After receiving Zhao Yao's call, Chen Xi fell into deep thought. He didn't know where Mr. Zhao heard about Zhang Qi, and even named the protagonist of "Li Meng" to let him try it. At first, he thought that finding an actor with good looks and good acting skills would only need to spend a little more money, but now that Mr. Zhao said so, he felt that this project might be accompanied by bloody storms again.
"Where did I hear about Zhang Qi..." Chen Xi looked at the information sent by the secretary on the desk, and sighed long.
He had heard of Zhang Qi because someone in the industry had named him to block him.
A few years ago, Zhang Qi could be said to be a popular actor. He was born in a TV series. Because of his good acting skills and unique style, he has many fans. For an actor like Zhang Qi who has good appearance and good strength, as long as the resources can keep up, it is only a matter of time before he becomes popular.
But what is not known is that Zhang Qi married at a young age, and was married before entering the circle, and his wife is an amateur. This matter has been kept hidden until one time the management took a fancy to Zhang Qi, and the boss said that he wanted to sneak him, but Zhang Qi should not have resisted, and the trouble was known to the rest of the crew.
Later, the management put pressure on him, and the crew withstood the pressure to terminate his contract. His original company was only a small company, and he couldn't bear the pressure from the boss in the industry, so he had to hide him in the end. After Xue Zang, the news of his marriage was also released by the marketing account, and the fans became more and more fans, and his popularity gradually slumped.
Chen Xi asked someone to check Zhang Qi, and found that the rumors from the outside world were fairly common. Since Zhang Qi's career suffered a blow, his wife passed away due to dystocia two years ago, and an old man took his daughter to survive, and his life became more and more difficult.
It is actually not difficult for someone as capable as Zhang Qi to leave the entertainment industry. However, the contract was suppressed by the original company and blocked by the industry. These years have not been very good, and he can only occasionally accept some supporting roles or secondary roles that don't show much. , and even became a martial arts stand-in.
From the perspective of acting skills and appearance, this person is definitely not at a disadvantage playing the male lead, and with his current net worth, it can be said that he has saved a lot of money.
But here comes the problem again. Inviting Zhang Qi means negotiating a contract with him, and maybe offending some people in the industry. From a long-term perspective, it is a deal of compensation.
Chen Xi looked worried, Huihua had just returned to temperature, and was about to touch other capital.
Mr. Zhao really made him a big problem... But it's not impossible to solve it.
"It's not looking for a small fresh meat, but then I found an old fresh meat."
Chen Xi got through the inside line and ordered the secretary to go to Zhang Qi to discuss the liquidated damages.

After Zhao Yao handed over the matter to Chen Xi, he didn't take care of it anymore. The actor's affairs were not his concern, and the invitation to Zhang Qi to audition was actually for Pei Mingzhan's sake. There are not no actors like Zhang Qi in the circle, but since Pei Mingzhan will mention these two sentences to him, it is easy for him to help.
"I heard that Xiao Ji went to a new show, brother, do you know?" Yao Bai was playing games while chatting with Zhao Yao, who was watching TV dramas, "I heard that it was a new music show in China, and his manager took him to it. The audition, the results passed smoothly, and now we are waiting for the recording of the program."
"A music show?" Zhao Yao looked indifferently, "That's quite suitable for him, let Xiao Ji do it well."
"After the audition, Xiao Ji told me that there are many people who are better than him. He said that he was lucky if he passed the audition." Yao Bai looked at Zhao Yao, "Brother, you didn't have any troubles at all, so did Xiao Ji. You brought it out with your own hands."
"Yeah." Zhao Yao responded lightly, "Luck is also a kind of strength."
"Chen Department told me that he has already contacted Zhang Qi." Yao Bai flipped through the chat history of vx, "It said that it will take some time to get it done."
"You can follow along with Limeng's project." Zhao Yao knew that Yao Bai would be bored in the hospital during this period of time. After all, his legs are fine, and he doesn't need to follow him all day. "If the script is sent to Zhang Qi It is estimated that the company will also be stopped, so there is no need to worry too much."
Yao Bai asked, "What if Zhang Qi disagrees?"
"Then Pei Mingzhan won't mention this matter to me. Zhang Qi doesn't want to be favored by Pei Mingzhan, but it doesn't mean he doesn't want to leave this predicament." Zhao Yao said lightly: "Sometimes talking about benefits is much easier than talking about kindness." , if he didn't have this idea, he wouldn't be playing tricks in the circle these few years."
Yao Bai thought it was the same, if someone came to help solve the trouble, no one would refuse.

The day Zhao Yao was discharged from the hospital happened to be the day before October. When Ms. Yao heard that he was discharged from the hospital, she invited him to eat at home, but there was a traffic jam on the road, and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening when she arrived at Yao Bai's house.
Yao Bai pushed the wheelchair into the room, talking while walking: "It seems that Actor Pei has finished running the event, Jianghu is scheduled to premiere on October 8th, brother, are you going to see it? His manager gave me some tickets." .”
"When did you have such a good relationship with his manager?" Zhao Yao stood up with a cane, and asked Yao Bai to take away the wheelchair first.
Yao Bai frantically put his phone in his pocket, "Last time about the crew, I established a revolutionary friendship with his agent. At that time, I formed a small group in order to suppress the hot searches on the Internet. Just now he asked me in the group that he would send It's about tickets." Not only that, Pei Mingzhan's agent also said that there may be places for cooperation in the future, so the group did not disband.
