Chapter 282: It’s worth it
In a hotel room in Central District, Hong Kong Island.
The door was pushed open and a middle-aged woman walked in.
Although her face was full of fatigue, it could not conceal her remaining charming temperament.
"Mommy, what's wrong?" the young woman in the room asked anxiously.
The mother and daughter have been in Hong Kong Island for some time.
I thought that with her fame in the mainland, it would be easy for her to get another pair of big and thick legs.
Unexpectedly, I ran into obstacles everywhere.
"Alas, Media Asia and China Star have not made any statement yet. CC, the situation is not optimistic."
The middle-aged woman's tone was filled with sadness and anger.
Now the mother and daughter are just like the old saying goes: a plucked phoenix is no better than a chicken.
After hearing this, the young woman's face became dejected.
-
Thinking back to the time when she became famous at a young age, how glorious and proud she was?
She is the "Sister XX" in the hearts of countless people, she is the "white moonlight" of countless men, and she has a "flawless" personality.
Although there have been many ups and downs along the way over the years, fortunately, the man "behind" her can handle everything for her.
In terms of education, although her education level is low, even her high school resume is blank. How can a person who doesn't even have a high school education be called perfect?
Fortunately, that man got the connection with Hou Pijiner, the vice president of Beijing Film Academy, so she was not affected by her diploma and successfully entered Beijing Film Academy at the age of 15.
In terms of fame, she immediately became the spokesperson for the real estate project invested by the man after returning to China. She took a photo for a huge advertising banner and hung it in the most conspicuous position of the building.
Soon, his fame spread and he became famous before his debut.
She also took advantage of this opportunity to get the second female role in the Republican drama that was popular all over the country.
Although he was bullied by Senior Chen and Dong Lianhua in the crew because of his poor acting skills, fortunately, the man helped him again.
Then, all the difficulties and exclusion disappeared. Wherever she went, she was greeted with smiling faces. She suddenly became a "little fairy" that everyone loved.
For her sake, the man personally went to his hometown in Jiangcheng, took care of all the people who had close relationships with her in her childhood, and hid her past.
As a result, the most unfavorable experience before she became famous was deleted, and no matter how hard the reporters dug, they could not find any clues.
From then on, the perfect road to superstardom that man had paved for her had been fully realized.
She has also completely established her perfect personality in the circle. Not only does she have countless resources and roles, she is also one of the few artists in the entertainment industry with zero negative news, and she is unparalleled in the limelight.
-
But why has it come to this point now?
It was also because of that man, the man she called "godfather" in public and "Brother Fei" behind his back.
If he hadn't gone in and left her with no one "behind her", how could those people dare to slander her so wantonly?
If he hadn't been in jail, why would I have to "fly away when disaster strikes" and come to Hong Kong, where people look down on me and discriminate against me?
Although she was very resentful towards the man in her heart, at this moment, the young woman still missed him a little.
Not only can I find the long-lost sense of security from him, but I also have a peculiar emotional sustenance and dependence on him.
He can satisfy everything she wants, money, house, fame, resources...
And what she needs to pay is not much...
That is something that many women can do easily.
It's just that those women don't have her luck.
-
Looking at her daughter who had remained silent for a long time, the middle-aged woman's eyes flashed and a hint of hesitation appeared on her face.
But soon, this hesitation disappeared, and was replaced by firmness and determination.
"CC." The middle-aged woman called softly.
"Um, Mommy?" the young woman came back to her senses.
"In fact, not all companies rejected us." The middle-aged woman paused and continued, "Boss Jiang from Anle is very optimistic about you and admires you very much."
"Really?" The young woman's eyes lit up again.
"Yes, but Boss Jiang said that he will attend a drinking party in the next two days and would like to invite you to go with him. What do you think..."
The young woman was stunned at first, and then her face turned ugly.
It was called a drinking party, but she knew exactly what was going on...
That Boss Jiang is already in his fifties or almost sixty this year, right?
She is nearly ten years older than her "Brother Fei"!
The young woman was struggling.
On the one hand, it is a chance to make a comeback...
Lest it be something she needs to pay...
Where to go?
-
A high-end residential area in Beijing.
In the room, Yang Mi and her agent Zeng Jia sat opposite each other.
However, the atmosphere between the two of them was not very good at this time.
His face showed that he was still angry.
It seemed that some dispute had broken out before.
After a long time, Yang Mi finally spoke to break the silence.
"How did they treat me? What do they think of me? Huh?"
"I endured it, played a supporting role, and finished the performance of Dream of the Red Chamber."
