Entertainment: The Path to Best Actor for Talented Actors

Chapter 122 Encountering Thugs Causing Trouble

The official announcement of their relationship has become a hot topic of conversation in the entertainment industry these past two days.

Finally, Zhang Ze's mother, Gao Hongxia, called.

I gave him a good scolding over the phone.

She kept complaining that he hadn't told her sooner that he was dating. She, as his mother, only found out about her son's relationship online.

Gao Hongxia did not object much to his relationship with Zeng Lai.

I only have one request: to have a grandson next year!

Zhang Ze made several promises before he was finally satisfied.

He did not spend much time with Zeng Lai, only five days together, before leaving Dunhuang.

Zeng Lai is indeed a woman who brings good fortune to her husband.

His career has already made a major breakthrough right after the official announcement!

A brand endorsement deal that had been stalled for some time has finally been finalized, with Zhang Ze's recent surge in popularity leading him to agree to a five-year, 300 million yuan endorsement.

Another million in pocket!

Zhang Ze is now full of energy.

He's putting all his effort into making a big splash this year, saving up to buy a house in Beijing so he can propose to Zeng Lai!

Capitalizing on Zhang Ze's current popularity, the production team of "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" released...

News and photos circulated that Zhang Ze trained in a military camp for three months to prepare for filming a TV series, and that he specifically mentioned that it was a special forces unit.

The photos of Zhang Ze in military uniform undergoing various drills have shocked and impressed netizens.

Wow, Zhang Ze is exactly how I picture a special forces soldier! The casting was brilliant!

[It's heartbreaking to see this; it can't be staged, right?]

Are you stupid?! Special forces wouldn't cooperate with a staged photoshoot!

Zhang Ze's popularity online has not waned, and his agency has been guiding him to cultivate an image of a tough military man.

Amidst the heated discussions, Zhang Ze quietly joined the crew to begin filming "I Am a Special Forces Soldier".

His popularity was overshadowed by other major scandals that broke out in the industry.

Half of the weapons and equipment in the TV series "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" were provided by the Southern Metropolitan Military Region.

Stepping into the military compound again, Zhang Ze felt a strange sense of familiarity.

To ensure better filming, the military region specially approved more than a dozen special forces soldiers to participate in the filming and to be responsible for ensuring that the actions and scenes were not leaked.

These were the same people who had trained with Zhang Ze before.

"Great, we can be together for another three months!" Zhang Ze happily bumped fists with them.

Filming "Special Forces" was not easy, as many scenes involved training.

Even though he was just pretending to film, he was exhausted after a day's work, and Zhang Ze felt like he was back in the army again.

After filming for about a month, the crew moved to Yunnan for location shooting.

After finishing work that day, the director took the actors to a barbecue stall near the film set for a meal.

This barbecue restaurant is quite famous in the area.

There are more people in the outer courtyard.

The boss saw that there were more than a dozen of them, and realized that a big business had come in.

He quickly and warmly greeted everyone, "Please come in, everyone! There's room upstairs, and the air conditioning is on, so it won't be hot!"

"Handsome gentlemen, please come upstairs!" The proprietress was voluptuous, with a pretty face and a pleasant voice that exuded the charm of a mature woman.

After the group went upstairs, the proprietress came over with the menu.

"What would you handsome guys like to eat?"

「猪肉串100、羊肉的100、骨肉相连50、羊腰子30、羊蛋15、韭菜5份」

"Do we still need sheep penis? Do you guys need any?" Director Liu Meng asked with a mischievous grin.

"Director, if you want to get some repairs done, just ask for them directly. You don't need to drag us into it."

"We're all young men in our early twenties, full of energy!" Zhang Ze teased the director with a smile.

"Why would I need to get it fixed? Don't slander me, I'm very capable!" The director was anxious, trying to maintain his dignity in front of the boss's wife.

Within minutes, the waiter brought over two plates of edamame and boiled peanuts.

Everyone started eating and drinking.

A group of grown men were drinking together, especially with soldiers.

You can't avoid drinking alcohol.

In no time, the two cases of beer were gone!

"You guys keep drinking, I'm going downstairs to use the restroom!"

The director let out a burp and, reeking of alcohol, shouted something.

No one paid any attention and continued to boast!

About five minutes later, director Liu Meng still hadn't returned.

Suddenly, a commotion came from downstairs.

Immediately afterwards, the director was heard yelling at the top of his lungs, "Hey upstairs, come down here right now! There's a fight going on!"

Upon hearing this, the assistant director looked out the window!

Damn... Director Liu Meng was running ahead, and several thugs were chasing after him, holding up bicycles to smash him!

"Holy crap, get down here right now! The director's been beaten up!"

The assistant director ran upstairs as soon as he finished speaking!

He thought he was fast enough!

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ze, along with six other special forces soldiers, climbed out of the window and jumped from the third floor!

"Holy crap, that's awesome!"

The special forces soldiers' actions startled the diners outside.

In a very short time, the special forces soldiers arrived at the director's side and surrounded the troublemakers.

Zhang Ze asked, "Director, what happened?!"

"What do you want? Looking for trouble, huh?!" the special forces soldiers shouted.

He didn't take these thugs seriously at all.

At this moment, the crew members also came to the director's side.

The thugs were startled when Zhang Ze and the special forces soldiers jumped down from the third floor.

Once everyone had arrived, a dozen or so tall men, each over 1.8 meters tall, surrounded them, and they were immediately too frightened to shout.

They were all internally cursing, "Damn it, we originally had five people on our side and you only had one, so we thought we had the advantage. How come you suddenly have more than a dozen people?!"

Only two people at the scene were being stubborn and making threats!

The director quickly explained how the incident started.

"I went downstairs to the restroom just now, and one of them accidentally bumped into me. I only said 'Watch out,' and they wouldn't let it go, they even hit me!"

One of the special forces soldiers said, "Get out of here if you don't want trouble!"

The thugs were furious, yelling, "Do you fucking know who we are?"

"I'm with Tiger, so don't you dare leave! We're calling for reinforcements!"

Qiao Lei said somewhat flippantly, "Oh! You want to see who has more people? Come on, let's see who has more!"

He took out his military officer's ID from his pocket and placed it in front of the thug.

"Captain... Captain!" the thug exclaimed in astonishment.

"You don't believe it? You think it's fake?"

"Come and see if these are real!"

The other special forces soldiers also took out their identification documents!

"Captain"

"Captain"

"Lieutenant."

……

These thugs are about to cry!

Who did they offend?

They couldn't afford to offend these officers alone, let alone the important figures protected by a group of officers!

Someone who can be protected by a group of junior officers must be at least a major general, right?

They've got Liu Meng in their head!

The five thugs, their faces pale, knelt down!

They cried out, "Brother, we were wrong! We didn't recognize your greatness! Please forgive us!"

They are terrified now!
