Chapter 322 Not Afraid of Offending People
Fang Li was taken directly to the film crew's RV by Zhu Shun.
Zhu Shun isn't stupid.
Fang Li's sudden appearance today, and her special conversation with Li Fan at the scene, makes it obvious that she must have heard something.
This drama is not only important to him, but also to Li Yun.
As Liyun's first official project after its establishment, Liyun cannot allow this script to be ruined in the end.
Therefore, after the two got into the car, Zhu Shun didn't beat around the bush and told them everything that had happened during this period.
"I apologize for not informing you of this beforehand, Mr. Xu."
Fang Li: "Director Zhu, there's no need for polite words. I'm sure you know very well that if things continue like this, this project will be completely ruined."
Zhu Shun grabbed a handful of hair and sighed, "There's nothing we can do now. You must have heard of Li Kaixuan's name. Li Fan is his nephew. The fact that he managed to get people into this production team is already a sign of respect for us, not to mention that he personally brought in an investment."
"Based on these two points alone, Li Fan is just a block of wood, and I have no choice but to accept it, otherwise..." He shook his head and gave a self-deprecating smile.
Fang Li frowned: "You can accept me but I can't, Director Zhu. Back then, Li Yun chose to work with you because she valued your upright character and the fact that you are a truly passionate director who loves this industry."
"But now you are actually going to abandon the principles you have upheld for many years for the sake of the rules of the industry, and be forced to tolerate such unprofessional actors ruining your hard work. This completely goes against our original intention of working together."
"Director Zhu, I know you are under a lot of pressure and there are some things you can't make on your own, but I believe you don't want to see yourself working hard for months only to have it all go to someone else."
Zhu Shun sat on the sofa with his head down and didn't say anything.
Fang Li paused for a moment and then said, "I don't know if you're willing to believe me."
Zhu Shun suddenly looked up, and Fang Li looked at him with deep eyes.
"Mr. Xu, you mean...?"
-
No one knows what Fang Li and Zhu Shun talked about in the car.
All that everyone knows is that Huang Yu, the screenwriter of Li Yun, left with Fang Li that afternoon.
Back in the studio, Zhou Yufan heard the commotion and came looking for him.
Fang Li had just sat down and picked up her water glass to take a sip when Zhou Yufan entered the room, pulled out the chair opposite her, and sat down.
"what's the situation?"
Fang Li took a couple of sips of water before saying, "It's settled."
Zhou Yufan raised an eyebrow. "All done? What did you talk to Zhu Shun about? Did he agree to replace the actor?"
"Of course not, so I didn't mention changing the actors at all."
"So what did you say to him?"
Fang Li leaned back slightly, closer to the back of her chair, and said, "I said that starting tomorrow, I will temporarily work with the crew as the screenwriter for Li Yun."
"That's it?"
"The contract we signed at the time clearly stated that Pear Blossom Studio had 100% decision-making power over the script. No matter who the lead actor was or whether they brought their own screenwriter, they had to get our approval if they wanted to change the script."
Zhou Yufan smiled and asked, "And then?"
"Although Huang Yu has a lot of professional experience, he lacks confidence when facing capital, but I am different."
Fang Li smiled and said, "I'm already a little impatient to see how the screenwriter that male lead brought will come to me tomorrow to revise the script."
“Aren’t you afraid of offending people? After all, Liyun is a startup. You know how much influence Li Kaixuan has in the industry. If you offend him, Liyun will suffer the consequences.”
"Li Yun will pick her own fruit. So what if Li Kaixuan has influence? In the face of absolute capital, what are ten more Li Kaixuans?"
Zhou Yufan smiled and said, "So you've finally figured it out and aren't going to waste resources by pretending to be weak anymore?"
Fang Li scoffed, "What can I do? I used to think about training myself and seeing how far I could go, but the truth is that if you want to do more, you have to stand high enough, otherwise you may not even have a chance to stand out and will be swept into the abyss by the tide of capital."
-
That evening, Fang Li gave Zhu Shun a piece of her mind.
"Director Zhu, I may need to be more lenient with you starting tomorrow. I will be careful to keep things in check, and I hope you can turn a blind eye and try not to interfere."
"Okay, as long as I don't have to get involved, I'll cooperate as much as possible."
"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I won't involve Director Zhu."
"Then we'll see how Mr. Xu handles it."
Fang Li's expression was calm, and her tone contained a faint smile: "Director Zhu, could you please send me a copy of the recent filming schedule, especially the one for Li Fan?"
"it is good."
-
The next day, Fang Li went out with Han Xi as usual early in the morning.
“Starting today, I’ll be staying on set for a while. I’ll be back with Brother Tian tonight, so you don’t need to come pick me up.”
Han Xi was driving, and Fang Li was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Going to the film set?"
"Yes, there's been a problem with the notebook from before, I need to go take a look."
Han Xi frowned slightly, "Doesn't your studio have other screenwriters? Do you, the boss, need to personally come forward?"
Fang Li smiled, turned her head to look at him and said, "Because the other screenwriters can't solve it, only I, the boss, can step in!"
"......"
"Director Zhu has a new male actor, he's a bit tough to work with, I'm planning to go and see for myself."
Han Xi turned to look at her: "Do you need me...?"
"Stop." Fang Li directly pressed her finger against the man's lips.
She gently touched the corner of the man's lips with her slender white index finger, one light touch after another. "Don't worry, I can handle this little thing. If it really doesn't work, I'll naturally come to you for help."
Han Xi was aroused by her little gestures, and gave her a deep look, saying, "You said the same thing last time."
Fang Li laughed: "That's because the matter is indeed too small, and there's no room for President Han to use his skills."
Soon, the car arrived at the foot of the Huanyu International building.
Fang Li had just unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car when the man next to her locked the door before she could.
Then she heard the sound of the seatbelt popping open, followed by an arm reaching out from her side and pulling half of Fang Li's body towards her.
"Mr. Han, what are you doing...?"
Before she could finish speaking, her lips were captured by the man.
Fang Li was startled and frantically patted his shoulder, "Ugh... Han... Song... let go..."
Is this man insane?!
This isn't just near my home; it's downstairs at Huanyu International Building. At this hour, it's packed with people going to work, and I might even run into a Liyun employee. What if someone I know sees me...?
Fang Li's ears turned red instantly.
The hand that was patting the man's shoulder was grabbed and controlled by the man's large hand.
Han Xi held Fang Li's head with one arm and her fidgeting wrist with the other, and kissed her deeply.
Only when he felt Fang Li's breathing becoming lighter and lighter, and her whole body slumping down as if about to slide off the center console, did he reluctantly release her lips.
