Chapter 179 Something Happened
crew.
Sister Kuan came to visit Chen Li’s class today!
"I've already turned down that campus play. If you don't want to act, then we won't do it."
In the lounge, Sister Kuan was chatting with Shen Li.
"I came here this time to say hello to the crew. You have to hurry up and shoot your next scenes. The next script is expected to start filming after the New Year."
The next script was the one chosen by Chen Li herself. In order to compensate Chen Li, Lu Jinzhao promised Chen Ci that he would let Chen Li choose a role she wanted to play.
Chen Li sat obediently, only concentrating on listening to Sister Kuan's words: "Here, let's try to finish filming before the New Year so that you can have a peaceful New Year. There must be a breathing time between the connection between the characters, so that you can get away from the current script and perform well in the next play."
"Oh, by the way, there's a big-budget comedy coming out next Spring Festival. The leading female role is Ji Chuhe. Are you interested?"
Chen Li came back to her senses: "Comedy? Comedy is difficult."
"Yes, but don't you want to try different types? If you are interested, you can take a look at the script first, then see if there is any role that interests you, and then tell me later." Sister Kuan said slowly and calmly, without any intention of forcing Chen Li.
Chen Li nodded. "Thank you, Sister Kuan, for letting me choose roles so freely. Sometimes I even wonder, like the female lead in this campus drama, I feel a little ungrateful. It's an opportunity that many people envy."
Sister Kuan just smiled and said, "Actually, I know what you want. You're not wrong. Many people are just like you when they first start working in the industry, thinking they must do this and that, and that they will never take on bad dramas or bad roles. But after entering the industry, everyone gradually realizes that this industry is rotten to the core, and almost everyone is forced to do things against their will."
As she spoke, she gently pulled Chen Li's hand and held it: "As for me, although I am your agent, I am actually working according to the company's arrangements. I will definitely give you what I promised in the contract, but more depends on you. No one can be free forever, so you should cherish your current freedom and do what you want."
There is actually a lot of meaning in Sister Kuan’s words, and Chen Li may not be able to digest it all now, but no one can remain spotless in this industry. One day she will understand.
Even if her sister is the capital, who can guarantee that the building will not collapse one day?
You have to walk your own path, and no one can always protect you from the wind and rain.
"Okay, I'll remember it, Sister Kuan." Chen Li nodded with her watery eyes flashing.
Sister Kuan smiled with satisfaction, then slowly stood up and said, "Then I'll go say hello to the crew first. Your filming schedule will definitely be tightened later, so it will be a bit more difficult."
"It's okay, Sister Kuan. I'm not afraid of hard work."
Sister Kuan smiled again and turned to look at A Pan and Xiao Yun: "You two take good care of A Li."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Chen Li exhaled lightly, and inexplicably felt a sense of heaviness in her heart. She could hear the hints and warnings in Sister Kuan's tone. She was too comfortable now, and everything came too easily, so she lost her vigilance and sense of crisis.
In this industry, having things go too smoothly is not necessarily a good thing.
"A Pan, go buy some more dishes later and let Sister Kuan eat here at noon."
A Pan nodded, picked up his phone and went out.
As a result, he came back two minutes later with another person behind him.
It’s Tan Yue!
"Eh? Tan Yue, are you discharged from the hospital?"
Chen Li was startled when she saw the person coming, and her eyes subconsciously looked at his armpit, where he was leaning on a crutch.
Tan Yue smiled when he saw Chen Li: "She's been discharged from the hospital."
"You're still on crutches." Chen Li quickly led him into the lounge and asked him to sit down, then said, "A fracture is no small matter. You need to recuperate well."
"Teacher Chen Li, you don't have to worry about me. I will take good care of my health. I just plan to go back to my hometown and recuperate there." Tan Yue said seriously.
Chen Li was stunned: "Your hometown is in the Northeast, right?"
Tan Yue nodded, then took out the thing in his hand and said with a evasive look, "These are apples from my hometown. My mom carried them all the way here on the train. They're so sweet."
As if he was afraid that Chen Li would dislike him, he behaved a little awkwardly.
"Thank you, I love apples the most." Chen Li took it without hesitation and thanked him politely.
This was Tan Yue's most sincere expression of gratitude, and Chen Li understood.
Tan Yue looked at Chen Li with a relieved smile, and reminded her, "Teacher Chen Li, you must eat it quickly. It's been a bumpy ride, and I'm afraid it might get spoiled."
Chen Li nodded, then asked with concern: "Then can you go back and recuperate? What does the doctor say?"
"The doctor said the surgery is complete and I can go home and recuperate."
"The main thing is that I thought about the compensation and medical expenses the crew gave me. If I stay in the hospital for a day, it will cost a lot of money. It's better to go back to my hometown. I guess I will be better by the beginning of next spring. I can also bring the money back home to celebrate the New Year. I haven't been home for the New Year in several years."
Only then did Chen Li feel a little relieved.
"I came here just to thank you and say goodbye to you in person. I hope I can see you again in the "Shudian" next year." Tan Yue said sincerely.
"I definitely will." Chen Li also responded sincerely.
Tan Yue stood up with the help of a cane: "Then I'll go. I also want to thank Brother Xiaolong and Teacher Song Anyu."
After sending him to the door and watching his back as he slowly walked away on crutches, Xiaoyun couldn't help but whisper, "It seems like he has had a hard time."
Chen Li didn't say anything, just sighed slowly.
At this moment, Xiaolong suddenly ran over excitedly from another direction, apparently going back to Song Anyu's lounge.
Seeing Chen Li and Xiao Yun standing at the door of the lounge from a distance, Xiao Long's eyes lit up: "A Li Xiao Yun, something happened on the set!"
He said something happened on the set, but his expression was full of excitement. Chen Li frowned in confusion: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"You'll know when you go and see. I have to go tell An Yu." Xiaolong said and ran away without waiting for Chen Li to ask, leaving Chen Li even more confused.
"Ali, let's go and take a look." Xiaoyun said eagerly.
Chen Li nodded, and she and Xiaoyun hurried to today's shooting location.
There was a lot of noise on the set, and the sound of girls crying could be heard faintly. The filming had been paused, and a group of people gathered in front of the director's small screen.
"I really didn't touch her. Maybe I just touched her accidentally. Is she really going to react so strongly?"
"Director Ke, you know, if I'm still concerned about this and that while filming, how can I get into the role?"
"You agree, don't you?"
Chen Li didn't know what was going on. She just looked in the direction of the crying. Before she could see who it was, she heard the other person crying miserably, "I want to call the police!"
With this voice, Chen Li instantly understood.
It’s Kate Tsui!
Woo woo woo, I can’t write anymore.
I'll leave the next update for tomorrow.
Feel sorry.
