Chapter 473: Fu Zhi, The Greatest Brainwasher, Is Back On Duty

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fu Zhi was so exasperated when she heard Ye Shiyun’s comment that her chest, which was still developing, began to ache.

She turned around and swore to God that she would not talk to Ye Shiyun anymore.

Ye Shiyun knew she was angry at him because he had just touched her sore spot.

Then, he turned to Xiao Bai and asked, “Did Guang Yuan sign it? Did he sell himself to Fu Zhi?”

Xiao Bai looked at Ye Shiyun speechlessly. He then nodded in embarrassment and replied, “Yes, but…”

‘But you guys have to work together so that the movie will be successful.’

Before the second half of the sentence could come out of his lips, Ye Shiyun suddenly scoffed coldly and said, “That’s good then. Because if he’s here, then I’m out of here. I don’t work with stupid, unprofessional, melodramatic good-for-nothings who can’t even do their job properly.”

Xiao Bai did not know what to say.

‘Are you sure your conscience doesn’t hurt after saying something like that? You do know how poor your acting skills are, right?’

Guang Yuan was enraged by his attitude as well. “I don’t f*cking care!” he shouted.

If Fu Zhi hadn’t been there, he would have pounced on Ye Shiyun and scratched his face.

‘What the hell does that even mean? I can’t do my job properly? Why didn’t he look at his poker face through a mirror before saying that in my face?’

Both of them had a fiery temper and had beaten their fanatic fans before. Just like fire and the wind, nothing would happen if they did not meet each other, but the moment they came across each other, all hell would break loose.

Sitting on a chair, Fu Zhi said, “Ye Shiyun has to be in the movie.”

Other than Xiao Bai and Feng Bo, no one knew that Ye Shiyun was Fu Zhi’s brother. Thus, when she made this statement, she exuded the vibe of a sugar mommy.

Guang Yuan took Fu Zhi’s money. They had signed a contract, so if he wanted to quit now, he had to pay 10 times the money Fu Zhi had paid him.

Guang Yuan licked his lip and tried to reason with Fu Zhi. “Ms. Fu, you’re not an actor, so you might not understand how things work for an actor. I’m not saying this because I don’t like him, but because this is my own experience. I don’t think Ye Shiyun is a good fit for the character of Shao Kai.”

“That’s why he needs the chance to train,” Fu Zhi replied.

It went without saying that Fu Zhi knew her brother was not a good fit for the character, but it would be considered a big improvement as long as he did not fail too hard at playing that character.

Ye Shiyun touched the cup on the table.

Guang Yuan did not agree with Fu Zhi’s reasoning. “A chance worth more than a billion? Isn’t that just…”

‘Isn’t that just nonsense?!’

However, since Fu Zhi was his boss, Guang Yuan did not dare say anything definite.

“If you don’t want the movie to fail, I suggest you think twice.”

Ye Shiyun took a gulp of water and said, “You’re really such a busybody.”

“What did you say?!”

“I said, you should stop poking your d*mn nose into other people’s business. Both of us are playing the leading roles, so what makes you think that you can boss me around? Why should you care how I’m going to portray my character?”

Ye Shiyun looked at Guang Yuan as if he was looking at a mentally handicapped patient. Then, he pointed at the little girl with puffed cheeks and added, “She’s my sponsor. Do you think it’s good for you to disparage me in front of my sponsor and damage our relationship? Since you’ve already signed the contract, then you have to understand that Fu Zhi is the main investor of this movie, so that makes me someone closely related to her. If you’re a professional actor, you shouldn’t judge me and cause conflict on the set before the movie is even released.”

Guang Yuan looked at Fu Zhi in disbelief.

‘Fu Zhi is Ye Shiyun’s sponsor?!’

When the realization dawned on him, Guang Yuan suddenly had a feeling that maybe he had jumped into a trap.

Ye Shiyun was the actor he scolded and criticized the most, and now, Ye Shiyun’s sponsor had become his sponsor as well.

Guang Yuan had no idea why but he had a hunch that Fu Zhi was helping Ye Shiyun exact revenge on him.

A second later, what Ye Shiyun said confirmed his theory.

Ye Shiyun dusted his shirt off and said plainly, “If you guys want me to work with him, sure, I can do it. But he has to apologize to me on Weibo and tell everyone that I’m a better actor than him.”

He paused for a moment before adding, “By the way, your tone and the words you use have to show that you’re praising me sincerely from the bottom of your heart, just like you said I’m not worthy of being an actor. Otherwise, I won’t buy it.”

Fu Zhi and the crowd were petrified when they heard Ye Shiyun’s demand. They thought their ears or brains were playing a trick on them, as they could not believe what they had just heard.

Ye Shiyun scratched Fu Zhi’s palm, making her snap back to reality.

‘Stop being such a baby!’ Fu Zhi, aka the sugar mommy, shouted inwardly.

