Qin Di while drinking tea, he recalled Ruan Lingyu in history.

Ruan Lingyu was born in poverty and her mother was in the paint and wood business. She helped her to attend Chongde Girls' Middle School in the Magic City.

The fourth young master of the Zhang family is named "Zhang Damin". He is handsome and idle after graduating from college. He has a good impression of the beautiful and charming Ruan Lingyu. He often shows his feelings and pleases the 15-year-old Ruan Lingyu. The two soon lived together.

After the Zhang family learned about it, they swept Ruan Lingyu and her daughter out, cutting off Zhang Damin's living expenses. Zhang Damin was used to being a playboy, never worked, and often got involved in casinos, with a lot of money.

In desperation, according to the introduction of Brother Zhang Damin and director Zhang Huichong, in 1926, Ruan Lingyu, who was only 16 years old, began to take on some small roles in film companies to support her family. With her extraordinary appearance and temperament, she quickly became famous.

In 1928, Zhang's father died and left 250,000 yuan in inheritance to each of the first three sons, and only a few thousand yuan was left for the disobedient fourth son.

Since then, Zhang Damin relied on Ruan Lingyu to support him and did not change his temper. Ruan Lingyu has become a well-known star. She can share the same beauty with Hu Die in the film industry. When she goes home, she not only has to spend various expenses on Zhang Damin, but also has to serve him in life. She has completely become Zhang Damin's ATM, and the two gradually have a rift.

After meeting 40-year-old Tang Jishan in Hong Kong, Ruan Lingyu could not stand a husband like Zhang Damin, compared with the successful career, gentle and elegant Tang Jishan, who was good at serving others.

When Tang Jishan and Ruan Lingyu were in love, Zhang Zhiyun wrote a letter to Ruan Lingyu, saying: "I am today, you are tomorrow." However, Ruan Lingyu didn't care, thinking that it was just a woman's jealousy.

Under Tang Jishan's temptation, she and Zhang Damin completed the divorce procedures, and took her mother and adopted daughter to move into the three-story western-style building in Qinyuan Village, Xinzha Road, the Magic City that Tang Jishan bought for her, which is where she would commit suicide in the future.

When the divorce was agreed, Ruan Lingyu promised to give Zhang Damin a living expense of 100 yuan every month in the future.

But this was difficult to satisfy Zhang Damin's expenses. He kept asking for money. Ruan Lingyu knew that she was in a loss and paid hundreds of yuan to Zhang Damin many times. However, the money Zhang Damin asked for increased waters and asked her for 5,000 yuan at a time. Tang Jishan was deeply dissatisfied, so Ruan Lingyu refused to pay.

When Zhang Damin was in a tight position, he remembered that he had lost 250,000 yuan in inheritance because of Ruan Lingyu, but now he was abandoned by Ruan Lingyu. He became more and more annoyed, so he went to court and sued Ruan Lingyu for "torn the marriage contract and stealing family wealth, and committing adultery with others", and asked Ruan Lingyu to compensate for the inheritance he had never received.

Ruan Lingyu tried to settle privately with Zhang Damin, but Tang Jishan firmly disagreed and went to court to counterattack Zhang Damin for his reputation.

What bothers her even more is that Tang Jishan, who had countless encounters with love, fell in love with a little star, Liang Saizhen, among the "Four Sisters of the Liang family", often never returns at night.

When Ruan Lingyu argued with him about this, Tang Jishan actually beat her. After the conflict, Ruan Lingyu returned late at night from filming on the set. Tang Jishan refused to allow Ruan's mother to open the door, so Ruan Lingyu was frozen outside for a whole night.

Ruan Lingyu, who was already very well-known, was pushed to the forefront due to the dispute between Tang and Zhang and was anxious. Tang Jishan's fickleness and betrayal made her realize that what she was entrusted with was unfamiliar, so she felt extremely pessimistic.

On March 6, 1935, the Magic City District Court issued a summons to Ruan Lingyu, demanding that she must appear in court to testify on March 9 to explain the whole story.

