Chapter 1028: Trouble on the Film Set
But just at this moment, a woman walked over aggressively with a group of people; she was Wang Zhen, who had just arrived surrounded by a crowd.
"Is it her?" Wang Zhen pointed at Zhang Yanxi and sternly questioned the stage manager.
"Miss Wang, the director only said to add a few scenes, he didn't say he was replacing your role as the second female lead, please don't be angry," the stage manager said, caught between a laugh and a cry while carefully apologizing.
He certainly knew that this Wang Zhen was someone who could not be offended, but the Zhang Yanxi before him was highly regarded by the director, so he was now caught in a dilemma.
"Shut up, no one in this film crew can compete with me. You're called Zhang Yanxi?" Wang Zhen stared at Zhang Yanxi and barked.
"Yes, I..."
Before Zhang Yanxi could figure out what was going on, Wang Zhen swung a slap across her face.
Slap... Caught off guard, Zhang Yanxi let out a scream, and five finger marks quickly swelled up on her face.
"What are you doing?" Chen Yu stepped forward and shoved Wang Zhen away.
"You little slut, trying to compete with me? Are your wings fully grown yet?" Wang Zhen said sternly: "I brought capital into this production, and I have investors backing me. A newcomer who has never even shown her face wants to cut in here and snatch my resources?"
"I was wondering why the director would change the script; so it's because you have a bit of looks, but you've come to the wrong place today." Wang Zhen turned her head and said: "Someone, strip her clothes off for me and drag her around the set."
Chen Yu understood the general meaning of this woman's words: the director must think highly of Zhang Yanxi and wanted to promote her as the second female lead, but unfortunately, this threatened Wang Zhen's position, so this woman came out to cause trouble for her.
"I really don't know what's going on, and I'm not even going to stay, why are you hitting people?" Zhang Yanxi felt extremely aggrieved; her eyes were red, and she was almost about to cry.
She had never suffered such grievances since she was a child, especially when the other party suddenly slapped her for no reason.
"Alright, you really have some tricks, you can play the victim, you're quite good at acting," Wang Zhen sneered: "Let me tell you, in this circle, you won't succeed just by lying on a man's bed with your face."
"Without a few big shots backing you, you'll die in the most miserable and strange way. Stop talking nonsense, strip her clothes off," Wang Zhen said sternly.
"Zhen, Sister Zhen, please don't do this, it won't look good for you either," the stage manager hurriedly blocked her: "Let's talk this over properly, let's go back inside to talk."
"It doesn't matter who comes today, it's not happening," Wang Zhen looked like she would not let it go.
"I'll handle this," Chen Yu comforted Zhang Yanxi, then walked forward: "You're called Wang Zhen?"
"Who are you? Do you have the qualifications to ask what I'm called? Where are the security guards? Are you all dead? Someone has gotten this close to me and you don't see it?" Wang Zhen squinted at Chen Yu, then turned her head and shouted.
Several bodyguards hurriedly stepped forward to stop Chen Yu, but Chen Yu moved, and—smack, smack, smack—he gave each of them a loud slap.
These bodyguards were not experts; they were just hired by this woman to put on a show and make up the numbers. As soon as Chen Yu moved, they all retreated while clutching their mouths, and then they all had blood in their mouths and dared not step forward again.
Chen Yu flickered and arrived in front of the woman, staring at her coldly: "Kneel on the ground and apologize, slap yourself, and today's matter will be settled. Otherwise, I will make sure you can never appear in the entertainment industry again."
"Asshole, what kind of thing are you? What qualifications do you have to talk to me like that? Someone, someone! Drag this trash away for me," Wang Zhen clamored.
She was usually more arrogant than the lead actress on set, so how could she endure this kind of anger? She wanted to beat Chen Yu half to death and strip this woman naked to humiliate her severely.
Slap...
Chen Yu swung a slap across her face.
Wang Zhen let out a miserable scream, and five finger marks quickly turned red on her face. She turned her head and looked at Chen Yu in disbelief.
Chen Yu's slap made the onlookers around them feel a jolt of spirit and secretly cheer. Many people had long been unable to stand Wang Zhen's behavior, but the other party had connections, so most people could only choose to swallow their anger and not have a direct conflict with her.
But this woman had finally met someone tough. Chen Yu dared to slap her in front of everyone, which showed that he was not afraid of trouble at all. This woman was likely going to suffer today.
"You hit me? You actually dare to hit me," Wang Zhen screamed: "Someone, come quickly!"
No one came. The few security guards she brought to put on a show had already been scared off, and now she was the only one there screaming hysterically.
"You wait, you just wait for me, I'm going to call people now," Wang Zhen said while crying and covering her face.
"What's going on?" Just at this moment, a bald director ran over, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the situation before him.
"Director Zhang, you finally came. Look at what I've been beaten into," Wang Zhen pointed at her own face and cried: "I am an artist newly signed by your company, and I'm the second female lead. He beat my face like this, how can I still film?"
"Kneel and apologize, otherwise I will continue to hit you," Chen Yu said indifferently.
"Director Zhang, look at how arrogant he is. Li Zong is the investor, and when I came in, he repeatedly told you to take care of me, but now look at what my face has been beaten into," Wang Zhen pointed at Chen Yu and Zhang Yanxi: "He is standing up for this woman. I don't care, you make this woman get lost and find someone to teach this man a lesson."
"Fine, I'll understand the situation first," Director Zhang felt a headache. He hurriedly walked forward, and when he saw Chen Yu, he couldn't help but be shocked: "You... are you Mr. Chen?"
"That's right, my surname is indeed Chen, but I don't know if I'm the Mr. Chen you're talking about, and I don't know you," Chen Yu glanced at Director Zhang; he didn't recognize this person.
"Mr. Chen, it is you, that's right, we are from Zhongtang Film and Television," Director Zhang's face was piled with smiles.
"Zhongtang? Never heard of it. You are a newly established company, right? Who is the boss?" Chen Yu looked puzzled.
"Our largest shareholder is Young Master Huang, Huang Shaoyu," Director Zhang became more certain of Chen Yu's identity: "He is the actual controlling person behind the scenes. You and Young Master Huang have a very good relationship. I have heard of you and have also seen your photos."
"So it's Huang Shaoyu's company?" Chen Yu suddenly realized.
Huang Shaoyu was one of the Shengjing Six Great Families, and his family business was the Baihua Group, which played a lot in film and entertainment. This Zhongtang Film and Television must be a new one he opened.
"Yes, yes, it is Young Master Huang's company. Our company is newly established, so you might not know it. Mr. Chen, I have truly long admired your name. During the company party, Young Master Huang specifically instructed that the company's people must recognize you," the smile on Director Zhang's face was pleasing; he knew Chen Yu was a big Buddha.
