Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Chapter 831

After half an hour, Huang Zichao and Tang Jing still didn't manage to finish the apple.

Huang Zichao started losing his patience, and annoyance flitted across his face.

“I'm not doing it anymore. I can't complete this task.” Huang Zichao stopped trying.

Tang Jing also stopped. “This is too hard!”

Ning Ran, too, was irritated to witness the scene since she wasn't in a good mood, to begin with.

She finally uttered her thoughts. “Even though it's a punishment, I don't think it should be this vile.”

She said it in front of the camera, so everyone heard her.

Although it was common for celebrities to protest against the decisions made by the production team, they were usually made by big shots since it was an honor for ordinary celebrities to appear in these influential shows. They wouldn't dare to offend the production team.

Moreover, it wasn't a live stream. If the celebrities offended the production team, the editors might portray them badly, causing them to get scolded by the viewers.

Ning Ran was no big shot, so everyone was shocked by her words.

“We told you about the plan of the show a long time ago, Ms. Ding. We did not reveal the specifics due to confidentiality concerns. If you have any issues, we can discuss them,” the director responded.

He had considered telling her to leave if she had any objections but decided against it because he had heard rumors about her having sponsors.

“If tomorrow's filming is still so vile and twisted, I'm not participating anymore,” Ning Ran said stiffly.

Usually, she would have been tolerant of such things, but she was in a foul mood that day.

Wang Xiaoou and Cheng Xiangyun were also at the variety show set, but they weren't in front of the cameras.

They naturally heard her words.

Feeling anxious, Cheng Xiangyun looked at Wang Xiaoou. “Ou, what do we do now?”

Wang Xiaoou was calm. “What do you mean? I think Ning Ran is right.”

Cheng Xiangyun's jaw almost dropped. What? Ning Ran is right? Everyone knows the rules of the entertainment industry. You sign the contract because you are willing to participate in the show. As long as it's not verbal abuse, you will do whatever the production team tells you to do. You don't have the right to object. Also, Ning Ran wasn't the one who was being punished. Why was she the first one to speak up about it? This is a blatant violation of the explicit and implicit rules of the entertainment industry, yet Wang Xiaoou says she's right?

The director was obviously displeased upon hearing Ning Ran's words. She just got the Best Newcomer Award. Who is she to criticize my reality show? My show is ranked first in the national TV ratings. Many A-list celebrities want to be on my show. How dare a rookie like her threaten to leave?

“Ms. Ning, if our show makes you uncomfortable, we can discuss this privately. Let's stop the filming here today,” the director responded with a contorted look.

The staff members had been running around the whole day, so when they heard they could stop filming, they were delighted.

“Ms. Ning, let's sit down and have a chat,” the director said, displeasure written all over his face.

“About?” Ning Ran asked in annoyance.

“I don't think our show has hurt you in any way. This is a reality show, so we're here to show celebrities' true colors. We can't let you guys sit there and just smile at the cameras, can we?” the director said harshly.

“But you can't make us do such revolting things! Two people munching on an apple is obviously a terrible wedding custom. Why is this on a reality show? We're not filming a drama here!”

Ning Ran was clearly enraged, as she had nowhere to vent her pent-up anger.

“If that's the case, you can consider leaving the show. But the contract—”

“What about the contract? Do you want to file a lawsuit?”

It wasn't Ning Ran who said those words. It was a man.

Jiang Zhe, Nan Chen's assistant, was here.

He couldn't get in at first. However, after making a call to the television station director and revealing his identity, Jiang Zhe could enter the place with ease.

Nanshi Corporation was one of the biggest clients of this television station, investing hundreds of millions in one year. As they were the sponsor of many shows, there was no way the television station director would dare to offend Nan Chen.

“Who are you? How did you get in here? Do you have a pass to come in?” the director asked.

“I'm Jiang Zhe, the special assistant of Nan Chen, the CEO of Nanshi Corporation,” Jiang Zhe replied calmly. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Once the director heard Jiang Zhe was from Nanshi Corporation, he was taken aback.

“What is someone from Nanshi Corporation doing here?” he asked stiffly.

“I came to visit Mrs. Nan. I heard that she was mistreated here and wanted to find out who the ungrateful thing who dared to mistreat her was.”

Wang Xiaoou had the urge to laugh. What's going on with everyone today? Why are they all so agitated? It's fine for Ning Ran to have an outburst, but even the most composed Assistant Jiang is acting in this manner. What's the special occasion today?

“How can you say that? Security! Bring this guy out!” The director was livid.

“Let's see who dares to chase me out! Have you thought about this properly? Why don't you call the television station director and check if he dares to kick me out?” Jiang Zhe sneered.

The director was shocked to hear him bring up the television station director.

Jiang Zhe took out his phone. He called the television station director and put it on speaker mode. “Your director is very impressive. He even wants to kick me out. What do we do about this?”

The television station director's voice rang out from the other end. “Let this b*stard answer the phone right now! How dare he treat you so rudely?”

“I'm an insignificant person. It's fine if he's rude to me, but he even dares to threaten Mrs. Nan. He wants to kick her out of the show and sue her for compensation. If our CEO hears of this, he will definitely not be happy about it. You do know of our CEO's temper...”

“I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! Let this b*stard answer the call. I'll get him to scram if he dares to be rude again!” the television station director shouted angrily.

As the director listened to the television station director's words, his face paled.

He had heard that Ning Ran had something to do with the CEO of Nanshi Corporation, but he hadn't investigated it. If she's really Mrs. Nan, then why is she filming movies and going on reality shows?

He had been in the entertainment industry for many years. Once young and gorgeous celebrities married into prominent families, they would usually leave the industry, as they had to attend to their husbands and children.

I have been too careless! She's really on another level!

The director immediately said, “This is a misunderstanding...”

“Misunderstanding? Apologize right now! If Mrs. Nan quits, you can quit too!” the television station director roared.

“Yes, I—”

“Assistant Jiang, I'm so sorry! After this matter is settled, I'll personally apologize to you and Mrs. Nan!” the television station director said sincerely.

Ning Ran watched this scene unfold. Isn't this bullying? If it is, why do I feel so pleased by such inappropriate behavior?
