I'm the director, I'm not bad

Liu Zhishi's mind was a little restless today.Holding the script in his hand at this moment, the whole person was stunned.

How could this script, which was plagiarized by Mimi, appear here?Let yourself act?
Liu Zhishi, who only felt his mind was muddled, subconsciously opened his mouth to refuse.But the moment she opened her mouth, she suddenly reacted.

This situation seems to be the same as before.

When I was shooting commercials, I refused because of Mimi.And now I reject this script because of Mimi
Realizing the same thing twice, she naturally knew the old rules and couldn't get Mimi involved.She couldn't say where she knew that the script was not only plagiarized from "Scary Step by Step", but also appropriated the characters from "Meteor Garden".

Because it is impossible for Mr. Cai not to see it.

If I talk about plagiarism again, wouldn't it be the same as putting Mr. Cai in the eye?So can't say.

I don't want to act either.

Let me act in a plagiarized work?I do not want it.

Her mood became extremely firm at this moment.

Among other things, Mimi has prepared for a year for an audition.

For a role, Liu Yifei can lock herself in her hometown in the countryside and live an isolated life for several months.

Why do I have to play a story about plagiarism, and what is plagiarized is the copyright of a book in the hands of my good friend?

Why should I abuse myself like this?

So, without even thinking about it, she said directly, "I won't act."

As soon as these words came out, Cai Yiyi was taken aback.

Li Minnian was taken aback. ????
Perhaps it was because the answer she gave was so firm that neither of them could react.Even both of them were in a trance.

It seems that last time, there were three people sitting in this office, and this scene happened, right?Did I time travel back?
But this silence didn't last long. Looking at Liu Zhishi who was so resolute, Li Minnian said instinctively, "Shishi. You. Listen clearly, I started filming after the filming of "Strange Hero", not for you to interfere with the filming."

In a hurry, he could only think of this excuse to make up for it.At the same time, he began to wink at Liu Zhishi non-stop.

Shishi!Do you know what you're talking about?
You have rejected Mr. Cai once!Still refuse now?This is not an advertisement, and it has nothing to do with Mimi.

This is the company's resources for you!
How can you say that if you don't act, you won't act. Are you stupid after drinking?Sober up, okay?

His eyes were anxious.

However, displeasure and absurdity were born again in Cai Yiyi's eyes.She unconsciously thought again:

"Am I usually too kind to you?"

Or is it that every cat and dog in this company can raise objections to me?Or do you think you are popular?

Can you ignore my orders and play tricks with me here?
So, she directly asked:

"Are you rejecting me, Shishi."

The words seem simple, but the tone is already full of rain.And Liu Zhishi shook his head first:

"I'm not rejecting President Cai."

But immediately followed by a sentence: "I am rejecting this drama."

After finishing speaking, she may feel that her reasons are not convincing, and added: "Or I don't like this screenwriter."

"Shishi! Mr. Cai, Shishi doesn't mean that." Li Minnian subconsciously wanted to make amends.

But Liu Zhishi was even more straightforward:
"Mr. Cai, Yu Zheng started his business by plagiarizing. Not to mention, "The Harem of the Qing Dynasty" is a mixture of "Golden Branch Desire" and the Korean TV series "Dae Jang Geum", and it is still being scolded. I Don’t cooperate with this kind of person! Who knows if he copied the script or not.”

"Boom!"

Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, the sound of a fist hitting the table resounded in the office.Cai Yiyi, whose hands were a little red, raised her eyebrows completely:

"Liu Zhishi, what do you mean!"

"Mr. Cai, don't be angry, Shishi is not." "Shut up, it's none of your business!"

Faced with Li Minnian's seeking love again, Cai Yiyi's patience was finally completely exhausted. "When did the company give you a play, when is it your turn to reject it!?"

It's better that she didn't say that.

Liu Zhishi still wanted to have a good talk with Mr. Cai.

She already knew about the plagiarism of this script from Yang Mi. This kind of cheating is ugly. If the company asks an actor who has no bottom line to act, then he will act.

