Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

As soon as she saw Li Shuo, Chen Xiaoqi went straight to the point and said:

"Producer Li, although Mr. Fu of Century Huayue has gone too far and should be punished, Century Huayue's withdrawal from the crew is still a huge loss for the crew and may even disrupt the normal operation of the crew..."

Chen Xiaoqi represents Spreadtrum, which is the largest producer of the project. The male lead, the second female lead and a large number of actors are actually all from Spreadtrum, so in the entire project, Spreadtrum has the most say.

Li Shuo could naturally hear that Chen Xiaoqi disagreed with Century Huayue's withdrawal out of public interest, so he evaded the question: "As far as I know, wasn't the crew's operation very smooth yesterday? Even without Century Huayue, with the talent of producer Chen..."

Chen Xiaoqi shook her head and said, "Yesterday I forced everyone together. This situation won't last long. Besides, Century Huayue's role in the crew is mainly in the post-production..."

Li Shuo raised his eyebrows: "Soundtrack? Sound effects?"

Chen Xiaoqi nodded: "Yes, not only the soundtrack, but also the Chinese dubbing. You know, the crew used a lot of South Korean artists."

Li Shuo thought for a moment and said, "I think SN can provide some help in dubbing for South Korean artists. In addition, if Century Huayue insists on withdrawing from the project, then I would like to invite SN to take over its share."

Chen Xiaoqi immediately shook her head: "That won't work. SN is just a new company. We don't believe in its strength. In addition, it's not just about dubbing, there are also issues with the TV series soundtrack, theme song, ending song, sound effects, etc. These all need to be resolved..."

In fact, it is because SN organization has not demonstrated corresponding strength. Shuoguo Culture is also a new company, but as soon as it was born, it joined the "Feast of Kings" project under the leadership of Yang Kangcheng. Although it only accounted for the smallest share, it undoubtedly showed its super strength!

Li Shuo smiled and did not dwell on these things. Instead, he avoided the main point and said, "There must be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. If Century Huayue wants to withdraw, none of us can stop it. Why don't we discuss these issues after it withdraws?"

"But……"

Chen Xiaoqi was about to say something, but Li Shuo stood up and said, "What we have to do now is to ensure the normal operation of the crew. So, starting from today, I will be the first translator specially invited by the crew. The translation of Qiu Cixian and other South Korean actors will be left to me."

As he said that, he went directly to the inside of the filming site and stood next to Qiu Cixian. At this time, director Chen Dahai was discussing some acting issues with her, and it happened that Li Shuo could be used...

"Hey……"

Chen Xiaoqi looked at Li Shuo's back and felt a headache:

Even though Li Shuo played the leading lady and openly squandered the crew's public funds to live in a detached villa with the leading lady, Chen Xiaoqi still liked such a partner. At least he had put his "bad deeds" on the table, and compared with many investors, Li Shuo was even "too conservative."

What bothered her was that this guy's abilities were visibly "ordinary". Li Shuo did not join the crew at the beginning, and even after his first appearance, he quickly disappeared again. This meant that Li Shuo had no control over the crew, and could not help Chen Xiaoqi with the crew management.

Crew management is exactly what Chen Xiaoqi needs most right now. Coupled with Century Huayue's capabilities in "dubbing and music", she does not want Century Huayue to withdraw.

At this time, after Li Shuo's communication, Qiu Cixian nodded to the director, indicating that she understood, and then continued filming...

Chen Xiaoqi was slightly surprised to find that Qiu Cixian, who was a bit "arrogant" yesterday, was now acting particularly gentle and considerate, and she seemed to be trying her best to show her acting skills...

She looked at Li Shuo who was standing aside with his arms folded, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I didn't expect that he could have such a role. That's right, the sponsor wants the star to show her value. Qiu Cixian plays the role of 'Pinru' well during the day, and can also play her role at night to make the sponsor happy..."

Miraculously, in the next two hours, Qiu Cixian performed beyond her level and completed each shoot in the shortest time possible. At 2 o'clock, after the "CUT", assistant director Chen Dahai stood up and applauded, saying:

"Ms. Qiu, the banquet was very good. You have already finished filming today's scenes this morning!"

The others immediately started clapping. Everyone was also very surprised. However, their mentality was similar to Chen Xiaoqi's. While clapping, their eyes involuntarily drifted towards Li Shuo next to them.

