Chapter 462: Indefinite Stoppage
Emily can obviously find that the treatment she has received in the crew in the past two days is completely different from before.
To say that before, she looked down on the Huaguo staff of the crew, so she often picked on them, but those Huaguo staff dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, she knew that they would say bad things about her behind her back, and even scold her, but Emily didn't care, anyway, she wouldn't lose a piece of meat if she was scolded, but it seemed that since yesterday, she found that things were a little different.
Now, even if she doesn't find fault with Huaguo's staff, they often treat her coldly, and sometimes simply ignore her.
"Hey, Emily, I see that you don't seem to have a good time these two days, I want to ask if you need to talk?" The caller was Emily's former assistant named Cantis.
Candace's assistant has been Emily's assistant since she was in college, Emily often changes assistants, but Candice is the best job among the assistants she has ever used, but later Candace graduated, and a director actually took a fancy to her and asked her to make a cameo appearance in a sitcom, but I didn't expect Candice to become famous at this time, and Candace, who is famous, will naturally not be Emily's assistant anymore.
So she resigned with Emily, and after Emily found out, she didn't say anything, but she scolded Candace in private, saying that she was ungrateful, she was just her assistant, and she didn't study acting, and after hooking up with a certain director, she actually got resources, which made Emily feel very angry, maybe the director wanted her to play the sitcom at first, but then it was snatched away by Candace by dirty means.
However, Candace never knew about it, and if she usually met her on any show, Emily still treated her affectionately.
"Candace." Emily said with some irritation, "I'm really annoyed now, I've apologized, but they still won't let me go, I'm really angry." ”
Candace whispered on the other end of the line, "Emily, what the hell is going on?" Why would they scold you? ”
"Isn't it just that they make a big fuss, whether it's pig's feet or chicken feet, these are things that people eat? They brought it to me to eat, and I just took a picture and posted it on Facebook, and I didn't say anything, and they called me racist, which was really speechless. Emily scratched her hair irritably, "Candace, I heard that China has a program that invites you, do you want to interview you?" You must not come, this country is really disgusting, I am as disgusting as stepping on a piece of now, and I especially regret coming here. ”
After Candace became popular because of that sitcom, he also had some fame in China, so an online variety show invited Candace and wanted to interview her, because the sitcom was quite popular in China, to be honest, the sitcom played by Candace was not so highly rated in the United States, and the response was average, but it was very popular in China.
"I don't think so." "Emily, I know you've always been a very happy girl, remember how often we used to play together?" ”
Hearing Candace mention the past, Emily was stunned for a moment, and then quickly smiled and said, "Yes, we've always been very good friends. ”
"You always joke with me that I have a low IQ and that I am lucky to be able to get into college." Candace couldn't help but laugh, "Do you remember? You thought I was from the slums, but when you learned that my parents were teachers, you were surprised and couldn't keep your mouth shut, and yes, you couldn't find a ring before, and you thought I took it, but then the Doberman you raised got sick and was sent to the hospital to find out that it swallowed your ring, which scared us all, but fortunately it was okay later. ”
Hearing Candace mention the Doberman Pinscher she raised, Emily couldn't help but sigh: "I miss Dennis so much, I haven't seen it for two months." ”
"When you're done with the film, you'll be able to come back and be with it." Candace smiled and asked, "Emily, are you feeling better?" ”
Emily listened to her words and nodded, "Thank you Candace, I'm in a much better mood." ”
"Then I'll rest assured, I'm going to start filming here, so I won't chat with you yet, bye."
Hearing Candace hang up the phone, Emily couldn't help but roll her eyes: "What a slut." Start filming and show off with me. ”
However, Emily's mood did improve a lot.
————————————————
Patrick originally thought that Emily had released a video of his apology and should be fine, but what he didn't expect was that when he finished work that day, he should have walked to his side.
"Patrick, there's something I want to tell you." Ying called out like this.
Patrick smiled and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"That's the case, we can't work with a racist, in the previous work process, many staff members have reacted to me about Emily's discrimination against them, these days on the Internet, I'm sure you have also seen it, we have given Emily such a long chance, but she is still unrepentant, now, on behalf of the other Chinese staff in the crew, I will tell you that if Emily continues to be in this crew, then we can only choose the dam worker, we will not work with such a racist." Ying looked at Patrick with a look of determination in his eyes, "Patrick, you are from the United States, and I believe you understand the damage of racism better than I do, because it allows us to be close working partners, but now we can only hate each other." ”
When she said this, Patrick was stunned on the spot.
He looked at Ying Ru in a daze, and said for a long time: "You want dam workers?" ”
"Yes." Ying nodded and handed the joint letter in his hand to Patrick, "All the signatures on this represent our dissatisfaction with Emily, and we hope to get a fair treatment, so now I officially inform you, starting tomorrow, we will no longer work, unless Emily can leave the filming of the movie, we will work indefinitely." ”
The list that Ying Ru handed to Patrick was decided by them together in the past two days, led by Ying Ru, Zuo Xinnuo, Su Niannian, the other Chinese actors who participated in the movie, and the Huaguo staff, after everyone's unanimous discussion, finally determined this matter, there is no Emily without them, there is no Emily with them, anyway, they just can't coexist!
Ying Ru doesn't know what other people think, that's what she thinks herself, she gave Emily such a long chance before, she still doesn't repent, in the face of the country's honor and disgrace, Ying Ru will not back down, everyone used to tolerate Emily, completely because she just behaved in the crew, although arrogant, but the face is quite passable, but Emily is getting more and more excessive.
