Chapter 188: Provocation
"Interesting?" Lin Xiao didn't pay attention, thought about it carefully, and wanted to laugh, but found that the injured part of his face was painful, and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't want to say anything.
After accompanying Lin Xiao for a while, Li Hao also left, and came back after a while and took a few books.
The next night, Ding Hey and Tong Haiyan came over.
Ding He's face flushed with excitement, and he laughed when he saw Lin Xiao.
"Xiaolin, you are an actor's doping now."
"What's going on? Director Ding? After a day of rest, he had basically no problem talking, and he could continue filming just after the swelling subsided.
"Today, every actor is basically holding back their energy." Ding Hehe laughed and said, "You didn't look at that momentum, we have said several times that we can pass, but they are still not satisfied." Sun Li and He Yundong's confrontation today, both of them asked for a reshoot. After the whole day's play, the acting skills of many shots can be comparable to movies. β
"You're being targeted by everyone."
"It's a good start." Tong Haiyan was also very happy, "It can be said that it is thanks to you, the shock you brought to them last night was too great." Everyone is working hard today. β
Since Lin Xiao's wound was not healed yet, they didn't stay long, put down the fruit they brought and left.
As soon as they opened the door, they were stunned, and there were two extremely unseemly people standing outside the door.
In front is Xu Ziyao in a suit and leather shoes, followed by a very raw fat man, Ding Hey thought for a long time before remembering that this fat man seems to be a small field work of the crew.
"Manager Xu, it's really rare that you will come to visit an artist in person." Tong Haiyan sank his face first, and did not show any shame.
"It's my duty to be there. Once the film is sold, I can go further. Xu Ziyao smiled like a chΕ«n wind.
Ding Hey restrained his smile and quietly closed the door.
He said solemnly, "Manager Xu, let's not talk darkly, you and Xiaolin have a bit of a holiday." But that's all from the last play, and I don't want you to bring the dispute to this play. β
Xu Ziyao smiled and said, "Director Ding, you also have too much experience, how can I be as knowledgeable as a junior?" I just heard that the main actor was injured and came over to take a look. If you don't like us meeting, then I'll leave? β
Ding Hey and Tong Haiyan looked at him from head to toe, and said half-admonishing, half-reminding, "Manager Xu, Lin Xiao is the soul of this play." I think you've seen the atmosphere on the set today, and I hope you don't do anything bad for the crew. β
After saying that, he and Tong Haiyan left together.
"I really think of myself as a corner." As soon as the two walked out not far away, Qian Zhong sneered, "Without investment, they are a fart." β
"People, always think highly of themselves when they have power." Xu Ziyao said lightly, "Scream so much, let them turn their faces with us, they dare?" β
"The first thing that every weak country does after being invaded is to make a stern protest. But the protest is over, and it's not. Just let him protest. β
After Xu Ziyao finished speaking, he turned his head and asked Qian Zhong, "Have you finished filming?" β
"Mr. Xu, rest assured, it's done."
"I'll send it out tomorrow.,Contact the magazine that has a good relationship with Tianguang.γ They should be interested. β
"Mr. Xu, you can rest assured."
"Rest assured?" Xu Ziyao sneered: "Don't worry, Ulan Butong was messed up by you idiots last time?" It almost touched me. With your kind of intelligence, you can also do field work. β
Qian Zhong's face was suffocated into pig liver, and he couldn't say a word.
"At the end of the day, it wasn't for me to do it myself. I can rest assured that I will leave it to you. His eyes cooled, and he glanced at the ward, "Dare not give me face in the first year, let me clean you up with my own hands, and it can be regarded as your creation." β
After speaking, he adjusted his expression and pushed open the door of the ward.
None of the three of them spoke, Lin Xiao just glanced at them and continued to look at the book in his hand. And Xu Ziyao and the others were not polite, pulled the chair and sat down.
He leisurely crossed Erlang's legs and lit a cigarette.
"Smoking is not allowed in the ward." Lin Xiao closed the book, looked at the two uninvited guests and said.
Xu Ziyao smiled and took a deep breath, and the blue smoke was all over the sky.
"It's just a second-year actor, don't take yourself too seriously." He smiled and said, "As an investor, even if the director wants to protect you, there are many ways to get you." I advise you to pay attention to the tone of your speech. β
Qian Zhong didn't speak, staring at Lin Xiao with resentful eyes like a poisonous snake.
It was the person in front of him who made him fall from the position of prop manager to nothing! In his heart, he longed to split the other party's five horses!
"I didn't scold you, I'm already paying attention to the tone." Lin Xiao saw Qian Zhong and suddenly smiled, "Isn't this Manager Qian?" It's been a long time, I heard that you've been promoted recently? β
"TOEFL." Qian Zhong replied briefly, gritting his teeth.
Xu Ziyao waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "I really didn't expect that we could meet together." I didn't expect that you would have the courage to play it knowing that I was here. β
"Since you're here, I can't say anything if I don't leave you a souvenir." Xu Ziyao's smile was still the same, but it was a pity that at this moment he was like a poisonous snake that had shed all its disguise, and it had already shown its teeth.