In fact, Chen Xiaoqi had a headache about crew management, and the crew members under him were actually unsure about it.

They think: the new producer Li is too strong, and feels like a second-generation dandy. As soon as he came, he drove away the rich boss and occupied the female lead. Moreover, he ignored everyone in the past two days. Oh, it’s too hard to earn a salary...

At lunch, Li Shuo did not take Qiu Cixian out to eat, but chose to eat with everyone at the filming location. Firstly, it was because he really needed to interact with these middle and high-level personnel in the crew, and secondly, the meals were provided by the villa. Caoshan Resort Villa is a luxurious tourist attraction, and the meals provided are not boxed lunches, but a variety of dishes in the form of buffets. The color, aroma and taste are all hotel-level.

Of course, only middle and senior management can enjoy this level of treatment.

So when Li Shuo was having dinner, he naturally brought Qiu Cixian with him and sat together with Chen Xiaoqi, Lu Xiping, director Wu Bing, assistant director Chen Dahai and others.

When Li Shuo came over, Chen Dahai quickly stood up and moved the chair for him. Li Shuo quickly waved his hand and said, "You're welcome." But Chen Dahai said seriously, "Mr. Li, it's my duty to serve you. After all, I am promoted by you."

As he said this, he glanced at Director Wu Bing, who had been suspended from related work because of Fu Chengguo's incident, and his position as director was almost in name only.

During the meal, no one spoke much. Chen Dahai ate the fastest. He waited for Li Shuo to finish eating, and even insisted on picking up his plate and bringing it back for him...

Qiu Cixian was a little stunned by this scene, and asked Li Shuo in a low voice: "Are the identities and levels in your circle so strict?"

Li Shuo had heard about the "hellish South Korean entertainment industry" from Jin Xizhen, so he just comforted her by saying, "That's not the case. Director Chen is probably just grateful to me..."

However, Chen Xiaoqi, Lu Xiping, and Wu Bing did not despise Chen Dahai's actions at all, because they all knew that Chen Dahai was indeed trying to curry favor with Li Shuo, and they would do something similar if they were in his place...

After lunch, there was a break. Li Shuo wanted to take Qiu Cixian out for a walk. Although the South Korean beauty had been here for three days, she had been busy with work and had no time to go out. But when the two walked out of the shooting site, Lu Xiping followed them from behind:

"Mr. Li, do you have time?"

Li Shuo frowned imperceptibly. He never liked Lu Xiping. The reason he kept him around was just because he was still somewhat useful.

Lu Xiping seemed to know this, so he quickly said, "I noticed some problems with the crew, such as poor communication between the upper and lower levels. Although Chen Dahai was the deputy director of the crew before, he doesn't have the resume of Wu Bing after all, and he has never been in charge of a crew alone before..."

Li Shuo keenly felt that this was what Lu Xiping wanted to do to prove his own worth to him.

For the boss, this is a good sign, proving that the people below are working hard.

So, Li Shuo's expression relaxed, he looked around, and took Lu Xiping to the cafe opposite the holiday villa.

Li Shuo's attitude made Lu Xiping feel relieved. He said cautiously, "Have you ever thought that Shuoguo Culture can actually win over Wu Bing? He is a director and does not have any messy agency contracts. It is only because he has been promoted by Fu Chengguo that he maintains good relations with Century Huayue and Spreadtrum. If Century Huayue withdraws from the project, Wu Bing will be helpless in the crew. In this case, as long as you extend a little hand, Wu Bing will definitely grab this life-saving straw..."

What he said made a lot of sense, and Li Shuo even felt a flash of inspiration in his mind: he didn't have any bad feelings towards Wu Bing, and he even liked him more than Lu Xiping. After all, that guy embezzled public funds and gave the money to him, and the reason was to help Fu Chengguo pursue Qiu Cixian...

Think about it from another angle. If Li Shuo calls Wu Bing's boss, then Wu Bing will also be Li Shuo's lackey. He must have done this for Fu Chengguo more than once or twice. So if Li Shuo wants to play with the hidden rules of the entertainment industry in the future, he will have people who are familiar with this industry...

"In addition, if Wu Bing can sign with Shuoguo Culture, our control over the crew will completely overwhelm Spreadtrum and Chen Xiaoqi. All the senior executives will become our own people, which will be very beneficial for the subsequent filming..."

