Chapter 153: GOSSIPS
"Did you see the new actress?" Asked a girl from the crew.
"Who? The one who is sitting under that tree?" Said another one, pointing at Ning Mei with her gaze.
"Exactly her. Who else? She is very new. And has not even done a single project! I swear to God, I find it hell of a crazy how she even got such an important role in this drama!"
"I know, right. I can see she is going to create too much nuisance here. And we have to work overtime today! "
"Why do you think so?" Asked another one of them.
" Why else? Don’t you know our director? He just want perfection! And have you not seen other newbies acting? If it was an not so important role, it would have been passed. But with her role? There is going to be a lot too many takes. Mark my words ! "
"Oh my God! Yes. Don’t you remember that time, Director Wang was so pissed with a newbies acting that he just got him thrown out of the movie?! That guy did not even have that major screentime! It just just some five minutes or something. Goodness. It was such a hustle!
"We can just hope that she acts well, and not create any extra trouble. Orelse, she would just never want to get on Director Wang’s bad books! "
Yu Lian quietly listened to their gossip. And on some points agreeing with them in her head. Surely, Ning Mei had to give her best. In her confidence, she had given Director Wang her word that Ning Mei is an outstanding actor. But in truth, even she herself has never seen Ning Mei act in front of camera.
And if by any chance, Ning Mei messes it up, even her own image would get ruined in front of Director Wang. And not to mention, it would be really difficult to get any future projects for Ning Mei.
The conversation that Yu Lian heard till now was all good untill it now proceeded further.
" Now that depends isn’t it? Maybe even Director Wang would not get to tell her anything. "
"Why is it so?" Asked the other girl.
"Come on. Don’t be dumb. She is a newbie, and already secured this role ! Also i heard that she did not have to give any audition for it. And that she snatched this role. It was earlier given to Shen Qian. "
"Really?! This role was Shen Qian’s? "
"Yes.. and now see.. it suddenly landed on her hands. Isn’t it suspicious?"
"Suspicious it is, ofcourse! "
"Well, if you ask me honestly, I truly think she used some underhand methods?"
"Under hand methods, like?"
"Alright. Let me be really raw, I seriously think she slept with somebody from high connections in the drama..."
"Oh my God.. really...? " Someone asked with astonishment.
"I mean like seriously, what other ways do these cheap newbies use to get their hands on this main roles. And snatching it from Shen Qian, if not sleeping she must have bribed someone. And do you think, a rich girl would have so much money to bribe the directors and producers and we would not know. "
"Umh... Now that makes sense. " Most of the girls agreed with the girl who have her explained thoughts.
" Oh goodness, makes so much sense. " Someone said. And the someone was noone other than, Yu Lian.
All the girls turned to look at her direction as if not expecting anyone else to overhear the gossip. They all knew her, as Yu Lian did have some name in the industry. And some of her former arist have worked with Director Wang. Though, noone of them were A list actors, yet they were popular and she had grommed them well.
On top of that, she seemed to know Director Wang quite well. So even if these girls didn’t know Yu Lian’s real background, they knew she was not someone to be casually get messed with.
Yu Lian smiled at them a little sinisterly, before walking to them and then crossed her hands.
She looked at the girl who was the one gossiping, and said was Ning Mei sleeping with people to get herself the role.
" You have got yourself such an amazing creativeness, I swear. I mean , I could never. How do you get so much creativity? Wait a minute, why don’t you just become a script writer, darling?" Yu Lian said.
"Excuse me, Miss Yu? I am sorry, I did not get you." The girl said. She was slightly anxious. She felt as if something was about to happen.
" Oh, you don’t get me? I was talking about the spicy gossip you were having just now." Yu Lian said.
The girl narrowed her eyes and said, "Excuse me, Miss Yu. But it doesn’t really concern you. We were not speaking about you. "
Yu Lian smirked and said, "Ofcourse, you weren’t speaking about me. But I have any issue, because you were speaking about my artist. And if someone tries and tarnish the reputation of my artist, I just would not tolerate them."
Hearing her, the girls’ face hardened. They tried to retort by were loss of words. They could not even try to change their words or take back their statement, as Yu Lian had already heard it all.
Yu Lian looked straight at their eyes and said in a serious tone, "Do any of you know her personally? Or do anyone of you even talked to her yet? No, isn’t it? So how can you bring the guts to speak rubbish about her character or about how she got her role? "
The girls just stood there and avoided eye contact with Yu Lian. Yu Lian then said, "And the last thing, being my my artist she does not need to use any underhand methods. I would never allow it. So it would be better, if you stop talking shits about my artist and concentrate more on your job rather than gossiping here. Orelse, Director Wang would be more than happy to kick you out of your jobs. We don’t pay you here, so that you can gossip to your heart’s content, got it?"
