The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 1011 - 1010. What kind of expression is that on your faces?
It’s hard for people with different worldviews to come together, not to mention that their views on certain matters are completely opposite.
Xiao Li, who knew some past events, shivered unexpectedly.
"Feng Yan’s comeback this time is truly a king’s return. It’s no wonder that Sister Luo is in a bad mood."
Shen Yan carefully asked, "So, did Feng Yan’s decision back then lead her to a path of stardom?"
"You’re quite smart. Yes, ever since Sister Luo’s opposition failed, she resigned from Vast Entertainment and did not work as a manager again for several years."
And Tang Shu was the first artist Luo Lin signed upon her comeback. Her role changed from a mere agent to the company’s president; the work of an agent became a part-time job.
"Oh my God~"
Shen Yan let out a wail, internally picturing a grand drama between the two women.
"Hey, wait, then... is the unwarranted attack on our boss this time related to her? The timing seems just too coincidental."
Just a few days ago, Tang Shu was admired as the descendant of a hero, but winning two awards pushed her into the spotlight, with netizens openly suggesting that there was an inside story, which is anything but normal.
Was Feng Yan’s return too timely?
"Brother Li, how old is this Feng Yan now? Is she similar to our boss in type?"
"...She really is!"
The saying "one word to wake a dreamer" left Xiao Li stunned.
"Feng Yan is 34 this year. A female actress at this age is no longer young. Her facial features are very defined, which is her ticket to the big screen. Her appearance is highly adaptable, and importantly, she takes the high-cold route!"
In this regard, she is somewhat similar to Tang Shu.
"No, I need to check... hey, no, shouldn’t we first deal with the negative rumors online?"
"If Sister Luo can’t produce evidence, I have no way. Should we just ban the numbers?"
"The boss surely has a way!"
The two exchanged a glance, opened Tang Shu’s personal WeChat, and sent a message, but waited a long time without getting a reply.
By then, Tang Shu had already said goodbye to all electronic devices that could connect with the outside world.
At the Imperial Capital Suburb Base, once again donning a white coat, she was immersed in her research, spending her days either studying the impacts of the Gu Insect and the batch of seized drugs merging or treating those rescued from the passage with Master Qin.
"This won’t do; they can’t calm down at all. If they don’t get injected again, their bodies and minds might not be able to take it, leading to a collapse."
As the top medical authority at the base, Master Qin had seen many significant events but couldn’t solve the current situation. His aged face bore deep fatigue.
A week had passed, and their research progress was almost zero, utterly helpless against the Gu Insects inside the opponents.
"Where is Miss Tang?"
"Still in the lab, but according to her schedule, she should be done in half an hour."
"Please get her here, at least... to stop this wave of unrest."
Faced with several patients, Master Qin was at a loss and could only request external help again. Tang Shu arrived in less than five minutes, with her hair tightly tied into a high ponytail with a black elastic, appearing efficient and neat.
"Master Qin, you called for me?"
"Take a look at these patients; their condition is getting increasingly severe. I’m afraid their bodies might not hold up before we develop an antidote. Do you have any good methods?"
Tang Shu observed the patients for a moment and examined the case files attached to the bedside, finally nodding her head.
"We can try acupuncture, but it will only suppress the Gu Insects inside them and cannot achieve a cure."
"We can only try to buy some time now."
"Then I’ll start with the needles now."
The crowd made way for the young girl, their gazes tightly fixed on the shimmering silver needles in her hands, but even though they watched closely, they couldn’t discern how Tang Shu was administering the needles.
It was too fast, almost like a fleeting shadow!
The slightly younger doctors wanted to cry but had no tears. This thought of secretly learning was not easy, feeling they had grown up in vain.
"This is the gap——"
One of them whispered to a nearby colleague, feeling like crying.
"Isn’t it indeed as they say, there’s always someone better? I didn’t believe it before, but now I can’t help but believe."
Before Tang Shu arrived, even though they were assistants to Doctor Qin, they were also the top students selected from the national medical community, always proud of themselves. However, now that pride was shattered to pieces, impossible to pick up from the ground.
And the person who dealt them this blow was a young girl, vibrant and dynamic!
"Look at this technique, tut, initially I thought of secretly learning, but now it seems completely impossible."
"What else is there to learn? I say, are you two thinking too highly? It’s already quite good if we can keep up with this big shot’s medical thoughts!"
A more despondent voice came from behind the two, who turned to find it was Zhou Lei, a colleague from the same department, looking noticeably more dejected than a few days ago.
"What happened to you, didn’t sleep well last night?"
"Brother, where have you been lately? Wait... that’s not the point, what do you mean by what you just said?"
He looked as if he was lost in thought, "Where have I been? You guys don’t know?!"
The two shook their heads dumbfoundedly, "We don’t know, there have been so many patients recently, we’re too busy with rounds and assisting Master Qin to pay attention to others."
"So, where have you been, brother, and what did you mean by what you just said?"
"Three days ago, I started assisting Miss Tang, cooperating with her in all her work. At first, I didn’t think much of it, but reality gave me a harsh jolt..."
Zhou Lei’s expression was filled with existential doubt, "Can you imagine it? Me, a master’s graduate, couldn’t keep up with Miss Tang’s research thinking!"
"..."
Sorry, they seemed to be experiencing auditory hallucinations. Surely they didn’t sleep well last night, or maybe they were too tired from work this morning.
"Hey, what’s with your expressions?"
"Ehhh~~~ I think it’s the same as yours earlier?"
"..."
Zhou Lei said he couldn’t respond to that.
While the three were whispering, the patient on the bed opposite ended up with a dense array of silver needles, about twenty in total, on his chest. They shimmered eerily under the overhead light.
"Oh my God, this is the first time I’ve seen acupuncture!"
"There aren’t many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who can do acupuncture now, let alone so professionally..."
"Oh heavens, I can only recognize sixteen acupoints here. What about the rest? I don’t remember them being on the acupoint map?"
