Chapter 414: Doubt
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
While the netizens praised Han Chi for directing the short film, they also realized that Lu Zhen and Yang Na did not appear in the first three short films.
In other words, Lu Zhen and Yang Na had both chosen Director Wei Ji t s script.
This puzzled the audience in the live-stream.
“What are Lu Zhen and Yang Na thinking? Why did they choose Wei Ji t s script so coincidentally? To be honest, I’ve never seen Wei Ji’s movie. I think he’s a director whose achievements have been exaggerated. He hasn’t produced any good works in recent years. Why did two S-rank actors choose him? Could it be that the production team deliberately arranged it? Could there be an inside story?”
“From the short films produced by the other three directors, I think this show is still very conscientious. There shouldn’t be any insider information. Perhaps one of them chose Director Wei Ji, and the other chose Director Wei Ji because of some emotional dependence?”
“What? Could it be that the two of them are really in a relationship? Isn’t this hype?’
The emcee also saw the netizens’ doubts about Wei Ji and felt a little helpless. How unpopular was Wei Ji that netizens felt that two S-rank actors should not choose him?
The interaction between Director Han Chi’s production team was still ongoing.
The emcee could only ignore the comments discussing Wei Ji, Lu Zhen, and Yang Na and choose the comments related to the movie “Reverse Rotation” to ask questions.
Due to the limited interaction time, most of the questions were directed at the director and the male and female leads. Those supporting actors basically had no chance to speak. The emcee saw Lu Rou standing beside the main leads, but the microphone had never been handed to her. She felt a little emotional.
Ever since Bian Lang started to promote Lu Rou, Lu Rou, who had almost been forgotten in the entertainment industry, had returned to the public eye. In the emcee’s opinion, this was a perfect opportunity for Lu Rou to turn the tables.
As long as she seized the opportunity and produced one or two good works, she would still have a chance to return to the position of an A-list actress.
However, to the emcee’s disappointment, Lu Rou’s acting skills did not seem to have improved at all. Even though the emcee had not seen the new movie starring Lu Rou, he felt that it would not be very good.
After all, in this variety show, Lu Rou’s performance was not recognized by any of the four directors. This was enough to show that her business ability was not good.
More importantly, the emcee had also heard some gossip—
The S-rank contestant, Lu Zhen, had an allergic reaction to her skin during the filming process. After the filming ended, she was sent to the hospital. It was said that this matter was man-made and was related to a female celebrity with the word E.
After the police investigation, the female celebrity named A frankly said that she was also instructed by someone, and the person behind it was another female celebrity who had a grudge against Lu Zhen and had a close relationship with her.
The insider who spread the news did not say the person’s name very clearly, but the emcee could roughly guess the entire situation.
When he found out about this, he was very shocked. How could Lu Rou be so bold? She actually dared to harm the most popular contestant in such a popular variety show in the country?
If this matter was exposed, wouldn’t Lu Rou leave the entertainment industry?
The emcee also heard that the injuries on Lu Zhen’s face were relatively serious, but the production team did not say that Lu Zhen would not come to the live-stream event location today. He did not know how he would explain the injuries on her face to the audience.
If they couldn’t explain it clearly, with the netizens’ curiosity and imagination, they might mistake it for the production team not protecting Lu Zhen well. At that time, there would definitely be a chaotic public opinion battle.
The emcee had been in the industry for so many years and had a very sharp judgment of the direction of the entertainment industry. For a moment, he felt a little nervous and uneasy.
After the interaction between Han Chi’s production team ended, the short film directed by Wei Ji, “Robot”, finally began to play.
In the live-stream, at first, there were still audience members commenting on the opening scene. Later on, most of them tacitly maintained silence and began to focus on watching the short video.
At this moment, Panda Ninja, who was sitting in front of the screen, had also made coffee and was looking at the screen seriously.
Panda Ninja was not a person who liked to stay up late. Usually, he would go to bed at ten at the latest, but today, he made an exception and planned to stay up late..
