Chapter 277 Original Sin 86
Yun Shuangshuang thought over and over, and the only way to deal with Liu Zhen without confronting Liu Man Ni directly was to target Liu Cheng.
First, for Liu Zhen, who is obsessed with Liu Cheng to a pathological degree, seeing Liu Cheng suffer would hurt more than cutting her own flesh, which could strike a psychological blow to Liu Zhen.
Secondly, although Liu Zhen has acting skills and is socially adept, she is too capricious. Each year, she spends only a small amount of time filming and accepting engagements. This laziness makes her a less than satisfactory employee for that entertainment company.
Liu Zhen’s ability to choose whatever role she wants and work as much as she wants each year is inseparable from Liu Cheng’s substantial financial support.
Many excellent directors struggle to secure sponsors, or they find sponsors often pushing in untalented actors and making arbitrary script changes, resulting in completed works that don’t align with their vision. Consequently, well-written scripts frequently end up being poorly adapted and receive less success than anticipated.
Not every director is like Li Ming, with enough wealth and connections to have people begging to fund their projects.
In such situations, Liu Zhen, who comes with significant funding, knows how to conduct herself, and doesn’t interfere with directing, remains highly popular. Even if she doesn’t film many projects annually, she’s still favored, and the company expends great effort to maintain her popularity.
But all of this has one major prerequisite—Liu Zhen has money! Without money, all of her privileges would vanish. It would be difficult for Yun Shuangshuang to deal with Liu Zhen when she has money.
Even if Yun Shuangshuang manages to tarnish Liu Zhen’s reputation, she could easily use her wealth to have someone continue casting her in roles or hire online supporters to clean up her image. Yun Shuangshuang didn’t want to waste energy playing a war of public opinion with Liu Zhen, as it would be inconsequential. A tarnished reputation doesn’t hurt if one is wealthy and carefree. It’s better to cut her Heavenly Ladder at the root and clean up afterward!
Now, Yun Shuangshuang thought carefully and felt that Liu Cheng wasn’t a good person either. Feng Jinyan was driven mad by Liu Zhen, and even if they weren’t in love or married, they did have a child together. Surely, as a husband, there should be some sense of responsibility!
