It was Producer Niu.
Luo Lin didn’t take it and handed the phone to Brother Liang.
“Hello, Producer Niu. It’s Luo Lin’s manager. He’s busy with work. If you have anything to say, you can tell me first. I’ll pass it on.”
“Didn’t we say that the meet-and-greet would be held a few more times? Can Luo Lin spare some time for us?”
“I’m sorry, Producer Niu. We really can’t spare any time on our end. Luo Lin really can’t participate in the meet-and-greets. However, he also said that if you want to continue with the plan, he’ll definitely record a video and send it to you on time. He’ll definitely support you.”
In the end, Luo Lin would not go to the event location.
After getting his makeup removed, Luo Lin went to the bathroom. Brother Liang was still explaining to Producer Niu. His tone was gentle and humble, but he refused to relent. “We really don’t have time. I’m really sorry.”
Producer Niu’s mouth was dry from all the talking, and she was about to explode. Anyway, Brother Liang insisted on one principle. Even though Luo Lin didn’t have time to attend, he could record the video.
“Brother Liang, Luo Lin is really famous now. Everyone in this circle meets frequently…”
“That’s right, Producer Niu. That’s why Luo Lin said that he would definitely record a video.”
Producer Niu was furious and hung up.
Brother Liang couldn’t help but say, “Why didn’t you have such an attitude when you were busy trampling on us? Do you really think we’re easy to bully? Can’t you take a look in the mirror? If you hadn’t been so ruthless, would Luo Lin have rejected you?”
After taking a shower, Luo Lin took his phone back and said, “Okay, that’s it. In the future, whenever he calls, say that I’m not free.”
“Okay!” Brother Liang was relieved, but after saying that, he couldn’t help but worry. “Luo Lin, these people still have some power. If we offend all of them now…”
“I have a bottom line,” Luo Lin said.
Brother Liang was no longer worried. As long as the person in question could stand firm, what was there to be afraid of?
Producer Niu couldn’t invite Luo Lin, but he still planned to do two more meet-and-greets for Tianhe Home.
She discussed it with Zhang Zhewen.
patted his chest and promised.
“Okay, I’ll plan again and see what to do.”
“Are you sure Luo Lin isn’t coming?” Zhang Zhewen asked.
“That’s right. He’s famous now. He’s so amazing. He didn’t even pick up my call and got Brother Liang to brush me off. Hehe, doesn’t he know that things are changing?”
“He’s always been like this. Look, he’s turned against you. I’ve long seen through him. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to support you during the meet- and-greets.”
“Alright.’
Zhang Zhewen asked Xiao Yu to free up his schedule. “These two meet-and-greets are an excellent opportunity. We must seize them and fight to gain more fans.”
“I know. I’ll definitely arrange it for you according to high standards. Even without Luo Lin, so what? I don’t believe the event won’t go smoothly!”
Zhang Zhewen waited for the farewell meet-and-greets. Many of his fans would attend. Since Luo Lin wasn’t participating, everyone present would naturally be his fans.
However, Producer Niu did not send any news for a long time.
Zhang Zhewen had no choice but to call her to ask about the situation.
“Sigh, Zhewen we might not be able to do it.” Producer Niu had a headache.
“Why not?” Zhang Zhewen was still waiting for his chance to shine alone.
“There are two main supporting actors who also have work to do and can’t participate. Let’s not talk about that. We’ve done a market survey. Those who are willing to come to the event location aren’t enough.”
“You can’t even gather 50,000 people?”
Zhang Zhewen was surprised.
The last farewell meet-and-greet was held in a venue that could fit 50,000 people. At that time, the tickets were all snatched up in more than ten seconds.
There were many people who did not manage to buy tickets. At that time, the scalped tickets were sold for 7,000 to 8,000 for one, which was five to six times higher than the original price.
Producer Niu looked at the investigation report in her hand. “Yes, the number of people who are interested in coming is…”
She didn’t say the number, but it was too different from what she had expected.
It was expensive to hold a meet-and-greet. They had to rent a venue and arrange security. There were various other expenses too.
They needed enough people to buy tickets to cover the cost. They also needed many sponsors to foot the bill in order to make money.
However, the market changed after it was made clear that Luo Lin would not be participating. Everyone’s desire to buy tickets decreased by 70%.
The sponsors also wanted to leave.
Producer Niu did not want to work hard for nothing.
Zhang Zhewen said, “Sister Niu, can we host a smaller one?”
He really yearned for a stage to show off.
Producer Niu shook her head. “You don’t understand. There aren’t enough sponsors now. Holding a meet-and-greet is a big cost. Without guaranteed income, it’s too risky. This isn’t the way to do projects.” Zhang Zhewen did not expect such an outcome.
Producer Niu did not expect this either.
They all thought that with the enthusiasm of the audience, even without Luo Lin, the fans would be willing to pay for the meet-and-greet.
Even if there were fewer people, it would not be too bad.
Even if Luo Lin was not around, the sponsors would not ignore Zhang Zhewen.
However… reality was such a slap in the face.
After Producer Niu knew what the problem was, she humbly called Luo Lin and begged him.
But Luo Lin still didn’t take up the offer.
Brother Liang’s tone was still humble. “I’m really sorry, Producer Niu. Luo Lin is too busy to ask for leave. I’m sorry.”
After Producer Niu hung up the phone, she knew why Luo Lin was so heartless. Before this, as long as they didn’t go overboard, Luo Lin wouldn’t fall out with them on the surface.
The last straw was the Weibo post that she reposted.
It was a public denial of Luo Lin’s acting skills, and it was his last tolerance for her.
Producer Niu knew that the situation was irreversible.
Director Gao didn’t know about this yet. He was still thinking of using Luo Lin to help him and Zhang Zhewen attract investors.
He didn’t think that it was a big deal for him to repost the Weibo post back then. He really thought that Zhang Zhewen was the one who taught Luo Lin how to act. Without Zhang Zhewen, how could Luo Lin have portrayed Baili Tang so well?
Without Baili Tang, how could Luo Lin be where he was today?
He also made a call, wanting to talk to Luo Lin about attracting investors.
It was Brother Liang who answered the phone.
“Director Gao, Luo Lin is filming. Yes, yes, yes. He’s been filming for many nights in a row. He’s been working hard all throughout the day..”
