Chapter 73: Gunpowder Smell
Very quickly, she found out that while the Fang family had spent 100 million in this movie, the Mu family had spent 110 million to become the biggest investor!
Fang Mo’er, “…”
She could finally understand Bai Rong’s feelings when she had found out that the Fang family was the biggest investor. Her mood was now like a dog in h.e.l.l.
Fang Mo’er went to the Star Dream Era company.
!!
She continued with her acting lessons.
Little Tian ran over and said to her, “Sister Fang, Manager Shen is looking for you!”
Yesterday, when Fang Mo’er had given Little Tian the watch, she had revealed her ident.i.ty to her and informed her that she was about to be part of the drama show. She had told her to be prepared.
At the same time, Fang Mo’er had asked Little Tian to pa.s.s one of the other watches to Lang Qi.
However, Fang Mo’er had not expected that Lang Qi, who was wearing the new watch, would be in Shen Yue’s office.
Lang Qi looked at Fang Mo’er in surprise, his expression was unfamiliar and distant.
Shen Yue said, “This is Fang Mo’er, the female lead in the movie and also an artiste in this company. As the male lead, you should take care of her in the future.”
Fang Mo’er still had very little acting experience, so she was very respectful to Lang Qi. “Senior Lang, please advise me.”
Lang Qi glanced at Little Tian who was beside Fang Mo’er. “Why is Little Tian here?”
Shen Yue said, “I’ve asked Little Tian to join Fang Mo’er’s team. From now on, Little Tian will be her a.s.sistant.”
Little Tian blinked her eyes.
Lang Qi frowned. “What about the Veiled Queen? Won’t she be losing her a.s.sistant?”
He had only just received the Veiled Queen’s watch, but in the blink of an eye, the Veiled Queen’s a.s.sistant had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away.
Initially, he had quite a good impression of Fang Mo’er. But now, it seemed that Fang Mo’er wasn’t that nice. She had s.n.a.t.c.hed someone else’s a.s.sistant the moment she arrived.
Shen Yue smiled and said, “The Veiled Queen is currently in advanced studies and doesn’t need an a.s.sistant.”
Only then did Lang Qi put away the displeasure on his face. He extended his hand to Fang Mo’er and said, “Miss Fang, you can ask me if there’s anything you don’t know about acting!”
He had heard that Fang Mo’er had joined the cast through the investor’s influence and had never learned acting before.
Lang Qi did not have much hope for this newbie actress who was going to be his partner.
A few days later, Fang Mo’er finally received the latest version of the script.
The moment she received the doc.u.ment, Fang Mo’er immediately dropped everything and ran into the lounge to read the script.
When she saw it, she immediately understood and muttered to herself, “My part has been deleted here!
“There are more scenes of the supporting actress suffering when she was young.
“And here, why has a thrilling action scene been added for me!?”
“That’s too sinister. In the end, the female lead doesn’t die but becomes a vegetable instead. Once the male lead realizes the importance of his sister, he stays by her side and doesn’t get married. The female lead then leaves and goes far away!”
“Pfft!” Fang Mo’er spat out the mineral water in her mouth.
The other party had forcefully rewritten the script to turn the second female lead into the female lead.
This adaptation was too brilliant.
The script now justified a lot more and created a poignant feeling of unattainable love.
Fang Mo’er counted and discovered that in the whole movie, there were at least five parts where she was in danger. Things like escaping from the jaws of a tiger, falling into a trap, falling from a high alt.i.tude, and so on. Every time, she would escape because of the nimble movements of the female lead.
Bai Rong was trying to torture her to death.
No, she was dissatisfied!
Did she think that Fang Mo’er would not be able to film these scenes and would eventually retreat?
She was truly being underestimated. She definitely had to continue filming.
There were only three days to study the script and soon, it was time for the opening ceremony.
During the opening ceremony, not only were all the main actors present, even the two major investors had sent their representatives to attend.
Fang Han from the Fang family.
And Mu Ye from the Mu family.
A 200 million yuan investment was more than enough for a youth idol drama.
One after another, as the reporters present reported on the strong collaboration between the two big families, they could sense the tension that was like the smell of gunpowder in the air.
Bai Rong stood with the Mu family’s young master, while Fang Mo’er stood with Fang Han.
Neither side was willing to look at the other.
Meanwhile, Lang Qi and the director were sandwiched in the middle.
The atmosphere was very strange and unharmonious.
The photos that were taken were even more bizarre. They were either rolling their eyes here or there.
However, the words that came out of their mouths were all the same as the official ones.
The Mu family said that they had invested in the show because it would very good to watch.
The Fang family also praised the Mu family for their good taste. Fang Mo’er’s acting skills would definitely sell the film. The other party was sure to make a profit.
Bai Rong also said that she would humbly learn from the company’s boss and hoped that Fang Mo’er could lead her to a higher position.
After the opening ceremony ended, they went their separate ways.
The Mu family’s eldest young master, Mu Ye, was usually very busy. If not for the fact that the Mu family’s old master had insisted that he come to the production team to support Bai Rong, he would not have been willing to come.
But there was nothing he could do. After all, Bai Wong was carrying the flesh and blood of the Mu family. The old master had even asked him to visit the set from time to time. He could not allow Bai Rong and her unborn child to suffer.
