Chapter 36 Ye Ming’s role crisis

In fact, the director's work is not completely over, because there is still one thing that needs to be solved.

Regarding Chen Zhipeng's problem, although the director did not talk about it in front of everyone on the crew, everyone knew very well that Chen Zhipeng needed to step down at this time.

After all, he is a big shot on the A-list. He offended others and refused to film because of his illness, but he needs an excuse when he goes out to film.

It seems that the atmosphere of the entire crew has not relaxed much. Chen Zhipeng is still ill and has shown no signs of improvement for several days. This makes the director frown.

This time, after Ye Ming finished the show, he didn't even have time to take off his makeup. It was almost early in the morning.

Except for the busy staff dismantling equipment, no one made any sound at the scene.

Zhang Tielin walked over quietly, looked around and saw no one around, and then seemed to be talking to himself: "Isn't your current situation very good? Do you know why Chen Zhipeng has not been filming? In fact, he is I'm thinking about your role and want to replace you, but the director hasn't made up his mind yet. Pay attention to yourself, I'm going to see Sister Hua, don't let that girl Binbin hold me back."

It seems that Zhang Tielin heard some rumors. To be honest, the entire crew, except for the temporary extras, is only twenty or thirty people. It is not easy to hide the news.

This time, Ye Ming frowned. No wonder Chen Zhipeng didn't come out to film. It turned out that he wanted the role of Er Kang, but he didn't know what the director had in mind.

Ye Ming returned to the makeup van. Zhao Wei and Lin Xinru had obviously gotten the news, but Lin Xinru couldn't tell what they thought.

Although I have gradually become familiar with Ye Ming in the past two days, because I am from Baodao no matter what, I can't always support Ye Ming from an objective standpoint.

Moreover, as a newcomer, she seemed to be a little powerless when it came to such a problem.

Zhao Wei didn't have such vicious scruples. Under such a situation, he said unabashedly: "Ye Ming, I don't think you can just stay silent about this matter. This is too bullying. You should go to Director Zhao and explain clearly.

Ye Ming smiled and said as if nothing had happened: "What do you want me to say about this matter? If the director doesn't make it clear for a day, then I can't say anything more at a time like this, otherwise it will be unprovoked. Only when the director comes to me personally can I take advantage of it. No matter what, I think the time will not be too short. If it is delayed for a long time, it will not be good for anyone."

In other words, Ye Ming knew very well that if Chen Zhipeng wanted to take over his role, the sooner the better. Otherwise, it would not be easy to change it in the future.

This time, the whole crew knew about the casting incident, except Ye Ming himself, who seemed to be kept in the dark.

In fact, Ye Ming could also tell that this was the director testing himself, passing such unconfirmed news to his ears through various channels, and then seeing what kind of reaction he would have. .

If he didn't react too violently in a situation like this, I guess the next step would be to change roles.

Maybe someone will come find me tomorrow.

Sure enough, the next day, Ye Ming was called into the conference room by Chao Guolijiao. Sitting in the huge conference room was Hong Fei from Yonghua.

He also found his agent. It seemed that Sun Shupei was determined to change himself.

However, in such a situation, Sun Shupei actually did not do it himself, but Chao Guoli came to take over such a matter.

After Chao Guoli sat down, she opened the folder she carried with her and said, "Mr. Hong, I came to you today with a question about Ye Ming. Because of the script, the director believes that Ye Ming is more suitable for the performance until now. Ertai is a character like this, so we plan to change the roles of actors, and now we are trying to get your opinions."

When Hong Fei heard this, he stared at Chao Guoli with his eyes like lightning and said: "That's not what was said when we signed the contract. If you want to change it now, it seems a bit excessive."

Chao Guoli said in a businesslike manner: "At that time, it was actually a momentary oversight. Moreover, the contract signed at that time also stated that Ye Ming was the main role in Huanzhugege, not necessarily the protagonist. For a role like Ertai, We think it is more suitable for Ye Ming to perform.

Hong Fei didn't seem to have expected that the cast of My Fair Princess actually said that there was still a trap waiting for him here. At that moment, he said angrily: "If, I mean if, our Ye Ming retires, who will take the role? In fact, I won't agree to it, but if you dare to provoke Yonghua, I admire his courage."

Who dares to attack Yonghua’s people behind their backs? It’s like living impatiently.

