Chapter 18 Confrontation
The meeting is over.
Fu Zheng leaned back in his chair and rubbed his eyebrows.
At this moment, the cell phone rang.
Fu Zheng picked up the phone, glanced at the screen and answered, "Hello."
"A Zheng, are you in the company? I'll come find you now."
Fu Zheng glanced at the calendar on the table and asked, "Did you finish filming so soon today?"
Chu Siyi hesitated to speak, "Today... today there is no filming."
"No filming? Why?" Fu Zheng asked.
When he went out to the bathroom just now, he saw that Wen Liang's office door was locked, obviously he was out on business.
Wen Liang would always be there watching every commercial shoot.
Since she had already gone to the studio today, how come there was no filming?
"When we arrived at the studio, Aliang suddenly told us that something urgent was going on and that we couldn't continue filming. Then she left and we didn't know what happened."
"There must be some emergency. Since there's no filming, come find me at the office."
Fu Zheng has noticed Wen Liang's work attitude over the past three years.
If there is no special situation, she will not shoot.
Hearing that there was no blame for Wen Liang in Fu Zheng's tone, Chu Siyi on the other end of the phone sneered, but said gently, "I guess something special happened. By the way, Zheng, I have a favor to ask of you."
"What's up?"
"For this shoot, I wanted to bring my own makeup artist. I've been abroad for a few years and when I returned to China, I felt a little uncomfortable with the climate and my skin wasn't in great shape. I was worried that the makeup artists back home wouldn't understand the situation and the makeup wouldn't be as effective as I expected, which would naturally not look good in the photos. My makeup artist knows my skin condition best and can bring out the best in me."
Fu Zheng thought it was a big deal, "You have to report this little thing to me?"
Chu Siyi said, "How can this be a small matter? No matter how small the work matter is, it must be communicated properly. This shows mutual respect and sincerity in cooperation. Ah Zheng, I care about this endorsement very much, so of course I have to pay attention to everything. If I don't report it in advance, someone might say I'm a big shot."
"You're right."
Chu Siyi had to explain such a small matter to Fu Zheng, but Wen Liang did not inform Fu Zheng that there would be no filming today. It is obvious who is better.
It’s just that Fu Zheng has always trusted Wen Liang’s work, and he rarely interfered in the development of MQ in the past, giving Wen Liang enough autonomy.
He was not in a hurry to ask about today's matter.
…
On the second day of filming, Chu Siyi and his team were indeed not late.
The scene set up yesterday has not been dismantled.
After Chu Siyi finished putting on makeup, styling, and changing into clothes, she could start shooting directly.
But this time there was another accident.
"Director Wen, please go check on the makeup artist." The assistant came running over to inform Wen Liang.
"What happened?" Wen Liang raised his head.
"Ms. Chu brought her own makeup artist, and it seems she had an argument with Ms. Tang over makeup and styling issues."
Wen Liang put down the magazine in his hand and walked towards the dressing room.
Seeing Wen Liang, Tang Shishi came out with an annoyed look on her face, "Aliang, you came just in time. Miss Chu brought her own makeup artist and created a messy makeup look. Go and see for yourself!"
Wen Liang walked in, and Wang Yan said with a smile, "Director Wen, let me introduce you. This is Siyi's makeup artist, Miss Mira. You should have heard of Miss Mira. She is the official makeup artist for the Miss World competition."
Tang Shishi rolled her eyes.
"Hello." Mira greeted Wen Liang in Chinese.
"Hello, Miss Mira." Wen Liang nodded at Mira, then looked at Wang Yan, "Director Wang, I understand that Miss Chu is used to using a familiar makeup artist, but why don't you follow the requirements for makeup and styling?"
"Director Wen, please don't be angry. Miss Mira said that the styling and makeup you gave her are not suitable for Siyi at all. Could it be that Miss Mira's design is not worthy of your clothes?"
Before Wen Liang could say anything, Tang Shishi couldn't help but stand up and shouted angrily, "Manager Wang, this isn't a question of sincerity or suitability at all! Miss Mira's makeup and styling are completely incompatible with the theme of today's shoot. How can it serve as an advertisement?"
Wang Yan chuckled. "Miss Tang, what you said is true. Isn't it all about fan base these days for advertising endorsements? Siyi's appeal is obvious. As long as she looks good, her fans will buy her. How much does her appearance have to do with it?"
Tang Shishi wanted to say more, but Wen Liang stopped him and said to Wang Yan, "Director Wang, I hope you understand that this is a matter of cooperation between the two parties! According to the contract, Ms. Chu should cooperate with us during the advertising shoot. You should also consult with us if you change your makeup and styling without authorization."
At this time, Chu Siyi suddenly stood up and said, "Aliang, I'm so sorry, I forgot to inform you, but I already mentioned this matter to Azheng yesterday, and he agreed."
Wen Liang was stunned.
She opened her mouth, but her throat felt dry and as if she had swallowed sand, and she couldn't speak.
Suddenly I was speechless.
To others, the argument he had just made seemed like a clown.
