Chapter 374 Team Match 143
Having obtained a motorhome from Shen Yubai, Yi Zanglan is currently catching up on sleep while enjoying the air conditioning, and Yan Zhao is driving her to Wu Ying's audition location.
"Old Shen said there are snacks in the small freezer in the back; you can eat them if you want."
Yi Zanglan lay on the bed, sniffing a bottle of melon milk, eating like a ghost.
"I'm already eating."
"Try not to fall asleep. Xiaoying isn't far away, we'll be there soon." Yan Zhao kept an eye on the road while studying the map. "If it's not dark after we see Xiaoying, we might be able to go find Ye Wang. He's doing some GG filming at the old house at No. 109 in the Baihui District."
"OK."
About half an hour later, the two parked the RV in front of a five-star hotel and went straight to the twentieth floor.
It is said that this well-known director Zhang has booked several presidential suites in the hotel and has been spending the last two days auditioning actors for his new film.
Wu Ying is someone he highly regards, and this time it's practically a sure thing.
Yan Zhao arrived at the twentieth-floor corridor. People greeted her along the way, and she responded calmly, but in reality, she didn't recognize any of them.
And no one noticed that a ghost was currently perched on her head, resting its chin on its hand and lazily yawning.
"Ugh, not having a cell phone is such a hassle. Where is Xiaoying auditioning?" Yan Zhao sighed in annoyance, but then, as he turned his head unintentionally, his eyes lit up. "...I think I saw her!"
She ran over quickly, and as soon as she tapped the other person on the shoulder, the other person turned around and revealed a face that was both unfamiliar and vaguely similar to hers.
"Um, who are you looking for?"
They really do look alike. They are about the same age, height, and build, including hairstyle and face shape. It's easy to mistake one for the other without seeing their face directly.
Yan Zhao was stunned, but quickly recovered: "I'm Wu Ying's agent, and you are...?"
"Oh, are you looking for Teacher Wu?" Upon hearing this, the girl immediately became much more enthusiastic. "I'm Teacher Wu's stand-in for her dialogue scenes. She's resting in room 2028, over there."
"...She has a body double, doesn't she?"
"Yes, besides me, there are also stunt doubles and lighting doubles, but they're not here today; they'll be needed for the actual filming."
Yan Zhao raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly, then nodded politely: "Thank you, and I wish you success in your work."
"Okay, okay, take care."
She said goodbye to the other party, went straight to private room 2028, and knocked on the door.
The door opened after only three knocks, and Wu Ying poked her head out, looking around warily before pulling her inside.
"What brings you here for an inspection?"
"We follow the principle of contacting whoever is closest, and you and Lao Shen are the closest." After Yan Zhao finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at her. "Such a sneaky thing, looks like you triggered some plot and realized you're not a good person?"
Wu Ying was shocked: "Isn't that a bit too blunt?!"
"It's okay, don't take it to heart. None of us are good people. If we really compare, you might not even be on the list."
"...Oh really? I wasn't thinking of comparing myself to others."
Yi Zanglan circled Wu Ying twice before finally concluding in a serious tone, "The yin energy is quite strong; it smells like I'm back home."
Yan Zhao frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It means she's guilty of murder, and the other party seems to be harassing her, but it's daytime, so I can't see who it is."
"..." Yan Zhao remained silent for a long time, trying to sort out the cause and effect of this matter. "We just met your stand-in for dialogue scenes."
Wu Ying nodded helplessly: "Yes, I not only have body doubles for dialogue, action, and lighting, but also body doubles for horses, water, and even kissing when necessary..."
"In short, you do nothing and have everyone else do it for you." Yi Zanglan sighed. "When I read the background information this morning, I really thought you were a dedicated and good actor, a rising star in action films."
"I thought so too two hours ago." Wu Ying suddenly fell back onto the bed, looking utterly dejected. "How was I supposed to know? That was all a carefully crafted image created by publicity. Actually, I'm just a resource-backed actress."
"What kind of 'resource-backed' person are you?"
"My dad is rich and sent me into the entertainment industry, but the company deliberately packaged me as an inspirational female lead, saying that this would attract more fans."
Yi Zanglan and Yan Zhao exchanged a glance: "Oh, we're the ones who packaged it."
"Can we do without packaging? This is all royalty, a community of shared interests." Yan Zhao thought for a moment, then asked Wu Ying, "So how did the chairman know you were carrying a murder on your conscience? Whose murder were you carrying?"
Wu Ying replied with a troubled expression: "About half a year ago, a stuntman died when the wire malfunctioned while filming a high-altitude fight scene for me. Later, our company suppressed the news about this incident and paid 100,000 yuan in compensation."
"...A human life is only worth 100,000?"
"Yes, the other party's parents just came to cause trouble again. Director Zhang and my dad have some connections, so he temporarily sent them away for me. But he's worried that there might be hidden dangers that could affect the reputation of my new movie, so he wants me to resolve this as soon as possible."
Who will solve this problem? Of course, the company will.
It will require shrewd company directors and profit-driven brokerage directors to solve this problem.
Judging from Yi Zanglan and Yan Zhao's expressions, they were clearly speechless at the setup of this round. The human and the ghost must have been quite annoyed, wondering why they couldn't be eliminated at the bottom.
Wu Ying tentatively asked the two of them, "You went to see Lao Shen first, right? What's his situation? Is he better off than me?"
"It's hard to judge, they're all pretty much the same." Yan Zhao said frankly, "He had a girlfriend of ten years, but when he was broke, he took advantage of her and even made her have an abortion. After he became famous, he dumped her immediately and pretended to be a golden bachelor. He's both a scumbag and a despicable person."
Yi Zanglan calmly added, "You were instrumental in this."
"My suggestion was just an objective one. The decision is still in his own hands, isn't it? He couldn't resist the temptation and coveted fame and fortune. Did I hold a knife to his throat and force him to break up with me? He's rotten to the core."
Wu Ying echoed, "He really is a bastard."
Yan Zhao looked at her: "But to be fair, you're a bastard too."
"If we were to judge this more fairly, all four of us would be bastards."
"...Alright, you rest first, we'll go to Baihui District to investigate the Wild King."
Yi Zanglan casually replied, "No need to ask, he must be a complete jerk too."

Two hours later.
In the backyard corner of the old villa at No. 109, Ling Ye, still in his bespoke suit, squatted on the steps, ready to be questioned by his team leader.
Yi Zanglan was smelling the cheesecake that Yan Zhao had just bought from the street vendor, taking a deep breath while giving him a cold glance.
"What do you mean that because of your outstanding looks, you had those kinds of transactions with many high-ranking and powerful people, and even introduced many colleagues into the industry to secure your own resources?"
"What do you mean you were asked to organize parties specifically to lure young, innocent, newcomer male actors into drinking with powerful and wealthy people, and then, after drinking, offer them sex?"
Before he finished speaking, Yi Zanglan raised his hand to push him, but then realized that he couldn't touch him, so he instructed Yan Zhao, who was standing next to him.
"Hit him."
Yan Zhao advised sarcastically, "Forget it. His face is quite valuable. If you damage it, the brand will hold you accountable."
"Chairman, I only just learned about these things myself," Ling Ye sincerely reflected. "I hope I can still have a chance to make amends."
"That's hard to say, Teacher Ling." Yi Zanglan shook her head calmly. "You have to get through tonight first. I don't want you to have terminated your contract with the company when I open my eyes tomorrow morning."
"...I will try my best."
