Chapter 2181 - 2181 Twins

2181 Twins

When Jiang Mingfan heard this, he could only say apologetically to Lu Mingjue, Mr. Lu, Im sorry. I have something urgent to attend to. I have to excuse myself first.

Lu Mingjue could only say, Then go ahead with your work.

After Jiang Mingfan left, Qiao Weiyang frowned slightly.

Lu Mingjue said, Lets wait for him to come back. Theres no hurry.

Jiang Mingfan quickly walked out and found a.s.sistant Director Qian Jiayi.

Qian Jiayi was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. There was a smile in his dark eyes, and he looked a little difficult to deal with.

Seeing Jiang Mingfan, Qian Jiayi smiled and said, Director Jiang, have a seat.

Jiang Mingfan sat down.

Qian Jiayi asked, Do you want tea or coffee? Ill get my a.s.sistant to prepare it.

a.s.sistant Director Qian, if you have anything to say, why dont you just say it? I still have guests waiting for me. I really dont have much time to waste. As you know, Im the one who arranged to shoot the commercial today.

In that case, Director Jiang, Ill get straight to the point. Your commercial cant be filmed.

There had always been undercurrents between Jiang Mingfan and Qian Jiayi.

Jiang Mingfan had been in the position of director for several years, and Qian Jiayi, as a rising star, had long coveted his position.

The two of them had always fought openly and covertly, but on the surface, they were still harmonious.

This was the first time they were so direct.

Jiang Mingfan immediately said, a.s.sistant Director Qian, what are you saying? Ive signed a contract with Qiao Weiyang. The studio today has already been booked. Why cant I shoot the commercial?

Qiao Weiyang needs to be replaced. Qian Jiayi placed a photo on the table. Now, we want to use Tian Jingyao!

a.s.sistant Director Qian, Qiao Weiyangs contract has been signed. Shes also waiting outside. Weve also observed her data and image before. Shes the best candidate. Its a little unreasonable to replace her just like that, no?

Director Jiang, youre wrong. What Qiao Weiyang has done in the past few days is very ugly. How can a female artiste make a comeback in the future if shes involved in scandals like drug abuse? Dont tell me you want our lipstick to be a.s.sociated with this kind of stuff?

Didnt you see that she has already clarified it? The police from two districts have also released the results of her examination to confirm that she didnt do those things in the past or now. Theyre just false rumors!

But our new candidate, Tian Jingyao, has a clean family background. Her father is the big shot director, Tian Guang. She was also nominated for Best Actress for her previous work. Compared to Qiao Weiyang, shes more suitable. Qian Jiayi pushed the information to Jiang Mingfan. The higher-ups have already agreed to my decision and agreed to replace Qiao Weiyang at the last minute. Im sorry, Director Jiang. Im doing this for the overall development of the brand, not for personal benefits.

Jiang Mingfan did not expect him to go past him and communicate with the higher-ups behind his back. He even made a decision that he did not know about.

Obviously, Qian Jiayi would use this as a stepping stone. It was only a matter of time before he replaced him.

Qian Jiayi tidied his clothes and shook his head. Director Jiang, I advised you before that if anything happened to Qiao Weiyang, you should get rid of her as soon as possible. But you didnt listen.

Ill call the higher-ups and negotiate with them.

Its useless. Qian Jiayi took out the doc.u.ment that had been stamped. The matter has already been decided.

When Jiang Mingfan saw the red stamp on the doc.u.ment, he knew that Qian Jiayi was right. It was indeed useless for him to insist.

Even though Qiao Weiyang had already cleared her name, Qian Jiayi still convinced the higher-ups to give up on her and hire Tian Jingyao instead.

Although Tian Jingyao had achievements in her career, her image and temperament did not match GK.

Jiang Mingfan shook his head and turned to leave.

Qian Jiayi pressed his cell phone and made a call. Director Tian, Yao Yaos matter has been settled. We can start filming now.

Okay, thank you, Director Qian. Tian Guang happily accepted.

Theres no need to be so polite. Yao Yao is also someone I think highly of. She has both achievements and exposure. Its much wiser for us to use her than Qiao Weiyang.

Tian Guang was obviously very satisfied. Thank you, Director Qian.

Tian Guang put down his phone in satisfaction. Previously, Qiao Weiyang had asked him over the phone to clarify that she never took drugs, and his answer only exacerbated her plight.

Even though Qiao Weiyang had already clarified things to the public and many believed her, as long as he showed some hesitation when talking about the matter, some people would still be brainwashed by him.

Jiang Mingfan returned to Lu Mingjue.

Seeing that there was something wrong with his expression, Lu Mingjue asked, Director Jiang, are you feeling unwell?

No, I have something to tell you.

Then go ahead, Lu Mingjue said politely.

No, its alright. Please tell me what you wanted to say earlier first. Jiang Mingfan remained polite.

Lu Mingjues matter was indeed of great importance, so he didnt refuse. He said, When Weiyang and I were testing the lipsticks, we discovered that they can cause an allergic reaction due to excessive amounts of heavy metal. This is a self-made report.

When Jiang Mingfan heard this, he immediately took the report and looked at it seriously.

This problem is very serious! Jiang Mingfan frowned after reading it.

Quality was the foundation of a brand. If such a problem was not resolved and the news got out in the future, it would undoubtedly cause a huge impact on their reputation.

However, the report given by Lu Mingjue was not issued by a special organization, so Jiang Mingfan still had some concerns. He said, How about this? Ill take our products to a professional organization for appraisal. If there are any mistakes, Ill get them corrected as soon as possible.

Okay. Seeing that he took it very seriously, Lu Mingjue glanced at Qiao Weiyang. It was not in vain for Qiao Weiyang to spend so much time on this. Director Jiang, you said you had something to say. What is it?

The company suddenly changed its endors.e.m.e.nt plan. We wont be proceeding with the original endors.e.m.e.nt and commercials anymore. Im really sorry. Ill issue you a termination agreement. The lawyer and the finance department will also contact you for liquidated damages. Im really sorry for making you come here for nothing.

When Lu Mingjue heard this, he was furious. The other party wanted to terminate the contract at the last minute?

However, Jiang Mingfans att.i.tude was really good. He had already apologized sincerely and frankly. It was not appropriate for Lu Mingjue to vent his anger directly.

Qiao Weiyang, on the other hand, was very calm. She said calmly, Then lets forget it, Director Jiang. I hope therell be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

Her calmness allowed Lu Mingjue to simmer down. He remembered that Qiao Weiyang was unwilling to film todays commercial. She had originally planned to terminate the contract too. Now that Jiang Mingfan had taken the initiative to terminate the contract, it was good.
