Chapter 400

Chapter 400: Chen Huan, I got bullied!

Lai Haijin was depressed and didn’t have the energy to work at all .

He was deeply hurt by the humiliation Wen Fan gave him but he was powerless against it .

He kept thinking about it and even thought about asking Bu Yiyi to make trouble and humiliating them but he held himself back .

He was in the entertainment industry to make money, not to do revenge .

Against a big film company such as Calf TV, there would be people rushing to do it even if Lai Haijin didn’t .

“Bam!”

Just as Lai Haijing was lamenting, the door of his office was violently opened .

Lai Haijin, who had his feet on the table, retracted his feet subconsciously and had a dissatisfied look before he saw the furious Bu Yiyi .

“What is going on?” Lai Haijin stood up, “Yiyi, who has offended you?”

Bu Yiyi should have been reviewing the script at home and preparing to join the cast in filming as soon as possible .

But her coming into his office made Lai Haijin uneasy .

He felt something was wrong .

“Old Hai, tell me what are they trying to do!?” Bu Yiyi slammed a folder into the table, “We clearly already decided that I was going to be the lead actress Xiao Wanzi but why was the script given, I got the role of Zhang Chuchu?!”

“What!?”

Lai Haijin picked the folder and read it .

Sure enough, the title was ‘Zhang Chuchu (Liu Runei)’ .

“They’re going too far!”

How could Lai Haijin still not understand what was going on .

They got played by Calf TV this time as they changed the protagonist to deuteragonist for Bu Yiyi .

Although the role had ample screen time, the most popular for the viewers was definitely the lively and naughtier Xiao Wanzi!

No matter how great Bu Yiyi played Zhang Chuchu, she wouldn’t be able to steal the limelight from Xiao Wangzi and would instead be the foil for Xiao Wanzi!

“Did you ask for the reason?” Lai Haijin asked in a solemn voice .

“No, I came to you first . ” Bu Yiyi replied .

She wasn’t an idiot and wouldn’t directly confront them when met with a situation like that .

Whether it was scolding or negotiating, she couldn’t go because she may damage her image .

Moreover, Bu Yiyi wasn’t good at it as she hated this type of dispute .

Her agent was naturally the best candidate for that .

“Mmh, sit tight, I’ll go find out the situation . ”

Lai Haijin took a few deep breaths before taking out his phone .

His first call wasn’t to Wen Fan but to one of his friends at Calf TV .

Then he made two more calls .

Then he finally called Wen Fan and put it on speaker .

This time, didn’t have the gentle attitude he had before .

The first thing he said was, “Young master Wen, you’re having Bu Yiyi play the supporting female role and this is clearly not what we’ve agreed! If you don’t want to use Bu Yiyi, just say it and we will leave!”

“How can we be willing to let Yiyi leave?” Wen Fan replied with a laugh, “But Old Lai, what you just say is too harsh . Zhang Chuchu and Xiao Wanzi are both female leads, how could it be a supporting role? We absolutely have no intention of mistreating Yiyi . ”

“Which of them is more important and cared about, you yourself know . ” Lai Haijin said, “Can you tell me who’s playing Xiao Wanzi?”

“It’s a very good actress we’re nurturing called Gu Yingjing and a graduate of Huhai Opera . ” Wen Fan said .

“She must be your current girlfriend, right? She didn’t have any great role before so why did you already decide? What qualification does she have for such a big production?” Lai Haijin held back on his rage as he said, “I won’t mention it if you change it back… otherwise our Yiyi won’t be playing this supporting role!”

“Oh, it’s not something easy to do . ” Wen Fan said regretfully, “This is the company’s decision, I alone can’t change it . Old Lai, aren’t stars shooting movies because of money? The remuneration we’ll be giving Yiyi is already on paper, it’s 10 million, what’s to be unhappy about? It’s just a TV series, not a movie by Hao He . ”

“You’re trying to tell me that after signing the contract, we will compensate you 10 million if we withdraw?” Lai Haijin had an angry smile on him .

“I didn’t say that . ” Wen Fai said, “But if we reach the step of not wanting to see each other, I certainly don’t want any compensation money as long as the salary is given back to us . ”

“You got guts!”

Lai Haijin hung up the phone .

He didn’t speak for a long time .

Bu Yiyi sat nearby and could hear everything since it was on speaker .

Upon seeing this, she coldly snorted, “Old Lai, it seems that you’ve offended Wen Fan quite heavily . ”

“Huh?” Lai Haijin was taken aback .

“Don’t think I don’t know, didn’t you want to cram a lot of your people into ‘Love Through Different Times’ but was retorted by them?” Bu Yiyi said, “Great now, even though I got pushed out now, how humiliating is this?”

Lai Haijin sucked in a breath .

But he immediately reacted .

His plan wasn’t secret and the people from Calf TV definitely wouldn’t keep it a secret so it wasn’t surprising that Bu Yiyi knew .

But Bu Yiyi being so blunt about it showed her displeasure .

If he turned the tide and got Wen Fan to give the role back, perhaps Bu Yiyi wouldn’t mention it .

But he didn’t so Bu Yiyi must show her displeasure .

“Yiyi, listen to me . ” Lai Haijin calmed himself and said, “Although I’m selfish or too arrogant, my actions definitely didn’t affect you . I’m not stupid, how could I hurt my number one star for another person? They went against you this time because they are planning something . ”

Seeing Bu Yiyi thoughtful expression, Lai Haijin continued, “I just asked my friends and based on the information I got, they should be using you to generate hype…just think about it, how much controversy would it bring to you if a grand Small Flower Dan like you played a supporting role in a TV series? How much attention would it bring to them?”

“Did they go crazy?” Bu Yiyi said in derision, “What’s going to happen if Gu Yingjing doesn’t perform well? Wouldn’t they be laughed at?”

“As long as she’s at the standard, it’s impossible for perform badly . ” Lai Haijin shook his head, “Chu Liuxiang’s script is being produced a gold level producer Zha Houxin with the gold level director Wei Minggong to direct it all . This TV series is an ancient era comedy and doesn’t need great acting skills, this is a typical overachieving role!”

Bu Yiyi’s expression became ugly .

What Lai Haijin said made sense .

Even Bu Yiyi had figured out, Calf TV wanted to cultivate their own big star through ‘Love Through Different Times’ .

This was better than using an outsider like Bu Yiyi .

They wouldn’t dare to do so if they weren’t sure that the script was good .

Now that the script was good, they were without scruple .

Thinking about that, Bu Yiyi couldn’t hold it anymore so went to her own office in this company before taking out her phone .

“Chen Huan~~ I was bullied!”

The Small Flower Dan yelled out .
