462 Kicking You Out Isn’t An Injustice

“Su Youlan does have a lot of connections in the film industry,” Yicheng said. “I’ve asked around. Su Youlan went through Director Liang Chengbing and the CEO of Qicheng Films. They’re all from a small circle, and Li Mingguan is a part of their circle, so Li Mingguan gave them face and used Su Youlan. However, there was no official announcement before the audition. The audition is basically just a formality.”

“I just wanted to ask you. Do you only want the role of the female reporter, or are you also looking at a few other options?” Yicheng said, “Looking at the situation, the small circles in the film industry are very serious. They are much more tighter than in the television industry.”

They were very popular in the television industry. As long as they could handle the series and had good results, there would be a lot of good scripts for you to choose from.

However, the film industry was not just about this, but also about the social circles.

A movie didn’t just rely on one person to carry the box office.

It was rare for an audience to go to a cinema just for a person.

There were some in the circle, but very few.

In such a position, the script was naturally up to the actors to choose.

No capital could shake it.

However, most of the time, they relied on connections and capital.

...

The length of a movie was no more than two hours. During shooting, they would repeatedly ponder and shoot a scene, which could be many more times than in a TV series.

The requirements for the actor’s acting skills were high, but on the other hand, the director could repeatedly talk to the actor about the same scene and the same shot until the actor’s performance was satisfactory.

Even if Su Youlan’s acting skills weren’t as good as Jiang Xun’s, they weren’t bad.

Even if Su Youlan’s audition results weren’t as good as Jiang Xun’s, they didn’t have to choose Jiang Xun.

“If you have another role that you’re willing to play, then I’ll talk to them again. If you’ve decided on the role of the female reporter, then I’ll go to Li Mingguan’s side and fight it out.” Yicheng gritted his teeth. “I’ll definitely think of a way to get you the role.”

It was rare for Jiang Xun to want to play this role, so he would definitely find a way to help her get it.

If he could not get it, it was because he was useless and not qualified to be Jiang Xun’s manager.

This was because he didn’t even know that the movie “Under The Starry Sky” was in preparation until he found out when Haolun told him.

Yicheng had always felt that he had not done his job well, and he was very angry.

I can’t be a burden to Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun flipped through the script. “I only want to play the role of a female reporter, but Brother Wang, you don’t have to worry about it. It’s fine if I can’t play it. It’s not like I’m counting on this movie.”

...

Yicheng didn’t say anything and hung up the phone. He thought about it and told Mufeng.

“Got it.” Mufeng hung up the phone and contacted Chengnan. “I’ve decided which investor to get rid of.”

Chengnan was speechless.

You speak as if you’re a tyrant.

“Let’s just squeeze out Qicheng Films.” Mufeng said.

Chengnan hesitated for a long time, but he still couldn’t overcome his curiosity. He asked, “May I ask why you chose Qicheng Films?”

Qicheng Films was not a small company.

Of course, it was not a small company’s turn to invest in this film.

“Because they helped Su Youlan pull strings and stole Jiang Xun’s role,” Mufeng said with absolute certainty.

Chengnan: “…”

Wait, hadn’t they not discussed about Jiang Xun’s role yet?

...

Although he was also on Jiang Xun’s side, he had to say that Mufeng’s words were really overbearing!

“I’ll get it done right away,” Chengnan immediately said, while mourning for Qicheng Films.

You can help anyone but you’d better not help Su Youlan.

That’s not right. You can help someone but you’d better not help someone who is eyeing the same role as Jiang Xun?

This meant that there is a problem with your eyes.

Since there is a problem with your eyes, kicking you out isn’t an injustice.

Mufeng came out of the study room and turned to the kitchen. After a while, he came out with a bowl of fruit.

Jiang Xun was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, reading her script in boredom.

Other than the role of the female reporter, no other role could pique her interest.

However, she also knew her own situation, so she didn’t want to make things difficult for Yicheng and make him insist on getting the role.

Mufeng passed the fruits to Jiang Xun and sat beside her. “Qin Yang Film and Television is preparing to invest in this movie.”

...

“Because of me?” Jiang Xun said.

Mufeng did not deny it. “It’s not to let you join the production team. It’s to let you have a fair chance to compete.”

Jiang Xun held her chin and asked Mufeng with a smile, “Did Brother Wang tell you?”

Mufeng: “…”

He was thinking about how to explain it to make it seem reasonable when he heard Jiang Xun say, “Stop pretending. I might not have known at first, but it’s been so long, and I’m not stupid. How could I not see it?”

“Brother Wang was arranged by you from the start, right?” Jiang Xun said with a smile, “Qin Yang is the major shareholder of Shanpin Media. You arranged for Brother Wang to take care of me from the beginning. No matter how popular I was at Shanpin, it wasn’t to the extent that the general manager, Brother Wang, would personally take care of me.”

“But I didn’t know about your relationship with Shanpin Media at that time. Now that I know, it makes sense.” Jiang Xun rested her chin on her hand and subconsciously flicked her cheeks with her fingertips, making them look extremely bouncy. “Since you’re the one who arranged for Brother Wang to do this, Brother Wang will definitely let you know if there are any difficulties in my work.”

Mufeng knew that with Jiang Xun’s intelligence, he would not be able to hide it from her.

However, looking at Jiang Xun’s reaction, Mufeng asked with some hesitation, “You’re not angry?”

“Why should I be angry?” Jiang Xun instead said in confusion, “You’ve never interfered with my work. Otherwise, how could I have played a supporting role before? And how did Li Guangshu manage to cut my scenes? And why would the netizens suspect that we’re a contract couple?”

“You just asked Brother Wang to look after me,” Jiang Xun said. “To be honest, if it wasn’t for Brother Wang’s care at the beginning, I wouldn’t have been able to develop so smoothly. Starting from the Shanpin, because of Brother Wang, I got a lot of resources there. I can’t scold you for lying to me, all while receiving benefits from you, can I?”

...

While Mufeng heaved a sigh of relief, he could not help but admire Jiang Xun’s rationality.

She had already analyzed these things herself and did not need him to explain at all.

“As for the character this time…” Jiang Xun said.

Mufeng’s heart tensed up again.

Jiang Xun said, “Other people can use their connections, so why can’t I? It’s just a competition of connections, and it’s also a fair competition.” Jiang Xun was very flexible. “Besides, if I have a backer but I don’t use it, aren’t I stupid?”

Mufeng completely relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief.