But the problem is that she is not the kind of person who has no bottom line.I'm not particularly rich
But as the only daughter of a businessman's family earning millions a year, her way of retreat was different from others from the very beginning.Although it was a bit inappropriate to say this, she didn't mean to look down on others.

But the fact is, if she is a girl who wants to be popular and crazy, and makes some choices in her heart that go against her conscience or professional ethics at this time, knowing whether it is plagiarism or copying and pasting, she will shoot it.

Nothing.Anyway, I made money.The problem is she isn't.

The filming is over, and she won't starve to death.

She couldn't be an actress, so she returned to the dance industry with a name from Beiwu, and she was able to open a dance training class with the family's money for the last time.

What about losing money?

The family has already bought a house for her.

Her father saved her a dowry, not to mention rich and powerful, but also a dowry that guaranteed her to stand upright in the man's house after marriage.

Being an actor is both a job and a hobby.

But definitely not for those glamorous lives.It's just a play, so what's the deal with more or less pay?

Let's have a good chat and talk about these things.I want to be an innocent actor, and I will repay the company's kindness to me by improving my acting skills and better screen image, bringing economic value and brand effect to the company.

But now you let me take the initiative to jump into the dirty water? ????
In normal times, the self-cultivation cultivated since childhood would allow her to have a good talk with the other party.

Even if you slap the table, everyone can calm down and continue chatting.

But the problem is that she is already irritable today.

The headache from the hangover still plagued her to this day.And now Mr. Cai, what are you talking about?
What do you mean it's not my turn to refuse the play you arranged for me?What slave am I?
Sell ​​yourself to you?

So, she threw the script on the table and stood up: "Anyway, I won't take it."

After finishing speaking, he walked out directly without turning his head back. "Shishi! Eh? Shishi! You".
Li Minnian originally wanted to stop him.

Because of the seat, if he wanted to grab Liu Zhishi, he could actually grab Liu Zhishi with just a stretch of his arm.However, just as he raised his hand, a flash of inspiration burst out in his mind.

Or a question.

For agents, TV series and movies, what makes more money?
This question was nonsensical, but the moment it popped up, it really stopped his hand.

Just like that, Liu Zhishi walked out of the office without looking back. With the door closed, the whole space was as silent as death.

But this silence didn't last long, and Li Minnian felt a burning gaze of anger. "Li Minnian."

Cai Yinong, who clenched his fists, filled his pupils with anger:

"You brought a good artist. You really brought a good artist!" Li Minnian gathered all the thoughts in his head instantly.

Looking into the eyes of the company boss, he opened his mouth:

"Mr. Cai. No. Me"

"OK

it is good!It's the other way around, right?Well, well, well. "

After saying good things for a few times, Cai Yiyi didn't choose to get angry in front of Li Minnian's drooping head, but picked up the phone.

"Hey, come in."

Just when Li Minnian was wondering who Cai Yinong was calling, the door was pushed open in less than half a minute.Cai Yiyi's secretary walked in:
"Mr. Cai, you are looking for me."

In front of Li Minnian, Cai Yinong said word by word:

"On the basis of the original film salary, I will increase it by 10%, and I will contact Tang Yan to star in "Weird Man and One Plum". The whole company will be notified that all business activities of Liu Zhishi will be suspended from now on. Li Minnian will be demoted to a second-level agent. Effective immediately."

"Boss Cai!"

When Li Minnian heard this, he wanted to speak immediately.But Cai Yiyi is faster than him:

"Shut up! If you have time to explain to me, why don't you go back and think about how to discipline your artists! In the whole company, she is the only one who is special, right? She is the only one who would refuse, right!?"

Under the surprised gaze of the secretary, Li Minnian lowered his head again.So the secretary thought about it and asked:

"What about the date?"

Hearing what the secretary said, Cai Yinong rubbed his right fist, stared at Li Minnian and said word by word: "No limit."

So, in less than 5 minutes, all the artists, managers, and company executives in the company received this message at the same time in the work group and text messages on their mobile phones.

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.Liu Zhishi was suspended from work? ????
what happened?
No one knows.I dare not inquire for the time being.

