Was she spoiled by her nanny?

Dou Xiao originally thought that the reason why Tong Huan wanted to deal with Jiang Xingrou was because she hated Jiang Xingrou for dominating her life and it was out of jealousy between the girls.

But now, when he learned more about Liu Yanran's experience, he realized how vicious Jiang Xingrou was. She destroyed an innocent, happy and talented young girl, and used Jiang Shihong's power to bankrupt the Liu family.

No wonder Jiang Xingrou misunderstood his identity at the police station that day and mocked and framed him so unscrupulously.

Is this a misunderstanding?

No, it was because Jiang Xingrou looked down on the poor in her bones. As the saying goes, noble people have high standards. In Jiang Xingrou's eyes, anyone whose status and position were not as high as hers were poor.

Even though Liu Jishan was once the director of a factory, she could ruin it just by her saying so.

After understanding this, Dou Xiao became more sincere in his desire to help Liu Yanran.

Although in Dou Xiao's opinion, Liu Yanran still showed signs of being sick in every way.

After the filming was completed, Dou Xiao took her to meet director Shen Bumen.

Of course, Liu Jishan and his wife, as guardians, also went to Shen's house.

Along the way, Zhao Guanfang was extremely excited, as if there was a pot of hot oil in his body, boiling non-stop.

Director Shen Bumen's name is almost a household name in China. He is one of the most powerful directors in the country and very talented. The films he directed have won various awards such as the Golden Bird Award, the Academy Awards, the Golden Bear Award, the Golden Bull Award, etc., and he has also produced several Best Actresses and Best Actor awards.

In Zhao Guanfang's world, such people can only be seen in the news, but they are not encountered in normal times.

Now, Mr. Dou actually took them to meet the great director Shen Bumen?

Oh my god, what kind of pie hit them!

Zhao Guanfang was so excited that she was about to explode. Besides being excited, she was more worried. Her daughter was a mental patient who had not yet recovered. Could she hide this from the sharp eyes of the great director Shen Bumen?

What if the great director Shen Bu Mian asks my daughter to audition?

Zhao Guanfang held her daughter's hand and kept reminding her, "Relax, my dear, don't be afraid, it's okay, don't be nervous..."

She kept on talking, but in fact her hands were shaking with nervousness.

On the other hand, Liu Yanran has returned to her hollow scarecrow state since getting on the car, refusing to perceive anything in the outside world and shrinking tightly into her own safe position, a shell that is invisible to the naked eye.

When Zhao Guanfang saw that her daughter seemed to be ill again, she was shocked and frightened and was in great torment.

However, an hour later, they arrived at the Shen residence, and their daughter miraculously regained some consciousness. She followed Tong Huan like a normal person, talking to her, and even had a slight smile on her face.

Amazing.

When Shen Bu Mian auditioned Liu Yanran, Liu Yanran performed exceptionally well, fully portraying the heroine's flexible and strong personality.

Zhao Guanfang and Liu Jishan were both stunned. Is this their daughter?

Zhao Guanfang felt that it must be the blessing of the Bodhisattva. She would go to Lingyin Temple to fulfill her vow tomorrow, and the Bodhisattva had appeared.

Director Shen Bumen asked Liu Yanran a few questions and his attitude was very friendly.

Zhao Guanfang answered all the questions quickly, especially the ones related to Jiang Xingrou. Zhao Guanfang was the one answering the questions the whole time, and Liu Yanran didn't show any abnormality at all.

Afterwards, Shen Bushian called Dou Xiao to the study.

Liu Jishan and his family stayed in the living room drinking tea.

Zhao Guanfang was very happy. Shen Bumen was a director who was bold in using newcomers. Many of his award-winning films used pure white paper and amateurs who had never even attended a film school. So Zhao Guanfang felt that her daughter had already won the role.

However, what Zhao Guanfang didn't know was that Shen Bumen in the study had already put away his kind smile, and replaced it with a serious face like a black crow.

He said in a deep voice, very professional yet distant, "The girl is very talented, but I can't direct this film. Mr. Dou, please find another director."

