I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 142 Wu Baige's Triumph
Looking at Lin Zhilin's fair arms, Wu Baige felt a strong urge to make a move, but there were so many people around!
Suppressing her thoughts, Wu Baige said, "Go! Remember to come to my room when you get back tonight. I still have a lot of acting tips to give you."

But in her heart, she was thinking that the things she had asked someone to buy a few days ago would come in handy tonight.

"Good director."

After saying that, Lin Zhilin turned and left, his expression changing instantly.

She had been all smiles, her eyes full of allure, but now they had turned gloomy.

No one ever considered how much she had sacrificed to get this role.

She's a stunning beauty, yet she's with a decrepit old man, and Wu Baige is always available whenever she's on set.

If Wu Baige weren't so old, she would probably be suffering every night.

"Any news from Cheng Sheng?"

After Lin Zhilin left, Wu Baige asked her assistant.

"I just received a message from them saying that Cheng Sheng just gave the radiant Princess Starlight a good scolding."

The assistant, who was looking at her phone, replied.

If Cheng Sheng were here and heard what Wu Baige's assistant said, he would immediately realize that there was an undercover agent named Wu Baige in the crew.

That's right, he's an undercover agent.

How long ago was it that Cheng Sheng 'scolded' Tian Tian?
Even outside reporters might not know about this, but Wu Baige's assistant found out immediately.

If there wasn't an undercover agent, how could the news have reached Wu Baige's crew at the same time?
Wu Baige did indeed send someone to infiltrate Cheng Sheng's film crew. Since he had a grudge against Cheng Sheng, he wanted to get all the information about Cheng Sheng's film crew as soon as possible, or dig up some dirt on Cheng Sheng, so that he could target Cheng Sheng and his movie as soon as possible.

However, since filming began, the undercover agent has failed to find any wrongdoing in Cheng Sheng's life. Instead, he reports that the filming is going smoothly, which makes Wu Baige feel very bad.

How come you, a young director, never make mistakes?

What about the unspoken rules and exploitation of actresses?
Why not do it?

It's common knowledge that directors sexually harassing actresses is a regular occurrence.

He originally thought Cheng Sheng would make the same mistake, so he planned to have an undercover agent keep a close eye on him. As long as he took intimate photos of Cheng Sheng with an actress, he would use them to create a big scandal and ruthlessly sabotage Cheng Sheng.

I never expected that Cheng Sheng would be such a perfect person, never doing anything so dirty.

This almost broke Wu Baige's defenses.

Don't people all just follow the crowd?

You, Cheng Sheng, are so upright, making it seem like they're so despicable.

If someone like that is allowed to stay in the film and television industry, wouldn't that be breaking the unspoken rules?
No.

He must be kicked out of the film and television industry, otherwise he won't be able to properly sexually harass actresses anymore.

"Find online trolls. No matter what methods they use, make sure Cheng Sheng's reputation is ruined," Wu Baige instructed her assistant.

"Okay." The assistant nodded. This wasn't the first time he'd hired online trolls to smear someone.

After her assistant left, Wu Baige sneered, "Cheng Sheng is still too young. Of all people to insult, he had to insult Da Tiantian. She's a glamorous princess and a major financial backer of the movie."

Wu Baige's investigation process surpassed that of everyone in the production crew. He had undercover agents investigate everyone, from the lead actors to the behind-the-scenes staff.

They've put a lot of effort into signing Da Tiantian, after all, Starlight Entertainment has a very impressive background, and most importantly, since its inception, Starlight Entertainment has only signed Da Tiantian.

A film and television company signing only one actor doesn't seem like running a film and television company at all; it's more like a company set up specifically for one person.

People in the film and television industry aren't stupid; they could tell that Jing Tian's identity was extraordinary. Some tried to investigate secretly, but were warned off.

This also makes people realize that you can't afford to offend Starlight Entertainment or Jing Tian.

As an internationally renowned director, Wu Baige is certainly aware of this.

Now, Cheng Sheng has scolded Da Tian Tian in front of the entire film crew.

This is a slap in the face to our sponsors!
Wu Baige suspected that Cheng Sheng had become arrogant because of a movie, otherwise why would he want to offend Da Tiantian?

Has Cheng Sheng always been this brave?

"Hehe, if you want someone to die, you must first make them go mad. Cheng Sheng, you good-for-nothing, who did you have to offend? If the people behind that woman had put in a little more effort, you would be close to death." Wu Baige said with a sinister smile.

Although Wu Baige is arrogant and looks down on mainland artists, she even sides with Hong Kong and Taiwan artists on set and "targets" mainland artists.

But if Jing Tian were on his set, he wouldn't dare do that, after all, he's a 'sensible' person.

Targeting artists without connections won't cause much trouble.

But if he targets artists with powerful connections, he probably won't be able to make money in mainland China anymore.

This is also where Wu Baige's cleverness lies. He previously attacked Cheng Sheng and his movies online, but he never said anything bad about the female lead of "The Yellow Turban Rebellion".

Because he knew that if he offended Da Tiantian, it would definitely bring him endless trouble.

Starlight Brilliant Films, a company that can afford to invest hundreds of millions in movies, would only promote one person. He wouldn't have dared to even think about it before.

Even if someone is incredibly generous when it comes to keeping a mistress, they wouldn't spend hundreds of millions of dollars on her entertainment!

Either the other party is insane, or that woman has an astonishingly powerful background.

If possible, he actually wanted to invite Jing Tian to play a role as Zhao in "Red Cliff".

Unfortunately, before he could even make contact with the other party, the other party had already established a relationship with Cheng Sheng.

I thought Cheng Sheng had latched onto Da Tiantian's coattails and would have a smooth ride, but who knew he'd end up yelling at her? He really can't tell the difference between the two kings.

Deserve it.

It would be best to offend Jing Tian even more severely, then she would be kicked out of the entertainment industry without even needing to hire online trolls.

Since Cheng Sheng is courting death, he'll definitely give him a push.

He wants to finish filming "Red Cliff" as soon as possible and try to release it next year, so that he can give Cheng Sheng a good slap in the face for failing.

He wants to use the fire of "Red Cliff" to burn Cheng Sheng to death. Not only that, he also wants to use this movie to become a god in China and become the number one director. At that time, he can do whatever he wants with the Chinese film and television industry.

Hey.

Wu Baige felt very proud of the thought that in the future, 18th-tier Hong Kong and Taiwan artists would play leading roles, while mainland A-list actors would play supporting roles.

"Don't rest, hurry up and film, speed up the shooting, and try to finish the movie by the end of the year so that everyone can go home."

Having made the decision, Wu Baige officially announced that filming would be accelerated.

The actors on set all looked like they'd seen a ghost.

The slow filming schedule of "Red Cliff" is all because he himself was picky and made trouble for mainland artists, which affected the filming progress.

Why are they speeding up filming now? What are they trying to do?
