Chapter 368: 352 Ying Zijin: You’re worthy for me to act? [2 updates]
Since the recording of the program was set to begin in the afternoon, all the contestants needed to finish their makeup in the morning, and they also needed to check into the sequestered training camp prepared by the program team.
Like “Youth 101”, during the selection period, contestants were not allowed to leave the training camp without permission, and they had to hand over all communication devices including mobile phones.
The emergency involving Ye Xi presented a thorny issue for the program’s director and producer.
She was the initiator of this male group and was also in charge of hosting the entire talent competition.
Moreover, to attract a large audience, as early as January 1st, the program team had announced that Ye Xi was the initiator for this male group.
Ye Xi’s fans were rejoicing below, and the program’s popularity had increased a great deal as a result.
The mentors had not been announced yet and could be replaced at the last minute, but what about the initiator of the male group?
Chen Li also hurried over from outside, her face somber, “Producer Li, we must investigate this matter thoroughly. We will not let Yun Heyue and her assistant off the hook.”
Producer Li was always aware of the underhanded tricks in the entertainment industry.
He had seen a lot and usually turned a blind eye.
After hearing the staff recount what had happened earlier, Producer Li couldn’t help but frown, “Is it necessary to go so far as to lay hands on a top influencer over a minor assistant? If this is really discovered, wouldn’t it be the end?”
Each top influencer has a fan base so huge it’s terrifying, something even seasoned artists can’t compare with.
Anyone with brains wouldn’t do such a thing.
“Why wouldn’t they go to such lengths?” Chen Li sneered sarcastically, “Some narrow-minded people want revenge, and took it out on our Xixi.”
Producer Li remembered the interview day incident, his face darkening, “Aren’t you the one who deliberately stirred up trouble in the first place?”
He had been scolded bloody by the sponsor because of it.
Chen Li did not expect Producer Li to openly disregard her face in front of so many people, her expression chilling: “Producer Li, this is a separate matter, clearly—”
“Why argue over nonsense?” the director had no choice but to interrupt their quarrel, “First, take Teacher Ye to the hospital discreetly, and we’ll discuss other matters later.”
He then addressed the staff, “And you, go check the surveillance to see exactly what happened in the makeup room.”
If Ye Xi’s skin allergic reaction was caught by the paparazzi, the internet would be in an uproar.
Even her competitors might spread rumors through marketing accounts that Ye Xi was disfigured or pregnant.
Chen Li was also acutely aware of this.
Right now, Ye Xi was the most important matter.
“Xixi, let’s go.” Chen Li said coldly, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you get justice.”
Ye Xi responded in a muffled tone and got onto the nanny van.

Elsewhere, at the Chuguang Media headquarters in the capital.
Yun Heyue followed Ying Zijin into the private elevator, unseen by other employees.
The private elevator went directly to the thirty-second floor, where the female secretary had been waiting.
She had been running errands for Ying Zijin from one side to the other, and had only recently moved from Shanghai City to the capital.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, the female secretary bowed, “Boss, everything you asked for has been prepared, and then—”
Looking up, she saw the boy following behind the girl, her shock greater than her surprise, and she took a big step back, “Boss, why did you bring my other son here?!”
“…”
Ying Zijin glanced at her and tossed the cellphone in his hand, “I’ll call Shang Yaozhi now.”
“No, no, that won’t do,” the female secretary said, clutching her chest, “I still love him the most, I only had a small slip recently, just a little one.”
Yun Heyue revealed a faint smile, pure and clear.
The female secretary’s maternal love overflowed uncontrollably; after escorting Yun Heyue to the makeup room with Ying Zijin, she asked, “Boss, are you going to sign him?”
Apart from Yu Xuesheng and Ying Zijin, no one knew that Yun Heyue was actually a girl.
The female secretary hadn’t realized it either.
Chuguang Media had also contacted Yun Heyue, wanting to sign her but was still rejected.
“No,” Ying Zijin replied indifferently, “No matter how good the terms of the contract are, it’s still a restraint. She doesn’t need that.”
The female secretary thought about it and understood.
The entertainment industry was a cesspool, and clean people like Yun Heyue were too rare.
“But we can open an independent studio for her,” said Ying Zijin, “Prepare for it after the competition is over.”
In this way, Yun Heyue could have a better development space.
Shang Yaozhi was a triple-threat star, but in reality, his singing skills were just mediocre.
Chuguang Media didn’t have many singers under its label, and Yun Heyue could just fill this gap.
“Boss,” the female secretary checked the information, and suddenly said, “Youth 202 just issued a notice that the competition is being postponed due to an emergency.”
As she read on, she exclaimed, “It’s an issue with Teacher Ye’s health, they’ve all gone to the hospital.”
