You Are Brighter Than Stars - C251
But, Zhang Mancha is my enemy, furthermore she was insulting my friend just now, my family members are already dead because of Zhang Mancha, how can I allow Zhang Mancha to hurt my friend?
I can’t.
Therefore, I had to stand out and talk to Zhang Mancha like that.
“Lin Xiang, you!”
“I know what you want to say. I just joined the group, after all, I don’t have any connections, but Lin Jia, Manager Lin, I can endure anything else, but towards Zhang Mancha alone, I will definitely not tolerate anything. What she did back then, even if I chopped her into a thousand pieces, it would not be enough to quell my anger.”
“I will film well in the future. As long as Zhang Mancha doesn’t come looking for me, I will definitely not take the initiative to target her. But if she doesn’t have eyes, then you can’t blame me.”
I interrupted Lin Jia, not because I was petty, if I did not have principles regarding my own kin, then I am not fit to be a human. This kind of thing, is normal, hmm, yes, it’s normal.
I kept hinting to myself.
Lin Jia was staring at me right now, and I could feel it.
Could it be that Lin Jia was prepared to use psychological tactics to make me compromise? How can I compromise?
I can’t compromise on something like this.
Even if Lin Jia didn’t want to be my manager in the end, I would still treat him the same way I am now.
“Lin Xiang, I don’t think you did anything wrong just now. You did well, my manager, but how can an actor without acting skills compare to you? Sometimes, you have to be tough, no matter who the person is, you have to maintain your confidence. I believe that in the future, you will be as outstanding as I expected.”
I looked up at Lin Jia in astonishment. Not only did I not expect Lin Jia to not blame me, he had even encouraged me to do so.
Was this really something a qualified broker should do?
After counting the artistes that Lin Jia had brought before in detail, every single one of them seemed to have walked a different path, and every single one of them seemed to be very arrogant. Now, I seemed to have found the real reason.
So it turns out that the main reason is because of my current genius manager, and everything is actually because of him.
It was also sad that every time when Lin Jia’s artistes were targeted, but every time after the film was released, they would be praised well, and because of their various strange personalities, the fans of the actors were all extremely tempted. No matter what happened to their idols, they would not be surprised.
Some even seemed to make trouble with their idols.
Once again, I was glad that my precious son had found me such a astute manager. Otherwise, my path of acting would never have been smooth sailing.
Just as I thought that, Lin Jia suddenly slapped my shoulder.
“Lin Xiang, no matter what happens in the future, you have to do it according to your heart. In the end, if something happens, I will help you take care of it, but everything is fine, but you have to take care of everything, or else the punishment will be very strict and abnormal. At that time, don’t say that I didn’t tell you about it.”
When it came to severity and perverted people, Lin Jia’s gaze changed. It was a kind of crafty gaze, like that of an old cunning fox, but somehow it made people feel that he was in danger.
“I will definitely be good at filming. Even if I were to meet with difficulties, I will still serve the customer.” As I said that, I clenched my fists by my side. I don’t know if I was just giving myself a guarantee or giving Lin Jia a guarantee.
When I left, I swore to the heavens that I would stand at the peak of the entertainment circle. At that time, I would personally go to my parents’ grave and tell them that I had really succeeded.
When I was admitted to college, my parents didn’t really approve of me studying acting, but in the end, I said I would be the best actor, and my parents agreed.
This is what I promised my parents, and I have to do it, no matter how hard it is.
“En, not bad. Go.”
On the first day, I didn’t have much of a role in the movie, and there weren’t many scenes on the crew. It was just a short period of time after filming that the director came over from the main characters’ side to look at the scene in front of me.
I looked towards Zhang Mancha, who was not far away, and saw her ashen face, probably because she did not expect me to look at her so suddenly, so Zhang Mancha did not hide his expression, it was a pair of eyes filled with hatred and jealousy, it was really cold.
I looked away and continued my own shooting. I had thought about every movement many times, so I could guarantee that there would be absolutely no problem.
“Another one passed. Girl, you’re not bad.” The director saw me coming and patted me on the shoulder. He looked in a good mood.
“The director is exaggerating, but the truth is that it’s just average. Almost any actor with some ability on the stage can do one. It’s easy for someone like the director to be completely familiar with the script.”
The director’s smile deepened, and he looked at me, stroking the beard under his chin.
Back then, when I invited you for this movie, I was actually quite worried about you. After all, there were many actors who were stronger than you, but that person said that you had to do it. That’s why I chose you.
The director laughed, clearly very satisfied with his initial decision.
If the filming went well, he would definitely think of a way to work with Lin Xiang again. He could tell that this actor in front of him might become a big shot that even if he was rich, he still wouldn’t be able to invite him.
He should pave the way for his future career.
“Thank you for the director’s concern for me, but I feel that most of the actors in this movie are pearls. As for those who aren’t pearls, naturally they are pearls. After all, fish eyes are pearls.”
As I said that, I looked towards Zhang Mancha’s direction meaningfully.
Zhang Mancha, you won’t be able to stand up happily anymore. This time, after coming back, I have already made up my mind, you will definitely be punished, and with this thought, the two of you, don’t even think about running away. I will slowly return to you all what you have done.
Not only that, I will also make you all regret provoking me. You shouldn’t have provoked me back then.
Looking at Zhang Mancha for a long time, Zhang Mancha who was about to say something, suddenly looked somewhat foolish as she stood on the stage, looking flustered and exasperated.
As for me, I finally smiled. Zhang Mancha, this is just the beginning, we still have to slowly and properly play with each other.
The game had only just begun. It was meaningless to end it early.
After chatting with the director for a while longer, Lin Jia finally called for me. I then turned around and left.
As the filming progress was a bit faster these two days and the filming ended early, Lin Jia had helped me make the arrangements. In the afternoon, I would go and do the advertising for the hotel.
I want to be able to finish the hotel advertisement when the location is over.
Sometimes, advertising sounds like it’s easy to do, but when it’s actually done, you’ll know it’s not that easy to shoot. There are too many things you can’t change.
“It’s raining.” I was in the middle of shooting, but it was just two minutes before it started to rain, without any warning.
“Hurry up and enter the house. Everyone, hurry up and pack up all the equipment. We’ll be shooting later. It’s more important for us to avoid the rain.”
Amidst the chaos, there was a voice that made everyone quiet down. It was not as chaotic as before. Everyone slowly made their way towards the place where they could take shelter from the rain.
“Lin Xiang, there might not be seats over there. Let’s go to the shop over there.” Lin Jia said to me.
I nodded my head subconsciously. The place where I could hide from the rain wasn’t that big and now, all of it was occupied by strangers. Just the staff there were already sufficient, let alone an actor like me who wasn’t famous at all.
