Zhang Yu gently raised the corners of his lips and watched the still childish but energetic child in front of him running to his heart's content, and an indescribable warmth emerged in his heart.
Time flies, in just more than ten years, she has experienced the ups and downs of life, and finally resolutely left the seemingly prosperous but dangerous entertainment industry, and re-found inner peace and peace.
Today, she is enjoying a quiet and harmonious life. Every day, she accompanies her son, listens to his immature and innocent words, and feels his endless curiosity about life and a beautiful vision for the future, all of which makes Zhang Yu feel extremely satisfied and gratified.
The girl who lost herself in fame and fortune has disappeared, replaced by a mature and stable woman who understands the world.
She often recalls the days of struggle and hard work in the entertainment industry, and those unforgettable experiences seem to be just yesterday. At that time, she was tempted by power and wealth, and did not hesitate to sell her dignity for personal interests, but in the end she only got discredited and abandoned by her relatives.
However, that huge revelation also made her deeply realize how shocking the unspoken rules within the entertainment industry are.
Zhang Yu, who had tried to change the circle by himself, finally bowed his head and compromised under heavy pressure. She painfully realized that she was only an insignificant part of the huge machine of the entertainment industry after all, and she was really powerless to resist in the face of the powerful forces of those senior directors and stars.
Anger, disappointment, low self-esteem, these complex emotions intertwined, and she almost collapsed during those dark days.
Now, Zhang Yu has finally broken free from the shackles of fame and fortune and regained his inner peace. The honors and achievements that once made her crazy pursuit have long lost their original brilliance in her eyes.
Instead, she felt a deep affection for her family and endless love for her children, which gave her the courage and strength to stand up again.
Despite such a bumpy experience in the past, Zhang Yu always firmly believes that as long as he has a firm belief and a kind heart, he will be able to find his own happiness again in this complicated world.
She knows that although the transformation of her personal experience in the past is amazing, she has now found peace in her heart, which is the most precious harvest of her life!
Looking back, Zhang Yu never expected that he would one day fall into such a predicament. Growing up in an ordinary citizen family, she has had endless longing for those dazzling stars since she was a child.
Whenever she witnesses those personable and charismatic characters in TV dramas, she is always fascinated and silently aspires to become an outstanding actress.
With unwavering perseverance, Zhang Yu finally stepped into the door of Beijing Film Academy and embarked on a journey of chasing his dreams. However, the harsh reality ruthlessly crushed her self-confidence.
During her time at school, she found that her appearance and body were plain compared to those of her classmates, and the hardest hit was that most of these classmates came from wealthy families, and their family background was very small compared to them.
Just as Zhang Yu gradually lost confidence, an unexpected opportunity quietly came. An advertiser visited the school by chance to select a model, and Zhang Yu seized this once-in-a-lifetime audition opportunity and decided to give it a go.
She dressed up and walked into the audition, and while waiting, she heard the girl in front of her accuse the director of "unspoken rules".
Zhang Yu's heart was shocked, and she knew that in this highly competitive circle, if she wanted to succeed, she had to make difficult choices. So, she decisively catered to the director's needs, and finally got her wish and signed an advertising contract.
This success made her full of hope for the future, and she vowed to use her own strength to shine in the entertainment industry.
However, reality once again ruthlessly shattered Zhang Yu's dream. Despite her excellent performance in advertising shoots, she has never been able to win recognition in the field of film and television dramas.
auditions again and again, she always loses to those actors with deep backgrounds and rich resources, and the anxiety and resentment in her heart become stronger and stronger.
At this time, a well-known director extended an olive branch to Zhang Yu. The director appreciates her talent and promises to secure her a desirable role if she's willing to pay some "special price."
In the face of this irresistible attraction, Zhang Yu experienced a deep and intense inner struggle! On the one hand, her long-held dream of appearing on the dazzling silver screen, on the other hand, her moral bottom line was wavering and confused.
However, Zhang Yu ultimately made a difficult decision. She deeply understands that only through such means can she gain a foothold in the highly competitive entertainment industry.
So, she began to shuttle between the beds of many directors, exchanging her body for those insignificant small roles.
Although Zhang Yu felt ashamed and guilty about this deal, she still had to stick with it. She clearly knows that in this circle, successful people can enjoy endless glory and wealth, and she is just an unknown little actor, and her power is too small compared to those big names with deep backgrounds.
Just when Zhang Yu was disheartened and almost gave up his dream, an unexpected turning point quietly came. An advertiser came to her school by chance to select a model, Zhang Yu seized this once-in-a-lifetime audition opportunity, actively met the director's various needs, and finally signed the advertising contract as she wished.
This success made her regain her self-confidence and strengthen her determination to use her strength to break through the world in the entertainment industry.
However, reality ruthlessly shattered Zhang Yu's dream again. Despite her flawless performance in advertising shoots, she has never been recognized in the field of TV dramas.
After audition, she always loses to actors with stronger backgrounds and more abundant resources, and her inner anxiety and anger continue to escalate.
At this time, a well-known director threw an olive branch to Zhang Yu. The director appreciated her talent and promised to secure a pretty good role for her as long as she was willing to pay a certain "special price".
Faced with such temptation, Zhang Yu fell into an inner struggle again. On the one hand, she longs to shine on the screen, and on the other hand, her moral bottom line is constantly wavering.
