Chapter 296 Bonus Chapter - A Charlatan?
Book lovers are hotly debating: What exactly happened? Join the discussion!
The assistant director frowned.
Why is this person so arrogant despite being poor?
They live in a dilapidated temple, yet they put on quite a show.
He was even more annoyed.
That's over a million! It seems even the most clueless person has the luck to get rich!
The assistant director suppressed his anger and forced a smile:
"Aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"
Jiang Chaosheng nodded: "Mm."
The assistant director was taken aback.
What does "嗯" mean?
He immediately understood—he saw Jiang Chaosheng close the door.
The assistant director quickly reached out to steady himself against the doorframe, a fawning smile plastered on his face:
"No, no, no, let me finish speaking."
Yang Mi also spoke up:
"Mr. Jiang, wait a moment, it's too cold outside. Can I come in and warm up for a while?"
She hadn't originally intended to speak.
She was just bored and wanted to come and see. Although she was curious about Jiang Chaosheng, there was nothing to say about him.
You can't exactly ask, "You live in a temple, have you ever seen a ghost?"
But seeing Jiang Chaosheng's eccentric personality and the assistant director's rebuff, she had no choice but to speak up.
The success or failure of this drama is closely related to her future career.
Jiang Chaosheng glanced at Yang Mi, remained silent for a moment, and then opened the door.
"Please come in."
Normally, he wouldn't pay attention to others complaining about being cold.
But this is a mountain god temple, the place where my mother used to live.
As long as he stays here, his kindness will be unprecedented and unparalleled.
The assistant director gave Yang Mi a grateful look and followed them inside.
Yang Mi looked around curiously.
It's a dilapidated temple, but it's been decorated to look quite cozy.
The assistant director, fearing he would be kicked out again, quickly got straight to the point:
"The film crew wanted to shoot here, but the village chief previously refused."
Mr. Jiang, if you let us film, there will be a rental fee of one million.
Also, our show is very popular, so your show can be featured on TV.
"From now on, fans will come to visit, and we'll be rolling in tickets!"
He continued talking non-stop, unaware that Jiang Chaosheng's expression was growing increasingly grim.
The unprecedented goodwill vanished in less than ten seconds after the man in the vest entered.
Yang Mi noticed the coldness in Jiang Chaosheng's eyes and quickly stopped the assistant director, apologizing:
"Is it because this is where your aunt lived that you don't want to be disturbed?"
If that's the case, we've been incredibly rude.
Jiang Chaosheng's expression softened somewhat.
He felt a bit more favorably toward Yang Mi and nodded, saying:
"fine."
The assistant director was stunned:
"Mr. Jiang, that's a million!"
Jiang Chaosheng uttered a single word:
"roll."
The assistant director's face turned pale and then red. He wanted to say, "You're a little ungrateful," but he swallowed the words back down.
The director said we shouldn't have any conflicts with the villagers.
Mr. Jiang holds such an important position in the village chief's eyes that he cannot be offended.
He turned and left, muttering curses as he went outside:
"No wonder he's so poor he lives in a temple; he can't even hold onto money when it comes his way."
Yang Mi bowed slightly to Jiang Chaosheng:
I'm so sorry.
She straightened up and tossed her hair aside:
"I was pretty bored tonight, so I thought I'd come along with the assistant director to wander around. Sorry to bother you."
The assistant rolled her eyes at Jiang Chaosheng.
They really don't know how to cherish women at all.
Even if you don't know Yang Mi, you should be able to tell that she's a super beautiful woman!
She didn't want to talk to Jiang Chaosheng, and turned to Yang Mi, saying:
"Honey, shall we go back to the hotel?"
Yang Mi glanced at her watch:
"It's still early, and I can't sleep. How about we go check out the small town of Rhine?"
The Rhine Town is a small set built by the production team; it's not very big and is more like a large-scale murder mystery game venue.
To film the second season of "Fox Spirit Antique Shop", some new sets were added to the small town.
The assistant said:
"it is good."
Just as the two were about to leave, Jiang Chaosheng's voice rang out from behind them:
"Something's not right there. I advise you not to go. You'd better tell your director that it's best to demolish that area if possible."
This was a well-intentioned reminder.
He doesn't trust anyone but his own feelings.
