Chapter 129: Chapter 129: The Movie Was Taken Down
“Sister Yuechi, I asked someone to go to Director Lu for information, but he didn’t find anything about Gu Manxi.” The assistant was still trying to defend Cao Yuezhi. “Director Lu is so bold to use an unknown actress.”
“The female lead is so important. If she messes up, the quality of the entire movie will drop.”
The assistant was chattering non-stop, feeling that it was unfair.
In the assistant’s heart, Cao Yuezhi was the natural female lead. Now, a small insignificant actress had stolen the limelight. It felt like Romeo and Juliet, but Romeo ran away with Rosalinem instead!
The assistant did not notice Cao Yuezhi’s pale face at all.
Cao Yuezhi’s body was trembling.
You had clearly left the industry!
Why did you still come back?
Are you going to continue acting like an innocent white rabbit like you did in the past, stealing my female protagonist’s glory and Lu Shanhe’s Love?
This time, Lu Shanhe had brought her back. Could it be that the old love had been rekindled?
“Gu Ruoxi” was Cao Yuezhi’s nightmare. She was a peak that she could never surpass. Even after she had taken the title of best actress, she would still feel that her reputation was undeserved because “Gu Ruoxi” was more outstanding than she was.
Fortunately, “Gu Ruoxi” had tactfully left the industry and there was no news of her. Cao Yuezhi was secretly pleased. She had spent a large sum of money and used countless connections to delete all the news and photos about “Gu Ruoxi” on the internet. She had even thought of ways to report the movie so that it could not broadcast in the country.
Five years had passed, and the internet had developed rapidly. The entertainment industry had become a paradise for young celebrities and idols. Other than some “old people” in their thirties or forties, not many young people remembered the movie and the beautiful female lead.
After all, the netizens only had seven seconds of memory.
“Yuezchi, Yuezhi?” Cheng Qingyun was keenly aware of her strange behavior. “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
Cao Yuezhi’s face was pale and abnormal. Cheng Qingyun stood up to check on her.
As expected, Cheng Qingyun caught a glimpse of the final photo for the movie.
The coffee cup in Cheng Qingyun’s hand smashed onto the ground…
It was her?
It was her!
________
Zhao Yan’s apartment.
Gu Manxi was discussing with Lu Shanhe about joining the filming crew.
The pre-production preparations for the movie still needed time. It was estimated that they would join the filming crew in a month’s time. Other than shooting at the base, the crew would have to travel to other places to shoot, and they would also have to go to the United States to shoot in New York. The shooting duration of more than half a year was destined to be tiring.
“Don’t take the online controversy to heart,” Lu Shanhe said. “Nowadays, the entertainment industry is impetuous, and actors want to earn money fast. Few deserve to be called an ‘actor’. Manxi, let’s use our strength to speak, and slap those bastards in the face.”
Gu Manxi laughed softly and nodded.
She did not care about the controversy online. She only wanted to act well and fulfill her dream. After becoming famous, she would be able to protect Chuchu from harm.
“Uncle Lu, Mommy, it’s so strange.” Gu Chu sat cross-legged in the corner of the sofa with a small children’s computer on his knee. “Mama used to be called [ Gu Ruoxi ] , but I didn’t find any photos of Mommy online or see any movies she acted in.”
Gu Chu was quite puzzled. It was as if someone was deliberately erasing the traces of Gu Ruoxi’s existence.
“Manxi’s movie was taken down.” Lu Shanhe was not surprised. “The reason was that the female lead in the movie wore a cheongsam that was too revealing and affected the children.”
