Chapter 423 Is it so exciting?
Duan Rao was embarrassed for a moment, then raised his hand and gave Zhou Shunzhe an astonished thumbs-up: "This is really true that life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, there are dramas everywhere, and there are surprises everywhere."
Zhou Shunzhe was amused by her little appearance and said unhappily, "What else do you think? Once you enter this circle, the first thing you need to learn is acting. It doesn't matter if you can't act on stage, there are many ways to help you improve. It's really terrible if you can't act off stage. If you are not careful, you will offend everyone and you don't know when this person will disappear."
Du Anrao: “…” How come this isn’t considered a reversal of Tiangang?
"This screenwriter Liang has worked with your second brother once before, and both of them felt it was okay. He writes good scripts, with strong logic and meaningful words. The most important thing is that he can listen to other people's opinions and put down his airs. He is not like some people in the circle who look down on this and that because they have a little culture."
"...I always feel like you're deliberately picking on someone."
Zhou Shunzhe's expression was slightly stiff, and he coughed lightly and said, "No, no, you misunderstood. I didn't mean anything else. Anyway, that's pretty much what I meant. Since you're here today, why don't you help me check out this guy's character and whether your brother's friendship with him will lead to any risks."
"Very good." Du Anrao stroked his chin and glanced at the father and daughter not far away. "He has a clean family tradition and is an upright person. He and his wife are childhood sweethearts. They have grown up together and have a close relationship. He is good at both housework and cooking, and he loves his wife and daughter."
"If I have to say there is a flaw, it's that I'm a bit stubborn and don't like others to judge my work. But if you can really say something concrete to convince him, it's not that I can't communicate with you."
"Yes, yes, that's right. When He Xuan was working with him before, there was a relative in the crew who got the script for the supporting role but worried about the main character. He had no acting skills and had a lot of complaints. He would ask Brother Liang for suggestions whenever he had something to do, asking him to add a scene here and there, and even tried to steal the highlights of your brother's script. Brother Liang was so angry that he scolded him in front of dozens of people in the crew, and he didn't even dare to raise his head."
Du Anrao thought this kind of gossip in the circle was quite interesting, and asked curiously: "What happened next? Did you add him?"
"Fuck! I'm not saying anything personal, these are Brother Liang's exact words. After being scolded by Brother Liang, the relative went back to complain to his sponsor. As a result, after his sponsor knew the whole story, he brought him to the crew to apologize to Brother Liang that night, and kicked him out of the crew that night."
Duanrao clapped his hands in support: "Great, awesome!"
"That's right. You dare to step on someone's head and point fingers without even considering his background. If not him, who will be in trouble? At that time, Brother Liang was not given much face by the director in the crew. Only your second brother would listen to him. Because what your second brother said just happened to be in line with his expectations and understanding of the characters. Just like what you said just now, it was meaningful, so he looked at your brother with special respect."
Zhou Shunzhe always has an inexplicable sense of pride and satisfaction when he talks about this: "In short, he is not stubborn. He has aspirations, a bottom line, and a high standard. It is not a shortcoming."
Duan Rao: “…Okay.”
The remaining three parent-child pairs are a veteran actor in his early 40s and his son, a female singer who recalls childhood memories and her daughter, and...
"You need to be extra careful with the father and son on the far right. Even if you can't befriend them, it's best not to offend them."
Zhou Shunzhe's words aroused Duanrao's interest: "What's the difference between this father and son and others?"
"That's Mr. Duan, the boss of Industrial Media, the major shareholder of the TV station behind our variety show, and also the largest investor in this variety show. Like Mr. Ke, his wife died young, leaving behind only this one son. But unlike Mr. Ke, this one has never remarried since his wife passed away, and has raised his son alone."
"Sounds quite affectionate?"
“Who can tell for sure what goes on in these rich people’s homes?”
Duan Rao's eyes immediately drifted over: "From what you said, it seems like you know something about the inside story."
Zhou Shunzhe looked around, then approached Duanrao mysteriously and whispered, "I have a friend who works in the gossip media industry. He told me privately that Mr. Duan may not be as affectionate as he appears to be. He has a mistress hidden in his golden house."
"Ah?" Duan Rao paused while cracking melon seeds. "What do you mean?"
"My friend took a photo of him keeping a woman in a high-end apartment under his name, and the woman also had a daughter."
"Is it so exciting?"
"It's so shocking. My friend also said that he visits the woman and the child regularly and gives them money and gifts. If they weren't so closely related, why would he have to go to such lengths?"
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, your circle is really messy."
Zhou Shunzhe was so excited about gossip that he secretly glanced around before continuing.
"I also heard that the woman's daughter is about the same age as his son. If this is true... and his son should know about this, so the relationship between the two is said to be not very good. There are rumors that the reason why Mr. Duan invested in this variety show is to take the opportunity to repair the father-son relationship with his son. But you can see that the child doesn't want to pay attention to him. It's probably difficult to repair the relationship between the two."
Upon hearing this, Du Anrao subconsciously glanced at the father and son over there and nodded in agreement.
From the moment he got off the bus, the old father had been carrying luggage and serving tea and water, and his attitude was very humble. However, the child just didn't want to pay any attention to him and didn't even look at him.
Even so, the old father still followed him around and circled around him, which was really humble.
"We can't control their family affairs, and there's no way we can control them. Anyway, no matter what, you just need to keep an eye on He Xuan and be careful yourself, and don't make enemies with others."
Duanrao couldn't help nodding, and halfway through she realized that she was just a little assistant watching from the side. Why did his tone sound like she also had to get along with those people?
Before Duanrao could think about it, the host not far away saw that all the guests had arrived, confirmed the process with the director, and then picked up the loudspeaker and started speaking.
First everyone's identity was introduced and everyone greeted each other before getting down to business.
"Dear audience, hello, this is the first episode of the first season of our program "Cute Kids Travel". In addition to the four parent-child pairs, there are two flying guests on the set today, that is, our actor Du Hexuan Du and artist Yu Zhaojun from Gu Pan Entertainment."
As soon as he finished speaking, the young artist who came to take advantage of the announcement waved towards the camera and smiled in a harmless manner.
"Before the show starts, the two flying guests need to choose each other with the two young guests present to form a temporary parent-child combination. Then what's next..."
"etc."
