Chapter 934: Quietly watch you show off

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

Very soon, Wu Huan Yue’s part was finished.

When she saw Teacher Chen looking her way, she slowly walked over. “Teacher Chen…”

She was very respectful towards this sixty-something-year-old teacher.

Naturally, she knew what the show was about and for Teacher Chen to have a part in it, it raised the popularity of the show greatly.

“Huan Yue, your acting skills are pretty good,” said Chen Bao Guo with a smile. Since she was such a good young talent, he naturally had to pay more attention to her. As for the other actors, he wasn’t too pleased with them. It was as if they were in a fashion show, just there to show their faces to the camera.

In their words, their fans were not there to watch them act but to see their faces and their charm.

“Thank you, Teacher Chen.” Wu Huan Yue was delighted. After all, she had received a compliment from a senior. How could she not be delighted?

Director Zhu smiled and said, “Among young actors, there aren’t many that get praised by Teacher Chen.”

“Thank you, Director.” Although Wu Huan Yue had done pretty well in the singing world, she wasn’t arrogant. She still studied humbly, was respectful to people, and treated her work seriously. Amongst the film crew, she was very well-liked.

Practically everyone loved this humble actor who was unlike those big names that treated them with a sense of contempt.

Chen Bao Guo said, “Teacher Huang Xiu Fang has been looking for a student recently. I’ll find the time to contact her. You can actually study under her. Settle down for a bit. It’ll be of great help to you in the future.”

When Wu Huan Yue heard that name, she was instantly stunned.

Huang Xiu Fang was a top-grade actor in the country and was considered a true veteran actor. She had basically devoted her life to film. But now, she had already retired and she would occasionally make guest appearances in some drama shows. Although she wasn’t very popular with the current generation, her standing in the entertainment circle was very high.

“Can I really?” asked Wu Huan Yue.

Chen Bao Guo smiled. “It should be fine. She loves young people who are serious.”

“Thank you, Teacher Chen,” Wu Huan Yue thanked him once again.

Director Zhu was astonished. He hadn’t thought that Teacher Chen would recommend her like that. If he didn’t know that Teacher Chen had a perfect family, with kids and grandchildren, and that he had never broken any rules before, he would’ve thought that Chen Bao Guo had taken a liking for Wu Huan Yue.

Now that he saw it, this was the older generation leading a young talent. This kind of opportunity was hard to come by.

Then, he took a look at the camera.

He frowned. That female first lead is making an appearance again. Can’t she put a little more effort into it?

But forget it. As long as it’s not too bad, it’s fine. It’s better not to demand too much.

“Ok, we’re done.” The director clapped. They were finally done with the filming. It had really been tiring.

The female first lead stopped what she was doing and saw Wu Huan Yue chatting with the director and Chen Bao Guo happily. Then, she wasn’t very pleased.

During the filming, this Wu Huan Yue had stolen her limelight. Everyone knew that she had released songs before and whenever she was free, she would sing a song for everyone and win everyone’s praises.

Meanwhile, besides her face, the female first lead had nothing much to show for. She only knew how to do a seductive dance.

But of course, if she showed her dance to these people, it would be humiliating.

The manager rushed to Xie Qing’s side and brought her to change her clothes.

“This Wu Huan Yue is an evil woman pretending to be pure.” The manager had a sharp eye. How could she not know what was going on? So, she whispered this to Xie Qing.

“Hmph,” Xie Qing grunted in disdain.

They were both young people but the most she had heard at the filming center was that her acting was great and that she was really gifted, etc. These compliments put her in a really bad mood.

Outside.

A luxurious sedan stopped in its tracks.

When Director Zhu saw the car, he couldn’t help but sigh. Their biggest investor was here.

A middle-aged man got off the car and there was also another middle-aged man with him.

“Chief Yang…” Director Zhu greeted him courteously.

“Director Zhu, I heard that this TV show has been finalized, so I came to take a look. Where’s Qing Qing?” asked Chief Yang.

“She’s changing right now and she should be out soon,” said Director Zhu.

Everyone here knew that that Xie Qing had been put into the show by this Chief Yang. Moreover, when he had invested in the show, he had immediately reserved the spot for the first female lead.

Although the two of them didn’t display signs of closeness in public, everyone had an idea of their relationship. He was taking care of her. She served him and he took care of him in return.

This kind of situation was quite common.

“Director Zhu, let me introduce you. This is Hua Tian Film Corporation’s Deputy Chief, Wang Xun. You recognize him, don’t you?” Chief Yang introduced.

“Yes, of course. I just haven’t met him in person before. Welcome, Chief Wang.” Director Zhu hurriedly went forward and shook his hand.

Wang Xun nodded. Then, his gaze swept his surroundings and stopped at Wu Huan Yue.

With his professional eyes, he could tell that this female performer was all natural. She hadn’t gone through any cosmetic surgery. This was quite rare.

“Teacher Chen, we’ve troubled you.” Chief Yang looked at Chen Bao Guo with a beaming smile. He was courteous to this veteran actor as he should have been. But Chen Bao Guo was already old and times had changed. He was past his time.

Chen Bao Guo chuckled and greeted him as well. He didn’t quite like this kind of people but he still had to say the proper formalities.

“I’m going to go take a look at Xie Qing. She was recommended by me. I can’t let her cause you trouble. I’ll come back later to chat with everyone,” said Chief Yang. Then, he headed off in front.

Wang Xun followed him as well as he commented softly, “That actor at the side just now was pretty good.”

“You’re talking about Wu Huan Yue. She’s pretty good indeed. She started off as a singer and I heard she has someone backing her. What is it? Have you taken a liking for her?” Chief Yang laughed.

Wang Xun chuckled. “I feel that she’s pretty good.”

“Get to know her better then. People who do acting have to get used to this, isn’t that right? Even if she has someone backing her, she still needs the right connections. You’re the Deputy Chief of Hua Tian Film Corporation, why wouldn’t you be able to take on a newbie in the film industry?” Chief Yang teased.

“You really do make some sense.” Wang Xun smiled but didn’t say much else.

When Xie Qing heard that Chief Yang was here, she was all smiles. Then, she packed up and came out. When she came out, she bumped into him at the entrance.

“Chief Yang, you’re here,” said Xie Qing with a tender voice. Her voice was so delicate that Chief Yang couldn’t quite resist it.

“How was it? The filming is over. You’re in a pretty good mood, aren’t you?” said Chief Yang with a smile.

“I’m alright,” replied Xie Qing.

Wang Xun stood at the side. Then, Chief Yang introduced him, “Let me introduce you to a big shot. Chief Wang, Wang Xun. He’s a major figure in your film industry. Remember him in the future.”

Xie Qing saw him and greeted, “Nice to meet you, Chief Wang.”

“Mmm.” Wang Xun nodded. He had seen many celebrities before but he knew about this Xie Qing. She had been quite popular a while ago.

Chief Yang said, “Since you’re done with the filming, let’s go outside to chat.”

Outside.

As Chief Yang and Wang Xun arrived, the atmosphere changed slightly.

Everyone’s gazes were basically fixated on the three of them. Meanwhile, Xie Qing was all smiles. She quite enjoyed this kind of attention.

She even shot a glance at Wu Huan Yue. Her meaning was clear. It was as if she was saying, ‘See this? In here, I’m the main character.’

Chen Bao Guo didn’t say a single word as he just stood there watching them show off.

With the big shots around, Xie Qing naturally received various compliments.
