Hu Tian was immediately embarrassed, his hand frozen in the air, his face as ugly as it could be.
Ye Chen had heard the conversation between Hu Tian and Jia Rui when he parked the car earlier.
They were talking about changing the protagonist.
Because of the system task, Ye Chen was determined to secure the lead role.
So how could Ye Chen have any favorable impression of this Hu Tian?
Besides, Hu Tian was just a minor investor. WhoРІР‚в„ўs investing in this TV series?
The investor is Wan Tai Real Estate Company; heРІР‚в„ўs just a manager of a subordinate company.
Even such a small fry wouldnРІР‚в„ўt have a chance to meet Ye Chen; why would Ye Chen bother with him?
"Director Jia, sorry, I was late due to traffic." Ye Chen said with a smile.
Seeing Ye Chen, both Hu Tian and Chen Yu were stunned.
My goodness, Ye Chen is incredibly handsome, and his charisma is off the charts.
No wonder Jia Rui took a liking to him; this guy truly outshines in looks, and most importantly, he exudes a certain aura.
The role of the Eighth Prince that Ye Chen was playing was one he didnРІР‚в„ўt even need to act; just following the script under his natural pressure would do.
Hu Tian looked at Ye Chen, his expression uncertain.
What kind of background does this kid have to drive a Lykan Car?
However, Hu Tian snorted coldly, "Even if youРІР‚в„ўre handsome, even if youРІР‚в„ўre rich, isnРІР‚в„ўt it still up to me as the investor of this show?"
Jia Rui saw Ye Chen and nodded in satisfaction, "Haha, youРІР‚в„ўre not that late, we can adjust the equipment in time."
After greeting Jia Rui, Ye Chen turned to Hu Tian.
Seeing Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs cold gaze, Hu TianРІР‚в„ўs heart chilled.
For some reason, the pressure from Ye Chen made him feel a sense of dread.
Bear in mind, he was a department manager under Wan Tai Real EstateРІР‚в„ўs subsidiary, with assets worth tens of millions, and was now being intimidated by a twenty-something youth. It was too embarrassing.
Ye Chen looked at Hu Tian coldly, saying softly, "What? Are you disagreeing with me being the protagonist?"
Although Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs words were indifferent, coupled with his imposing aura, Hu Tian felt as if he were plunged into an icy cavern, his heart chilled.
But Hu Tian quickly recovered, his face turning ugly.
After all, he was a dignified manager of a subsidiary company, and Wan Tai Group was a leading real estate company in Modu.
Though heРІР‚в„ўd never met the boss behind the scenes, the background was immense.
Even if the kid had some money, so what?
Thinking this, Hu Tian gained confidence and turned to Jia Rui, saying, "Director Jia, you didnРІР‚в„ўt miss what I said earlier, did you? The lead role must be my brother-in-law, as for this kid, let him go back to where he came from."
Jia RuiРІР‚в„ўs face turned somewhat grim.
On one side was the actor he liked, on the other was the investor.
Taking a deep breath, Jia Rui said, "President Hu, I must be responsible for the quality of the film, I cannot agree to your request."
In fact, Jia Rui had been enduring Hu Tian for a long time.
Since the beginning, Hu Tian had been interfering, arranging several relatives to join. Now, even the protagonist was to be one of their relatives. Did he really think this was a privately customized family drama?
Hearing Jia RuiРІР‚в„ўs words, Hu Tian snorted coldly, "So youРІР‚в„ўre not planning to change? Fine, IРІР‚в„ўll contact Star Entertainment to replace the director."
This time, Hu Tian was ready to tear the facade and directly threatened to replace Jia Rui.
While speaking, Hu Tian looked triumphantly at Ye Chen, "Kid, let me tell you, Star Entertainment and our Wan Tai Real Estate Company share the same boss behind the scenes. Even if you have money, IРІР‚в„ўm the one who calls the shots here."
Ye Chen just laughed at this.
Wan Tai Real Estate Company?
IsnРІР‚в„ўt that my company? The boss behind the scenes heРІР‚в„ўs talking about, isnРІР‚в„ўt it me?
Hu Tian is just a manager of a subordinate company.
He wouldnРІР‚в„ўt even have the chance to meet Ye Chen, yet now he was threatening Ye Chen?
Jia Rui took a deep breath, "Fine, I can resign, but it has to be President Lin of Star Entertainment who informs me, and you donРІР‚в„ўt have that qualification."
"Lin Wanrou? Haha, fine, IРІР‚в„ўll tell her directly. If I donРІР‚в„ўt change the director, IРІР‚в„ўll withdraw my investment. What do you think she would choose?"
Saying this, Hu Tian looked smugly at Ye Chen, feeling as if he had the upper hand.
Hu Tian had already concluded that Ye Chen was just a rich second-generation trying his hand at making a TV drama.
He wouldnРІР‚в„ўt meddle in such disputes.
This way, he had Jia Rui cornered, and at most, he would tell Star Entertainment to get a new director.
After all, the same boss is behind both sides, and as the investor, they would certainly accommodate him.
Beside him, Chen Yu looked complacent; with his brother-in-law backing him, he was sure to get the lead role.
Shooting this film would elevate his popularity, especially since the movie had both Yang Mimi and Tong Xiaoya as female stars.
Jia Rui sighed.
She really liked this script and Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs aura.
But she was just a small director, after all.
In front of investment, she indeed had little say.
Jia Rui initially wanted to prove herself with this series, but it seemed she could only give up.
She had poured a lot of effort into this TV drama, from preparation to casting.
Now, she had to give up.
Because Jia Rui was a very strong-willed director, if it couldnРІР‚в„ўt be perfect, she would rather not shoot it.
Jia Rui took a deep breath, "President Hu, Mr. Ye must be the lead in this TV drama, otherwise you can replace me."
Hu Tian was also getting angry, "Jia Rui, youРІР‚в„ўre really ungrateful, do you think I really donРІР‚в„ўt dare replace you?"
Hearing Hu TianРІР‚в„ўs words, everyone in the crew got angry.
This Hu Tian was too arrogant.
Yang Mimi said coldly, "Director Jia, if you leave, I wonРІР‚в„ўt shoot either."
Tong Xiaoya also said, "If youРІР‚в„ўre not directing, I wonРІР‚в„ўt shoot either."
Jia Rui sighed, "YouРІР‚в„ўve all signed agreements with Star Company; donРІР‚в„ўt act impulsively. If anyone has to leave, itРІР‚в„ўs just me."
At that moment, a cold voice sounded, "Director Jia, I really like your style, and I wonРІР‚в„ўt let you go. No one has the authority to make you leave."
Hearing Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs words, everyone was stunned.
Ye Chen glanced at Hu Tian, "YouРІР‚в„ўre from Wan Tai Real Estate Company."
Hu Tian snorted coldly, "So, you know our Wan Tai Real Estate Company. IРІР‚в„ўm the general manager of Tai Da Real Estate under Wan Tai. Do you know my status now?"
Ye Chen snorted coldly, "Now youРІР‚в„ўre not; youРІР‚в„ўve been fired."
Hearing Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs words, Hu Tian burst into laughter, "Haha, kid, who do you think you are? Our boss? You say IРІР‚в„ўm fired, and IРІР‚в„ўm fired?"
On the side, Chen Yu was even more arrogant, "Kid, do you really think youРІР‚в„ўre President Chen, the boss of Wan Tai Group? Do you have what it takes to fire my brother-in-law?"
