The assistant was originally a bit shorter than Yang ili, and being frail and small, she was easily knocked down when Yang ili blew at her. Yang ili got hurt again, with glass shards piercing her back, even bleeding.
The assistant hurriedly walked away in a panic, afraid of Yang ili’s slap.
Watching Yang ili leave the crew, everyone sighed in relief—but now, without a lead actress, how was this movie going to be shot? Everyone was silent.
"Director, if it really can’t work out, we should talk to the investors and ask for a new lead actress."
Hu Fen said at this ti, if this delay continued, it would be unbearable for everyone, and Director Wang Ming also nodded, walking with difficulty.
When the investors first invested, they specified that they wanted Yang ili to act. If Yang ili is replaced now, those people might withdraw their investnt, which would an a huge loss for the crew. But what else could be done?
"Didn’t we have a popular female star, Jiao Shui, who was going to participate? Later, they said she wasn’t coming. Should we ask her again?"
The assistant director said at this ti. The assistant director had a good relationship with Jiao Shui and had worked with her, believing Jiao Shui to be one of the rare good-tempered female stars.
Director Wang Ming directly shook his head with a bitter face upon hearing this: "That’s impossible, you know Jiao Shui’s character, after being rejected by us, she wouldn’t co back, especially as Yang ili’s substitute. If it really doesn’t work out, we should find a lower-tier female star, but she must have a good temper. If we delay any longer, our losses might be imnse."
The assistant director pondered silently upon hearing this.
Hu Feng lowered his head. Yang ili had been his idol, and he thought she had a good temperant, which was why he tried so hard to join this production. But upon arrival, his goddess seed ruined.
On that very day, Yang ili’s news hit the headlines again, with all netizens siding with her, saying that Yang ili suffered grievances on set, and everyone was condemning the "Half-life Charming" crew.
When Yang ili returned to the company, the company was very angry, not expecting her to walk away from this project because of her temper. The director had already said in person, either Yang ili leaves, or the film doesn’t get made.
Director Wang Ming was a famous director in the country, different from those small-ti directors, and the company higher-ups were certainly troubled.
"Couldn’t you bow your head to Director Wang Ming at that ti?"
Hearing the boss’s question, Yang ili felt even more incredulous, thinking she could complain upon returning to the company, only to find the company blaming her. For what reason?
"Boss, I’ve been wronged this ti, and they bullied . Otherwise, I would have shot the film well. I know the importance of my role."
Upon hearing Yang ili say this, the boss could only shake his head. Though the company certainly relied on Yang ili, there were other stars, and Yang ili had beco more arrogant lately.
It seed the company could no longer accommodate this "big Buddha" of Yang ili, but her contract wasn’t up yet. Although the incident was quite serious, Yang ili could still get so other good roles.
"Since you don’t want to take this project, I’ll see if the Xiao Group still wants you for that endorsent!"
Upon hearing this, Yang ili’s eyes widened in surprise. She never thought the boss would actually try to get her that endorsent. The Xiao Group, a well-renowned group nationally—if she could nab a second-generation rich heir, wouldn’t her star journey be smoother?
"Thank you so much, boss. I’ll await your good news."
Watching Yang ili leave, the boss felt quite troubled, fearing that the Xiao Group wouldn’t be easy to negotiate with but hoping to fight for it to the best of his ability.
Xu Ke was working overti at the company when the secretary ca with a call, saying it was from Xinran Company, which is an entertainnt company.
"President, they ntioned sothing about endorsents. Should you ask further?"
Xu Ke took the call; on the other end, the person from Xinran said, "Hello, Mr. Xu, we are from Xinran Company. We hope to discuss your recent endorsent, as our company’s Yang ili is willing to be your spokesperson. May we know what your appearance fee is?"
The person from Xinran spoke as if offering Xu Ke a chance.
The person from Xinran seed very confident, thinking Xu Ke would definitely agree, with no concern, but Xu Ke’s response stunned them.
"Sorry, we already have a spokesperson, so we don’t need another. As for your Yang ili, we definitely wouldn’t dare use her."
After Xu Ke finished speaking, he hung up the phone, leaving the person from Xinran seething with anger, as they had humbled themselves to request an endorsent from the Xiao Group only to find the Xiao Group so high-handed.
Secretary Zhou chuckled after Xu Ke hung up, not knowing what the boss found amusing, thinking it was sothing good.
"Boss, does this an our animation’s progress can quicken?"
Hearing Secretary Zhou’s question, Xu Ke raised his head: "It’s not about the copyright issue, it’s that Xinran’s Yang ili wanted to shoot our endorsent, so I refused her."
ntioning Yang ili, Secretary Zhou spewed coffee everywhere, realizing Yang ili truly embodied a drama queen, swamped in scandals and even fired from the crew.
Everyone thought it was over, but the next day, Xinran’s boss inford Yang ili of the events, and Yang ili was enraged. She never expected to be refused by such a company; it was intolerable.
Then, learning the location of the Xiao Group’s branch, she took her assistant and went ahead. The receptionist was thrilled to see Yang ili since she was a fan.
"ili, is it really you? Are you here to endorse our company’s products? That’s wonderful! I’ve admired you for so long. Could I get your autograph?"
The receptionist’s eyes sparkled as she pulled out her notebook and pen, waiting for Yang ili’s signature, but Yang ili slowly removed her glasses and, with a disdainful look, said to the receptionist.
"Your small-ti organization dares to ask for my autograph? Who do you think you are? Arrange for to et your president imdiately!"
The receptionist, hearing this, was particularly uncertain. Was this the Yang ili as rumored online?
Wasn’t Yang ili supposed to be particularly gentle? Why was the current Yang ili imdiately insulting people?
