"Impossible!" He Cong said firmly, "If you say that my brother Xing wears a pair of slippers when he goes out on the street, I will believe it. But I don't believe you when you say Jiang Se."
She always appeared calm and generous. In He Cong's opinion, the words "education" and "temperament" seemed to be tightly tied to Jiang Se. Over the years, the more He Cong got to know Jiang Se, the more he felt that nothing could make this girl panic.
"Really." The best friend's tone was a bit complicated. She was originally a die-hard fan of Zhu Pan. After the fight between Zhu Pan and Jiang Se, he was banned by Century Galaxy. After a few years, almost no one in China knew about Zhu Pan.
It was because Zhu Pan's future was ruined that she originally had an extremely disgusted attitude towards Jiang Se, until the two of them went to see the movie "About I Love You" starring Jiang Se that year. Since then, her best friend's feelings towards Jiang Se have changed.
Although she is annoying, she is the first one to read the news about Jiang Se, just like He Cong.
Whenever Jiang Se had a movie released, she would always be critical of it, but she would always go to the premiere at midnight and cry her eyes out every time. There were several times when she hid from He Cong and secretly watched the movie many times.
The best friend's mentality is quite subtle. The reason why she doesn't like Jiang Se is because of Zhu Pan at the beginning, and also because she obviously doesn't like her, but she always obediently pays for movie tickets for her.
And Jiang Se didn't have to do anything. After the Zhu Pan incident, she continued to act indifferently. She neither apologized nor tried to please others, and she didn't bow to Zhu Pan's many fans. Her works alone were enough to make many people who originally disliked her surrender.
"If you don't believe me, I'll upload the picture to your account and you'll know it at a glance."
As she was speaking, He heard a message alert from her mobile phone. She pressed the speakerphone button and clicked on it. She saw that the photo was released by a media reporter. Under the dim light, a woman was wearing a thick down jacket and had disheveled hair.
"It's obvious that this isn't Jiang Se!"
He Cong said this with great confidence. She even heard her best friend sighing with relief and asked her:
"How do you know?"
"Did you see her hair?" He Cong looked at the long hair that had grown to her hips. Jiang Se had indeed had long hair like this in the past two years. "But last year, after she finished filming Director Qi's "God's Redemption", she cut her hair for the movie. It's not this long at all." She calmly pointed out the obvious difference and analyzed:
"Besides, looking at the clothes she's wearing, it looks like it's winter. But in February, on the day of the premiere of Director Che's "Lost City", Jiang Se, as Director Che's friend, went to help promote it. I have all the photos from that time, and I've been to the scene. She maintained a very good figure, and this is obviously fake!"
After February, Jiang Se went to France and has been busy with work, so he has no time to return home.
The background of this photo was taken in the imperial capital. The girl in the photo is very tall, with long hair. She lowered her head and her face could not be seen clearly.
"This is clearly an intentional smear campaign. Is there someone who doesn't like her and is deliberately trying to use this method to deal with her?"
He Cong couldn't help asking, and her bestie was also wondering:
"I don't know, but she's been so popular in the past two years, so it's normal for some people to be jealous."
"No matter what, if someone spreads such a rumor, Century Galaxy should clarify it quickly. Jiang Se's agent is Xia Chaoqun, and she will not watch such a thing happen."
He Cong was quite confident in Xia Chaoqun, the famous gold medal agent. After chatting with her best friend on the phone for a while, her sleepiness was dispelled. Since she couldn't sleep anyway, she simply got up and browsed the web for a while.
She also saw the news her bestie mentioned, which already had over 70,000 or 80,000 comments.
Apart from a small number of people who were jumping up and down and saying that Jiang Se was "shameful", most netizens were quite rational and firmly believed that this was not Jiang Se, for reasons that were almost the same as those He Cong had used to convince her bestie.
After looking at it for a while, He Cong subconsciously clicked on Jiang Se's Weibo, Twitter and other social media account homepages, mechanically repeating the refresh action. As expected, Jiang Se's team responded quickly.
Shortly after the news was released, Jiang Se's major social media platforms were updated. First, he issued an announcement to denounce the false rumors, and at the same time released a photo of Jiang Se supporting the premiere of Cesare's "The Lost City" on the day of the premiere to dispel the rumors.
And during the French Film Festival, the several dresses that Jiang Se wore were also updated.
Jiang Se in the photo is either cute or pure and beautiful, which is completely different from the image of the girl in the news.
Soon, all major news media discovered the apology announcement. As a result, some people suspected that the production team was hyping up the release of "A Glimmer of Hope", while others suspected that Jiang Se had become too popular in recent years and some people wanted to frame her on purpose.
He Cong was relieved when she saw Jiang Se's team quickly refuted the rumor. However, she let go too soon, because the following period of time seemed like a farce. Someone once again exposed a false rumor, saying that Jiang Se had a disagreement with Xia Chaoqun during the French Film Festival, which led Xia Chaoqun to resign as Jiang Se's agent and no longer take care of Jiang Se's work!
When the news came out, many fans were really shocked because it concerned Jiang Se's future career.
Even He Cong was a little scared this time. After all, although Jiang Se and Xia Chaoqun have been working together for more than six years, Xia Chaoqun had also worked with Tao Cen for many years and was able to suddenly resign to concentrate on training Jiang Se. It is not impossible for Xia Chaoqun to suddenly resign at this time.
However, because it had been less than two days since the last rumor that Jiang Se was "out of shape and embarrassing herself abroad" spread by media reporters, when the news of "Xia Chaoqun's resignation" came out, although He Cong was frightened at first, he soon began to wonder if this was another way for someone to get rid of Jiang Se.
Her suspicion was soon confirmed. After whetting the appetite of netizens, when Jiang Se's fans were worried about her and many netizens were waiting for the gossip results, Xia Chaoqun, who almost never accepted interviews, once again denied this speculation through the website of China Information.
In the statement released by China Information, Xia Chaoqun solemnly emphasized that the cooperation between her and Jiang Se was quite pleasant and there was no "disagreement". Currently, Jiang Se's work is also being taken care of by her, and she hopes that everyone will not believe the false rumors.
Two pieces of news about Jiang Se were released one after another, and then quickly denied again. Some people have begun to suspect whether the two pieces of news about Jiang Se that were unfavorable to her were manipulated by certain people.
In a hotel in Nice, France, Xia Chaoqun's temporary residence has become the meeting room for Jiang Se's team.
When a campaign was launched in China to find the person who secretly spread "dirty information" about Jiang Se, the two previous false reports about Jiang Se were both made at the suggestion of Xia Chaoqun.
He was the first to expose two pieces of false news about Jiang Se and took the initiative into his own hands.
The French Film Festival finally came to an end, after stirring up the domestic entertainment news. (To be continued)
