Director Yang finally came out of the room with the investors 30 minutes later. After he smiled and sent them off, he suddenly looked sad and couldn’t resist sighing.
An employee had been waiting outside for some time. “Are we still going to post the announcement on social media?”
Director Yang shook his head. “Sigh. Just forget about it.” The moment Director Yang finished his sentence, he turned to leave sadly.
The investors wouldn’t have come for no reason. A lot of possibilities ran through his head when he saw them, but he did not realize they were here because of Mu Sheng.
The investors felt Mu Sheng wasn’t good enough and wanted to get her changed, so the director said no to getting the announcement posted.
After all, they had signed a contract with Mu Sheng. It was quite a different situation for Mu Sheng to get fired or leave on her own accord.
The investors wanted to drive Mu Sheng away using public opinion. It would help create publicity for the drama and force her to drop the show.
Director Yang shook his head as he walked. They were certainly good at coming up with schemes like that. Everyone would get what they wanted and leave the blame on Mu Sheng.
Initially, Director Yang wasn’t a fan of Mu Sheng. After filming with her for a few days, he realized she was a natural at acting. Also, she was intelligent and highly disciplined. She was nothing like the news said about her.
Sadly, he was just a director and there was nothing he could do to stop this.
To put it bluntly, he was just an employee and had no say in such decisions. Even if he wanted to help Mu Sheng very badly, he was powerless.
Director Yang took out his phone and called Mu Sheng. Her phone got through before long.
“Mu Sheng…” Director Yang couldn’t help sighing before he finished his sentence. “I…”
Mu Sheng sounded calm. “I saw everything. Director Yang, I understand the predicament you are in.”
“There is no point talking about this. I have a few friends in the industry. I know they need actresses, so I will recommend you to them.” Director Yang felt awful about being forced to send his best actress away.
“Okay. Thanks.”
“It’s fine… It is the least I could do…”
After Mu Sheng hung up the phone, the social media page appeared on her screen. Mu Sheng swiped through the contents of social media and saw that the number of comments demanding for her to leave the drama had already reached 150,000.
“Sheng, Tian and I will come up with something and clear your name. Don’t let this get to you. These people didn’t know better and were just talking randomly.” Tang Tiantian was worried Mu Sheng might feel sad when she saw the posts, so she quickly consoled her.
“I’m fine.” Mu Sheng nodded slightly. “Tell the driver to send you back first.”
The comments online were not enough to affect her.
Tang Tiantian did not go home. Instead, she took the car and headed to the talent agency. Jiang Tian clearly saw the posts on social media. He was sitting with a cigarette in his mouth as he looked at the computer solemnly.
“Tian?”
“Uh huh.” Jiang Tian sat with his legs on the table with a cigarette in one hand as he typed with the other. “Didn’t you film a video of Mu Sheng’s acting yesterday because it was very good? Send the clip to me.”
“Okay.” Tang Tiantian looked for the video just like Jiang Tian asked.
“Find a PR company to get the word out on the internet. Once you have reached out to them, wait for my orders,” said Jiang Tian. However, Jiang Tiantian stood stunned, so he frowned. “What are you standing around here for? Get cracking.”
Tang Tiantian watched in a daze. “Tian, this is the first time I see you get so serious for as long as I have known you.”
Jiang Tian certainly looked hot when he got serious!
“Do it.” Jiang Tian rolled his eyes. “Do you still want your bonus?”
“Definitely! I’m on it” Tang Tiantian picked up her phone and walked to the side to contact a PR company.
Tang Tiantian came back miserably ten minutes later.
“Tian, the PR companies refused to help us with the problem. The moment they heard it was us, they claimed to be busy and hung up on me.”
Jiang Tian frowned. “Talent Scout Entertainment must be behind this.”
