Chapter 247: Small Troubles Lead to Big Problems
"Mr. Ye, I'm here to discuss something with you. ←," as soon as he let go of his hand, Chen Bingwen smiled and explained his intentions: "I just watched the rehearsal and found out that Mr. Ye's singing repertoire tonight had a conflict with Chris, and I hope Mr. Ye can be polite." Oh, Chris is the abbreviation of Mr. Huang Kaitan's English name. ”
"Is it the song "Late Autumn"?" Ye Zi wanted to confirm it first.
Chen Bingwen nodded: "This is it." Please also ask Mr. Ye to bear with me, Bingwen is grateful. ”
Chen Bingwen's style of acting is direct and bright, and his tone of voice sounds very polite, which is not bad. But the trace of arrogance hidden in Chen Bingwen's words made Ye Zi very unhappy in his heart.
What do you mean by "I hope you will be polite"? It's you who came to discuss things with me, not me to discuss things with you, but you don't say anything and ask me to "give in", is there such a reason? At the very least, you're going to give me a reason to be "compelling", right? Is it just because Huang Kaitan is a Xiangjiang singer that I should automatically be "polite"?
What is the difference between such an arrogant attitude and the group of reporters Ye Zi faced in Xiangjiang?
And Chen Bingwen's move of coming directly to the door is even more inappropriate.
When he learned that Huang Kaitan was invited to perform, Ye Zi was already mentally prepared to avoid it. This is not because Huang Kaitan is a famous Xiangjiang singer, Ye Zi must let him. The TV station can think and do this, but for Ye Zi, the main reason for choosing to avoid it is because as a landlord, he made a decision out of respect for the visitors.
In Ye Zi's heart, this is a matter of etiquette, not a question of fame, early or late debut, and not a question of which side of the Xiangjiang singer or the mainland singer is heavier.
Another reason for choosing to avoid is Ye Zi's appreciation and respect for Huang Kaitan, a "poet and singer" in Hong Kong.
But it's one thing to choose to avoid, it's another to decide who makes the decision. Ye Zi and Huang Kaitan are both actors invited by TV stations. Each other's identities are equal, and there is no distinction between who is higher and who is lower. This matter should be coordinated by the TV station with both parties, or Huang Kaitan personally came to discuss with Ye Zi, this is the reason why the guests and hosts respect each other. It must not be like now, Chen Bingwen came over to say such a simple sentence to Ye Zi, and Ye Zi obediently avoided it.
If you do that. What has Ye Zi become! Self-dwarfing and self-deprecating obedient minions? If Mr. Wu knew about this, not only would he be scolded by him, but this year-old friendship between them would definitely be gone. Mr. Wu doesn't have a soft bone and blue eyes.
This matter seems to be very small, but this is a matter of mutual respect between the two actors, Ye Zi and Huang Kaitan. To put it more broadly, this can also be seen as a matter of mutual respect between actors in the Hong Kong and Taiwan Strait and mainland actors.
Ye Zi can back down on the singing repertoire, but the premise is to gain enough respect from the other party.
And at this point, Ye Zi will never back down.
"Mr. Chen, from my own point of view, I am willing to help you with this." Ye Zi also said politely: "But Mr. Chen had better inform the program team about this matter." They set my program, and they will make appropriate arrangements according to the current situation. ”
Ye Zi's words are very interesting.
You have to figure it out first, there is a first-come-first-served approach to this matter. Now you come to beg me, and if you ask someone, you have to beg for someone. If I'm willing to help, that's polite, if I don't want to help, that's my duty, and you don't have the right to ask me to do something. If you want to solve this matter, you don't have to say it, you have to come forward with the program team.
There is nothing wrong with Ye Zi's words themselves.
From the perspective of an actor with an independent personality, self-esteem and self-love. That's a very correct answer. Chen Bingwen is just Huang Kaitan's agent, and he has no right to make any decisions for Ye Zi.
Listen to Ye Zi's answer. Chen Bingwen was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face that had been on his face froze there.
In his opinion, this is a small thing. If the singing track crashes, it must be you who avoid it, so what do you need to say? I, the agent, have personally stepped out and thanked you. What more do you want?
"Mr. Ye, this ...... It doesn't seem necessary, does it? It's not a big deal, can't you just agree to it? There's no need to go through the guò program group anymore, right? Reaching out to help his glasses, Chen Bingwen said as if he didn't understand a little. In fact, he was already secretly screaming in his heart that he had made a mistake, and he knew it was so. How good it is to have a direct access to the guò program group.
Chen Bingwen really doesn't understand? How can it be.
