Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Message Beyond Scope
After the matter with the Ji Family was resolved, the lawyer Lin Tian from Diyang Headquarters’ legal department informed Bo Yan over the phone.
The online scandal involving Yuran’s violence was suppressed; from its onset to its resolution, seven days had passed, exactly one week.
The onlookers still hadn’t come to their senses, feeling as if Yuran’s incident was nothing but a dream.
Xi Gu, who had originally been eager to watch the excitement of "City of Temptation," never expected such a development; he received the news while he was at the set of "Miss Rose."
Nominally, he was there to visit, but in reality, he was there to oversee.
He had high expectations for "Miss Rose" because it involved a significant bet he couldn’t afford to lose.
Initially, due to Yuran’s influence, he thought the popularity of "City of Temptation" would be greatly diminished, but the unexpected turn of events not only left "City of Temptation" unaffected;
instead, it inexplicably stirred up more popularity.
In the rest area of the set, he flew into a furious rage; his team comprised professionals, including highly renowned, internationally acclaimed directors and actors.
He should have been a confident person, but for some reason, he always lost his composure around Xi Nian.
Useless!
The main cast was filming their parts when suddenly, a crashing sound erupted from the rest area, startling everyone; the director immediately halted the shooting.
He called the site manager, "What’s happening? Where is that noise coming from? Who is trying to revolt?"
The site manager was even more bewildered than the director, "I don’t know, I’ll go check right now."
The site manager hadn’t even left when an assistant hurried over, whispering something into the director’s ear; the director’s expression changed, and he immediately called for silence.
"Let’s take a break, everyone take a break for now."
No one understood why but didn’t dare to ask further; Ou Jinchu’s assistant handed her a bottle of water, whispering in her ear, "I heard that Mr. Xi is throwing a tantrum in the rest area, smashing things to pieces."
Ou Jinchu glanced sideways at her assistant, her expression enigmatic, "Don’t meddle in matters that aren’t your concern, and don’t pry into others’ affairs, lest you invite trouble."
Seeing that she was displeased, the assistant’s face instantly changed, nodding repeatedly.
"I understand, Jinchu sister."
"Call me Miss, or Miss Ou, who is your sister?"
Little Assistant: "..."
Ou Jinchu got up and walked over to the director, checking the footage just shot, found several scenes she wasn’t satisfied with, and prepared to discuss with the director, "Director, I think there are problems with these shots."
Handling the camera, Ou Jinchu was also very skilled, quickly identifying the shots she was unsatisfied with, hoping to reshoot, but the director waved his hand off, "No need to fuss over such trifles."
Ou Jinchu frowned, "Why not?"
The director, "Both the assistant director and I are very satisfied with these shots, if we only pursue aesthetics, it will weaken the storytelling, you’re an actor, just focus on your performance."
Neither the influential actors nor the influential director could persuade the other; Ou Jinchu could not stand her shots lacking aesthetics, argued her point vigorously, eventually becoming quite heated with the director.
The director, infuriated and embarrassed, took off his hat and slammed it on the spot, "Ou Jinchu, I don’t care what status you hold overseas, in my crew, you have to listen to me."
Ou Jinchu also flushed with anger, "Director, why are you snapping at me? Aren’t I just discussing this calmly with you? Who are you showing that sour face to?"
The argument here was originally thought to be just a few verbal conflicts, but it escalated until Ou Jinchu smashed a camera onto the director’s head.
The director’s head was bleeding, and he was nearly about to strike back at Ou Jinchu.
Ou Jinchu looked at him indifferently, "In Diyang, you should be a bit more polite to me."
The legend of the Imperial Community always existed; the director couldn’t pinpoint her status, so he could only stare as everyone left unhappily, and Ou Jinchu didn’t continue filming. She just turned around and left.
The director was seething with anger, waving his hand to have someone stop Ou Jinchu, but there was a bloody hole in his head from which the blood kept dripping.
He could barely speak as his tongue was swollen, and by the time he had calmed down a bit, Ou Jinchu had already disappeared.
...
This incident was soon known by Xi Nian; compared to the "Miss Rose" film crew, "City of Temptation" seemed much more harmonious. Annan got along well with the crew, led personally by Yuran;
Afterwards, she learned quite a bit from Xie Cheng and didn’t mind spending money to gain some small favors, making herself comfortable within the film crew.
Moreover, the people of the "City of Temptation" crew were all direct subordinates of Xi Nian, cultivated and selected by Gui Yu and others, unlike the disparate but individually excellent "Miss Rose" crew that grouped together like a jigsaw, creating a lot of synergy.
Xi Nian would occasionally visit the set, and after Yuran’s issue was resolved, the fame of "City of Temptation" did not decrease but increased, with the outside world urging the progress of "City of Temptation".
Besides the promotional photos released earlier, up till now, there had been no leaked photos.
After Yuran’s incident, netizens started paying attention to her, and recently, during his leisure time, Gui Yu joked with Yuran, "Now when you go out, surely many people recognize you."
Originally, Yuran never tried to whitewash herself. She admitted her wrongdoings and didn’t resort to the excuses of youthful ignorance.
She just admitted her faults.
And she was forgiven by others, which is rare in the circle. Entertainers fear negative publicity and being labeled.
However, concerning these issues, Yuran herself offered no explanations.
Her marriage to Bo Yan, in fact, became a hotter topic than her scandal. Many people were eager to find out how the great actor Bo Yan interacted with people after marriage.
It was something worth looking forward to.
Regarding this, Diyang Headquarters offered no explanation, and neither did Yuran.
So, after Gui Yu asked her about it, Yuran pursed her lips into a smile, holding a cup of date tea, and chuckled, "Is Director Gui considering a career change?"
Gui Yu waved his hands, "No no no, I didn’t mean that. What I meant was, things are pretty good as they are, truly good."
Bringing such big popularity to "City of Temptation" naturally made the crew happy, and they even saved on advertising expenses.
Xi Nian was present, and it was then that news came from the "Miss Rose" crew about the lead actress and the director falling out.
Xi Nian ended the call and walked over to Gui Yu, Yuran raised her eyebrows, "Do I need to step aside?"
"No need," Xi Nian said, then looked at Gui Yu, "I just received a message, there’s been an incident at the ’Miss Rose’ crew."
Gui Yu looked at Xi Nian with interest, "Yo, it’s hard to get them into trouble. I’ve been looking forward to it, and here it comes? Nice, General Manager Xi, you get your hands on news so fast, tell me, what happened?"
Xi Nian’s eyes carried a hint of deep meaning, "Ou Jinchu smashed the director’s head with a camera, and now the director wants to claim damages. Ou Jinchu wants to breach the contract."
