The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy

After a week of script reading, it has come to a temporary end, and the next step is to officially enter the intense shooting stage.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Shen Li had just finished washing up and came out of the bathroom. He was thinking of calling Gu Jingcheng to share the good news he received today. Before he picked up the phone, someone called him.

The director's notes flashed on the phone screen. Shen Li was confused and did not answer it immediately.

The director is a middle-aged man. I have discovered through my interactions with him over the past few days that he is a nice person with a lot of ideas and talent.

But people are multifaceted after all. She didn't know what kind of person the director was like. In her mind, Cao Ruian and Xie Xiaoqin kept telling her to protect herself and be careful about everything.

The cell phone rang for a while, Shen Li picked up the call and turned on the recording out of habit.

"Hey, Director, what can I do for you at this late hour?"

The person on the other end of the phone said with some hesitation and seriousness, "Um~ I'm sorry to bother you so late, but, it's really important. If it's convenient for you, please come to the conference room now."

"Oh~Okay, I'll come over now."

The so-called conference room is actually a temporary set up in a rented hotel room. It is usually used for crew leaders to hold meetings, and the previous script reading took place there.

The furnishings in the room were also very simple. There were just a few tables and chairs placed in the room, and occasionally some sundries and equipment would be temporarily piled up. Several people in the logistics department had keys, so it was considered a public place.

Hearing that the meeting place was there, Shen Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was too worried, but it always helps to be cautious.

She changed out of her pajamas, picked up her cell phone and hurried over. Judging from the director's tone, he seemed to be quite anxious.

"Knock Knock Knock!"

I knocked gently on the door, and then the door opened. It was the director who opened it.

Shen Li glanced through his side and saw that besides him, there were also producers and other staff in the room.

Xie Xiaoqin is here too. Shouldn’t she be in Kyoto at this time?

Cao Ruian called her away yesterday and didn't tell her when she would be back.

Xie Xiaoqin's face didn't look very good, and the atmosphere in the room was a little weird.

With a lot of doubts in his mind, Shen Li walked into the room and sat down next to Xie Xiaoqin.

As soon as I sat down, I heard Xie Xiaoqin say to the person opposite me: "Director, producer, the filming will start tomorrow, and we have signed the contract. Isn't it inappropriate to do this?"

The person opposite him was smiling and saying polite things...

After the conversation, which lasted almost half an hour, a lot of people came to the rescue in the middle of the night. There was no other reason, just to inform Shen Li that she was going to be replaced.

In the afternoon, Shen Licai shared with Xie Xiaoqin the good news that the crew had secured a large investment, and even boasted that he was blessed by a lucky star. However, within a day, he was slapped in the face so quickly.

It is understandable that now that the crew has money, they will naturally reconsider their previous arrangements.

Moreover, they hinted in their words that it was the capital side that stuffed people in.

The other party's conditions were probably not bad, otherwise a director who pursued quality would not have made things so difficult. He actually thought Shen Li was quite suitable.

But after all, with real money, the production of scripts can achieve a qualitative leap.

When the two came out of the conference room, there were already several messages from Gu Jingcheng on her phone.

【I’m off duty.】

【are you still busy? 】

[Your official shoot will start tomorrow. I have to go on a business trip tomorrow, so I may not be able to reply to your message in time.]

【Go to bed early, I miss you. 】

···

She lowered her head, typing quickly on the keyboard, and replied to Gu Jingcheng.

[Just finished, it’s too late so I won’t video chat anymore. 】

【I miss you as well】

She and Xie Xiaoqin returned to their room together, speaking nothing along the way.

Xie Xiaoqin was so angry that she wanted to die, but she could only sigh deeply and helplessly. She unscrewed the water on the table and drank half of the bottle.

Shen Li could also guess that before she went there, she must have argued with the group of people in the room for most of the day and her mouth was dry from talking.

She was angry in her heart, but she still carefully observed Shen Li's emotions and tried her best to act like this was not a big deal in front of her.

"Ali, please don't mind it. We don't need to cooperate with a team like them that goes back on their word. There are better ones waiting for us. Lao Cao called me back in a hurry to discuss a big cooperation..."

She had an exaggerated expression and looked nonchalant, but the decadence in her eyes betrayed her.

Shen Li found the box and packed his things while saying, "Okay, let's pack quickly. We have to catch the bus tomorrow morning. I'm so sleepy."

Xie Xiaoqin sighed, pursed her lips, collapsed on the bed, buried her face in the pillow and began to wail uncontrollably.

"Ah, wuwu~ It's all my fault~~"

This was the first Waterloo in her career. She had never taken work matters seriously before. She just let it go even if she was scolded.

But this time, she was obsessed with becoming a gold medal agent and making Shen Li a top star, but now, she can't even keep such a role.

She was devastated.

Shen Li patted her back gently to comfort her: "Why blame you? Blame you for not having money from the investors? Otherwise, why don't you get up now and throw your card at the director and producer's faces?"

Xie Xiaoqin sat up straight, wiped her tears and looked at Shen Li with resentment.

"You have a very poisonous tongue."

Shen Li was amused by her. He took out Xie Xiaoqin's clothes from the closet and threw them on the bed: "Hurry up and pack them up. Look, these are all yours."

The two of them cried and laughed, quickly packed all their things into the box, and lay down on the bed.

Lying side by side, heads touching, they calmly discussed the role replacement.

Shen Li: "To be honest, I've only heard about this kind of thing before, but it's really sad when it happens to me."

Xie Xiaoqin: "Hey! Who the hell is this investor? He might as well have stayed in the poor crew before. Now there is no poor crew to stay in. I hope he loses all his money and this drama is so bad that even his parents won't recognize him."

She cursed indignantly, and Shen Li chuckled: "Don't tell me, it feels good to hear you curse like that."

"Then I hope the investors withdraw their investment and the actors run away temporarily..."

"You can't do this, you have to scold harshly..."

Next, I heard Xie Xiaoqin speaking alone. It turned out that she was just an employee who only dealt with Party A. She was so aggressive that she could support ten evil sword masters.

The two fell asleep while laughing and cursing, and left the crew early the next day.

This kind of thing would become awkward if left for too long. Shen Li had been getting along well with other people these days, especially Qin Jiang.

As soon as she got off the high-speed train, Shen Li received a message from Qin Jiang. It seemed that he knew that she had been replaced and came to comfort her.

Shen Li politely replied to his message, saying that he was fine and had arranged other work at the company. He also wished him all the best, and the other party didn't say anything else.

The two returned to their residence. They originally wanted to have dinner with Gu Jingcheng in the evening, but when they picked up their phone, they remembered that he was on a business trip, so they exited the chat interface.

Cao Ruian, who knew about this, was also anxious and angry, and now he took out the script that he had passed before and read it again.

Since there was no other work arrangement today and knowing that Chen Pingan would go to the hospital today, she made an appointment with Xie Xiaoqin and gave him the card that He Qi gave him last time.
