Rebirth: I made my fortune by navigating the entertainment industry

Chapter 17 You damned piece of trash!

"Alright, you're a complete failure too. Everything you learned on the set of The Piano Tuner is useless. It's like a bear breaking corn cobs, picking one up and throwing it away!"

"Go back to the hotel and copy the script!"

After failing the sixth time, Shen Luo got angry.

Yan Qingning felt wronged after being scolded, but Shen Luo showed her no mercy, which made Qingning's nose tingle and tears flow uncontrollably.

The staff and actors around them were so frightened by the fact that Shen Luo had been scolded to tears by Yan Qingning that they dared not utter a sound.

After all, Yan Qingning and Wu Qian are not the same. Wu Qian is a seasoned veteran, so it's okay for her to be strict. But for a sweet and soft little cake like Yan Qingning... why be so strict?!

Damn straight men!
Shen Luo watched as Yan Qingning silently shed tears.

His expression remained calm and composed; what was there to comfort him about?
He was being lenient with her. If it had been a famous director or senior with a strange temper, they certainly wouldn't have scolded her like that, because if it happened just once, they would never work with Yan Qingning again.

"Alright, you should say less."

In the end, Wu Qian came to the rescue. It was the first time she had spoken to Shen Luo so firmly since joining the crew, but she only said this one sentence...

After Wu Qian left with her arm around Yan Qingning's shoulder, Shen Luo sighed softly, turned around and said to the crowd, "Continue, everyone stop watching the show."

After he finished speaking, everyone rushed over to prepare, fearing that his anger would be directed at them.

Meanwhile, the assistant director hesitated before approaching Shen Luo and reminding him, "Director Shen, the only people who appeared on set this time were Li Yimiao, Chen Gaoguang, and Yan Qingning... Now that Chen Gaoguang and Yan Qingning have been removed from the set, we..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo also felt a headache coming on.

"Ask Yan Qingning if she can still film!"

“She was crying so hard… her makeup was all ruined, not to mention it was Sister Wu Qian who took her away. Should I go and ask her?”

"Then call Li Yimiao and Chen Gaoguang over!"

"You just scolded them..."

"What's wrong with two grown men getting insulted? Yan Qingning cried, so what? Let them cry too! Damn it!"

Shen Luo actually swore!

Damn it, I knew these people were unreliable, but I never imagined they could be this unreliable!

In his previous life, he studied acting at the Beijing Film Academy. Although he didn't end up pursuing that path, he could still wreak havoc in this world!
I never imagined that professional actors in this world would be this bad!
A bunch of trash.

The problem is, they can't even stand a few insults!
No wonder they couldn't climb to Wu Qian's level!
However, Shen Luo thought about it again and realized that it was normal. Every entertainment industry in that world had some useless people.

……

On the other side, seeing Yan Qingning suffer such a great injustice and cry her eyes out... her originally pretty little face was now red from crying, and with her makeup ruined, one side was red and the other side was black...

Wu Qian felt both sorry for her and amused. "Alright, alright, you were talking so casually when you were trying to persuade me!"

"Waaaaah... That's different!"

"Didn't you say this drama would propel you into the ranks of top-tier actresses? You can't even handle this little bit of hardship?"

"Waaah..." Yan Qingning sobbed, her voice choked with emotion. "Who told that damn Shen Luo to curse me so viciously? And the worst part is, in front of so many people! He just told me to get lost..."

"Did he yell at you on the set of The Pianist?" "Yes, he did."

"That'll work then..."

"It's different! He was just serious back then, but now he's swearing!"

"Swearing?" Wu Qian thought back carefully. What was that "fuck" and "your mother"... I don't think I said it when I was cursing Yan Qingning, right?

However, we shouldn't take it too seriously.

After all, she's a young girl; you can't just say "get lost" in her words.

Like my sister, Shen Luo cursed and insulted this and that, not to mention cursing, he even did it directly, and my sister is still fine.
Still young, still inexperienced!
"Don't cry. How about this... I'll talk to Shen Luo myself and let you rest for two days. As for what he said about having you copy the script, just don't do it." As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Qian regretted it.

If Yan Qingning really doesn't listen to Shen Luo...

Who knows how that little bastard will bully her?

Besides, it's not that I didn't copy it, and it came out of my own mouth... If it gets involved again, no way, I'd better just forget about it.

So Wu Qian quickly changed her mind, "You don't need to copy these two days of rest. You can copy them later, okay?"

"call…"

Yan Qingning took several deep breaths, wiped the tears from her face with both hands, and said to Wu Qian, "Sister Qian, I'm not that fragile. I'll listen to Brother Shen Luo. If he tells me to copy the script, I'll copy it!"

"Hey, what brings you to such a sudden change of heart?"

"It's not that I've come to terms with it, it's that I think Brother Shen Luo did the right thing." Yan Qingning picked up a makeup remover wipe from the table next to her and gently wiped her face, saying, "If everyone in the crew were like me, taking a break whenever they felt wronged or unhappy, how could this drama be filmed?"

"Besides, Brother Shen Luo is right to scold me. It's true that I'm not good enough. He has already humbled himself and taught me several times, but it still doesn't work... So I deserve to be scolded!"

"Also, I want to make Brother Shen Luo take back all the things he said to me through my own efforts!"

Seeing that Yan Qingning had made up her mind, Wu Qian nodded in satisfaction, "That's good. The fact that you have this intention proves that I didn't misjudge you."

"Huh?" Yan Qingning coughed a few times. "If I really take a break... Sister Qian, would you think you misjudged me?"

"It's not that bad." Wu Qian sat down next to her. "After all, you're a newcomer, and still a young girl. It's normal to want to run away from something so embarrassing. But as long as you can overcome it on your own later, that's fine."

Perhaps wanting to comfort Yan Qingning, Wu Qian gently stroked her head and talked about her time as a newcomer filming.

"I was... ten or eleven years old at the time, I can't remember exactly. A drama came up to me and asked me to play the daughter of the main character."

"The daughter character is supposed to be a tsundere type, but I was too young at the time and really didn't know how to play a tsundere type. So because of me, it took a long time to get started, and the director was furious."

"In front of the entire crew, they said I was immature, wasted everyone's time, and had no future. They really said some very nasty things!"

Wu Qian couldn't help but shudder after she finished speaking.

She gave a concise version of what she said, and you should know that the director at the time was a woman... When it comes to swear words, women always have the upper hand over men!

"I was so ashamed by their scolding. I was so young, and I cried while acting it out several times. Even the assistant director felt sorry for me and told the director several times that it was too hot and I should take a break. But the director insisted that I couldn't. Even if I cried myself to death, I would have to cry myself to death during the filming!"
