571 The scene

The surrounding media was watching this scene. Some of the people who were sitting in their seats, chatting or playing with their phones stopped what they were doing.

Everyone held their breath as they looked at the electronic screen behind the auctioneer. The words ‘2 million’ appeared next to the manuscript.

Even though many of the people present did not lack the two million Yuan, they were still shocked by the dispute between the two top Chinese actresses.

If Tao cen also spoke up now, the matter would be blown up and both parties would be in a difficult position.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Tao cen did not let down the expectations of those who wanted to watch the show. He smiled and raised the sign in his hand again.

When Jiang se raised her sign, gasps could be heard around her.

However, by the time Tao cen raised his sign, there was no longer any sound. Everyone looked at this scene in silence. The sound of cell phones secretly taking photos in the venue was particularly striking in such a quiet and strange situation.

Things were getting out of control, and all the invited media outlets were probably taking pictures of this scene. Many people could even imagine the headlines of the major media outlets tomorrow: the grace of the times ” charity banquet, two top female celebrities of the century Galaxy were fighting!

The organizer of ” the grace of the times ” had a helpless look on his face. At this point, if the dispute between the two female celebrities who had been invited were to blow up, it would not be good for either of them.

“Brother Shao, what should we do?”

Several staff members of the style of the times looked at Shao cunjin, the chief editor. Shao cunjin’s face was solemn. The host on the stage announced Tao cen’s bid, ”

“Two million two hundred and fifty thousand!”

“Brother Shao, we can’t let them continue bidding.”

This had already lost its original purpose of charity and turned into a battle of pride and status between two female stars.

if Jiang se wants to make another bid … Shao cunjin looked at the auction hall and felt a slight headache.”Call rohault from century Galaxy.”

Shao cunjin was having a headache. Being able to invite two top female celebrities, Tao cen and Jiang se, to tonight’s charity banquet should have been a happy occasion for ” the grace of the times. however, after this incident, the fans of both parties might be a little angry at the organizer.

Both of them belonged to century Galaxy. They hoped that the management company would step in and suppress the conflict between the two. At least, it would not erupt at this time.

This matter was clearly disadvantageous to Jiang se. Tao cen’s actions had put her on a pedestal. Unless she stopped in time, public opinion would be against her once the news spread.

Century Galaxy had the intention of promoting Jiang se again. She had been doing well in the past few years. If anything were to happen to her, not only would century Galaxy not let the matter go easily, but most importantly, Jiang se had a Crown Prince behind her. She had personally said that she was engaged. That would be the most troublesome thing!

While the staff of ” the grace of the times ” were in a terrible fix, mo Anqi, who was next to Jiang se, was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears. This was because she saw that Jiang se had already picked up her cards again.

Mo Anqi had been by Jiang SE’s side for many years. She had been taking care of her ever since she left the temple. From Jiang SE’s little actions, mo Anqi could easily guess that she was going to raise the board again.

“Sese has always been calm. Why did she suddenly burst out this time?”

Mo Anqi was so anxious that her forehead was covered in sweat. She whispered to Xiao Zhang, who was beside her, to relieve the pressure in her heart.

“Tao cen is forcing her on purpose.”

Tao cen had done this to show the media how Jiang se had competed with her as a latecomer and snatched her ‘things’.

Xia Chaoqun’s expression was already very serious, but under mo Anqi’s worried gaze, what she was afraid of still happened.

After the host shouted ‘2.25 million, is there anyone else?’, Jiang se raised her paddle again.

At that moment, even though the lights in the venue were not glaring, mo Anqi could feel the gazes of the people around her. They were all fixed on Jiang se.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Jiang se. When she raised her sign, some of the celebrities in the industry seemed to be watching a good show. As they watched the two female celebrities fight over the three pieces of Amadeus ‘manuscript, many people who were jealous of Jiang se wished that she could be more impulsive, blow up the matter, and fall under the criticism of the public.

Jiang se had risen too quickly in the past few years. She was also very popular. There were not many scandals about her, but opportunities came one after another.

The endorsement was always the best. Back then, fedarer’s watch endorsement had already made many people in the same industry jealous.

“Two million five hundred thousand!”

The host on stage was a little surprised. No matter how precious Amadeus’s manuscript was, the price was way higher than that even if it was a charity auction.

“Sese.”

Liu Ye turned around in shock. He did not want to get involved in this matter. After all, he had always thought that Jiang se was a calm and intelligent person who knew when she should stand up for her.

