473 The Great Change in the Shen Family

“This is simply too much!”
Whenever she was in a hurry, Chen Lan would walk around Song Qingyou’s office, refusing to put down her phone and scrolling through the negative comments.
“Isn’t this a little too ridiculous?”
“I’ve been a manager for so long, but I’ve never seen anyone talk about bad luck!”
“Aren’t they superstitious? Aren’t you afraid of being reported?”
“Before the filming starts, we still have to offer incense.” Song Qingyou sipped her tea calmly.
“That’s different.” Chen Lan waved her hand. “At most, it’s just praying to the gods and hoping that everything goes smoothly. It can be considered a ritual.” She pointed at the phone and said, “Look, if you break your leg, blame the movie for being unlucky. If you get into a car accident, blame the movie for being unlucky. Next time, will you blame the movie for even killing someone?” Before she could finish her sentence, a new message suddenly popped up on Chen Lan’s phone.
[A young man was stabbed to death in an argument at the cinema.]
“Wait.” Song Qingyou frowned.
Chen Lan stopped and followed her gaze to the phone screen.
They clicked on the news and saw the small words below:
‘It is reported that the dispute between the two mainly stemmed from the movie The Laws of Love…’
Song Qingyou looked up at Chen Lan.
“Sister Lan, it seems like you still have the potential to jinx things.”
Chen Lan was speechless.
“Is this the time to talk about this? Even a life has been lost, and there are still people watching the movie during the new year?”
Her worries were not without reason.
Because not long after the news came out, the cinema where the murder happened found an excuse to cancel all the screenings of” The Laws of Love ” and paid the penalty for breaching the contract.
In addition, other cinemas were also worried about accidents and began to drastically reduce the screening schedule of The Laws of Love. Some cinemas even scheduled The Laws of Love at midnight and only had one screening a week.
Under such circumstances, it was easy to imagine how low the box office sales of The Laws of Love would be.
The only thing he could count on now was the theater chains under the Jiangyuan Group and the Dongfang Group.
Needless to say, Jiang Zhihan was definitely on Song Qingyou’s side.
As for Lu Ziyan-
The theater chains under Dongfang had yet to make any moves, so they probably wouldn’t take advantage of the situation so soon.
Chen Lan became more anxious and naturally thought of He Jun.
“Let’s use the Internet water army. We can only defeat magic with magic now.” Song Qingyou didn’t refuse, but she didn’t do as Chen Lan had suggested. She didn’t ask the Internet trolls to raise objections like “feudal superstition”. Instead, she asked them to encourage the public to launch a “movie challenge.” After all, many horror movies had scary news, but it didn’t stop most people from watching them.
On the other hand, The Laws of Love was just a groundless bad luck. Not everyone who had watched the movie was unlucky. He believed that more people would be willing to challenge it.
However, this was not a long-term solution.
Chen Lan was still worried.
” Don’t worry,” Song Qingyou said with a smile.” After these two days, the rumors online won’t last long.”
“How can you be so sure?” Chen Lan sighed. “In my opinion, the person behind this is trying to ruin our movie.”
Song Qingyou didn’t answer.
The reason why she was so sure was, of course, because Shen Xiyan would soon be unable to take care of herself.
The next day, the news of the change in the Shen Corporation’s shares and the probability of the company changing hands was like a thunderbolt that shocked everyone.
This included Shen Ji, who thought he had everything under control.
After hearing the news, he fainted on the spot. According to the doctor’s judgment, he would most likely remain paralyzed.
However, the outside world did not care about the rest of his life at all. They only wanted to know what happened to the Shen Corporation and why it was about to change hands quietly.
Whether it was social news or entertainment news, all of them gave way to this piece of heavy news.
Of course, social news focused on the Shen Corporation’s shares, while entertainment news focused most of its attention on Time Media.
When the Shen Corporation’s stock price plummeted, Longxing Logistics began to acquire it.
Now, with the help of Shen Ji’s first wife’s daughter, Shen Wan, and Secretary Li’s sudden change of heart, Longxing Logistics had become the largest shareholder of the Shen Corporation.
Even Time Media, which was controlled by the Shen family, was under the control of Longxing Logistics.
Countless media outlets swarmed over, wanting to interview Lin Xuyang and dig out the inside story.
However, before they could get the first-hand news, all the negative news about the Shen Corporation was released.
Stealing goods and leaking goods, not taking human life seriously, the quality of the products was not up to standard…
The news was placed in front of the public and instantly aroused public anger. The Shen family’s rapid development was simply eating human blood buns! This time, even Shen Xiyan became a street rat that everyone hated.
Shen Xiyan could not accept the fact that she had lost the protection of the Shen family when she suddenly heard that everyone in the Shen family might be sued and might even be in debt.
She made a prompt decision and made a statement on Weibo, saying that everything had nothing to do with her. She had never participated in the operation and management of the Shen Corporation, and she was not related to Shen Ji at all.
This was the first time that Shen Xiyan admitted that she was only the adopted daughter of the Shen family.
Before this, her fans had always believed that Shen Xiyan was the daughter of the Shen family because she had never denied it herself!
Because of this, the fans were very hostile towards Shen Wan, who had suddenly appeared.
But now, when something happened to the Shen family, Shen Xiyan revealed the truth?
Many fans felt cheated and chose to remain silent in this incident.
Without the fans’ argument, Shen Xiyan’s apology was criticized by netizens.
There was no other reason. Even if Shen Xiyan was only an adopted daughter, she grew up in the Shen family and ate human blood buns!
The hashtag #Shen Xiyan get out of the Entertainment Industry# became a hot topic.
Shen Xiyan never expected that she would be standing on the edge of the cliff overnight.
Time Media no longer belonged to her, and her bank account was frozen.
She had no choice but to put down her attitude and beg people she looked down on in the past, such as Ji Yuan.
However, these people were either unwilling to help or unable to help.
Ji Yuan said that he could help her, but the condition was that Shen Xiyan had to leave the industry and marry into the Ji family.
How could this be?
She had finally managed to get into the A-list and had so many fans!
Shen Xiyan thought that Ji Yuan was taking advantage of her and hung up the phone angrily.
Chen Lan watched a good show as the Shen family changed dramatically.
Looking at the social news, Longxing Logistics had a high appearance rate. How could she not understand why Song Qingyou was so confident that she could solve the bad luck rumors?
However, she didn’t stay idle and immediately asked He Jun to release the news.
The bad luck of The Laws of Love was all rumors, and the culprit was Shen Xiyan.
This time, it was almost impossible to stop negative news about Shen Xiyan.
They could take advantage of Shen Xiyan’s popularity to promote the movie again..
