Chapter 343: Chapter 342: The Mysterious Girl Translator: Shino
“She got one online drama and one insignificant movie? What a joke.”
“The lousy online drama that only has a low budget is full of new actors. Does Gu Manxi know that her acting skills are not good and dare not accept better scripts?”
“No pictures, no truth. Goddess Yuzhi announced that she’ll be the female lead of “Tales of Yu Lu’. That’s a big production team. We all know who got the last laugh here..”
“Goddess Yuzhi has a bright future ahead of her. Unlike somebody else.”
“The Wind Blows? More like the wind flops.”
“I’m looking forward to Goddess Yuzhi’s new movie, ‘South Wind Intoxication’. I hope it gets popular. Crush that person with connections!”
Many people thought that after Lu Shanhe’s movie, the company’s next step would definitely be making Gu Manxi the main female lead of a big production TV series or movie.
However, the reality was that Gu Manxi, who was the female lead of Director Lu’s movie, had accepted a small-budget online drama, “The Wind Blows”, and a seemingly ordinary movie, “Drunken Days”.
Many netizens secretly ridiculed Gu Manxi — she had a face but no brain.
Looking at Cao Yuezhi, who was the female lead of movies, TV series with large-scale productions, huge investments and veteran actors. Before the shooting started, her series already had the potential to become hugely popular. A female star like Gu Manxi, who was favored by the heavens, would only end up ruining her future if she didn’t grasp her opportunities.
Song Chen found out that Gu Chu was going to send mutton soup to Manxi.
Song Chen happened to be free, so he went to pick up his daughter without saying a word. Under Zhao Yan’s cold gaze, Song Chen carried his daughter into the car and left. The father and daughter happily went to the set to meet Gu Manxi.
Gu Manxi had already finished her audition and had entered the suburbs to shoot for “The Wind Blows”. It was snowing heavily in the suburbs of the capital. The sky was covered in snow and the air was slightly cold.
Song Chen parked the car at the entrance of the set. Gu Chu’s eyes lit up when she saw a shop selling handmade rainbow candies outside the set. Gu Chu’s eyes lit up and her claws lightly tugged at the corner of Song Chen’s shirt.
Dad, candies, understood?
He immediately understood the assignment.
It was cold outside in winter, so Song Chen was worried that Gu Chu would get sick from the cold. He asked Gu Chu to wait in the car for him. Song Chen put on his sunglasses and got off the car with a cold and domineering aura. He went to buy candies for his daughter…
Gu Chu waited at the entrance of the production team, waiting until she was bored. Suddenly, she heard a dispute outside the car window —
“Filming is in progress! Outsiders are not allowed to enter!” The security guard at the entrance shouted.
The girl’s sharp curses could be heard. “I want to see Gu Manxi! I want to talk to her!”
Upon hearing Mommy’s name, Gu Chu’s ears pricked up.
It was freezing outside, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow. It was bone-chilling. A young girl in a black down jacket was arguing with the security guard. She wore thick black-rimmed glasses, and her nose bridge and eyes were red. Perhaps because she was emotional, the girl’s voice was choked with sobs.
“Gu Manxi’s new movie script was written by me! Someone copied my script and sold it to someone else. I didn’t get a single cent. I can’t even afford my rent! I’m here to seek justice from Gu Manxi!” The girl said bitterly, big tears falling off her cheeks.
The security guard looked impatient. “Miss, can you be more rational?! Gu Manxi is just an actress. What can she do about the script?”
“Do you think I didn’t go to Song and Wang Entertainment? They ignored me and even threatened me.” The girl was obviously on the verge of breaking down, she kept wiping away her tears. “I can only go to the lead actor… The Internet said that Gu Manxi has a strong backer.. I want to talk to her and take back what belongs to me!”