"I have done my best for them. I don't owe them anything!"
"I thought you and I were always on the same page, but you still want me to keep enduring!"
As she spoke, Yang Mi slammed the table hard, not caring at all that her hands turned red.
"Anyway, I've made up my mind. I don't want to stay in this crappy company for even one more day."
"Money is a bastard. If you lose it, go earn it again! Isn't it just liquidated damages? I'll sell everything I have and pay them back!"
"What can they do to me? Use whatever means you have! I have never known how to write the word 'fear' since I was a child!"
"Since I was able to go from being an alley girl to where I am today, I am not afraid to start all over again!"
At this moment, Yang Mi was full of recklessness.
"Now, I give you two choices. Either you come with me, or you stay and continue playing with those two old women!"
"You make up your own mind."
After saying that, Yang Mi crossed her arms and looked at Zeng Jia with burning eyes, waiting for her reply.
A few minutes later, Zeng Jia also spoke.
"Please let me think about it again."
Hearing this, Yang Mi laughed.
"Ok, I will wait for you."
"Well, I'll go back first. I have other things to do." Zeng Jia's face showed her usual faint smile.
Yang Mi sent Zeng Jia out the door.
-
The moment the door closed, the smiles on the two women's faces disappeared.
Two people were standing inside and outside the door, not moving.
It seemed that they both felt each other's intentions and said goodbye silently.
Zeng Jia, who was outside the door, narrowed her eyes slightly.
Originally, her plan was to wait for more than a year until Yang Mi's contract expired before making any plans.
At that time, Yang Mi's fame will become greater and her commercial value will become higher.
By then, she will have Yang Mi as her trump card, and she can go anywhere in the world...
However, she didn't expect that Yang Mi's attitude today was so firm, as if she was giving her an ultimatum.
I don't want to wait even more than a year.
This undoubtedly disrupted her previous plans.
Zeng Jia, who is ambitious and wants to make a big career in the industry, has long been fed up with the feeling of having no say and no control.
So, where can she fulfill her wish?
Zeng Jia couldn't help but think of the time in the middle of the year when she went on a business trip to Hong Kong Island and the CEO of Media Asia Entertainment had shown goodwill to her.
Although Meiya is not ranked high in the Hong Kong circle, it is inferior in both strength and scale.
But for her, it was just right.
I would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.
Only a company like Meiya can entrust her with important tasks and give her important positions.
Although the Hong Kong entertainment industry is not doing well nowadays, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
Moreover, in Zeng Jia's view, Hong Kong Island is, after all, an international financial capital.
Advanced, free, and full of opportunities and chances.
The Hong Kong industry has both money and people, and the difficulties are only temporary. Revival, or the return of former glory, is a matter of time.
Soon, Zeng Jia had decided where to go in the future.
She is not an artist, so it is easy for her to quit her job and find another one.
-
However, now there is a very cruel fact before her.
Zeng Jia knew that a rift had already occurred between her and Yang Mi, the kind that could not be repaired.
From now on, she will lose Yang Mi, her cash cow.
As an agent, if she didn't have any famous artists under her management, it would be like a vine without a trunk. For her, that would be more painful than death.
Without Yang Mi, she would not be taken seriously even if she went to Meiya.
Therefore, it becomes urgent to find a substitute for Yangmi, or even a substitute that is better than Yangmi itself.
Many female celebrities appeared in Zeng Jia's mind.
However, after a while, she realized that all the people she could think of, whether they were already famous or had potential, already had someone taken.
What's even more terrifying is that these people are either in Wang Jinghua's 18 Culture, Zong Shuai's Star Culture, or Cai Yinong's Tangren...
These companies all belong to the "Galaxy" and have the same big boss behind the scenes!
For a moment, Zeng Jiadu had an impulse to join Lin Yicheng, the industry leader.
Leaning against the big tree is good for the coolness.
But she quickly rejected the idea.
Wang Jinghua, Zong Shuai, Cai Yinong, and Yang Tianzhen...
These people either have more experience than her or are more famous than her.
If she surrendered to Lin Yicheng, she would only be able to work under these people.
This was something she absolutely could not tolerate.
So, who else is a suitable replacement?
-
Zeng Jia was thinking hard until she got in the car.
The car was driving on a busy street with tall buildings standing on both sides of the street.
When passing by a building, Zeng Jia glanced at it inadvertently.
"Squeak~"
The car braked suddenly.
Zeng Jia stared at the building, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She remembered that just a few years ago, there was a huge advertisement here, and the woman in the advertisement was not in a very good situation now.
