“Alright, let’s not talk about Mr Li and Mr Zhang. Let’s just talk about Lu Yuanze and Zhao Shiqi. Both of them are stable A-listers. They cooperated throughout the entire filming process. Why do you have to act special?”
The female celebrity’s expression changed slightly. She took off her sunglasses and argued with Yan Ci.
“Director Yan, if you say that, I’m going to argue with you. The two of them are indeed very popular, but I’m not bad myself, right? Let me tell you, I still have two movies and a television drama to film in the second half of the year. In a few months, I can also advance to join the other A-list celebrities. Moreover, I might surpass them. Don’t look down on me!”
“I’m not looking down on you. I just want you to be more professional!” Yan Ci said.
“Am I unprofessional? 1 didn’t say that I wouldn’t join the filming. I just felt that the weather was a little hot and my head was a little dizzy. 1 can’t participate now.”
“You!”
“Brother Lin, you’re here.”
Just as Yan Ci was about to fly into a rage, she suddenly heard Zhang Heping’s voice.
Seeing Lin Yi come over, Zhang Heping stood up to greet him, and Gao Haoyu followed.
“Were you guys hired by the production team to help? Why are you serving others here?”
“Director Yan gave us permission, so we came over,” Gao Haoyu said honestly.
Lin Yi glanced at Yan Ci and felt that what she was doing was a bit wrong.
“Yes, yes, yes. Just stand there and don’t move. Help Xiao Shuang block the sun.”
The person who spoke was Alan. He instructed Lin Yi to adjust the angle so that he could block more sunlight.
“Who is this person? She’s here to record a show, so why is she acting like a big shot?”
Yan Ci walked over and whispered,
“Go wait for me at the side. I’ll deal with the matter first before looking for you.”
“When I first arrived at the village, I saw the commotion here. How long has it been and it hasn’t been settled?”
“There’s indeed a problem. I’m dealing with it.”
“She’s a guest star of this episode. Her name is Bai Shuang. She thinks the weather is too hot and doesn’t want to film now. She said that she wants to wait until tonight.”
“If you think it’s hot, then leave. Why are you here to show off? Why don’t you take a look at yourself?”
Yan Ci shook her head. Lin Yi had reacted as she had expected.
“Who are you talking about?!”
Alan was furious, pointing at Lin Yi. “Who the f*ck are you talking about?!”
“If you point at me again, 1 will break your legs. Wanna test me?”
“You!”
Alan took two steps back in fear and retracted his hand, not daring to point at Lin Yi anymore.
“These country bumpkins are barbaric!”
“Let them go, it’s too annoying staying here,” Lin Yi said.
“I didn’t want to take her at first. But then, an investor called me and asked for me to arrange for her to come in. 1 had no choice,” Yan Ci said awkwardly.
Lin Yi now knew what was going on and understood Yan Ci’s difficulties.
Otherwise, with her temper, she probably wouldn’t have kept this female celebrity around.
Unfortunately, many parties’ interests were involved and she had no choice.
“Actually, I really don’t want to come to your show. Look at this place. It’s filled with dust. It’s not a place fit for humans at all. 1 stayed in the courtyard for a while, and my entire body reeked of the stench of pigs,” Bai Shuang said.
“If my uncle hadn’t asked me to come here, 1 wouldn’t have participated in this stupid show.”
“Then you don’t have to participate.”
“Who do you think you are? My uncle asked me to come. Why should I listen to you?”
“These rich folks are always trying something new. When the word ‘godfather’ goes out of fashion, they start calling them ‘uncle.’”
Lin Yi held his phone and looked at Yan Ci. “Who arranged for this retard to enter?”
“Mr. Wang from Meituan?”
“That bald man in his forties? Wang Shubin?”
“Uh… yes, that’s him.”
They were all from the same industry, and Lin Yi was familiar with these Internet big shots. He had saved their numbers on his phone.
“President Lin, to what do I owe the honor?”
“There’s a woman called Bai Shuang here. Did you arrange for her to join a show recently?”
“That’s right. I called Director Yan before this. It would be a pity for her to miss participating in such a good show.”
“But this person is a little pretentious. She’s acting like a big shot on the show and not participating in the filming. What do you think we should do about this?”
“Did such a thing happen?” Wang Shubin said, “I’ll call her now!”
“There’s no need. I’m on loudspeaker. She’ll hear you if you speak.”
“Uncle, I’m here.”
Bai Shuang’s expression was bleak. She felt that something was amiss.
“Are you f*cking crazy? It wasn’t easy for me to get a chance for you to join from Director Yan. Instead of f*cking cherishing it, you actually went there to act like a big shot? Do you really think you’re hot sh*t? If I didn’t support you, you would still be a f*cking waitress in the mall!”
Facing Wang Shubin, Bai Shuang was scolded so badly that she did not dare to say a word.
“Uncle, I understand 1 was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again. I’ll definitely cooperate with the filming.”
“President Lin has already called me. What filming are you talking about? Get back here quickly. Don’t make President Lin angry!”
“I know, I know…”
“President Lin, this is all my fault. When are you free? 1’11 arrange a table for us to have a meal. She’s just an actress. There’s no need to lower yourself to her level.”
“Your taste is too poor. If you’re looking for this kind of person, I’ll introduce a few nicer girls to you when 1 have the time,” Lin Yi said.
“I heard that she has several more movies lined up. You should make her go as far away as possible and quickly. You’ll end up getting cheated sooner or later if you keep hanging out with someone of such poor IQ.”
“Alright, President Lin has spoken. 1 will definitely follow.”
“Then that’s all for now. We’ll eat together when we have time. We don’t have to harp on this.”
“I’ll remember that. Let’s meet again when we have time.”
After hanging up the phone, Bai Shuang and Alan’s faces turned pale. If Wang
Shubin didn’t support them, they would be finished in the future!
And who exactly was this person in front of him?
He actually dared to shout at Wang Shubin?
“In the future, if anyone calls you again and says that they have arranged for someone to join your show, just mention my show. I want to see who dares to act special.”
“I don’t want to get you in trouble.”
Yan Ci knew that all the sponsorship for this show done to please Lin Yi.
If it wasn’t for him, this show wouldn’t exist.
In order to protect Lin Yi’s connections, she didn’t refuse.
“It’s fine. Such a small matter can’t affect me.”
“Huh?”
After speaking to Lin Yi, Yan Ci turned around and looked at Bai Shuang and Alan.
“Our contract has been terminated. We don’t need you for the second half of the show anymore. You can go pack your things now and save yourself from the sun.”
“Director Yan, listen to me. What happened before was indeed my fault
. I understand my mistake now. I’ll definitely cooperate actively with the subsequent programs. I hope you can give me another chance.” Bai Shuang grabbed Yan Ci’s arm and cried.
“That’s not up to me. You should leave. 1 hope you can grow up in the future. The entertainment industry is a sensitive place. You can’t be so arrogant.”
With that, Yan Ci looked at Lin Yi and said indifferently,
“After all, you’re not him. You don’t have the right to be arrogant..”
