"No matter what you say, I'm taking Naza away today!"

Cai Yinong sat on a plastic chair in the production office, staring coldly at Jiang Sanshi, who was smiling obsequiously across from her.

As a veteran company in the TV drama industry, Sugarman surpasses Huanrui Century in both size and output, and her position in the company is also higher than Jiang Sanshi's.

Since this matter is unlikely to be resolved peacefully, Cai Yinong has no reason to give him a friendly look.

Jiang Sanshi cursed inwardly, but smiled and said, "President Cai, I've already started filming here. It's a bit unfair of you to call people away at the last minute, isn't it?"

"Hmph! You're talking to me about being kind?"

Cai Yinong scoffed, "You told Lin Yufen you wanted Hong Kong stars to play the male and female leads, so I brought that guy over as a supporting actor. And now who are the male and female leads? Who's the unethical one here?"

"Did Yang Mi's casting as the female lead disgrace Nezha?"

Jiang Sanshi's tone hardened, sensing that Cai Yinong was being unreasonable.

Cai Yinong retorted, "We positioned Nazha as the lead actress. Now you're making her a supporting actress, which is affecting our company's future strategy. I'm already being lenient by not demanding compensation from you; do you really expect us to keep her on the team?"

"That's not what you just said!"

"If you could replace the male and female leads with Hong Kong celebrities, I could keep them too."

"impossible."

Jiang Sanshi frowned, his refusal crisp and decisive.

Cai Yinong hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to back down: "If you can replace the male lead, I can keep the person too."

"Why the hell should I replace the male lead?"

Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone Jiang Sanshi, who is a company executive and film producer.

Cai Yinong sneered, "Since that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about. I'll take them away now..."

"Who are you taking away?"

The sound of the door opening carried a question into the office.

Cai Yinong froze, Jiang Sanshi raised his eyebrows to look, Wang Weili stepped in, and Na Zha followed closely behind.

Having assessed the situation inside the office, Wang Weili approached Cai Yinong and asked with a smile, "Sister K, you came all the way from Shanghai, who are you taking away?"

"It's only been a few days, and you've transformed into a producer."

Cai Yinong lowered her eyes and spoke in a neutral tone.

Wang Weili nodded: "I still have a lot to learn. This time, I'm just a figurehead producer."

Do you still need to study?

Cai Yinong stood up from the plastic chair and looked Wang Weili up and down seriously: "I've been in the entertainment industry for decades, and I've only ever stumbled here with you. And you're telling me you still have to learn?"

Jiang Sanshi's eyes lit up, sensing that there was more to Wang Weili's contract termination than met the eye.

Naza stood at the door with her lips pursed, worried that Cai Yinong would take her away.

Wang Weili ignored Cai Yinong's unreasonable arguments: "Sister K, I've never liked talking about the past. Let's talk about the present."

"OK!"

After venting her frustrations, Cai Yinong didn't want to say much more to Wang Weili.

"I'm taking Naza with me. Do you have any objections?"

"no."

Wang Weili's decisiveness drew attention.

Cai Yinong was surprised and suspicious, Jiang Sanshi was astonished but understanding, and Nazha was nervous but relieved.

Willie will definitely help me get it sorted out!

Na Zha thought to herself, not believing that Cai Yinong could take her away at all.

Cai Yinong stared at Wang Weili for a while, thinking to herself that this kid was not that simple and probably had more tricks up his sleeve. Let me test him first.

"I'm taking Naza with me. Do you have any other requests?"

"Let's follow the contract and compensate as normally as possible!"

"You want compensation too?"

"Otherwise what?"

Wang Weili glanced at Cai Yinong with a puzzled look, as if asking her why she had the illusion that she didn't need to pay compensation.

Cai Yinong retorted, "Your production team told Lin Yufen that they would cast Hong Kong stars as the male and female leads, which is why I cast Nazha as the second female lead..."

"We didn't say that."

Wang Weili immediately rejected the idea, silencing Cai Yinong.

Jiang Sanshi leaned back, giving Wang Weili a truly high regard.