This person, whether in terms of fame or value, is far beyond what Yang Mi can compare to.
Back then, Zeng Jia had also hoped that he could sign this person to himself.
But she knew that was unrealistic.
Not to mention her, even Huayi and Tangren look down on her.
But now, the opportunity has come.
It was useless to add icing on the cake at that time, but it can be of timely assistance now.
But how can we provide timely help?
"She...Mia..." Zeng Jia kept repeating the two names while brainstorming.
Suddenly, Zeng Jia remembered that she had read such a story in Reader. It was a story about the son-in-law of Bill Gates, the world's richest man.
Although Zeng Jia didn't quite believe this story, she believed the moral behind it.
Resources need to be integrated with each other.
Some things can be achieved by taking nothing.
What if she followed suit?
Perhaps, there is a possibility of success!
Thinking of this, Zeng Jia immediately became excited, took out his cell phone and started making a call.
-
Yang Mi's home.
After Zeng Jia left, Yang Mi poured herself a glass of red wine.
"It's been so long, what else is there to consider?"
"Do you really think I'm just a silly girl from the alley?"
"Since you and I are no longer on the same page, then from now on, we are no longer on the same page."
"I just don't believe it. If I leave you, the butcher, I will have to eat hairy pigs!"
Yang Mi shook the red wine glass and muttered to herself.
But soon, Yang Mi's face became distressed again.
"But where should we go next?"
"Hua Yi? No, those two brothers are too disgusting. If I go there, wouldn't it be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?"
"Bona? No, that fat guy is not a good guy either. He is full of fat and looks greasy."
"Light? No, no, that Smiling Tiger is too sinister. What if he sells me out one day without even noticing? I will still have to count money for him like an idiot."
Yang Mi thought about the film and television companies in the circle, and subconsciously flipped through several entertainment magazines and newspapers on the table.
-
Suddenly, a copy of Beijing Youth Daily caught her attention.
[According to our newspaper, ... directed by the famous director Lin Yicheng, starring Huabiao Film Queen Fan Bingbing and potential newcomer Jing Tian, the ancient costume fantasy fairy tale drama "Cang Lan Jue" is currently being filmed at Hengdian Film and Television Base...]
"Yes, how could I forget about this senior?" Yang Mi couldn't help but pat her forehead.
"This senior likes to use students from Beijing Film Academy the most." Yang Mi was immediately delighted.
She usually pays a lot of attention to this senior.
Compared to when we first met, the senior is now incomparably better in terms of wealth, fame, and status.
The director with the highest box office in the country, who runs a large-scale film and television company, is also a "billionaire"!
Not to mention, the senior himself is handsome and talented.
Which woman, seeing such a rich bachelor, wouldn't throw herself at him desperately?
She also wants to pounce!
What happened to the pounce?
It's not shameful!
After so many years in the circle, she is no longer a naive little girl.
I've seen too much.
Unspoken rules and the like have long been commonplace.
How can there be any reward without paying?
Besides, didn't that girl pounce on a man just as horny as before? And the man she pounced on was an old man!
I must be better than her!
Go for someone younger, richer, and more powerful!
I’m so mad at that slutty woman who says one thing in front of others and another behind their backs!
A look of determination and heroism emerged on Yang Mi's face.
-
In a flash, all these disappeared and turned into regret, loss, and a little anger.
Yang Mi recalled an old story.
When Lin Yicheng's film "Man Jiang Hong" premiered at the Beijing Film Academy Auditorium, she was the host of the premiere.
At that time, she had used some tricks to seduce Lin Yicheng.
However, Lin Yicheng did not respond at all.
Even the flirting eyes are thrown to a blind man!
Originally, Yang Mi thought that this senior was a rare serious person in the circle.
But later, the more she listened and the more she understood, she realized that it was not that the senior was so serious, but that he simply didn't like her at that time.
Thinking of this, Yang Mi curled her lips slightly.
Still a little angry.
She came to the bathroom, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at herself.
A face that was teased and even mocked as "tender meat five squares".
There are also two pairs of small and exquisite "fried eggs" on the chest, which are not protruding.
Suddenly, Yang Mi felt even more angry.
I'm so angry!
"What happened to 'tender beef and five squares'? Isn't it tasty? What happened to 'poached eggs'? Isn't it tender?"
"Have I eaten your rice? Why are you scolding me?"
Yang Mi stomped her feet in front of the mirror and got angry, but she didn't know who she was scolding.