"Isn't my salary just a memento you left me?"
"That's just a little bit of a thing, no thanks." Xu Ziyao took it unequivocally.
Lin Xiao thought for a while, "If you do it so openly, aren't you afraid that Ding Dao will be dissatisfied with them?" In the end, the film could not be sold? β
"Are they dissatisfied?" Xu Ziyao pretended to be surprised and said, "What can they do if they are dissatisfied?" In this world, whoever is in charge of money is the boss. Don't say they don't know what I told you, but what if they do? β
"As long as I have a portion of the investment, they will never dare to really turn against me. Without our investment, this drama would not have been filmed! β
Lin Xiao nodded secretly, the other party was telling the truth, and if he pulled investment, it would lead to serious damage to the progress of the crew, not only the pressure of public opinion outside was huge, but it would also lead to the loss of confidence of other investors, and finally make this drama stillborn.
He really has no fear. He glanced at Xu Ziyao, the other party had already gone into battle in person, and walked to the front of the stage from behind the scenes, obviously to hug Ulan Butong.
"I found it a pleasure to talk to you." Xu Ziyao stepped on the cigarette butt on the ground and laughed happily, "I hope you have a happy time during the filming of this drama, and I look forward to the company daring to ask you to film after the filming of Yuguanyin." β
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, "There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence?" β
"Do you know how to show weakness?" Qian Zhong grinded his teeth, almost suppressed his roar, "Tell you!" There are no doors! β
Lin Xiao didn't answer, just looked at Xu Ziyao. He was thinking about the quality of the play.
"No, you, must die." Xu Ziyao sneered and walked out with Qian Zhong.
The ward was quiet, Lin Xiao didn't have the slightest sadness on his face, he was quiet for a while, and suddenly smiled, "Manager Xu, it is said that it is good to see each other after being a man, you really have to be desperate." β
"However, you really don't have to worry about pulling the list after rì."
He picked up the phone and dialed CAMI's number.
"Call so late! Look for trouble!? "CAMI'S VOICE IS BAD.
Lin Xiao ignored her and said directly, "There is something I haven't mentioned to you." β
"Say."
"Xu Ziyao is also in this crew, and he is still in the original position."
CAMI was silent, she naturally knew about Ulan Butong, and she knew better that the other party had revenge.
She sighed, "You wait a minute, I'll come over in three days and follow you to the end of the crew." Anyway, there are Li Hao and Tang Wei, so I should come to visit the class. β
"I didn't let you come." Lin Xiao changed the subject: "I wanted to ask you a few things." β
"First of all, do you have a good relationship with Xu Ziyao?"
"Acquaintances in general."
"So, does the company still have spare money to invest in a TV series?"
CAMI was suddenly shocked: "Do you want the company to invest in Jade Guanyin?!" β
"Yes."
"Impossible!" CAMI immediately refused, "Now that the investor agreement has been decided, how can it continue to raise, this will be related to the distribution of interests of the group of people who invested first, no one will agree, even if the crew is greedy, they can't call the shots." β
"The most important thing is that I don't see anything to gain from investing in your play. I'm still helping you wipe your ass with 25% of your mouth, and you still want the company to continue to invest? β
"Also, since they are all invested, which investor can withdraw at will? Don't tell me it's Xu Ziyao, you've watched too many sci-fi movies. If he dares to divest his investment, he has to get out. β
Lin Xiao laughed: "What if I say it's him?" β
"Are you insane?" CAMI GASPED.
Lin Xiao continued, "I remember that there is a clause in every contract that cannot be performed due to irresistible external forces, and the contract will be deemed invalid, right? β
"So what?"
Lin Xiao laughed, "That 'irresistible external force' is about to happen soon, Sister CAMI, the company is a film and television company, but it has not invested in movies yet." Isn't Mr. Chu going to take this opportunity to justify himself? β
CAMI was silent, this proposal was likely to make Mr. Chu tempted.
Yongle's young son, investing one million into it is just a matter of fun, but it can put the company's reputation on the right track, and Chu Yiming is likely to nod.
Her tone softened, it didn't matter if Jade Guanyin was worth investing in or not, the company's fame was the key to a further leap.
"What are you going to do?"
"It's nothing, it's just that it's time for them to pull up the list." Lin Xiao said ominously.
"Are you sure he'll pull off?" CAMI added, "And not in breach of contract?" β
"That's not realistic, is it?!"
"I'm sure, very sure. Besides, Sister CAMI, you just need to say that Mr. Chu will send someone to take a look at the investment environment and get ready, and when Xu Ziyao withdraws, the crew will definitely be in a hurry to find a new investor immediately, and the company can contact it immediately at that time, it is not troublesome to say, but it needs to be talked about in the final dividend. β
"In that case, I'll try to talk to Mr. Chu." CAMI FINALLY NODDED.
Hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao sighed. The showbiz is like rivers and lakes, and he doesn't know how many times he has sighed like this. People do not hurt the tiger, the tiger is harmful to people's hearts, uprooting is the best way.
