Ling Hu smiled.
He thought Zhou Yiyang was a really interesting person.
Well, interesting, he rarely describes a man like this, but he used it twice today.
"Since Mr. Zhou has spoken, I'll be frank! The casting change for 'Legend of Yunlong' is almost certain. After what happened to Luo Chen, it's understandable that the producers would change the actor. And maybe doing so will even win the favor of netizens!"
Luo Chen, the person involved, couldn't help but feel sad when he heard these words. But after calming down and thinking about it, he also knew that this was the truth.
Even if it is finally clarified, for those netizens who are enjoying the online carnival now, the truth is no longer important.
While they were still discussing countermeasures, Hailang Entertainment had already released a statement:
To all fans of "Legend of Yunlong":
I'm sorry everyone. Because our company has terminated the contract with artist Luo Chen, it has caused irreversible harm to the work, the crew of "Legend of Yunlong", and the fans who care about "Legend of Yunlong".
After consultation between our company and the investors of "Legend of Yunlong", it was decided that Luo Chen is no longer suitable to play the role of the male lead Mu Yun.
Therefore, we hereby declare that we will negotiate to peacefully terminate the contract with Luo Chen, an artist under Yi Yang Entertainment.
For more updates, please follow the official Weibo.
Bai Yangyu saw this Weibo post almost immediately. He had no choice but to interrupt the conversation between Zhou Yiyang and Ling Hu and quickly put his phone in the center of the desk.
"They're really putting us on the spot! Although they never mentioned the truth of the scandal, they insisted that it had affected 'Legend of the Cloud Dragon'. In the end, they even pretended to make concessions and asked us to terminate the contract peacefully. I think they're just hoping that we'll initiate the termination!"
"Let's file a lawsuit!" Zhou Yiyang said lightly. Then, under everyone's surprised gaze, he expressed his thoughts: "To be honest, after this incident, I really don't feel comfortable leaving Luo Chen on the set of 'Legend of Yunlong'. Who knows what kind of trouble they'll get into over there. But we can terminate the contract, but they must pay the compensation they owe."
"This..." Luo Chen was stunned. He could still get the money? He remembered that according to his contract, they had to pay a lot of money, right? "Will they agree? The people at Hailang Entertainment are not stupid!"
"If we can't produce evidence, they naturally won't agree." Zhou Yiyang smiled slightly, then glanced at Ling Hu. "But now we have it, so Hailang Entertainment will naturally agree. After all, for them, this isn't just to smear you and the company. What they really want to do is replace the actors in 'The Legend of Yunlong'. Compared to the subsequent profits after the TV series airs, the liquidated damages you'll pay are nothing. If they don't agree, we can still bite back and sue them for defamation!"
"Brother Yang, does that mean I have to leave "Legend of Yunlong"? " Luo Chen was not reluctant to leave the crew, but as an artist who was on the rise, he was still very sad to lose such a huge resource as "Legend of Yunlong".
Moreover, after this incident, even if it is finally clarified, I guess no good scripts will come to me on their own initiative.
At this time, Zhou Yiyang smiled and said, "I know it's normal for you to feel sad about losing such a good resource. But don't worry, since I signed you, I won't let you go without a film. In fact, there is still a role in "Ode to Joy" that has not been decided yet, and it was originally reserved for you."
"Really?" Luo Chen was very surprised. Zhou Yiyang had never mentioned this to him.
"Before you joined the company, didn't you hint that you wanted to be in Ode to Joy? Naturally, I reserved a spot for you. I originally wanted to see if you would be free when it came time to film his scenes. Now it seems like it was really God's will." Zhou Yiyang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou. What's the name of that character?" Luo Chen was quite touched. Although the configuration of "Ode to Joy" was far inferior to that of "Legend of Yunlong", it was already a good resource for Luo Chen at the moment.
"The character's name is Zhao Qiping. As for the plot related to him, we can talk about it when we have time."
"Then let's get back to the topic we started with. Mr. Ling Hu, what exactly do you want from me?"
"Before we talk about that," Ling Hu raised the corner of his mouth and laughed, "I think we should talk about that video first! Mr. Zhou, I believe you should be very interested in this video."
"Well, it's okay." Zhou Yiyang smiled and then said, "Then tell me?"
"This video was probably taken half a month ago when we were having dinner together after filming." Ling Hu glanced at Luo Chen. After Luo Chen nodded, he continued:
"Luo Chen and I did drink that time. However, I can hold my liquor quite well. As for Luo Chen, he wasn't so good. He was really drunk."
Luo Chen hummed awkwardly and said with a red face, "I don't like drinking to begin with. Who knew you were all toasting last time?"
"You could have asked your assistant to hold back the drinking, but who knew you, such a fool, would drink all of it?" Ling Hu recalled what happened that day, and couldn't help but curl his lips. "After he finished drinking, he told me he felt a little dizzy, so I told him, let's go get some fresh air, it would make us feel better. By the way, did your agent come out with him later?"
Luo Chen nodded. Although he was unwilling to face the reality, he now knew that the agent he trusted so much had never actually considered him a friend.
"It seems that he must have filmed the video. He probably didn't expect to film this video at the beginning. Of course, none of this matters anymore."
Ling Hu shrugged and continued to recall, "We walked to that alley, and then Luo Chen just vomited. Yes, right in front of me, right at my feet. Luckily, I wasn't wearing my limited edition sneakers that day."
At this time, Luo Chen's face was as red as a crayfish. If he didn't have to explain it clearly to Zhou Yiyang, he would have wanted to cover Ling Hu's mouth directly.
"I was wondering how much Luo Chen hated me, that he wanted to vomit just by looking at me. But that part was edited out. Then, seeing how miserable he was, I hugged him and patted his back to make him feel better. Isn't that normal for friends to do this?
Luo Chen finally came to his senses after vomiting, and when he found him in my arms, he probably thought I had done something and ran away in fright. So netizens' imaginations are really different."