After all, Mr. Cai personally issued this order, so he can't ask now if he wants to.But private speculation has already started brewing.

And one of these messages is quite intriguing. Isn't "Strange Hero Yizhimei" going to be filmed?
Changing corners halfway?Looking for Tang Yan?

What the hell did Liu Zhishi do?Let President Cai get so angry?No one knows.

When Li Minnian found Liu Zhishi sitting on a bench outside the company's office building, he saw that Liu Zhishi was also holding a mobile phone.

Before reading the content of the text message, Liu Zhishi said, "I'm sorry, Brother Li, I have troubled you."

Seeing that she even used "you", Li Minnian knew that her text message should be the same as what he saw.So, what about the two.

People who said that it is okay to be a dog in the bereaved family, and that it is okay to pity each other in the same disease, got together.Li Minnian took out a cigarette and lit it for himself.

After looking at the direction of the smoke, he sat downwind of Liu Zhishi. "Hu Shi Shi."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was hoarse.

But it doesn't matter.

For a "secondary agent", it doesn't matter if the voice is good or bad.Tang Ren's company brokers are divided into three levels.

There is no such thing as "three levels", and the lowest level of brokers who join the company are "assistant" brokers.After all, the word third level is not very nice.

Then there are brokers.That is the secondary broker.

The last is the external "secondary broker", and the internal "primary broker".

The reason for this distinction is that Yiyi Tsai is nominally the "first manager" of all artists.

In addition to the lower salary and business trip treatment of the second-level agent, the most important thing is the artist's share.The contract between the company and the artist, like Liu Zhishi's first contract, is 55 to 45.

This is a normal rookie contract.

After all, newcomers need resources to cultivate.

If the performance is good, after the end of the first five-year contract, when renegotiating, everyone will see whether it is 37 or 46.And out of the company's 5.5, the assistant broker gets "0.5".

Take "1" for the second level.

Level one is "1.5".

For brokers, this amount of money is the essential difference.

As far as Li Minnian is concerned, after Shishi has no activities, whether it is the third level or the second level, it is nothing more than a basic salary gap of 2000 yuan, and there is no difference.

It's basic salary anyway.With a hoarse voice, he asked:

"Can you tell me why you refused without even reading the content? What is the real reason? Are you too tired? Want to take a break? Or"

"No, Brother Li."

Knowing that she has caused Brother Li, Liu Zhishi's eyes are full of guilt.

"It's nothing to do with that. It's just the beginning of the new year, how could you say, I'm a newcomer, I'm not happy with the company's job arrangement for me, how could I want to refuse because I'm tired?"

"That's why?"

Hearing this, Liu Zhishi was silent for a while, and said, "I told you, can you promise not to tell Mr. Cai?" "Haha."

Li Minnian smiled wryly:
"What time is it, Shishi. We are just grasshoppers on the same rope, haven't you noticed yet?" The guilt in Liu Zhishi's eyes became stronger.

But don't hide it:
"Because, this script is plagiarized from a movie called "Scary Step By Step" oh yes, and the character design of "Meteor Garden". Its protagonist is called Luo Qingchuan, and its positioning is similar to Shancai in "Meteor Garden". , belongs to the kind that a man will fall in love with when he sees her. And the story inside it.”

After blurting out how the script was plagiarized from Yang Mi and why it was difficult for the law to define its plagiarism, Li Minnian suddenly raised his head.

"You mean for this script, Mimi was the one you looked for at the beginning?" "Yeah."

Liu Zhishi nodded:

"Yes. In the beginning, the people from Tianyu found Xu Xin and asked Xu Xin to show Mimi the script. It turned out to be such a coincidence that Mimi had the copyright of "Scary Step by Step". Then How do you say it? The water rushed to the Dragon King Temple? Anyway, that’s what it means. After Mimi got it, she found something was wrong, so she told Xu Xin about it.”

".What a coincidence!?"

An absurd emotion rippled in Li Minnian's heart.Seeing that he didn't believe it, Liu Zhishi tapped the phone screen:

"I'm not lying, Brother Li, if you don't believe me, I can call Xu Xin." "Don't."

