Chapter 201. The antagonist (3)"I will finally be able to meet Brother Ren."
Xiao Rin has hurriedly come to the company after finis.h.i.+ng her photoshoot for the magazine. She wanted to meet Ren because it"s been a long time since he has meet him.
She even thought that they can go to lunch together but when she came to the company, many employees were talking about Ren.
They were muttering things like "Disappearance" and whatnot. She felt worried when she heard that.
That"s why, she went towards the office of Director Zhao to know about the situation. She has a feeling that something has happened to Ren.
"What is going on? Where had he disappeared to?"
"I don"t know. I am trying to contact him to but his phone is switched off."
"Ah, I thought my department never had any problems but this is a major problem now."
When she reached Director Zhao"s office, she heard various noises coming out of his office. She didn"t waste time knocking and directly entered his office.
There were four people in the large office. They were White bear, Jiang Wan, Director Kang and Director Zhao.
"Director Zhao, what is going on?"
She asked without wasting any time.
"Ah, that, Xiao Rin, what are you doing here? Weren"t you on a photoshoot?"
"I came back since it was wrapped up sooner than I thought but what"s going on here?"
"It"s nothing. Just a small problem."
Director Zhao didn"t wanted to tell Xiao Rin about this matter. The less people know, the more better for him.
If the information about his disappearance leaked, then the media will surely promote it on its own and it will become more and more difficult to control it.
There were already some people spreading the news in the company, so they had to quickly do something about it.
"I don"t think it"s a small problem."
Xiao Rin didn"t back down in front of Director Zhao.
He may be a director and her superior in the company but Xiao Rin was not the same little scared girl, her att.i.tude hads changed considerably since becoming an celebrity.
It was also a matter about Ren, so she definitely has to know about it.
"Well…."
"I think you should tell her."
"Huh?"
Director Zhao looked at Director Kang when he heard that. His face was full of questions.
"Telling her would not escalate the matter and I don"t think that Xiao Rin will back down until we tell her about it."
"I won"t."
Xiao Rin said as if she was agreeing with Director Kang. Different celebrities would have different att.i.tudes and it was necessary to understand their att.i.tude to manage them well.
In the case of Xiao Rin, she may be obedient most of the time but it would not take her much time to transform into a troublemaker.
Especially when the matter is about Ren.
Director Kang understood it well. That"s why, she proposed to tell everything to Xiao Rin and after hearing about the matter, there was a tinge of worry in her eyes.
"Don"t you have a clue as to where he can be?"
She asked sweeping her gaze upon everyone and finally stopping it on White bear but he just shook his head and replied.
"No, I don"t. If I knew where he was, then I would have already told you about it. He just messaged me to not disturb him."
White bear even brought out his phone and showed everyone the message Ren had sent him a week ago.
[I am going to prepare for my role. Don"t worry about me. I will come back before the audition.]
It was a really short message but it explained that Ren has gone somewhere to prepare for his role but no one knows where he was.
He hadn"t told anyone about the place he was in, not even his manager and close friend, White bear.
"It is more of a disadvantageous situation for us if he has gone to prepare for his role."
Director Zhao said suddenly, attracting everyone"s attention to him.
"What do you mean?"
"You should know that Ren was going to audition for a drama called «Slayers» by Director Chen Pu."
"Yes, it was a historical fantasy drama and it will be the comeback of Director Chen Pu."
Jiang Wan answered him and everyone nodded their heads at his words.
"I have thought that this drama will help Ren to solidify his position as an actor in the industry and help him to grow as an actor but the character Ren is auditioning for is not normal."
"Huh?"
"I haven"t read the full screenplay before but after reading it, I realised that the character Ren was auditioning for was too dark."
"Do you mean he is playing a character like Jay from «Secret spy»?"
Director Zhao shook his head and replied.
"No, there can"t be comparison between them. Director Chen Pu works are known for their great antagonist and villainous characters but this time, it was not the level of villainous but inhumane."
"So, you are fearing that he will lose himself in the character."
Director Kang said the words Director Zhao wanted to say for a long time.
Losing oneself in one own"s characters!!
It was hard to believe it but there was not one time when an actor has lost himself in a character and has forgotten his own personality.
Many actors have lost their whole career because of this. Normally, it will only happen when playing some complex or dark characters.
And Cao Xu was one such character.
There was full chance that Ren can lose himself in that character and it can greatly backfire on him, especially when he"s career was booming.
"Brother Ren…."
Xiao Rin silently muttered when she heard all that. She was feeling that Ren will do something outrageous to play this character.
She was confident that he will do the same. She can say that because she knew it well.
"Anyway, we should report it to the CEO."
"Yes, that will be the most logical choice."
As they were about to go to the CEO"s office, White bear suddenly received a message.
"Whose message it is?"
"Ren."
"Huh??"
"Ren has messaged me his current location!!"
White bear exclaimed as he looked at his phone in shock and surprise.
