Chapter 26 I sent her back
"Ming Yue Wan" is commonly known as "a good cake" in the circle. First of all, in addition to the good content of the work, the other is the production team. Once a work is produced by Tangren Production, it is very close to the word "hit", so when Tangren got the copyright of this drama, almost everyone in the circle was watching its casting.
In order to compete for opportunities, major companies are not reluctant to cooperate with marketing accounts, whether it is to make edited videos or deliberately use them to promote their own actors, such as the Chosen Mingyue Wan'er, etc. In order to get Director Tang to pay attention to Qi Yuan, Shu Mei also cooperated with Xi Ning Company and asked Xi Ning Company to write a voting article. The result, of course, was that Qi Yuan won by a landslide.
So the moment the leading actress was decided, the news spread like wildfire, leaving everyone stunned. No matter how they guessed, they could not have guessed that the person would be Wen Chu, a former stunt actress who had just become the center of attention a few days ago.
Almost everyone was in disbelief and had all kinds of speculations.
——What is this person’s background? She asked Xingyao to terminate the contract for her, which allowed Qimeng to slowly crawl out of the pit and sign her.
——She just stepped out from behind the scenes and got the role in Director Tang’s "Feng Yue Wan". Their own artists didn’t even dare to dream of it. An actress who was just a stand-in and had never stood in front of the screen got such a good role. No one believed her if she said she had no background.
What role did she play for Qi Yuan? Was it The Female Knight, Spring Breeze, or The Long Corridor Light? I have to go and see it.
Qi Yuan was furious, lighting a cigarette with trembling hands. She had touched the script for "Feng Yue Wan," and everything had been set in stone until Director Tang changed his mind and decided to sign Wen Chu, who had an accident on set and was now unable to move. Director Tang's auditions had already begun, and Qi Yuan had prepared thoroughly to show Director Tang that she wasn't inferior to Wen Chu. She'd been lazy before, but she could be serious.
So that day she auditioned, chose sword dancing, and wore the purple brocade skirt that Mingyue Wan'er often wore. She auditioned two scenes, including a crying scene.
When she saw Director Tang's expression, she knew he was satisfied, and he also asked her about her understanding of the role.
She didn't make a decision right then and there, but Qi Yuan knew that the chances were great, and she just had to wait. She didn't expect Wen Chu to come back to life...
Shu Mei flipped through her tablet and said, "There's nothing we can do. The situation is already settled. First, finish filming Qing Ping Chuan. I'll have someone pick out a new script for you. Later, try to challenge her to a duel. If you can defeat her once, you'll win."
Qi Yuan took out her cigarette and flicked it in the ashtray. She narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Shu Mei, do you think she will often compete with me in the future?"
Shu Mei looked up at her and said, "Yes. Ever since she stepped onto the screen with this face, it's inevitable, so be prepared."
Qi Yuan stood up and said, "I won't let this happen again, not even once."
She turned around and asked someone to come over and help her change out of her costume.
"What are you going to do?"
"Don't worry about it." Qi Yuan said, took the car keys, parked her sports car in the film and television city, put on sunglasses, and drove out.
I learned from Gu Ci that Gu Cheng was resting in his bar. He hadn't slept well these days. Qi Yuan parked the car and walked in. The bar was very quiet during the day. There were not many people, and even the chairs were smoother. Qi Yuan walked around the booth and saw Gu Cheng curled up in the sofa with his long legs on the coffee table. He was leaning against the back of the chair, resting with his eyes closed, his collar slightly open, and his Adam's apple was obvious. Qi Yuan approached carefully and was about to sit down. She glanced and saw the screen of his mobile phone on the table. When she put down her car keys, they touched his phone and the page flashed.
It’s Wen Chu’s photo.
She was holding a Chihuahua and smiling with her eyes curved.
Chihuahua...seems to be a dog that Wen Chu raised in his hometown.
Qi Yuan gritted her teeth, looked away and looked at the sleeping man. Why didn't she realize in the past that he had matured to such a heart-warming level?
Qi Yuan saw him folding his arms. She reached out and touched the back of his hand. In a split second, Gu Cheng opened his eyes, still hazy with sleep.
When he saw her face, he vaguely thought he saw Wen Chu, but he soon woke up, the sleepiness in his eyes faded, and he looked a little cold.
He retracted his long legs and sat up straight: "What are you doing here?"
Qi Yuan retracted her hand and watched him pour a glass of wine and drink it. Qi Yuan stared at his profile and said, "I want you to help me get back the role of Mingyue Wan'er."