"Brother, you are bored at home all day long. The theme of Jianghu is very interesting. Love in ancient costumes. Don't you like to watch romance movies recently?" Yao Bai put away the wheelchair, "It's still played by Pei Mingzhan, the icing on the cake , don’t look at it and regret it for the rest of my life.”
In the middle of the conversation, he bounced and ran to the kitchen, completely disrespectful of an adult.
"Mom! I'll help."
Zhao Yao looked at Yao Bai who was walking farther and farther away, wondering where Yao Bai had another convulsion tonight.
During the meal, Yao's mother was busy adding food to Zhao Yao, while Yao's father was chatting with Uncle Wang about diet and health. Zhao Yao occasionally responded with a few words, but felt a different feeling in his heart. In his previous life, he was very busy every day, and even if he had a little spare time, he spent it in contacting people. Yao's parents also invited him to their home many times, but he always refused.
The only few times when Yao Bai was in China, he was afraid that he would die suddenly in the office alone during the Chinese New Year, so he dragged and dragged him to the house for dinner.
But at that time, he was very impetuous. He counted the rest of the work during the meal time. To him, eating was eating, and other people's greetings were coping, but he never noticed that the dinner table could be so lively.
Speaking of the family going to the movies in October—
"I'm thinking about calling out to Xiaobai's blind date girl. The last time I saw two girls was good." Ms. Yao said: "The son of the neighbor Wang's family has gone to the movies with his girlfriend, and Xiaobai has to take his family with him to watch the movie. .”
Papa Yao: "Indeed."
Uncle Wang: "This has delayed several people."
Yao Bai was speechless: "Don't mention Xiao Wang, he is three years older than me, okay? Mom, you worry every day that your son won't be able to marry a wife, right?"
Ms. Yao: "I really don't think any girl can fall in love with you."
Yao Bai quarreled with Ms. Yao, Zhao Yao ate and listened, and drank tea after dinner before going back.
It was past ten o'clock when we went back, Yao Bai helped Zhao Yao into the car.
At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, Zhao Yao reminded: "Your mobile phone is ringing."
Only then did Yao Bai answer the phone and found out that it was Chen Xi.
As soon as the call was connected, Yao Bai heard Chen Xi's voice: "Do you have time now? There is a problem with the Internet."
"What? Something happened?" Yao Bai was startled.
Zhao Yao stretched out his hand and grabbed Yao Bai's wrist, pressed the phone to talk and raised his voice, "Calm down, what happened?"
Chen Xi's anxious voice came from inside: "The video of the accident scene has been released."
After ten o'clock in the evening, it was the peak time for netizens to surf the Internet, and the next day was the golden holiday of October 1, so the heated discussions on Weibo continued to rise.
And not long ago, a certain marketing account suddenly released a video, which was a video from the crew of "Miying" invested by Huihua at that time.
The video shows a certain special effects scene of "Mission Movie". The male lead fights with Wia, and there are many staff members around outside the shooting area. And halfway through the video, screams suddenly came out, and the cameraman adjusted the angle to the side of the collapsed prop wall, just in time to capture the moment when the hook on the crane fell down.
The content of the video is exactly the situation in the studio on the day of the accident on the production team of "Fantasy Movie". All the equipment including the crane wire and other equipment were filmed, and the key scenes of the accident were also captured. There weren't many fans of the marketing account that was sent out, and it didn't explode until Pei Mingzhan's fans recognized that the person standing under the crane was Pei Mingzhan.
[My God... what if that thing hits someone?]
[Why didn't the official release of this incident?]
[Although I know that Lao Pei is fine, this clip is too scary! !]
[I seem to see a black shadow rushing towards my brother.]
[Now that there are so many staff members, is it true that none of the staff members were injured as the official blog said?]
[Is this a simple accident? @网剧笑影.]
After Huihua received the news, he immediately contacted Weibo to delete the video, but there were already many moving pictures circulating on the Internet. Chen Xi notified the public relations department immediately, and then called Yao Bai.
Yao Bai flicked the video forwarded by Chen Xi. The content of the video was not long, but the key accident scene was all shot in it.
He said angrily: "Which staff member owes so much? Still sending this kind of video to the marketing account?"
The muddy water behind this incident is not so clear, there are a lot of troubles behind it, and it has pushed the film crew to the cusp.
"It wasn't necessarily sent by the staff. The staff had already explained it during the on-site processing." Zhao Yao looked at the situation of the video, "From the shooting angle, this angle should be in the direction of the entrance. There is a lot of people, and the angle of the photographer at the beginning is to shoot the protagonist, which means that the scene behind is an accidental shot.”
Yao Bai asked, "Is there any difference?"
"That is to say, his purpose of filming is not to see the internal situation of the crew of "Mission", but to shoot clips of the protagonist's acting." Zhao Yao simply explained: "It means that this person did not shoot for the crew in the first place, but for the film crew. One of the actors at the time, that's why the attention at the beginning of the video falls on the director's camera side."
Yao Bai came to a sudden: "You mean it was taken by fans?"
"It's not difficult to catch the person who took the film. You can check the surveillance to know which artist fans were mixed in at the time."
Zhao Yao frowned slightly, "The question is which force is behind this incident?"