Tao cen’s bidding tonight was clearly a provocation. Her motive was too obvious. Jiang se should not have continued to compete with her. If she did, she would be the one to suffer. She should have guessed Tao cen’s motive. Why did she still do it?

Could it be that she was confident that she had someone backing her up? or was it as Jiang se had said? she was already engaged and her wedding was in a year’s time. She did not plan to continue in this industry in the future. She did not care whether her reputation was good or bad, whether the public cursed her or not, or which side the public opinion sided with?

“You should stop filming.”

Liu Ye rarely spoke to others in such a tone. Having been in this line of work for a long time, he knew that he should keep some things to himself. Some things should not be said even to friends, no matter how good they looked on the surface.

Moreover, at his age, he understood what mutual respect was. Everyone was an adult, and he had no right to point fingers at others and think what they should do.

However, things were different now. If Jiang se continued to argue and the matter was exposed, Jiang se might lose some of the People’s favorability. He recalled the first time he worked with Jiang se at the scene of ” rescue mission “. She was a girl who did not speak much but was serious.

Later on, in ” the devil “, she personally disguised herself as ‘Zhang Yuqin’ to convince herself.

The two of them had worked together in two movies. Jiang se was indeed a very good actress. Among the female celebrities Liu Ye had worked with, other than her talent and looks, which were given to her by the heavens, her hard work and determination were also a huge part of it.

He really couldn’t bear to see an actress like her be ruined by such a ‘matter’, so Liu Ye didn’t act out of character and said to her, ”

“You should understand that Tao cen intentionally provoked you with what happened tonight.”

In the past, he rarely said good or bad things about others. When it came to certain things in the entertainment industry, he was just a bystander.

Whatever conspiracies and tricks, if one didn’t suffer losses and fall for them, one would never know the depth of the tricks.

However, Liu Ye truly felt pity for Jiang se. He could not bear to see a girl like her be destroyed in such a scheming battle.

“There’s no benefit for you to continue fighting.”

From the corner of his eye, he could already see Xia Chaoqun crossing his arms. He also saw Tao cen, who was seated in the first row on the other side of the room. The light above her head shone down, making the cheerful smile on her face exceptionally striking.

The members of the media in the distance were watching this scene intently. It was as if they had expected Jiang se to make a fool of herself in tomorrow’s big news. They looked like they were waiting to watch a good show, which made Liu Ye’s gaze even sharper.

“If you take the music score and say that you like it, 2.5 million is enough to buy other things.”

He paused and continued, ”

if you’re trying to get into Steinway’s good books or even get their endorsement, it’s enough to show your attitude.

The people from Steinway were sitting on the east side of the VIP area, which was specially opened up for them by the organizer. Beside a white piano, the person-in-charge of Steinway’s China region, Mr. CapMan, had a serious expression on his face.

It was obvious that the manuscript that Steinway had taken out had been contested for until now, and it had become the result of a battle between two top Chinese female celebrities. Even though the price had exceeded Steinway’s original expectations, CapMan found it difficult to be happy.

He might feel that the original meaning of the manuscript had been blasphemed. If Jiang se continued to argue in her fit of anger, it would only become a ‘disgraceful’ action in the eyes of many.

In the media stands, Tao Tao was so nervous that she was trembling all over, almost losing her grip on her phone.

At this moment, her hands and feet were cold, and her throat was bitter.

Initially, she did not need to appear in the interview tonight. However, when Dragon travel Studios found out that Jiang se, Tao cen, Liu Ye, and the others would be attending the charity party at the same time, the managing editor of the company sent Tao Tao out as a precaution. He also hoped that there would be some big news at such an event.

With several big exclusive rights released by Dragon Travel Studio, the company’s development was getting better and better. The boss jokingly called Tao Tao a ” Lucky Star ” and believed that she had the potential to dig up big news.

When she was sent out, she even jokingly said that tomorrow’s front page headline would be in Tao Tao’s hands.

When Tao Tao came out, she was still thinking that there would not be any big news at an event like this, other than being able to see her idol Jiang se.

Who knew that the boss’s words would come true. The news that was released this time might cause an explosive effect tomorrow!

Her phone kept vibrating, and messages came one after another, all from her boss.

The boss was also one of the invited guests tonight, so he should have witnessed such a scene.

Tao Tao knew better than anyone else the consequences of the media exposing Jiang se and Tao cen’s dispute.

She felt a little hopeless. However, because she was biased toward Jiang se, she suddenly felt an inexplicable hatred for Tao cen.

Jiang se had wanted the music score in the beginning. It was clearly Tao cen who had interfered. However, due to Tao cen’s ‘senior’ status, the final outcome might be disadvantageous to Jiang se.

