C194 I Have the Backing of the Latin Group
Chiang Qi's expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to scold Chiang Qi, he looked at Lin Yin with a serious expression.
Lin Yin's expression remained the same. He sized Bi Xinyu up.
This arrogant woman looked very familiar. She looked like a celebrity who often appeared on TV.
Bi Xinyu was dressed very fashionable, and her facial features were very pretty. She was considered a great beauty, but her temperament was a lot worse.
Lin Yin did not say anything. He picked up the tea and drank it himself. His eyes signaled Chiang Qi.
Chiang Qi looked at Bi Xinyu and said seriously, "Lady Bi, right? Hello. I am the person in charge of Ocean Group, Chiang Qi."
Bi Xinyu was surprised when she heard that. Clearly, she was shocked by this self-introduction. It took a long time before she returned to normal. Her expression was still a little skeptical.
"You are? Chairman Jiang of the Ocean Group?" Bi Xinyu asked.
She had only heard that a senior executive from the Ocean Group had come and suddenly changed the director and the person in charge of the production. She did not expect that the chairman of the Ocean Group, Chiang Qi, would be present personally.
"Yes, Madam Bi. Regarding the change of the director of the production, it's an internal matter of our company. Are you dissatisfied with anything?" Chiang Qi said calmly.
He knew Bi Xinyu's background. She was a big star in Imperial City. She was quite famous in the film and television circles. Especially because she had been in Imperial City circles, Bi Xinyu had made friends with many influential people in Imperial City. That was why she was so domineering. Back then, she had arranged for the entire production team to serve her alone.
"Director Chiang, I am very dissatisfied with this matter!" Bi Xinyu said with dissatisfaction, "I came to East Sea Province to collaborate with Ocean Group to shoot this ancient dramas. You know who I am doing this for. We have already signed the contract. I will be in charge of everything in the crew."
"Even if the director is a member of your Ocean Group, if you want to change the director, you have to inform me in advance and ask for my opinion!" Bi Xinyu said forcefully.
She did not care who the people from the Ocean Group were arranged to be, but she wanted to be the director who could give her the best treatment. Furthermore, she was as obedient as a pug. Most importantly, she changed the person without notifying him. This was totally not giving her any face.
Chiang Qi looked hesitant. The film studio's ancient dramas were an important part of the publicity for the World City project. Back then, he had asked a friend in Imperial City to spend tens of millions of dollars to invite Bi Xinyu to be his spokesperson.
However, he did not expect this person to have such a big problem. Even if he changed the director, he would still come and look for trouble.
"Ms. Bi, this is the internal management of our group. What do you want from me?" Chiang Qi asked seriously.
"It's simple. Pay up." Bi Xinyu said straightforwardly, "This is a violation of the contract. According to the contract's compensation, 200 million."
Lin Yin put down the teacup and looked at Bi Xinyu. He really dared to say that 200 million was a big deal for an actor. Dare to challenge Chiang Qi? She probably thought she had some background.
After that, he looked at Chiang Qi. Chiang Qi looked nervous. He felt embarrassed in front of Director Lin again. The image spokesperson that he had invited had come knocking on his door.
"Madam Bi, are you joking? You want to use the contract and ask me to pay 200 million yuan?" Chiang Qi asked in a deep voice.
"Ha." Bi Xinyu sneered and said with a fearless expression, "According to the contract, if your Ocean Group violates the contract, you will have to pay me five times the performance fee. This is written in black and white. Do you want me to sue your company?"
"Right, don't even think about changing your attitude and becoming a director. It's useless! You did not notify me and changed the crew members without permission. It's already a violation of the contract." Bi Xinyu said forcefully, "If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will hire a lawyer to file a lawsuit."
What kind of explanation do you want? " Lin Yin asked.
Bi Xinyu looked at Lin Yin. "Who are you?" she asked. Do you have the right to speak on behalf of the Ocean Group?"
"Director Chiang, I hope you won't interrupt me when I'm talking to you." Bi Xinyu said bluntly.
A person dressed in cheap clothes was not qualified to talk to her.
"The explanation I want is very simple. Follow the contract and compensate 200 million. The matter of Ocean Group breaking the contract is one thing. I will continue to shoot this movie for you and fulfill your company's obligation to endorse your image." Bi Xinyu looked at Chiang Qi and said playfully, "Otherwise, I guarantee that your company will lose far more than 200 million."
Chiang Qi looked angry and asked, "What do you mean?"
He had been in business for so many years, but this was the first time he had met an actor who threatened his boss.
"What do you mean?" Bi Xinyu had a playful expression on her face and said without any fear, "Director Chiang, let me tell you the truth. The Latin Group has already paid a high price to hire me to endorse their company's image. "I didn't go because of Director Li. Now, you all don't respect me. You broke the contract unilaterally and still refuse to compensate me. "I can only choose to go to the Latin Group."
"Are you asking me to call Director Wang of Imperial City?" Chiang Qi said in a deep voice. He was furious because this woman was too arrogant.
"Director Wang? Chief Wang is just my business partner. He can't restrain me." Bi Xinyu said casually.
Chiang Qi frowned slightly. Although they were both celebrities, Bi Xinyu and Hu Jingwang were very different. This woman opened her own film company and had people backing her in Imperial City. It was very difficult to cut off her path.
However, on what basis did she fight against the Ocean Group?
"Bi Xinyu, how dare you threaten our company? Do you think the Ocean Group can't do anything to you?" Chiang Qi asked in a deep voice.
Bi Xinyu sneered, "Director Chiang, Aren't you overestimating the Ocean Group? "I have the Latin Group backing me, would I be afraid of you? "How long do you think your group can last in the East Sea Province?"
She had been roped in by the Latin Group a long time ago. This time, the Ocean Group wasn't willing to pay a high price, so she couldn't be bothered with them. In any case, whoever paid the most would follow them. With the protection of the Latin Group, the Ocean Group wouldn't dare to do anything to her!
Chiang Qi was very annoyed by what he said. He looked at Bi Xinyu coldly.
"I will give your corporation a day to consider. It is to compensate me with 200 million yuan. I will turn to the Latin Group to sue you. I will make you pay. I will make your group betray the contract and lose its spokesperson." Bi Xinyu said impolitely. Her tone was very firm.
"The Latin Group is backing you up? Don't regret your decision today." Lin Yin said with a cold smile.
Bi Xinyu looked at Lin Yin coldly, "Haha, are you trying to scare me? You look like a dog from the Ocean Group. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me? Don't let me meet you on the road in the future. "
"Director Chiang, since your company isn't willing to pay up, then wait for the lawyer's letter." Bi Xinyu turned around and left.