Cai Yinong's expression was uncertain. She knew that arguing about this matter would not yield any results. If she really wanted to take Nazha away, she would still have to pay the compensation she was owed.

"You win! Then let's go by the contract. Anyway, it's only just started and there's not much money involved, right? That's fine."

Cai Yinong stared at Na Zha with a kind look in her eyes, thinking to herself, "You little vixen, you cooperated with Wang Weili to sell the company. Just wait and see how I deal with you when I get back."

Naza shivered, sensing the darkness ahead...

"K-sister, you've disappointed me quite a bit."

"Um?"

Cai Yinong was taken aback: What gives you the right to say such things?

Wang Weili looked at Cai Yinong with regret: "Do you think it's difficult for a production crew like ours to find a female star with a suitable level of fame in the industry on short notice?"

"...It's hard to say."

Cai Yinong could only remain defiant, but Wang Weili's subsequent words rendered her unable to maintain her composure.

"As long as Nazar leaves, we can confirm a new second female lead today, and she can join the crew tomorrow. The entire crew will suffer almost zero losses, and we can even earn a compensation payment."

"What did you lose? A very likable second female lead, an opportunity for Nazha to grow quickly, and also caused the artist to become alienated from the company."

"The popularity of 'Xuan-Yuan Sword' gave me basic popularity in the fantasy drama genre, and Yang Mi is currently the most popular female star. As the leader in the fantasy drama market, can't you see the market potential of 'Swords of Legends'?"

Cai Yinong was speechless.

She certainly saw the potential of "Swords of Legends" and could even guarantee that the show would have a place in the market next year.

However, the combination of Wang Weili and Yang Mi made her lose her sense of proportion and fail to weigh the pros and cons.

Now, after Wang Weili's review, his mind quickly calmed down, and thoughts of the pros and cons began to emerge.

Cai Yinong glanced at Naza and thought to herself that if she took him away now, Naza would probably terminate the contract, and then she would really have nothing left.

Seeing Cai Yinong hesitate, Wang Weili said, "Sister K, in my heart, you have always been an outstanding career woman."

"If you were truly outstanding, would you still have terminated your contract?"

Cai Yinong gave a self-deprecating laugh, but she still couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart.

"No, how could you think that?"

Wang Weili approached Cai Yinong and stared at her very sincerely.

"You pioneered the Legend of Sword and Fairy series and the Legend of the Condor Heroes series. You and Tangren practically created the domestic fantasy drama genre. Looking at the entire film and television industry, can you find another powerful woman like you?"

Cai Yinong was slightly moved, and her gaze towards Wang Weili was no longer so sharp.

Wang Weili continued, "Back when Brother Hu had his accident, you made the entire crew stop filming and wait for him. You always know what's best for the artists."

Cai Yinong moved her lips, but did not speak.

She stared at Wang Weili, at his bright, piercing eyes, trying to find some scheming or cunning, but all she found was naked sincerity and earnestness, which was truly moving.

There's really nothing to discuss about this.

Wang Weili has made the pros and cons very clear. Even if Nazha leaves, the crew will suffer no loss. On the contrary, it will make Nazha dissatisfied with the sugar figurine.

Conversely, if Naza stays in the production team, she can gain even more popularity through this drama, allowing Tangren to reap the rewards of her hard work.

Cai Yinong pursed her lips, feeling that her calmer mind was indeed less prone to acting impulsively. Or, to put it another way, adults talk about business; who has time to engage in life-or-death struggles every day?

"Naza, remember to add me back later."

"Oh? Oh, okay, I'll add it right now!"

Naza quickly took out her phone to operate it, but Cai Yinong didn't even glance at her and turned to leave.

Jiang Sanshi stared blankly at this scene, speechless, and gave Wang Weili a thumbs up.

Wow, that's awesome, bro!

Another person was also impressed by Wang Weili's actions.

That's the kind of fan who followed you all the way from the practice room to see the gossip.

She originally just wanted to witness the moment when Naza was taken away by Cai Yinong, but instead she saw Wang Weili easily handle Cai Yinong...
