After hearing Ma Ye's name, there was a commotion in the conference room. At the same time, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Aoshi, who was unsuccessful.
This result was of course beyond everyone's expectations.
Chen Aoshi and Ma Ye, one is in the first line and the other is in the eighteenth line. Under normal circumstances, there is no competitive relationship between the two, because the character who finds Chen Aoshi will never find Ma Ye.
Therefore, no one has ever compared the two together before. Today, under the auspices of Hu Shuo, the two have a chance to compete head-on. But even so, no one thinks that this competition is really serious.
To be fair, in a drama, the first-tier actor Chen Aoshi is not used, but the eighteenth-tier actor Ma Ye is used. No investor can do this kind of thing.
However, the name Hu Shuo announced now is indeed Ma Ye, not Chen Aoshi.
As the result was announced, everyone's eyes focused on Chen Aoshi's face. Before Hu Shuo announced the final result, he still had a smile on his face that was determined to win. But now that smile has completely disappeared, replaced by a look of horror.
Human haze!
Chen Aoshi was stunned for a while, then Huo Di stood up, stared at Hu Shuo and asked: "Mr. Hu, I didn't hear clearly, who will play the role of Geng Hao?"
"Ma Ye!!"
Hu Shuo replied without thinking, his voice cold.
"Why??"
Chen Aoshi asked loudly, already a little annoyed.
"He's a better actor than you!!" Hu Shuo responded with a gloomy look.
"he?"
"Better than me??"
Chen Aoshi pointed at Ma Ye with a look of disdain on his face: "How can he act better than me? If he was really better at acting than me, no one would recognize him when he walked on the street??"
"At least judging from the performance just now, he acted better than you. In addition, the level of popularity has nothing to do with acting skills!"
Hu Shuo stared at Chen Aoshi with cold eyes and continued: "There is also the issue of attitude. If I am not wrong, you probably haven't even read the script carefully. You have no idea what kind of character Geng Hao is. Is this not a character?"
The qualities an actor should have, based on the above two points, you are not worthy of playing the role of Geng Hao!"
"By the way, with Ma Ye's acting skills and professional attitude, more and more people will know him in the near future! By then, I hope you can still find the so-called sense of superiority in popularity!"
Hu Shuo added another sentence.
"hehe!"
Chen Aoshi sneered: "I'm waiting for that day!"
After saying that, Chen Aoshi stood up and walked to the door of the conference room. As he walked, he said: "People like me with poor acting skills will not cause trouble to the company. I request to terminate the contract!!"
As the first brother of Wanli Pictures, Chen Aoshi has always acted domineeringly, especially in the films Wanli Pictures invested in. The roles were all chosen by him, and he has always been the best choice for the male lead.
However, today in front of so many people, Hu Shuo directly rejected his request to play the leading male role. Not only that, he also promoted an 18th-tier young actor.
Chen Aoshi was naturally furious and couldn't bear this kind of "insult", so he immediately turned his face and ignored it!!
"If you want to terminate the contract, I won't stop you! Everything will be done according to legal procedures!!" Of course Hu Shuo will not spoil Chen Aoshi. In the past, he didn't care what the other party's status was at Wanli Pictures, but now Wanli Pictures is Hu Shuo
After taking over, not to mention just a passing A-list star, even a superstar, showing off his face here, Hu Shuo will treat him the same way!
Nowadays, some so-called celebrities are just spoiled. They are just an artist and make themselves look like they are so great. Especially there are many so-called famous actors like Chen Aoshi who think very highly of themselves. They play big names and put on airs.
However, Hu Shuo has absolutely zero tolerance for this kind of behavior and will never want such an artist in his company!
"Mr. Tian, how long does his contract with the company last?"
Hu Shuo turned around and asked Tian Kai.
"There's still more than a year." Tian Kai responded truthfully.
"What is the liquidated damages for unilateral termination of the contract?" Hu Shuo asked again.
"For Chen Aoshi, it would cost almost 300 million." Tian Kai thought for a while and replied.
Wanli Pictures is not the previous Dabo Entertainment. When an entertainment company with a certain scale like this signs actors, the contracts are extremely harsh, and the liquidated damages are also sky-high, especially for actors with a certain reputation like Chen Aoshi.
, after signing the contract, the company will use all its resources to support it, and the cost is very high.
Therefore, if the contract is not strongly binding on the actor, the company will suffer huge losses once the actor unilaterally breaches the contract.
After learning about Chen Aoshi's contract situation, Hu Shuo sneered and glanced at the other person who had already walked to the door: "When you come to the company to terminate the contract tomorrow, remember to bring 300 million in liquidated damages!"
"Okay, you can go!!"
After saying that, Hu Shuo ignored Chen Aoshi and continued to announce the candidates for other roles in "Heart Blossoms".
After hearing the figure of 300 million liquidated damages, Chen Aoshi seemed to have been shocked by an electric shock. He suddenly became more awake and his steps subconsciously stopped.
Chen Aoshi was used to being arrogant in the past, so when anger welled up in his heart, he ignored it and even forgot that he had to pay liquidated damages for unilaterally terminating the contract.
When he suddenly heard the number three hundred million, he woke up like a dream.
As a first-line star, Chen Aoshi certainly earns a lot of money, but the problem is that his time as a first-line star is very short, that is, one or two years.
The money he earned must have exceeded 300 million, but Chen Aoshi himself did not have a good concept of financial management. After he had money, he squandered all kinds of money. In the past two years, his career has declined. He also participated in some investments and ended up losing money.
Therefore, at present, Chen Aoshi cannot come up with 300 million no matter what, even if he sells the pot, he won't be able to get enough!
So when he heard that he had to pay so much money, he was immediately confused and began to regret his impulsiveness. However, now that the words had been spoken and others had walked to the door of the conference room, he could not give in, so he hesitated.
After a while, Chen Aoshi opened the door of the conference room, slammed the door and left.
"Mr. Hu, Ao Shi was acting impulsively. I'm going to persuade him."
Seeing this, Xie Lan quickly chased after her. She had been Chen Aoshi's manager for more than three years, and there was still some friendship between the two. Of course, Xie Lan didn't want Chen Aoshi to be kicked out of the company just like that.
After the two people left one after another, calm returned to the conference room, but Hu Shuo's mood seemed not to be affected at all. After the lineup of "Love in the Heart" was announced, the audition for "Strategy of the Ex" also began.
