Chapter 365: There are still good people in your circle?
Now all the information Jiang Baige has is this hot search and those comments with similar content.
A major characteristic of gossip is: "true and false" and "real and fake". It is just like lying. Only when there are both true and false things can people be unpredictable.
And in this "unboxing", the true part is: Jiang Baige is the original author of this drama.
The false part is: Jiang Baige didn't need to go to the crew, she fell in love with Lu Tian, and pursued Lu Tian.
The part that is confusing between true and false is: Jiang Baige was a screenwriter in the crew.
There are also two possibilities when there are both true and false situations.
Possibility one: the person who leaked the information only knew part of the truth, so he cannot tell the whole truth.
Possibility two: it was intentional.
Just like the paparazzi clearly saw them arguing, but said they were in love; saw them part ways halfway, but also made up a story that she and Lu Tian were affectionate in the hotel, which was obviously for the purpose of creating topics, conflicts and attracting traffic.
This requires specific analysis of specific issues.
Because she still doesn't know who the person who leaked the information is.
But one thing is certain, whether it is "possibility one" or "possibility two", the person who leaked the information must be from the crew.
The crew is a mixed bag, but basically everyone likes to use acquaintances they have worked with before, so if Lao Ge is willing, it is not difficult to find this person.
What's more, Lao Ge and Brother Ning are so familiar with each other. If it was really the eldest lady who did this, how could they not get any news about it?
Jiang Baige didn't believe it.
Moreover, judging from the content of the revelations, there are too few true facts and too many false ones.
The most important thing is that the hot search terms that cost the most money were actually "written wrong", which is very unprofessional.
Because there is only one screenwriter for this drama, Xiao Feng.
Jiang Baige’s identity is “screenwriter consultant” and everyone on the set calls her consultant teacher.
Although it may not seem like a big deal to outsiders, if you are someone who follows the team throughout the process and has everyone's position and contact information, it is impossible for you to make a mistake subconsciously.
Unless the person who leaked the information obtained it second-hand.
The person who had first-hand information was just helping out on the crew and didn't even have a list of the crew members.
In this way, the person did not know that Jiang Baige was called by Lao Ge, so he followed the idea of the paparazzi's essay and thought that Jiang Baige took the initiative to join the crew because she fell in love with Lu Tian. This made sense.
It’s not that Jiang Baige is being too serious, but making up false information also requires logic.
If they are all loopholes and look fake at first glance, people won't believe it and then there is no point in exposing it.
But what she couldn't understand was why did they want to harm her?
Because this further "opens the box" and shows that the whole thing may not be as simple as paparazzi revelations.
The paparazzi got the attention and traffic, and that’s enough.
To be honest, their photos are not explosive. Because at that time, Jiang Baige was unilaterally quarreling. If you really take the whole photo, it would be more like a fight over a breakup than a passionate love affair.
The most worthy of speculation is the princess hug.
But there are no kissing photos, nor photos of them entering the hotel together, so it is not convincing enough.
Lu Tian is not famous enough, and she is not from the circle.
Besides, 2020 is a special period.
Entertainment gossip constitutes an occupation of public resources.
She didn't "fight back", so the paparazzi didn't need to hold on to her. Although this matter wouldn't fade away immediately, she would be scolded as a "sister-in-law" for a day or two, and Lu Tian would have another love affair, and that would be enough.
But suddenly "opening the box" for her now is equivalent to pushing public opinion to the forefront again, which is obviously not a gesture of reconciliation.
This shows that there are probably others behind the scenes fanning the flames.
And there are only two protagonists in this story: she and Lu Tian.
Is it directed at her?
Jiang Baige can pat her chest and guarantee: Impossible! It's not that she is self-deprecating, but she has almost no intersection with this circle.
There is no benefit in punishing her, and it costs so much money - rich people would not be so stupid.
So there is only one possibility: targeting Lu Tian.
Considering what Han Li said before, that Lu Tian was offending the wealthy lady...I'm afraid that the degree to which Lu Tian annoyed the other party is more serious than Han Li knows.
Of course, there is another possibility: Lao Ge is causing trouble.
The approval process for short dramas is simpler than that for satellite TV series and web dramas. Xiao Dong mentioned before that it might be released by the end of the year.
It is now the end of October, and it is not impossible for Lao Ge to use the scandal to build momentum.
But this problem is easy to solve.
Jiang Baige called Lao Ge directly on his cell phone.
The phone rang for half a minute before I picked it up: "Hey, Teacher Jiang, how come you have time to call me?"
"I came to thank you. I have received the fee for my last visit to the crew."
"Teacher Jiang, you are too polite. It's my duty, my duty..."
After the pleasantries, Jiang Baige got straight to the point: "There is one more thing I want to ask you."
"You say, you say."
"You know about Lu Tian's incident, right?" Jiang Baige said. Lao Ge fell silent, as quiet as death.
This is an attitude, but Jiang Baige pretended not to know: "Today I found that my personal information was exposed... I am an amateur, and I used to work as a migrant worker in the film and television industry for two days, but I didn't get in anyone's way, so there is no need to do this to me."
"Teacher Jiang, look at what you said... The entertainment industry is like this, always likes to make up stories and do unnecessary things..."
"But my personal information has been exposed, which has caused me trouble... Mr. Ge, you have great connections, so it wouldn't take much for you to find out who did it among the crew."
This time, Lao Ge refused to accept the compliment and quickly said, "Oh, Teacher Jiang, you think too highly of me. The crew has been disbanded for a long time, how can I find out..."
No matter how much I talked, he just refused.
It is obvious that they are reluctant to give up this little bit of popularity - when Lu Tian was surrounded by scandals but did not admit it, another set of rhetoric from fans to control comments was: Please pay more attention to his works.
What works does Lu Tian have now?
Isn’t it just the short drama that is about to be broadcast?
How could Lao Ge be willing not to use the free publicity data worker?
On the other hand, they also brainwashed Jiang Baige and shifted the topic to nonsense like "The current environment is bad, it's not easy to make money, we dare not offend people, and sometimes we can only endure it."
In short, he just refused to help.
At the end, you have to "raise the bar" and say something like "This is also your first adapted drama, you hope it will be good too."
Jiang Baige was so angry that she hung up the phone, so she just posted a message to her friends and temporarily enabled Lu Tian's reading permission.
[Traffic is paramount, and human life is cheap, right? No wonder people say your circle is doomed, and it really lives up to its reputation. 】
It was originally just a post to vent, and after posting it, Jiang Baige was still a little hesitant whether to delete it.
At this time, a message came on her mobile phone.
Xue Qinghui: [Bai Ge, I saw your trending search... Is there anything I can help you with? ]
Jiang Baige blinked her eyes, a little surprised: Hey, there are still good people?
