Pregnant After Healing the Alpha Chapter 477

Chapter 477: Chapter 466: The Relationship Between Qiao Jing and the Famous Director Chapter 477: Chapter 466: The Relationship Between Qiao Jing and the Famous Director It was Gu Yunchen.

Qiao Jing's eyes betrayed a hint of surprise as she glanced at Yu Yangqi.

“Second brother, I'm leaving first.”

Had the third brother finally remembered to contact her at this time?

She was quite looking forward to seeing what kind of theme the third brother's new drama would be.

Yu Yangqi nodded and saw Qiao Jing off to the taxi before leaving.

Qiao Jing pressed the answer button.

“Hello?”

A cool and indifferent voice of Gu Yunchen sounded.

“Boss, my new drama has started filming, are you free to come over today?”

Qiao Jing thought briefly and agreed.

“Okay, send me the address.”

She and the third brother hadn't seen each other for quite a while, and now it was a good time to go and see him.

Gu Yunchen gave a grunt and then hung up the phone.

Soon, Qiao Jing received a location message.

Inside the film set.

Gu Yunchen was sitting in front of the monitor, watching the images on the screen.

Qiao Mengtong was currently dressed in ancient costume, filming a scene in the set-up environment.

This section mainly tells of a concubine dancing gracefully in the back garden, but they had already had several takes of it,
and Qiao Mengtong's solo performance had already been shot several times.

Gu Yunchen's brows furrowed tighter and his expression grew colder.

“Cut!”

Qiao Mengtong's movement stopped at the sound, and she cautiously looked toward Gu Yunchen.

“Director… I can do it well, don't worry, maybe shoot someone else's part first? I'll go practice some more…”

She had no background in dance, so naturally, she couldn't produce such a natural scene.

This time, she had obtained her role through a bit of a special channel by climbing up from the assistant director before the director had finalized the casting.

Last time the person she had spoken to about signing onto the drama was actually just the assistant director.

She had heard that although Gu Yunchen was young and skilled, he also had a typically handsome face for the entertainment industry.

Yet with such a face, he was usually cold and silent, focused solely on studying the scripts, which gave people an unapproachable vibe.

Moreover, during filming, he was particularly serious. If an actor made a mistake, he wouldn't lose his temper like other old directors. Instead, his dark look could be terrifying, and he could replace an actor at any time, even leading ones.

No actor didn't want to act in Gu Yunchen's films; he never had to worry about finding actors.

She had barely scraped by these past few days, and she couldn't falter on this!

Gu Yunchen's icy gaze fixed on Qiao Mengtong, his face ominously dark as he slowly spoke.

“If you can't shoot, then someone else will.”

His film crew did not allow anyone who affected the progress.

As for this female lead, he hadn't gone through the casting process.

When he was in the cave, he had given the general theme to his collaborator, the assistant director, who then directly signed a female lead, saying she was very suitable for the role. Apart from the scenes shot in the past few days that were passable, he had reluctantly agreed.

But if this person called Qiao Mengtong couldn't act well, he wouldn't hesitate to have her pack up and leave.

The other actors around also started feeling dissatisfied, as the scene with Qiao Mengtong had already taken an hour or two, wasting a lot of time.

“Can this female lead act at all?”

“I remember she used to shoot those borderline commercials, right? How did she become the female lead? Could it be…”

Hearing the surrounding whispers, Qiao Mengtong felt furious inside, yet she couldn't show it.

She immediately cast a pleading look towards the assistant director.

Initially, the assistant director didn't want to get involved, especially since he didn't want to offend Gu Yunchen.

But, owing to his private relationship with Qiao Mengtong, he couldn't help but speak up for her.

“Director Gu, could we let her practice this segment a bit longer? Otherwise, it will delay everyone's time.”

Gu Yunchen frowned and grunted in response.

“Shoot the male lead's scenes.”

Qiao Mengtong immediately ran to the side to start practicing her dance.

After the male lead's scenes were shot, it was Qiao Mengtong's turn again.

Qiao Mengtong felt uneasily nervous; her practice just now was undoubtedly last-minute. Although she was more fluent than before, her performance wasn't very stable.

If she was lucky, she might get through it in one go, but if not, she would have to practice it several more times.

Gu Yunchen's eyes fixed tightly on the monitor, his brow furrowed.

“Action!”

Qiao Mengtong gritted her teeth and gave it her all, starting to dance energetically as per the script.

She suddenly realized that her luck was good this time, her dance steps hadn't missed a beat, and she was about to make it through!

Just as Qiao Mengtong was self-satisfied, Gu Yunchen suddenly called “cut”.

Qiao Mengtong's movement stopped abruptly, and she looked at Gu Yunchen anxiously and angrily, yet she couldn't dare talk back.

“Director Gu, I didn't make a mistake this time, right? Why did you call cut again?”

She was just a bit away from finishing. Why did Gu Yunchen suddenly call cut?!

Being able to dance continuously this time didn't mean she could do it next time; it was entirely based on luck!

Gu Yunchen ignored Qiao Mengtong because his phone rang.

It was definitely a message from the boss.

“The female lead, go take a rest, we'll shoot the next scene.”

After dropping this phrase, he took out his phone in public and opened WeChat.

Qiao Mengtong was so irritated she almost cursed on the spot; she had struggled hard, and just when she was about to make it through, Gu Yunchen began playing with his phone?

Hadn't she heard Gu Yunchen hated when others interrupted his shooting?

How could he interrupt the shooting himself to check his phone now?

Who could be so important??

Qiao Mengtong clenched her fists, angry yet unable to voice it, and she quickly walked out of the set to get some air.

Qiao Jing approached the set entrance and, instead of entering rashly, texted Gu Yunchen first.

“Big Brother Three, I'm here. Should I come in directly?”

Gu Yunchen quickly replied to her message.

“Yeah, Big Sister, come on in.”

Qiao Jing then put away her phone, just about to enter when she encountered an infuriated Qiao Mengtong walking out.

She didn't plan to pay attention to Qiao Mengtong and was ready to go straight in.

She was merely visiting the set and wasn't there to watch Qiao Mengtong indulge in her delusions of grandeur all by herself.

Qiao Mengtong, upon seeing Qiao Jing, displayed a look of astonishment.

As she saw Qiao Jing about to pass her by, she reached out trying to grab her.

“Qiao Jing?”

She hadn't expected Qiao Jing to come to the set; just last time she had already humiliated her using her status as a female lead. Now, with the posture of a female lead, she could definitely crush Qiao Jing.

The incident at Zhouhuan Restaurant was just an accident, if it weren't for that cousin who lacked capability but still feigned competence, causing her to lose face in front of Qiao Jing!

This time she wanted to show Qiao Jing who the real female lead was!

Qiao Jing slightly sidestepped, avoiding Qiao Mengtong's entanglement, and continued walking forward without stopping.

Seeing her about to walk away, Qiao Mengtong immediately chased after her.
