Chapter 273 Who is this woman? (5th update)
Jin Yuanbao nodded in agreement. "Wanwan, you're right. This woman is mentally ill. Who knows what she's capable of? So, Xiaoqi, to protect our club from being burned down, you'd better hold on to your Xiao Qinglong identity."
Ruan Qi: “…”
Hug the little vest silently.
…
Ruan Qi slept in the club for one night, and the next morning, she boarded a plane to City M.
"The variety show that the 'Blade' crew is going to record is called 'Come On, Big Stars'. I've already sent you the script, so remember to read it when you get on the plane. He Ma and Mo Lan are already here, and they'll pick you up at the airport after you land. I'll be in City M soon, too, and I'll be with you on this variety show."
"Brother Chen, are you going too?" Ruan Qi was surprised. "Aren't you still on a business trip?"
Shen Wenqian: "I just got back yesterday. I was away on business for a week, and you caused me so many things. If I hadn't kept an eye on you during this variety show, who knows what kind of trouble you would have caused. Ruan Xiaoqi, you better behave yourself today, or I'll hold you and die with you!"
"..." Ruan Qi felt that her agent might be in menopause. She was always dying, which was not auspicious at all.
She comforted Shen Wenqian perfunctorily with a few words, hung up the phone, and then pushed her suitcase onto the plane.
The variety show that the "Blade" crew is going to record is called "Come on, Big Star", which is the flagship variety show of a certain satellite TV station.
In addition to Ruan Qi, the "Blade" crew also appeared on the variety show this time with director Jian Guoqiang, as well as the two male protagonists Zhan Rong and Wei Jiaming, and the second female lead Su Ai.
When Ruan Qi arrived at the TV station, Zhan Rong and the other two were already there. When they saw the little girl, they all greeted her enthusiastically.
"Xiao Qi, long time no see." The second female lead Su Ai gave Ruan Qi a big hug.
Ruan Qi smiled and hugged Su Ai, then waved to Zhan Rong and Wei Jiaming.
"Brother Zhanrong, Brother Jiaming."
Zhan Rong, who was putting on makeup, nodded with a smile.
As a fellow disciple, the Emperor of Vision Wei Jiaming directly took out the health tea he had prepared long ago and handed it to Ruan Qi, "This is a newly researched health tea, nourishing and calming. Want to try it?"
Ruan Qi didn't act pretentiously. She took the thermos and poured herself a cup.
Zhan Rong saw the interaction between the two and couldn't help but joked, "Xiao Qi is still so supportive of Brother Jia Ming. It was like this when they were on the crew. They were a health-conscious duo."
Everyone in the dressing room laughed.
Ruan Qi finished her health tea and looked around the room. "Where's Director Jian?"
"I went to check the process with the host." Su Ai replied, "The production team gave Director Jian face and the 'Blade' crew wanted to record an extended version and broadcast it in two episodes."
"Blade" is a state-funded TV series, and the "Go Big Star" production team dared not ignore it. In addition, several of the main actors in this drama are highly popular stars, and the production team also wanted to take advantage of the popularity and traffic.
Ruan Qi looked over today's script on the plane. There was indeed a lot of content that needed to be recorded, and it would take at least a day.
If the recording doesn't go well, I'm afraid I'll have to work overtime tonight.
"Is our crew the only one participating in the recording today?"
"No." Su Ai shook her head. "It's too much for just the few of us to have fun. Director Jian is an old man. Wouldn't he be exhausted if he recorded for a whole day? I just heard from the staff that there seems to be another crew coming. Oh, and I heard that a little star is also coming to make a scene."
Ruan Qi nodded in understanding.
…
Not long after, Jian Guoqiang, who had gone to discuss the process with the host, came back, accompanied by Shen Wenqian and two makeup artists.
"Today's schedule is quite tight. Xiao Qi, Su Ai, you two girls should put on your makeup first."
As Shen Wenqian spoke, he pulled Ruan Qi to the dressing table and arranged a makeup artist for her.
Su Ai sat on the other side, and the two makeup artists started to get busy.
It takes a long time for female celebrities to do their styling, including putting on makeup, doing their hair, changing clothes, and by the time they are all done, an hour has already passed.
"Take this brooch." Shen Wenqian took out the brand-sponsored brooch and handed it to Ruan Qi.
Ruan Qi pinned the brooch on her skirt while listening to Shen Wenqian mutter, "Today's recording will be very long, so you should cheer up. Have you memorized all the questions in the script?"
"I remember."
"That's good." Shen Wenqian patted her shoulder and was about to say something when the door of the dressing room was suddenly pushed open.
"How are your preparations?" the assistant director walked in and asked.
"It's almost done," Shen Wenqian quickly stood up, "Should we start recording?"
Assistant Director: "No, the recording will have to wait a while. I came here to tell you that the other two groups of guests participating in the recording have arrived. Let's meet in the conference room later and discuss the process."
Ten minutes later, Ruan Qi and his group went to the conference room.
Jian Guoqiang pushed open the door of the conference room, and Ruan Qi, who was following behind him, saw a woman wearing a red dress with big wavy hair sitting on the sofa.
This woman...why does she look familiar?
I seem to have seen it somewhere.
Ruan Qi frowned and tried hard to search for memories in his mind.
Suddenly, a picture emerged from the depths of my memory.
"Ah!" The little girl screamed subconsciously and pulled Shen Wenqian over, "Brother Shen, that person is..."
"Shhh!!!"
Shen Wenqian quickly covered her mouth and said, "There are so many people here, keep your voice down!"
Ruan Qi nodded quickly, and after the agent released her hand, she lowered her voice and asked, "Brother Chen, is that woman the one we met in my neighborhood last time?"
Half a month ago, Ruan Qi and Shen Wenqian were walking their dog in Yuyuan Community when they unexpectedly ran into a panicked woman with bruises on her body.
At that time, Ruan Qi thought the woman was in some trouble, and asked her enthusiastically if she needed to call the police, but was scolded harshly by the woman.
After cursing, the woman threw a stack of money at Ruan Qi and threatened her not to tell anyone about what happened to her.
Ruan Qi and Shen Wenqian were speechless. They just thought that this woman might have some serious illness and did not take the matter to heart.
But today, they actually met this woman again in the meeting room of the "Come on, Big Star" production team!
"No wonder I thought she looked familiar the other day," Shen Wenqian took a breath, "I remember now, she's Miao Mengmeng, the leading actress in the TV series 'The Green Hairpin', and the winner of this year's Golden Star Award for Best Newcomer!"
Ruan Qi: "Miao Mengmeng? Is she very popular?"
"She's definitely not as famous as you, but she's pretty famous too." Shen Wenqian lowered his voice. "Miao Mengmeng is well-connected, with financial backers behind her. The movie 'The Green Hairpin' she starred in was financed by her financial backers. I also heard that the Best Newcomer award at the Venus Awards was also secured with the help of her financial backers. But it's just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not."
Ruan Qi said "Oh".
She thought of her encounter with Miao Mengmeng that day and asked curiously, "Brother Chen, does Miao Mengmeng also live in Yuyuan? She lives in the same neighborhood as me?"
"..." Shen Wenqian frowned and did not answer the question.
Yuyuan is considered a wealthy community in the capital, and ordinary celebrities cannot afford it.
Miao Mengmeng is not a rich second-generation or a second-generation celebrity. She has only been in the industry for less than two years, so she should not be able to afford to live in Yuyuan.
But why was she in Yuyuan Community, covered in bruises?
Shen Wenqian, who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, had a hunch that there was something fishy going on. He thought about it and whispered to Ruan Qi, "Stay away from her when we're recording the show later."
