Chapter 284  : Does She Deserve It?

Some netizens ridiculed others for their naivety. “You really believe that? How many normal people would break their knees on flat ground? Did she break or dislocate her bones? It’s just that she, Li Lu, is relying on her status as the movie queen’s younger sister to do whatever she wants here.”

‘Once these words spread on the internet, Li Lu’s reputation was questioned by more and more people.

‘When Li Lu saw these words, she suddenly panicked.

She quickly asked sister He for help. “Sister He! There are many people on the Internet saying that I’m using my status as the movie queen sister to bully the production team. They say that I’m not worthy! What should we do?”

Although sister He did not expect this matter to cause a stir on the internet, and it was almost comparable to the PK between Li Yue and Jiang Yu, sister He had been in the entertainment industry for many years.

There were at least eight artists like Li Lu that she had trained.

Hence, sister He didn’t panic when faced with such a situation.

She told Li Lu, “Go on the internet and clarify this matter. Tell them that it’s not because of the knee issue that you’re not filming. It’s because the production team chose to shoot Jiang Yu’s scenes first in order to catch up with the schedule.”

“Will this really work?” Li Lu was worried that the production team would jump out and reject her words. “Will the director and the rest stand up and say that I’m lying?”

“They won’t,” sister He comforted her. “Although the director didn’t change the script according to your sister’s wishes, your sister is the movie queen after all. The director wouldn’t dare to offend her too much.”

“But I’m the one acting in the production team now.” Li Lu was still very afraid.

“It’s alright. You’re the movie queen’s sister. The director will not expose you for Li Yue’s sake.”

“Besides, exposing you will not benefit the production team at all. They might even slow down because of this matter and lose out to the production team of ‘The Chu Family’s Empress’ next door. This is not worth it. The director will make the right decision.”

“That’s good.” Li Lu finally calmed down and clarified this matter on the Internet.

‘As expected, the director team did not expose her. Even Jiang Yu was still immersed in filming and did not pay attention to Li Lu’s lies.

Although there were still people commenting below, expressing that they did not believe Li Lu’s words at all, the popularity of the matter had decreased and there were no longer so many people paying attention to her.

‘And sister He also went to look for Li Yue in order to let this matter be completely suppressed.

Li Yue frowned. She didn’t think that Li Lu would do such a childish thing.

But it had already happened. Even though she didn’t want to admit it, the truth was already like that and there was no way to change it.

So, Li Yue went to the director and said to him, “Director, I want this drama to be filmed and broadcast at the same time.”

“Huh?” The director was stunned when he heard this.

Although the production team had tried to film and broadcast the drama before, it was too rushed. Hence, the effects in the post-production and editing aspects were very unsatisfactory.

The director was also worried that his drama would be reduced in the viewership ratings because of such means, so he did not agree to Li Yue’s request immediately.

Li Yue saw that the director did not agree and said, “Director, I have won the movie queen award twice. Don’t you believe in my ability?”

“It’s not that I don’t believe in you.” The director was also in a difficult position and explained what he was worried about to Li Yue.

“You don’t have to worry about that. As long as you listen to me, I guarantee that the opposition production team will obediently do as I say.”

“This…” Due to Li Yue’s ability and influence, the director had no choice but to agree.

He originally did not want to engage in any PK with the cast and crew of ‘Ruyi’. He just wanted to obtain a higher viewership rating than that production team after the show was broadcast.

He didn’t expect Li Yue’s fans to make a public retweet of Jiang Yu, saying that they wanted to compete with her to see whose female lead was better and more outstanding. This was clearly making him and the director of “Ruyi” unable to step down from the stage.

However, after the news of “The Chu Family’s Empress” being broadcast while filming spread on the Internet, the cast and crew of “Ruyi” also released the news that they were broadcasting while filming.

It looked like they were really going to clash.

The netizens’ interest in gossiping was immediately aroused, and no one paid attention to Li Lu’s lousy trending topic anymore.

When Jiang Yu first heard the director say that the drama would be broadcast while filming, she was indeed shocked.

“Director, if we do this, we’ll be in a hurry,” Jiang Yu said. “In terms of post-production and editing, the results might not be satisfactory… Do we really have to do this?”