Of course, Chen Bingwen knows that he only needs to communicate with the program team about this matter, and the program team will do the work of the singer opposite. It's just that he originally thought that this was a trivial matter, and he could completely solve it by himself, so why bother with the hands of the guò program team? Don't talk about the trouble, you still have to beg others, so you can just do it yourself. In his mind, the other party should not refute his face. In the past few years of performances in the mainland, when did you not mention the conditions yourself, and the other party immediately agreed? Even if it is an unreasonable request, the other party has not denied it once.
So when he opened his mouth to Ye Zi, Chen Bingwen was very sure in his heart, but he never expected that this time he would be rejected directly. At this moment, Chen Bingwen felt uncomfortable.
Chen Bingwen felt that he had given the other party a lot of face by personally negotiating, but the opposite person did not give himself face at all, and still insisted on solving the problem by going through the guò program team. This made Chen Bingwen feel gloomy, and he was a little embarrassed to get into the sheath.
His heart began to feel resentful.
Ye Zi didn't know what Chen Bingwen was thinking, even if he knew, he still had to insist on what he should insist on.
This is the truth, no one is inferior.
However, the other party is also a guest, Ye Zi thought about it, and still explained: "Mr. Chen, the repertoire arrangement has been determined a few days ago, and now if it is to be changed temporarily, it must be agreed by the guò program team." Please communicate with the program team, I won't have any problems here, and I can promise you this now. ”
Ye Zi expressed his kindness.
"Can't it really be solved directly?" Chen Bingwen's voice cooled, the smile on his face gradually faded, and behind his glasses, his eyes flickered slightly.
"Mr. Chen, this is the most direct way." Ye Zi insisted on his point of view: "It's just a procedural issue, you just ask the program team to find someone to communicate with me." Mr. Chen, please make a hard trip. ”
"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'...... Let's go for a hard trip. Chen Bingwen bit the word "hard" hard, and the smile on his face had disappeared.
"We'll see you later." After speaking, without waiting for Ye Zi to respond, Chen Bingwen left in a hurry.
Ye Zi shook his head and continued to walk towards the lounge.
After returning to the lounge and sitting for a long time, Zhang Wenliang showed his face at the door, saw Ye Zi, and immediately called him and beckoned to him.
Ye Zi walked over quickly.
"Teacher Zhang, are you looking for me?"
"Well, you come with me." Zhang Wenliang nodded, his face was stern, and he took the lead in walking towards the VIP lounge. As soon as he looked at this direction, Ye Zi knew that this must be the same thing just now.
"We're going to the temporary office now, someone just now sued you, and Director Cheng is very unhappy. Don't talk too much later, Teacher Zhou and I are here, you don't have to worry. While walking, Zhang Wenliang explained to Ye Zi softly.
Ye Zi hesitated slightly, and said in surprise: "No, Teacher Zhang, such a small incident has alarmed Director Cheng?" It's the case of Chen Bing's complaint, right? What did Huang Kaitan say? ”
Zhang Wenliang nodded slightly: "Huang Kaitan's attitude is not clear. The performance contract stipulates that we cannot have direct contact with the actors, and we must pass through Chen Bingwen in every qiē. This guy is a-stirring stick, he just asked Director Cheng to cancel your performance qualification, otherwise he will withdraw from this party with Huang Kaitan. ”
"Xiao Yezi, you may have to take a step back later, you have to be mentally prepared."
"This xx!" Ye Zi scolded softly, then nodded and said, "Teacher Zhang, I know what you said, thank you for the reminder." ”
patted Ye Zi on the shoulder, and Zhang Wenliang showed a smile: "You didn't do anything wrong in this matter, the program change should have been done through the program team." If you directly agreed to that Chen Bingwen just now, then I would have to criticize you now. ”
"Little leaf, well done!"
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Ye Zi also smiled: "I just can't get used to his appearance, as if he is great from Xiangjiang, I am not used to his stinky problems." ”
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, I have a solution for this matter, do you think we can do this......"
Zhang Wenliang listened, his eyes lit up.
Although Zhou Fang and Zhang Wenliang were a little passive, Zhou Fang and Zhang Wenliang were very supportive of Ye Zi's actions just now.
Ye Zi's actions not only maintained his own dignity, but also maintained the dignity and face of the TV station, and Zhou Fang and Zhang Wenliang would of course support it. Even Director Cheng Zhongqing, although Zhang Wenliang said that he was very unhappy, I am afraid that he also agreed with Ye Zi in his heart.
It's just that as the head of a company, in the face of the accusations and attacks of some "Xiangjiang guests" against local actors, he has to uphold fairness and can't say it directly.
