Anyway, it was their money as long as they filmed it. There was no need to care about the profits and losses. It was also s.h.i.+ Jin’s business if she could not broadcast it in the future. The entire production team had a very relaxed atmosphere.
However, the few main leads were not in a good mood. If this drama could not be broadcasted after it was filmed, although the remuneration was in their hands, the expected exposure in the future was insufficient, so it still dispelled their enthusiasm.
The producer personally gathered all the actors together for a small meeting.
“About the news we received. We still have to continue filming this television drama. Liang Xinran’s position as the female lead will not change. As for the others, if you are unwilling to stay and film, we will pay you according to the remuneration of what you have already filmed. Then, we will terminate the contract peacefully and everyone will part on good terms. Now, those who don’t want to continue filming, go out with my a.s.sistant to discuss the exact terms.”
The male artiste playing the male lead was a very serious and hardworking person. He said, “I won’t terminate the contract. I came up from the audition. It’s good enough that I can film. No one can interfere with the future. I’ll stay and continue filming.”
!!
The second female lead hesitated for a moment and said, “Then I’ll cancel my contract. I’m really sorry. I want a better future.”
The moment she said that, a few other male and female celebrities agreed to terminate the contract. After all, everyone had better scripts waiting for them, or they had other resources to fill this gap, so they did not want to waste time because of Liang Xinran.
However, at the same time, a few main leads expressed their determination. “I quite like this role. If I can stay, I’ll stay. As long as the production team doesn’t disband, I won’t leave.”
The producer nodded. “This time, be it to part on good terms or to continue persisting, we’ll all abide by everyone’s opinions. I hope those who terminate the contract won’t feel burdened. Those who don’t, let’s not care about anything else if you stay. Just focus on serving the script and filming well.”
Hence, those who wanted to terminate the contract terminated the contract.
Because they needed to find replacements, many of the scenes of the people who were left behind had to be adjusted.
Liang Xinran said to the producer softly, “Mr. Wu, thank you.”
“You don’t have to thank me. Anyway, s.h.i.+ Jin is backing everything up. She spent all this money. You can stay and film well.” The producer did not hide anything.
Liang Xinran pursed her lips.
When the others heard the producer’s words, they felt like they had been injected with a stimulant. Everyone was used to seeing s.h.i.+ Jin turn the tables. This time, she had also taken action. Could it be another miracle?
Liang Xinran sat by the side and did not say a word. The few people who stayed behind patted her shoulder and said, “Alright, Xinran, we’re all staying behind to accompany you. Don’t worry and work hard.”
“Yes.” Liang Xinran smiled at everyone.
After they familiarized themselves with the new script, she went to the pantry to pour coffee. She saw that the few people who had left were carrying their luggage and walking out with their a.s.sistants.
Seeing Liang Xinran, one of the female artistes exclaimed and said to her a.s.sistant, “What are you doing? Can’t you see that the suitcase b.u.mped into the back of my foot?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
“I knew it. Nothing good will happen if I see a jinx when I go out. Forget it, forget it. Let’s quickly stay away.”
Liang Xinran held her coffee cup tightly.

After Yue Xiu took charge of the medicine company, Qiao Zhuoli supervised her at all times. She was indeed restrained in her actions.
However, because of Qiao Zhuoli’s supervision, she avoided making some low-level mistakes, causing her business ability to look good. This made the people below believe in her more.
Yue residence.
Yue Xiu sat in front of Old Madam Yue.
Old Madam Yue’s movements were already very inconvenient. Her hair was thin and her expression was even more mean.
The servant helped her sit up in the wheelchair.
“Grandma, this is a new tonic developed by the company. It’s good for your body.” Yue Xiu took it out.
“Put it down.” Old Madam Yue’s fingers trembled as she touched the medicine, then she asked, “How’s the company?”
“Everything is quite good, but Qiao Zhuoli is too controlling. It’s really difficult for me to do things freely. Be it research or testing, he’s especially controlling.”
