The Queen of Everything - Chapter 597
Chapter 597: Explosion (1)
Replacing actors at the last minute was not a common thing, but it was not unprecedented.
It was just that this kind of thing where roles were snatched away usually happened before filming had even started. Even though they were halfway through filming, the director said that he wanted to replace the person playing that role.
There were a few similar incidents in the industry, but most of those celebrities were not famous. People like Jin Jiayu were already considered big shots.
And the person who snatched her role was equivalent to a nobody in the entertainment industry.
She was just a little famous in the talent show industry.
Now, not only did they have to deal with Jin Jiayu’s fans, but they also had to deal with the subsequent compensation issues. The production crew had already suffered a series of useless losses because of Jin Jiayu’s scenes.
Overall, unless it was not a life-threatening problem, the production crew rarely made replacements for such an important role halfway.
But now that Su Cha had promised to take care of everything, no one cared.
The difficulty was that the role of Jin Jiayu had been announced beforehand.
“The Legend of the Crane” was quite popular. When the production was announced, many fans were already looking forward to it. Although most of them were aiming for the male and female leads, it did not mean that Jin Jiayu had no fans among them.
After all, Jin Jiayu went to the battlefield during the press conference.
It was Jin Jiayu’s own fault that she got replaced, but her fans would not care.
Even if the official Weibo account of “The Legend of the Crane” did not mention the change in roles, the production crew did not sign any confidentiality agreement beforehand, so this matter was quickly spread through some channels.
Firstly, the news that other celebrities had received was that Jin Jiayu’s role had been given to someone else. Moreover, the replacement was an actress who had been chosen after filming some scenes. The one who replaced her was the contestant Su Cha who was currently busy with a talent show.
Yes, the one with an extraordinary aura.
First of all, Jin Jiayu’s backer was famous in the industry. If her role could be snatched away, who was this Su Cha?
Secondly, the marketing accounts under the celebrities started to become exposed.
Every celebrity would raise some basic marketing accounts. This was normal. Sometimes, they would expose the dirt on their competitors and compete for some resources.
There were many enemies in Jin Jiayu’s industry. Once something happened, they would be stepped on by tens of thousands of people. However, Yang Yuan did not say that he had thrown Jin Jiayu away. He only said that the other producers were not satisfied with Jin Jiayu’s performance, so they replaced her. Hence, they did not dare to say anything about Jin Jiayu.
However, not many people were happy with Su Cha’s ability to rise up. Hence, this piece of news was spread on the night the production crew announced their role switch.
News first broke out: “Recently, a major incident happened in a certain production crew, H, which has started shooting. The important role of the second female lead was originally played by the female star, J, but in the end, something happened, and she was directly replaced by S, another female star. Let me give you a hint: the female star S is also a talent show singer.”
“It hasn’t been long since the production started. The production crew, H, is it The Legend of the Crane? Isn’t the important second female lead Jin Jiayu? She had been officially announced. How could she be replaced? Who is the female star, S… I’ve checked and found out that there are no female stars with the initial S among the production crew. Could it be that she’s not on the public list?”
“I hate people like you who keep posting letters. Can’t you just write the post directly? As a middleman, you want to earn a profit?”
“Who the hell is the H production crew? Who is the female celebrity J? Who is the female celebrity S?”
The trending comments were at a loss…
“The number one trending comment is a big deal!!”
