Chapter 260: Just a Little Bitterness (corrected)
In the adult world, even if the relationship breaks down, there will rarely be any big quarrels.
Those who can quarrel are closely related.
But although Mr. Ma and Director Xu were once partners carrying cameras side by side, it is clear that their relationship is not close enough.
So from the perspective of assistant Yang Hongni, it sounds like Mr. Ma is reprimanding Director Xu, but the real conversation is actually like this -
"Old Xu, I have heard about the matter. Why are young actors nowadays so different?" , He doesn't even know how to behave in a basic way, he's just playing the piano randomly!"
"Yeah, Mr. Ma, I didn't expect things to turn out like this, especially Chen He, who not only spread rumors and disrupted the order of the crew, but also openly It is outrageous to challenge my authority as a director!"
"It is indeed outrageous, Lao Xu, you have been wronged..." "
Mr. Ma, with your words, I can control my huge emotions, don't worry, I will never delay the filming progress of the series..."
"But Lao Xu, then again, there is something wrong with Chen He, but this Tang Lingli's behavior is also very inappropriate!" "
Mr. Ma, what you said is very inappropriate! ...What does it mean?"
Xu Youguang, who was expressing his determination, realized the meaning at this time and asked blankly.
"Tang Lingli is no longer suitable to stay on the crew."
Ma Yuan shook his head with a serious expression, "You may not know, someone took a video and posted it online. Although the public relations department handled it in a timely manner and did not let it go viral on the Internet, Several investors have received the news. This matter... is very troublesome. "
"But if Tang Lingli is really replaced, in the eyes of others, wouldn't it be true for Chen He's remarks? As a director, How can you control the crew?"
Xu Youguang became excited.
"So the best way is for you to avoid suspicion for the time being."
"...Mr. Ma, are you saying that I also want to leave the crew?"
"Old Xu, you have to believe me. If I have a choice, I will definitely still hope You continue to control the production of the entire series, but now it seems that you can only make a compromise first."
Ma Yuan nodded, looking very helpless, "I will let you direct the second season of "Chu Tianyao". Xiao Huang is here to take over, please take a rest first.
"Mr. Ma, are you driving me away?"
Xu Youguang became unbelievable.
"I'm not driving you away, I'm just taking a break for a while. The company happens to be preparing a new TV series. When the script comes out, why don't you go over there and continue directing!"
Ma Yuan patted Xu Youguang on the shoulder, "Xiao Huang is your pride. Disciple, my style is 80% similar to yours, and you can still participate in the post-editing. Don't worry, you still have control over the entire series!"
Xu Youguang opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He nodded dejectedly.
"I understand. Thank you, Mr. Ma, for your kindness."
...
The above is the whole process of the negotiation between the two. Zhou Wang spoke, but stood slightly behind and listened to the whole process.
But what surprised him was that there were still paparazzi lurking in the crew's internal parking lot?
Through the reflector of the car next to him, he could see a girl squatting at the back of the car and listening for a long time. If he wasn't afraid of scaring her, Zhou Wang would have wanted to knock on the hood...
Hey, that little pink, you Gone!
It's just that the paparazzi didn't have cameras, which looked very unprofessional.
Afterwards, Ma Yuan whispered something to Xu Youguang, and Xu Youguang turned around and left, looking quite lonely.
Only then did Zhou Wang walk over, and then expressed his gratitude to Ma Yuan, "Mr. Ma, thank you very much."
This thank you was not only for Ma Yuan's agreement to change the director, but also for the way Ma Yuan handled it.
He never mentioned Zhou Wang during the whole process, nor did he allow Zhou Wang to negotiate with Xu Youguang. In this way, no matter what dissatisfaction Xu Youguang had, he would only go towards Ma Yuan.
In any case, Ma Yuan's approach on this matter is still very open.
"Mr. Zhou, how many minutes should we wait before we go in?"
Ma Yuan just smiled, looked at his watch and said, "Give Lao Xu some time to collect his things and leave, or don't embarrass him in public again."
"Of course. Zhou Wang
nodded, and then invited: "Then go sit in my car and wait. I happened to open a bottle of champagne on the way and haven't finished it yet. I called Mr. Ruan over
and waited in the other car ." Ruan Jingwei called down. Zhou Wang was about to take the two of them into the car when he suddenly remembered something. He stretched out his hand to signal Ma Yuan and Ruan Jingwei to wait, and then he put his head into the car first.
"Yunrou, are you dressed?"
"Done..."
