Chapter 174. Someone wants to meet you

The tactic understanding between Xin Ren, Xiao Rin and Lin Ru wasn't bad, especially because they had worked together on the album before.

Although Xiao Rin and Lin Ru has a feud with each other, it didn't pose a threat to the rehearsals.

Only Lumous kept making mistakes, but it was also understandable because they were new and nervous to be performing with celebrities.

But most of the rehearsals went well and the staff who has came to review the performance all has praises for them.

"Brother Ren, do you have any schedule after this?"

After the rehearsal ended, Xiao Rin asked Ren.

Lin Ru has already left before this, because she has some work. She was not willing to leave Ren alone with Xiao Rin, but she has to go after the pestering from her manager.

Lumous also left because they still have work because of their album.

They will again meet during the rest of the rehearsals and the dress rehearsals and so on. Their schedule would be busy from now on.

That's why, there were only Xiao Rin and Ren left.

"No, I don't think I have anything…"

'Ring!''Ring!'

As Ren was talking, a phone call interrupted their conversation.

He picked it up and Director Zhao's voice resounded from the other end of the phone.

-The rehearsal should have ended till now. Are you free now?

"Yes, I'm free. Did something happened?"

Ren asked curiously. He wondered why Director Zhao has called him

-Yes, someone wants to meet you.

"Who wants to meet me? Is it the CEO?"

-No, I have already sent White bear to Tianjing concert hall. He should be there soon. Just come with him.

The phone call ended after that.

'Who wants to meet me?'

Ren pondered after the phone call has ended.

"Brother Ren, did something happened?"

Xiao Rin asked. She felt that there was something wrong with the call and a problem has occurred.

"No, everything is fine. I just have to go now. Something came up."

"Should I come with you?"

"No, it should not be necessary."

Ren shook his head and replied.

Xiao Rin wanted to pester more but she didn't said anything else.

Ren left Tianjing concert hall after that. White bear was already in the parking lot, so Ren didn't have to wait much.

"Where are we going?"

Ren asked White bear as he was really curious about it. Director Zhao has suddenly called him and said that someone wanted to meet him.

Of course, he would be curious.

"I don't know. I suddenly got a call that said to pick you up and go to Chehua tea house."

White bear replied as he shook his head. He really didn't know anything about this matter.

"Chehua tea house? Why there?"

"I don't know."

'Maybe the meeting would be there.'

Ren thought as he wondered who wanted to meet him. He know that it must be someone important as Director Zhao himself called him.

He would surely be a bigshot in the industry.

"So, this is Chehua tea house."

Ren and White bear exclaimed in admiration when they finally entered the tea house.

The tea house was located in a secluded alley in a old district. Not many people would come here because of it's location but it was still running.

Ren thought that the owner must be very rich.

It was because of the antiques displayed in the tea house. They all looked to be old and precious, giving the place an antique look.

"Excuse me, we are looking for…"

Ren and White bear quickly found a waiter and ask about the whereabouts of Director Zhao.

After knowing that they were looking for Director Zhao, the waiter led them to a inner room.

The inner room was spacious and there were only two people sitting here.

One was obviously Director Zhao, but Ren didn't knew the identity of the second person present in the room.

The person was an old man who looked to be in his late 50s, but despite being old, he seemed to be full of vitality.

He has a long white beard and he was talking happily with Director Zhao, but Ren could still decipher that Director Zhao was being respectful to the man.

Ren was confirmed that the man was a bigshot seeing this.

"Ren, White bear, you are here."

Director Zhao instantly greeted Ren and White bear once he saw them enter the room.

"Director Zhao, is this the person who wanted to meet me?"

Ren asked as he glanced at the old man sitting in front of Director Zhao. White bear was also doing the same.

The old man was also glancing at Ren with a grin in his smile, as if he was trying to look into Ren's soul.

"Yes, let me introduce him. Actually, you may have heard of him. His name is Director Chen Pu."

'Director Chen Pu!!'

Ren was shocked when he heard that the old man was Director Chen Pu.

As someone who belongs to the entertainment industry, Ren obviously knows who Director Chen Pu was.

He was known as one of the golden director's in the Chinese film industry.

He was a old director who has once directed the drama based on the 'Romance of the three kingdoms'.

It was a drama which has gotten a rating of 89.35 % in the 90s. Although there were not many major satellite TV stations at that point, it was still nothing short of magical.

After that, Director Chen Pu has also directed some other dramas like the «Marshals» which was a drama based on the life of a old warrior coming out of seclusion.

It was a big hit in the early 2000s and it was still regarded as one of the best historical dramas.

After that, Director Chen Pu has directed some more dramas and movies, but unexpectedly they were all flops, despite the brilliant direction by him.

Due to this, many people in the industry think that he has lost his touch and for many years, Director Chen Pu has not made any drama or movie.

People has even forget about him.

But maybe only Ren knows that in the future, he will direct another historical drama which will be major hit with its final ratings surpassing the 10% mark.