She cleared her throat and recalled the essay “My dear brother” that Ye Jiu had written when they were still kids. She then looked at Ye San and said, “I know him very well. He had a rough childhood. He never met his biological parents, and since he was poor, he had to live hand to mouth, never knowing where his next meal was coming from. I remember that on a snowy night, Ye Shiyun, who had a fever of 60 degrees, carried his young and sickly brother to town to see a doctor. Although he couldn’t get a car, he kept falling down, and his body was filled with blood, he didn’t give up. In the end, he nearly took his brother, who had a fish bone stuck in his mouth, to heaven.”

The crowd was speechless. All of them felt that this was a tragic story, but they did not buy Fu Zhi’s story at all.

Ye Shiyun then passed a microphone to Fu Zhi and played the song “My Brother” on his phone.

It was only then that Fu Zhi got into her stride, and her eyes flared with fighting spirit.

“You may think it’s funny, but it was a devastating blow to the already poor brothers, especially because the elder brother had to borrow money from a loan shark to pay for his younger brother’s medical bills!

“Do you know why I’m telling you guys this? Is it because I want you guys to take pity on him? No! It is not! I’m telling you guys this story because I want you to know the heartbreaking history of a poor little boy!

“After he paid off the loan shark, in order to buy a bowl of fish soup for his younger brother, he resolutely embarked on the path of becoming an actor!

“Even though he’s scolded by his seniors, even though he’s ridiculed and mocked by the public, he’s still the brightest meteor in the night sky! Right now, all he wants is an apology. Is that too much to ask?!”

“No!” Guang Yuan’s agent replied, his eyes filled with tears. “What a tragedy. How could he borrow from a loan shark? I couldn’t stop thinking about how badly they would have beaten him up if he couldn’t pay them back!”

Fu Zhi’s story had managed to strike a chord with Feng Bo, who said, “I could relate to him. Guang Yuan, you achieved great things the moment you entered the entertainment industry, so you might not be able to understand what he has gone through. Anyway, why don’t you just do what he said this time? After all, he just wants to give his brother a home.”

The crowd said, “Yes! Yes!”

Perhaps they had all been moved by the story, as all of them had lost their senses.

When they thought about it, they realized that Guang Yuan had kept giving Ye Shiyun a hard time. As for Ye Shiyun, out of the 10 times Guang Yuan had picked on him, he had just retaliated five or six times.

Everyone on the movie set hoped that Guang Yuan would stop picking on Ye Shiyun.

Guang Yuan did not know what to say at all.

Then, his agent patted his shoulder and said, “Ostrovsky said that the joys and sorrows of mankind are not connected. You should try to understand Ye Shiyun.”

‘To hell with Ostrovsky. If he had a fever of 60 degrees, he would’ve died!’

Guang Yuan shook his agent’s hand off his shoulder and said emotionlessly, “That was said by Mr. Lu Xun. The joys and sorrows of mankind are not connected. I just feel that you guys are making a lot of noise and I see how important it is to have a sponsor who’s good at brainwashing.”

Ye Shiyun scratched Fu Zhi’s palm again, lifted his chin, and said, “Let’s do it, Mr. Guang Yuan.”

Guang Yuan logged into his Weibo account again. Then, he deleted the five posts that he had made about Ye Shiyun.

After doing that, he published a new post on his Weibo.

[I’ve been in this industry for more than 20 years, and Ye Shiyun is the best actor I’ve ever met. I can see that he’s going to be a great, successful actor in the future. Therefore, I would like to deeply apologize to Ye Shiyun for everything I said about him earlier. I hope you can forgive me and I wish you good luck with your future endeavors. Thank you. Cheers!]

Guang Yuan nearly puked while creating the post.

When the netizens and Ye Shiyun’s haters saw his post, all of them were dumbfounded.

[Huh? What happened? Guang Yuan, blink if someone is threatening you. We will come to save you right away!]

[The only man in the entertainment industry who dared to speak the truth was also driven crazy by this cruel capitalist market? He is actually cheering on Ye Shiyun?]

[Well, this is kind of unexpected.]

[I smell something fishy between them. Could it be… *Wink* *Wink*]

… action

As the netizens surged into Guang Yuan’s Weibo, Feng Bo realized something.

“Guang Yun just posted an apology and the internet went crazy? Judging from their reaction, if they learn that the two of them are going to work together on a movie, the entire Weibo is going to blow up. We don’t even need to spend a single penny on publicity.”

At the same time, Ye Shiyun’s fans also suspected that Ye Shiyun was going to work with Guang Yuan on a movie.

They did not harbor any hope about Ye Shiyun’s acting skills whatsoever. They just hoped that Ye Shiyun could drag Guang Yuan down with his “superbly poor” acting skills and become the obstacle in Guang Yuan’s path of becoming the best actor in the world.

However, not everyone on the internet thought like that.

They did not think Ye Shiyun had the qualifications to work with Guang Yuan.

After all, in their opinion, a bad actor like Ye Shiyun, who couldn’t sing, dance, or read a script correctly, should just stay at the bottom of the food chain and acting in web series was his destiny.

When Ye Shiyun saw their comments, he replied to them personally. [Nope. I’m someone who likes to defy destiny.]

After all, his sister would not allow that to happen to him. He was positive that she would do everything she could to push him forward and make him successful.

‘This is the joy of having a helpful, rich sister. You bunch of losers just don’t understand,’ Ye Shiyun thought.
