Female Novel
Chapter 924 - Which would you like to hear first?
Ye Wanwan was so busy that she only managed to get to bed at midnight. She was woken up thenext morning by a call from Ye Mu Fan.novelbin
“Hello? Ge…” Ye Wanwan answered the call in a daze.
Ye Mu Fan hurriedly said, “I’ve got good news and bad news – which would you like to hear first?”
Ye Wanwan: “Whichever~”
Ye Mu Fan: “The good news is that I talked to Xu Lin according to what you taught me – we won’tchange his plot and will retain the entire original script from beginning till end. Also, we’ll let himcome to our company and meet with Gong Xu and Luo Chen personally.”
“Gong Xu and Luo Chen put in a lot of effort in their preparations lately and performed well; Xu Linhas agreed to let us shoot his work!”
“That’s good.” Ye Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief.
Because she knew this script was Xu Lin’s blood, sweat, and tears and he had very highexpectations for it, she held a script meeting with Luo Chen and Gong Xu beforehand tostudy thescript. After they understood the script inside-out, they had a discussion with Xu Lin, whichwas whyXu Lin agreed to work with them.
Xu Lin hadn’t performed well in this industry largely due to his character – he was overly idealisticand a perfectionist. To him, art was everything.
While he worked at Emperor Sky, not only was he unable to take full ownership of his scripts, butthey always made edits and nothing remained the same.
Retaining ownership of his scripts wasn’t the biggest deal to him – the latter was the last strawwhich madehimleave Emperor Sky. He took his final work and wantedtoshoota film that was trulyhis.
Unfortunately, in Ye Wanwan’s previous life, before he could accomplish hisdream, Emperor Skycompletely destroyed it. Not only was his career destroyed, but even the company that worked withhim also suffered great financial losses.
In the end, Emperor Sky simply got rid of the portion about sacrificing for the country that wasunpopular with the public from Xu Lin’s work, “A Life and Death Struggle,” and changed it into aromance series, “The Age of Love.”
Although the show was a great hit in the end, not only was Xu Lin’s own work seized, but the soul ofhis work had even been taken away. Xu Lin was in so much pain that he didn’t want to liveanymore.
“What’s the bad news then?” Ye Wanwan asked.
Ye Mu Fan’s tone was heavy. “The bad news is that not long after we signed a contract with Xu Lin,that bastard from Emperor Sky suddenly went to see Xu Lin and said Xu Lin had stolen the work ofhis teacher, Tan Zhen Xin! He wants topursue the matter further and make him legally liable!”
“I know Emperor Sky’s dirty tricks too well – that guy, Tan Zhen Xin, wasn’t able to come up withanything long ago. His only value was that he managed to obtain a title as the gold medalscriptwriter during his early years. Xu Lin might be known as his apprentice, but in reality, he washis ghostwriter!”
“Tan Zhen Xin hasn’t squeezed enough benefits out of Xu Lin, so he wouldn’t let him go just likethat. Xu Lin wanted to leave to make it on his own, but obviously, Tan Zhen Xin wouldn’t let him offand Emperor Sky also really wanted to keep the title of a gold medal screenwriter. Even though they
knew whose script it really was, they pretended not to know and made false accusations that Xu Linhad stolen Tan Zhen Xin’s work…”
“Alright, I got it.” Ye Wanwan still sounded calm.
“Huh? You’re still so calm? Do you know that since we signed the contract with Xu Lin, our companyhas also been dragged into it? Furthermore, Ye Shao An and Ye Yiyi knew I started this companywith a friend; there’s a great chance they wouldn’t let go of this opportunity to mess with me.Emperor Sky would definitely sue our company too!” Ye Mu Fan panicked.
