Su Yayan stared into Wen Jingping’s eyes and walked down the stairs.
“Miss Wen, what qualifications do you think you have to be one of the seven?”
“I…”
“Popularity? If I remember correctly, after Miss Wen successfully passed the preliminary round of the competition, she started to stir up trouble. She was suspected of cheating the newbie host of the website, but was sued instead. She lost quite a lot of money, and her popularity fell drastically. After that, there was even a fight between the top 20 contestants, causing a huge negative impact on the production team.”
Wen Jingping’s face was ashen. She opened her mouth to retort but realized she could not say anything.
“According to the terms of the program’s contract, the female artistes who participate in the show must ensure that their reputation is sufficiently positive during the filming of the show. If the production team is implicated by the artiste’s negative reputation during this period, the production team has the right to ask the artiste to withdraw from the competition and request the artiste to compensate for the series of losses that the production team has suffered because of her.”
This contract requirement was very common. Most of the contracts signed before entering the cast and variety show, shooting advertisements, and signing contracts were like this.
After all, investors needed to earn money as well. An artist who could not bring about a positive impact on their own product and could even tarnish their product’s reputation could only impact their losses.
Su Yayan happened to be one of the investors who had Wen Jingping’s lifeline.
“Based on what you said, if I really wanted to use my identity as an investor to take revenge, then I should have informed the production team to kick you out of the production team. Why would I wait until the end? You guys might as well go and investigate. Because of the first two things, Miss Wen’s reputation is more positive or negative.”
Su Yayan gave Wen Jingping a meaningful look. “Miss Wen, you’re telling me this now because you want to remind me how much damage you’ve caused to the production team. Do you want to take responsibility?”
Wen Jingping’s expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously took a step back.
However, Huo Shaofeng subconsciously retorted, “Why didn’t you think of kicking Little Ping out of the program team back then? It was obviously me…”
“Shaofeng!” Wen Jingping hurriedly pulled Huo Shaofeng’s sleeve to stop him from continuing.
The two times that she was almost kicked out of the show, she had asked Huo Shaofeng for help.
Even though she did not make it to the end, the production team had indeed changed their mind after Huo Shaofeng called. Wen Jingping naturally thought that the production team had kept her because of Huo Shaofeng’s pressure.
They were here today to prove that Su Yayan was targeting her because of her past, using the production team’s malicious editing to defame her, and even sacrificing the company’s artists to ruin her reputation.
She wanted to wash away all the bad reputation that she had brought upon herself and throw dirt on Su Yayan and her company.
However, if Huo Shaofeng were to pressure the production team and force them to reveal what they had done, she would be the one taking the shortcut. What right did she have to stand on the high ground and criticize others?
“It’s obviously you?” The more Su Yayan looked at him, the more she felt that Huo Shaofeng was an idiot.
She had only retorted a few sentences, and he was already about to self-destruct. She did not feel any sense of accomplishment at all.
Wen Jingping took in Su Yayan’s calm demeanor and suddenly felt an unprecedented fear. She seemed to have accidentally… provoked a devil!
