Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, this kind of blatant showing off was just a normal trip for the women of the Ding Family. They didn't mean to show off at all.
It was just that Ding Ning had too many wives, so it seemed to be a bit too big.
Fortunately, the women kept their promises. After leaving Shengshi Huating Courtyard, they dispersed and ran in all directions in twos and threes. They rushed to Song Jiang Film and Television Base from different paths.
Dozens of luxury cars were naturally eye-catching, but once they were scattered, they were not so conspicuous in the international metropolis of Ninghai, which was full of luxury cars. This made Song Ziyi, who had been quietly watching the rear, secretly feel relieved.
She was really afraid that Ding Ning would show off willfully. It was not so easy to survive in the entertainment circle, and it was even more difficult to be a public figure. Sometimes, a thoughtless remark could be used by others to make a big fuss, distort the truth, and lead the public who didn't know the truth to criticize him.
If Ding Ning dared to appear in such a high-profile way for the first time, Song Ziyi could guarantee that he would occupy the headlines of the day, but it would not be good words.
After all, it was Director Pan's first time to shoot a TV series. Many people were paying close attention to it. Even many big names in the film and television circle tried to use their connections to get into the crew to play a role, even if it was a small role. There was even a star who became famous because of a scandal with a first-rate female star. He asked someone to tell him that as long as he could play the leading male role in the TV series, he could do it for free.
But what kind of person was Director Pan? He didn't care how big the star was or how famous the star was. He refused it without hesitation.
It had to be said that sometimes Director Pan's EQ was really worrying. It was fine to refuse, but he just mercilessly slapped the star's face.
He said that his acting skills were not even good enough to carry Ding Ning's shoes. Not to mention acting for free, even if he had to ask for money from the crew, he would not use this kind of actor who had no acting skills and only became famous because of the scandal.
Notice that he said entertainer, not actor.
Artists were usually newcomers who had just debuted and had no outstanding works. There were rules in the film and television industry. They had to have at least one or more works with good reputation. Even if they only played a supporting role, as long as they had an outstanding performance and could be recognized by most professionals and the public, they could be called actors. They were also often referred to as stars.
Take Song Ziyi for example. Even though she was a Heavenly Queen, she did not dare to call herself an actress in the film and television industry. She had always considered herself an artist.
After all, her Heavenly Queen status was obtained in the music industry, not in the film and television industry. In the music industry, she was a well-deserved big shot, but in the film and television industry, she was just a newcomer who had not even crossed the threshold. How could she dare to call herself an actress?
To put it bluntly, the difference between an artist and an actor in the film and television industry was like the difference between a singer and a singer in the music industry. It sounded similar, but in terms of status, they were not at the same level.
That Red Star himself had a few works, but he was not well-known. That was why he became famous through the hype of scandals. He was still capable, and the people in the industry had already tacitly acknowledged his identity as an actor. But now, Director Pan still referred to him as an artist. It was simply a slap in the face.
Although that Red Star did not dare to challenge Director Pan, he vented his anger on Ding Ning. He had already said that if there was a chance, he would definitely teach Ding Ning a lesson. How could a mere newcomer have any acting skills? Didn't he still get the opportunity to play the male lead because of his connections?
These words resonated with the hearts of many actors who were rejected by Director Pan. They were all professional actors, and their acting skills were not much better than that Red Star's.
But Director Pan said that Red Star's acting skills were not even worthy of carrying Ding Ning's shoes. Didn't that mean that they were only worthy of carrying Ding Ning's shoes at most?
Director Pan was the founder of the Best Actor Award, and his temper had always been eccentric. Even if he rejected them, they did not dare to say much in front of him. At most, they would grumble behind his back.
But as for Ding Ning, they were very unconvinced. They felt that what Red Star said made sense, and there must be something fishy about it. Otherwise, how could a newcomer be the male lead? Moreover, he was the male lead in a television series directed by Director Pan.
It should be known that Director Pan would rather have nothing than a shoddy product. Even if it was a television series, he would always strive for perfection and strictly control the quality. To be able to act as the male lead in a top-notch television series, the value of an ordinary television series could not be compared to.
This made them jealous and resentful. They vented their anger at being rejected by Director Pan on Ding Ning. Recently, they had been expressing on Weibo and other social media that they were looking forward to Director Pan's new work, "The Legend of the Sword and Fairy: The Heroic Couple". They believed that its ratings would definitely reach new highs.
As someone in the industry, how could Song Ziyi not have received news of all this? She had originally planned to tell Ding Ning, but when she thought of what happened on New Year's Eve, she was filled with anger and did not have the mood to remind him.
This bastard did not want to tell her the news of Ning Ding, but he even knocked her out. She did not know whether this guy had taken the opportunity to take advantage of her. "Humph, it's good to let you suffer some losses and teach you a lesson."
This was not Chen Wanqing's dereliction of duty. After all, she was just a newcomer. Previously, she was in charge of singers like Ye Huan and Xiangyun who had just made their debut. She had been dealing with people in the music industry and had very few contacts in the film and television industry. She knew nothing about these rumors. Otherwise, she would have told Ding Ning as soon as possible.