After hearing the slightly shy responses from the two girls, Zhou Wang got out of the way and turned to Ma Yuan and Ma Yuan. Ruan Jingwei smiled and said:
"You two, please!"
The two said: "..."
...
Twenty minutes later.
Near the hotel, there is a photography studio.
In the open space where green screens have been put up in some places, actors, props team, lighting team, costume team, photography team, logistics team... the entire "Chu Tianyao" crew, hundreds of cast and crew members gathered together, bustling .
The staff who received the notice to convene an impromptu crew meeting rushed over.
Most people know that Mr. Ma came to visit the studio with investors today, and such a big event happened in the morning, so at this moment, the studio is full of voices discussing gossip, basically guessing what Mr. Ma will do in the end. How to deal with this matter.
Or to be more precise, how to deal with Chen He.
"Have you noticed that Director Xu has disappeared for a while? He is probably discussing with Mr. Ma, maybe Chen He will really be replaced..."
"Remove the 'maybe', Director Xu said harsh words in public "If Chen He can continue to play the third male lead, how can he be the director?"
"But Chen He is also the actor recommended by the second largest investor. The filming will start tomorrow. Is it too hasty to change the actor now?" "
What you said, who hasn't mentioned the background yet? Is Director Xu a soft persimmon? No matter how awesome Chen He is, can he be as awesome as Sister Xiwei?"
"That's true..."
"I don't even have one." Thinking that Chen He still has the courage to come, he is really stupid!"
"I admire him very much, he can still laugh at this time..."
On the side, Yang Hongni, who was in a complicated mood, listened to several supporting actors! After talking in low voices, I couldn't help but glance at Chen He who was standing "alone" not far away, and murmured in my heart.
Why can't he laugh?
He wants to laugh more than anyone else!
But until now, Yang Hongni still couldn't believe that what she heard on the phone was true.
Because the assistant did not dare to get too close at the time, Yang Hongni still kept the possibility that the assistant might have heard wrongly and did not spread the breaking news to anyone that the director might be replaced.
However, in the plenary meeting of the crew, Xu Youguang, who is supposed to be the host, has not shown up yet, which seems to be proving something...
In fact, it is not only Xu Youguang. If you pay attention, you will find that the executive deputy director is also missing. Also missing is a female director. No. 4 Tang Lingli.
Could it be... is it really true?
Yang Hongni has been in the industry for many years and has seen all kinds of changes. However, the director was changed the day before filming started. This was still the first time she had seen such an outrageous thing.
Chen He didn't notice Yang Hongni's frequent glances. There were so many people looking at him that he had no time to care.
"Teacher Shen, don't worry, I'm fine. You don't have to have any psychological burden."
After comforting Shen Yutong, who came over to say a few words to him because of guilt, Chen He maintained his smile, but in fact, he still felt guilty in his heart. A bit nervous.
Although he vaguely heard what Assistant Yang Hongni said on the phone, he couldn't hear it clearly after all, and he couldn't be 100% sure that Zhou Wang really took action to save him.
With Chen He's perspective, he couldn't even think of the dimension of "changing directors". He only wanted to keep his third male lead and he was in trouble.
No matter what happens, Mr. Zhou will have to find a new role for himself, right?
I heard that Wuyou Media has several short dramas to be launched this year... He can do it too.
In the midst of Chen He's random thoughts, an unknown amount of time passed before a group of people, accompanied by another assistant director from the crew, walked in from the door of the studio. "Mr. Ma!"
"Good afternoon, Mr. Ma!"
The noise in the studio instantly became quieter, replaced by a steady stream of greetings.
Chen He knew that the time to pronounce his fate had come. He took a deep breath and turned around with a determined look. He looked across the crowd. He first saw the assistant director who was leading the way with a flattering smile on his face, and then he walked side by side. OK two people.
One of them was Mr. Ma whom he had met before, and as for the other one...
what the hell?
Damn it! !
Who did I see?
Chen He felt that he had never been so excited when he chased Endme. Boss, are you the legendary unparalleled hero with colorful auspicious clouds?
Chen He never expected that the investor representative who visited the team today was Zhou Wang!
After the excitement and excitement, Chen He completely relaxed, and that indifferent smile appeared on his face again. He knew...
this wave was stable.
Extremely stable.
...
"Yutong, that's not..."
"Sister, I know."
Shen Yutong, whose vision had been blurred for a long time, started to speak after hearing the little startled voice coming from Shen Yurou.
She actually didn't hear what Shen Yurou was saying, or at this moment, other sounds were not important at all.
