forces wrestling champion. A few moves later, arms were broken and legs bent.

Afterward, Ji Yanbai dumped these men into the police station overnight, finding the officer he once knew in the military.

The next day, Qin Tianxiang was invited to the police station.

This matter finally came to a proper close.
