The director wanted to say, I've already asked, there's nothing to ask. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Gu Ziming holding Qiao Man's hand and walking over.
Although it was getting dark, the film crew had their lights on, so it was also very bright.
Gu Ziming pulled Qiao Man's hand and walked over step by step. Seeing their expressions, the director had a bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be that Qiao Man had already blown wind on Gu Ziming's pillow, and then Young Master Gu had changed his mind?
The director had countless thoughts in his mind as he braced himself and walked forward.
"Young Master Gu, when did you come?"
"Two in the afternoon." Gu Ziming said.
Two? Since it was already past five, the director clearly knew where Gu Ziming was during these three hours.
Just as they were talking, Cao Yu came over.
Xia Yingying saw the tears on Cao Yu's face and had a bad premonition. She looked at Qiao Man, who had a smile on her lips.
Xia Yingying couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth. Since Qiao Man had climbed onto Gu Ziming, the Female One would definitely return the favor.
But, Qiao Man was just Gu Ziming's lover, how long could she be proud of herself?
"Young Master Gu, you're here, why didn't you inform me?" The director laughed and asked again. He asked the staff to bring a chair over and invited Gu Ziming to sit.
Gu Ziming did not sit, but gave his seat to Qiao Man instead.
"I have some private matters to attend to." Gu Ziming replied to the director.
The meaning behind these words, was that he came for Qiao Man.
The director didn't know how to reply and just chuckled.
"Director, before the filming of this movie, there is something that we agreed on."
"No matter how much you want, I will give it to you. But the heroine in this movie must be Qiao Man." Gu Ziming said indifferently. After walking in the entertainment circle for so many years and creating an entertainment company, he was no longer the brat he was back then.
Regardless of whether it was the aura he exuded or his tone of voice, he exuded an aura that others couldn't ignore. Just his gaze alone was sufficient to suppress the other party.
This kind of man was formed through time and experience.
"Yes, yes, yes." The director immediately followed Gu Ziming's words.
He was flustered by Gu Ziming's words.
"Young Master Gu, before we switched roles, I called you. You said it." The director explained.
"All right?" Gu Ziming laughed, "I don't remember having said it clearly."
On the phone, he said, "I know."
The director was determined to change Qiao Man and take Gu Ziming's words as a "Ok".
"You said 'I know'." The director said.
"Then how do you say it's' good '?" Gu Ziming laughed lightly, his hand on Qiao Man's shoulder.
"This movie said that the Female One was Qiao Man. No matter how bad her performance is, it is still hers."
Gu Ziming said in a serious tone, his tone was extremely sharp, intimidating the director so much that he did not know what to say.
The director really did not expect Gu Ziming to come, and even had arrived on set so quickly.
At that time, he understood that Gu Ziming agreed to it because he wanted to use Qiao Man to go back and report.
Waiting for Gu Ziming to come over and settle the matter, half of the plot was captured. For the benefit of the company, they wanted Gu Ziming to compromise, and in the end decided to let Cao Yu be the Female One.
"Young Master Gu, it's Qiao Man's acting that's too lousy." The director said as he looked down at Qiao Man who was sitting on the chair and watching the show.
"She can't see what she's doing."
As the director said, he wanted to go back and let Gu Ziming see Qiao Man's performance.
"I can't let her ruin my play."
Director in a hurry said. He had put in a lot of effort and money into this movie.
No, Gu Ziming had spent all the money for this play.
"I just said, no matter how bad her performance is, Female One is still hers." Gu Ziming said coldly, and looked at the director coldly.
"Director, do you need me to explain more clearly?"
Gu Ziming continued, "I am doing it for Qiao Man, to throw money in your movie."
"If you insist on switching out, then that's fine too. Spit out all the money I gave you." Gu Ziming said softly, looking at the director, he chuckled, "You have to compensate me for my losses."
"You broke your promise."
If the director didn't want Qiao Man, then it was a breach of contract. Gu Ziming not only wanted to withdraw his money, he also wanted to lose money.
Hearing this, the director took a step back.
Gu Ziming had spent a lot of money on this movie, whether it was the costumes, the lights, or the scenes, they were all used the best by the director.
With money, all of these things were nothing.
Moreover, this script was very outstanding. As long as the actors' acting skills were better, then this movie would definitely become very popular.
Once Gu Ziming withdrew his funds, he would have to compensate Gu Ziming. Not only would this not work, he would also lose everything.
To find other Investor, let alone if Gu Ziming would set him up in the middle, just where would he be able to find his in such a short period of time!
Gu Ziming was forcing him!
"Gu Ziming, don't go too far." The director gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
The Investor was the real owner of the film crew. In this drama, Gu Ziming praised Qiao Man with all his strength and never thought of letting the other Investor in.
For Qiao Man's sake, he would keep his word in this movie.
"I'm just going too far." Gu Ziming smiled and said.
The director was so angry by Gu Ziming that his face turned pale, he clenched his fists tightly. No matter how much he hated Gu Ziming, even if he did not agree with his words, he could not do anything about it.
The other members of the crew were even more afraid to make a sound. This was between the Investor and the director, they had no right to ask.
Cao Yu watched as the director was rendered speechless by Gu Ziming, seeing how she was about to return the role to Qiao Man. She looked at Qiao Man who was sitting on the chair and spoke to him with a mocking expression, "Qiao Man, it was obviously your acting that wasn't good."
"If you act well, how could the director change you?"1
"Now, because of you, the director and the Young Master Gu are arguing again. Do you think you should?" After Cao Yu finished speaking, Xia Yingying also started laughing.
These words, Cao Yu turned her attention to Qiao Man smoothly.
Even if later on, with Qiao Man taking back her role, with her acting skills, she would still be talked about forever.
If Qiao Man knew her place and gave her role to Cao Yu, then Qiao Man could continue to live peacefully with the others in the crew.
"It should be!" While Xia Yingying was waiting for her reply, she heard two words: light and indifferent.
Xia Yingying thought she had heard wrongly. She looked at Qiao Man and Qiao Man raised her head to look at her.
"Young Master Gu invested into this movie for me." In the past, whenever Qiao Man bullied her, she would definitely return it tenfold.
Five years later, Qiao Man would be low-key, she would be able to live her life with her neck tucked in. This was not the first time Xia Yingying and Cao Yu had competed against each other. Previously, she had refuted and fought back, but her attitude wasn't as intense as this time round.
Xia Yingying laughed sarcastically, as if she really had a background.