After Lu Xiping finished speaking, Li Shuo was almost certain that he wanted to win over Wu Bing, but he still did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked with a straight face: "Can you contact him?"

"Of course!"

"Well, give him a call and have him show up in front of me within 5 minutes. I want to take Qiu Cixian shopping, but we are not familiar with this place, so we need a guide..."

"no problem"

Lu Xiping stood up and made a phone call. Qiu Cixian asked Li Shuo curiously, "What happened?"

Li Shuo thought about it and briefly described the matter.

Qiu Cixian covered her mouth in surprise: "Your Chinese entertainment industry is really..."

I wanted to say "strict hierarchy", but I thought that my man was at the top of the pyramid, so I didn't continue. Instead, I turned around and asked, "Then why did you call Director Wu out? Why didn't you agree to him immediately?"

In Qiu Cixian's heart, she naturally didn't want anyone to disturb her date with Li Shuo.

Li Shuo smiled and said, "People fear power but not virtue. If I forgive Wu Bing so easily and remove his seal, he will not be afraid of me. So, the chance I give him is to let him come to me. He will try his best to please us and go through untold hardships to get my forgiveness..."

Qiu Cixian's beautiful eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized: So this is the thinking of the superior.

In her eyes, Li Shuo seemed to be radiating brilliance from head to toe.

Wu Bing arrived at the coffee shop within 5 minutes. "I heard that Mr. Li wanted to go shopping, so I came here immediately. I'm not bragging, I know this place very well... Well, there is not only a commercial street here, but also many places to play. Come on, I'll lead the way..."

From beginning to end, Wu Bing didn't even look at Qiu Cixian, and just as Li Shuo expected, he behaved like a loyal lackey...

The following tour was extremely pleasant for Li Shuo. Wu Bing first took the two to the commercial street. Along the way, he observed Qiu Cixian's words and expressions. Whenever she made a move, he could immediately understand what she wanted. When Li Shuo took Qiu Cixian into the store, he would just sit next to the cashier: Qiu Cixian bought things, he swiped the card to pay, and then Li Shuo enjoyed the beautiful woman's thanks...

After walking around for half an hour and Qiu Cixian was still in high spirits, Wu Bing took the initiative to suggest going to the cold drink shop next door to rest for a while. This suggestion touched Li Shuo's heart.

So much so that in the lounge, although Qiu Cixian muttered in front of Li Shuo, "This guy is so annoying", Li Shuo did not have the slightest ill feeling towards Wu Bing: the boss will naturally remember anyone who takes the blame for the boss.

After resting for a while, Wu Bing took the two to an amusement park. Li Shuo took Qiu Cixian to play various interactive games. This place doesn't cost much and can enhance the relationship between couples.

Especially for Qiu Cixian, who had never played this kind of game before, she was so crazy about it that she didn't want to leave until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

At this time, Wu Bing stepped forward and said, "Ms. Qiu, the filming will start in the afternoon. You don't want Mr. Li to be late, do you? Today is his first day on the crew..."

In the end, Qiu Cixian hummed twice and followed Li Shuo back to the crew...

Before entering the holiday villa, Li Shuo patted Wu Bing on the shoulder and whispered in his ear: "I will discuss with Chen Xiaoqi this afternoon to split the filming work of the crew into two. You will share the general work for Chen Dahai first..."

Although Wu Bing performed well, Li Shuo still did not give him the full package. Wu Bing was very satisfied with this arrangement, and he looked flattered, lowering his head and assuring, "Please rest assured, I will do everything for the crew beautifully..."

So Li Shuo promised casually: "After the filming of "The Temptation of Returning Home" is finished, I will let you sign a contract with Shuoguo Culture. There are still a lot of projects to be launched there, and there will be no shortage of opportunities for you..."

"From today on, I belong to Mr. Li..."

Wu Bing promised immediately, then looked around and saw that everyone was immersed in the filming. He then came to Li Shuo and whispered, "Actually, I still had some contact with Mr. Fu before. Mr. Fu took good care of me, so I will keep his past affairs confidential. But there is one thing I can share with you, that is, Century Huayue has decided to withdraw from the crew..."

"According to Mr. Fu, Century Huayue doesn't want to suffer too much loss, so they want the crew to take over the 2000 million yuan they invested and the various music they produced for "The Temptation of Returning Home"..."
