Chapter 70 Confrontation



That day, Ruan Mowei didn't know how she got home.

She closed the door and hid in the room. Meng Yao kept calling her outside, but she didn't want to go out.

Gu Mingche only found out about this in the evening. He had been in a meeting and did not receive Meng Yao's call at all.

At the same time, a lot of negative information about Ruan Mowei appeared on the Internet, saying that she had poor morals and improper behavior. There were many photos of her at various banquets, and the people around her were all different.

When he learned that there was a problem with the contract, he hurried to Ruan Mowei's home.

After Ruan Mowei came out of the company she signed with, Xie Liancheng received a call from the director. He didn't say anything, but just informed Ruan Mowei that the role had been decided by another person.

Xie Liancheng wanted to ask for clarification, but the other party quickly hung up the phone.

For this project, Xie Liancheng prepared a lot and even invested a lot of money to pave the way for Ruan Mowei.

Something that was clearly a sure thing still went wrong.

"I need to find a way to book an appointment with that director. I need to ask him why it became like this. Something must have gone wrong along the way."

The director had to give Mr. Xie face. He was not a well-known person in the circle. He had only won an award once and had no good scripts since then. He was just wasting his time to gain popularity.

Now, when Xie Liancheng asked him to meet him, he was actually mentally prepared, but both sides were big shots, so he couldn't just be perfunctory.

After all, he has been in this circle for so long, so he is not completely unprepared.

The place Xie Liancheng found was a restaurant that was only open to members. The director had wanted to go to this place for a long time, but never had the chance.

"Hello, Mr. Xie. I didn't expect you to invite me here for dinner. I'm really flattered!"

Xie Liancheng had asked someone and naturally knew that he wanted to come here.

"Really? That's a coincidence. Sit down!"

The two of them sat down, and the director was also well prepared.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Xie, this matter is not up to me. I have people above me!"

This short script is designed to promote a newcomer, so most of the actors who come to perform are unknown newcomers, but there is also a group of veteran actors sitting in to play supporting roles, just to bring these people into the play.

Xie Liancheng only cares about these things. After all, Ruan Mowei's acting skills are much better than that newcomer.

The director and others originally heard that it was Mr. Xie who recommended it, and thought that it would bring new funds, so of course they agreed.

However, their company is not a small company, just a little bit stronger than Xie Jiaqiang. Moreover, they are originally in the entertainment industry, and President Xie also thought of this.

So, after hearing what the director said, he wasn't that surprised.

"I know this matter clearly. I asked you here not only because I wanted to know who the new person who replaced Ruan Mowei is? Why haven't I heard of him before?"

When the director heard Xie Liancheng ask this, he didn't say anything. It happened that the people outside had already served the dishes.

"I've known for a long time that the signature dish here can't be found anywhere else. Just look at the taste, it's truly a delicacy!"

Seeing him like this, Xie Liancheng didn't say anything. It seemed that the problem lay with this newcomer.

The assistant next to him gave the collected information to Xie Liancheng. There was nothing particularly noteworthy about it. It seemed that there was no financial backer, father, or the like.

This made Xie Liancheng a little confused. If that was the case, why didn't the director say anything?

"Director, if you have something to say, just say it. We are the only ones here, and I will be involved in the entertainment industry in the future. Maybe we will work together again."

The director paused for a moment, then continued.

"Mr. Xie, we're not here to eat. Let's eat first. You must be tired after working all day. I'll talk to you after we finish eating."

The director seemed to be really taboo about it, so after hesitating for a while, he ate it anyway.

"This place is really great. I thought people outside were exaggerating!"

The director looked very satisfied while eating, but Xie Liancheng was a little annoyed.

I thought that the money I invested this time was actually not worth it at all.

After everyone on the other side had eaten and drunk their fill, the director said goodbye to Xie Liancheng, and saw that he looked a little embarrassed.

"Mr. Xie, do you know where Mr. Gu is now? He should know about this matter. There is a lot of news about Mr. Gu online, and it's not good news. As Mr. Gu's family, of course we won't let that news come true."

Xie Liancheng couldn't imagine that the problem happened to them. He didn't know what the relationship between Gu Mingche and his family was.

After waiting for the director to leave, the assistant behind him told him what happened in the Gu family a few days ago.

"I heard that Mr. Gu's mother fell ill some time ago, and Mr. Gu took Miss Ruan to the hospital. When she came back, she didn't look very good. Mr. Gu's secretary was at the hospital the whole time."

They didn't know about this kind of thing originally, but they didn't know how these rumors spread.

After hearing this, Xie Liancheng understood what was going on and called Gu Mingche directly.

While on the way to Ruan Mowei's house, Gu Mingche suddenly received a call.

Xie Liancheng didn't say anything, but just told Gu Mingche the news, hoping that he could handle the matter.

Upon learning that it was because of Gu's mother, Gu Mingche stopped the car on the side of the road, slammed the steering wheel hard, then turned around and planned to go home to ask Gu's mother.

When I got home, Gu's mother was having dinner. She was delighted to see Gu Mingche come in suddenly.

However, thinking that the two of them were still arguing, he did not get up.

"You're back, do you want to eat?"

Gu Mingche looked at his mother, who was leisurely and seemed to be waiting for him to come back, and felt a little angry. He didn't understand why she didn't like Ruan Mowei at all.

"Did you get rid of the cast of our company's drama? Why do you keep targeting Ruan Mowei?"

Gu's mother knew that he would come over for this matter, but she didn't expect that the first thing Gu Mingche said to her when he came back was this.

"You've become too independent! I told you not to associate with that little star, why didn't you listen?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel in the restaurant, Mother Gu still felt a little soft-hearted.

"You should have just gotten off work..."

Gu Mingche is very upset now and doesn't want to eat. Xie Liancheng is his partner. If he withdraws his investment because of this incident, they will have no chance in the future.

"Why don't you like Ruan Mowei? She's the hope of our company!"

All he talked about was Ruan Mowei. Since he came back, Gu Mingche hadn't said a word of concern, and his mother was also angry.

"You told me why I don't like him, my son. He only questions me when he comes home and doesn't care about my health. Have you forgotten that I just came back from the hospital a few days ago?"

Gu Mingche was speechless for a moment, but he still wanted to talk to Gu's mother about Ruan Mowei.

"I won't agree to you raising Ruan Mowei. If you don't give up, I will continue to make Ruan Mowei lose opportunities. She wants to realize her dream, but she can only dream!"

This made Gu Mingche very angry. Mother Gu couldn't bear to hear anything about Ruan Mowei at all, as it would only make things worse.
