"'Concubine Ning' has already been scheduled to air on the 15th of the Lunar New Year so that it can air before 'The Forensic Concubine'. If it was also a period drama, there would definitely be more advantages if it was aired first. Firstly, the audience liked to be prejudiced. Secondly, if it was aired consecutively, then the audience would feel tired. Plus, 'Concubine Ning' has secured the best broadcasting platform and is being broadcast at prime time. This is definitely not good for us. "
During a meeting at Hai Rui, the higher-ups in charge of operations expressed their opinions.
"Bai Yu has always had a good relationship with the public. Her image has always been well taken care of. Although we didn't get along well in the past, 'Concubine Ning' has always had a good grasp of the bigger picture."
"Most importantly, our male lead has yet to be revealed. So, after the first round of promotions, 'Concubine Ning' has doubled our expectations."
"President Mo, 'The Royal Concubine' hasn't finished filming yet, what should we do? Could it be that he was going to fight for the summer holidays? If that's the case, then... we will miss out on this year's Fei Tian Awards. "
"Who was the one that said we had to air later than 'Concubine Ning'?" "'Concubine Ning' has indeed grabbed the best primetime slot, but that's only limited to Mondays to Fridays. What about Saturdays and Sundays?"
"The weekend is the world of variety shows …"
"What happens after the variety show ends?"
"President Mo, are you saying that we should adopt a weekly format?"
No matter how much publicity 'Concubine Ning' tried, Mo Ting still had a lot of explosive information in his hands. So, once this information was revealed, 'Concubine Ning' would no longer have anything to do with it. Most importantly, he couldn't reveal Bai Linlin's affair with Bai Yu's husband to the public. So, he had to deal with it in private. After all, Bai Yu was the victim. If he revealed it to the public, he would be playing the sympathy card for her.
At this crucial moment, something big happened on the set of 'The Forensic Concubine'.
Due to the weather and the negligence of the production team, Director Chen Feng was injured during filming. In the end, he was sent to the hospital.
Soon, the news spread, and all kinds of speculations began to spread.
"I heard that Director Chen Feng fell off a cliff and died …"
"I heard that the filming location for 'The Forensic Concubine' is quite creepy. A few people have already died there."
"Aiyo, what bad luck …"
"I heard that too. Apparently, when Director Chen Feng died, his head was separated from his body. It's too scary."
No matter what was going on, there was one thing that was for sure. The filming of 'The Forensic Concubine' had to stop. This would delay the progress of the show even more.
Actually, for a matter like this, all Hai Rui had to do was step out and clarify the truth. But, the most annoying thing was, Director Chen Feng's leg was temporarily incapacitated.
…
"Even the heavens are helping me." After seeing the news, Bai Yu sneered, "Let's see how long they can last with such a lousy production."
"Actually, Sister Yu, you don't have to worry at all. The viewership ratings will prove who the real queen is." Her assistant flattered her.
"In that case, you should also keep a close eye on the news from next door. 'Concubine Ning' is about to air, I don't want any more accidents to happen," Bai Yu said coldly.
As she knew about the story between Huangfu Shuo and Bai Yu in the past, she told Huangfu Shuo about how Bai Yu had been betrayed by her own sister and husband to help him vent his anger. But, in reality, after Huangfu Shuo heard about it, he did not feel the same pain as before. It wasn't because he no longer hated Bai Yu, it was because he finally understood one thing: no matter how Bai Yu had treated him in the past, there was no need for him to be hysterical. Because, whatever Bai Yu owed him, she would always find a way to return it.
This time, because of the incident on set of 'The Forensic Concubine', Mo Ting gave everyone a day off. So, Huangfu Shuo ran into Bai Yu at the hotel. As he looked at her husband standing beside her, he suddenly felt extremely ironic.
This wasn't a coincidence. He had purposely asked around for Bai Yu's whereabouts before he appeared at the hotel.
As always, Bai Yu felt like she had the entire world in her hands. So, as soon as she saw Huangfu Shuo, she blocked his way and refused to let him leave, "I haven't introduced my husband to you yet, have I?"
"I don't think it's necessary. I've been getting to know him better lately," Huangfu Shuo said with a hidden meaning.
"Since you're familiar with him, then you should know that I'm still not someone to be trifled with," Bai Yu warned beside Huangfu Shuo's ear.
On one hand, Huangfu Shuo felt that Bai Yu was pitiful, but on the other hand, he also felt that she was not worthy of his sympathy.
"By the way, I heard that your production has stopped working again? How pitiful. Previously, you couldn't find a male lead and now, the director has been injured. Your production sure is plagued with misfortune! "Bai Yu said proudly. For some reason, under the flashing neon lights, Bai Yu's face felt extremely unfamiliar. "Did you know that 'Concubine Ning' will be airing next year? I hope you can contribute a bit to the viewership ratings... "
"As for when your drama will be released to the public, all I can say is, I wish you all the best of luck!"
Huangfu Shuo crossed his arms and smiled at Bai Yu's aggressiveness, "Aren't you tired of having to change your expression every day?"
"Who told me to be an actress?"
"Bai Yu, I came here today to watch you make a fool of yourself. Sooner or later, you will find out that you are a complete idiot." After speaking, Huangfu Shuo pressed the elevator button and left.
Bai Yu looked in the direction that Huangfu Shuo had left and laughed in disdain, "You've already gotten to this point, why are you still putting on airs?"
Sorry, it wasn't that Huangfu Shuo wanted to put on airs, but the production crew of 'The Forensic Concubine' hadn't said anything yet.
Although the content hadn't finished filming, it didn't affect the screening of the drama. After all, it was a weekly drama that could be split into two parts. So, why was it plagued with misfortune?
Huangfu Shuo felt that if he didn't tear apart someone like Bai Yu's hypocrisy, he would be letting down society. His conscience would be hurting. But, the good show would have to wait until 'The Forensic Concubine' was officially announced.
As for the affair between her husband and sister, she had to be the one to expose it on her own.
Bai Yu felt that Huangfu Shuo was the same as Tangning. He had become extremely pretentious and annoying. So, in the following promotional events, Bai Yu made sure to express her sympathy towards the production crew of 'The Forensic Concubine'. It was like she deliberately mentioned another production crew's name to give them a little more popularity.
Afterwards, Hai Rui announced Director Chen Feng's current situation and clarified all the rumors that had been circulating.
Not only that, Hai Rui seemed to be preparing to make a big move.
They were ready to announce the name of the male lead!
"At a time like this, no matter who it is, it's already useless. Didn't they stop filming? "
"That's right, so much time has passed. My expectations have already dropped to zero."
"I'm already prepared to watch 'Concubine Ning'. 'The Forensic Concubine' is best left to the novel..."
