Chapter 33 Du Ran's Show of Good Will
But no one knew the truth, how much effort Kong Nanzhu put into persuading Shen Jun not to interfere too much in this scandal.
In accordance with Shen Jun's usual swift and decisive temper and her intolerance for any injustice, before Kong Nanzhu found her to explain the whole story, Shen Jun had already arranged for her subordinates to collect negative information about Du Ran and contact entertainment reporters. If she was a step slower, the not-so-glorious things that Du Ran had done would have been made public.
The information Shen Jun had was very thorough, and he even found out the true identity of the financial backer behind Du Ran.
Even an outsider like Kong Nanzhu was shocked after learning the other party's identity.
Zhao Muyan, the son of the president of Jiqi Entertainment, currently the executive director of Jiqi Entertainment, and the prince of Jiqi Entertainment.
Zhao Muyan married Yang Yue, the daughter of a well-known domestic director, two years ago. Yang Yue is now a well-known TV director. Her debut work was a big hit and was first broadcast on CCTV. The two often attend major film festivals together. They once studied together in the United States and have a stable relationship after graduation.
Once this kind of thing is exposed, it will not only affect Du Ran's personal future, but also the entire Jiqi Entertainment company.
Shen Jun naturally didn't care about these. In her opinion, any signs that might damage Qin Qi's image should be completely eliminated. She was not afraid of offending the top management of any entertainment company. It was just a small entertainment company, which was nothing compared to Qin's corporate assets.
Kong Nanzhu, however, was deeply worried and wanted to persuade Shen Jun to give up attacking Du Ran no matter what.
She didn't completely believe Du Ran's self-defense. What Kong Nanzhu was worried about was Qin Qi's future development in the circle.
"In the entertainment industry, one move can affect the entire body. If you simply disagree with a few actors, the impact will not be that big, but if you directly confront the top management of the entertainment company, it means that you will have to draw a clear line with all the personnel and resources related to it. Especially Zhao Muyan's wife, we'd better not have conflicts with them. It is said that family disgrace should not be made public. What if they have a marriage by agreement and are both living well? But with this revelation, no one will have a peaceful life." Zhang Di said this when he called Kong Nanzhu for help.
At this time, the only one who could persuade Shen Jun was Kong Nanzhu. After receiving Shen Jun's instructions, Zhang Di became uneasy and went to Kong Nanzhu for help as soon as possible.
Jiqi Entertainment has been developing rapidly in recent years. Kong Nanzhu also feels that if Shen Jun really wants to touch Du Ran this time, it may sow a lot of trouble for Qin Qi's future acting career.
Apart from anything else, the artists under Jiqi Entertainment are flourishing in various fields, and Du Ran is the best representative.
Of course, after knowing the identity of the financial backer behind Du Ran, it is not surprising that she has achieved so many achievements and awards.
After thinking hard for a while, Kong Nanzhu ran back to the Qin family's old house and acted like a spoiled child like never before, begging Shen Jun to put the matter aside for the time being.
It's not that Shen Jun is unreasonable, but she has always been iron-fisted in disciplining Qin Qi, and Kong Nanzhu is not completely sure that she can persuade her.
Fortunately, the final result was good.
After getting Shen Jun's assurance that Du Ran's negative information would not be released to the public for the time being, Kong Nanzhu excitedly called Qin Qi via video to announce the good news. Qin Qi said solemnly, "Thank you."
Kong Nanzhu smiled contentedly, as if asking for credit, with his chin raised to the sky, "I'm very happy to be able to help you."
After the video ended, Zhang Di sighed with relief, "You are more foresighted. If Nanzhu hadn't heard Du Ran's words in person that day, she wouldn't have had the confidence to ask her to speak to the empress dowager."
Xiao Liu's eyes widened. "Teacher Qin had planned to let Sister Nanzhu be the lobbyist from the beginning. No wonder..."
Qin Qi raised his eyes, his eyes slightly warning, "You should know what to say and what not to say."
Xiao Liu suddenly fell silent, but he was still worried in his heart.
You are a couple, is it necessary to go through so much trouble? You are beating around the bush when you want each other to help.