In fact, Yang Mi had already received the news. She even discussed with Diba whether she should remind Ding Ning to be careful. But Diba did not take it seriously at all. He said, "Do you think he will care about this with his strength?" She was speechless.
The changes brought by the Body-strengthening Pill made Yang Mi realize that Ding Ning was not an ordinary person. Thinking of his Heavenly King Stage acting skills and all the miracles he had shown, she could not help shaking her head and chuckling speechlessly. She felt that she was worrying too much. There was no need to remind him. Instead, she should remind those guys with bad intentions.
As for Diba, she did not take this little thing seriously at all. Others might not know what kind of person her boyfriend was, but how could she not know? He was an immortal-like existence. How could he put a bullsh * t Red Star in his eyes?
Therefore, for various reasons, basically everyone in the film and television industry knew about this matter, but Ding Ning was always kept in the dark. He did not know that Director Pan had drawn a lot of hatred for him and was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Of course, even if he knew, he would not take it seriously. Any conspiracy or trick was useless in the face of absolute strength. It was simply vulnerable.
It was so in martial arts, and it was the same in acting. He had absolute confidence in this.
The "Passat" slowly drove into the No. 8 Film and Television City of the Song Jiang Film and Television Base, which was dedicated to classical xianxia dramas. It stopped next to Song Ziyi's nanny car, and Ding Ning took the lead to get off.
The reporters gathered in front of the Studio City immediately surrounded him. Just as they were about to take photos, they suddenly realized that they didn't know this person at all. They couldn't help but stop taking photos in confusion. They couldn't figure out his identity.
After all, in their eyes, Ding Ning was a complete stranger. Moreover, Director Pan's crew had a strong sense of confidentiality, so they never accepted interviews when they started shooting. Unlike other crew members, who said that they would not accept interviews, they would occasionally reveal some spoilers to pave the way for later publicity.
However, this young man seemed to have an extraordinary bearing, and from the way he was dressed, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
He might be a representative sent by an investor.
A middle-aged reporter with a mustache hesitated for a moment. Unwilling to miss this opportunity, he handed the microphone to Ding Ning and asked, "Sir, are you a member of the crew of The Legend of the Sword and Fairy Couple?"
"Do I look like one?"
Ding Ning would not admit it stupidly. He had witnessed with his own eyes that Song Ziyi was besieged and intercepted. It was not easy for him to enter the Film and Television City under the escort of the security guards of the Film and Television Base. He did not want to suffer like that, but it was not good for him to lie. After all, he would not be able to hide it in the future. So, an idea came to him and he asked in an enigmatic way.
The reporter with a mustache was a little confused. Did I look like one? How could he say that? The crew members were all performance artists. Even a person in charge of props could pretend to be a big star. Even if they were professional entertainment reporters, they did not have the eyesight to do that.
A thin and tall reporter next to him was very clever. He immediately interrupted and asked, "Sir, what are you doing here? This is the filming site of The Legend of the Sword and Fairy Couple. "
"I'm here to chase stars. I'm a die-hard fan of the Heavenly Queen in Purple Dress. When I saw her nanny van just now, I put down a business worth hundreds of millions and followed her here to ask for an autograph. Where is she? Have you seen my Purple Dress? "
Ding Ning's eyes were shining. He really looked like a fanatic fan and said confidently.
"Hey! I thought you were a member of the crew. I didn't expect you to be a fan of the Heavenly Queen. What a waste of my expression. "
The reporter with a mustache rolled his eyes and turned to leave.
"Bro, you really dare to brag. You drive a Passat and talk about a business worth hundreds of millions. You're really good at bragging."
"I say, bro, the Heavenly Queen isn't someone a little rich second generation like you can match up to. Reporters like us can't even get into the film crew, let alone a celebrity follower like you. Hurry up and go back. Maybe you can still save your billion-dollar business."
"Yeah, compared with chasing stars, I think your business worth hundreds of millions is more important. Hurry up and go back. Maybe you can make up for it. The Heavenly Queen's autograph is not worth 100 million."
…
A group of reporters suddenly lost interest in him. Some of them thought it was funny and made fun of his business worth hundreds of millions.
"Don't, bro. Don't go. We have nothing to do. Let's talk for another 50 cents. At least, you have to tell me where my Purple Dress is."
Ding Ning shouted hypocritically.
The reporter with a mustache smirked, pointed to the gate of the Film and Television City, and said jokingly, "Your Purple Dress is behind that gate. You can see her when you go in."
A group of reporters held back their laughter. There were four burly security guards standing at the gate of the Film and Television City, who refused to let any member of the crew enter. If this guy dared to go in, he would be severely beaten.
"Thank you, bro. You are so loyal. I'm going to find my Purple Dress. When I get her autograph, I'll treat you to a drink."
Ding Ning looked like a hothead. As if he didn't see those security guards, he thanked the mustache man again and again and walked to the Film and Television City in high spirits.
"Hey, this guy is really funny. Does he really think those security guards are decorations? They are all security guards specially hired by Tiangong Entertainment from Qingyun Security. They are very powerful."
"Young people nowadays really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth because they have a little money. They think they are so great because they drive a Passat."
"Wait and see. The security guards of Qingyun Security are not easy to mess with. They are all martial artists and are very powerful."
