Chapter 852: 852. She Was Using Gu Jingze's Name To Swindle And Cheat

Lin Che was presently in the company. She was reading the details of their new actors with Yu Minmin.

Yu Minmin said, “I’ll send you back later. See if they need any extras. You can bring some of them there to give it a try.”

Lin Che said, “Alright then. Anyway, if they’re paid the same as the other extras, the director probably won’t say anything.”

Yu Minmin said, “Subsequently, I also want to try signing on some singers. However, singing doesn’t make much money now and it’s also too tiring to earn money through gigs. I’m still considering signing on talented singers from those talent shows. If their image is good, it will be easy for them to switch to acting once they become famous through singing.”

Lin Che said, “Alright. I’ll leave these things to you. I’ll head back to the set first.”

“Come on. I’ll go back with you.”

The two of them returned to the set. The moment they entered, they saw Peng Yu kicking up a fuss.

It seemed that someone had given her something unpleasant again. She was in the midst of a tantrum.

Everyone was avoiding her like the plague and quickly moved aside. They hastily greeted Lin Che when they saw her at the back.

Lin Che pulled someone to her and asked, “What happened here again?”

“Sister Che, she said that her costume hasn’t been washed but costumes like these can’t be washed often anyway. The appearance of the costume will change. What if it doesn’t look good when she wears it? We only made a few costumes in total and each one was very expensive. Even though it stinks a little now, there is no way around it either. All period dramas are like this. How can there be no odor on the clothes when the weather is so hot?”

Lin Che knew this too. There was no helping the stronger smell of sweat when the costumes were thicker, so they usually brought some perfume to cover up the smell. Filming was a very tough process, to begin with. Everyone had experience over the years too.

Yu Minmin asked, “Isn’t the director going to do anything? It’s so annoying for her to stir up trouble like this. Seriously, don’t act if you want to behave like a rich young heiress. She’s disturbing others and making them uncomfortable too.”

“He can’t do anything. People say that her connections run very deep. That’s why she was able to land the job directly.”

“Ha. So she got the job through connections. But what connections does she have to make the director so fearful?”

“About that…” The person dared not respond to Yu Minmin’s words. After all, she knew the relationship between Yu Minmin and the Gu family. That was her brother-in-law… she would not be angry, right?

Yu Minmin seemed to sense her fear. She said calmly, “You can relax and tell me. Just let me know. If her connections are really that powerful, we will be warier in the future too.”

“Sister Yu must be joking. Of course, you don’t have to be wary but we really can’t afford to offend her. Rumors say that she’s connected to… the head of the Gu family, Gu Jingze…” There was no need for further explanation. Everyone knew what being connected to him meant.

The staff did not find it strange when she saw Lin Che and Yu Minmin look at each other in surprise. After all, although many people in the industry had some connections, it was nevertheless uncommon to have connections to someone as powerful as Gu Jingze.

She said frantically, “But please don’t say that I told you…”

Yu Minmin dismissed her with a wave before asking Lin Che, “What the hell is this? When did your husband get involved with her?”

Lin Che said, “She is way too good at making up things. Gu Jingze would not even lay a finger on her.”

“But I can’t believe everyone believed what she said. That director is way too gullible.”

“Who knows?” Lin Che found it strange too, but she nevertheless said to Yu Minmin, “Don’t bother about her first. Let’s observe her secretly to see what tricks she’s trying to pull.”

The two of them went in and saw that Peng Yu had just finished throwing a tantrum. When she turned to see Lin Che and Yu Minmin, she scoffed angrily and walked away.

The people inside were still complaining. “Seriously. She just knows some powerful figures.”

“That’s enough. Her sponsor is definitely not an ordinary person. If he really wants to support her, all of us will lose our jobs.”

“Then, we can only let her make a fuss. It’s really annoying. We’re so busy but we must still wait upon her.”

“Even the director can’t do anything about it. What can we do?”

Yu Minmin scoffed and looked at Lin Che. “Everyone is on their tiptoes just because the rumors say that she has some connections to Gu Jingze. If they knew that his wife was here, they would definitely worship you.”

Lin Che nudged Yu Minmin. “Don’t spout nonsense. It’s not like I’m going to become a deity. Why would I let them worship me? Let’s go.”

The director called Lin Che in to watch the first part of the trailer.

The first part of the trailer looked quite good. There were several different versions of clips where they battled in wits and strength. It did not look draggy at all. It was fast-paced and vivid.

The director complimented Lin Che, “Lin Che, your condition is getting better and better.”

Lin Che said, “It’s because you’re good at what you do. You give me such good guidance.”

“Dear me. I wouldn’t dare claim credit for it. It’s because your foundational acting skills are good.”

On her end, Lin Che had always said that she would not interfere with the overall production. As long as it was reasonable, she would not say anything more and would do what she was supposed to do as an actress. She would state her opinions if she thought that anything was lacking. But she would definitely not insist on having her way. Her only request was for the product to be good.

However, after Peng Yu saw the trailer, she immediately threw a tantrum.

In the production control room, she said to the director, “Look, you gave Lin Che so much screen time but you gave me so little. Don’t you feel bad? Aren’t both of us female leads?”

The director hastily said, “Peng Yu, calm down. Although both of you are female leads, the positive character must have more scenes. Don’t worry. Even though you have less screen time, negative characters are always more impactful. You don’t need too much screen time…”

“You don’t have to make it sound nice. You know who I am. Don’t you know what the person backing me up does? He only has to stomp his foot and your script will no longer exist. Yet you still dare to offend me? Hmph.”

The director’s face immediately turned pale. Although he felt irritated, it was true that he did not dare to offend her either.

Peng Yu was rotten to the bone but men simply liked her. No one knew exactly how many sponsors she had backing her up so even though they all knew that she was rotten, there was nothing they could do since she had people protecting her.

“Of course I want everyone in the cast and crew to have a harmonious relationship. This is just a trailer. We haven’t edited the entire thing. Don’t be so anxious either.”

“In any case, if you don’t satisfy me, you can forget about releasing the trailer!” Peng Yu huffed and immediately walked out.

Once she was outside, seeing the director’s response, she thought to herself that Gu Jingze’s name was useful, as expected.

Lately, she had been going about swindling and cheating using Gu Jingze’s name. She did not expect so many people to be so afraid of Gu Jingze. So many people were waiting to curry favor with Gu Jingze. Right now, she was in talks for two endorsement deals and three scripts. All of them were definitely very good scripts.

She really did not understand why Lin Che did not make use of Gu Jingze when his name could be so advantageous.

It had to be because Gu Jingze did not allow her to do it.

Peng Yu thought that she was still much more intelligent. Lin Che would end up dying of regret. If she obeyed a man’s words strictly, how would she continue surviving in this industry with her level of intelligence? When the man no longer wanted her, she would end up with nothing too.
