Chapter 242 Rejection
At this time, Chen Lei stammered and said to Xu Damao: "Mr. Xu, what kind of trick are you playing?"

Xu Damao raised his eyebrows indifferently.

"What's the matter? It seems that Director Chen doesn't like me."

Xu Damao's exclamation made Chen Ziqiang who was standing beside him puzzled.

"Mr. Xu is really good at joking, you are not a professional actor."

Chen Lei looked at Xu Damao with a half-smile, and continued to say the unsatisfactory words.

"I really can't see that Mr. Xu still has an ideal of being an actor."

Xu Damao nodded calmly after hearing the words: "Yes, I just don't know if the directors will give me this chance."

"This···"

After Chen Lei saw that Xu Damao didn't seem to be joking, his expression suddenly changed.

At this time, Xu Damao felt happy when he saw Chen Lei like this.

"I don't know what my idea is, Director Chen?"

Chen Lei stared at Xu Damao and Chen Ziqiang, and couldn't tell for a while what kind of trick this was.

"Mr. Xu, you... are you really going to replace Wang Zuxian? That's a female character."

Chen Lei looked in disbelief, afraid of missing any of Xu Damao's decisions.

"Of course I know that I can't replace Wang Zuxian, but I am the one who signed the contract. If it's because of the film crew, I don't think there is any need to talk to me about compensation."

Xu Damao said it with confidence, no one thought that he would use this trick to recover the company's losses.

"How can this be done, Mr. Xu! You are simply not following the rules."

"Rules? What rules do I need to tell you immoral guys?"

Chen Lei saw that Xu Damao was trying to tear himself apart from him, so he immediately tore off the mask of hypocrisy, and there was no need to put it on.

"Okay, since that's the case, we don't need to do these superficial tricks."

Xu Damao smiled disdainfully: "I want to see what other tricks you have."

"you!"

Chen Lei originally thought that if he came to Xu Damao today, at least there would be a good solution, but now Xu Damao's attitude clearly shows that he is playing hard in front of him.

"I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be really tough! It's just a pity that you don't seem to have any commercial value. According to the contract we signed, Mr. Xu still has to compensate us for our losses."

Chen Lei's complacent look immediately made Chen Ziqiang feel that something was wrong.

"I don't think you need to stay here and be aggressive. Regarding the contract, our company will naturally give a reasonable compensation plan, and it's definitely not just giving you as much as you want."

Looking at Chen Ziqiang who had a tough attitude, Chen Lei looked down on this golden broker of Bay Island from the bottom of his heart.

"The famous Manager Chen, wouldn't think that he can call the wind and rain in the mainland, right? You can't decide here."

Apparently, Chen Ziqiang's dismounting was of no use to Chen Lei.

"Instead of you and I being in a stalemate here, if Mr. Xu is willing to come to apologize, the issue of compensation is not a difficult matter to deal with."

The purpose of Chen Lei's trip is not just to get money.

What's more, those of them who claim to be bigwigs in the Beijing circle want to regain the face they lost that day from Xu Damao.

When Xu Damao heard Chen Lei making such a rigid request, he immediately felt very irritated.

"What a joke, I want me to apologize to you, and I don't want to see how many good days you have left."

Long before that, Xu Damao had made an agreement with Wang Zuxian that if Wang Zuxian became a celebrity, the first thing to be cleared up would be their remnants.

Xu Damao's brash words made Chen Lei's anger at a loss what to do: "With Wang Zuxian's beauty, she is one of the best in the circle. If Xu Zongzhen is going to put the treasure on her, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret it."

Chen Lei actually doesn't care about Wang Zuxian's future, what kind of big changes will happen.

Taking Xu Damao's lack of flexibility, Chen Lei has almost confirmed that Wang Zuxian will not become a superstar as Xu Damao said.

"Since there is nothing to talk about, we can only go through the judicial process."

Chen Lei originally thought that Xu Damao's attitude would definitely change when he said this, but Xu Damao was still indifferent, which made Chen Lei unpredictable.

"If you want to sue, you can sue. It's no big deal. I, Xu Damao, will accompany you to the end at any time. I just don't know if your drama will be delayed."

As we all know, once the crew asked Xu Damao for compensation on the grounds of absent actors, their drama would basically be at a standstill.

And Chen Lei knew that this was the next best thing to do, and he would never do it unless it was absolutely necessary.

But after seeing Xu Damao's attitude, Chen Lei at this time can only be stubborn for a while.

"Once the lawsuit is won, plus the stagnant compensation, I think it will be a big loss for you."

When Xu Damao heard this, he immediately shook his head.

"If I stand on the plaintiff's grounds for infringing on the actress, I'm afraid it won't last for a year or so, and you won't get compensation."

Xu Damao knows that for him now, time is money, as long as this matter is delayed, the company will immediately monopolize the mainland film and television industry when the filming of Wang Zuxian and Chen Gangsheng is over.

At that time, a small guy like Chen Lei will have no chance of giving him money, let alone asking him to lose money.

"It seems that Mr. Xu is determined not to pull out a single hair."

At this moment, Chen Lei was already furious. He didn't expect them to meet such a newborn Xu Damao who was not afraid of tigers after spending so long in the entertainment industry in the Mainland.

Xu Damao waved his hand, motioning for Chen Ziqiang to see off the guests.

Chen Ziqiang immediately stepped forward and made a kiss with understanding.

"Okay, you guys are so ignorant! I don't think there's any need to give you a good face."

In Xu Damao's eyes, Chen Lei's clamor was nothing more than an angry and corrupted animal.

"It's not that I don't give you face, it's that you don't deserve it, send off!"

As soon as Xu Damao said this, Chen Ziqiang immediately called the security guard from outside the door.

"You guys drive them out!"

Chen Lei saw that the security guards who came up were going to be rough on him, and immediately blocked the bodyguards he had brought with him.

"Xu Damao, don't blame us for being unrighteous if you are unkind!"

Chen Lei left Xu Damao's company without looking back after the harsh words, leaving only Chen Ziqiang with a worried face muttering in front of Xu Damao.

"Mr. Xu, what should I do? I offended so many good directors at once."
