The screenwriter, Cao Jinxuan, was about the same age as the director. However, because of his hair loss, his hairstyle had changed to "Mediterranean", making him look very old.

He scratched his remaining hair and awkwardly handed the new script to Lin Xi: "This is the revised script, your changes to the script are a little big."

The screenwriter looked sloppy, but he was careful and listed changes to the new script on the title page.

Lin Xi had a rough look at it and discovered that his part wasn't just "The changes were a little too big", but more like half of it had been chopped off.

In the original script, she and Zhuang Qian were both female lead and female lead, but after modifying the script, she became a passerby right away.

Sister Yun also looked closer, and seeing that Bai Nianxi's scenes had been changed into a mess, she was furious for a moment, and said: "Director Feng, we have no objections to changing scenes, it's fine if you don't want to be the female lead, but to directly delete half of her scenes, isn't it a little too much?"

When Sister Yun was on her way to City Y, she had already predicted that the director would cut Bai Nianxi's segment, but it was really too much to cut so many scenes in one go.

Even in the face of Sister Yun's questioning, Director Feng Zheng did not get angry.

He glanced at Bai Nianxi who had been silent the entire time, and said: "Actually, before you all arrived, I had already sent the revised script to Tian Yi to see. Your company's upper echelons reported back that they had no objections with the new script."

Tian Yi Entertainment was the economic company that Bai Nianxi was at.

Feng Zheng had always been a cautious person, and was good at reading other people's thoughts. But regarding the sudden withdrawal of Qin’s, he was a little unsure in his heart. He did not know whether this was a normal decision made inside the Qin’s, or if it was solely directed at Bai Nianxi.

Fortunately, the film crew was not worried about investing. Once the Qin’s s were withdrawn, new investors would immediately take action to fill the gap. But the new investors wanted to change the script, to greatly cut Bai Nianxi's scenes.

As a result, after Feng Zheng finished modifying the script as required, he even casually sent a copy of the screenplay with the cuts to Tian Yi, as he wanted to test out the attitude of the Qin’s.

If this withdrawal of funds was only a normal decision within Qin’s, then Tian Yi would definitely express its dissatisfaction with the new script. However, in the end, the reply given by Tian Yi was — "Respect the crew and the director for all their opinions".

Normally, economic companies would side with their own artists, but the Tian Yi did not help Bai Nianxi at all.

From this, it could be seen that the withdrawal of capital was indeed aimed at Bai Nianxi.

Feng Zheng had a plan in his heart, which was why he made the new script.

When the Sister Yun heard Feng Zheng's words, she did not have the time to release her anger, but her stomach was stuffed with people, causing her to feel extremely stifled.

But since the company's top management had nodded, she, as a subordinate, could not say anything more.

Sister Yun held her breath, her expression extremely unsightly.

In comparison, the person in question, Lin Xi, was much calmer. She closed the script and said: "I will watch the new script tonight.

She did not complain about the deleted scene.

Actually, even if she complained, it would be useless. After all, Qin’s was no longer able to support her.

In the entertainment circle, everything was about capital. When she was an unknown actress, the reason why she was able to act out the role of the female lead of《 From the Heavenly Policy》 and act the same way as Zhuang Qian, that was because of the investment of her Qin’s in the production team.

Therefore, although she was unwilling, she could still understand the new script.

Furthermore, even though her scenes had been cut out, the people around her had not changed. This was already the additional care that the director and the screenwriter had given her.

The people she had set up in "From the Heaven Policy" were very attractive. Even if the scenes were reduced, with the good people present, she would still be able to leave a deep impression in the hearts of the audience.

Bai Nianxi's attitude made Feng Zheng a little surprised.

She was neither servile nor overbearing as she did not complain, which immediately increased his impression of her.

Seeing that she had accepted the new script, Feng Zheng coughed and said: "Tonight, we should have called the other actors in the crew to have a meal with you, so that we could get familiar with each other in advance. Unfortunately, it was rather late today and it was getting late. Moreover, everyone had been busy the whole day and were very tired, so the gathering could only be cancelled. "But don't mind it. Everyone still welcomes you to the group."

Usually, when the main actors in the movie joined the group, the director would arrange a welcoming banquet for them. He would let them get to know each other as soon as possible by eating.

However, Lin Xi had changed from the main character of the crew to a supporting actor who only played a few scenes, it was no longer suitable for her to be openly invited by other actors to join the crew.

Lin Xi originally did not care about these forms, so she nodded and said: "Everyone has been tired for the whole day, we should really take a good rest, I can understand that."

Feng Zheng was very satisfied that she knew how to behave, so after exchanging a few more pleasantries, he let her go back to rest.

When Bai Nianxi left with the new script, the screenwriter Cao Jinxuan sighed at the door, "What a pity, Old Zhao said that her acting skills were pretty good."

The "Old Zhao" he was referring to was Zhao Qi, the director of the ancient costume drama "Back Palace" by Lin Xi.

Back when《 Heavenly Policy》 had announced the list of actors, Zhao Qi had even called him and praised him.

Cao Jinxuan originally held great expectations for Bai Nianxi's performance, but now that half of her scenes were deleted, he felt that it was a pity.

