The Secret of Second Marriage
Chapter 209 I Wasn't Replaced
When I arrived at the film set, I saw Xia Weiwei's car parked at the entrance, accompanied by several bodyguards in black.
Xia Weiwei's father personally went to talk to the director, wanting to invest in our film, but he had only one request: that his daughter take my role.
I was furious. Are you trying to kill me?
Xia Weiwei was in the car, and I was standing outside, looking at her with red eyes.
I didn't want to compete with this woman, but ever since she returned to China, it seems like everything is directed at me.
I called Xia Weiwei and saw her in the car, raising her elegant head to answer the phone, arrogantly saying to me, "Jiang Man, what's up?"
"Xia Weiwei, are you ever going to stop?"
I say.
Xia Weiwei said to me in a fit of anger: "Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't see President Jiang for at least three years after he got out?"
"You promised, are you going to go back on your word?"
"Xia Weiwei, could you be any more shameless? President Jiang has already had his lawyer investigate this matter."
I personally asked President Jiang, and your Xia family didn't contribute any money or effort. Why should I break up with President Jiang? Unless you provide evidence that President Jiang was rescued by your Xia family!
I say.
Xia Weiwei felt a little guilty, but still stubbornly retorted angrily: "Fine, you're not going to keep your promise, huh? Well, Jiang Man, don't you know who you are? A divorced woman, and I, the young lady of a large corporation, can't handle you?"
Believe it or not, I can crush you as easily as crushing an ant.
You just want to get into the entertainment industry, right? Do you think it's really that easy? The entertainment industry also depends on background, seniority, and connections.
"Today I'm going to steal your role, and that's it. What are you going to do about it?"
"casual"
I say.
Suddenly, the atmosphere between Xia Weiwei and me became incredibly tense.
I waited outside the set for the director's decision.
In my despair, I suddenly thought of President Jiang, so I called him and told him about it.
Mr. Jiang told me he would handle it well.
After waiting for about an hour, I saw President Xia, surrounded by a group of assistants, come up to Xia Weiwei. He doted on her and said with a smile, "Daughter, I've secured a role for you. Let's talk in the car."
I saw the father and daughter being so intimate from not far away, and I felt both envious and jealous. As far as I can remember, my father had never been so kind to me.
I envy Xia Weiwei for having such a wonderful father.
I know that Xia Weiwei's father has made a deal with the director, so I probably won't be able to keep my role. What does it mean that I worked so hard filming for more than half a month?
In a fit of anger, I left the film set and sat down on a bench in a park in Hengdian, thinking about what I should do next.
At this time, many of my friends called me, especially President Jiang. He comforted me and said, "Man, don't be sad. I'll talk to the investors. This role is yours, and it will definitely be yours. At worst, we'll break ties with the Xia family."
"Please don't do that, Mr. Jiang. Just one word from you is enough."
I said, "Life isn't a wish-fulfillment novel. I know relationships are important in the business world. We're all in Beijing's elite circles; we can't just fall out like that. I'm fine."
I told myself to be strong, but then I suddenly received a call from the director. He called and asked me, very angrily, "Jiang Man, there's a very important scene this afternoon, where did you go?"
"Director, haven't I been replaced?"
I was surprised.
The director said, "You mean President Xia? He came to me today asking for a role, and he specifically said he wanted to take your role, but I refused."
So what if you have a few stinking coins? I've been in this business for over 30 years, what kind of people haven't I seen?
Besides, we've already found investors for this show. Mr. Xia is in the gold and silver jewelry business, so our production team doesn't need to sponsor their jewelry at most, it doesn't matter.
"Please come back to filming soon, the crew is waiting for you."