Li Minnian subconsciously stopped, but his mind started to turn again.

After taking two puffs of cigarettes, the excitement brought by nicotine made the brain start to speed up. He asked, "You mean, this Yu Zheng was looking for someone from Tianyu at the beginning?"

"Yes, the person who was looking for Tianyu, Tianyu fell in love with this script and found Xu Xin and Mimi. After they found out about this, Mimi specially made a thing called a palette, which is Prove where he plagiarized.

But Yu Zheng is very smart. What he copied was not to talk about the specific plot, but to weaken the trend of the whole story for reference.As far as the cottage, it is still the kind of cottage with no technical content.This script doesn't have many wonderful intrigues like in "Scary Step by Step", it seems very straightforward.

After Mimi made the palette, she asked Xu Xin to take it away and show it to the people from Tianyu.I guess the people from Tianyu should have rejected the script, but I don't know why Yu Zhenghui approached the company.But no matter what, since I know that he plagiarized, I will definitely not accept it! "

Liu Zhishi's tone was very firm.

But Li Minnian tasted something different from it.He knows how domineering Tianyu's people are.

If they weren't so domineering, Tangren, the top TV drama production company in China, wouldn't have not cooperated with Hunan TV for so many years.

To put it bluntly, everyone's "eating looks" are similar, and they are competitors.They can't offend Tianyu, but they can hide.

And the story here will definitely not be as simple as what Shishi said.Because... that's outrageous.

How could a company as domineering as Tianyu give up a script that would not constitute plagiarism in the legal sense?My company can shoot, which has already explained the problem.

The company is going to shoot, so Tianyu will naturally be able to shoot.But they gave up.

The reason?
Although I don't know how many twists and turns there are, but my intuition tells Li Minnian that there must be an inseparable relationship with the couple.

Could it be that the people at Tianyu didn't want to offend the couple, that's why they gave up the script?hiss! ! ! !

He seemed to understand something.

Is Tianyu also afraid of these two?No, it's not appropriate to say I'm afraid.

Explain from another angle.Do they think that maintaining a good cooperative relationship with Mi Mi and Director Xu is far more important than this TV series?

if that's the case
Thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "Shishi, Director Xu is also in the capital now?"

"right."

". Then can you ask him out?"

"Yes, we both said we would have dinner together tonight."

Before he knew it, Li Minnian's eyes lit up completely.But he was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about something.After thinking it over, he said:

"Then can I call Mimi and talk about the situation?" Liu Zhishi frowned.
"What do you say to Mimi? This is our own business." Then she shook her head:

"It's better not to fight. Mimi is filming, this matter is not her business, I don't want to disturb her." Girl, you are confused!
Don't you feel that you have a potential golden thigh beside you that can make everyone in Tianyu calm down?

but it does not matter.

"Okay then, I see you are in a bad state, let's find a place to rest first. How?" "Hmm"

Hearing this, Liu Zhishi looked around and nodded:
"It's okay. I really need to find a place to sleep for a while. To tell you the truth, Brother Li, I can't turn my mind anymore. Let's go to the hotel opposite. Let me sleep for a while. How about you, Brother Li? What are you going to do?"

"I".
Li Minnian hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile:

"The child wants to eat ham. I'm here in Shanghai. I'll go to Nanyang Department Store and buy some ham for the child." "Well, good. Then I wake up and call you?"

"Okay, shall I take you there?"

"No need, I'll go by myself."

Liu Zhishi shook her head, got up with a splitting headache, and walked towards the hotel diagonally across the road step by step.Li Minnian accompanied him all the way to the door of the hotel.

"Brother Li, I'm sorry."

Hearing her words, Li Minnian shook his head:
"Shishi, although in name I'm just your second manager. But I treat you like my own sister. I will never force you to do things you don't like. So I'm sorry about this matter, and I'm sorry. I should be the one who said it. I'm sorry for not protecting you well!"

"Brother Li, don't say that you are good to me, I know." "Well, go and rest. I'm thinking about what we should do later." "Okay."

Liu Zhishi responded.