In the end, Zhang Yu still chose to compromise. She knows very well that only in this way can she gain a foothold in this cruel entertainment industry.
So, she began a career of wandering between the beds of many directors, exchanging her body for those insignificant small roles.
Although Zhang Yu is deeply ashamed and remorseful about this transaction, she must continue this path of no return, which is full of risks and challenges. She knows very well that in this highly competitive entertainment industry, stars can harvest countless glory and wealth, and she is just an insignificant star, compared with those superstars from wealthy families, her own power is too small.
Therefore, in order to strive for more performance opportunities, she even took the initiative to approach the industry-famous director Huang Jianzhong.
During the transaction with Huang Jianzhong, Zhang Yu carefully kept the video evidence. She knows very well that only by mastering such a "hole card" can she gain a glimmer of hope in the future.
Sure enough, when Huang Jianzhong broke his promise and refused to fulfill his promise, Zhang Yu did not hesitate to choose to make this dirty truth public.
, an ordinary woman who once stepped into the entertainment industry with a dream, finally fell to the point where she had to sell her dignity. She is deeply aware that in this circle, money and power are supreme, and only those with deep backgrounds are qualified to dominate the world.
So, she decided to use the videotape in her hand to expose the dark side of this circle.
Zhang Yu's move undoubtedly triggered an earthquake in the entertainment industry. Huang Jianzhong, a well-respected director in the industry, has also fallen into such an ugly turmoil, which is jaw-dropping.
In the face of the tremendous pressure of public opinion, Huang Jianzhong appeared panicked. He immediately published a tirade on the Internet, trying to clear his name.
In it, he insisted that Mr. Zhang's accusations were nothing more than a despicable ploy to seek more role opportunities and called on the public to be wary of such rumors.
However, Zhang Yu did not stop there. With the blurry videotape in her hand, she firmly launched the final battle with Huang Jianzhong.
In this video, those ambiguous images clearly reveal that what Huang Jianzhong has done has seriously violated the bottom line of professional ethics.
When this video was made public, the entire entertainment industry instantly boiled. Huang Jianzhong can no longer justify his actions, let alone escape the severe punishment of the law.
Zhang Yu finally realized his wish and successfully unveiled the mystery of the unspoken rules within the entertainment industry.
However, it was precisely at that critical moment when Zhang Yu was convinced that she could use this to crush Huang Jianzhong, but in the face of the ruthless reality, she suffered a heavy blow again! Although the evidence was ironclad, Zhang Yu still could not win the case in the solemn courtroom.
As a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, Huang Jianzhong has a solid backing of many experienced lawyers, who used various strategies and methods to make Zhang Yu finally fall into the predicament of failure.
Losing the protection of legal proceedings, Zhang Yu had to choose to leave the entertainment industry in desperation and return to ordinary life to find a way to survive.
However, what she did became a "joke" in the eyes of everyone.
Recalling her feat of sacrificing herself for the sake of justice, in this world where money and power are paramount, it seems so naïve and absurd.
In this case, Zhang Yu can only be forced to struggle to survive at the bottom of society and live a life of struggling. And her family has endured endless humiliation among neighbors because of her experience, and even she herself has suffered.
Looking back on Zhang Yu's life process, what happened to her is really suffocating.
Zhang Yu was born in an ordinary family of Beijing citizens, and has had a deep longing for the radiant stars in the TV series since he was a child.
The elders of the neighborhood also praised her with sighs for her beautiful face like a little star, which strengthened her belief in becoming an outstanding actress.
With a tenacious perseverance, Zhang Yu was finally admitted to the Beijing Film Academy as he wished, and embarked on a journey to pursue his dreams.
However, reality quickly poured cold water on her.
On campus, she found her appearance and figure unremarkable compared to the rest of her classmates, and to her frustration, most of them came from prominent families with strong networks, and it was difficult for her to stand out in this fierce competition on her own.
Just when Zhang Yu was disheartened and ready to give up his dream, a sudden opportunity came. An advertiser visited the school by chance to select a model, and Zhang Yu seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to actively meet the needs of the director, and finally successfully signed the advertising contract.
This success rekindled her fighting spirit and decided to use her strength to break out in the entertainment industry.
However, the ruthless reality quickly hit Zhang Yu's blazing dream-chasing heart again. Although she has shown extraordinary talent in the filming of various commercials, she has never been able to win the recognition of industry insiders in the field of high-profile film and television dramas.
Every well-prepared audition opportunity was replaced by competitors with deeper backgrounds and more resources, and the sense of loss grew day by day.
At this critical moment, a famous director threw an olive branch to Zhang Yu, and he vowed that as long as Zhang Yu was willing to pay a "special price", he could win an enviable role for her.
Faced with such a huge temptation, Zhang Yu finally chose to compromise. She deeply understands that only through this way can she gain a foothold in this highly competitive entertainment industry.
So, she began to wander between the beds of many directors, using her body as a bargaining chip to exchange those insignificant small roles.
This ordinary girl who once stepped into the entertainment industry with a dream finally fell to the point where she had to sell her dignity. She is clearly aware that in this world full of power and money transactions, money and power are supreme, and only those with strong backgrounds can truly dominate.
So, she made up her mind to use the videotape in her hand to subvert the unspoken rules of this circle and let the world see its true face!
