Wen Yan observed for a while longer before walking over to the director when she saw that the time was right.
Upon seeing that it was her, the director managed a forced smile.
"I'm sorry, Wen Yan, you're someone I went through a lot of trouble to invite, and then I had to change your role halfway through, but now I'm quitting."
"But don't worry, this script is still a good script. Even if a different director were to direct it, it would still be a hit."
"Let's work together again next time. I hope you can give me another chance then. I believe you will become more and more popular."
"I'll be leaving now. It's been a very pleasant few days working together. I'm confident the production team will make appropriate arrangements for the future."
The director said a lot, and after he finished speaking, he extended his hand to Wen Yan. Wen Yan didn't even have a chance to say a few words to him, so she could only shake his hand firmly.
"Then we'll meet again sometime, and we'll definitely have the opportunity to work together again in the future."
And so, the director angrily left the film crew with his team.
As soon as they left, the other people around started cursing.
"I'm speechless. This is the first time I've ever seen an actor force a director to leave. These two must have some powerful connections."
"I heard there's a big investor involved, otherwise this guy surnamed Fu wouldn't have come all the way from abroad to come here."
"I think her agent doesn't look like someone to mess with either. Do you know what kind of connections he has?"
"I heard he's very capable. Wasn't Fu Yiqing poached by a high-priced company? Logically speaking, once you come to a new company, you have to obey the company's arrangements and the agent assigned by the company, right?"
“But she’s making an exception. She not only came by herself, but also brought her agent with her. It has to be her.”
"It seems that the offer from her company and her agent was quite generous."
"Of course! They're a bunch of snakes and rats, and they're so high-profile. They made the whole crew know how powerful they are. Neither of the two women is any good. They're so arrogant. The moment they appeared, they replaced the entire directing team."
"Thank goodness they didn't replace us."
"..." Wen Yan silently took out her phone, silently looked at the photos of the contract, and silently found the clause about liquidated damages.
Honestly, she doesn't want to stay on this kind of film set; the working environment is just too grueling.
However, upon closer inspection of the penalty clause, wow, it's a huge sum!
The person who should be refunding is Fu Yiqing; she should be the one to pay the penalty for breach of contract.
People from the film crew rushed over as soon as they learned of the incident on set.
Due to the director's strike, the production crew had to suspend all work and give everyone a break.
The production company itself is unsure when the holiday will end, only saying that everyone should wait for news.
Since Wen Yan didn't have any other work at the film and television city for the time being, she simply returned to City A.
To her surprise, Shen Jinghe received the news immediately.
He took the initiative to call Wen Yan.
"How was your day? I heard you lost your job."
"!!!" Wen Yan was shocked. "You knew that too? I was in the film studio and you were in City A. Do you have clairvoyance?"
"This industry is so small, it's hard not to know about these things. I heard the production company of your show is already looking for a new director. Are Fu Yiqing and her agent really that powerful?"
"I don't know the specifics, and they weren't arguing in front of us. But the director quitting definitely wasn't just because of the two of them, but because of the people behind them."
"Well, but no matter what, this actor is definitely not easy to work with. So what are your plans going forward? Do you want to stay in this group?"
"Wait a minute, breaching a contract without cause means paying compensation. I haven't earned a single penny from them yet. Am I going to lose money like this? I'm not going to do a losing business."
"Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"
"Don't be afraid, I still have you as my backer, don't I? What, you're not going to back out, are you?"
“Heh,” Shen Jinghe laughed, “A gentleman’s word is as good as his bond. Even if heaven and earth were to turn upside down, I would never go back on my word.”
"You said it yourself!"
"Genuine or genuine."
"Okay, I'll remember that. You're a dog if you lie to me."
After ending her call with Shen Jinghe, Wen Yan didn't immediately return to the Shen family villa. Instead, she went to order something.
The next day, after waking up naturally, she dressed herself up nicely in front of the mirror.
Fake bangs, colored contact lenses, black-rimmed glasses, hat, mask, and a loose, bulky down jacket.
When she went out dressed like this, Aunt Zhang almost didn't recognize her.
And that was exactly what she wanted.
-
There is also a film and television base in City A. After leaving home, Wen Yan drove here.
Shen Jinghe is currently filming here, and Wen Yan came here specifically to see him today.
Once at the film and television base, Wen Yan didn't need to search hard; she could simply follow the fans holding support signs with Shen Jinghe's name to find out where he was filming that day.
It's still quite cold outside this time of year. Even though Wen Yan wrapped herself up tightly, leaving only her eyes showing, her hands and feet were still freezing.
Looking around at the other fans, some of them weren't wearing masks and their snot was practically freezing out.
Wen Yan herself is very fond of her fans; she cherishes and is grateful for the love and support of each and every one of them.
If fans are waiting for her, she usually asks her assistant to buy some hot drinks for these lovely girls.
Although those waiting with her at this moment were not her fans, they were all very enthusiastic, and there weren't many of them.