She also forgot about the so-called situation and encounters, and she didn't care why Zhou Wang came. It was only then that she realized...
she missed Zhou Wang so much.
Hidden behind the cautious greetings every day, Shen Yutong has always thought that as long as...as long as he returns her reply.
At least it shows that what happened in Yue Center Apartment was not a dream.
She really took that step with Zhou Wang.
But now Shen Yutong realized that she had never been satisfied.
In fact, she really wanted to be like Su Yajing, who could send messages to Zhou Wang unscrupulously, act coquettishly with him, use all kinds of fever photos to seduce Zhou Wang, and vent her longing...
Shen Yutong knew that she was not normal. , it has long been abnormal.
I don't know since when, she has been worrying about gains and losses, and has fallen into the web weaved by herself.
All "hesitation" is actually "slow decline".
It's only been more than a week, but why do I miss him so much? It's like a century has passed...
No matter what.
"I saw him."
That's great...
"
That young man... is the management representative?"
"Probably not, although there seems to be no one else around Mr. Ma... Could it be that he is the new male third
"No, you don't know him?" "
Who is Zhou Wang?"
"A self-made billionaire,"
"Wow, " So handsome, so handsome, he is even more handsome than in the video..."
As the group of people came to the middle of the studio, more and more eyes began to focus on the young man next to Ma Yuan.
He was wearing Hermès casual clothes, with a steady walk, a generous smile, and the grace he exuded inadvertently. In the eyes of some nymphomaniac girls, he was like an ancient aristocrat from a comic book -
after months of precipitation, [Deportment Training Book ] has been completely integrated into Zhou Wang's bones. When he pays special attention to it, the upright demeanor that seems to have been cultivated since childhood will become more apparent.
Zhou Wang waved to some of the cast and crew members who recognized him, and he and Ma Yuan came to the front of the crowd.
He didn't care about Chen He, but he saw Shen Yutong and noticed Shen Yutong's sticky eyes that seemed to melt him.
But at this time, he couldn't express anything, so he just looked at her deeply in response.
"To all the staff of the "Chu Tianyao" crew, thank you for your hard work!"
At this time, Ma Yuan had already taken the microphone on the side and said hello loudly.
After the usual applause, Ma Yuan did not rush to introduce Zhou Wang, but suppressed some of his smile and continued:
"Everyone, before talking about anything else, I want to announce two things first!"
Seeing Ma Yuan's expression change, everyone After realizing something, they all became serious, and many eyes began to turn in Chen He's direction.
"About the farce that happened on the set this morning, I believe everyone has heard about it..."
Sure enough, Ma Yuan attracted everyone's attention as soon as he opened his mouth, and everyone became attentive.
"After discussions with all the investors, the final decision is as follows: to terminate the acting contracts with executive deputy director Liu Gengsheng and cast member Tang Lingli, and reserve the right to pursue their relevant legal responsibilities!"
There was a brief silence at the scene, and then Hustle and bustle arose.
"Huh? Am I hallucinating? Who has been terminated from the contract..."
"Damn it, how could it be Director Liu and Tang Lingli!"
This unprepared reversal is so blunt that it is jaw-dropping.
"No, Tang Lingli won't talk anymore. Director Liu is also Director Xu's right-hand man. Could it be that Director Xu is just watching..."
Before anyone could finish their question, Ma Yuan had already raised the microphone and shouted loudly. After all the noise.
"The second thing is that the chief director Xu Youguang has resigned from the position of director of "Chu Tianyao" due to a sudden physical illness, and the company will send someone else to take over..."
If it was an extremely blunt reversal just now, then Ma Yuan now These words are three earth-shattering exclamation points.
Feeling sick?
Of course no one believes this nonsense.
After all, Director Xu was still alive and kicking in the morning...
So, this was actually just a decent way of saying it.
What is decent inside is naturally not a decent fact.
That's not right!
Suddenly someone remembered what Xu Youguang said to Chen He in the morning:
"If you can still stay here, I will let you be the director!"
In this situation, although Chen He is not the new director,... Xu Youguang Not anymore.
For a moment, everyone who reacted looked at Chen He on the edge. The chain reaction attracted more people. The atmosphere in the entire studio became weird, and everyone's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Chen He... who is he?
Facing many looks, Chen He unconsciously put one hand in his pocket, his expression neither sad nor happy.
If a microphone were handed to him at this time, he would probably only smile faintly:
"It's just...a little bit of wind and frost."
