Chapter 103 The Actress Who Competes with a Newcomer for the Best Actor 49
Yun Qing whispered to Gu Zezhi, "Have you read the script?"
Gu Zezhi shook his head, "Zhou Yi didn't hand it to me, so the script is probably a bit complicated."
Yun Qing fell silent, thinking of Director Zhao's infamous bad movies.
So this was a terrible script specifically tailored for Gu Zezhi?
However, Director Zhao seems very confident, as if he thinks that once Gu Zezhi finishes his vacation, he will definitely take on this role.
In the next private room, Sister Qi looked at the light in her artist's eyes, then glanced at Qi Zhao sitting next to the director, and frowned secretly.
She didn't actually want Su Xiao to take the script.
She had read the script, but found it incomprehensible, and the male supporting role was supposed to be Qi Zhao, who had climbed to the top by stepping on Ning Meng.
This guy is no pushover.
Although Su Xiao wasn't as brainless as Ning Meng, she didn't really want them to cooperate.
Su Xiao is her most popular artist, and she doesn't want her to be dragged into a quagmire for no reason.
Moreover, Director Zhao brought Qi Zhao along this time, which probably means he intends to create a scandal between Qi Zhao and Su Xiao. After all, if the male lead is Gu Zezhi, then it's impossible for him to create a scandal with the female lead.
She knew what Su Xiao was thinking. She felt that Director Zhao was very capable, having produced so many good works, and that this time might be another outstanding piece.
Moreover, there is the opportunity to work with Gu Zezhi, and even if it's just filming in a conventional way, it will be very beneficial.
In addition, Gu Zezhi is known for his sharp eye and ability to pick scripts, so he has never acted in any bad movies.
If the male lead is Gu Zezhi, she would be a fool not to take the role.
Keqi felt that Director Zhao was just making empty promises, and that Gu Zezhi would never accept such a script.
She smiled and said, "Director Zhao, Xiaoxiao really doesn't have the time."
Su Xiao was a little anxious, but out of trust in Sister Qi, she held back.
Sister Qi added, "However, Xiaoxiao has always admired Teacher Gu and hopes to learn from him to improve her acting skills. If Teacher Gu decides to play the male lead, I will do my best to help her adjust her schedule."
This means that if Gu Zezhi accepts the script, then we will accept it; if Gu Zezhi doesn't accept it, then we won't have the time.
Su Xiao was relieved.
Director Zhao was satisfied. He seemed to have never considered that Gu Zezhi would not accept the script, and said directly, "Then I wish us a pleasant collaboration in advance."
Yun Qing: ...
She now understood why Director Zhao's bad films were so heavily criticized, yet he could still maintain a positive attitude and occasionally produce good films.
That confidence is simply unbeatable!
They had just finished serving their food when the people in the next private room were already preparing to leave.
Just as Yun Qing was happily gnawing on a pig's trotter, she suddenly heard Ning Meng's tearful voice coming from outside.
"Sister Qi, please help me!"
Sister Qi said coldly, "You are no longer my artist. If you have any problems, you should contact your current manager."
With a sense of desperation and despair, Ning Meng shouted at the top of her lungs, "Sister Qi, you can't just stand by and watch me die! Gu Zezhi is going to lock me up in a mental hospital, he's a madman!"
Suddenly, everything went quiet.
Yun Qing viciously gnawed the pig's trotter clean in a few bites, then picked up the bone and prepared to have a good talk with Ning Meng.
Gu Zezhi quickly pulled the person back and pressed him onto his lap, amused, and asked, "What are you planning to do with that bone?"
Yun Qing angrily said, "I'll smash her to death!"
Gu Zezhi lowered his head and buried it in the crook of her neck, chuckling softly, "Have you thought of a trending topic yet? Actress Lin dueling with a pig bone?"
Yun Qing pursed her lips and muttered, "Actually, it must hurt quite a bit to hit someone with this bone."
Gu Zezhi hugged the person and coaxed, "Don't be angry. Look at all this delicious food. You haven't even eaten yet. Why bother arguing with an idiot?"
After he finished speaking, he wrapped his arm around her, peeled a shrimp, and fed it to her.
Yun Qing's anger was extinguished by the delicious food, and she finally put down the pork bone.
While the two were talking quietly and enjoying their meal, Ning Meng outside was on the verge of a breakdown.
Sister Qi didn't seem to care about her at all and simply took Su Xiao and left.
