This small amount of public opinion was naturally nothing to Lu Zhen, but sometimes, to a popular female celebrity, the accumulation of small public opinion was enough to make passersby have a bad impression of her.
Hearing Xu Rui’s words, Mimi fell silent. Looking at Xu Rui’s smug side profile, Mimi sighed in her heart.
Indeed, the entertainment industry could change people. Xu Rui was clearly not like this in the past.
Mimi thought about how Wu Dai had asked Xu Rui to invite Lu Zhen to the birthday party yesterday. Mimi had thought that Xu Rui would ask her to inform Lu Zhen, but she didn’t expect Xu Rui to not look for Lu Zhen at all.
In the end, Wu Dai and the others thought that Lu Zhen had deliberately not attended the birthday party.
In the past, Xu Rui probably wouldn’t have bothered doing such a thing.
Xu Rui continued to flip through the trending searches. “Eh? ‘Chasing Fate’ is also on the trending searches.”
The movie “Chasing Fate” started filming last week. On the day of filming, the production team bought a trending topic, but today’s trending topic was about Lu Rou.
Lu Rou sent a still photo in the wee hours of the morning. In the photo, she was wearing ancient clothes and sitting in front of the window of an antique pavilion. A breeze blew, and her long hair fluttered like a fairy about to ride the wind.
The trending topic was “The new top beauty in ancient costume, Lu Rou, is a goddess who fights for love!”
After scrolling through the trending topic, Xu Rui smiled mockingly. “The number one beauty in ancient costumes? She really dares to call herself that.
She doesn’t even know if she can hold on.”
Xu Rui did not have a good impression of Lu Rou, but compared to Lu Zhen, who had once snatched her role, she hated Lu Rou much less.
Lu Rou appeared in front of the public again after the previous public opinion attack. With Lu He’s efforts to clear her name and Bian Lang’s willingness to spend money to support her, Lu Rou was about to become famous again.
However, Lu Rou was still a little too anxious. “Chasing Fate” had just started filming, and she was already marketing herself as the number one beauty in ancient costumes. Xu Rui knew that she wanted to cover Lu Zhen’s name, but Lu Rou did not think about it. Lu Zhen was not the only one in the entertainment industry who had filmed ancient costumes. Lu Rou’s trending topic would definitely offend many people.
She was really stupid. No wonder she lost to Lu Zhen.
Xu Rui closed her cell phone and slowly stood up. She checked her clothes and makeup before arriving at the set.
As the second female lead in the movie, Xu Rui’s scenes were still very important. However, compared to the female lead, Yue Qin, the existence of the second female lead, Fang Yuan, was more like the opposite of Yue Qin.
Fang Yuan came from an ordinary family. She received spiritual enlightenment from the youth movement in school and developed the desire to serve the country. She resolutely joined the underground party organization.
In the novel, Fang Yuan was diligent, kind, pure, and full of patriotic passion. She was a very positive image. Without a doubt, such a character was charismatic. Otherwise, as the male lead, Jing Ze would not have gradually fallen in love with Fang Yuan during work.
If Yue Qin was a black lotus flower that grew out of the mud, then Fang Yuan was a plum blossom that bloomed in the winter. She was tough and pure, the opposite of Yue Qin.
Such a role was actually very likable. Xu Rui’s company was very supportive of her acting in this role. Moreover, from another perspective, this role was relatively simple to interpret. She could completely grasp it and would not make any mistakes during the acting process.
Yue Qin’s character was different. There were too many stories about Yue Qin, and her twisted life experiences had caused Yue Qin’s personality to become very complicated. When Xu Rui read the novel, she could not completely understand the character, let alone interpret Yue Qin herself.
Xu Rui felt a little indignant that she couldn’t get the role of the female lead, but she also felt much more relaxed.
She knew that her acting skills had not reached the point of perfection. Even if she got the female lead role, she might fail. If she did not act well, she would definitely be scolded badly by the audience and film critics when the movie was released. Those people were very picky and spoke rudely.
Now, this pressure was all on Lu Zhen.
Xu Rui had always been gloating over this matter. However, after gloating, Xu Rui did not want Lu Zhen to perform too well, nor did she want her to perform too badly.
If Lu Zhen performed well, according to Director Ding Zhi, he might even give her many important scenes. When the movie was released, Lu Zhen’s halo would probably eclipse everyone else in the movie, including her..
