After Nie Zhen'er participated in [Returning to A Country Life], because of Xu Zhi Huan’s remarks, it can be said that she became notorious for being snobbish. Almost no one sent her their scripts again. Even if they did, they were horrible dramas and only invited her for the popularity she would bring



Cheng Tong remembered this and finally waited for the day when 《Cang Qing》 directed by Xu Zhi Huan was finished.



Cheng Tong directly handed the evidence to a newspaper agency she knew well, and immediately after Xu Zhi Huan posted his Weibo on the completion of the filming, the matter regarding Wei Ting's drug usage was exposed.



The photos were extremely high-quality with clear images of Wei Ting's face and what he was doing making it irrefutable.



When some fans of Wei Ting argued the pictures were photoshopped, a reputable technical professional appraised the photos and even confirmed there wasn’t any trace of such.



At this time, Cheng Tong posted a Weibo using her manager account, stating how Nie Zhen’er liked the role of the female lead more, so she auditioned with everyone else and didn’t go through any back doors. With Nie Zhen'er's strength, there was no need to go through the back door at all.



As soon as this statement came out, while some fans reshared it to Nie Zhen'er, there are still some haters who are reluctant to let this drop. They thought that Nie Zhen'er's acting skills were average and not that great and dissed Cheng Tong for praising one of her own artists.



Others linked Wei Ting’s drug use to Cheng Tong's Weibo, saying Cheng Tong was throwing stones at someone when they were down.



Cheng Tong directly replied back: Everyone should have zero tolerance for drug use. Not only do I want to throw stones, I even want to add coal to the fire, blacklisting Wei Ting forever!



With Wei Ting's matter being so rampant after 《Cang Qing》 was finished, the crew fell into an extremely awkward situation.



Someone went on Weibo to specifically find Xu Zhi Huan’s phrase that "Even if I have to change the female lead, I’ll never change the male lead,” and mockingly posted: Director Xu must hold on and not change the male lead, even if the male lead does drugs. [Dog head]



There are many people who follow the trend and taunt Xu Zhi Huan. The most intolerable thing in today's entertainment circle were drug addicts. Once discovered, this circle no longer tolerated them.



As long as it was a TV series, movie or web series that this person filmed, it will be removed from the shelves and banned from broadcasting.



It was fine for dramas that have been released, since their capital has been recovered. Xu Zhi Huan's 《Cang Qing》 only just finished filming and hasn’t been released before it could premiere.



Since Wei Ting is the male lead appointed by one of the investors, the other investors could only hold Xu Zhi Huan responsible when something went wrong. Ever since the Wei Ting incident broke out, Xu Zhi Huan hasn’t slept well for an entire week.



Xu Zhi Huan regretted more than anything that he didn’t agree to Nie Zhen'er's proposal. However, now it was too late. There was no medicine in the world for regret.



The only thing he didn't regret was he also dragged the flourishing Nie Zhen'er into the drama through Weibo, otherwise if Nie Zhen'er were to gain the upper hand, he would definitely get more ridicule.



Xu Zhi Huan even suspected Nie Zhen'er had leaked the news of Wei Ting's drug use.



But the newspaper company that released the news was under the Hong Ye Group, which was extremely influential. This newspaper was independent and self-willed and didn't accept any bribes at all, let alone helping a small actress with no background.



As Xu Zhi Huan fell into desperation, the Golden Lotus Film Festival started.



On the night of the awards ceremony, news that Nie Zhen’er was shortlisted for the best actress and eventually won the Golden Lotus Award directly ranked first on the hot search.



Fans of Nie Zhen'er cheered. On one hand, they expressed their excitement under the Weibo that Nie Zhen'er just posted, while they went to mock Xu Zhi Huan's Weibo on the other hand.



Even passers-by can't help but question: The snobbish little actress Xu Zhi Huan described became a Golden Lotus award winner, while the male lead who he’ll never change disappoints with his drug use. Maybe Director Xu should get his eyes checked?



Just when everyone thought things were coming to an end, the most recent Bai Rui Awards’ Best Actress was freshly released— —- it was still Nie Zhen'er!



Double Film Queen!



And the youngest one ever at that!