Gu Cheng just swallowed a mouthful of wine and looked at her with his eyes.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
Qi Yuan gritted her teeth and said, "You should know how important this role is to me. She can't fall into the hands of anyone else. No one can do it."
Gu Cheng laughed.
It was short, but definitely not meant well, rather funny.
Qi Yuan approached him, stared at him and said, "Gu Cheng, I can be with you, but all the resources in your hands should be given to me."
Gu Cheng ignored her.
He took the phone from the table, clicked on it and swiped it, just in time to see a photo of Wen Chu and Xi Ning having dinner together. She was smiling brightly. Gu Cheng paused on the photo and touched Wen Chu's eyebrows with his fingertips.
Seeing that he ignored her, Qi Yuan turned around and saw that he was looking at Wen Chu's photo.
Qi Yuan grabbed his arm. Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows and pulled his hand back. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Can you please stop bothering me, Sister Qi Yuan?"
Qi Yuan glared angrily.
Gu Cheng leaned back, crossed his legs, and said, "I don't want to be with you, and I won't help you get any roles. I terminated Wen Chu's contract so that she could get this role smoothly. If she can't get it with her own ability, then I will use all my resources until Tangren Productions has no choice but to use her."
Qi Yuan was stunned, her whole body was stunned.
She shook her head: "You shouldn't do this."
Gu Cheng picked up the wine on the table and drank it slowly, his voice low and cold: "I have seen your oppression of Wen Chu over the years. I saw it all, so when I realized that I couldn't do this anymore, all of this backfired into my pain."
"I'm in pain now, so you can go away." Gu Cheng said, his eyes like sharp swords signaling her.
Qi Yuan looked up blankly at his distant, cold demeanor. She clutched her bag, her usual proud demeanor gradually crumbling.
A few seconds later.
She touched the sunglasses and car keys on the table. She looked at Gu Cheng and said in a tough tone, "Don't regret it."
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows with a look of disdain.
He sat back on the sofa and continued drinking.
Gu Ci was behind the bar. He walked over and looked at him: "Have you really thought clearly about what you want?"
Gu Cheng poured another glass of wine and played with it for a while: "It's very clear."
Gu Ci raised an eyebrow.
"The road ahead will probably be difficult..."
He didn't just say it was Wen Chu's side, there were other reasons as well.
-
The next day, Wen Chu and Zhu Ru went to sign the contract. Qimeng, as an old-established agency, was good at adjusting the remuneration, and the remuneration they offered was just right for Wen Chu's current worth.
Director Tang smiled upon seeing this and said, "You're indeed a well-established company. I was afraid you'd ask for too much. Only if we're honest and sincere with each other will there be more opportunities for cooperation in the future."
"Yes, Director Tang, if there are other dramas in the future, you must consider our Wen Chu more." Zhu Ru was generous and spoke with a smile, which made people feel comfortable.
Director Tang said, "Of course, of course."
He glanced at the time and smiled, "I was the last one to be cast as the female lead. I didn't want to compromise, so the filming has been delayed. Every day is burning money. Now that it's been cast, Wen Chu has to join the crew tomorrow. Let's get used to it after joining the crew."
"Okay."
"Let's go eat together at this time." Director Tang said.
Zhu Ru pulled Wen Chu and said with a smile, "Okay, let's treat Director Tang. What does Director Tang like to eat?"
Director Tang, accompanied by his assistant and screenwriter, said, "It's all fine. You arrange it."
Zhu Ru is very experienced in this field.
Director Tang was very satisfied with the selection of a classic restaurant. Wen Chu saw Zhu Ru's decisiveness, whether it was talking, booking a restaurant, or asking her assistant to bring two bottles of fine wine. She was very considerate of everything. It was a far cry from her lazily lying on the bed in Qimeng. Wen Chu couldn't help but admire her.
Zhu Ru pulled her to sit down and whispered, "Can you drink?"
Wen Chu blinked: "A little bit, is this red wine?"
"It's not ordinary red wine. If you can't drink it, tell me as soon as possible."
Wen Chu said, "What about you?"
Zhu Ru smiled and said, "I can drink."
Wen Chu thought that if she didn't drink, then Zhu Ru would be the one to drink, and she couldn't leave her alone, so she said, "It's okay for me to drink a little."
Zhu Ru patted her shoulder.
Sure enough, as soon as they sat down at the table, the first thing they did was drink. Wen Chu stuffed a few pieces of fish into his stomach and sent a message to Xi Ning, asking him which restaurant he was in, what he was doing, and whether he wanted to drink.
Xi Ning was busy with his manuscript, so he replied: Okay, I'll pick you up later.
Zhu Ru said this was not ordinary red wine.
