Chapter 1350 A Blessing In Disguise
Lin Che looked at the people outside as Xue Yang headed in for his treatment.
The doctor cleaned his wounds quickly. Seeing their professionalism, they were indeed more capable than the others previously.
Lin Che relaxed a little as she watched the bystanders. She walked over and asked, “Is Ah Bi alright?”
The man smiled at her and shook his head. “She’s better than you think.”
Lin Che said, “Alright, do send my regards. Let her know that we all miss her very much. We also hope all is well and we’ll wait for her. She’ll always be our friend. No matter when we meet her, we’ll still be as close as before.”
The man laughed a little. “I’ll relay the message.”
“Please also thank her for doing everything for Xue Yang this time around.”
“It was something she was willing to do.”
Lin Che smiled and did not add on.
It did not matter if she was willing to appear or not. Lin Che believed that her thoughts were still with them. She was not insisting on Ah Bi showing up. She could understand Ah Bi’s feelings of helplessness and her thoughts. She must be doing her best in helping Xue Yang.
The doctor only came out when Xue Yang’s wounds were cleaned thoroughly.
“We’ve cleaned the wounds thoroughly. In this way, there are fewer chances of deformation when the wounds heal. However, there will still be scars.” The doctor said.
Lin Che thanked the doctor. “As long as the best has been done, we’ll accept everything.”
She headed in to take a look at Xue Yang.
Xue Yang looked calm.
He said, “Will the scars affect anything?”
Lin Che said, “Scars are a man’s medal count. It doesn’t matter. It won’t affect anything too much.”
Deep down, Xue Yang knew of artists who disappeared from the scene because of small issues, especially scars. Although they did not look too serious, they were nothing to the common man but to some artists, they were fatal.
For example, you would not be endorsing some products after having some scars. You may also lose some roles because of your scars. The scars on-screen could impact the audience’s feelings. As such, you would not be suited for some roles. Some small scars may even appear to be more serious on screens and some facial expressions would definitely be affected.
To an artist, having a commercial value was crucial. Without commercial value, the artist would slowly disappear from the scene.
Xue Yang knew it all.
Lin Che looked at him. “Don’t let your thoughts run wild, silly. You know we won’t give up on any of our artists. Even if you have scars, we can work in another direction. Anyway, you’re coming of age and should make a switch. We won’t give up on you so, recover in peace. Trust us.”
Xue Yang looked at Lin Che and used his might to nod his head.
It was naturally different with Lin Che.
He said, “I understand.”
Lin Che said, “Now, the movie producers are discussing compensation.”
Xue Yang said, “Just go according to the insurance for compensation. I don’t need a lot of it.”
If the compensation went according to the insurance, that would mean a smaller amount of money. That would make the production team very happy as they would not need to pay.
Lin Che said, “Alright, we’ll respect your wishes.”
Xue Yang said, “Anyway, everyone is somehow responsible for this problem. Moreover, having millions of dollars as compensation is of no use to me.”
Lin Che nodded. Xue Yang was mature in his thinking.
He was someone with experience now. In the entertainment industry, he has seen and learned a lot.
The production was very happy when they heard that he did not want much for compensation. They sent someone over to ask if he had any special requests.
At the same time, the crew also apologized to Lin Che.
“I’m very sorry for my previous suspicions about you. You guys are actually a great team. You’re able to be on close terms and magnanimous with one another. Moreover, you’re a very generous boss. Getting him to stay here and at your own expense, not from the insurance company. This is a very expensive place.”
Lin Che shrugged.
Actually, she wasn’t the one paying, but there was not a need to explain so much to them.
The production team said, “Oh yes if he recovers fast, we hope he can still be part of us.”
“Is that so? Is he still suited for the role?”
“Actually the scar doesn’t affect much for our movie. Also, the director likes him a lot. He thinks he’s a dedicated actor who doesn’t do things on impulse and has a great fighting spirit. Moreover, you guys are a great team. Working with you guys also makes us happy. Hence, we’ve decided to add in some elements for him, to allow the usage of his scars.”
Lin Che brightened up when she heard that. “Really? That will be great!”
She went in quickly and shared the news with Xue Yang.
Xue Yang said, “So they’ll continue using me? That’s great. I was still thinking I could be fired.”
Lin Che replied, “A good person will always have good karma.”
Xue Yang had a smile on his face. “Sister Che, I’m recovering well here. Maybe I don’t even need a few days. It’s superficial wounds anyway. You don’t have to worry about me here. I know you’re busy. You better go back.”
Lin Che sighed and patted his shoulder. “Alright, stay strong and keep fighting. The Oscars are within your reach.”
Xue Yang laughed coyly.
The next day, Lin Che left and returned home.
After a whole day of traveling to B City, she did not stop her tracks and went over to the filming location.
The staff were preparing for the new drama and upon seeing Lin Che’s return, they felt at ease.
“Sister Che, you’re back just in time. Word just got in about this novel. They’ve sold the rights to Glorious Star and now we can’t do this TV drama. Look, what should we do?”
“Something wrong with the rights?”
“Yes. We didn’t think there would be problems.” The crew was feeling down. They had already prepared to start and now there was a problem with the copyrights.
Lin Che put a finger to her chin. “I don’t believe the rights have been sold to them. There must be a problem somewhere in between. Even if there’s not a problem, we’ve already started. I’ll not let them screw this TV drama up that easily.”
Hearing Lin Che’s words, the staff added, “That’s right. Glorious Star is doing this on purpose. They’re using underhand means to get in our way.”
For some novels, there would be a quick want for success when the rights are being put up for sale. Whoever they got sold to was unclear, especially when the author was doing the same on the Internet. The author may not even know that the rights to his novel have already been sold.
This would result in some copyright issues for some novels.
Now, Glorious Star was making use of this issue and had come knocking on their door.
