Li Yishan thought for a while, realizing that he couldn't replace Lin Xiaoxiao, and sighed softly, "Then let Xiaochen go to another film crew."
A marginalized figure in a wealthy family, a minor director in the industry, actually dared to embarrass him.
He hadn't had anyone silence him in a long time. Lin Xiaoxiao, so what if she's from the wealthy Lin family? Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. If she dares to cause trouble in his circle, he won't let her off easy.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt a bit annoyed when she got back; she had been too carried away at the time.
But that scene instantly brought Lin Xiaoxiao back to her memories of being a humble working-class person before she transmigrated. Every day she had no personality or dignity, and was like a pawn that could be discarded at any time. No, she wasn't even a pawn; she was a cog in the machine that could keep running even if she was missing.
She hired all these employees with generous compensation.
But she couldn't avoid the fact that some people always thought they were superior, treating others like insignificant ants, trampling on them at will. She had tolerated it quite well before, letting those so-called "upper class" people trample on her. She abandoned her personality and dignity, just to earn a little bit of humiliation money and eke out a living in this world.
Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly realized that she could no longer return to the original scene. Just imagining it made her clench her fists and want to fight back.
Well, she'd already rebelled and made a scene, so Lin Xiaoxiao had her fill of venting, and of course, she had to accept the outcome.
"Weren't you going to film? Why are you back so soon?"
Staff at Feiyang Entertainment asked questions out of curiosity when the filming crew returned.
"Oh, there was a time when a celebrity asked the staff to help him with his luggage, and then Director Lin got angry."
The other people in the office quickly gathered around, "What's going on?! Tell us quickly."
So the person involved came forward and said, "Originally, we were filming Li Yichen carrying seven large suitcases downstairs by himself. But he just threw the suitcases down, took four or five assistants up the elevator, and had the staff carry them down the stairs for him. Then, in post-production, we edited it together to make it look like he took them down himself."
"Then what?"
"Everyone was carrying their gear, and I thought I had the least, so I put my things down to let him take them. But Director Lin just said to me, 'Do you not have long arms?' and told me to carry them myself. I have to say, although Director Lin was very fierce, he was incredibly cool."
Others present also commented, "He's not just handsome, he's absolutely stunning! Director Lin will be my idol from now on." He completely shut Li Yichen down. You wouldn't believe it if you weren't there; Li Yichen's arrogant gaze was really unsettling. Luckily, in the chaos, I kicked that guy, which made me feel better.
The office staff were like spoiled brats in a melon patch, gossiping excitedly. "Chaos? You guys even fought?!"
"Of course, but Li Yichen made the first move. He couldn't argue with Director Lin, so he tried to fight back. How could we let him get close to Director Lin? What a joke! He doesn't even know how many of us there are. In the blink of an eye, Li Yichen threw a left hook... If he had beaten Director Lin, we would have had no face to come back."
Secretary Zhao arrived at this time. Upon hearing the description, he rushed to check on Director Lin's condition. After discovering that Director Lin was not injured, he regained his composure and his expression became somewhat serious.
The Li Group is the major financial backer of the Y platform. Feiyang Entertainment is now blacklisted by the M platform and has also offended the Y platform, so it can be said that it is walking on thin ice.
Lin Xiaoxiao knew this, which is why she was a little dazed when she came back. But since it had already happened, she could only deal with it as it came.
"I'll handle this, you don't need to worry. Besides, who worries about their boss? Just do your jobs well and don't let me, your boss, take advantage of you. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up. Go get to work."
Lin Xiaoxiao's nonchalant tone did not dispel Secretary Zhao's worries; on the contrary, he was even more eager to do something for Feiyang Entertainment.
Secretary Zhao no longer thought about returning to Lin Ruizhe's side. He knew how Lin Xiaoxiao treated him. Although she was sometimes short-tempered, she never had the attitude of someone in a high position towards someone in a lower position. It was as if they were just doing a job. He also hoped that Lin Xiaoxiao could rely on her employees instead of always trying to find a solution on her own.
Lin Ruizhe has placed Lin Xiaoxiao on the opposite side of the M platform. Given time, he thinks Director Lin will definitely crush the other side. He still needs to maintain close contact with the people at headquarters so that he can pass on information to Director Lin when necessary. It's just a spy game, right? Feiyang Entertainment is not to be trifled with.
Although Lin Xiaoxiao said that, she wasn't really sure herself.
If Platform M is this shameless, Platform Y probably won't be much more ethical either. Lin Xiaoxiao had no idea what these people would do.
Even after the other party handed over full responsibility for the variety show to her, including the right to select all the guests, Lin Xiaoxiao was still a little confused. She had even clashed with the other party's son, yet they still fired him from the show and gave her the reins. Was this some kind of act of repaying evil with kindness? She couldn't quite believe it.
Fortunately, Y platform's counterattack didn't keep Lin Xiaoxiao waiting too long.
"Mr. Lin, the Z City TV station, which we had been in contact with, suddenly declined. Other TV stations that had previously expressed interest have also declined."
Lin Xiaoxiao finally understood what the other party was doing. M platform was a major financial backer of H City TV station and other TV stations. It was expected that the other party would blacklist Feiyang Entertainment and refuse to take on the fantasy romance drama "Asking the Heavens".
Lin Xiaoxiao had already thought of Y platform as the financial backer of Z City TV Station, which was H City TV Station's rival. However, she hadn't expected that other TV stations had also taken sides, clearly dividing into two separate entities.
The S+ fantasy romance drama on the M platform is to be broadcast on the exclusive drama slot of H City TV station, which has a huge viewership. If "Asking the Heavens" is only released online, it will obviously be overshadowed by the other party. Moreover, the only online platform that can be released online is Feiyang Film and Television, which does not have a large user base.
There's a hierarchy in the film and television industry: dramas on digital channels are considered superior, dramas on other TV stations are superior, and dramas that can be broadcast on TV are superior to online dramas. If a drama can be broadcast on a satellite TV channel, no matter which one, its status is at least more secure; it's considered a satellite drama.
Lin Xiaoxiao was still racking her brains for a solution when, unexpectedly, a member of the film crew knocked on the door and came in.
"Director Lin, I want to resign."
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. If he wanted to resign, he should go to HR. Why was he looking for her? She could only nod in agreement.
Unexpectedly, the employee didn't leave. Instead, he came up and bowed deeply, saying, "Director Lin, thank you for taking care of me during this time. I will never forget my time at Feiyang Entertainment. Don't worry, Director Lin, I will apologize to Li Yichen. He should be able to forgive Feiyang Entertainment since I'm leaving."
Lin Xiaoxiao then realized that this person was actually the staff member that Li Yichen had asked to carry her luggage that day.
"Is this why you want to resign?"
Yuan Bo couldn't help but nod, his eyes reddening.
