Chapter 391 - I’m Here to Relay News (1/2)
Jiang Yiming’s face hardened before he yelled, “No way!”
Wu Wenhai raised an eyebrow. “Director Jiang, are you still speaking up for Lin Yan at this juncture?”
Jiang Yiming replied, “If you want to delete Lin Yan’s scenes, then you need to delete Wei Xufeng’s scenes too. After all, they acted together. Although Lin Yan’s scenes aren’t that many, they connect the story from beginning to end! Her scene with Pei Nanxu is extremely important! This movie will be ruined if you delete her scenes!”
The team had second thoughts when Wei Xufeng’s name was mentioned. After all, they knew that he wasn’t a person that could be easily trifled with.
“Since we can’t do that, why don’t you think of a solution, Director Jiang? The movie will be screened soon, so we don’t have time to find a replacement and re-film the scenes! Besides, ruining the movie would be better than losing everything, wouldn’t it?” Wu Wenhai hissed agitatedly.

If this movie suffers a loss when the time comes, I will bear all the consequences and answer to the investors personally. Meeting dismissed!”
Jiang Yiming bowed before the crew members slowly.
Everyone clammed up and the room fell silent.
After some time, someone mumbled, “If the movie suffers a loss? Isn’t this movie bound to suffer a loss?”
“I agree. Didn’t you notice how bad our movie showtimes are? The major theaters have refused to give us the prime showtimes. They allocated the midnight showtimes to us…”
“This movie was bound to be a money-spinner before that jinx ruined everything. Director Jiang has made a poor call this time and refused to admit his mistake…”
