Entertainment: The Path to Best Actor for Talented Actors

The director bowed and replied with a smile, "You're too kind, teacher. It's nothing."

Mei Ting smiled and said, "Director, our two friends are both young. They don't have much acting experience yet, so please take good care of them and give them guidance."

The director smiled apologetically and patted his chest, assuring everyone there would be no problem.

Finally, she jokingly added, "I believe with the director looking after them on set, they shouldn't be bullied, right?"

"I……"

Although the director had a smile on his face, he was almost crying inside.

Thinking to himself, "They're still getting bullied? With all these big shots around, who's blind enough to dare bully them? It's good enough that they're not being bullied!"

"She even beat up the second male lead a couple of days ago!"

Standing next to Zhang Ze, Gao Yang asked curiously, "Brother Ze, are teachers Bao Jianfeng and Mei Ting also part of your network?"

Zhang Ze smiled slightly, a hint of self-deprecation in his expression. "I don't have that much influence; it's all thanks to your sister-in-law's connections!"

The director felt extremely cautious when facing such a group of A-list celebrities.

He was so nervous that he was sweating. He carefully saw the group off, and the film set, which had been quiet just moments before, suddenly became lively.

Some of the extras said, "Holy crap! I was so scared I didn't dare say a word."

"Yeah! That's terrifying, they're all big names!"

"I was afraid the director would pee his pants! I was staring at him the whole time, what a pity!"

Instead of participating in the discussion, the lead actors warmly approached Gao Yang and Liu Jing and started chatting, even offering to add each other on WeChat to stay in touch.

Outside the film set,

The director watched Zhang Ze and the others leave.

He said to the assistant director next to him, "Quickly call the screenwriter over, I have something important to discuss with her."

The director wondered, "Why are you suddenly asking the screenwriter for this?"

Seeing the assistant director's expression, the director muttered to himself, as if explaining, "They've all been asking me to give them more pointers on their acting, but how can I give them more pointers when they don't have enough screen time! Looks like I'll have to give these two more scenes!"

After saying goodbye to the director, Zhang Ze traveled together with Bao Jianfeng and Mei Ting.

It is now late autumn.

Bao Jianfeng was wearing a brown overcoat with the collar turned up, his chin tucked inside for warmth.

"Zhang Ze, I heard from Zeng Lai that you're a great actor and have a wonderful personality! I haven't heard her praise someone like that in a long time!"

"Sister Zeng Lai took good care of me, thank you for her praise!" He smiled slightly.

They decided to keep their relationship a secret for now.

It's mainly because Zeng Lai is protecting him. Right now, his career is on the rise, so it's best to keep their relationship a secret.

Moreover, there is a significant age gap between the two, and if this gets out, it will definitely cause controversy.

It just so happens that both of them prefer to keep a low profile, which suits them perfectly.

"Hey, you look familiar! Haven't we met somewhere before?" Bao Jianfeng suddenly looked at Zhang Ze seriously.

"Haha, my first film after entering the industry was with Bao Jianfeng. I was just an extra back then and we only went over a few lines!"

"Really? Which movie?" He asked, somewhat surprised.

"Tiexi Renjia, you collaborated with Teacher Wang Yan."

"Oh...that drama!" Bao Jianfeng suddenly realized.

"You're something else! You've gone from an extra to this level in just a few years. Most people wouldn't even dare to dream of that!" Bao Jianfeng said admiringly, putting his arm around Zhang Ze's shoulder.

Having worked together before, Bao Jianfeng and Zhang Ze spoke to each other more warmly.

Little did he know that this young man in front of him had secretly won over his goddess; otherwise, he wouldn't be so kind and approachable!

Thanks to the advancement of technology.

Not long after Zhang Ze and his group left, news of Bao Jianfeng and Mei Ting's visit to the set reached the investors and even alarmed the Hengdian World Studios Actors Association.

"Sunny Entertainment said they'd blacklist these two featured actors; I think that's a complete joke!"

"With so many big names backing them, these two actors can practically do whatever they want in Hengdian. Who would dare offend them?"

Several staff members in the Actors Guild were discussing it.

"Stop standing around like idiots! Quickly upgrade these two featured actors to top-tier status. Start by currying favor; who knows, they might become rich someday!" someone with a knack for making a living suggested.

At this time, Liu Yiyang's agency also learned about the mobilization of the 96 star class and immediately ordered Liu Yiyang to contact Qin Shuangshuang and hold a banquet that night to apologize.

"What! You want me to apologize?"

"No way, impossible."

Inside a hotel suite, Qin Shuangshuang shouted in disbelief.

"They have powerful connections; it won't be easy to handle this without an apology!" the second male lead said helplessly.

"Look at my face, so many scars! I haven't even sued her for disfigurement yet! And now she's making me apologize instead, I can't accept that!" Qin Shuangshuang slapped her cheeks a few times in agitation.

"Liu Yiyang, didn't you always boast about how powerful you are and how influential your family is? How come you were scared by two extras in the end! Are you even a man? Your woman was bullied, and instead of seeking revenge, you expect me to apologize!"

"Should I go to his bed and apologize to him? You're not a man..." Qin Shuangshuang said viciously like a shrew.

"Slap!" A loud slap landed on Qin Shuangshuang's face.

Qin Shuangshuang raised her hand to touch her cheek, her eyes red and resentful as she looked at him.

Liu Yiyang angrily retorted, "Whether I'm a man or not, you know best. Don't keep calling yourself my woman; you're not worthy!"

"You're just a tool for venting my desires. Saying you're my woman is me being polite, but you need to have a clear understanding of your place in that relationship!"

Liu Yiyang waved his hand dismissively and said in a serious tone, "Come with me to apologize tonight, or you can forget about working in Hengdian! I can't handle them, but I certainly can handle you!"

"You can try it if you don't believe me."

Qin Shuangshuang's eyes were filled with panic and regret, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

The director and producer of the film crew acted as mediators, inviting Gao Yang and Liu Jing to conduct a private mediation with Liu Yiyang.

That evening, Zhang Ze and Gao Yang and his wife went to a banquet together.
