Cute Brother Badass Family Protector

Chapter 230: The Bad Situation

“What I didn't expect was that Tan Jinqi was backed by Director Hou .. There's no way I can get him into trouble now unless I do it behind everyone.”

If Ding Mengfei only knew that not only was Tan Jinqi disciple Hou Yuehai, but he also came from a wealthy family, he was also, he would never go through what he had just planned and would try to lure her with him instead.

Unfortunately, he doesn't know that. And, when he would find out in the future and realize that he had just given up a good chance of marrying a rich child, he would be destroyed by his own choice.

“Good. Just leave this to me, ” said Lin and pulled out his phone to make some calls.

Inside his phone was a dozen paparazzi who would do anything to get scandals.

It was normal for people in his line of work to get in touch with these people.

At sunset, Tan Mo walked out of Professor Tang's research room and headed straight to the canteen. He quickly finished his dinner and headed to the library to finish the rest of the script.

Before he started work, he opened a group chat for the crew to see if there were any updates, and the first thing he saw was some screenshots from social media.

“According to our sources, one of the historical dramas currently in the process of filming that claims to have accurate historical content has hired a greenhorn scriptwriter with no prior experience. Not only that, the scriptwriter is also a consultant on the history of the drama. Will we be able to see a truly historically accurate drama?”

Below the text there are several screenshots of the conversation from the source.

The news was spread all over the internet, and everyone had a screenshot of the same conversation, proof that the source was actually genuine.

“Who leaked this?” Assistant director Liu shouted. “Scripts work as consultants too! They're really talking about us.”

The only thing not mentioned in the news is the title of the drama, as these scandals tend to avoid doing so as it can cause them a lot of trouble.

Moreover, one could easily know what the news meant.

Since it was all a clear guess, no one could blame the news agency.

“I'm not sure. Our crew is huge, and we also have a lot of extras. One of them could have leaked it..” replied Staff A.

“But, we've all signed NDAs, including extras. It is clearly stated that we cannot expose anything that happens in this production to the public,” Staff B said.

“Stay alone, there is no way we can know who leaked the information as long as they remain anonymous.” sigh Staff C.

There was no way Tan Mo could ignore the situation. He quickly jumped into his social media accounts, only to find that the netizen's reaction was quite one-sided.

^^^“Isn't that post really talking about one particular drama? “Legenda Wei and Jin”! They have promoted the drama as historically accurate. I really liked their casting. Let's hope the script doesn't ruin everything.”^^^

^^^“True? Many dramas are now ruined because of bad stories. Even hiring the best actors will not save them.”^^^

^^^“Didn't they treat this like a children's game? Who is the scriptwriter? Do they really give the most important work of such a big project to anyone?”^^^

^^^“Typically, they will hire the best in the business for something like this. Also, is no one going to talk about the fact that the scriptwriter also works as a consultant? Is the director in his right head?"^^^

After closing the application, Tan Mo quickly left a water bottle on the table to tell the other students that it was taken because the library was usually crowded and it would be excruciating to find an empty seat again.

He then grabbed his bag and left the library to call Director Liu.

It took him several tries before he could contact her. Tan Mo could guess that the situation really made the director dizzy.

“Director. I just saw the post online. Did you get in trouble from sponsors?”

Director Liu was once again amazed by how clever the young woman was, that she could understand what would happen when the scandal was revealed.

“Don't worry about that,” sighed Director Liu, trying to convince Tan Mo even when there were some problems with sponsors. “Sponsors don't know what's really going on yet, and they haven't read the actual script. It was normal for them to have some questions. All I have to do is explain the situation to them. There's no way we're changing you. You're like the soul of this drama now. Without you guys, this drama wouldn't even happen.”

“So... Then, I won't bother you anymore. Let me know if there's anything I can do.”

“I will. But, there is no way I will let a little girl help solve my problem.” Director Liu laughed.

After hanging up the phone with Tan Mo, the director quickly called the sponsor to explain the scandal.

As for Tan Mo, he quickly dialed his brother's number.

Tan Jinqi also told Tan Mo not to worry about her.

“I'm not worried. If the sponsor really wants to step down, then we can sponsor the drama itself.” Tan Mo wasn't even worried because his father had more than enough money to sponsor everything.

However, Tan Jinqi fell silent. Sister... shouldn't you talk about this with Dad first?

“With Director Liu directing the drama and me producing the script, I believe this drama will be a success as long as there is nothing wrong with the rest of the part,” Tan Mo said confidently.

Fortunately, he was alone at the end of the corridor, or someone would laugh at him for bragging.

“This is definitely a win for anyone who sponsors this drama.” Tan Mo's confidence did not drop in the slightest.

“You're right.” Tan Jinqi nodded. Maybe because of Tan Mo, even he was now full of confidence. “Are the sponsors really going to back out on such a big occasion? Well, it sucks for them if they do.”

However, unlike Tan Mo who was alone, Tan Jinqi was not. He was surrounded by Director Liu and all the other producers and creators, and everyone turned to glare at him before sighing deeply, wishing they had his confidence.

Meanwhile, Ding Mengfei was enjoying her time exploring the comments on her trailer.

People began to wonder if the crew were really trying hard to create the drama and began to question who exactly the scriptwriter was.

The main problem that everyone seems to have is the fact that the crew has hired an inexperienced scriptwriter for this year's drama challenger.

The job is not for someone who does not have about 20 years of experience.

^^^“You know what? This is when we live. I'm sure the scriptwriter just gave the studio a lot of money to get this job. Otherwise, how could a greenhorn possibly work for such an important project?”^^^

^^^“Maybe sponsors are just trying to boost their own celebrity popularity? They don't really care about the script.”^^^

^^^“But, doesn't that beat the goal? No one will watch it if the script is bad.”^^^

^^^“Serius, can't they focus on making a good drama? I couldn't even find a decent one recently. What do these studios think?”^^^

^^^“Agree! Remember “CemeteryMount”? I was so excited for it, but the drama was like shit because they were trying to increase anyone's popularity. Heck, the man has a screen time of 30 minutes in each episode despite playing a small role, and the main actor only has about 15 minutes.”^^^

People are discussing “Legenda Wei and Jin” in such a way that it becomes the most searched topic instantly.
