She really didn't want her little girl to go through the same suffering she had endured.
Even if she knew that the little girl was now protected by the King of Hell, did that conflict with her desire to protect the little one in front of her?
"Don't worry, don't worry, everything will be fine." Song Mengmeng patted Yao Anna's back, gently comforting Yao Anna who was still clearly not relaxed: "Even if Yin Jiaqi wants to cause trouble, she can't come up with anything new at this point! She only knows that her assistant secretly recorded it, but she doesn't realize that I'm not unprepared either!"
As she spoke, she waved to her assistant Rongrong, who had been standing beside her the whole time. Rongrong smiled and nodded, saying, "It's all recorded, and it's very clear."
If Yin Jiaqi dares to cut out the beginning and end of what she just secretly recorded and post it online, she will release the full version and crush her!
While Song Mengmeng was well-prepared, Yin Jiaqi's agent clearly didn't take Song Mengmeng, who only had tens of thousands of Weibo followers, seriously. She even scolded Yin Jiaqi over the phone.
Basically, it means that for someone like her with her current mediocre status, becoming a big star won't be easy. If she gives up at the first sign of trouble, then she won't get any benefits in the future.
"Qiqi, think about it, how many actresses are there at your level? And how many have less popularity than you? Do you know how many people are desperately trying to get in every day?!"
That Song Mengmeng is one of the newcomers who wants to replace you!
She's younger than you, prettier than you, and even a better actress! Now she's signed with Dixing, and although she's not making a big splash right now, don't forget that her first decent role was in a drama like this, which she got through her own audition!
If you don't believe me, just wait and see. If this drama becomes a huge hit, it will only be a matter of time before she surpasses you in status!
Our company is far inferior to Dixing; our resources are definitely not as good as theirs!
Are you really willing to let her, this newcomer, trample on you?!
Think about it, if you succeed this time, no matter how high she is praised in the future, she will never be able to shake off this dark history! And every time someone mentions it, your name will be remembered!
This is a golden opportunity that could make you incredibly wealthy! And now you're telling me you're going to back out?!
"Qiqi, you really need to think this through! The company has signed several new artists this time. If you don't seize this opportunity, I can't help you anymore!"
"Sister Yu, calm down. I'm not saying I want to back down, but I just feel like there's something strange about Song Mengmeng." Yin Jiaqi was startled by her manager's words. She knew her awkward position at this moment, so she dared not offend her manager in the slightest. However, she was also worried about confronting Song Mengmeng right now.
If it succeeds, all the better. But what if it fails...?
"Alright, I've already looked into it for you. This Song Mengmeng has been in the industry for quite a while, but she hasn't had any good resources in the last year or two! Besides, her previous agency was notoriously bad! Just dig up some of her past scandals and you're guaranteed to win!"
Just watch, the previous allegations that she bullied the crew members can still be found on Weibo. This time, saying she bullied you, combined with that message, will be enough to solidify her reputation as a repeat offender!
Didn't you say she was getting very close to Yao Anna on set? Perfect, you can also subtly criticize Yao Anna and see what kind of friends she's making!
The agent acted swiftly and skillfully, painting a rosy picture of Yin Jiaqi's future with just a few words, completely putting Yin Jiaqi's initial apprehension at ease.
She thanked her agent, Sister Yu, again before hanging up the phone with full confidence.
It's true that she can't compete with Yao Anna in acting skills, but surely she can take down Song Mengmeng, who seems clueless and only knows how to eat and drink?!
The afternoon's scenes weren't particularly demanding; they mainly consisted of two young women, both imperial concubines living in the same courtyard, visiting each other. Through their conversation, the scenes indirectly introduced the situation of the other imperial concubines who had entered the palace.
Therefore, the requirements for the dialogue are exceptionally high!
After all, the director of this series has never liked post-production dubbing; he prefers live sound recording with rich emotion.
So many times, getting stuck is because of the lines!
This is why Song Mengmeng was able to completely shut down Yin Jiaqi with just one sentence this morning.
After all, in other plays you can count sheep on the spot, but in a play like this, you can only memorize your lines obediently, otherwise the director will yell at you like a dog in front of all the staff.
Yin Jiaqi's intensive study session at noon was quite effective; she managed to memorize the entire script for the afternoon's scene.
After the director asked if everything was ready and received an affirmative answer, the scene was finally filmed.
When Song Mengmeng said she was ready, she wasn't just saying it casually. The moment she opened her mouth, her overflowing emotions overwhelmed Yin Jiaqi, who was only at the stage of memorizing her lines. Despite both being newly arrived palace maids, Song Mengmeng's words were like those of a noble consort addressing a lowly concubine who came to pay her respects. It was a drastic and overwhelming display of emotion that made one want to light a candle for Yin Jiaqi and sigh in pity.
The director, his face dark, couldn't hold back and called for a stop. Then, he patiently went over the scene with Yin Jiaqi again. After seeing Yin Jiaqi nodding apologetically and listening to his advice very seriously, even though the director was still angry, he couldn't really lash out at such a young girl.
So, after explaining the scene, the director quickly stepped aside and told the two actors to prepare for a reshoot.
Then……
This was repeated five or six times in a row.
Even the most patient director couldn't hold back in this situation! He immediately ignited old grudges and new ones, launching into a tirade against Yin Jiaqi, and stating unequivocally that no matter how much capital intervened this time, there would be no place for Yin Jiaqi in his production team.
Yin Jiaqi cried her heart out, unaware that the most despairing thing was yet to come.
Just as she was on set getting repeated NGs and the director told her to get out, a trending topic on Weibo broke out about Song Mengmeng bullying her and refusing to act with her.
This seemed to be the only opportunity and lifeline that Yin Jiaqi could grasp. Thinking of this, Yin Jiaqi didn't care about anything else. She wiped away her tears and pointed at Song Mengmeng, complaining to the director with a face full of resentment: "Director, I know my acting is bad, but, but this time it's all her fault!"
