Director Zhang: “Teacher Guo, I’m really sorry. I don’t have the final say in this matter. Now… someone else is acting in this role. I’m really sorry for wasting your time.”
Guo Sai Sai: “What do you mean someone else is acting? Is another teacher replacing me because I’m not acting well enough?”
Guo Saisai: “But when I was filming, some of the scenes were done in one take, and some of the scenes were not done well. I still tried many different ways to perform it over and over again. There were also a few that you kept and said that you would cut them when the time came. Every time I asked you after filming a scene, you always said that my acting was not bad. So, it can’t be because my acting was not good, right?”
Director Zhang: “Teacher Guo, your acting is really not bad. Among the young actors, your acting skills are definitely not bad. If we have a good script in the future, whether it’s me or any directors I know, I will definitely recommend you.”
Director Zhang: “Although this is the first time we are working together, I have seen your dedication over the past few days. No matter how many times you have to film, you will definitely not be impatient. Even if your acting was not a problem, if we want another scene just in case, you will definitely have no problems.”
Director Zhang: “Moreover, in order to accommodate the time of the other teachers, you are also very easy-going. These few days, I know that you went to the dressing room early to prepare in order to give the other teachers more time to prepare. Even if there were still a few hours before you start filming, you would rather go to greater trouble yourself and wear your makeup to catch up on sleep. You would also try your best to leave time for the other teachers so that they can rest better.”
Director Zhang: “It’s very rare for an actor to be as cooperative as you are now. So, I’m very willing to continue using you in the next film and recommend you to other director friends.”
Director Zhang: “It’s just that for this film, I really have no choice. This isn’t something that I can decide, so I can only follow instructions.”
Guo Saisai: “So, it’s not because my acting isn’t good, but because someone brought funds into the crew and forcefully snatched my role?”
Director Zhang: “Teacher Guo, there are some things that I can’t say, so don’t make things difficult for me.”
Zhang Saisai said: “I understand.”
Stop Asking I Am A Side Account: “A friend of mine works in the production team and recorded it. But I can’t reveal his name. I have to protect my friend, and I can’t let him lose his job. Everyone can just find out about this matter. Please don’t try to find out about me and my friend. I came out purely because I couldn’t stand Yuan Keqing. Moreover, I personally saw Yuan Keqing enter the production team before Guo Saisai had even left. She even met Guo Saisai face to face. The scene was very awkward and arrogant.”
“No matter who recorded this recording, it just proved that Guo Saisai was not removed from the production team because of her poor acting skills.”
“Although the director didn’t say it explicitly, since he said that he didn’t have the final say in this matter, he could only listen to instructions, this implied that Yuan Keqing had indeed brought funds into the team and snatched Guo Saisai’s role. Everyone in society can understand this, right?”
“So “I’m A Side Account” is actually a staff member of the crew who knows so much and has a better chance of recording?”
“There are indeed many staff members of the production team. They often anonymously expose many things on the forums.”
“Guo Saisai wouldn’t be so stupid as to really reveal the information herself. People’s first reaction would usually feel that it was her side account if such incidents happened. But this was too obvious. If she really did it and was found out by others, she wouldn’t be able to make a stand in the industry in the future.”
“Yes, I think “I’m A Side Account” is an account to confuse people. Exposing the truth and pushing the blame onto Guo Saisai at the same time.”
“This was obviously to make people suspect Guo Saisai and investigate if it was really her. If it really was her, it will be very easy for people to find out. Although Guo Saisai isn’t popular, and can only act as the second female lead. But in this day and age, anyone who can make a name for themselves in the entertainment industry and let people know their name isn’t stupid. How could they do such a stupid thing?”
“Guo Saisai was also pushed to the limit. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have come out to speak now.”
Guo Saisai and Chen Jiangling looked at the comments on Weibo and changed the direction of the comments again.
“Could these be the masterpiece of the internet trolls arranged by Tan Mo?” Guo Saisai kept scrolling the comments and asked.
“I think so, but the effect is really good.”
“Yuan Keqing is so good at playing tricks. Just watch. There will be more to come.” A netizen said with a premonition.
Yuan Keqing and Xu Mingjing watched as the netizen actually sided with Guo Saisai.
“Mom, what do we do now?” Yuan Keqing asked Xu Mingjing hurriedly.
However, Xu Mingjing had no other choice, “Now that the recording is out, even if the director didn’t explicitly say that you brought the funds into the group to steal Guo Saisai’s role, the netizens will still guess that way.”
Xu Mingjing sighed, “Now, I can’t think of any good ideas either.”
“Let’s look for a public relations company.” Xu Mingjing said, “At this point, we can only look for professionals. We can’t think of any ideas on our own.”
“Now that things have come to this, you definitely have to speak up. It’s impossible for you to remain silent anymore. However, we still have to discuss with the professionals what and how we should say things to achieve our wanted effect and the kind of impression we leave the netizens. The judgment of the professionals is always more accurate than us guessing the thoughts of the netizens based on our feelings.”
“I’ll contact the public relations company right away!” Meng Fanzhen said.
The sooner the matter was resolved, the better.
The longer they dragged it out, the more disadvantageous it would be for Yuan Keqing.
However, it was already too late.
Meng Fanzhen contacted the public relations company.
Even if they worked overtime overnight, Yuan Keqing could not post at this time.
There would not be many people who would see posts in the middle of the night.
Moreover, people would say that she was guilty.
Yuan Keqing did not sleep well that night.
She knew that there would not be any good comments on the internet, but she still could not help but look at it.
Even the viewership of “Moon Shines Over the River” dropped drastically because of this incident.
Many netizens expressed that they did not want to see Yuan Keqing.
The moment they saw her, they would think of her snatching other people’s roles.
In fact, most of these netizens were not fans of Guo Saisai.
No matter who Yuan Keqing was snatching from, whether it was Guo Saisai or Li Saisai.
Yuan Keqing’s behavior was enough for them to detest.
However, Yuan Keqing had quite a lot of scenes.
Only four episodes had been broadcasted.
As the second female lead, her scenes were already comparable to that of the female lead.
She took up so much time in one episode and it really caused the netizens to be disgusted.
“This drama has Yuan Keqing, I’m not watching it anymore.”
“Can the Guo Pai release a feature to ‘not watch her’? If I skip all the parts that have Yuan Keqing, then I can still continue watching it.”
“But what did the actors who have scenes with Yuan Keqing do wrong? If we don’t watch Yuan Keqing, we won’t be able to watch the scenes of other people who have scenes with her.”
