Chapter 684 The dead girl's inner demon is Boss Wei
In the entertainment industry, there are countless grievances.

Men fight with women, women fight with women, actors fight with directors, directors fight with directors, apprentices fight with masters, artists fight with companies or platforms.

Some fight for resources, some fight for box office, some fight for pride, some fight for money, and some fight simply because they dislike each other.

There are so many grudges and people who never talk to each other again, but few can reach a reconciliation.

The grudge between Wei Yang and the dead girl is not that complicated.

Si Yatou started out as a screenwriter and producer, and Wei Yang also made money as a screenwriter, actor, and film and television producer in his early days.

The first time the two of them competed was when "My Love from the Star" and "Beauty's Secret" were released at the same time. The two leading actors, Lin and Fan, were not on good terms, and for the purpose of hype and marketing, and both Wei Yang and Si Yatou were not interested in it, they started to "fight".

That time, "My Love from the Star" was a huge success, Wei Yang became a top star, and also successfully became popular as a screenwriter.

Afterwards, Wei Yang and Dead Girl, as the two most famous and best-performing screenwriters and producers on the small screen, had many duels.

After that, it was "The East Palace" and "Palace Lock Heart Jade" by Si Yatou.

The apparent performance of "Eastern Palace" is better, but "Palace" is not bad either, and it made Da Mimi a popular first-line actress.

It can be said that the dead girl lost, or it can be said that it was a draw, but this was also the best result the dead girl had ever achieved against Wei Yang.

"The Hidden Heart" met "My Sunshine", and it was a miserable defeat!

"Palace 2" met "Joy of Life" and suffered a miserable defeat!

After that, Si Yatou's dramas almost all ran away when she saw Boss Wei, and in fact he didn't want to compete with Wei Yang in "Palace 2". But he was restricted by the platform at that time and was put on the stage. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and let others give him a beating.

After "Joy of Life", Wei Yang's position on the small screen can be said to be invincible.

In addition, with the company's entry into the film industry, Blue Whale has developed brilliantly and even laid out a platform. The dead girl and Boss Wei are no longer on the same level, and no one will compare them together anymore.

Even most of the other key works of Blue Whale, which were its main competitors later, ended in failure.

In the confrontation back then, especially in the early stages, the Si Yatou and Wei Yang were quite fierce in their arguments, using sarcastic remarks and even directly swearing at each other.

In the eyes of many people, they are mortal enemies. In fact, there is very little interaction between the two sides.

The door of Blue Whale is almost closed to Huanyu, the team of Dead Girl. However, because Blue Whale has more power and more people, Huanyu has had some cooperation with it, but it did not involve core personnel.

The only time the two sides cooperated was when they dealt with Huanrui last time. The dead girl had a conflict with Huanrui, and when Boss Wei took action, she cheered him on and added insult to injury to Huanrui.

After the Huanrui incident, the relationship between the two sides eased to a certain extent, but that was all.

As I said, it’s not a fight to the death, but we will never have any contact with each other again.

It is also because of this that the recognized enemies suddenly reconciled, the dead girl officially announced that she would join PPTV for her new work, and even the original title of the drama "Yanxi Palace" was changed to "Story of Yanxi Palace" which is similar to "Strategy of the Ming Palace", which is definitely a sensation in the entertainment industry.

Topics related to this incident almost dominated the hot lists of Weibo, Zhihu, and Douban.

There are endless speculations and discussions about why the two sides reconciled, and various statements and conspiracy theories have emerged.

But in fact, it is not as complicated as outsiders say.

In essence, whether it is Wei Yang or the dead girl, they are all businessmen, and businessmen put profit first. Although they are "mortal enemies", in fact, the two sides do not have any unsolvable grudges.

Strictly speaking, it's at most just a few trash words exchanged, and it has a certain hype nature.

But later on, both sides were put on the spot, and since there was really no need for cooperation, the relationship became increasingly strained.

The dead girl wanted to bow her head a long time ago, especially since PPTV was so powerful and had already become the largest platform in the industry, her desire to bow her head and even cooperate became stronger and stronger.

No matter how powerful Blue Whale was in the past, we were all competitors, so we had to do it anyway. Now that Boss Wei is playing with the platform, you would be crazy to continue to compete with him.

In the past two years, the dead girl has shown goodwill to PPTV or its boss Wei more than once, even flattering him.

Wei Yang's opinion of the dead girl actually didn't change much. He still didn't like her very much and even felt a little disgusted.

