In an office in the Administration Building No. 1 of Tseung Kwan O Studios, Wang Xinwei, who is specifically responsible for this Miss Oriental beauty pageant, yelled and questioned.
Qiu Shuzhen was so frightened by this roar that she shrank back subconsciously, biting her lower lip in silence, and tears kept falling down her cheeks.
"Please, my eldest lady, let me know whether you have had plastic surgery or not. There are ways to deal with plastic surgery. If you haven't had plastic surgery, then say it out loud. You kept your mouth shut and didn't speak.
What should I do?" Wang Xinwei said with a headache. She is an old woman who joined LiTV in 1976. After the TV station was reorganized, she has stayed in Phoenix TV. She is an 11-year veteran employee of the TV station. Now, in addition to being responsible for some of the TV station's
In addition to special events, she occasionally works as a TV series producer for Oriental Television Company. Her husband is Li Zhaoxiong, one of the three heroes of Li's TV series back then.
"Sister Amy, I... I really... um... haven't had any plastic surgery. The reports... and the newspapers are all nonsense." Qiu Shuzhen defended herself while sobbing.
Wang Xinwei's face softened slightly and she asked: "Why are there rumors everywhere now that you had plastic surgery on your chin? That Huang Ying even said that you personally admitted it."
Qiu Shuzhen explained: "During the semi-finals, the newspapers said that my pointed chin was very beautiful. The other players jokingly asked me if I had had my chin shaved off. I said I had not had any bones shaved off my chin, but I had had a few stitches. Now look carefully.
You can still see a little bit of scars.”
"Scar?" Wang Xinwei looked closer, and after searching for a long time, she finally found a faint scar on Qiu Shuzhen's chin near her neck. It was difficult to spot it without looking at it from a close angle. She asked, "What's the reason for this scar?"
Coming?"
"When I was a kid, I broke my chin and had a few stitches." Qiu Shuzhen wiped her tears and said, "I really haven't had any plastic surgery. If you don't believe it, sister Amy, I still have photos of my childhood at home. The shape of my chin has never changed.
."
Wang Xinwei thought for a while and said: "Okay, I understand. You first go back and find photos of your childhood. The clearer the better."
Qiu Shuzhen stood up and walked outside. When she reached the door, she turned around and asked, "Sister Amy. They said that I will be disqualified from the beauty pageant. Is it true?"
Wang Xinwei consoled her: "Don't think so wildly. First, find your childhood photos."
"Oh, sister Amy. I'll leave first then." Qiu Shuzhen left in a irritable mood.
As soon as Qiu Shuzhen left, Wang Xinwei immediately went upstairs to Huang Xizhao's office and reported: "Mr. Huang, I asked more than ten people, and the matter was basically clarified. Qiu Shuzhen was a little carried away after becoming famous in the beauty pageant, and her relationship with other contestants
It’s not very good. The Huang Ying who broke the news to the newspaper probably said that Qiu Shuzhen’s chin had been under surgery out of jealousy after being eliminated.”
Huang Xizhao is 61 years old this year, but he is still in very good health. After putting out the cigarette in his hand, he said: "Whether it is true or false, there is not much difference now. We praised Qiu Shuzhen too much before, but now everyone
People in Hong Kong are saying that she is an artificial beauty, but they can’t explain it clearly.”
The thinking of Huang Xizhao's generation tends to be conservative. Since there has been a scandal on Qiu Shuzhen, whether it is true or false, it is definitely impossible to continue to participate in the beauty pageant. This is for the sake of the reputation of the entire Miss Oriental competition. If it is to save Qiu Shuzhen,
If the reputation of the Miss Oriental Beauty Contest is tarnished, it will definitely be more gain than loss.
It's not easy to use the opportunity to hype. Now most Hong Kong citizens have preconceived notions that Qiu Shuzhen had plastic surgery. The more you explain, the more they think you are covering up. Even if you publish photos of Qiu Shuzhen as a child, it will not be of much use at all.
Huang Xizhao sighed and said: "I advise Qiu Shuzhen to withdraw from the competition by herself, and then find her a role in a new series to compensate her."
Wang Xinwei felt that this was a pity. After all, so many publicity resources had been invested in Qiu Shuzhen in the early stage. She asked: "Do I need to explain this matter to Mr. Kang?"
"It's up to you," Huang Xizhao said, "Mr. Kang is busy solving the blocking order in Taiwan right now, so he probably doesn't have much time to worry about the beauty contest."
…
"Sister Amy, Sister Amy, I found the photos!" Qiu Shuzhen ran all the way with an old photo album in her hand, pushed open the door of the training room and lay beside the door, panting.
The beauty contestants who were practicing their dance stopped and turned to look at Qiu Shuzhen at the door one by one, giving her complicated looks such as regret, sympathy, jealousy, ridicule, and gloating.
Wang Xinwei just took over the responsibility for the Miss Oriental beauty pageant this year. She was involved in every process from the early preparations to the registration. The contestants she carefully cultivated had to be released due to rumors, which made Wang Xinwei feel particularly bad. She rushed
Qiu Shuzhen waved and said: "Azhen, come here, I have something to tell you."
Qiu Shuzhen felt that Wang Xinwei's tone was wrong, and she immediately had a bad feeling. She forced a smile and walked over, opened the album and said: "Sister Amy, look, my photos from the age of one to now are all on it. I
My chin has never changed."
