CHAPTER 805: CHAPTER 795: SU LINLIN LEAVES THE INDUSTRY AND FILLS OUT HER COLLEGE APPLICATION

The winds in the entertainment industry change terrifyingly fast.

The countryside-style slow-life variety show "Taoyuan Village" has maintained high popularity since its premiere, and the first two episodes have already amassed a considerable number of loyal viewers.

The permanent guests on the show are all quite presentable, and when it comes to being a guest on this program, even just a guest appearance for one episode, it’s unknown how many from the entire entertainment industry want the opportunity.

Many well-informed people in the circle have already learned in advance about the guest for the latest episode.

There’s nothing much to say about Jiang Lingxi and Xiao Yu. The former has successfully risen to the top tier with "Empress of Yuan Zhao" and a Best Actress award from Mulan, and her starring movie "Gale" is currently a box office hit, trending for several days, with undeniable hero quality that anyone with eyes can see.

They are envious, but they know they can’t compete.

Xiao Yu is the same; the current popularity of "Gale" barely qualifies him to be a guest for an episode.

But what about Su Linlin? She hasn’t had any noteworthy work in the past year, so is it just because Su Ya is her aunt?

It’s unclear how many people were grinding their teeth in secret when they learned Su Linlin was also recording for "Taoyuan Village."

Because among those most annoyed by Su Linlin using connections to participate in "Taoyuan Village" and who couldn’t grab the opportunity themselves, they were also the first to know that Su Linlin was targeted by Su Jincheng’s team right after the recording ended.

The moment Su Linlin went to participate in the recording of "Taoyuan Village," she was immediately targeted by Su Jincheng’s team, a resident guest of the show, which made them can’t help but think there’s a conspiracy.

In the entertainment industry, the speed at which information circulates is often shockingly fast.

Even though there weren’t solid rumors online yet, people in the circle had already figured it out.

Since Su Jincheng’s manager personally took action, it was clear that Su Linlin had offended Su Jincheng during the show, and possibly quite severely!

Chen Keyun was already late to hear this news, mainly because she was too lazy to follow Su Linlin.

However, her manager still remembered the grudge from when that person calculated against her own artist during a closed training camp and specifically took time out from her schedule to gather the latest scoop on Su Linlin.

When Chen Keyun finished work, she read it to her.

Chen Keyun laughed straight out after hearing, "How did she offend Su Jincheng? Su Jincheng’s manager’s really going all out!"

"The show’s team is keeping things tight-lipped, and there’s nothing definite out yet."

Chen Keyun thought for a moment, "With her full of scheming mind, always thinking of underhanded tactics, she probably plotted something against Su Jincheng on the show."

"That’s possible. It seems like she didn’t succeed and hit a hard wall. By the way, Jiang Lingxi is also a guest on this episode of ’Taoyuan Village,’ so she should know what Su Linlin did on the show."

Chen Keyun couldn’t help but feel intrigued.

She still had Jiang Lingxi’s contact information on her phone, but since they finished filming "Survival," their private interactions have been nearly zero.

After thinking about it, she shook her head, "Forget it, our relationship isn’t that close yet. Besides, the truth will come out sooner or later; there’s no rush to find out now."

Judging by the way Su Jincheng’s manager acted, Su Linlin is almost certainly doomed.

When the time comes, everyone will push when the wall falls; there will be plenty of people willing to spill all she did, and it will no longer be a secret.

Despite many in the industry speculating that Su Linlin would fall, the speed at which she fell was still beyond everyone’s expectations.

In just a few days, almost all of Su Linlin’s contracts were terminated, and ongoing projects were halted.

As for those in negotiation, all were replaced.

Anyone would do, except Su Linlin.

The Su Ya Studio didn’t even make an effort to resist, nor did they offer any explanation. When Su Linlin had no value and potentially could drag the studio down, they simply announced their contract termination with her.

The evidence held by the show’s team was too damning, and Su Jincheng’s side had no intention of reconciliation, so they had to abandon Su Linlin.

Even though she’s family, someone young from the family, people are inherently selfish. When it involves one’s interests, cutting losses promptly is the most important.

Naturally, the aunt-niece relationship reached a freezing point.

Jiang Lingxi learned of Su Linlin’s withdrawal from the circle through Tong Yue, just after finishing two guest roles in series.

Hearing it, she just nodded, "I know."

It was something she’d long foreseen, so it wasn’t surprising now.

It wasn’t as interesting as Wei Minmin’s video call last night, squinting and expressing a suspicion that Su Jincheng might be interested in pursuing her.

This silly girl, she finally figured it out!

Still, regarding other people’s relationship issues, she maintained her usual approach.

Just an observer.

If Wei Minmin wanted to share, she would listen as a little life anecdote, but as for giving advice, there was none; she’d let her experience the ups and downs herself.

Seeing her artist uninterested, Tong Yue decisively ended the topic about Su Linlin, knowing that in the future, no trace of her would be found in the entertainment industry.

After taking a sip of water, she turned to the main topic, "The review results for the military drama are in, and it passed smoothly. But this is only the first stage. Auditions are next, and several people in the industry are interested in the lead role. But I’m confident in you. The audition is scheduled for the day after tomorrow afternoon. The men will audition in the morning, and the women in the afternoon. The audition venue is quite special, in a military camp over at Beishan!"

"Also, tomorrow is still the day for you to fill out your college preferences, don’t forget."

Jiang Lingxi was impressed with the scheduling.

Since coming back from the resort, she thought of disguising and taking Shen Yunqing to the cinema to watch "Gale" together.

Even though she had already seen the final cut, how could it compare to watching a movie as a date?

Yet, there simply wasn’t time!

The day after she returned, she rushed into the set, and although it was just a cameo, it took two to three days to complete all the scenes.

Tomorrow is for filling college preferences, and the day after is the audition.

If she passes the audition, she’ll have to prepare to join the cast for filming.

Military drama — just thinking about it, you know it’s more strictly managed than other types.

Before the school term begins, she might have to spend it all in the crew.

The process of filling the college preferences was smooth. Unlike many students struggling with which school to apply to or whether their scores could meet their desired schools’ requirements, she had decided long before.

By the time of the official application, she only filled in one school and one course.

Including the pre-filing time and checking for any errors afterward, the whole process took less than an hour.

Putting down the mouse, "Next is waiting for the acceptance letter."

Jiang Lingxi said, looking up at Shen Yunqing standing behind her, "Receiving the acceptance letter will be up to you."

By the time the letter arrives, she estimates she’ll still be with the crew.

As for the possibility of not passing the audition, she wouldn’t allow that to happen.

The next morning, Tong Yue came punctually to take her to the audition.

They arrived just in time for the morning audition session.

On the spacious playground, a group of glamorous stars in the entertainment circle had all changed into uniform training outfits, standing under the blazing sun, sweating through drills, running laps, jumping into muddy pits...

Meeting the physical standards wasn’t enough; they couldn’t fear getting dirty or tired.

Just looking at this scene, you could imagine what the afternoon auditions would be like.
