Chapter 469: Using Brother Ye Sans Money To Slap People In The Face

Feng Bo was the one who worked on the contract with Guang Yuan. Although most of the movies directed by Feng Bo were not profitable, he had a good reputation in the industry.

Besides, Red Sun had gotten a lot of awards at home and abroad, so many people were looking towards the adaptation.

Guang Yuans team had helped him get the audition opportunity. Feng Bo had turned down a few famous actors as well and picked Guang Yuan in the end.

Little did Feng Bo expect that when Guang Yuan b.u.mped into Ye San at the setting yesterday, he was so furious that he went away from the setting in anger.

Initially, Feng Bo thought Guang Yuan would not quit. After all, everyone knew about the audition, and if he really quit, it would leave a high impact on his reputation.

He wants to quit? Thats fine with me. After all, I think hes overpaid as well, Fu Zhi replied after she took a sip from the cup of milk, You now go and find another actor whos more qualified than him.

Are you sure about that? Just because he said something bad about Ye s.h.i.+yun? Feng Bo asked.

Well, honestly, I dont deny Guang Yuans claim, but at the moment I dont have a solution to Ye s.h.i.+yuns acting problem, so the optimal solution right now is to get rid of the person who raised the problem, Fu Zhi said matter-of-factly, stunning Feng Bo.

He felt he had underestimated the ability of a rich high school girl. He also felt he was too naive.

He should not have had any expectations on Fu Zhi. There was no way she would lower herself to beg Guang Yuan.

To join our movie, the actor has to be very tough. Besides, were short of time. Its difficult to find a hardworking actor, not to mention that most of the well-known actors are pretty busy right now. They might not be able to join our movie, Feng Bo said, Also, Guang Yuan posted something on Weibo today. Although he didnt mention it explicitly, everyone knows that hes talking about Ye s.h.i.+yun. Many of his fans know that hes going to take part in Red Sun and they all feel Ye s.h.i.+yun doesnt deserve to play a role in the movie. If Guang Yuan doesnt show up at the launching event, the probability of Ye s.h.i.+yun getting attacked on the internet is 100%.

Fu Zhi fell silent as anger and frustration began to set in.

After a short while, she said, her voice cold and indifferent, Help me to make an appointment with Guang Yuan. Ask him to come and meet me at the coffee shop this afternoon.

Feng Bo nodded profusely, Okay! Leave it to me!

Then, Fu Zhi hung up the call.

Xiao Bai, who was sitting in front of Fu Zhi, heard her conversation with Feng Bo and he was angry about what Feng Bo had said.

So what with a poker face, huh? Hes n.o.body to you, so why do you have to care if he has a poker face or not?

That said, as an elite agent, he would not allow himself to lose his temper in front of the public. He pulled out his phone and took a look at Guang Yuans Weibo.

He was not that angry at all if he did not look at it, but he nearly lost his cool when he saw the post that Guang Yuan had posted on his Weibo.

[I cant stand it anymore, so although I know many people will disagree with me, I still have to say it out loud. It occurs to me that many people cannot differentiate between impa.s.siveness and resting b*tch face. Youre one of the highest paid actors in our country, yet you refuse to make any expression because youre afraid that you would look ugly. Then, by that logic, should we all kill ourselves right now since we are afraid of death?]

Xiao Bai then looked at the comment section.

[Whats wrong? Did someone bully you?]

[I thought youre going to take part in the making of Red Sun? Did something happen?]

[Impa.s.siveness? Resting b*tch face? What? Are you talking about Ye s.h.i.+yun? Im not a fan of both, but I smell something fishy!]

[Are you sure about that, mister? Your entire Weibo is filled with Ye s.h.i.+yuns stuff and you said youre not his fans? Ye s.h.i.+yun is the worst actor Ive ever seen and I just dont think hes worthy of his pay at all. Someone finally has the gut to step forward and criticize him today, and Im so happy about it!]

[Is Ye s.h.i.+yun really going to play a role in Red Sun too? What the h.e.l.l is Sister Zhi thinking? Does she want her first movie to fail?]

It was without a doubt that Ye s.h.i.+yun had a lot of fans, but for a big-budget film like Red Sun, the contribution of his fans is very minimal.

Feng Bo had told Fu Zhi about the consequences of choosing Ye s.h.i.+yun. After all, there are a lot of people in the entertainment industry who wanted to pull Ye s.h.i.+yun down from his throne.

Xiao Bai shook his head disappointingly after he read Guang Yuans Weibo. Before Guang Yuan became an actor, hes a singer. Hes known for writing raps with a sarcastic tone and according to what Ive heard, he has a bad temper. However, he doesnt do well as a singer, so he becomes an actor instead. Anyway, I might need some time to communicate with his team to delete the post on Weibo.

Of course, things would be different if Guang Yuans idol, Addiction, stepped forward and said something. However, Addiction had gone off the grid for many years, so Xiao Bai did not see the need to tell Fu Zhi about her.

Feng Bo sent Fu Zhi a message and told her that Guang Yuan would be coming to the coffee shop later.

Fu Zhi remembered that Guang Yuan came from a humble family and he needed a lot of money.

But, Xiao Bai continued, Do you know the Mu Corporation? Before Guang Yuan published the post on his Weibo today, they privately promised that they would tailor-make a big movie with Guang Yuan as the central figure. They also invited Ye s.h.i.+yun, but I didnt let him go.

