Chapter 1564: Chapter 1565: Slapped Back, Satisfying
If they can seize this opportunity in such a big scene, make an appearance and perform well, they might just carve out a name for themselves in the entertainment industry from now on.
Needless to say, the two new actors were excited, and their agents were equally thrilled.
There’s no need to mention Jian Yao’s agent. She’s an artist under Lemon Entertainment, which was once considered a top company in the industry and has produced many hit dramas. Her people have seen plenty of big scenes; being excited is one thing, but they always stick with their artists, doing what needs to be done.
Lu Hanguang’s agent was different.
Completely changing her previous attitude, she followed Zhu Zhu closely, cupping her face with both hands, fawning, and flattering, “I never imagined Mr. Rong had such a broad network. It’s such a stroke of luck for Zhou Chen to star in this drama. Mr. Rong is truly Zhou Chen’s benefactor. When he makes it in the industry, I’ll definitely have him remember Mr. Rong’s kindness and help…”
Wherever Zhu Zhu went, she followed, continually mouthing off about Rong Yan, barely hiding the greedy and fawning expression on her face. Anyone with eyes could see she was boasting because she saw Rong Yan’s extensive connections in the industry and wanted Rong Yan to unconditionally help Zhou Chen. There are many in the industry who want something for nothing, but few display their greed as shamelessly as she does!
After urging the makeup artist, Zhu Zhu turned back to face her fawning demeanor, crossed her arms, and gave her a cold laugh in return, “Agent Liu wasn’t just complaining to me earlier about how today’s press conference was a waste of your artist’s time, saying you might as well let your artist take on a few more gigs. You even said our press conference delayed an important magazine shoot for you. Why don’t you go for the magazine shoot, and I’ll think of a way to tell the media that our male lead isn’t available to attend?”
Back when she was Rong Yan’s assistant, she was always straightforward. Having been upset by Zhou Chen’s agent earlier, she couldn’t swallow her anger when she saw the agent changing her attitude to please her. She responded with biting sarcasm, giving the middle-aged woman a red face from embarrassment. Holding back her anger, she forced a smile and replied dryly, “… How can a magazine shoot be more important than a press conference? This is Zhou Chen’s first lead role, and we all hope this drama will be a hit; it’s good for everyone. I was just being hasty, seeing that the media hadn’t arrived yet. Zhu Zhu, please don’t take it to heart. I apologize to you.”
The other party lowered her face in apology, and she wasn’t foolish enough to hold onto the mistake. She seized the moment to stop her genuine apology, softening her tone, “I was just quick to speak and didn’t say things pleasantly. Andy, don’t take it to heart either; I meant no harm. Like you said, we’re all in it for the success of the drama. If the drama is successful, it benefits your artist and our company. If the drama flops, we’ll all be upset. So we need to unite and work towards a common goal, don’t you think?”
The implication of her words was clear, and the other party wasn’t foolish, her cheeks slightly red, she nodded and repeatedly agreed.
“Yes, yes, yes, what you say makes sense. I’ve been in the industry for so long, and now I’m still stumbling around. It looks like I need to learn more from you outstanding young people.”
“Andy, you’re too flattering. You’re a veteran in the industry, with experience and skills far beyond ours, it should be us learning from you.”
With that back and forth, the atmosphere between the two softened, and the agent didn’t insist on sticking to her, cooperating with her work.