"I heard you said you were here to visit the set, so I came over specially to thank you in person." Du Ran motioned for Kong Nanzhu to step aside to talk, and the two of them walked to a sparsely populated corner, and said in a voice that only she and Kong Nanzhu could hear, "Teacher Qin told me that if you hadn't helped mediate, I would have been torn into pieces long ago."
Kong Nanzhu didn't want to have too much communication with Du Ran. Ever since she learned about her dark history, her impression of this person has plummeted. "You're being harsh. I just don't want to make a big deal out of it, or Xiao Qi will have a hard time in the future."
Du Ran smiled and elegantly tucked her hair behind her ears. "Actually, I have something I want to give you. I have already found out the identity of the person who took the photo last time, but I still lack the key evidence."
Kong Nanzhu was puzzled, "Why do you want to give it to me?"
Could it be that it should be handed over directly to Qin Qi?
"I have discussed this matter with Mr. Qin, but he wanted me to put it aside for now and focus on the movie first. Mr. Qin loves his career, and he doesn't want other things to happen at this time that would affect the progress of the show."
Du Ran did not hide his ambition, "But I think your parents must be very interested in the truth of the matter."
Kong Nanzhu was speechless.
It turned out that Du Ran thought she was Shen Jun's agent.
Du Ran noticed Kong Nanzhu's hesitation and thought that maybe he had misunderstood. Maybe Kong Nanzhu's purpose of coming to the crew was not to investigate the truth for Qin's parents, but just to visit the set.
Du Ran smiled and changed his tone: "But there is no rush for this kind of thing. I will talk to Teacher Qin later when I have solid evidence. The filming over there is about to start, so you should hurry up and watch Teacher Qin filming."
The two people walked towards the direction of the camera, and Shen Xiaomin came to meet them from afar. When she saw Du Ran and Kong Nanzhu walking aside and chatting seemingly familiarly, she immediately felt like she was facing a formidable enemy. She wanted to interrupt their conversation immediately, but the stage manager suddenly came to urge her to prepare for filming, so she had to go change her clothes first. Unexpectedly, when she came out, the two people were still together.
These days, she and Du Ran ignored each other, which had become a consensus within the group, but the appearance of Kong Nanzhu broke the deadlock.
Shen Xiaomin had already changed into her costume, without makeup on. Her face was slightly pale, but her eyes were very lively. "Hello, I'm Shen Xiaomin, and I play Teacher Qin's girlfriend in this play."
Shen Xiaomin had a baby face and a naive and cute smile, without any star airs at all. If Kong Nanzhu had not heard from Xu Qingqing in advance about the bad behavior of her agent, he would probably have had a good impression of the person in front of him.
"Kong Nanzhu, Qin Qi's sister."
"I know. Teacher Qin and I are the same age, so I will also call you Sister Nanzhu. Thank you for taking care of me during this period of time."
Du Ran sneered, "Some people don't need to rush to show off their status as the leading actress, for fear that others will ignore them as passersby."
Shen Xiaomin was not polite either, "That's not like some people who come here to show off their presence when they don't even have a role to play."
Kong Nanzhu was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether he should just walk away, so he had to look up at the sky.
What a blue sky, what white clouds, what a sweet mouth.
I really want to eat marshmallows.
These two people are so noisy.
Qin Qi was conversing attentively with the director about the next shoot. When he came back to look for Kong Nanzhu, he couldn't find her. He looked around and found that she was standing with Du Ran and Shen Xiaomin. He immediately raised his hand, "Sister!"
Everyone was stunned.
Qin Qi's call of "sister" was both natural and full of vitality, as if at this moment, he had shed the halo of the best actor and was just an ordinary sunny boy next door.
It was rare to see Qin Qi being so approachable. Kong Nanzhu immediately walked towards him when he heard the voice. When the two stood together, the picture was extremely harmonious. Qin Qi seldom showed such a friendly attitude in front of others. Many female staff members' hearts were melted by his shouting.
Just ask yourself, who can resist being called "sister" by such a 1.85-meter-tall, handsome and impressive movie star brother?
