Chapter 51 51. Resource Competition
"Doctor, doctor, what happened to my family?"

"Miss Qiu is fine. She just has a minor fracture. She just needs to rest for a while." The doctor couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he spoke.

At a distance of ten meters, if you are unlucky, you may die directly from damage to your internal organs. Even if you don’t die, you will have serious fractures all over your body.

It turned out that the patient only had a minor fracture.

It’s not that he doesn’t want the patient to get better, but he thinks this situation is really rare, and it’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s God’s blessing.

"Then doctor, how long will the patient need to rest before he can walk?"

The doctor frowned and thought for a while, then said, "If you just want to walk, it will take at least half a month, but it is best to get out of bed after a month, and you can't walk for too long. It will take at least forty days to fully recover. Although it is only a minor fracture, it is easy to have sequelae if it is not healed well."

"One month..." Sister Li felt a darkness before her eyes.

If it was only ten days or half a month, maybe they could still negotiate it out. After all, today's incident was the crew's responsibility. It was their failure to check the props properly that led to the actor's accident.

But if it is a month, or even forty days, then this time is too long. After all, this is just a low-cost TV series and it is impossible to delay for such a long time.

What's more, this is a costume martial arts drama, so all kinds of fighting moves are inevitable. Not to mention walking, running and jumping are all necessary.

But Qiu Ruoran would not be able to perform these actions within at least forty days.

The doctor also knew the patient's identity and the cause of his injury. Out of professional ethics, he spoke out to remind him again.

"My advice is to avoid strenuous exercise within 40 days, otherwise the aftereffects will more easily affect the star's image, such as limping."

Sister Li understood that the doctor’s advice was correct.

Compared to a low-budget TV series, it is definitely more important to keep healthy.

After all, there is always the next drama if this one fails. But if a star who pays great attention to his image fails in his career because of a drama, his life will be over.

After thanking the doctor again, Sister Li saw that Qiu Ruoran had not yet woken up, so she started to deal with the cooperation of this drama.

The drama certainly cannot be filmed at the moment, but the good news is that Qiu Ruoran cannot film due to the crew's fault, so her withdrawal does not count as a breach of contract, and the crew even needs to pay a sum of money because of this accident.

But this is the only good news.

Because of the injury, Qiu Ruoran’s efforts over the past two months have been wasted, and she will not be able to participate in activities for a long time in the future.

Without exposure and not being a big traffic star, it is easy to be forgotten in this era.

But now they have no choice.

After discussing compensation with the crew, Sister Li received a call from the company.

"What? You want to give the resources of "Green Deer Singing" to Fang Xi (xi)? I don't agree!"

"Sister Li, you also understand that some things cannot be resolved without your consent. Now that Qiu Ruoran is injured, can she make it to the filming?"

"Of course! Doesn't 'Aoki no Misaki' start filming in two months? If so, we can resume in just one month!"

"So? Can she guarantee that there won't be any more accidents next time?"

Sister Li suddenly felt a chill on her back.

She seemed to understand something.

The other party couldn't help laughing when he heard her silence.

"In exchange, I can give you the resources for a travel variety show in a month."

Sister Li wanted to yell. What travel variety show could compare to a famous director's award-winning drama?
What's more, the role Qiu Ruoran originally got was not some mediocre supporting role, but the second female lead!

This can be said to be the best resource Qiu Ruoran has obtained since her debut!
"The Sword" is the drama in which Qiu Ruoran was injured. Ten episodes of "The Sword" are not as good as one episode of "The Blue Deer"!
After all, one investment is less than five million, and the other investment is over one hundred million!

If everything went well, she could have used this drama to become popular, even won an award, and then had a smooth journey, but now all of this is gone...

When Qiu Ruoran woke up, she learned this bombshell from Sister Li.

Her already pale face looked even uglier, as if she had crawled out of a coffin.

"Sister Li, I understand. You don't have to help me find connections anymore." Is there anything else Qiu Ruoran doesn't understand?
What an accident!
This is intentional!

Someone deliberately designed to harm her, causing her to fall and break her bones, and she cannot participate in the filming of "The Blue Deer Sings"!

"No, if you don't understand, the doctor actually said that you only need to rest for a month before you can move normally again. You actually have time, but..."

"A month?"

Sister Li attaches so much importance to the drama "The Green Deer Singing". Qiu Ruoran, as the owner of the resources, naturally understands it. "The Green Deer Singing" will be filmed in two months, and she has enough time.

That's not right...

The other party must have done this to make her voluntarily give up this resource, but she only had a minor fracture and would be healed in a month. If she recovered in a month and appeared in the public eye, wouldn't the other party's plan be in vain?

After all, what they want to see is that he gives up due to injury, not that there is any other hidden secret.

Just as Qiu Ruoran was thinking, she heard Sister Li say, "The other party used a travel variety show in exchange for this resource. This variety show will start in a month."

Qiu Ruoran understood.

This is to use this variety show to occupy her schedule, so that even if the role is replaced, Fang Qian, the person who snatched her role, can legitimately take her place.

Qiu Ruoran didn't come because she took part in another variety show, not because she was competing for a role.

But Qiu Ruoran still felt that something was wrong.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Sister Li thought that she couldn't accept the blow, so she hurried to comfort her, and at the same time, she couldn't help but remind her.

"Don't be impulsive. The company said that if you insist on participating in "The Blue Deer Sings", you may get into trouble again..."

This is no longer a hint, it is an explicit statement.

The other party's attitude was very clear. If she didn't give in, then he would make her waste it again so that she would have to give in.

Seeing that she was still silent, Sister Li couldn't bear to see the seedling she had nurtured step by step fall into decline.

"Don't..."

She was about to continue to persuade her, but Qiu Ruoran touched her wrist with one hand and suddenly shouted, "Sister Li! Help me, help me find it. There is a red string on my hand. Help me find it!"

Sister Li was stunned and didn't react.

Wasn't she just feeling sad about losing the opportunity?

Why did you suddenly start looking for the red rope?
Although she was confused, seeing that Qiu Ruoran was not focusing on this matter, Sister Li breathed a sigh of relief and turned to help look for it.

Finally, Sister Li found an intact red rope at the cuff of Qiu Ruoran's clothes.

"Where are the beads? Where are the beads on the red rope!" Qiu Ruoran looked at the empty red rope, feeling a little confused for a moment.
