Chapter 2665: No Longer Believe in Her Hackneyed Criticism

On the other hand, Ji Yan’s reputation had hit rock bottom.
Realizing that the public opinion was becoming lopsided, she could not hold back herself from making another appearance before the camera in a TV program.
Attempting to clarify her blaming, she came up with all those hackneyed criticisms during the interview with the media. However, even the host no longer believed her cliché reasons, so she had to make a bolder, final gambit!
“Yun Shishi rose to the top through subterfuge!
“She’s had entanglement with Mu Yazhe long before she debuted, and that’s why she’s in possession of so many valuable resources right from the get-go; she’s being supported by that man from behind the scenes all along!
“She’s always been very arrogant and rude even when she was still a newcomer; with countless resources and overwhelming support at her disposal, she’s able to trample on the crew. Many grumble about her, in fact.”
Ji Yan, at this point, finally admitted to being Yan Bingqing in front of the media.
She started to pour out her woes to them, including that time when she was among the cast of ‘The Green Apple’. She went to complain about how the other actress had behaved like a diva on set and bullied her as well as every crew member.
The entertainment industry was one which emphasized on seniority.
Yun Shishi, as a newcomer, had aggrieved and even threatened her agent then. Realizing that such a newbie was trying to ride on her coattails, she decided to teach her a lesson. Once, after the two had a row, she could not help giving the other dozens of slaps on the pretext of acting.
Unfortunately, she did not expect her behavior to antagonize the formidable supporter behind her colleague.
After that, she was blocked and banned from showbiz. Left with no choice, she had to flee to Hong Kong and lived anonymously. Eventually, she had to undergo plastic surgery in Korea with much sorrow just to return to the mainland’s entertainment industry using a brand new identity.
She did all those things because she could no longer take everything lying down. She wanted the other to pay for her bitter experience!
The reporters specially went to investigate and interview the original production members of ‘The Green Apple’ from the actors to the staff. Their jaws dropped when they learned that the truth was far from what Yan Bingqing had described it.
The protagonist had an excellent reputation on set. As a newcomer, she was very humble and without airs. Respectful of every staff member, including the cleaner, she would greet everyone cordially each time she saw them.
At an interview, Yang Mi came to her colleague’s defense as well. “Admittedly, I disliked Yun Shishi when I first met her. I felt that she’s too serious and much of a perfectionist. She’s persistent in her acting almost to a fault. There were times when a single take was obviously sufficient, but she would make us go through it again. Later, though, I got to know that she is just dedicated to her craft and wants to present her work better to the viewers. After getting along with her, I found her character humble and gentle, and we became good friends.”
“All the crew members loved her!” proclaimed one of the cameramen in her previous production team. “Oftentimes, when the crew responsible for lifting the mics during the shoots felt tired, she’d bring them fruits and water. Later, though she gained some fame, she’s still the same as ever. As one of the cast of ‘Lethal Beauty’, she didn’t put on airs unlike those newcomers who usually become famous overnight.
“Her character isn’t suitable for showbiz. Not having any scheming bone in her body, she was often bullied on set at first.”