But in his current position, he cannot do things based solely on his own preferences; he needs to have some vision.

Si Yatou has many problems, but it is indeed one of the most profitable production teams in the industry. The same goes for Liu Tianxian. PPTV has no shortage of such teams, but it does not want Si Yatou to cooperate with other platforms to create threats to itself.

Since the other party wants to reconcile and join, and is taking a very humble attitude, there is no reason for PPTV to reject it and push it to other competitors.

When the little girl showed her worth, the petty-minded Boss Wei also showed generosity for once.

Things are just that simple, not as complicated as outsiders think.

Huanrui and Blue Whale also had a lively competition back then, and they collaborated on "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and "Zhu Xian".

Although the latter's cooperation was forced, it must be admitted that there were some benefits to following Blue Whale.

The benefits are high enough, and he can use people like Wen Zhang and Zheng Kai who had some minor conflicts with Boss Wei before.

However, they do not have the ability to leverage enough interests to impress Boss Wei to reconcile.

Those who were truly sentenced to "death" by Boss Wei were people like Feng Kuzi and Da Hei Niu who caused trouble for people around him, or traitors like Lin Gengxin who hurt his heart. There is no possibility of reconciliation for such grudges.

Boss Wei has a vision, but it’s not that big.

Including the dead girl, most of the efforts are just to win him over and cooperate to make money. Whether they treat him as their own or not is a matter of opinion.

The silly girl herself knew that she might not really follow PPTV wholeheartedly.

But as long as Wei Yang is powerful, his platform and channel resources are good enough, and he can make enough money, and there are no problems, he will honestly serve as Boss Wei's lackey.

There is no hatred or love in the world without reason. Sometimes it is enough for everyone to just keep it tacit.

"Story of Yanxi Palace" is the dead girl's "letter of surrender", specifically used to deal with "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

The dead girl is also very smart.

Boss Wei is in a high position now and he has to pay attention to his image. Blue Whale is the leader and PPTV is the platform. Many things and words are difficult to handle and say.

But he is different. He has been used to the gossips over the years. He ranks among the top in the entertainment industry with the most scandals. He doesn't care about most of the things that others care about.

So the dead girl quickly found her position - mad dog!
Bite "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" hard, even if it doesn't kill it, it will be disgusting, and make the opponent look humiliated, which is the final battle of PPTV's summer strategy. Find faults and criticize peers, hype and lead the rhythm!
This is the girl's strongest point. Before "Story of Yanxi Palace" was officially launched, he had already started to make sarcastic remarks about "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

I have to say that this little girl is quite capable to have been able to stir up trouble in the entertainment industry for so many years. She immediately found several flaws in Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace.

First, although the investment in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" was huge, the proportion of film remuneration was too high, and the production costs were greatly diluted.

In contrast, their "Story of Yanxi Palace" has very few popular actors and most of the funds were invested in production, which is very conscientious.

Secondly, the history of "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" is pure bullshit. It is obvious that Empress Nara, the wife of Emperor Qianlong, was the one he hated the most, and the degree of discord between the emperor and the empress was rare in history. However, the original novel made it into true love and forced an adaptation.

Looking back at their "Story of Yanxi Palace", although we dare not say that it completely follows history, Concubine Ling was indeed Emperor Qianlong's favorite concubine and was extremely honored and favored, which is in line with historical logic.

Thirdly, even before Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace was released, it was promoted in various ways, as if it was going to beat Zhen Huan and crush Joy of Life.

The success of any work must be tested by the audience. Producers must maintain a cautious and humble attitude. Blind optimism will lead to failure.

The dead girl was the first to fire the salvo on Weibo, which instantly topped all the hot searches, with controversy flying everywhere, but also attracted a lot of attention.

You know, "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" is a real hot project with high popularity. "Story of Yanxi Palace" is much inferior in comparison.

Netizens scolded the girl for being arrogant and provocative, but they did not notice that the popularity of "Story of Yanxi Palace" has skyrocketed.

Even many netizens who were not originally interested in this drama are planning to watch "Story of Yanxi Palace", find faults to criticize it, or go back and compare it with "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace".

This can be seen from the number of [pre-ordered new works] for "Story of Yanxi Palace" on PPTV. With just one post from that dead girl, at least millions of users make reservations every day.

"Tsk, tsk."

Even Boss Wei was moved after listening to PPTV's report. Apart from anything else, this damn girl was really good at making false claims and hyping things up.

If it were an enemy, he would probably be disgusted to death, but if this mad dog was one of our own.

