The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot-Chapter 383 - : 365 Not Deserved, Encounter with Ying Zijin at Imperial Capital University [2 Updates]
Chapter 383: 365 Not Deserved, Encounter with Ying Zijin at Imperial Capital University [2 Updates]
It was a science popularizer’s Weibo post, pinned to the top of the trending list.
Those who clicked into the trending topics could see it.
[@World of Knowledge V: Some people might not know about Ying Zijin’s capabilities, so let me give a simple rundown.
People with high IQs like her would directly enter institutions like the National Research Institute in the future.
If she manages to break into the top ten at the ISC international competition, organizations like the International Physics Center would recruit her.
The International Physics Center gathers the world’s top scientists who work on things like cosmic aircraft carriers, stuff we ordinary people can’t even get in touch with.
Her future will be brilliant; the world is her stage.
So there’s no need for her to quarrel with an actor. Really, just those two words, unworthy.]
The two words “actor” almost drove Ye Xi to the brink of collapse.
As an up-and-coming top star in the entertainment industry, she had never been belittled like this.
This was an outright insult.
“Chen Li, did you see that?” Luo Wenbin slammed the desk hard, growing even angrier, “Saying she’s ungrateful and defaming the Academic God, trying to harm the nation’s talent, how audacious, huh?!”
Chen Li’s face turned deathly pale.
Ye Xi’s body trembled again.
To be accused of harming national talent was a charge no one could withstand.
The entertainment industry was already controversial, and her adversaries would not miss this chance to make a big deal of it.
Even if the internet’s memory could turn over quickly, this stain on her reputation would never wash off.
Every once in a while, it would be brought up again to mock her.

She might even be permanently excluded from mainstream awards, and General Television Station wouldn’t invite her to any events.
“Do you think that because your name has ‘Li’ in it, your brain should be pear-shaped too?” Luo Wenbin pointed at Chen Li, berating her once more, “All your bonuses for this year are gone, and half a year’s salary too!”
Chen Li didn’t dare utter a word.
“Now, apologize to her immediately,” Luo Wenbin, still not over his anger, said, “Did you write the self-criticism?”
Ye Xi pursed her lips tightly, “Wrote, wrote it.”
“Then post it fast!” Luo Wenbin slammed the desk again, “Get out, don’t let me see the two of you.”
Far from acting high and mighty, Chen Li left with Ye Xi in a disheveled state.

Inside the office.
Luo Wenbin was still so furious his head hurt. He made a phone call and summoned the head of the public relations department.
After tapping on the desk, he asked, “Is there a way to deal with this?”
“We can only divert attention,” the head of PR wiped his sweat and said, “With the last plagiarism issue, we’ve gathered enough evidence. Even if we can’t severely damage Chuguang Media, we can keep ‘Song of the World’ from being released, turning their investment into nothing.”
‘Song of the World’ was a period drama adapted from a very popular novel, a major IP.
The author of this novel also had a large fanbase.
At that time, Skywalk Entertainment had also wanted to purchase the film and television rights, but the author did not heed them and instead sold them to Chuguang Media.
‘Song of the World’ was Chuguang Media’s key drama project for the year, set to air in May.
Months away from its release, ‘Song of the World’ already led the popularity index, leaving other dramas far behind.
“Hold off on this matter,” Luo Wenbin shook his head, “Do you think that this time ‘Youth 202’ can turn the tide without Chuguang Media’s involvement?”
“We can’t go against Chuguang Media head-on for now. We’ll wait for news from Era Media’s side,” he continued.
“Then, then we can only leak a scandal,” the head of PR blurted out with more sweat on his forehead, “two of the company’s artists have cheated on each other, and they both have the public image of loving spouses.”
After Luo Wenbin inquired about the names of the two artists, he said indifferently, “Let’s go with that.”
The two artists were second-tier actors whose popularity had waned.
However, thanks to a couple’s variety show they appeared on recently, they had regained some traffic.
The PR manager nodded and went to handle the matter.

At noon, Ye Xi posted on Weibo.
[@Ye Xi V: Sorry, I misunderstood an innocent person. I apologize. I never intended to hurt anyone. I’m truly sorry. This is my self-criticism; I will sincerely correct my actions.]
Accompanying the post was an image showing a three-thousand-word self-criticism.
[Admitting your mistakes and correcting them is what makes a good role model. Xixi, you’re the best!]
[Stop the blame; it was our fault. Xixi was implicated by us.]