"Sister Qi..."
Ning Meng tried to chase after him, but Qi Zhao grabbed her.
Qi Zhao sighed with a complicated expression, "Ning Meng, can you please wake up? Teacher Gu doesn't like you, so stop bothering him. If you deliberately smear him, it will only make him hate you more."
Ning Meng wanted to shake off his hand and chase after Sister Qi, knowing that Sister Qi could definitely help her if she wanted to.
Ning Meng has now been sidelined by the company. The company is very angry about what she caused and even won't let her into the company gate.
Sister Qi is very busy and doesn't want to get involved in Ning Meng's affairs anymore, so it's not easy for Ning Meng to see her.
Now that she's finally seen him, she naturally can't just give up.
But Qi Zhao held on tightly, and she couldn't shake him off at all. She could only watch helplessly as Sister Qi walked out the door, got into the car, and left.
Ning Meng has been repeatedly tormented by feelings of despair lately, and has been on the verge of collapse.
Qi Zhao wants to continue acting and maintain his persona.
Ning Meng suddenly went berserk and rammed into him, pushing him forcefully.
Caught off guard, Qi Zhao stumbled and fell, accidentally knocking over a vase. The sound of the vase shattering rang in his ears as he fell, leaving everyone stunned.
Before he could react, Ning Meng had already straddled him and started scratching and hitting his face.
"Qi Zhao! You're the one who made me like this! I treated you as a friend, but you framed me and used me to climb to the top. Why don't you just die!"
No one expected Ning Meng to be so crazy. Qi Zhao's manager came to his senses and hurriedly went over to pull Ning Meng away.
Ning Meng was very unwilling. Qi Zhao deserved to be in such a bad situation, so why was he completely unscathed and even became famous?
Seeing that Qi Zhao's agent had grabbed one of her arms and was trying to pull her away, the restaurant owner also led his men and ran over.
Ning Meng became furious, picked up a shard of broken porcelain from the side, kicked away Qi Zhao's hand that was protecting his face, and then raised her hand and stabbed it hard into Qi Zhao's face.
As Qi Zhao's agent forcefully pulled her away, the porcelain shards cut a long gash on Qi Zhao's face.
Qi Zhao's face was covered in blood, and he screamed in agony.
"My face...my eyes..."
Qi Zhao curled up like a shrimp in pain, his other intact eye filled with panic.
He finally became popular, and he's about to star in Director Zhao's movie, playing a proper second male lead.
He will become more and more popular until he plays the male lead and wins the Best Actor award.
But now his face is injured, his eyes are injured, and everything is going to be ruined!
Ning Meng had already been pulled away. She was being held back, but she was still glaring at Qi Zhao, laughing maniacally, "Serves you right! Karma!"
She had used all her strength in that movement, and her hand was also injured, but she seemed not to feel any pain.
I felt a surge of relief as all the fear, anxiety, and resentment that had been building up inside me was finally released.
Yun Qing and Gu Zezhi naturally heard the commotion.
Yun Qing was taken aback. "Something's happened."
She never expected Ning Meng to actually hurt someone; judging from Qi Zhao's screams, he must be seriously injured.
Shen Can said that Ning Meng was particularly afraid of going to jail for secretly live streaming.
Is she no longer afraid of going to jail?
Gu Zezhi frowned, about to say something, when suddenly an even louder commotion arose outside.
After Ning Meng went crazy, she suddenly became very quiet.
The others were busy calling the police and an ambulance, checking on Qi Zhao's condition, and cleaning up the broken porcelain shards to prevent him from getting injured again.
I didn't have time to pay attention to her for a while.
Seeing that she was no longer so crazy, the person holding her loosened his grip and leaned over to look at Qi Zhao.
At this moment, the person who called the police said, "The police will be here soon."
The word "police" instantly triggered Ning Meng. She suddenly shook off the hand of the person holding her and rushed towards the door.
The man snapped out of his daze and hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Stop right there!"
Seeing Ning Meng rushing forward recklessly, the restaurant owner shouted urgently, "Stop her!"
His restaurant is right in front of a main road with lots of cars coming and going, and Ning Meng actually rushed straight into the road. Was she trying to kill herself?
When Yun Qing and Gu Zezhi came out of the private room, they saw Ning Meng being hit by a car and run over on the road in front of the gate.
Gu Zezhi quickly covered Yun Qing's eyes and hugged her, "Don't be afraid..."
