Xiao Yunhai said, "I understand. So if I don't make 'Empresses in the Palace' into a legend, I'll feel sorry for myself. "
Yu Yuexian suddenly said, "Yunhai, are you sure that Zhang Xinyi will play Consort Hua?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Of course. She's definitely the best choice to play Consort Hua. "
Yu Yuexian said, "Then can you let someone sign the contract with her now? I know it's a bit difficult, but I'm really afraid that a long delay will cause trouble. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "What's difficult about it? It's the same whether she signs it now or later. How about this, Sister Yu, you give her a call and tell her not to leave. When we have lunch, I'll sign the contract with her on behalf of the crew. "
"That's great."
Yu Yuexian quickly called Zhang Xinyi and said, "Xinyi, is it convenient to talk over there?"
At this time, Zhang Xinyi had just removed her makeup. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she said, "Wait a minute."
Walking out of the dressing room, Zhang Xinyi came to an empty corner and asked anxiously, "Sister Yu, did the role of Consort Hua fall through? I just saw a girl call the investor of Hanhai Entertainment right in front of us, saying that the role must be hers. "
Yu Yuexian snorted and said, "That girl is simply stupid. She dares to do this kind of thing in public. She's not afraid of breaking the rules in the circle. Don't worry, Director Xiao has already dismissed her. Xinyi, I'm officially informing you that your acting skills have been recognized by all of us. At noon, the crew will sign the contract with you. If you don't have anything else to do, don't leave. "
Hearing this good news, Zhang Xinyi cried happily and said, "Thank you, Sister Yu. Thank you, Director Xiao. Wuwuwuwuwu … "
Yu Yuexian knew very well about the grievances Zhang Xinyi had suffered all these years. She comforted her, "Xinyi, everything is fine now. As long as you play the role of Imperial Concubine Hua well, you will definitely become famous. Good luck. I still have things to do here, so I'll talk to you later. "
Zhang Xinyi nodded and said, "Goodbye, Sister Yu."
After a while, Zhang Xinyi calmed down and returned to the dressing room.
The girl named Wang Qi smiled when she saw the tears on Zhang Xinyi's face. "Sister, I'm so sorry for stealing your role. It can't be helped. The entertainment industry is just that cruel. Please don't be too sad. "
Zhang Xinyi looked at her deeply. Without saying anything, she picked up her bag and left.
After a while, Wang Qi received a call from her Brother Li. Before she could say anything, her face turned extremely ugly. She realized that she was just like a clown with a big mouth.
At noon, the audition was paused. Xiao Yunhai and the others went to the private room on the first floor for lunch.
Yu Yuexian called Zhang Xinyi and asked her to come over to sign the contract.
Soon, Zhang Xinyi arrived at the private room. She bowed to Xiao Yunhai and the others and said, "Thank you for giving this role to me. I promise to play it well."
Xiao Yunhai stood up and said with a smile, "Senior Sister Zhang, you don't have to be so polite. With your acting skills, we are absolutely assured that you will play the role of Imperial Concubine Hua. Neck, give me the contract. "
Huang Bo nodded and took out the two contracts that he had printed in the morning. He said, "Senior Sister Zhang, Director Xiao has already signed it. As long as you sign your name, the contract will take effect. You can take a look at it. This is your salary. Since you haven't acted for eight years, your salary is a little low. It's only 300,000 yuan. "
Zhang Xinyi smiled bitterly. "Let alone 300,000 yuan, I'm willing to act even if I don't get a cent."
Because Yu Yuexian was there, Zhang Xinyi knew that there would be no problem with the contract, so she didn't even look at it and signed her name on it.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Since Sister Zhang has signed the contract, then you are part of our crew. It's noon, so let's have lunch together. "
Zhang Xinyi quickly waved her hand and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."
Yu Yuexian got up and came to her. She pressed her to the seat next to her and said, "You are now Imperial Concubine Hua. You must have the domineering aura of Imperial Concubine Hua. Isn't it just a meal? What's there to be embarrassed about? "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Well, teachers, let's eat."
Because there was still an audition in the afternoon, no one drank.
Xiao Yunhai, as a big eater, was undoubtedly the slowest to eat. Zhang Xinyi, who didn't know Xiao Yunhai well, was very surprised by his huge appetite of three pounds of beef and two pounds of steamed buns.
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "Sister Zhang, don't make a fuss. He is a rice bucket. We are used to it."
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and drank a cup of tea.
Just as he got up, Xiao Yunhai's phone on the table suddenly rang. He opened it and saw that it was Su Yingxue's number.
As soon as Xiao Yunhai picked up the phone, Su Yingxue said in a hurried voice, "Yunhai, Cao Huaqiang just called and said that he wants you to go back to the company immediately to take the lead role in an urban drama."
Xiao Yunhai frowned and asked, "Sister Xue, didn't you tell him that I am going to direct 'Empresses in the Palace'?"