"I know you are innocent," Wang Xinwei whispered to her, "but the TV station also has difficulties. You'd better give up participating in the finals. I will recommend you to sign with Oriental Entertainment Agency..."
"Snapped!"
The old photo album in Qiu Shuzhen's hand fell to the ground. She was so shocked by Wang Xinwei's words that her mind went blank. She turned around and walked out in a daze. She couldn't hear anyone calling from behind.
Suddenly, Qiu Shuzhen tripped over a stone on the roadside and almost fell down. Only then did she regain consciousness and found that she had walked outside the film and television city without knowing it.
Qiu Shuzhen signed up for Miss Hong Kong last year, but she didn't go to the screening interview because she was ill, so she missed the opportunity. This year she signed up for the Miss East beauty pageant with the mentality of giving it a try, and she became famous in the semi-finals.
After that, Phoenix TV spared no effort to package and promote her, which gave Qiu Shuzhen a sense of vanity and happiness of becoming a big star.
Now, Qiu Shuzhen is like a Cinderella who has been beaten back to her original shape. She lost her beloved red dancing shoes at 12 o'clock in the morning. Suddenly, she feels that life has lost its meaning.
Walking to the beach in a daze, Qiu Shuzhen seemed to be tired from walking. She squatted down and hugged her knees with her arms. She buried her head and began to sob quietly. In the end, she cried more and more sadly, and her sobs turned into howls.
After crying for a long time, Qiu Shuzhen wiped away her tears and stood up. Due to the lack of energy and blood from squatting for too long, she almost fell down when her vision went dark.
After calming down for a while, Qiu Shuzhen walked towards the accommodation area of the film and television city. She was going to pack her luggage in the apartment and go home. As for Wang Xinwei's talk about arranging for her to sign a contract with Oriental Entertainment Company, Qiu Shuzhen didn't hear it at all. At that time, she was thinking
It's all about withdrawal.
It was already past 6 o'clock in the evening when we returned to the apartment. The other beauty contestants were resting in the room after dinner and would go back to dance practice in half an hour.
There were three other girls living with Qiu Shuzhen. When they saw Qiu Shuzhen coming back with a disappointed look on her face, a girl named Liao Yuechen took out a photo album from her bag and said, "Azhen, this is what you dropped."
"Thank you." Qiu Shuzhen forced a smile and went straight back to her room to pack her luggage.
The other two roommates crowded into the living room and whispered with Liao Yuechen: "Is A-Zhen really going to withdraw from the competition?"
"So there's still time left? We're all packing our things."
"I just saw photos of her when she was a child, and it seems like she never had plastic surgery."
"Oh, she is really unlucky. If she hadn't done something like this, she would definitely have won the beauty pageant championship."
"That Huang Ying is so abominable. He spread rumors even after he lost the election. It is really harmful to others."
"I heard that A-Zhen can sign a contract with Oriental Entertainment Company."
"There are so many contracted actors with Dongyu. There are only a dozen or twenty popular ones. If Zhen can't be a beauty pageant champion, what's the use of signing with Dongyu?"
"That's true. We will probably be little actors in the future."
"That's not necessarily true. The most popular female star in Hong Kong now is Hong Gu. She only got the fourth place in the Miss Hong Kong competition."
"You compare yourself with Hong Gu. Mr. Kang started praising Hong Gu seven years ago. It would be strange if she is not popular."
"Maybe Mr. Kang will also praise me."
"Just daydream."
"Haha, I think this little prodigal is getting angry."
"..."
The three beauty contestants who entered the finals were laughing and playing together in the living room. The laughter reached Qiu Shuzhen's ears, which made her feel even more lonely.
"Dong dong dong..."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the three girls playing in the living room stopped. One of them ran to open the door. Seeing a strange man standing outside the door, she asked: "Hello, who are you looking for?"
The strange man asked back: "Is Miss Qiu Shuzhen here?"
"Here," the girl who opened the door turned and shouted to Qiu Shuzhen's bedroom, "Azhen, someone is looking for you!"
Qiu Shuzhen zipped up the suitcase, walked to the living room and asked, "Who is looking for me?"
Liao Yuechen pointed toward the door: "That gentleman."
The strange man at the door also saw Qiu Shuzhen, nodded and smiled at her: "Hello, Miss Qiu, Mr. Kang asked me to take you to see him. If it is convenient for Miss Qiu, we can leave right away."
"I don't know Mr. Kang." Qiu Shuzhen was very upset. She was not in the mood to go with a strange man. She said impatiently and returned to her room.
"Mr. Kang?" The three girls in the living room looked at each other.
Before they could ask, Qiu Shuzhen had already ran back to the living room from the bedroom and asked the man at the door: "Who did you say was looking for me just now?"
The man repeated: "Mr. Kang Jianfei!"
"Wait a minute!" Qiu Shuzhen ran back to her bedroom, took out her makeup mirror and started to tidy up her personal appearance, but her eyes were red from crying and she couldn't hide them with any method.
But the living room was already exploding, and the three girls started chattering again.
"Did I hear that right?"
"It's really Mr. Kang, I heard it too."
"A-Zhen is going to be prosperous this time."
"Do you think A-Zhen will appear in Mr. Kang's new film?"
"It's possible."
"When the time comes, let A-Zhen put in a good word in front of Mr. Kang, and maybe we can get two supporting roles for us."
"My requirements are not high, as long as I can have one line."