Nie Zhen'er is only twenty years old this year, and has already achieved results that most actresses will never get in their lifetime.



At this time, there were still haters commenting: Having good acting skills doesn’t mean that she’s not snobbish. Director Xu didn’t criticize her acting skill, but her snobbish attitude to begin with.



On the night after Nie Zhen'er won the Bai Rui Award, the program group of [Returning to A Country Life] released a teaser.



In the teaser, Nie Zhen’er was hardworking and a kind-hearted cook, simply the human form of cotton candy. Not only was she sweet, she had an even more delicious filling that  the international director Xia Zhong He couldn’t stop praising her.



In the teaser, due to Nie Zhen'er’s "Because I’ve been cooking since I was a child. Once you do something a lot of times, you’ll get better at it," reminded countless people of the child Zhen’er from [Goodbye for Thirty Days] five years ago.



@FeiFeiChong: Ah ah ah ah, it’s been five years! It turns out our cute and softhearted little Zhen’er has already become a double Film Queen. No wonder I thought this little beauty was so familiar, hahaha



@XuanFei: Gather here all LuanZhenCP! I think I might have seen Luan Qing Xiao's name in the teaser video of [Returning to A Country Life]! Waiting for the actual episode to be fed dog food! ! !



@AThreeYrOld: Our Zhen’er have been kind-hearted, hard-working and can cook since young. The same applies even when she grew up. I don't know where Zhen’er has offended Xu Zhi Huan to have him slandered for being snobbish, tsk!



@QiQiGeGe: This Xu Zhi Huan director posted on Weibo that he kicked out Zhen’er because she wanted to change the male lead. At the beginning, he said he wouldn’t change no matter what. What about now? Even if you want to change, it’s too late! He really picked a sesame seed over a watermelon, the world's biggest fool.



The permanent guests of [Returning to A Country Life] forwarded the teaser one after another.



@Luan: Come meet up at my house [Smile] // @NieZhen’er: [Facepalm] // @QiuXueEr: Miss the days when I slept in the same bed with Zhen’er and Qing Xiao_(:з」∠)_ // @YouSiZheng: Big Brother Yan, don't mention it, my saliva is about to slip out! @YanZhouMing: I missed Zhen’er's cooking



@MingMing: Ah ah ah ah! I finally found Qing Xiao's Weibo!



@XuanFei: Please keep being affectionate with Zhen’er! ! !



@LiLiLi: I think I know Qing Xiao’s identity, why else would she be able to mingle with the stars_(:з」∠)_



[Returning to A Country Life] went viral even before its broadcast.



At eight o'clock sharp Friday evening, the CatTV app released the first episode of [Returning to A Country Life].



In less than an hour, the viewer volume exceeded 10 million.



Each guest in the show has their own characteristics. When these attractive traits mix and collide, it greatly appeals to the audience and they couldn’t help but watch it again and again.



Another variety show planned by Hong Ye Film this year was also pushed ahead on the agenda. Luan Qing Xiao extended an invitation to You Si Zheng and Qiu Xue Er in line with the principle of not letting one’s fertile water flow into outsiders' fields.



Entertainment Circle’s Broker (Luan Qing Xiao): @Entertainment Circle’s Song King @Entertainment Circle’s Dance Queen, Hong Ye Film’s next idol group survival show [Sky Group 111] still lacks two young and influential tutors. Starting next month, it’ll start recording for two consecutive months. Si Zheng, Xue Er, are you guys free? Would you consider doing this?



Entertainment Circle’s Song King(You Si Zheng):? ? ? Damn! Qing Xiao is really acting as a broker! ! !



Entertainment Circle’s Dance Queen (Qiu Xue Er): No need to think about it! ! ! I accept! ! ! I want to be a mentor! ! !



Entertainment Circle’s Broker (Luan Qing Xiao): Xue Er, if you’re sure, come to Hong Ye Film to sign the contract tomorrow



Entertainment Circle’s Song King (You Si Zheng): I also have time! I want to be a mentor! Qing Xiao, look at me! ! !



Entertainment Circle’s Broker (Luan Qing Xiao): No problem, you guys can come tomorrow



Entertainment Circle’s Film King(Yan Zhou Ming): … … I’m open these days, Qing Xiao, why don’t you help me find a part-time job too?



