"A win-win situation?" Qin Yulong sneered. "Are you taking advantage of me because I'm new to the country and don't know anything? The script you wrote, with that garbage behind-the-scenes footage of feeding my artist sugar water with the same spoon, don't tell me you don't know how badly my artist will be vilified if it gets out. Back in China, your work experience is far richer than mine."
A calculating glint flashed in Dai Yang's eyes, but he remained cheerful on the surface.
"That's not how it works, Miss Qin. I think you don't quite understand the public opinion in this industry. The script in the behind-the-scenes footage you mentioned will definitely not turn out the way you expect. You see others being criticized because one of them is married or has a public boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. Only those who cheat or have affairs get criticized."
But the current situation is that both of our artists are single. If these rumors spread, there's absolutely no moral problem; it will only increase the popularity of both parties—it's a positive response. I think you don't need to worry at all. Besides, you can change the script; we'll definitely cooperate. And once the drama finishes airing, we can immediately dissolve the CP pairing.”
"Heh," Qin Yulong sneered again, "My artist has a good personality. When she rejected you, she wanted to save you some face, so she didn't say anything harsh. But just because she gave you face doesn't mean you can take advantage of her!"
In terms of the commercial value of our artists, how much is your artist worth, and how much traffic does my artist have? We can speak for ourselves with our works and strength without hype, so why should we lower our standards to cooperate with you?
Your scheme is so blatant it's practically jumping out of my face! And besides, with your penchant for creating fake news and stirring up controversy, who knows if your artists are single? They might even have kids by now. Don't even try to get involved!
Qin Yulong's words showed absolutely no respect for the other party.
Dai Yang never expected Qin Yulong to be this kind of person, speaking so rudely and without any room for negotiation.
His expression immediately changed, and he felt a surge of anger rising within him.
Seeing Qin Yulong turn to leave, he grabbed her arm, taking advantage of his tall and strong physique.
Qin Yulong was utterly speechless at being suddenly pulled like this by a stranger.
She chuckled softly and slowly uttered two words: "Let go."
“Ms. Qin, I think you might not have understood me just now. I was really thinking from a win-win perspective.”
"I'll say it again, let me go. You still won't let me go, huh?"
Qin Yulong turned around and slapped Dai Yang across the face.
Qin Yulong used a lot of force in that slap.
The 'snap' was also very loud.
The place where they were talking was a temporary rest shed set up for the lead actors. Although it had a certain degree of privacy, it was not very high.
The moment the slap landed, those inside the shed could even feel the person outside suddenly stop what they were doing.
Dai Yang found it even more unbelievable.
"You actually hit me?"
Qin Yulong glanced at him coldly: "So what if I hit you? Didn't you grab me first and not let go? Didn't I tell you to let go twice and you didn't? You deserve this slap."
"You're a fucking shrew!"
"A shrew?" Qin Yulong chuckled, holding up a finger and waving it in front of Dai Yang. "Don't say that. I prefer people to call me a madwoman. Oh, and I forgot to remind you, don't mess with me."
By the way, since you had the assistant director contact my actor, was the director aware of this as well? Or was it all planned out in advance, just waiting for my actor's approval? Okay, no comment, huh? Fine, I'll go find the director myself then.
We went without hesitation.
Qin Yulong stepped out of the rest shed.
Dai Yang muttered "crazy woman" under his breath and immediately chased after her.
Qin Yulong quickly found a director.
Dai Yang followed closely behind.
Qin Yulong walked with a swagger, exuding a powerful aura.
The director was also taken aback when he saw her.
Dai Yang was now afraid of Qin Yulong's sharp tongue, so he quickly asked the assistant director to clear the set.
Before long, only Qin Yulong, Dai Yang, the director, and the assistant director remained in the studio.
"Hello Director Chen, I am Wen Yan's agent, Qin Yulong. We have met before."
Qin Yulong went through the motions politely, leaving no room for criticism.
The director, of course, knew who she was. He first exchanged a glance with Dai Yang, who was standing next to him, before shaking Qin Yulong's hand.
"I know, what's wrong? Judging from your aura, you could blow the roof off."
Qin Yulong smiled faintly: "Director is joking. No one can demolish a studio just by their aura. However, some inappropriate and low-level tricks can ruin the reputation of a good drama."
"Hahaha," the director laughed. "The way you said that sounds like you're subtly attacking me, like you're making veiled insults."
"Director Chen, as expected of an experienced veteran, saw right through my subtext. So I'll get straight to the point. This morning, the assistant director brought inappropriate behind-the-scenes scripts provided by the male lead's side and demanded that our actors cooperate in filming them. Director Chen, are you aware of this? Did you agree to it?"
"No, no, no, don't jump to conclusions." Before Qin Yulong could finish speaking, Dai Yang's voice rang out, "It's not a request, okay? You can't use those words carelessly. It's called a discussion. Even though you didn't agree, we didn't force your artist to film with us."
"Yes," the director began, trying to smooth things over, "As far as I know, besides the scenes scheduled for each day, Wen Yan doesn't seem to have filmed anything else on set. Are you misunderstanding something?"
