Chapter 180 - 180 Ban (4)
180 Ban (4)
A look of joy quickly flashed across Xu Kun’s eyes. He guessed that the other party’s production team must have asked him to sign the contract.
“h.e.l.lo!” Xu Kun quickly picked up the phone, and his tone became much gentler at this moment.
“h.e.l.lo, we’re the production team for ‘Running’. I’m sorry to inform you that your original plan to partic.i.p.ate in the next filming has been canceled.” A sweet voice sounded from the phone, but it said something terrifying.
When Xu Kun heard what was said on the phone, he did not react for a long time.
How was this possible?
He was one of the most popular celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry. How could he be kicked out by the production team?
Was he being rejected?
Xu Kun was very unconvinced. Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, a beeping sound suddenly came from the phone. Then, other calls came in.
“Forget it. What’s the point of just attending someone else’s variety show as a guest? It’ll save me the effort if I don’t go. The production for ‘Running’ is the most tiring!” Xu Kun comforted himself.
Even if he did not stay here, there would be a place for him elsewhere!
There was no need to partic.i.p.ate in variety shows. He could take on advertis.e.m.e.nts in his spare time. It was all the same.
Xu Kun adjusted his emotions. After being rejected once, he gradually calmed down from being impetuous.
After taking a few deep breaths, Xu Kun picked up the second call.
“h.e.l.lo, I’m from the production team of ‘I Am the Master of my Youth’. Due to some problems with the movie that you took up the male lead for, I’m informing you on behalf of the production team that you don’t need to join the production team for the time being.” After the other party finished saying everything, he simply hung up the phone.
Xu Kun clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into the tender flesh of his palms.
What exactly happened?
It was fine if the variety show did not allow him to go, but why did his role as the male lead disappear after the discussion for the movie had clearly been completed?
The roguish smile that always hung on Xu Kun’s lips had already disappeared.
The smile on his face gradually froze.
Xu Kun was originally the most optimistic about these two projects.
However, what happened next exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Xu Kun kept receiving calls from advertisers, directors of movies, or directors of television dramas.
“I’m sorry, let’s terminate our contract!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Xu. Your image doesn’t suit the settings of our television drama. Let’s work together again if there’s a chance!”
“Xu Kun, right? Your previous audition was rejected. We’re here to inform you.”
Xu Kun’s expression was a little complicated.
From the disdain of the variety show agreement being canceled at the beginning to the continuous calls of various parties canceling their cooperation with him, he was already panicking.
His good-looking face was already sweating.
No, it couldn’t be like this!
There must be other activities that he could partic.i.p.ate in!
Xu Kun’s hands had already begun to tremble. He looked at his manager, Fang Xiaonan, with a pale face, and his voice became hoa.r.s.e. “Sister Nan, show me my schedule!”
As long as he followed the schedule, he could see what work he had left.
Xu Kun kept comforting himself. It was fine. There was definitely a lot of work waiting for him!
Fang Xiaonan took out Xu Kun’s schedule, but Xu Kun s.n.a.t.c.hed it away.
His schedule was originally full, but after matching them one by one, all the activities were canceled.
In other words, from now on, he would not have a job.
“How… how could this be?” Xu Kun couldn’t accept such a blow and almost couldn’t stand steadily.
Fang Xiaonan looked at him with an unfriendly expression and said directly, “It’s so obvious. Can’t you tell? You’ve been banned!”
Had he been banned?
Xu Kun’s originally fair face turned even paler.
If he was banned, his fans would definitely gradually lose interest in him. At that time, he would have nothing!
No, from now on, he had nothing left.
What was going on?
Had he offended someone?
Xu Kun felt his body turn empty. He took a few steps back and slammed into the wall before barely maintaining his balance.
At this moment, Xu Kun’s phone rang again.
He picked it up and took a look. The name of the person-in-charge of contracts at Huayi Entertainment was displayed.
Hope instantly burned in Xu Kun’s eyes!
Yes, he still had a chance to sign a contract with Huayi Entertainment!
As long as he signed with Huayi Entertainment, the collaborations that he had lost would be returned to him several times over!
At the thought of this, Xu Kun could not help but straighten his back. His fingers no longer trembled. Instead, he picked up the call excitedly.
As soon as the call went through, before Xu Kun could say anything, he was rudely interrupted by the other party. “You don’t have to say anything. I’m just calling to inform you that your contract has been canceled!”
His last straw swam in front of his eyes. Xu Kun was furious.
He stomped his feet and roared, “What right do you have? We’ve already reached an agreement. Why should you terminate the contract just like that? Does Huayi Entertainment think that you can fool people just because you’re a little famous?! What did I, Xu Kun, do wrong? Tell me!”
The pent-up rage of the person-in-charge was ignited by Xu Kun’s roar.
If not for the fact that they were separated by a phone call, he would have thrown words at Xu Kun’s face word by word!
“How dare you shout at me? How can you be so shameless? Before I asked you, I almost lost my job! I really want to ask you how you offended the higher-ups of Huayi Entertainment. Tell me! I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. You’re finished. Just now, the higher-ups of Huayi Entertainment issued an order to ban you. Just you wait!”
At this moment, he didn’t even ask for a solution and still dared to shout at others. This kind of person deserved to be banned!
Go and wait for death!
The person-in-charge of contracts couldn’t be bothered to listen to Xu Kun nonsense and simply hung up.
