The woman sitting in front of Ye Zhen had beautiful eyebrows. Under the sun, her beautiful hair was blown by the breeze. She sat in a beautiful posture, and there was an elegant and graceful temperament between her eyebrows. At first glance, one couldn't bear to look at her and felt ashamed of themselves. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that she was talented and beautiful.
Ye Zhen had seen too many beautiful and charming women, but she felt that none of them could compare to the woman in front of her.
In comparison, Ye Zhen felt that Miss Meng was more natural and graceful than Shen Weiyin, who came from an aristocratic family.
Even though the woman in front of her looked sad and haggard, she still felt pity for her.
"Although Miss Meng has been forced to retire from the film industry, I know that there are still many fans waiting for Miss Meng. Is Miss Meng really not going to consider making a comeback?"
The description of Miss Meng in the novel was just a passing mention. There wasn't much detailed content. This Miss Meng was completely a tool that Ye Qing used to deal with Shen Weiyin.
Before meeting Miss Meng, Ye Zhen had already investigated Miss Meng's past.
Miss Meng's full name was Meng Jie. She was born in a scholarly family. Her parents were professors at famous schools. If one went up the family tree, they would be famous people in the long river of history. Since she was young, her parents hoped that she could walk the path of art and literature. Who knew that Meng Jie liked acting and enrolled in a film and television academy.
Although the Meng family's parents were not too pedantic, when the news of the entertainment industry reached the ears of these scholars, there would always be some exaggeration, thinking that it was a bottomless pit. Meng Jie was used to following the rules since she was young, but on this matter, she was surprisingly stubborn.
Left with no choice, her parents could only agree.
Meng Jie had been blessed since she was young. Even when she entered the entertainment industry, she was still as lucky as before.
Before she graduated, she was chosen by a famous director to be the female lead of the film. Although she looked young and immature, her acting skills were praised by many teachers in the film and television academy. At that time, Meng Jie soared to the sky with this film and won the Best Newcomer Award.
She was good-looking and had a good temperament. She was really kind to people and had never been angry with others. She was indifferent to fame and fortune. Even if there were villains who made up bad things about her that did not belong to her, she would just laugh it off. After that, her path to stardom was smooth sailing. She did not endorse any brand advertisements and focused on her acting skills. In eight years, she used more than 20 well-produced works to repay all her fans. Just before the announcement of the Best Actress Award at the most influential film festival in the country, the program team removed Meng Jie from the candidate list.
Fans didn't know what happened and clamored for justice, but only people in the entertainment industry knew that Meng Jie had offended someone and was banned.
When she was banned, Meng Jie still had two years left on her contract with the management company. Two years later, the contract was successfully terminated, but no film and television company dared to sign her. The only studio that dared to take a gamble was forced to buy it two months later because of contact with her.
It had been a full four years since Meng Jie had been banned.
The active stars on the screen changed wave after wave, and fans gradually forgot about her. Which star could withstand four years of torture?
Miss Meng's eyes were smiling, and her tone was calm. "I've been out of the entertainment industry for four years, and now my life is very peaceful."
Ye Zhen had long thought of words to persuade such a woman who was indifferent and content with the status quo, but at this moment, she couldn't say them.
"I don't know if Miss Meng still remembers what you said to your fans when you won your first newcomer award." Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I remember you said that you could act as a young girl when you were young, a middle-aged woman, and a mother when you were old. As long as you could act and still move, you would continue acting and use your life's energy to act, and you wouldn't let your fans down."
Meng Jie looked absent-minded. She hurriedly turned her head to hide the sadness in her eyes. Her throat moved, and she remained silent.
"Miss Meng, do you know? Ever since you left the entertainment industry, your fans have been waiting for you to come back every day. Among them, there are many old fans who have been with you for eight years. Are you really not willing to return to the entertainment industry and the screen? "
Ye Zhen could see that Meng Jie was in a dilemma.
Four years ago, she had left the entertainment industry because she had been forced and had given in. At that time, the only studio that was willing to sign her was forced to acquire it because of her. She had also tried to take on small roles in the production team, but without exception, all of them had been edited.
A lot of hope and despair had been placed in front of her. After four years of peaceful life, she no longer had the courage to try.
"If Miss Meng is worried about implicating me, you don't have to worry. You should have heard of the Lu Clan Corporation. If he wants to go against the Lu Clan because of this, he has to see if he has the ability to do so." Ye Zhen tried her best to persuade her. "As long as you are willing, the Lu Clan can be your backer."
Meng Jie's gaze finally softened. "But as far as I know, the Lu Clan doesn't have any involvement in the film industry."
Ye Zhen smiled. "They didn't in the past, but they will in the future. President Lu is a bold person who likes to experiment. I don't think he will reject the film industry. Don't worry. Since the Lu Clan wants to have a share of the pie, the film and television companies that divide the world will have to have a share of the pie. With money and power, you can do whatever you want. I think Miss Meng has already experienced this principle."
Meng Jie smiled bitterly. "Yes, with money and power, you can do whatever you want."
"Then, Miss Meng, about the collaboration, why don't you go back and reconsider it. Is it worth it to be forced to give up the career you love because of one person?"
Meng Jie fell silent.
The phone beside her rang. Meng Jie looked at the name on the screen and frowned. Without hesitation, she pressed the button to end the call.
Ye Zhen didn't see the caller ID on the screen. She only caught a glimpse of the word "You."
Ye Zhen could feel the impatience. After all, Meng Jie was such a well-mannered person. When she received a call from an unknown number like Ye Zhen, she could answer it with a smile. However, this call was so impolite.
Meng Jie picked up the phone, got up, and prepared to leave. "Mrs. Lu, I will consider your proposal carefully. I will give you an answer as soon as possible. Is that okay?"