"If you only know how to judge people by appearance, you have no idea what inner beauty is!"
"Humph, I knew you like the kind that looks fairy-like and cold!"
"You know nothing!"
"Bullshit fairy! Bullshit cold! Who knows how slutty she will be when she serves her godfather!"
"A bunch of loser lickers! They are all blind!"
After Yang Mi had a tantrum, she felt a little tired and sat down on the ground.
-
When he lowered his head, he saw the pair of 'fried eggs' on his chest again.
"You guys are such a loser. How much papaya have you eaten? Where did it all go?"
Yang Mi was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped the "fried egg" on the left.
"Beat you to death, you useless thing!"
"Ouch, it hurts!"
Perhaps it was because the force of the slap just now was too great, Yang Mi's eyes were filled with tears due to the pain.
"Yang Mi, are you okay?"
"Are you stupid?"
Yang Mi started to blame herself again.
"Humph, if I hadn't been so busy in the past two years, I wouldn't have had time to do a few minor surgeries."
"No, since papaya is useless, don't blame me for using some high-tech!"
"And that hypocritical bastard Lin Yicheng, when the time comes, I will definitely make you drop dead with pleasure! I will charm you to death!"
Thinking of Lin Yicheng, Yang Mi's eyes flickered again.
She pulled her cell phone out of her pocket and made a call.
After a few words, he hung up.
She learned a piece of news that Lin Yicheng had returned to Beijing two days ago and had not left yet.
"Fan Bingbing is still in Hengdian."
"What a God-given opportunity!"
"Hmph, today is the day to do it!"
Muttering to herself, Yang Mi stood up.
He rushed into the bedroom.
He opened the closet and took out all the clothes inside.
"No, this one is too plain and tasteless."
"This one won't do either. It's too little. If you go out wearing this, you'll freeze to death!"
"This? Um, no, it's too pure."
Yang Mi couldn't help but think of Fan Bingbing's blog, which she often browsed.
Inside are Fan Bingbing's experiences and insights on dressing and makeup knowledge.
"Since that bastard likes Fan Bingbing's style, I will dress like her and be more seductive like her."
"Hey, let you brag and share blindly, wait until I steal your home, and you'll cry!"
"It's purple and hollowed out. Okay, it's yours." Yang Mi picked up a small bra and placed it next to her.
"What should I match with purple? Forget it, just wear all purple." As she said that, she picked out one that was also purple and hollowed out from a pile of cute little things.
"By the way, we also need this." Yang Mi picked up a pair of light black stockings.
The stockings are like delicate silk, light and close-fitting.
Yang Mi put it on immediately and then looked in the mirror.
The lines of her legs are perfectly outlined by this pair of stockings.
Let her whole body exude charming feminine charm.
"No, something is missing." Yang Mi frowned again.
He looked back and forth over his body.
Finally, her gaze fixed on her feet.
"Oh, right! And feet! Don't all those men like jade feet?"
As she spoke, Yang Mi carefully took off her stockings.
Then he took out a box from the dressing table.
It was filled with bottles and jars of nail polish in various colors.
"You can't use purple anymore. It will make people tired of it."
"Well, pink is good, pure and sexy."
Then, Yang Mi put pink petals on the heads of her ten silkworms.
Those little toes instantly became tender and cute.
-
She put on her bra, camisole, and stockings one by one.
I looked at myself in the mirror again and admired myself.
With the help of Bra, the two 'fried eggs' successfully squeezed out a shallow groove.
The little cutie exudes a charming aura.
The translucent stockings are looming and tempting, who can resist their inner charm?
And those gracefully arched, slender and white little feet are like the newly born spring water, and the tender skin is white and rosy, as if it is the shy blooming peach blossoms.
For a moment, Yang Mi herself was a little dazed.
"If there are flowers, you must break them off. Don't wait until there are no flowers."
"Would you like this tender flower of mine, which has never bloomed to anyone?"
"Definitely."
In Yang Mi's mind, she had already imagined the scenes that would happen today and in the future.
She was shy and ready to bloom, wanting to welcome it but also to resist.
Senior Lin was stunned and impatient.
Then, everything will fall into place.
She successfully conquered and captured Senior Dog's heart.
From then on, she was the behind-the-scenes boss lady of Xinghe Film and Television.
Roles, resources, honor, fame, money...
Everything you need, at your fingertips!
Thinking of the happy things, Yang Mi couldn't help but giggle.
She in the mirror was also smiling.
Like a fox spirit that has just been reincarnated.
Although still young, she is already naturally charming...
