The progress of the film was going well and for some reason, Zhuang Heng had been performing exceptionally well in the past few days although he was always known to make mistakes. Even Yan Jinyi had more NG takes than him.
After filming a sweaty fight scene, Yan Jinyi sat on a recliner with a cup of milk tea.
“Director Tao, Director Tao, look at the latest hot search topics. Lin Chenggong has promoted his new movie, and even announced the filming period. Is it going to be released together with our film?”
Tao Wei, who was trying to get more information about Second Young Mistress Huo from Yan Jinyi, stopped smiling when he heard that. He took out his cell phone sullenly.
Most of the hot search topics were about Lin Chenggong and his new film.
“Filming of ‘Islander’ is ongoing, taking ‘Female Fortress Leader’ head-on.”
“Competition between up-and-coming director and passé director.”
“Lin Chenggong’s new film has an all-star cast.”
…
The further down he scrolled, Tao Wei’s face grew even more sullen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYan Jinyi had already searched the entire hot search list and learned that a famous director of the industry had already gotten ready to produce a new film. The actors were all ready.
They did not do it on purpose either and the male lead was Zhuang Heng’s arch nemesis, an actor who had been getting suppressed by Zhuang Heng. On the other hand, the female lead was the best actress, Liu Ran.
‘Are they trying to suppress us with the cast?’
Yan Jinyi smiled with contempt and turned to look at Tao Wei. “Director Tao, are you scared?”
“Scared of Lin Chenggong? Why would I be scared of a scumbag who turns his back against everyone and resorts to lowly means to make a name for himself?”
“Okay.”
Yan Jinyi was a little curious. Lin Chenggong managed to become popular because of a hit suspense film that he had directed. Many actors hoped to cooperate with him.
Besides, he had a good reputation even though he was a little arrogant.
“Does Director Tao have something against Lin Chenggong?”
At the mention of Lin Chenggong,Tao Wei’s eyes were full of hatred. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, wishing he could chop that person up into pieces.
Such hatred…
“Lin Chenggong is my junior and we used to share a close relationship. I used to share all my inspiration with him.”
Yan Jinyi had already gotten ready to hear a good story.
“Later on, something happened and an actor made a grave mistake, causing the entire production to be delayed because of the investigation. He went round spreading rumors and caused my reputation to be tarnished. Even my benefactor doesn’t believe me anymore. He took the chance to take over me as director. They then began suppressing me again.”
‘It’s no wonder.’
‘But then again, isn’t this normal?’
Ever since ancient times, the world has always been about the survival of the fittest.
There had been various examples of the vile bullying the honest and upright people, especially in the entertainment industry.
Yan Jinyi had been wanting to live a good life and since she wanted to be better than others, she had to be good at martial arts.
However, it was an era of civilization so she had to use money and power to establish authority.
“Director Tao, what do you think of Lin Chenggong’s new film?”
“Our main character is a female bandit while theirs is a male pirate. Isn’t that mimicking our plot?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe refused to admit that he had plagiarized someone else’s work and resorted to unscrupulous means to win higher votes.
That was Lin Chenggong’s capabilities.
Lin Chenggong just liked going against others. There was a newbie director who got forced to switch careers because of him.
“The comments about us on the Internet are negative.”
There were even many haters of Zhuang Heng who emerged and said that he relied on his good looks to make a living. They slammed him for having no professional ethics.
As for Yan Jinyi…
She was a minor actor in the first place, so there was no big deal with being hated on.
“Do you think we will lose?”
Tao Wei looked at Yan Jinyi in bewilderment.
“Lin Chenggong is clearly trying to vie with us for the box office sales. Director Tao, will we lose?”
Tao Wei hesitated.
He was confident in his film but not in himself.
Seeing this, Yan Jinyi’s face immediately turned glum. “In this case, I think I’d better get Second Young Mistress Huo to withdraw the investment. Her money doesn’t grow on trees.”
