"Well, let's end this matter here. You two should learn a lesson. Next time something like this happens, I won't be so nice."
"I see."
"Yeah." Chu Cheng responded and then hung up the phone.
Zhou Chengfeng looked at the phone in his hand and sighed. What he feared the most was that his artists had connections with the company's top management. Unexpectedly, despite all his precautions, he still got caught by Ji Qingzhou. If he had known that Ji Qingzhou would be involved with Chu Cheng, Zhou Chengfeng felt that he probably would not have signed him. Otherwise, who could stand being watched by the boss?
Chen Jiyuan took a week off before returning to the filming site. The wound on his face was not completely healed, but it was much lighter. With the powder covering it, it was basically invisible. But when Chen Jiyuan looked at himself in the mirror, he always thought of that incident, how he was beaten up in public by Chu Cheng, and how he apologized afterward and was humiliated by Chu Cheng. When he thought of this, and looked at other people, he always felt that they were talking about him behind his back, mocking him, and laughing at him for making a fool of himself.
Even when the makeup artist was helping him apply foundation and putting more powder on his wounds, Chen Jiyuan could sensitively feel that the makeup artist was deliberately using this method to humiliate him. He kicked the makeup artist hard and shouted that he wanted to change the makeup artist.
Zhang Ai, the makeup team leader, had no idea what to do with this giant Buddha. Her makeup artists were afraid to do his makeup, and they all begged Zhang Ai not to assign them to the job. Finally, Zhang Ai thought of Zhao Xin, "Haven't you always wanted to do the male lead's makeup? Just go ahead."
Zhao Xin had been sullen these days because she was replaced by Lulu. She didn't put on makeup properly for Liu Xu and the second male lead, and was punished by Zhang Ai to sit on the bench for several days. When she heard Zhang Ai asking her to put on makeup for Chen Jiyuan, she was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
Chen Jiyuan is famous for his bad temper. He first threw hot water on Lulu and then kicked the current makeup artist. However, Chen Jiyuan is indeed the most famous person in the crew. Zhao Xin thought about it for a long time and finally felt that she couldn't give up this opportunity. She needs to do makeup for the male lead. She can't always do makeup for supporting roles. Doing makeup for supporting roles has no future. Only by doing makeup for the protagonist and having her own masterpiece, she will become a well-known makeup artist in the future and make a name for herself.
Zhao Xin comforted herself, thinking that maybe it was because Lulu and the others didn't know how to talk and were clumsy, which made Chen Jiyuan unhappy. She was replaced, and as long as she put on makeup for Chen Jiyuan properly, maybe nothing would happen.
At this time, she had completely forgotten what her character was like. Like all overly conceited and stubborn people, she only fantasized about what if? She fantasized that she was the exception and agreed to Zhang Ai directly.
Zhang Ai breathed a sigh of relief and arranged for her to go over.
When Chen Jiyuan saw Zhao Xin, he was so angry that he threw the things on the dressing table at her. He felt angry and humiliated. What was this? Using someone Ji Qingzhou didn't want to put on makeup for himself? Did he look down on him? Or did he think that he was only worthy of using things and people Ji Qingzhou didn't want.
He picked up something on the dressing table and threw it at Zhao Xin, "Get out!"
Zhao Xin was so scared that she didn't care about the pain of being hit by the heavy object, and ran out of the door on the spot. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she reached the stairs. She stood at the stairs and noticed that the place where Chen Jiyuan had just hit her with something began to hurt. She stretched out her hand to rub it, feeling uncomfortable. When she thought that she didn't even enter the door, she was hit so hard several times, she felt even more wronged.
She heard Lulu's hearty laughter coming from the door that was not closed tightly. She said in a brisk tone, "Isn't it interesting? I laugh every time I watch this video. It really makes me laugh to death. How can this cat be so stupid? Hahahaha. Hey, brother Ji, don't laugh. How can I put on makeup if you laugh?"
Zhao Xin listened and felt more and more aggrieved. She was the first one to put on Ji Qingzhou's makeup. She had always been in charge. Why did she have to change Lulu? What was so good about Lulu? Lulu should be the one to put on Chen Jiyuan's makeup. Zhao Xin thought about it and her nose was sore. She almost cried.
In the end, Zhang Ai had no choice but to coordinate with Chen Jiyuan's agent Zhang Hui to find a new makeup artist. Zhang Hui advised Chen Jiyuan, "Don't take that matter too seriously. If you are like this, how can we shoot this drama? How will the crew see you?"
"Don't they look at me like I'm ugly now?"
"That's not the case." Zhang Hui didn't understand why he was so stubborn. "Chu Cheng's status is there, no one here can afford to offend him, so no one will take it seriously. Besides, he didn't just attack you, he also attacked the assistant director. Look, the assistant director is still working and making arrangements as usual, isn't he?"
"Did the assistant director stand there in the rain? Did he stand there like a clown for everyone else to watch and amuse themselves?"
"No one is looking at you. You are the biggest star in this crew. Who would dare to look at you? And who would be so blind as to look at you?"
Chen Jiyuan didn't listen at all. He had only one thought in his mind, "I don't want to film this drama anymore. I want to quit the crew."
Zhang Hui felt a headache when he heard this. "Jiyuan, please be quiet, okay? If the money is real, Chu Cheng is really going to cut off your IP adaptation. This may be your last IP adaptation. I'm still worrying about what to do, and you're thinking about refusing to perform."
"It's not a big IP anyway, just a web drama."
"What about the penalty? If you go on strike, it will be our own problem. You will have to pay the penalty, do you know that?"
