Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1499 - 1473: Teach You a Lesson

Ye Chen also disliked people like Tang Qiang, who acted superior just because they were older.

Everyone present was sincerely impressed with Ye Chen, after all, he stood up to a seasoned actor.

Seeing Ye Chen completely unfazed and daring to confront him, many gave this young man a thumbs up.

Many people couldn’t stand Tang Qiang’s approach, but out of respect for him as a senior, they just went along with it.

This inadvertently fueled Tang Qiang’s arrogance, making him act as if he was the only one that mattered.

Tang Qiang didn’t expect Ye Chen would dare hit him publicly, and at this moment, he was already furious.

"You brat, you dare hit a senior..."

Slap, another slap sounded.

"I swear I’ll get you thrown out of this crew..."

Slap, another slap.

You could say that every time Tang Qiang said something, Ye Chen slapped him.

It got to the point where Tang Qiang no longer dared to speak.

Everyone watching was surprised by this scene.

Ye Chen, however, was completely unconcerned, looking at Tang Qiang with a cold smile.

Tang Qiang was so scared he couldn’t even look into his eyes.

He could feel Ye Chen’s ruthlessness.

Knowing that if he said another word, this young man would certainly slap him again.

Seeing Tang Qiang shut up, Ye Chen smiled and looked at everyone, saying, "Hello everyone, I’m here to guide the work. Let’s cooperate happily."

Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Tang Qiang grasped it as if it were a lifeline and said, "In terms of acting, you can’t compare to me. Who gave you the confidence to guide the work?"

Although Ye Chen hit him, he was a bit scared.

But Tang Qiang, after all, was a seasoned actor, an old artist. How could he let a young man guide him in acting?

If this got out, it would be a laughing stock. How could he continue in the industry?

Tang Qiang was a person who valued face; he could lose anything but not face.

Zhang Mou looked at Tang Qiang and said, "Teacher Zhang, I need to tell you, this is our acting coach. Let me put it this way: he’s here to guide all the actors, including you."

Tang Qiang had an incredulous look on his face upon hearing this.

This was even more humiliating than when Ye Chen hit him earlier.

Looking at Ye Chen in front of him, who was only in his twenties, while he himself was much older than Ye Chen,

The main thing was, he had been acting for so many years, yet he had never even seen this young man in the industry.

But Zhang Mou said Ye Chen was there to guide his acting. How could this not surprise Tang Qiang?

"This, this... how is it possible?"

"He’s so young, he has no qualification to guide me."

As Tang Qiang said this, his whole body was shaking.

"Teacher Zhang, that’s not correct. Mr. Ye was specially invited by the crew. To be honest with you, it was because of his presence that I agreed to direct this movie. His acting is also top-notch; we’ve worked together before."

"I admit your acting is quite refined, but compared to Mr. Ye, it still falls short. Don’t be fooled by Mr. Ye’s youth; his understanding of the roles is also quite profound. Also, the script for the TV drama ’Kite’ that I previously shot was also adapted by him."

"So, Teacher Zhang, you must abandon such outdated thinking; otherwise, your acting can only stay at this level without improvement."

Zhang Mou said sincerely, looking at Tang Qiang.

Even after hearing these words, Tang Qiang still couldn’t believe it.

He even thought Ye Chen was just a young actor brought in with investment, without any real acting skills.

The reason Zhang Mou laid out all the facts was to make Tang Qiang face reality.

But seemingly, his painstaking effort was in vain.

Tang Qiang was completely unwilling to accept reality.

He had always prided himself on his superb acting skills, unmatched by any, so how could he let a young man in his twenties guide him?

"Director Zhang is right, Mr. Ye is someone I hired with a high salary to guide our crew’s actors."

Tong Xiaoya said, looking at Tang Qiang.

Upon hearing this, Tang Qiang’s face turned pale.

With the crew’s director and investor both speaking up for Ye Chen, he had nothing left to say.

However, in his heart, he was certainly not convinced, he had to let this out.

Tang Qiang thought indignantly.

"Young man, you want to guide me? I’ll make sure to embarrass you later."

Even though he was hit, he knew Ye Chen’s strength.

Director Zhang and Tong Xiaoya were both backing Ye Chen, and he could tell this young man wasn’t easy to deal with.

Retaliating physically was out of the question, but he could still humiliate Ye Chen through acting.

In his heart, Tang Qiang looked down on Ye Chen, thinking he was just trash in front of him, not even capable of acting.

After the small episode.

All actors were in place, and the crew’s staff was ready.

In costume, Tang Qiang indeed seemed to embody the Emperor Qin.

One had to say his acting was top-notch too.

Everyone seriously watched, and Ye Chen, as the guide, was also watching on the side.

An hour passed, and everyone marveled at Tang Qiang’s exquisite acting, with even some applauding him.

Although Tang Qiang was a bit arrogant, his acting really left people speechless.

With a scene completed, Tang Qiang walked down from the set.

Still immersed in the role, he looked at Ye Chen with a domineering gaze.

Tang Qiang even felt he had brought the character to life, his ’Emperor’s Aura’ even rivaling that of the contemporary Emperor Qin.

"I feel my acting is simply flawless."

"You young ones, if you want to work in this industry, you need to study hard and stop looking for shortcuts."

"Of course, if you pledge yourself as my students, I might consider it."

Tang Qiang kept praising himself as he walked down from the set.

The arrogant expression returned to his face.

"Ye Chen the guide, do you have anything else to say?"

"I wonder, after you watched my acting, are you also amazed?"

Tang Qiang said with a proud expression, looking at Ye Chen.

Seeing Ye Chen not paying attention, he continued, "Why don’t you say something, quickly find some faults in me."

"I guess you’re so amazed you haven’t recovered yet, hahaha."

At this moment, Tang Qiang seemed to have forgotten the pain just now.

He had forgotten how his face was slapped into swelling just now, forgotten how he feared Ye Chen’s gaze earlier.

Tang Qiang kept babbling arrogantly, a look of pride on his face.

As if he was the number one in this filming set.

Ye Chen said with a smile, "Not a bad performance."

Tong Xiaoya was also surprised at Ye Chen’s actions; Ye Chen wasn’t usually like this.

Despite Tang Qiang being so arrogant, he hadn’t yet retorted this guy.
