Soon, 3 months passed and Miss Qiao returned from her studies. Tangning immediately sent someone to the airport to welcome her.
At the same time, Tangning's new post-production team, Star Shine, was completed and they were currently working together. Of course, there was still a lot of time for them to get used to it.
By this time, 'The Ant Queen 2' was ready and Tangning had already selected the rest of the actors. All that was left was to arrange their schedules and auditions.
Not long after, Hai Rui officially announced the cast of 'The Ant Queen 2'. As usual, Tangning would be producing and Qiao Man would be directing. There would also be international martial arts superstar Old Long, new actress Fei Er, the popular young actor Luo Sheng and, of course, the main antagonist, Mo Ting!
As soon as the cast was announced, the public immediately reacted. There was a lot to look forward to.
The addition of Old Long was already a pleasant surprise, but this time, Mo Ting was going to take part as well. In fact, he was going to play the main antagonist!
At the same time, the poster for 'The Ant Queen 2' clearly stated the theme: it was time to test the teacher-student relationship.
In other words, the main plot of 'The Ant Queen 2' was to focus on the teacher-student relationship!
Fans left comments excitedly urging Tangning to start filming.
"I like Tangning's work because she doesn't follow the path of heroes and beauties. Instead, she gives up on romance. Instead, she explores relationships on a deeper level and makes me feel comfortable."
"Last time, it was a father and daughter. This time, it's a teacher-student relationship. Just thinking about it, it's a lot to watch. I wonder how this international superstar will be able to do against a big monster!"
"Am I the only one that thinks President Mo's antagonist will be interesting? In 'The Ant Queen 1', his relationship was already so smooth. I can't wait to see him explode! "
"Anticipation + 1 …"
"Anticipation + 2 …"
"They've only announced that they've finished filming now. When are they going to start? How torturous!"
"Let's go look through all of President Mo and Mo Ting's works right now. We should be able to last a little longer."
"I think Tangning's involvement in the film and television industry has brought new life to the industry. I think the entire film industry should thank her!"
She simply did what she wanted to do. She wanted to fulfill Qiao Sen's wish; she wanted to stand side by side with Mo Ting at the top of the entertainment industry. Had she finally achieved it?
Afterwards, someone researched Qiao Man's background and found out that she was actually Qiao Sen's daughter. On top of that, she was a famous photographer.
In order to fulfill her father's last wish, she was prepared to dedicate the rest of her life to sci-fi. She originally thought that the public would have some objections towards a newcomer director like her, but surprisingly, everyone was very tolerant of her. This was because, as a director that wanted to be like her father, she was willing to give it her all...
As a result, news about 'The Ant Queen 2' was everywhere. As Nangong Quan sat in his office, he couldn't help but feel that the Mo Couple were indeed strong and worthy opponents.
"President, should we start the second round of promotions for Parasite?"
Nangong Quan shook his head, indicating that the timing wasn't right, "There's no need. Focus on the production of 'Parasite'. The final result is the best promotion."
"I understand. This is the perfect time for a sci-fi film. Although I don't want to admit it, Tangning has made a huge contribution," Nangong Quan's assistant said. "Otherwise, let's not talk about now, even 20 years from now, Beijing may not even produce a decent sci-fi film."
"What do you think of Bai Junye?"
"Bai Junye is indeed talented. The production didn't find the wrong person."
"That's good," Nangong Quan nodded. He had high hopes for 'Parasite'.
Even if it couldn't compete with Hai Rui's' The Ant Queen 2 ', as long as it was a good film, it wouldn't be buried.
Afterwards, Nangong Quan packed his things and drove over to Qiu Jin's home. But, Qiu Jin's subordinate told him, "Uncle Qiu passed away 10 days ago …"
"Why didn't anyone tell me?" Nangong Quan yelled. "Why didn't anyone report such a big thing?"
"Because Uncle Qiu passed away very suddenly. He hung himself, but the night before he passed away, he told me that he wanted to go overseas. Who would've guessed?" Qiu Jin's subordinate replied. "I even saw Uncle Qiu's packed luggage …"
"Then, why didn't you call the police?"
"The police came over and confirmed that he suffocated to death. He also left a suicide note, so they didn't investigate further. But, I still feel like something's not right."
Why would someone that was about to go overseas suddenly choose to die? Plus, he only left a single sentence in his suicide note …
Nangong Quan was also in disbelief, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.
Just like that, Qiu Jin mysteriously disappeared. Yet, not a single person told him about this. He originally thought Qiu Jin was in a bad mood and needed to recover, so he didn't ask about it. But, who would have thought …
"Did you check Uncle Qiu's room in detail? Did you find anything suspicious?! "
"Nothing, I checked it." After speaking, the bald subordinate pulled out a phone from his drawer and handed it to Nangong Quan. "This is Uncle Qiu's phone. I checked his call history. On the night he tried to commit suicide, Uncle Qiu spoke to an unknown number for half an hour."
"What's his identity?"
"I called him and asked. He bought car insurance …"
Nangong Quan received the phone without saying a word. He suddenly wondered if there was someone else behind Uncle Qiu's back.
But, before he had time to investigate further, he received a phone call from Su Youran's mother, "Mr. Nangong, can you please take Youran to the registration office as soon as possible?"
"Auntie, what's wrong?"
"Her father's business failed and he's targeting her."
Nangong Quan's heart sank, but this wasn't what he was concerned about, "Your voice is very weak …"
"I'm fine … I'm fine."
This definitely didn't sound like she was fine. After hanging up the phone, Nangong Quan directly left Qiu Jin's home and drove over to Su Youran's classroom. Afterwards, he directly dragged her out.
"Mr. Nangong, are you sure? Did you drag the wrong person? "
"Your mother might be in danger. You should go home first," Nangong Quan said as he pulled out his phone and showed Su Youran a phone number.
After confirming that it was her mother's phone number, Su Youran turned to leave. But, Nangong Quan held her back, "I'll take you there. It'll be faster."
Although Su Youran was full of questions, she didn't have a better option. So, she boarded Nangong Quan's car.
It was strange. How did a stranger find out that her mother was in danger …