Hearing this, Feng Zheng scoffed at him, "There are too many unfortunate things in the entertainment circle, it's not the first time you've met them."

But even though he said that, he still sympathized with Bai Nianxi a little.

The announcement of withdrawal made by the Qin’s at noon today, and in the afternoon, the news of "Qin Yu and Bai Nianxi about to end their marriage, and even plan to ban her" spread widely within the circle.

A good wife of the Qin’s's CEO, she was abandoned just like that, and even had to be banned by the entertainment circle. If it was someone else with a poor mental endurance, they would probably be on the verge of tears.

But Bai Nianxi, on the other hand, seemed like a smart person who knew how to judge the situation …

The reason why Feng Zheng had good connections in the inner circle of society all these years was not only because of his astute abilities, but also because he left some leeway to do things and never pushed others to the point of no return.

Therefore, when the new investors asked to replace Bai Nianxi, he rejected them. After a round of negotiations, both he and the sponsor stepped aside, halting half of Bai Nianxi's performance in the end.

But even though the segment was reduced, Feng Zheng still did his best to let the screenwriter keep the part about Bai Nianxi.

He was not stingy about being nice to Bai Nianxi at this time.

Although from the current situation, it seemed like Qin Yu was going to break off the engagement with Bai Nianxi and even planned to ban her in the entertainment circle, but things in the world changed a million times in an instant. Until the last moment, no one could guess what would happen.

Previously, he had always wanted to befriend Qin Yu, but unfortunately, he had no connections.

However, if Bai Nianxi was able to survive this crisis, laugh till the end, and successfully marry Qin Yu, then, on account of him helping her previously, she might just allow him to climb up the Qin’s …

Feng Zheng calculated in his heart and hoped that Bai Nianxi would not disappoint him.

At this time, Lin Xi had just returned to her room from the director's place. Although she wanted to study the new script, she couldn't help but feel that her mind was in a mess. As long as she calmed down, today's events would take place in her mind and play back automatically.

Qin Yu had already started to use withdrawal of his capital to target her. It was only a matter of time before the two of them break off the engagement, and it was also a good thing for both of them.

Although Lin Xi was clear about it in her heart, the love for so many years was not something that could be erased just by saying that it would be erased. She was stunned for a while as she looked at the script, and in the end, just threw the script away and went to tidy up the room with Assistant Wei Yan.

If he were to move his body, his brain would not be able to think too much.

She and Wei Yan had just finished putting away the luggage that they brought, when Sister Yun walked over with a calm face.

She walked in front of Lin Xi and said indignantly, "I just asked around and found out that the new sponsor for the production team is Zhuang Qian's backer. Because she's the same as you, Twin Ladies, she has always complained, and now, taking advantage of the withdrawal of capital from Qin’s, she is urging the new investors to replace you. If Feng Zheng did not speak up for you, we would not even have half of our scenes left. Today we are going to Y city for nothing! "

Zhuang Qian's popularity was higher than Bai Nianxi's, and she had always been brooding over the same thing with Bai Nianxi, but now that the production team had changed investors, she wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Bai Nianxi.

The Sister Yun snorted, and continued to speak: "I also heard that this isn't the first time Zhuang Qian has asked for leave from the crew. Ever since the set was switched on, she hasn't been there for as long as I asked for a leave of absence. Furthermore, the reason why she applied for leave wasn't because of her body. It was because she joined two production teams at the same time and had to go through two stalls on both sides. That's why she applied for leave on both sides.

Lin Xi did not expect to cut the drama, and that Zhuang Qian's hands and feet were still inside. However, this matter had already become a foregone conclusion, and further investigation was useless. Compared to that, she was more concerned about Zhuang Qian's show.

She asked the Sister Yun: "Does the director know that she is acting?"

The Sister Yun replied, "She applied for leave so frequently, how could the director not know about it?"

"Then the director doesn't mind if she plays on both sides?" Lin Xi could not help but frown.

The success of a play never depended on a single actor. It depended on the joint efforts of the entire crew and all the actors.

But for actors, the drama is clearly against professional ethics. As the female lead in the play, Zhuang Qian's role in the play was only second to the male lead. If she could not wholeheartedly devote herself into the play, then the play would naturally be affected to a certain extent.

Everyone wanted to work with good actors and good crew, and so did she.

Especially if Qin Yu really planned to ban her,《 From the Heaven Strategy》 would be her last movie. Secretly, she didn't want this movie to be incomplete.

"Even if Feng Zheng cares, what can we do?" The reason the crew invited Zhuang Qian to act as the female lead was because of the amount of money on her. Therefore, no matter how unhappy he was, he could only smile and welcome his. He would not be willing to do anything to others.

Speaking of reality, Sister Yun recalled Bai Nianxi's current situation.

In contrast to Zhuang Qian's bliss, Bai Nianxi did not have much work to do in the entertainment circle and her popularity was average. Now that she suddenly lost the protection of her Qin’s, anyone could step on him.

Furthermore, Zhuang Qian had requested to change Bai Nianxi previously, so she did not agree. It was hard to guarantee that Zhuang Qian would not bully her during the filming process just because Bai Nianxi did not leave.

Thus, the Sister Yun paused for a bit and said, "I will accompany you on the crew for a few more days, so as to avoid any more accidents happening during this period of time."
