“Okay,” the agent agreed, ready to leave when his phone suddenly rang.
“The producer?” He glanced at the caller ID, sowhat puzzled.
Rong Weiwei also saw the words “Three Kingdoms producer” and signaled to him, “Answer it, let’s see what it’s about.”
“Mm.”
The agent answered the phone, greeting the person on the other line with a smile, “Ai Mi, what brings you to call , what’s up? Do you need for sothing?”
Whatever the person on the other end said, the smile on his face gradually froze, turning into an anxious expression, “Replace soone? Why suddenly replace soone? Ai Mi, is there so misunderstanding? We have already been promoting the movie in recent events just like you asked, and now you suddenly want to replace soone… We’ve already cleared our schedule, this isn’t very nice, is it? Besides, our Weiwei was recomnded by Mr. Shi, didn’t you say that Weiwei was very suitable for the role? Suddenly replacing her, does Mr. Shi know about this?”
Rong Weiwei, even without knowing what was said on the other side, could tell from his words that sothing was amiss, and her face turned ashen, gripping the chain of her handbag tightly.
Why would the film crew want to replace soone out of the blue?
The official announcent was scheduled for tomorrow!
She had already sent out the press release, and now they were telling her about a cast change—it was simply outrageous!
Moreover, it had happened before with “Return to Ning”; she had assud she was the lead actress. Then KT Entertainnt suddenly stepped in, and she lost the lead role, which had already made her the butt of many jokes in the industry. If this happened again, how could she continue working in this circle?!
Seeing that whatever the agent said, the other party was adamant, Rong Weiwei extended her hand, her eyes dark and determined, “Give the phone, I’ll talk to them!”
The agent silently passed the phone to her, hoping what she had to say would make a difference.
If they were replaced at this ti, that really would be the end.
Rong Weiwei took the phone and quickly adjusted her mood. She softened her voice as she spoke to the person on the other end, “Ai Mi, it’s , Weiwei.”
“Weiwei…” The person seed slightly uncomfortable upon hearing her voice, but still said, “The decision to replace you was made after careful consideration, and we’re truly sorry. Don’t worry, we will pay you the breach-of-contract fee, please rearrange your schedule.”
Rong Weiwei was so angry she nearly spat out blood. A star’s schedule was usually planned well in advance, and she had set aside the next two months for the movie. The sudden change by the production ant wasting those two months. Where could she find a project comparable to “Three Kingdoms” to fill such last-minute, unplanned ti? The cast for such major projects was always booked early, and even if she wanted to find a replacent, soone else would have to give up their spot!
She managed to hold back her anger without hanging up. Speaking softly, she said, “The breach-of-contract fee is a minor issue. I just want to know why the production has suddenly decided to replace ?”
“That…”
“Ai Mi, you’ve always had a good relationship with HuanYu, and I believe there must be so misunderstanding here.”
After she hinted so broadly, the other person didn’t want to completely offend her-she had the connections of HuanYu behind her, after all. So, after a mont’s hesitation, they replied indirectly, “The film’s investnt structure has been reorganized, and Li Group has requested a change of cast.” Li Group has requested to change the cast!
Rong Weiwei clenched the phone so hard her knuckles turned white..