She can see that some people are not very reluctant, because the opportunity to participate in Patrick's movies is rare, and some people don't want to give up this opportunity because of an Emily, but there are Ying Rushi and Zuo Xinnuo in the front, and more and more people are joining in the back, and some reluctant people can only join in.
Ying Ruye's studio issued a statement that night, claiming that Ying Ru, as the assistant director of Patrick's films, decided not to participate in the next film shooting because Emily in the crew repeatedly made racist remarks, unless the film party contacted Emily's cooperation contract.
Soon after this scarf was issued that night, it was immediately on the top of the hot search.
"Shocking news! It's on the hot search so quickly. ”
"Oh my God!! That's really good! ”
"I'm not the wrong person! Emily insults China and can't be forgiven, although the film is very innocent in this matter, but Emily must make her bear the consequences if she does something wrong, so even if the film party is wronged, we can't back down, because this is a matter of principle. ”
"Actually, I feel that Yingru really has a position, if she doesn't show her attitude now, there should be nothing, and the opportunity to cooperate with Patrick is still quite rare, but she still shows her attitude for the sake of principle, praise!"
"Awesome! Emily still has luck in her heart, and she will not repent, and we must make her bear the consequences for her mistakes! ”
"It's so lovely, it's really great!"
That night, in addition to Ying Rushi, there were also Zuo Xinnuo, Su Niannian, etc., all the Chinese actors who participated in the movie "Yong" issued statements one after another, saying that they also withdrew from the filming of the film in protest, unless Emily withdrew from the filming of the film in the future, everyone would stop work indefinitely.
This incident made a big fuss, and that night, because there were many Chinese actors involved in this matter, the server of the scarf collapsed.
"Great! Our Huaguo actors are getting more and more backbone! ”
"As long as everyone is united, we can let them know that we are not being bullied."
"Emily guessed that she didn't expect things to be so big, now look at how she ends, she sent that kind of apology video to perfunctory us before, and now we not only want you to apologize from the heart, but also want you to quit the filming of "Yong", otherwise even if the movie is released in the future, we will not go to the cinema to watch it!"
"That's right! Support upstairs, Patrick will either give up Emily or give up the film market on the Huaguo side, see how he chooses! ”
"No matter how good the movie is, as long as Emily participates, we will resolutely resist it."
"It's not just Patrick's movie this time, as long as it's Emily's movie in the future, we'll boycott it!"
Ying Ru and other dam workers, as well as domestic netizens, said that if Patrick insisted on Emily participating, they would boycott the release of the movie, and the news soon spread abroad.
In the face of domestic news, foreign netizens are crying out for Emily.
"What the hell did Emily do wrong? She only posted two photos, is it now that even sharing her life is to be labeled as racist? Besides, the netizen who made racist remarks was obviously a netizen who commented under her social feed, what does it have to do with Emily? ”
"I admit that those netizens who commented under Emily's social feed before did have racial discrimination, and we are deeply sorry for this, but this matter has nothing to do with Emily, I hope you don't anger Emily, she is really innocent."
"Chinese people are really funny, and they still have to boycott Patrick's movies, don't they watch them, Patrick's movies won't sell? It's hilarious. ”
"In fact, Patrick made this film to curry favor with the Chinese film market, and their threats must have had an effect, but I'm still angry, Emily is innocent in this matter, they are just angry with an innocent person."
"Yes, the racist is the people who commented before, to be honest, those people not only discriminate against the Chinese, they must also discriminate against blacks, because this kind of person feels white supremacy, and we also think this kind of person is unreasonable, but Emily is really angry, she has already apologized, what do you want her to do?"
"When Lu Sihao's scum matter was exposed before, we were looking forward to who the assistant director would take over his work, and when we saw that it was Ying Ru, we were very happy, because her professional standards are very high, and her character is also very good, but she is very disappointed to me now, she is also involved in this matter, at the expense of Emily, to improve her status in China, and she is very scheming."
"I'm not looking forward to this movie anymore, these Chinese people rely on their own strength, they bully Emily, who is soft-spoken, since they will threaten, so will we, I will put my words here today, if Patrick listens to those people's words and really terminates the contract with Emily, this movie will be released, I won't go to see it? Who's with me? ”
Under this dynamic, many netizens have responded, saying that if Patrick and Emily terminate the contract, then when the movie is released in North American theaters, they will also boycott it.
Now Patrick really has a wolf in front and a tiger in the back.
He didn't sleep all night, if he agreed to respond to their joint request, it would be tantamount to giving up the North American market, but if he didn't terminate Emily's contract, then the film market in China would definitely be gone, and every one of his movies in the future should not expect any box office in China.
The North American film market is his home base, but the film market in China is very huge, often the box office of a Chinese film market can be matched with the box office of the entire North American film market, Patrick doesn't want to lose it, he doesn't understand, how can his film be so difficult, from the last assistant director to this assistant director, it seems that bad luck has been haunting him.
To be honest, he now regrets why he chose Ying Ru as his assistant director in the first place, if he had chosen someone else, would that person still be like this?
I'm afraid not.
Moreover, the dam work should also be organized as such, if it weren't for her, her movie would definitely be shooting smoothly according to the plan, and because of this, the filming of the movie has been suspended.
