Upon hearing this, even the director felt a chill.
He felt his heart condition was about to flare up—even though he didn't have a heart condition.
"Nan Wan, we've already rehearsed, and there are only three or four hours until the live broadcast tonight. Just rehearse this part well, and we'll call it a day, okay?" The director discussed with Nan Wan in a kind and gentle tone.
Nan Wan kicked off her shoes and said, "I said I'm not recording anymore, didn't you hear me?"
After saying that, Nan Wan walked out.
Seeing that she wouldn't listen to reason, the director hardened his tone and said, "Nan Wan, if you breach the contract now, you'll have to pay five times the penalty!"
Nanwan never stopped walking.
The director looked at Nan Wan's agent.
The agent, used to this, said calmly, "Our company's legal department will discuss the breach of contract penalty with you. You should find someone to make up the difference as soon as possible, and ask the other senior female assistants for help. I don't think the loss will be too great."
Not only did they take it for granted, they even came up with a solution for the director.
The director only felt a headache, toothache, and chest pain.
It hurts all over.
"Let the other groups rehearse first." The director waved his hand, signaling the others to continue rehearsing.
We can't stop the entire rehearsal just because of Nan Wan.
The stage manager was getting anxious and approached the director, "Director, we're missing one of our support seniors, what are we going to do?"
The director lit a cigarette, took a drag, and said, "We'll ask Shixi later if she has time to learn another dance."
The stage manager hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"What's wrong?" the director asked, looking at him.
"There's no time for makeup and hair either. 'Greed' is a sexy style, and 'Falling Leaves' is a classical dance. Not only do we need to change clothes, but we also need to change makeup and styling." The stage director shook his head as he calculated the time.
"Should we put these two groups at the beginning and the end?" the director asked.
The stage manager shook his head. "In that case, the time is too tight."
The director said, "Then let's cancel the assistant senior for this group and have this group change their choreography at the last minute."
The stage manager sighed, "This is the only way."
Upon hearing the news brought back by the stage director, the trainees in the "Falling Leaves" group were almost in tears.
They worked day and night to rehearse this dance, but were stood up just before the performance.
Who could bear such injustice?
They were worried that if they found a female senior student to help them at the last minute, and the work didn't go well, all their hard work this week would be wasted.
But who would have thought that without the help of the senior students, they would have to change their movements again.
It's like preparing for a middle school math exam all night, only to have the teacher suddenly say, "We're going to have a high school math exam" before the test papers are handed out.
My mental state completely collapsed.
With the final so close, no one wanted to give up.
Pei Kai was in the "Fallen Leaves" group. He looked at his teammates, unable to say anything else to comfort them, and looked to Shi Xi for help.
"Mentor Shi Xi, can you help me?" Pei Kai asked Shi Xi for help.
It wasn't to beg for help.
Instead, Shi Xi was shorter than him, so he looked down at Shi Xi.
Shi Xi said with difficulty, "I learn to dance quickly, but I don't have enough time for makeup and styling! Your group is doing classical dance, and there isn't enough time to change clothes, hairstyles, and makeup."
Pei Kai lowered his eyes.
"By the way, I remember Mu Zhaozhao studied classical dance, so her dance skills should be pretty good." Shi Xi and Mu Zhaozhao were in the same production team, so she knew her quite well. "I'll go ask her."
Pei Kai said, "I'll go with you!"
Shi Xi went to find Mu Zhaozhao and happened to see Mu Zhaozhao looking conflicted backstage.
Ning Yu said from the side, "You have a background in classical dance, so go to the director and recommend yourself. He will agree."
Mu Zhaozhao hesitated, "But I've never performed on such a big stage before..."