The refusal was polite and straightforward.

Dou Xiao was surprised: "What? Why can't you direct it? Hasn't the schedule been arranged for you?"

Shen Bumen sat by the window, puffing out smoke, half of his face sunk into the night, the other half showing the experience left over from a middle-aged man who had gone through many hardships.

"It's not a schedule issue. I just finished filming 'Green Mango' and I'm exhausted. I need to have a good rest." Shen Bumen said a little tiredly.

"Fuck!"

Dou Xiao snatched the cigar from Shen Bumen's hand, threw it to the ground, and stomped on it hard twice.

"Just finished filming 'Green Mango'? Just now? Don't think I don't know. 'Green Mango' was finished half a year ago!"

It just hasn’t been released yet.

"You take a break for half a year after making a movie. Even the donkey in the production team and the Leshan Giant Buddha are not as lazy as you! Can a bricklayer on a construction site say to the contractor, 'I'm tired, take a break for half a year'? I think you just have nothing to do!"

When Dou Xiao gets angry, he's like a machine gun. This also shows that Dou Xiao and Shen Bushian have a good relationship.

Back then, Shen Bumen was a newly graduated college student who wanted to direct his first art film. He went to the gate of Shengshi Group to solicit investment, but he didn't even get to see President Dou.

It was Dou Xiao who smashed his piggy bank and took out his New Year's money to support him.

At that time, Shen Bumen, who was 23 years old at the time, held the New Year's money of the seven-year-old child in his hands, and was very moved. ... The children of rich people have so much New Year's money! Hundreds of thousands, which is actually more than the budget of his movie!

He is too superficial.

Although Shen Bushian did not accept Dou Xiao's sponsorship later, he remembered this enthusiastic child.

Shen Bu Mian pinched his brows helplessly, revealing a trace of fatigue, "I'm telling the truth, art is something that requires a lot of brain cells, and sometimes it also requires inspiration. If you don't have inspiration, you can't take a good picture..."

"Inspiration you ass!"

Before Shen Bumen could finish his words, Dou Xiao laughed at him.

“Inspiration is your excuse, inspiration is your shield, inspiration is your master key to escape!”

Shen Bumen: “…”

...Why be so straightforward...

Dou Xiao said, "Don't you just think this movie is a commercial film and you don't want to make it? After you finish filming this one, I will invest another 2 million yuan to help you make the movie you want to make."

Dou Xiao also knew that Shen Bu Mian was making excuses, so he just threw money at him. Shen Bu Mian was very ambitious in art, and 2 million was enough for him to make a high-end art film.

Shen Bushian's pupils shrank slightly, and it was obvious that he was a little moved, but he still refused.

"It's not about money."

"I'll give you 4 million!"

Shen Bumen: “…”

The director frowned deeply, his face showing a struggle, but in the end he shook his head, "Mr. Dou, it's really not a matter of money."

Dou Xiao: "8 million."

Shen Bumen: “…”

The director couldn't stand it anymore and slapped the back of the sofa, "That's enough, Dou Shao, I told you not to insult me ​​with money, but you insisted on insulting me with money! It's been like this since we first met..."

Although Dou Xiao was only seven years old at that time, it greatly "insulted" him, a young man with great ambitions but extremely poor.

Dou Xiao laughed, "Isn't it because I'm so poor that I only have money left? Unlike you, you have talent and ambition, and your spiritual wealth is unmatched."

Shen Bu Mian was in pain and resentful, "Don't give me that! Don't you just want to deal with Jiang Xingrou? You have planned it all along, ready to wait for me to announce that Liu Yanran is the heroine of my next play, stir up the heat, and then you will expose the affair between Liu Yanran and Jiang Xingrou, so that Jiang Xingrou's reputation will be ruined. Damn it, you are using me as a gun!"

Dou Xiao was stunned, "Oh, so you knew."

Shen Bumian looked hateful, "I'm not a fool."

In fact, he really wanted to be stupid for once, after all, it was 8 million.

At this time, a cold voice came from the corner, "Are you so afraid of the Jiang family?"