Fu Zhi knew how terrible the financial status of the Mu Corporation was right now. The more money they invested, the greater the chance for their movie to be dead in the water.

However, since Guang Yuan decided to cooperate with them, this could only mean one thingThe Mu Corporation had overcome their financial crisis.

Fu Zhi checked on the internet and she found out that it was the Wu Family that saved the Mu Corporation from the fire pit.

Fu Zhi squinted her eyes as a glint crossed her eyes. Just when she was about to say something, the door of the coffee shop was pushed open and Mu Chenxi appeared with two men with black masks.

There was a wide grin on Mu Chenxis face right now and she looked like she was in a good mood. When she saw Xiao Bai and Fu Zhi, she approached them like a peac.o.c.k with open feathers and said, Im so sorry, I was there with Guang Yuan when Feng Bo texted him. Initially, he cannot come to see you since I have to finalize the contract with Guang Yuan this afternoon, but I thought were schoolmates and since youre so sincere to meet him, I figured that maybe I should bring him to this coffee shop to finalize the contract as well as to see you.

The only reason Mu Chenxi brought Guang Yuan here was to humiliate Fu Zhi. Fu Zhi had to admit that Mu Chenxi was pretty effective. The Mu Corporation had only received the fund from the Wu Family this morning, and she had already made contact with Guang Yuan.

Fu Zhi looked at Mu Chenxi coldly and raised her brows, So That means you guys havent signed the contract yet?

Were going to sign it now. Oh, since youre here, perhaps you can be our witness. Im sure you wont say no, right? Mu Chenxi continued to mock Fu Zhi, But honestly, I still dont understand why you want to hire Ye s.h.i.+yun. Acting in a movie is not an easy feat and Ye s.h.i.+yun just isnt cut out for the job. Look at those negative comments about him on the internet. With him in the leading role, Im sure that your movie will fail.

Xiao Bai scoffed inwardly. Mu Chenxi was someone who would kick down the ladder if youre no longer useful to her. He remembered that she came to Star Maker several days ago and begged Ye s.h.i.+yun to cooperate with her in a movie.

Mu Chenxi did not know the thought in Xiao Bais mind. Just when she was about to pat Fu Zhis shoulder, a fair-looking hand appeared and grabbed her wrist.

You want me to be your witness? Sure, lets do it, Fu Zhi said. However, she did not look at Mu Chenxi. Instead, she had been looking at Guang Yuan. The man was wearing a mask. She could not see his facial features well, but his eyes were sharp and bright. He also had smooth jawlines and his skin was fair.

Mu Chenxi chuckled. Then, she pulled out a doc.u.ment and handed it to the 2 people behind her.

Dont worry about the quality of the drama. Its an adaptation of a good-selling novel, and the author will join us during the making of the drama as well. Im sure you guys have seen the remuneration package that we offer, right? Its higher than the remuneration package offered by Red Sun, and most importantly, you dont have to work with Ye s.h.i.+yun

Guang Yuans agent had seen the contract before. The reason Mu Chenxi repeated it again was that she wanted to insult Fu Zhi.

It went without saying that Fu Zhi knew what she was doing. She expressionlessly pulled a card out of her pocket and said, Whatever remuneration package she offers you, I will give you double.

As if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, Guang Yuans agent chuckled and said, Miss, I dont know whats wrong with you, but acting is a n.o.ble profession and as the best-selling author, Im sure that you know money cant buy you everything. As long as you dont kick Ye s.h.i.+yun out of the team, Guang Yuan will not go back!

Triple.

This is a matter of principle.

Four times.

Were not acting for money, were acting for art!

Five times.

Five? Five times? No, I mean we have to honor our promise, so we, we cant

Six times.

Deal!

Mu Chenxi and Xiao Bai were stunned.

Everything was happening so fast that they still could not come around to their senses. Mu Chenxi turned her head and looked at Guang Yuans agent in disbelief.

The agent asked Fu Zhi, Youre not joking, right?

Yeah.

The agent was stunned. This was the first time Guang Yuan landed on such a high-paying movie. You really, really, really, are not joking, right? Will you go back on your word? After all, its not a small amount of money

That means you dont want it?

The agent was stumped.

Of course, I want it!

He pushed Guang Yuan, who was tugging at him, aside and made a bow. Im sorry, Ms. Mu.

Then, he said, Well, money is not the main issue, but since Master Pure Feather is so sincere, we will look hypocritical if we keep turning her down. Besides, we agreed to join Master Pure Feathers movie first, so its not suitable for us to take your offer now

Xiao Bai was still unable to regain himself from the change of situation.

So this is how movie directors fight for the actor? The one who offers the better remuneration package will get the actor they want?

Xiao Bao texted Ye s.h.i.+yun, [Youre at the setting now right? Youre not here right now, so you dont know how much your sister has sacrificed for you.]

[I know. She just asked for 100 million yuan from me.]

Xiao Bai was speechless.

Well, like brother, like sister.

At the same time, Guang Yuans agent forced Guang Yuan to sign Fu Zhis revised contract on the grounds that his mother needed to undergo multiple surgeries.

Gritting her teeth tightly, Mu Chenxi shouted, How can you do something like this, Fu Zhi? How can you be so shameless?

Im shameless? A fine fowl perches only on a fine tree, and a virtuous minister serves only a virtuous master. In this case, I have more money than you, so Im better than you. If you dont like it, just turn around and leave. The exit is just over there.