Chao Guoli hesitated for a moment and then said: "It should be Mr. Chen Zhipeng. There is no problem of who provokes whom. We have an agreement in the contract. Therefore, if the role is changed, it is also necessary for the filming. We are just informing you." It’s just your request.”

When Hong Fei saw the contract this time, he suddenly felt that he had been negligent. Sure enough, in the additional clauses, it was stated that the crew had the right to change Ye Ming's role.

At that time, Hong Fei didn't take this clause of the contract to heart at all, thinking that there was no big problem. However, he didn't expect that at this time, the crew actually said that this clause would be the reason.

During the filming this time, the crew actually said that they discovered a strange phenomenon. Chen Zhipeng, who had been sick for the past two days, actually appeared on the scene. Could it be that the conflict was resolved.

Judging from Chen Zhipeng's expression, it seemed that he got what he wanted.

At this time, Su Youpeng was also very surprised that Chen Zhipeng would come over.

Last night, when I chatted with Chen Zhipeng, Chen Zhipeng didn't show any intention of relaxing. Today, it seems that Chen Zhipeng is in a very good mood.

Pulling Chen Zhipeng aside, Su Youpeng said, "Zhipeng, what's going on? Could it be that the director agreed to the conditions you proposed?"

Chen Zhipeng said quite proudly: "My dear, don't you think that if there are a little more mainland actors in this drama, sometimes if the balance is balanced, it's not a big deal. I heard, The director will talk to Ye Ming and his agent about this issue today, most likely."

At this time, Su Youpeng knew that all this was true. However, he was still very worried and said: "Ye Ming is not as simple as it seems. You have to be careful. Liu Hanmin is an investor and has been Ye Ming is gone, it’s not easy for you to play his role."

At this moment, Chen Zhipeng said with a determined expression: "My dear, you are worrying too much. When Ye Ming signed the contract with the crew, it was stated that the director has the right to change roles. Therefore, if his role is changed at this time, the crew will not If there is any issue of breach of contract, would Ye Ming, a newcomer, dare to say no?"

At this time, far away in the conference room, Ye Ming did not read the contract, because he had already read it carefully when signing it, and because of this, he also made some responses.

Therefore, at this time, seeing Hong Fei angrily unwilling to speak, Ye Ming took over and said: "Director Chao, it seems that this kind of thing is a bit inappropriate. Now that you say it is not appropriate to change roles, what have you done earlier? Retire. One step will open up the world, and don’t make everyone look ugly in the end.”

Chao Guoli didn't seem to accept this at all and said: "I don't think there is anything illegal in the director adjusting your role. It's not that your role is not there, it's just that it is adjusted according to the needs of the plot. As a newcomer, you have Who are you to bargain with us?"

It was certain that Ye Ming was a newcomer. At this time, Chao Guoli spoke with confidence.

For newcomers, especially newcomers from the mainland, Chao Guoli is qualified enough to say this. I don't know how many newcomers begged her to have an insignificant role in the play.

At a time like this, Hong Fei said angrily: "Aren't you afraid that we will withdraw our capital? You know, we are also one of the investors. If we are annoyed, everyone will break up."

It seemed that Chao Guoli had already expected Hong Fei's move. She said very confidently: "We have already signed a contract. Therefore, if you want to unilaterally withdraw capital, you will bear legal responsibility. Moreover, in the past two days, , we also communicated with President Ouyang, and he himself maintained a neutral position."

Hong Fei was a bit surprised that the platform was actually neutral. However, considering that the platform was also divided into factions, Hong Fei was a little powerless at this time.

Brother Xiao Qiang, that’s all.

It was easy for Sun Shupei to take advantage of him.

However, Hong Fei was unwilling to give in. Things had come to this point and he pushed Ye Ming out at the sight. He didn't expect that such a change would happen midway.

He glared at Chao Guoli fiercely and said, "You are really not afraid that Yonghua Film and Television will break the contract,"

Chao Guoli shook her head and said: "It's not that I'm not afraid, but that under such circumstances, the crew actually thinks that Chen Zhipeng has greater appeal and is more suitable for this drama. We are doing everything for this drama. I hope you don't Involve personal feelings."

Chao Guoli said this in such a businesslike manner, as if, at this moment, Ye Ming and Hong Fei were determined, and they had to agree even if they didn't agree.

In fact, in Chao Guoli's view, Chen Zhipeng's appeal is indeed greater than that of Ye Ming. As the starring role, he may be more suitable, but not necessarily. (To be continued)
