“Mo Rao, why don’t you ask the waiter to add a chair?” Director Wang finally spoke because he knew that the people from “Moonrise” were big shots. They might not agree to her request.
Mo Rao looked at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue immediately said, “Director Wang, since Mo Rao has a way to book a bigger private room, we should listen to her. She’s such a good person. We can’t be so ungrateful!”
Didn’t she say she could book a room? Then she would see if Mo Rao could do it. If Mo Rao couldn’t, she would become a laughing stock.
So what if she was Fu Ying’s ex-wife? So what if she was Shen Feng’s current girlfriend? It had to be known that the female lead of “Moonrise”, Nie Ran, was famous in the industry for her bad temper. She hated it when others got in through the back door, pulled strings, and played dirty.
If Mo Rao used Fu Ying or Shen Feng’s status to request a private room, she would probably be scolded.
“No, no, no!” Director Wang panicked. It was fine if Mo Rao and Jiang Yue had a small conflict, but if Mo Rao had a conflict with the another production’s cast members, it would be a scandal if word got out!
When the others saw Director Wang try to dissuade her, they echoed his dissuasion. “Mo Rao, forget it!”
“That’s right. It’s very difficult to book it. It’ll be awkward if you don’t succeed.”
“In the past, there was an A-list actor who tried to kiss up to Nie Ran to get some resources, but was scolded. How pitiful!”
“Don’t go, or else you’ll embarrass yourself.”
Some were tactful, some were direct, some were kind, and some were malicious.
Jiang Yue’s expression was clearly provocative. She was waiting for Mo Rao to embarrass herself.
If Mo Rao couldn’t book a bigger private room, her makeup artist would have to eat while standing!
“Wait a moment.” Mo Rao couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath. She dialed Nie Ran’s number and the call was quickly picked up. “Sister Ran Ran, did you book an entire floor of the hotel for a gathering?”
Sister Ran Ran?!
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Did Mo Rao know Nie Ran?
She was the most popular actress in the past two years!
Ordinary directors wouldn’t be able to invite such a big shot.
Jiang Yue’s expression changed. How was that possible? Didn’t Mo Rao just return to the country? She shouldn’t know many people in the domestic entertainment industry, let alone a person like Nie Ran.
“Rao Rao?” Nie Ran’s voice sounded very hearty and happy. “How did you know? Yes, yes, yes. Are you guys here too?”
“Yes, our production team is having a meal. The private room is too small…” Before Mo Rao could finish speaking.
“Come up! We booked an entire floor. Actually, I booked it. Choose whichever private room you want!” Nie Ran interrupted Mo Rao and said straightforwardly.
“Alright, I’ll come up later.” Mo Rao smiled.
After Mo Rao hung up, the room was silent. Jiang Yue’s expression was very ugly. Someone glanced at her and pitied her for suffering such embarrassment.
Mo Rao picked up her bag and ignored the others’ gazes. She said gracefully, “Let’s go. There’s a bigger private room.”
With that, she left the private room with Hu Ya.
The others already knew who the real big shot was. Mo Rao had really hidden her connections quite well. They thought that she relied on Fu Ying and Shen Feng, but they didn’t expect her to have very powerful connections herself.
Everyone left with Mo Rao and went to the floor where the “Moonrise” production team was having a gathering. As expected, there was someone guarding it. When they saw Mo Rao, they let her in. Nie Ran must have given him a heads-up.
Director Wang caught up to Mo Rao in a few steps and asked in admiration, “Mo Rao, are you very familiar with Nie Ran?”
“Yes.” Mo Rao nodded.
In the beginning, Nie Ran was acquainted with Mo Yuan at first. Later on, she met Mo Rao and got along with her quite well.
Director Wang was very excited. If only he could invite Nie Ran to film the next movie through Mo Rao.
Now, he had to be more polite and respectful to Mo Rao.
Jiang Yue followed at the back of the team. One or two people comforted her kindly, “Don’t be angry. We know you offered to treat us to a meal out of goodwill.”
“Yes, Mo Rao is just being kind as well!”
The more the two of them comforted her, the worse Jiang Yue’s expression became. However, she had to maintain her image, so she didn’t say anything.
Mo Rao had already arrived at Nie Ran’s private room. As soon as Nie Ran saw her, she immediately introduced her to everyone. “Let me introduce her to you guys. This is my sister, Mo Rao. She won the Best Actress Award at a Foreign Film Exhibition! She just returned to the country to develop her career. Everyone, please help her out in the future!”
With Nie Ran’s words, everyone thought more highly of Mo Rao. Many people immediately greeted Mo Rao.