I haven’t told you yet, it’s pretty cool.

The most important thing is that this guy was sensible and directed his criticism at "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", so it became a conflict between the two crews and did not involve the two platforms.

If "Story of Yanxi Palace" fails, he deserves to be criticized for his arrogance and ignorance. As for him, we will try our best not to implicate PPTV.

And if he wins his bet and "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" fails, this mad dog can cooperate with PPTV to bite the owner of "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", Penguin.

To be honest, Wei Yang now understands why the Hunan Provincial TV station likes to use the dead girl.

What a good dog!
Of course, since it is a mad dog, it can bite others, so there is no saying that it may bite yourself one day, so we still need to be vigilant.

In this regard, Wei Yang and PPTV are more confident than the Hunan Provincial TV Station, because they have enough elite thugs to ensure that the public reputation will not be distorted by the mad dog, and they will even beat it up if it dares to show its teeth. After being beaten many times, the mad dog will sober up and be honest.

Compared to Boss Wei's slightly appreciative attitude, Zhao Liying does not like the dead girl's approach and is relatively conservative about "Story of Yanxi Palace".

“Do you really think this drama can beat Story of Yanxi Palace?”

Wei Yang smiled and said, "I don't like that dead girl, and I also dislike and resent many of his works. But I have to admit that he is a first-class expert in tailoring highlight plots and understanding the audience's psychology."

"He knows what the audience likes to watch and what they enjoy watching, and can grasp the essence of a cool drama."

"Palace Lock Heart, Legend of Lu Zhen, New Smiling Proud Wanderer, Beauty's Rival in Palace, all of them are very popular and even blockbuster, and their achievements, popularity and discussion are high. You can say that he has a bad character, or that he has produced many bad dramas, but you can't say that he is bad."

"It can even be said that this person's biggest weakness is his poor character and personality, which makes it difficult for him to win people's hearts, and the quality of his works is not guaranteed, which fluctuates. Otherwise, he would be a great rival of Blue Whale."

"I've watched a few episodes of the finished product of Story of Yanxi Palace. It has a strong Mary Sue vibe, and some of its settings and plots imitate or plagiarize The Palace of Rebirth. But it nails the word 'cool'. This kind of cool drama is more effective against Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace than any other high-quality, high-scoring drama."

Zhao Liying seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly smiled: "If he heard what you said, would he be moved to tears?"

Wei Yang: "..."

Zhao Liying smiled maliciously: "Really? They say you almost made him lose his mind. I guess you hold a very high position in his heart. If he knew that you think so highly of him, you can imagine how he feels. I'm afraid he would regard you as his life confidant."

Zhao Liying's words are not groundless.

Facing an opponent who has been defeated time and again, and to whom he will never be able to match in his entire life, the feelings in his heart are probably very complicated, and it may even become an obsession.

If you know that the other person has a good opinion of you and has affirmed some of your advantages and strengths, it will be a great achievement for yourself.

There is a saying that a man longs for his father's approval throughout his life, but he also longs for recognition from his enemies and idols.

Zhao Liying was once Liu Shishi's pursuer, and she has always wanted to prove that she is qualified to work hand in hand with Wei Yang. She can more or less understand the mentality of that dead girl.

"..."

Wei Yang followed Zhao Liying's words and recalled the dead girl's thoughts, and couldn't help but shudder.

"Don't disgust me. You told me you were scared."

This kind of plot is okay in novels and animations, and he also enjoys having a partner like Zhao Liying, but forget about that dead girl.

He didn't want a man to dream about him every day, not to mention that the girl had problems with her sexual orientation.

Zhao Liying, however, was very playful: "Why don't you call him to cheer him up? He might get so excited that he'll risk his life to fight the penguin."

"You're really willing to take risks."

Wei Yang pinched Zhao Liying's no longer chubby face. He didn't know when it started, but President Zhao completely gave up the sweet girl style and started going for the wife and queen style.

This change in style makes her look better and more charming than before, but the feel of her face is not as good as before.

Zhao Liying dodged Wei Yang's hand and said with a smile: "Your baby son is almost one year old. In two years, he will go to school. You have to save more money. You have to make sacrifices. The child will understand when he grows up."

If the other person is a beautiful woman, Zhao Liying will definitely not make this joke, and even if he is a handsome guy, she will not gamble.

But forget about the dead girl. Even if Wei Yang became a vegetarian, chanted Buddhist scriptures, and became a monk, it would have nothing to do with him.

Dead girl: “…”

What you are saying is really dirty...