Wen Chu felt it as soon as he drank half a glass, and the effect came on quickly, but Director Tang and the others remained calm. It was obvious that they were all good at drinking, even the screenwriter, who was studying the year of the wine.
Wen Chu held up his face and picked up some food to eat.
But as expected, Wen Chu got drunk. Director Tang laughed and said, "Teacher Wen can't drink. Don't let her drink in the future. It's troublesome to send her home when she's drunk."
Zhu Ru knew this director well. Unlike some directors in the circle, he was surrounded by beautiful women when he was young, and he was talented and had seen a lot.
He wasn't too keen on women now, so Zhu Ru dared to drink with him like this. After hearing what he said, Zhu Ru touched Wen Chu's hair and said with a smile: "Yes, then I won't let her drink at the dinner later."
Director Tang smiled and said, "Agent Zhu, you have to keep an eye on it."
"good."
After dinner, after drinking.
Zhu Ru was still quite sober, even the screenwriter was no match for her. She personally escorted them to the car, then turned back to help Wen Chu. Wen Chu stopped the damage in time, his drunkenness hazy but still conscious. The two of them left the restaurant. It was late, and the wind was blowing occasionally, making a loud noise.
Zhu Ru wants to call a taxi.
A black Porsche stopped and a tall man got out. Zhu Ru took a quick look and found that this kind of appearance was rare in the entertainment industry.
She had broad shoulders and long legs, and her watch was expensive; she must have come from a wealthy family. Gu Cheng came in front of them, lowering his eyes as he watched her supporting Wen Chu. Zhu Ru's heart skipped a beat, and she took a step back and asked, "Who are you?"
Gu Cheng took out his mobile phone and clicked on Wen Chu’s WeChat profile picture. His note was Chu Chu.
Zhu Ru was stunned.
She had Wen Chu’s WeChat and knew it was her.
Gu Cheng said in a low voice: "Her ex-boyfriend."
Zhu Ru was stunned and blinked: "Ex...ex-boyfriend?"
She suddenly understood something. Xingyao had terminated Wen Chu's contract and given away resources... The official Weibo account personally explained. Wen Chu had someone behind her, but that person... her wealthy ex-boyfriend.
Zhu Ru smiled and said, "Well, what are you here for?"
"I'll take her back."
"Since we've broken up, there's no need for that." Zhu Ru said.
Gu Cheng glanced at her and said, "You can come with me. I'll take you there."
Zhu Ru saw his toughness.
After some thought...
She glanced at the company van still on the road and said, "Okay, thank you for your help. What's your name?"
"Gu."
Zhu Ru raised her eyebrows.
Gu?
Is this the Gu she was thinking of? ....
Gu Cheng took Wen Chu from Zhu Ru, picked her up by the waist, and walked towards the car. Zhu Ru hurried to catch up, and they squeezed into the back seat. Gu Cheng closed the car door and started the car.
A pillow was stuffed in Wen Chu's arms. She smelled the familiar scent of agarwood in a daze. She opened her eyes slightly and saw the profile of the man in the driver's seat.
She leaned against the pillow and murmured, "Gu Cheng."
Zhu Ru glanced at Wen Chu.
Gu Cheng rolled up his sleeves, pinched the cigarette between his fingers, and replied to her: "Hmm?"
"Why are you here again? I don't want you anymore." Wen Chu said, holding his chin.
Gu Cheng: "...I want you, I'm pestering you."
Wen Chu looked out the window and whispered, "Can't you just get out of here?"
Gu Cheng: "....No."
Zhu Ru didn't dare to say a word. She searched on her phone: Gu Cheng.
Finally found it out, and was shocked, the four major families...the Gu family.
"Tell me, why do you and Qi Yuan bully me like that?" Wen Chu leaned against the pillow and said through gritted teeth.
Gu Cheng: "I'm sorry."
"I hate you so much."
Gu Cheng: "I'm sorry."
One is speaking, the other is apologizing.
Zhu Ru held her phone tightly and wanted to stuff cotton into her ears, but as Wen Chu's agent, she still had to know Wen Chu's network of relationships so that she could handle any subsequent issues.
Xi Ning sent a message to Zhu Ru, asking: Where are you?
Zhu Ru realized that Editor-in-Chief Xi was coming to pick someone up, so she quickly replied: Mr. Gu is here.
Xi Ning: ....this madman.
Zhu Ru: Why didn’t you tell me about Wen Chu and Gu Shao at the beginning?
Xi Ning: It’s not a glorious thing, what’s there to say.
Zhu Ru: Since I have this relationship with him, I can make use of it to some extent.