Entertainment Circle’s Broker (Luan Qing Xiao): Zhen'er's new project just happens to lack a male lead. I’ll send you the script



You Si Zheng messaged Qiu Xue Er privately.



You Si Zheng: Xue Er! What exactly is Qing Xiao's identity? I'm only twenty years old, can I really be a mentor?



Qiu Xue Er: I'm also very curious. Why don't we go to Hong Ye Film tomorrow to ask the people there?



You Si Zheng: Good idea! Ok, we’ll do that!



Because Luan Qing Xiao's phone didn’t have the script and Nie Zhen'er was currently in the bathroom, she walked outside the bathroom door and called out to Nie Zhen'er, "Zhen’er, can you hear me?"



Nie Zhen'er shouted from within, "I can hear you."



"Isn't the movie you’re starring in lacking a male lead? I found you a capable male lead."



Nie Zhen’er immediately guessed, "Big Brother Yan?"



"En, Big Brother Yan happened to be out of work recently and wanted to find a part-time job. Since《The Legend of Ming Dynasty》 mainly revolves around the female lead with a minor role for the male lead, I’m going to send him the script."



"It would be great if Big Brother Yan could agree!" Nie Zhen’er's voice was obviously excited.



《The Legend of Ming Dynasty》 only made Nie Zhen'er the female lead a month ago and had found people for all the other supporting roles except the male lead as it was only a minor role but required high acting skills and no successful male actor wanted to come to just serve as a foil for Nie Zhen'er.



Previously, they hadn't really considered Yan Zhou Ming. If he hadn’t taken the initiative, Luan Qing Xiao wouldn't have mentioned it.



First off, the male lead’s role isn't likable and has few scenes. Secondly, she and Nie Zhen'er don't want Yan Zhou Ming to feel pressured into accepting due to their relationship.



After Luan Qing Xiao reported to Nie Zhen'er, she took Nie Zhen'er's phone and opened WeChat to find Yan Zhou Ming's avatar and sent the script.



Nie Zhen'er (Luan Qing Xiao): Take a look at the script first before considering whether you want the role or not



Yan Zhou Ming: Are you Qing Xiao?



Nie Zhen'er (Luan Qing Xiao): En



Yan Zhou Ming: … …I'd better skim the script first



As for why Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er were still together at midnight, we can discuss it later!



Once he finished the script, Yan Zhou Ming let out a sigh of relief.



Ever since he won Film King last year, he has yet to receive a script that he is satisfied with.



In this script here, the male lead had a gloomy personality and will switch to different attitudes towards different people. When facing the Prince Regent, he would be servile and cowardly, facing his teacher he was filial and respectful, toward his wife he acted alienated but polite. Only when facing the slaves, does the male lead dared to expose his dark side. It was only when he was torturing and humiliating the slaves in ways unimaginable would he be truly happy.



It is undeniable that the male lead is a wicked person.



However, he was also a very challenging role.



Yan Zhou Ming was tempted.



He likes to try different types of roles, but the director and investors didn’t give him any chances. As soon as he becomes popular for a certain role, the next role they find for him will definitely be similar.



Yan Zhou hasn't acted for over a year now because he didn't find a new role he wanted to try. Now the opportunity is in front of him, he doesn't want to let it go.



Yan Zhou Ming: Qing Xiao, has the director been decided yet?



Nie Zhen'er: Big Brother Yan, Qing Xiao is in the shower



Yan Zhou Ming replied in a daze: Oh, she’s in the shower



Nie Zhen’er: 《The Legend of Ming Dynasty》’s director is Xia Zhong He



Yan Zhou Ming: It turned out to be Director Xia! Zhen’er, when Qing Xiao finishes taking her shower, you can tell her that I’m extremely interested in the male lead of this movie.



Yan Zhou Ming has seen all of Xia Zhong He's movies. He had always hoped to be able to work with Xia Zhong He at least once, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come this soon.



Nie Zhen'er: Okay, Big Brother Yan, I'll tell her when she comes out



Yan Zhou Ming: En, you guys... …rest early



Nie Zhen’er: [Smile] Big Brother Yan, also rest early
