Chapter 2509: Chapter 2295: Standing Out from the Crowd (Part 4)

"Oh..."

"Today, my producer talked to me, Feng Yuzhi and Feng Yuhao were both there." Zhou Yuanzhi intended to tell Shen Jiayan everything truthfully.

"Director Zhou, I know what you want to say, let Feng Yuzhi have the female lead. Look at my condition, I won’t be able to get out of bed for at least ten days to a half month, so I might not be able to participate in this film of yours." Shen Jiayan’s eyes flickered with a hint of disappointment.

"Sigh, don’t be too upset, there will be more opportunities in the future. Anyway, shooting with Boss Niu is just for promotional advertisements, and when I really shoot a film that can truly reflect my directing level, I’ll find you." Zhou Yuanzhi tried to sound sincere.

"Okay." But no matter what Zhou Yuanzhi said, Shen Jiayan knew that it was just politeness.

"Now the investments from Boss Niu and Mr. Song have not come through, so it’s always been our crew funding it ourselves, and without funds, it’s Feng Yuhao, Feng Yuzhi’s brother, who’s been footing the bill. Feng Yuhao is very dissatisfied with the crew’s current halted status. He hopes we can continue shooting tomorrow. If you can’t come tomorrow, I’ll have no choice but to replace the female lead with Feng Yuzhi." Zhou Yuanzhi couldn’t continue.

"It’s okay, Director Zhou. Being able to personally meet with you and join your crew has already made me very happy." Shen Jiayan’s eyes were filled with tears.

"Good girl, don’t worry, I’ll make you famous sooner or later." Zhou Yuanzhi, seeing Shen Jiayan’s state, couldn’t help but feel compassion and reached out to pat her head.

Just then, there was a series of rapid footsteps outside the door.

"The infirmary is here!" A crisp female voice came from the corridor.

"It’s our President Xiao!" Shen Jiayan recognized Xiao Yingying’s voice.

After hearing what Shen Jiayan said, Zhou Yuanzhi quickly turned his head, walked towards the door intending to greet, and happened to meet Xiao Yingying and Song Xiaodong walking in.

"Mr. Song, Lady Song." Zhou Yuanzhi greeted Song Xiaodong and Xiao Yingying.

"Director Zhou is here too!" Xiao Yingying replied.

"Just came to take a look." Zhou Yuanzhi said apologetically to Xiao Yingying.

"How are you, Jia Yan?" Xiao Yingying walked to Shen Jiayan’s bedside.

"Nothing serious, just some skin broken on the foot, the physician said it should take a few weeks to recover." Shen Jiayan replied.

"A few weeks? The film will be finished in a few weeks, what are we going to do?" Xiao Yingying complained.

"Mr. Song, Lady Song, I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect such a despicable thing to happen in my crew. I also have responsibility, I apologize to Miss Shen and Mr. Song." Zhou Yuanzhi said to Song Xiaodong and Shen Jiayan.

"Glass powder in the shoe?" Song Xiaodong asked Zhou Yuanzhi.

"Yes, Zhang Lijiao said so." Zhou Yuanzhi answered.

"Who did it?" Song Xiaodong asked again.

"It should be Feng Yuzhi." Zhou Yuanzhi replied.

"Are you sure?" Song Xiaodong asked again.

"In the crew, besides Feng Yuzhi, everyone else likes Miss Shen, and Feng Yuzhi wants to be the female lead." Zhou Yuanzhi said.

"What’s her background?" Song Xiaodong still asked.

"This person’s background is quite complicated, we don’t even know how many godfathers she has, her brother is also an investor in our crew, and right now, the money for shooting is still coming from her brother." Zhou Yuanzhi said.

"If the crew doesn’t have money you could have told me, since you didn’t mention it I thought you could afford it, I was thinking of settling it altogether when the shooting was done." Song Xiaodong said to Zhou Yuanzhi.

"I thought Yan Shoucheng had discussed the money issue with you and Boss Niu, but who knew that old guy believed in Feng Yuhao’s nonsense."

Chapter 2298: Do you have any conscience?

"The initial investment for this film came from Feng Yuhao, so now that he’s put in the money, he’s got the confidence to insist on making Feng Yuzhi the female lead. Earlier, Yan Shoucheng, Feng Yuzhi, and Feng Yuhao invited me to dinner, telling me the crew can’t be idle anymore. If Shen Jiayan can’t film tomorrow, they’ll have Feng Yuzhi as the female lead." Zhou Yuanzhi said.

"What’s this all about? It’s clearly on purpose! The foot’s already in that state, who can film the next day? And there’s a scene requiring bare feet tomorrow! How can someone be so bad! Do you have any conscience!" Xiao Yingying couldn’t help but curse.

"President Xiao, Family Head, don’t be angry, it’s my fault for being careless, take me back to Minghe tomorrow." Shen Jiayan said to Song Xiaodong and Xiao Yingying.

"Sigh..."

"Director Zhou, you can go back first, I’ll handle this matter." Song Xiaodong said to Zhou Yuanzhi.

"Alright then."

Zhou Yuanzhi wasn’t sure if Song Xiaodong was being truthful or just polite and couldn’t be bothered to figure it out. Anyway, if Shen Jiayan remained in this condition the next day, the female lead would have to be replaced by Feng Yuzhi.

Zhou Yuanzhi shook his head and walked out of the infirmary.

"Brother Xiaodong, can you help take a look at Shen Jiayan!" Xiao Yingying pleaded with Song Xiaodong.

"Sure." Song Xiaodong agreed.

"Family Head, it won’t trouble you, my foot’s rubbed raw to the bone and even if it heals fast, I won’t be able to film tomorrow. Every day the crew stops working costs who knows how much money, you can’t possibly wait for me to recover. It seems I indeed have no fate with this film." Shen Jiayan said and gently sighed.

"Didn’t Yan Shoucheng say if you can’t work tomorrow, they’ll change the female lead? I can heal you tonight, then you can film normally tomorrow." Song Xiaodong said to Shen Jiayan.
