“CEO Shen, I feel that my ability is limited and I’m not qualified to take on my current role. Can I…”
Shen Fanxing turned to look at the actor.
There was a burst of mocking laughter.
“This is karma, karma is here!”
“I’m afraid you’re the only one who doesn’t take fans seriously! Do you think everyone has low EQ like you?”
“This drama will definitely fail. It’s right to choose not to film it! There’s no need to sacrifice your future for such a person.”
Everyone shouted loudly below. Two more actors also stood up hesitantly.
“Sorry CEO Shen, we can’t film it either. You should find someone else!”
Shen Fanxing narrowed her eyes and stared at them for a few seconds before saying coldly, “Are you sure?”
Seeing that there was room for regret, the few of them hurriedly nodded.
“Yes! Besides, you haven’t signed a contract with us yet, right? We didn’t see the content of the script, so we should be able to choose to quit anytime, right?”
Speaking of this, they really felt lucky.
Usually, before filming, actors who had been confirmed would sign a contract in advance to prevent any unforeseen circumstances in the future.
She didn’t know if it was because it was Shen Fanxing’s first time filming, or if the opening ceremony was too rushed that she hadn’t signed the contract with them.
No matter what, it was a blessing to be able to reject this drama in the end.
The people below the stage were right. It wasn’t easy for them to get here. They couldn’t ruin their future easily.
Shen Fanxing stared at them expressionlessly for a while before blinking lightly.
“I’m confident that this drama will have good results. Do you want to quit too?”
“I…”
“You’d better think carefully before giving me an answer. You can go back on your words, but once I’ve decided, I’ll never go back on my word. If you choose to reject me now, you have to know that you’ll be on my blacklist forever.
Don’t say that I’m threatening you. I have the ability, but you don’t. I won’t be magnanimous enough to let you take advantage of me in the future.”
The few of them blushed. But with Shen Fanxing’s reputation, they had no idea what would happen in the future.
Based on her blatant rejection of the fans, her future development was set.
Everyone knew how to use various marketing methods to attract fans, but she had completely offended them.
Although she was not a celebrity, the fans she had were not inferior to some international A-listers.
The reason why everyone was trying their best to get close to her was because of her popularity and her ability.
Now that her trump card had been destroyed by her, there was nothing she could trust.
“Since you put it that way, we have nothing to say.”
Shen Fanxing chuckled and said, “Do you know why I didn’t sign the contract with you in advance?”
The few of them were stunned. Seeing the calm smile on Shen Fanxing’s face, they couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
“Because I want to give you a choice. Life is your own and your own path. I want to see with my own eyes how you choose and what kind of life you will have.”
“…”
“Since you have a choice now, fine, I’ll fulfill your wish. There’s no contract between us, so you’re naturally free to come and go. None of you can be replaced.”
Their faces darkened.
As an actor, uniqueness in the industry was very important.
Most of the characters belonged to someone.
What they didn’t want to hear was that they would be easily replaced.
If she was replaced, she wouldn’t be the only one. Without any characteristics, it would be difficult for her to stand out in this complicated industry.
In their lives, only failure awaited them.
“What are you waiting for? This place no longer belongs to you. Please leave immediately.”
Shen Fanxing stared at them coldly.
The few of them were provoked by her attitude. “CEO Shen, you should take care of yourself first. Whether we can be replaced or not is not up to you to decide.”
For some reason, Shen Fanxing felt like she was playing a prank. “You think you’re superior to a few newbies who have admitted their incompetence?”
“…”
Shen Fanxing turned to face the backstage and hooked her finger gently. Then, everyone saw a few people walking up from backstage.
Then, she walked to where the few of them were standing and bowed.
They introduced themselves.
Names and roles they played.
They were all roles of the actors who had just stopped acting.
The faces of the few people who had been pushed aside turned green.
The faces of the new guests were unfamiliar. There was no popularity at all.
Everyone below the stage fell silent.
“What’s going on? She actually prepared a backup plan?”
“How can it be such a coincidence? It just so happens that it’s those people who are going to stop acting.”
“Isn’t this an obvious backup plan?”
Someone shouted loudly, trying to smear Shen Fanxing’s reputation.
“Backup! Backup! Backup!”
Everyone followed suit and shouted.
Only then did the expressions of the actors on stage improve. They smiled coldly.
“The spare tire… means that we’re the priority. If we hadn’t rejected them today, you wouldn’t have had the chance to appear…”
One of the newcomers frowned and said calmly,
“You might not know this, but the few of us have already signed a contract with Stars International in advance. Back then, I didn’t know why CEO Shen still wanted to use us after having an actor. Now, I understand. It turns out that she had already expected you to make the choice today.”
“!!!”
“!!!” J
Their expressions changed drastically. “You guys signed the contract long ago?”
Everyone was puzzled. A few people who had stopped acting suddenly felt uneasy.
They felt that something was amiss, but they didn’t know what Shen Fanxing wanted.
Given Shen Fanxing’s personality, she felt that she wouldn’t behave herself.
The newcomers ignored their doubts.
“Moreover, even if it’s a spare tire, we don’t care. In this industry, opportunities are really important to us. As long as there’s an opportunity, we won’t miss it. We’re not the only spare tire. Who can be sure that you don’t have a spare tire?”
“The opportunity won’t come again. I thank everyone who gave up the opportunity before me. Thank you very much, CEO Shen, for giving us a chance to showcase ourselves.”
