658 Loud Slap (1/2)
”You are so very handsome!”
Song Qincheng clapped her small white jade hands, dismissing all that had happened with Zhang Zhongji. Instead, her heart was now filled with joy!
”That's it… really… just once and he passed… how could this be…” on the other side of the room, Zhang Zhongji and those beside him were dumbfounded.
No one could fathom that Chen Xiaobei could meet Feng Yaolun's high expectations.
Over and above that, Feng Yaolun sang praises of him.
Feng Yaolun was notorious for his thoroughness; some might even call it harshness. Throughout the entire filming, Feng Yaolun could be heard throughout: criticizing, scolding, and demanding numerous retakes for a single scene.
A day as such, where Feng Yaolun shouted praises of perfection, and nearly fired the entire filming crew for a scene, was absolutely unprecedented!
”Could this kid be a professional actor? There was nothing to nitpick about his acting at all! If he could maintain this standard of performance throughout, he will surely become a great sensation overnight!
”Yeah! That scene just now was a work of art! That scene is enough to create a viral trailer!”
”How can anyone not be impressed by that? There's something special about that kid – even Tang Mengwan was emotionally affected by him. And that's something no other actors can do!”
...
The audience kept raving on and on about Chen Xiaobei. Their opinion of him completely transformed.
In the beginning, they regarded him as an untried and naïve rookie. What Chen Xiaobei had just done was a slap to their faces.
Needless to say, the one who was hit the hardest was Zhang Zhongji!
He was the one who began mocking Chen Xiaobei and even started a bet to humiliate him – saying that Chen Xiaobei would have to go through not ten or twenty takes but forever, to meet Feng Yaolun's standards.
He had never would have thought that this would be the outcome instead! For that, he was put to shame!
Actions do speak louder than words!
*Snap*
”Zhang Zhongji, what was is that you said just now? I believe it's about if Chen Xiaobei only requiring one take to complete the filming, you'd give me two million. Just transfer the money directly to me! If you don't, I can't help but look down on you!” Song Qincheng quickly fought back – she was not someone who would succumb to being bullied.
Everyone's gaze fell on Zhang Zhongji. Some pitied him, some ridiculed him, while the others laughed at his expense.
It is undeniable that Zhang Zhongji had dug his own grave this time!
”Fine! I will definitely pay you the two million! But the next time, I will make you pay double!” Zhang Zhongji gritted his teeth and wired the two million to Song Qincheng's account.
