After Gu Weiwei went back to the hotel to eat dinner, she and the main cast of the film, were asked to attend a meeting in the small conference room of the hotel.
The director’s team and the scriptwriter handed out a new version of the script and after Gu Weiwei went through a few pages, she realized that Chu Chen, the supporting actor, had tremendously fewer scenes compared to before. Instead, her and the lead actor’s scenes together were increased.
Seeing the script, Chu Chen interrogated the director without hesitation. “Director Mo, what happened to my scenes?”
“The script is adjusted according to the filming process.” Mo Jiao said with a chuckle.
Since the lead actress and the lead actor were doing well together and the supporting actor was not as satisfying as they had expected, in order to reach a certain effect, he and the scriptwriter had talked about changing the script.
What was more, he had been disappointed about his previous pestering of the lead actress.
“But dozens of my scenes have been cut, that is not how the contract was signed.”
Unconvinced, Chu Chen protested vividly – now he was just like a minor role.
“Because what you have been doing these past few days, is quite disappointing in the movie aspect.” Mo Jiao said straightforwardly.
He was always in need of professionals, and if an actor could do well, he would focus on him or her rather than someone without any skills.
Chu Chen glared at Gu Weiwei who was reading the script. All he had done was go and visit her so they could check over the script together, yet she hadn’t even allowed him to enter the room!
So did they really need to bring him down in this way?
But the director’s team had already decided to use the new script and his opportunity that he had tried so hard to get hold of, as a cast member, was still more important.
Although he was unconvinced, he could not possibly quit the cast.
“That’s all for today, now, everyone go back to your rooms and prepare for tomorrow’s work.” Mo Jiao said, got up and left his seat.
Gu Weiwei left the conference room with the new script and checked her phone as she entered the elevator. Then she returned Fu Hanzheng’s call.
“I was in a meeting just now, so I could not answer your call.”
“Finished dinner?”
Fu Hanzheng asked as he engaged himself in his work.
“I’ve eaten dinner, are you still busy with work?” Gu Weiwei asked.
“Yes.” Fu Hanzheng chuckled and asked, “How much longer before you come home?”
“I have one more task to handle, so I need to ask for leave for one day.” Gu Weiwei confessed honestly.
Fu Hanzheng asked, “Do you have time to meet up?”
“I am going home early in the morning and I return in the afternoon, so maybe not, also…”
Gu Weiwei sighed and wondered whether she should continue.
“Also what?” Fu Hanzheng asked.
“Also, my agent suspects that I am in a relationship and he has been keeping an eye on me for the past few days.” Gu Weiwei said helplessly.
These days, Jolin kept asking her about the Baby Zheng in her contact list and it was very difficult for her to dislodge Jolin, so that she could meet Fu Hanzheng in the capital.
Fu Hanzheng thought for a moment and said.
“I will arrange it.”
It was unreasonable that they could not even meet each other when she was in the capital.
“Alright, but don’t get noticed by Jolin.” Gu Weiwei warned him with a chuckle.
Hearing her opening and closing the door, Fu Hanzheng said, “I had some things delivered to your room, have you seen them?”
Gu Weiwei entered the room and was about to look for whatever he had given to her when she heard something stirring in the bathroom.
Then she followed the sound and gasped at the sight of the bathroom.
“What is it?” Fu Hanzheng could tell that something was wrong.
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips and calmed herself down.
“That is indeed… a nice present.”
“Enjoy it well. Good night!”