Just about to turn around, but suddenly stopped.After thinking about it, she said:

"Brother Li, I definitely won't accept this script. But, Brother Li, you are married after all, and you have a nephew in addition to your sister-in-law. If it's really stressful, you can talk to the company about it. Transfer me away, I can understand it too, and it won't affect our relationship."

"I'm not going anywhere."

Li Minnian shook his head resolutely:

"How can a brother have no reason not to protect his sister at this time? Don't worry, I won't go anywhere, I will just guard you!" Hearing this, Liu Zhishi's eyes streamed
Emotions are all moving.

But she didn't say much, just nodded with her lips pursed, and said again: ".I'm sorry, Brother Li."

"Ha, it's okay, let's go to rest." Li Minnian smiled and waved his hands.

Finally, after watching Liu Zhishi walk into the hotel lobby, he remembered that Shishi's luggage was still in the company's business car.fair enough.

It happened that he needed a calm process.

So, he lit another cigarette and walked towards the company.

When I arrived at the parking lot downstairs of the company, I contacted the driver who was quite enthusiastic at the airport before, but now he seemed lukewarm.Ignoring the other party's eyes, he didn't ask why Shishi's assistant didn't come over.

People take tea cold Well.He understands this.

Two poems, one for myself.

Alone pushing three suitcases to the elevator.

And looking at an elevator that just went up from B2, he didn't care about why the driver waited for him so ignorantly.

Not to mention the behavior of not even helping myself with a piece of luggage.It doesn't matter.

For some reason, he sneered.

Waiting for another empty elevator to come down, after pushing all three suitcases in with some difficulty, the elevator door closed.

The cleaning staff dutifully wiped the mirrored elevator spotless.

Not a single finger print.

He just looked at himself in the mirror and murmured unconsciously:
"If it's true, then the difficulty now lies in how to let Shishi complete the constraints of the last two works in the contract, right? After all... "Weird Man" is gone."

Ding dong.

The voice fell, and the elevator reached the first floor.

He restrained his thoughts, pushed three boxes and walked out.

All the way out of the office building, across the road, and finally with the help of the hotel doorman, the luggage was pulled into the hotel lobby. "This is the guest's luggage. After a while, she will come down to get it after she has rested."

After temporarily storing his luggage in the lobby, he walked out directly.Nor go far.

Going to Nanyang Department Store to buy ham and the like is all a gimmick.As he walked, he looked for a suitable place to make a call.

Finally, beside a trash can, he lit a cigarette.The smoke curled up, and the thoughts were almost cleared up.

The next step is to prove whether your conjecture is true.

With some anxiety, he found Yang Mi's phone number in his phone.Beep beep beep.
Shouldn't you be resting?

Seeing that it was less than 2 o'clock, he secretly thought.After about seven rings, the phone was connected.Sun Ting's voice sounded:

"Hi, Li Jiji, hello, I'm Miss Mi's assistant, Sun Ting. Miss Mi is practicing right now, do you have anything to tell me?"

If it was normal, Li Minnian would probably say something to come back to him when the other party is free.

But today is different from the past, and he also wants to see if Mimi really treats his friend sincerely.So he said quickly:
"Hello, Assistant Sun. I do have something about Shishi." "Sister Shishi?"

Sun Ting was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Okay, Manager Li, wait a moment."

Holding up the phone, she quickly walked towards Yang Mi who was practicing with Zhang Jin in taking photos with Baguazhang: "Sister, you have a phone."

".?"

Because Yuan Heping hadn't shown the martial arts moves of Gong Er and Ma San, Yang Mi simply practiced with Zhang Jin to cultivate a tacit understanding.

After hearing this, she stopped immediately and said to Zhang Jin, "Sorry, Brother Jin, I'll answer the phone."

"Mmm Good."

Zhang Jin also nodded politely, turned around and walked to the practice room to drink water.

After Yang Mi glanced at the caller, she went straight to the outside of the practice room and said as she walked, "Hey, Manager Li, what can I do for you?"

'

The moment he heard Yang Mi's voice answering the phone, Li Minnian felt relieved.