“Taozi, is Liu Ye trying to persuade Jiang se?”

Su Min, who came out of the Dragon Travel Studio at the same time, leaned close to Tao Tao’s ear and asked excitedly.

Liu Ye was well-known for his self-preservation nature and rarely meddled in other people’s business.

He maintained a good relationship with many of the industry’s big shots on the surface, but he did not have a deep friendship with many of them. Now that he was giving Jiang se some advice, did it mean that in Liu Ye’s heart, Jiang se was a friend of a different weight?

Tao Tao could not hear any of this because she saw the cold expression on Jiang SE’s manager, Xia Chaoqun’s face. She saw Tao cen’s smile that was a little sweet. She saw Tao cen raise her sign again. three million!

Three million.

The price of these manuscripts had been raised to a price several times higher than their original value. Tao Tao’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the figure. She could only pray that Jiang se would stop competing for them.

She was still fantasizing that someone would come to Jiang SE’s rescue and suppress the number. She hoped that the two female celebrities would not argue over the price of the manuscript.

“I understand, brother Liu.”

Jiang se turned around. She was well aware of Tao cen’s thoughts and the unfavorable situation for her tonight. She also understood what Xia Chaoqun, mo Anqi, Liu Ye, Tao cen, and everyone else who attended the charity banquet tonight thought of her and Tao cen’s bid for the manuscript.

Her eyes were clear and sparkling. As she smiled, the corners of her eyes curved into a small arc. I’m aware of your reminder.

“Stop taking pictures, Sese.”

Liu Ye heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she did not look like she had lost her mind due to her impulsiveness. There seemed to be something brewing in her eyes that he could not understand, but it made Liu Ye instinctively feel that something was amiss.

Jiang se was about to speak again when the phone in her handbag vibrated.

She revealed an apologetic smile, opened her bag, and took out her phone. During this time, there were still messages sent continuously. They were all personally sent by Luo Yin. The company will compensate you with resources.

“Sister Xia, Huahua.”

Mo Anqi sounded like she was about to cry. Jiang se had been working so hard all these years. It would be a pity if her reputation was tarnished if she fought with Tao cen now.

“Please stop Sese,”

Xia Chaoqun had already noticed Jiang se taking out her phone. It seemed like there was no need for her to persuade him. Someone from the company might have already made a move.

Only the company’s chairman, Luo Yin, could hold the ground at this time.

Jiang se had just renewed her contract with century Silver River. Luo Yin had even given her 0.5% of the shares to keep her. Clearly, he thought highly of Jiang se. Luo Yin would not want Jiang SE’s reputation to go down the drain.

But could he stop her? This was the first time Xia Chaoqun had such a thought.

She had worked with Jiang se for many years. Jiang se was very obedient to her when it came to certain matters, whether it was career planning or etiquette classes.

Jiang se would obey whatever he arranged for her. When she asked Jiang se to go to bed, Jiang se would persevere. When she asked Jiang se to learn the piano, Jiang se would learn it. When she asked Jiang se to attend fitness classes and combat classes, no matter how tiring it was, Jiang se would listen.

However, she still had her own personality.

From a certain perspective, she and Xia Chaoqun were the same kind of people. They also had their own stubbornness.

However, because of a small matter and some pride, Jiang se lost her cool after being provoked by Tao cen. Had he expected too much from her back then, or had he been wrong?

Xia Chaoqun pursed his lips. The emcee was still asking, ”

three manuscripts for Adeus, three million. Going once for three million, going twice. The host smiled and asked, ”

“Are there any more bids?”

The studio was unusually quiet, and the people from ‘the grace of the times’ quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Ye also heaved a sigh of relief. Mo Anqi and Tao Tao, who were in the media stands, slowly loosened their clenched fists.

Jiang se picked up her phone and read Luo Yin’s message.”The company will compensate you with resources.”

She slowly smiled.

She was not a Princess and did not need the protection of a Knight.

She didn’t need anyone to compensate her for what she wanted. She could reach out and take it herself.

She picked up the board and raised it again in front of everyone.

“Five million!”

There was a commotion in the venue.

From the extreme silence just now to the next second, everyone was whispering in discussion. It seemed like it only took a moment.

A moment ago, Tao Tao was still smiling in relief, but the next second, her eyes widened. She let go of her phone and covered her mouth with both hands.

“Five million!”

The host couldn’t help but repeat the number as well, obviously to confirm it, afraid that he had seen it wrong.
