nTranslator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

n“At the same time, Ding Jing and the Ding Family did not fall out with the production team just because they missed the first female lead. In my opinion, you won and even facilitated a perfect ending for the three parties.”

nIt was not easy for producer Ma Lei to give such a high evaluation, but Jian Tan did not look very happy after hearing it.

nThe corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and there was a dangerous look in his eyes. “The production team has such a big ‘appetite’. Aren’t you worried that you’ll ‘choke’ yourself to death in the end? If you want to force the Ding Family and me to take a step back and willingly contribute to the movie, you have to have the ability to suppress the situation, right? I want to ask, what right do you have?”

nThinking that Jian Tan was indeed smart and difficult to deal with, the dignity on Ma Lei’s face could not hold on anymore.

nShe slowly put down the cup in her hand and looked at Jian Tan opposite her. Her mind was spinning crazily, thinking about how to make things right!

nWu Fan was Jian Tan’s manager, so he was naturally not someone to be fooled. He finally understood Ma Lei’s true motive for coming over today to explain that “Zhaoyuan” was going to start filming early.

nWasn’t they “bullying their customers by relying on their big shop”? They didn’t offend either party, but neither party could escape their grasp!

nWu Fan rubbed his fingers and said calmly, ‘”Three-way gains’? Ms. Ma’s words are very pleasing to the ear, but in the end, isn’t your production team the only one who’s satisfied here? Aren’t you afraid that if you really anger Jian Tan, he will flip the table and quit! Although our Jian Tan is easy to talk to, we won’t be fooled by you like this! If you don’t have a reason to convince us today, this scene will be ugly!”

nMa Lei saw that the situation was not right and immediately continued to explain warmly, “You can’t say that! You’ve misunderstood me and Director Chen. Although Ding Jing can still stay in the production team, Director Chen only gave her a third female lead role. She can wrap up filming in a month or so. Xia Wei’s scenes are mostly in the later period, so she can’t collide with Ding Jing no matter what. Hence, this is actually a win-win situation! Don’t think too much. Director Chen is actually having a hard time.”

nSeeing that Jian Tan’s expression did not soften, she thought for a moment and continued, “Old Master Ding can accept both of us taking a step back, but he’s definitely not easy to deal with! Director Chen has been so worried about this recently that his hair is about to fall off. Jian Tan, you’re old friends with him. You should be able to understand him, right?”

n“Besides, it’s already very good that Shen Fei can come back to take on the role of the first female lead again. Ms. Bai Ye is already very satisfied with this. You actually don’t have to be so persistent! This matter is really a headache. There’s no better solution if we continue to delay it. Just take it that Sister Ma is begging you and let this matter pass, okay?”

nTowards the end, Ma Lei’s words were sincere and pleading. She knew that their production team’s actions were a little unethical. She felt a little guilty even when she pleaded with Jian Tan to be magnanimous!

nLogically speaking, Ma Lei was friends with Bai Ye and was like an elder to Xia Wei and Jian Tan. It was not appropriate for her to beg for mercy.

nAlthough Jian Tan was not in the wrong, he frowned immediately when Ma Lei behaved like this. “You don’t have to do this. We’re just stating the facts.”

nAfter saying that, Jian Tan sighed lightly. He listened to the lively live-stream of the show in his Bluetooth earpiece and was silent for a long time. It was so long that Ma Lei felt that there was nothing she could do. When she wanted to beg him again, he replied calmly, “I understand this matter. I hope that while I can understand your difficulties, you can really listen to my requests. I don’t like the feeling of being fooled.”

n“I can take a step back when it comes to Ding Jing staying in the production team, but separating her from Xia Wei’s filming schedule is my final bottom line. Ms. Ma, remember to make this clear to Director Chen when you go back. If he still finds it difficult, I really can’t help. Let’s continue wasting time. Anyway, I’m not in a hurry.”

nJian Tan stood up after saying that. He was still holding the tablet that was broadcasting the live-stream in his hand. He turned around and left. He did not care if Ma Lei had anything else to say behind him. He could not be bothered to continue paying attention to her..
