Chapter 196: Replace the Female Lead
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Guan Yun, who was almost 30 years old this year, still looked as youthful and beautiful as a young girl. Time seemed to have given her special treatment and did not leave many marks on her face.
She had long eyebrows, a cherry-like red mouth, and a pair of affectionate and gentle eyes. Guan Yun was the kind of Eastern beauty that Westerners imagined. She had a classical charm and gentleness.
The woman’s temperament was even more memorable than her beauty. Every move she made was flirtatious and carried the natural allure of a woman. She was elegant and enchanting.
“Oh, you seem to have encountered some trouble.” Guan Yun paused and looked at Ye Xuan with her beautiful eyes. For the first time, she mentioned that person’s name in front of Ye Xuan. “Is it about Lu Zhen?”
Ever since Ye Xuan signed Lu Zhen, Guan Yun’s relationship with her did not seem to be as close as before. Because Ye Xuan now had to be responsible for one more person, she gradually began to hand over Guan Yun’s matters to others.
As for the others, their abilities were naturally not as strong as Ye Xuan’s. Guan Yun often felt a little uncomfortable during this period of time. However, Guan Yun was a smart person. She did not show any dissatisfaction. When she interacted with Ye Xuan, her attitude was basically the same as before.
Ye Xuan sighed and nodded. “Yes, the investors threatened to withdraw their investment and replace Lu Zhen.”
Guan Yun’s expression did not change at this news. One could not tell if she was happy or unhappy. She only nodded. “It seems that I can’t help much. You can go ahead.”
After Guan Yun left, Ye Xuan looked at her back and picked up her phone to call Song Jia again. Song Jia also received this news. When Ye Xuan called, Song Jia said before she could speak, “I’ll settle this matter. I definitely won’t let Lu Zhen be replaced.”
Hearing Song Jia’s promise, Ye Xuan heaved a long sigh of relief.
“Then I’m relieved. This movie is very likely to win an award. Lu Zhen lacks a meaningful Best Actress Award now. This movie is very important,” Ye Xuan emphasized. Seeing that it was getting late, she said, “Then tell me if there’s any news tomorrow.”
After hanging up, Song Jia frowned and immediately contacted Lin Feng.
Lin Feng seemed to be resting. His voice was muffled and sleepy. “Song Jia, what’s the matter?”
“I’m sorry to disturb your rest. Do you have the contact number of the President of Tai An Limited?”
“Yes, I’ll send it to you now. Did something happen?
“Tai An invested in a movie in my company. Now, they went back on their word at the last minute and want to change the female lead. I want to ask what’s going on.” Song Jia’s tone was a little cold.
“How did this happen? Tai An has been working with me well. Why don’t I tell them?”
“It’s not convenient for you to come forward. I’ll settle it.”
Lin Feng and Song Jia were in charge of different companies. In order to avoid being noticed, Song Jia rarely took the initiative to take charge of the Lin family’s business. At most, he would help Lin Feng make some important decisions when he couldn’t make up his mind.
After “Beauty” was confirmed to be filmed, it needed an investor.
Coincidentally, Song Jia heard that Tai An Corporation had some ties with the officials of the radio and television review bureau. In order to let this movie pass the review smoothly, Song Jia asked Lin Feng to help him persuade Tai An Corporation to invest.
Tai An Corporation was powerful, so they naturally did not mind spending some money to invest in a movie. They were more concerned about being able to form a friendly and cooperative relationship with the Lin family. After all, the Lin family had a deep foundation in politics and business. Some large corporations and families in Beijing were polite to the Lin family and fawned on them.
However, for some reason, Tai An Corporation actually took the initiative to breach the contract.
After getting President Tai An’s contact number, Song Jia immediately contacted him.
“Mr. Song? Oh) you’re talking about the collaboration. We just don’t think Lu Zhen is suitable for the image of the female lead. You can just change the female lead to the other female celebrities of Jia Le. Anyway, they’re all Jia Le’s artists. You won’t lose out, right?”
On the surface, Song Jia was just the boss of an entertainment company. The President of Tai An Group didn’t take him seriously, and his tone was very relaxed and casual.
If Lin Feng had made this call, the other party probably wouldn’t have such an attitude.
However, Song Jia didn’t want to implicate Lin Feng in this matter. After all, this was between Tai An Corporation and Jia Le. The reason why Tai An Corporation was so presumptuous and bold was probably because they felt that Jia Le was just an entertainment company.
They did not dare to offend the Lin family, but they did not care about a small entertainment company..
