The Hen Crows at Dawn

When President Bai went upstairs, Luo Wen's agent had already received news from media friends downstairs. At this moment, she was discussing with Shen Fu, Zheng Xi, and the person in charge of Tencent and another company, everyone excitedly imagining the prospect of this movie becoming a massive hit.

Additionally, she wanted to maintain a good relationship with Shen Wang Jia so that in the future, when filming "The Fourth Immortal Emperor," she could get Luo Wen into the cast. Shen Fu, because of the relationship between Xiao Die and Luo Wen, was also very polite to her agent, indicating that everything was fine.

Everything was going well until she suddenly heard the bad news. The agent immediately panicked. First, she called the eldest miss, Luo Wen, but the line was busy. Then she called Xiao Xue, Luo Wen's assistant.

Xiao Xue looked at her phone and said to President Bai with some panic: "Boss's wife, it's Sister Niu, Luo Wen's agent."

"Answer it."

"What should I say?"

"Just tell the truth."

Xiao Xue picked up: "Sister Niu..."

"Xiao Xue, where is the eldest miss? Tell her to pick up the phone now!"

"Sister Niu, I've resigned."

"What?" Sister Niu was shocked. "What on earth happened?"

"I can only say, she offended someone she shouldn't have." After saying that, Xiao Xue decisively hung up, then turned to President Bai and said: "Wow, that felt so good!"

Upstairs, Sister Niu called Luo Wen again but still couldn't get through. She couldn't wait any longer. Seeing Shen Fu about to leave, she rushed into the room and said to him: "Teacher Shen, I want an explanation."

"What explanation?" Shen Fu felt bewildered.

Sister Niu suppressed her anger: "I don't know which big figure in your company our Luo Wen offended, but the press conference just ended, and now you've directly announced her dismissal. Do you know how bad this impact is? Not only does it affect the artist, but it also makes people see your company as very unprofessional!"

Shen Fu and Tian Tian looked at each other. Dismissing Luo Wen? Shen Fu was about to say he didn't know about this and wondered if it was a move by another company, but the two other investors also looked at him blankly, indicating they knew nothing.

"Sister Niu, calm down first. Perhaps there's some misunderstanding?" Shen Fu reassured her.

"Yes, it must be a misunderstanding." Sister Niu was also an experienced person and didn't cause trouble without reason. "If there's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly. How about inviting the person who just announced the dismissal out? I'll also call Luo Wen here, and everyone can confront each other. There's nothing that can't be discussed."

"There is no misunderstanding!"

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door. President Bai pushed the door open and walked in, with Xiao Xue behind her.

"Xiao Die?" Shen Fu looked at her. Weren't she and Luo Wen childhood sweethearts? She wasn't Xiao Die! President Bai glanced at Shen Fu, then turned to Sister Niu: "There is no misunderstanding. Luo Wen being dismissed was my idea."

"Teacher Shen, she is...?" Sister Niu looked at Shen Fu.

"My wife," Shen Fu introduced. "Everyone can just address her as President Bai."

President Bai's eyes showed appreciation. He had guessed who she was without any hints; not bad, they were becoming more and more in sync.

"President Bai, you must give a reason!" Sister Niu was indignant, feeling that Shen Fu's company was too unprofessional, letting the boss's wife run wild like this—truly the hen crows at dawn, lawless and heavenless! And that Xiao Xue, was that a betrayal?

"That's right, the role is already set. Why the sudden change of heart?"

"Filming starts in a few days. Where are we going to find someone to save the day now?"

the other two companies also began to show dissatisfaction. Hearing this, Sister Niu chimed in: "Exactly. The contract is signed. Dismissing our artist without cause means you have to pay for breach of contract!"

"Sister Niu, right? Let's step aside to talk." President Bai smiled and beckoned to her.

"I'm not afraid of you!" Sister Niu followed, not forgetting to glare at Xiao Xue.

In the room, Zheng Xi's eyes suddenly darted around: "Teacher Shen, and various bosses, if you haven't found a replacement actor yet, I can recommend someone."

"Oh?"

Zheng Xi seemed completely unafraid of offending Sister Niu and said with a giggle: "I have a cousin who is studying acting at Beijing Film Academy, third year. In the script, the second female lead is the younger sister of the female lead. My cousin looks a bit like me; you guys take a look." She then opened her phone to show photos. Although the Zheng cousin wasn't as sharp as Zheng Xi, the beauty of a Beijing Film Academy student was beyond question.

The two people in charge thought it looked okay but didn't promise anything because Sister Niu was still outside. Although Sister Niu's company was small and only served Luo Wen, the power behind Luo Wen was very strong. If they just cut the role like that, they feared there would be trouble.

However, very soon after, President Bai and Sister Niu returned. Sister Niu's face was a bit unsightly, but she still forced a smile: "It's clear now. It turns out our Luo Wen is not in good health and needs to rest for a while, so she has to miss this movie. But I promise, the agreement to lend the stage to the film crew still stands."

President Bai smiled and said: "Although it's Luo Wen's personal issue, considering it's a force majeure factor and the movie hasn't officially started filming, there's no need for compensation. I've finished speaking; does anyone have any objections?"

"Ah, this..." The representative from Tencent and the other investor looked at each other, finally saying in unison: "No objections. Then let Teacher Zheng's cousin come for an audition and see."

Zheng Xi smiled and thanked them on behalf of her cousin. She didn't expect to pick up such a bargain; she really had to thank President Bai.

Sister Niu left immediately after. She had to find Luo Wen to ask exactly what she had done! Currently, the media would surely be posting stories rampantly; she had to find a way to suppress this so it wouldn't affect Luo Wen's future career. It was madness!

"Xiao Die, what happened just now?" Xiao Ya, who had just gotten Sun Chun Guang's autograph, came over and asked.

"Just a small matter." President Bai smiled, then said to Xiao Xue: "Contact President Guo and let her arrange work for you. I will give you a worthy position."

"Thank you, Boss!" Xiao Xue felt she had followed the right person; even Sister Niu was handled by President Bai until she was submissive.

In fact, this matter wasn't difficult. Female stars value their image. President Bai had recorded Luo Wen's cursing, hitting, and threats. These things weren't fatal, but combined with rumors of seeing a psychiatrist and her image as a wealthy young lady, labeling her with "bipolar disorder" or "short-tempered" was too easy. Sister Niu, having heard those things, decided to retreat gracefully in exchange for Bai Jiao Yue destroying the recording.

President Bai forced Luo Wen out of the movie not necessarily because of the choking incident, but because of her personality. This kind of personality, if left until the movie aired to cause trouble, would make cutting the role or using face-swapping technology very troublesome. Artists with stains must be removed from the start. She hadn't directly suppressed her, which was already showing face to Xiao Die.

Having resolved it, President Bai knew Shen Fu had many questions, so she stepped forward and took his hand. "I have a date with my husband; we'll leave first. Everyone, please make yourselves at home." After saying that, she led Shen Fu out of the hotel. As soon as they reached the underground garage and got into the car, Shen Fu buried his head in President Bai's neck...
