Su Binglan's office.
After a storm had passed, several people gathered here. Li Yan was brewing tea, Ye Chen was waiting to drink, and Li Nianwei was pleading with Zhang Xinlan.
"Chairman Zhang, Zhang Han is no longer here, do you still want me to create hype?" Li Nianwei said bitterly.
"Your movie is about to be released. The company needs to manage, promote, and build momentum for you!" Zhang Xinlan said. "Moreover, rumors are mainly operations. You just need to act a little, and your fame can increase. Why not do it?"
Li Nianwei is also a highly favored artist, likely to ascend to one of the Four Little Flowers!
Right now, she has a major movie about to launch, Zhang Xinlan wants to fan the flames and build up her momentum!
Furthermore, even though Zhang Han is no longer around, the Ye company has backup strength!
"But I don't want to rise to the top through hype!" Li Nianwei mustered her courage to say.
Li Nianwei is a company artist and must follow the company's arrangements. Her saying she doesn't want to now is undoubtedly self-destructive!
However, Zhang Xinlan wasn't angry, instead quite curious.
"The company promoting you is your fortune. Why are you unwilling?"
Countless artists want to be promoted by the company but never get the chance.
Because to make an artist famous, it takes a huge amount of resources!
So, some female artists don't mind selling their bodies to those big directors and bosses just to rise to the top.
But Li Nianwei doesn't have to sacrifice anything and can get the company's support, which takes Su Binglan by surprise that she isn't willing.
Yet, if something strange happens, there must be a reason. While Zhang Xinlan was surprised, she was also curious.
Why is Li Nianwei unwilling?
"I want to achieve what I want through my own effort. Relying on hype is not the right path!" Li Nianwei said with integrity.
"In today's entertainment industry, from superstars to third-rate celebrities, which one didn't rely on hype?" Zhang Xinlan said. "You want to prove yourself; that's a great idea. But do you have the capability?"
"..."
Zhang Xinlan's words were like a sharp needle, pointing out the current state of the entertainment industry, leaving Li Nianwei speechless.
"Young people having ambitions is good, but implementing them is very difficult!" Zhang Xinlan said with deep meaning.
"Chairman Zhang, I really don't want to..." Li Nianwei said awkwardly.
"So-called hype is just acting for show; why must you be troubled?" Zhang Xinlan interrupted her.
"But..."
"No buts!" Zhang Xinlan waved her hand. "The achievements you have today were all given by the company. Would the company harm you?"
"I, I." Li Nianwei stammered, almost at a loss for words.
If she is an actress, Zhang Xinlan is a capitalist, how could she argue with her?
"You two have talked for so long, your mouths must be dry, come over and have some tea!" At this moment, Li Yan had finished brewing tea and invited them to drink.
Zhang Xinlan walked over, picked up a teacup, and acted very casually.
However, Li Nianwei was somewhat restrained. Zhang Xinlan's accumulated prestige was too deep, making her dare not be frivolous.
"Sit here!" Ye Chen patted the sofa next to him.
"Mm." Li Nianwei hesitated for a moment, then sat down beside Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was the real boss, even Zhang Xinlan had to listen to him. With Ye Chen as her backing, Li Nianwei felt a bit more confident.
"Honey." Ye Chen grabbed Zhang Xinlan's small hand. "Must Li Nianwei's hype be carried out?"
"Ye Chen is helping me!" Li Nianwei thought with delight.
"What do you mean?" However, Zhang Xinlan raised her eyebrows, seemingly displeased.
"I don't mean anything!" Ye Chen said. "I've heard Li Nianwei's story. She has strength, luck, and works hard enough. Is there really a need to rely on hype?"
"The company is not a charity. Li Nianwei is very popular, but she was promoted by the company!" Zhang Xinlan rolled her eyes. "Now she has a movie being released, and if managed well, it can increase the box office a lot!"
"What is box office? Box office is money! We run a company for money!"
Zhang Xinlan has made the Ye company bigger and bigger, undoubtedly a successful businesswoman!
However, profit-driven is the essence of business! Li Nianwei is a great treasure, potentially mining huge wealth. Zhang Xinlan has no reason not to dig into her!
"Mm, what you said makes sense!" Ye Chen thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Do you have feelings for her?" Zhang Xinlan asked with a peculiar expression.
"No!" Ye Chen said. "But you know my quirk: if I touch something, I won't allow others to touch it, or else I'll get very upset!"
"You have no shame!" Zhang Xinlan scorned.
"Would I have won such a beautiful wife as you if I had shame?" Ye Chen said with a mischievous smile.
"You guys be mindful, okay? There's still someone watching here!" Li Yan said with an envious tone.
"There's no outsider here!"