At around 1:00 a.m. on March 8, she asked her mother to cook a bowl of noodles for her and mixed it with 30 sleeping pills to commit suicide.

In short, this is a tragedy. Many people attribute Ruan Lingyu's suicide to long-term blackmail. They went to court to sue her ex-husband Zhang Damin, but ignored the other person in this love triangle, Tang Jishan.

Zhang Naijing saw Qin Di fall into silence for a long time and asked, "Hey, what are you thinking?"

Qin Di was a little angry and blurted out: "I'm wondering whether to deal with this tea king."

"What are you doing to deal with him? You are shopping in brothels and playing operas. There are many places like this. What does it have to do with you? Besides, men and women love each other, Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who are willing to take the bait! Unless you are interested in Ruan Lingyu, why bother interfere?"

"What are my interests in her? It was Tang Jishan who caused trouble first and listed my Qin family on the list of rich people!"

"Hey, are you really ready to interfere?"

Qin Di took a deep breath and said to Yan Xue not far away: "Let me know someone to notify Tang Jishan and ask him to apologize to me!"

Yan Xue became her personal secretary, and there were also secretaries Du Rong and Du Lan.

When Du Rong talked to the leader of the Qing Gang, Du Yuesheng, it would be immediately heard from Tang Jishan.

At this time, Du Yuesheng's power grew stronger and stronger, surpassing Huang Jinrong and Zhang Xiaolin.

The next afternoon, after Tang Jishan received the news, he felt a little confused: "What? Let me go over and apologize? What a joke? I am an elite studying abroad, how can I compare to a big fan? Besides, I just said casually and was published in the newspaper, and even Jiang Song and Kong Chen did not show up. The Qin family has no official background. Why should I pick my fault? Humph, ignore him!"

Qin Di carefully calculated and came to a rough conclusion: "Ruan Lingyu is an artist, not a politician, and her life and death will not affect the direction of history. She is different from Xu Zhimo. Xu Zhimo and Hu Shi represent the bourgeoisie and are the targets of Left League's criticism, and are also half a politician. Ruan Lingyu is just an actress who makes movies."

So he came to Baida Company, found out the long contract that Ruan Lingyu signed when she debuted in 1926, and studied it carefully for a while.

He bought Baidai Company and wrote the company's articles of association in person, dividing the signing of the singer into a long-term contract, which started about 10 years, and stipulated that the marriage of a female singer must be a secret marriage. Once married, he cannot divorce and remarry within ten years. Otherwise, it will affect the singer's reputation and must compensate the company for a large amount of money.

This "large amount" is purely a domineering clause. According to the influence of the singer, it is divided into three levels, with a maximum compensation of 1 million yuan!

One million yuan is a small amount for Qin Di, but it is a sky-high price for ordinary singers! Even movie stars like Ruan Lingyu can’t get it! Tang Jishan can get it, but she may not be willing to spend a lot of money to redeem people! For businessmen, is there true love? What kind of woman is worth 1 million? How many pornographic daughters can you find at the same price?

Qin Di ordered this matter. Zhou Tianlin, the manager of Baida Company, did not dare to neglect it. He called Ruan Lingyu over that day, inquired about her marital status, and issued a harsh warning to her relationship with Tang Jishan!

"Ms. Ruan, according to the agreement, if you divorce and remarry, you will have to compensate the company for 1 million yuan!"

Ruan Lingyu cried as soon as she heard this. She was only 16 years old when she signed the contract. How could she have thought of such a distance?

"Mr. Zhou, this agreement is a contract that cannot be counted!"

"Miss Ruan, our company has hired three lawyers from the Magic City. Even if you sue, you will lose!"

"Mr. Zhou, please let me go. I finally found true love, and I would rather die than give up..."

"Ms. Ruan, the ten-year long contract you signed with the company ended at the end of 1936. You only need to wait for three more years to get married. Can't you wait for three years?"

Ruan Lingyu committed suicide on March 8, 1935. If she was delayed until the end of 1936, she would not have died.
Chapter completed!