That intuition just now told him—
There must be something bad hiding in this small town on the Rhine.
The assistant chuckled in exasperation and turned to look at him:
"You mean to say that it's not clean there, right?"
Do you really think that living in a dilapidated temple makes you a Taoist priest?
We filmed there two years ago. Sometimes when the workload was heavy, we would just sleep there without any problem.
Don't spout nonsense here, acting like you're so capable.
Yang Mi tugged at her assistant's hand, signaling her not to be rude.
After all, this person holds a high position in the village chief's heart, and filming here cannot offend the villagers.
She didn't believe Jiang Chaosheng's words either, but she still gave him a perfunctory reply:
"Okay, I understand."
Yang Mi felt a little disappointed in Jiang Chaosheng.
If the Rhine town had just been built but not yet turned on, she might have had some doubts.
But they've been filming there for a year, and in that year plus the six months after filming ended, nothing has happened.
It's a popular tourist destination, so there's no way it could be haunted.
Jiang Chaosheng is now saying that the place is unclean... either he's pretending to be a master or his cultivation is insufficient.
Jiang Chaosheng could tell they didn't believe him, so he said no more.
In this place, his kindness was unprecedented and unparalleled.
But this is all the unprecedented goodwill we have shown.
He watched them leave and then closed the door again.
He watched them leave and then closed the door again.
My headache is back.
There really was something between his brows that he wanted to squeeze out.
He reached out and touched it—
It resembles the shape of an eye.
"What exactly is going on?"
He endured the excruciating pain and turned to look in the direction of the Rhine town.
Or... should I go and see what's there? Is this the answer I'm looking for?
...
On the minivan.
The assistant director was driving, and Yang Mi and her assistant were sitting in the back.
They wanted to visit the small town of Rhine.
Although it was dark, there were still many staff members there, so there was nothing to fear.
The assistant director was about to go check.
As the head of the production team, he had to ensure that all props and sets were in good working order and that filming progressed smoothly.
So we went that way anyway.
. . . . .
Upon arriving in the small town of Rhine, the three of them got off the car.
Many workers were putting on the final coat of paint, while others were checking the circuits and making simple repairs.
The assistant director glanced at the assistant:
That person is completely insane.
"Look around here, so many people, isn't it dirty?"
On the way, his assistant told him what Jiang Chaosheng had said, and he complained about it the whole way.
He pointed to a building in front of him:
"That's a hospital that was just set up; I'll have to go in and take a look in a bit."
Yang Mi looked at the building, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
It's incredibly realistic; every detail is spot-on. No wonder it's Director Zhang's film set.
Although it only has three floors, with good shooting techniques and post-production effects, it is entirely possible to capture the grandeur of a large hospital.
"Then let's go too," Yang Mi said.
The assistant director led the two into the hospital.
As soon as I entered, I heard hurried footsteps and heart-wrenching screams behind me—
"Doctor! Doctor!"
Yang Mi was startled and turned around to look.
A man who looked like a tourist, carrying a pale-faced child, stumbled in:
"Doctor! Please take a look at my child, what's wrong?"
Yang Mi understood instantly—
This is because tourists have mistaken this place for the village hospital.
She quickly ran over, knelt down to check the child, and then turned to her assistant and called out:
"Quickly, get the child to the town hospital!"
The tourists were extremely anxious:
"Is the village hospital no good? Let's find a doctor to take a look!"
My son might have appendicitis! He's always had it, but this time it seems acute, and he'll need surgery.
Appendicitis surgery is a minor procedure. Although this hospital is not large, it should be able to perform the surgery.
Yang Mi was about to explain that this wasn't a real hospital—
The sound of hurried footsteps rang out.
Two nurses, carrying a stretcher and led by a doctor, quickly ran over.
The doctor examined the child and spoke with a grave tone:
"Acute appendicitis. Preparing the operating room!"
Two nurses immediately lifted the child onto a stretcher and followed the doctor quickly up to the second floor.
The man thanked him repeatedly and ran after him.
Yang Mi, assistant, deputy director —
The three people stood straight in place, their six eyes fixed on that direction.
His eyes were filled with fear.
They were so terrified they couldn't move, and even forgot to think.
Because... the hospital is just a set, a large prop.
Where did this doctor come from?
