Chapter 599 - 599 Overpraising
599 Overpraising
“You usually call me Brother Gu. Why are you treating me like an outsider now?” Gu Fei continued to chuckle.
Everyone was even more shocked.
Was Jiang Xun on such good terms with Gu Fei?
They had never heard of it before!
!!
However, Gu Fei’s attitude toward Jiang Xun was far too friendly!
They had come here to participate in the competition, and the younger ones hoped to take this opportunity to have more scenes.
The older ones hoped to use this show to prove their acting skills and become famous again.
As such, very few of the guests attending this event had a good relationship with Gu Fei.
There were some artists from Gu Fei’s company among them.
Gu Fei was the company’s shareholder, but he did not manage the company’s affairs and was only responsible for promoting the artistes that needed to be promoted.
Thus, the company got Gu Fei to mention their artistes on the show.
Those artistes treated Gu Fei as their boss, so they naturally had not seen this side of him.
That was why most of them were not familiar with Gu Fei.
Seeing how friendly Gu Fei was toward Jiang Xun, they were both surprised and a little jealous.
Jiang Xun’s connections were already so wide, but she still wanted to snatch the opportunity from them. It was really too much!
Jiang Xun didn’t need to worry about acting!
Jiang Xun smiled and said, “Isn’t this a competition? If you’re calling me so kindly, people will think I’m using the back door.”
Gu Fei waved his hand. “You’ve already joined my team, so we’re on the same team. There’s no need to talk about going through the back door or not!”
Jinxuan was about to signal Youlan to speak.
Gu Fei quickly said, “Let me say one last thing! Jiang Jiang, we’ve made the deal! You promised me that you would join my team, so you have to come! Whether our team can win or not, it’s all on you!”
Everyone was speechless.
“Oh!”
Gu Fei’s words were a little too confident.
Although Jiang Xun could be considered a very well-known person among them, her acting skills were definitely not the best.
Why?
Gu Fei had actually promoted Jiang Xun to such a high position?
He would definitely win with Jiang Xun around?
Gu Fei was praising Jiang Xun way too highly!
With the camera and mic around, no one could say anything.
However, they couldn’t help but wonder if the production team had already decided on a ranking for Jiang Xun internally.
Was she a member of the royal family arranged by the production team?
Otherwise, why would he support her so much?
Or did Jiang Xun bring money in?
The corner of Jiang Xun’s mouth twitched. “Brother Gu, just believe me. Don’t make me a target. What kind of grudges do I have to face?”
Everyone was speechless.
They only thought that Gu Fei was on good terms with Jiang Xun!
Who would have thought that Jiang Xun would be so close to Gu Fei that she would actually joke around so casually in public?
That was Gu Fei!
He was definitely a domestic S-list male actor, a movie king with ten billion box office earnings!
As long as he was in the movie, the box office was guaranteed, and the audience would be willing to pay to watch it!
In fact, the audience even believed Gu Fei!
As long as he acted in it, he believed that the quality of the film would be good and it was worth watching.
Gu Fei cupped his hands in apology. “My bad, my bad. I was too excited to see you, and I was afraid that you’d be snatched away by another team!”
Gu Fei stopped talking and let Youlan continue.
Youlan saw how much Gu Fei was praising Jiang Xun, so she said, “Jiang Jiang’s acting skills are really good. We competed for the same role twice, but I lost to Jiang Jiang both times. With Jiang Jiang’s acting skills, she is totally capable of ruling the world.”
Gu Fei and Jiang Xun frowned at the same time.
Youlan was really overpraising her.
She was too obvious.
Youlan continued, “I also hope that Jiang Jiang can join my team. Jiang Jiang, although you’ve already promised Teacher Gu, you can still consider me. We’re both girls of the same age, so we can talk more casually and have more topics to talk about. Besides, we’re both playing female roles, so there’s more to discuss.”
“I don’t dare to accept the previous ‘totally capable of ruling the world.’ My acting skills aren’t so good that I’m invincible.” Jiang Xun said indifferently, “Also, Teacher Su, you may have misunderstood my age. We’re six years apart, so we can’t be considered to be of the same age.”
Everyone was speechless.
“Jiang Xun is so direct!” Someone couldn’t help but whisper.
Although it would be picked up by the mic, it was fine.
Jiang Xun had dared to say it, so why would she be afraid of other people’s comments?
…
“That’s a little too direct!”
“It’s a little awkward.”
“Actually, Teacher Su has good intentions. She has already taken the initiative to express her goodwill. Jiang Xun’s attitude is a little too much.”
Youlan smiled and acted magnanimous, as if she didn’t want to stoop to Jiang Xun’s level.
“It all depends on Jiang Jiang’s choice. I’m not partial either way.” Youlan looked a little lonely. “Of course, Jiang Jiang probably thinks that I won’t be of much help to her in acting.”
Qiyao was furious, but she couldn’t say anything, or it would be too easy for Jiang Xun to be slandered.
However, Qiyao didn’t care if the mic was there or if it would be picked up by the person next to her. She still whispered to Jiang Xun, “What does Su Youlan mean? Brother Gu is used to joking with you because he’s close to you. But Su Youlan is obviously praising you to death.”
Jiang Xun laughed. “Let her do it. I’m strong enough, so she can praise me but she won’t be able to praise me to death.”
Qiyao’s eyes were starry. Jiang Jiang was so strong!
“She’s so thick-skinned. Her acting skills can’t help you a lot? They can’t even help at all!” Qiyao pouted and rolled her eyes at Youlan.
Guixin said excitedly, “Did the cameraman capture the way Zhang Qiyao rolled her eyes just now?”
…
The cameraman replied that he had captured it and Guixin nodded his head in satisfaction. “Very good! Also, the scene that Zhang Qiyao had just told Jiang Xun must be broadcasted! Put a few words in the trailer!”
He had indeed invited the right people!
Wasn’t this conflict material?
Youlan said a few more things to pull players to her team.
Then, it was time for the voting.
Jiang Xun did not hesitate to pick Gu Fei’s team.
Qiyao made the same choice.
She would go wherever Jiang Xun went anyway.
Gu Fei might not necessarily choose her, but she still wanted to give it a try.
After the three leaders had finished choosing, Jinxuan came to announce the answers and the votes that the leaders had gotten.
“The ones who have joined Teacher Gu Fei’s team are Jiang Xun and Zhang Qiyao!” Jinxuan mumbled, and there were two more people who joined Gu Fei’s team.
After three rounds of selection, the members of each team were finally decided.
Yuexi was invisible in this round. She had a bad reputation and no connections, so she was in the third round and was waiting to be the leader’s final choice.
The other singers and idols all had some connections and fame, as well as the management companies behind them.
The leaders still gave them face and selected them all.
Yuexi did not expect to be the last one.
The other selected people had already taken their seats in their respective teams. The seats around her were all empty, leaving Yuexi standing alone.