Su Yingxue said, "I told him a long time ago."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Then he is deliberately looking for trouble. Sister Xue, we don't need to pay attention to him. "
"No, your contract is still with the company. If you don't agree, I'm afraid that he will forbid you from acting in 'Empresses in the Palace'. "
"That bastard is using his position to avenge a private grudge. Sister Xue, where is the money I gave to the company? "
Su Yingxue said helplessly, "He just returned it."
It turned out that although Xiao Yunhai was a director in 'Empresses in the Palace', he also played the role of Aisin Gioro Yunli, a prince.
In order to solve the problem from the company, Xiao Yunhai gave the company the money according to his value. But he didn't expect that Cao Huaqiang wouldn't accept it.
How preposterous!
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "Sister Xue, give me Cao Huaqiang's phone number. I will talk to him. "
Su Yingxue gave the phone number to Xiao Yunhai and said, "Yunhai, when you are under someone else's roof, you have to lower your head. Don't get into a conflict with him at this juncture. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yunhai's face immediately turned gloomy.
Zhao Wanqing asked worriedly, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yunhai told him about Cao Huaqiang.
Wang Guoan said, "This is really difficult to deal with. Vice President Cao must have a lot of confidence to make a move at this time. You have to be careful. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "It's fine. I just signed my contract with the company as an actor. The director's contract is not within the scope of the contract. If worse comes to worst, I will not act as Yunli, okay? 'Empresses in the Palace' cost me a lot of effort. No matter what, I have to finish filming it. If anyone dares to stop me, I will not be polite. "
Xiao Yunhai dialed the number Su Yingxue gave him. Cao Huaqiang's voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Yunhai, look at how I treat you. You are the main character of an urban drama. Shouldn't you be thanking me properly? Haha. "Cao Huaqiang seemed to be very happy. There was a hint of pride in his tone as he spoke.
Xiao Yunhai naturally understood the subtext of his words. He smiled and said, "Vice President Cao, I, Xiao Yunhai, am very grateful for the special care you have shown me. I will never forget your great kindness in this lifetime. I will definitely repay you generously in the future. "
Cao Huaqiang laughed and said, "You don't have to be so polite. This is what we should do as leaders. What are you going to do? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "What else can I do? You even returned my money. I can only resign from the role in 'Empresses in the Palace'. "
Cao Huaqiang said, "I understand what you mean. However, I have to tell you that there is a price to pay for going against the company's decision. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Then I will wait and see."
Xiao Yunhai hung up the phone. He took a deep breath and said, "It seems that we need to find a new actor for the role of Yun Li. Let's not talk about this for now. Let's continue with the audition. "
In the Vice President's office of Tianhua Film and Media Company, Cao Huaqiang hung up the phone complacently. He smiled and said to Lin Yuying, who was sitting on the sofa, "As I expected, Xiao Yunhai did not agree to star in this urban drama. He also did not plan to play the role in 'Empresses in the Palace'. He just wants to be a director with peace of mind."
Lin Yuying frowned and said, "Then what should we do?"
Cao Huaqiang snorted and said, "Since I have already thought of this, I naturally have a backup plan. Do you know who invested in this urban drama? "
Lin Yuying shook her head and said, "Isn't it the company?"
"The company only took 30%. The remaining 70% was provided by Yao Wei Investment Company."
Lin Yuying's eyes lit up and said, "Is it Yao Wei's Yao Wei Investment Company? Hehe, Brother Cao is really amazing. "
The predecessor of Yao Wei Investment Company was a not-so-famous underworld gang called Yao Wei Society. In the fight against the underworld 10 years ago, their scale was too small compared to other groups and they did not do any big cases, so they were lucky enough to escape the calamity.
Their boss, Chen Yaowei, sized up the situation and quickly changed from the underworld to a clean one. He set up Yao Wei Investment Company, and those small punks also changed their identities and became the company's security guards.
A few years ago, Chen Yaowei also brought a huge amount of money to participate in the film and television industry. He invested in several movies and TV dramas and gained a lot of profits.
In the circle, everyone knew the background of Yao Wei Investment Company, so they did not want to offend them.
Cao Huaqiang smiled and said, "The lead role of this TV drama is Xiao Yunhai, whom I recommended to Chen Yaowei. He looked at Xiao Yunhai's information and immediately agreed. He also said that he would not act in this movie unless it was Xiao Yunhai. Tell me, how will Chen Yaowei react if I tell him that he refused to act in this movie? "
Lin Yuying laughed and said, "He will definitely fly into a rage. People like them value face more than anything else. Xiao Yunhai's refusal to act in this movie is tantamount to slapping his face. Hehe, this is going to be a good show. "
Cao Huaqiang snorted and said, "Didn't you say that Xiao Yunhai knows Kung Fu? Let me see if his Kung Fu can be compared with the underworld's machete. "
After that, Cao Huaqiang called Chen Yaowei.
