Thinking about how his agent had not supported him in breaking up with Bixi Entertainment immediately, Zhuang Yushu was even more worried. He sat up a little straighter and said seriously, "Do you think Yan Xianjue would have let me become Shen Fangli's teacher if I hadn't completely cut ties with Bixi Entertainment?"
The agent paused, then said indignantly, "He was the one who tried to recruit us in the first place."
Zhuang Yushu was very clear-headed. He didn't let the public accolades of being called the best actor over the years get to his head. "But there are many different types of treatments for recruitment, and we didn't have much choice at the time."
When Qian Quan, the boss of Bixi Entertainment, had already determined that he was the one who made the connection, he only had Yan Xianjue as his choice.
Having worked in Bixi Entertainment for many years, he knows very well what kind of person Qian Quan is.
He is extremely petty and vindictive. Even if he doesn't do anything right now due to the company's situation, Zhuang Yushu will most likely be in trouble with him once the company recovers from this crisis.
By that time, Zhuang Yushu really had no reinforcements.
The agent was still muttering stubbornly: "We can obviously still seek refuge with the Ji family."
After working together for many years, Zhuang Yushu is well aware of his agent's stubbornness.
He curled his lips noncommittally, and said with a hint of self-mockery and a hint of sarcasm: "Ji Xi is the nephew of Chairman Ji's."
"He's still a nephew with a lot of say."
"Otherwise, why do you think Ji Shi had nothing to do with this matter?"
"It only needs to stand by and wait until Random and Tourmaline are both damaged before taking action. The benefits it can gain from that will be far greater than what it has now."
"But look at him now. He's even more interested in it than just entertaining himself."
He didn't say it, but sometimes he felt that Ji Xi was deceiving his uncle's subordinates into working for his boss.
The agent is not unaware of this.
He just felt that they were really unlucky. They had done nothing wrong, but were inexplicably dragged into this.
"I should have kept that charity dinner to myself if I had known about it!"
Zhuang Yushu nodded in agreement. It was not his first time to hold a charity dinner, but it was the first time that it was so lively.
As a result, he now has a psychological trauma about the word "charity dinner".
Now it seems that fans are helping Zhuang Yusu to fight for resources and interests, but in fact they are also putting him on the fire.
Zhuang Yushu sighed softly, "This incident was unavoidable. After all, Yan Xianjue isn't one of those businessmen we've met before who only knows how to weigh the pros and cons."
It’s not that he doesn’t worry, Zhuang Yushu just knows that worrying is useless.
And didn’t he know that sometimes Shen Fangli was trying to get gossip from him? Of course he knew.
He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, but he can't even detect this little trick. He has long been forgotten in this circle.
But he revealed some gossip about the entertainment industry to Shen Fangli because he also got some information about Yan Xianjue from Shen Fangli.
Sometimes what is revealed inadvertently is the most real.
The agent frowned. He could understand that they had all worked their way up in the entertainment industry, but he still felt aggrieved.
"Random Entertainment asked us to impose certain restrictions on our fans. To what extent do these restrictions apply?"
"I told you, it's not all bad this time."
Zhuang Yushu said seriously: "I am very grateful for the fans' love, but I don't want to be controlled by them anymore."
"Let's take this opportunity to put some distance between us."
The agent was silent for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay."
"Then I'll have the PR team tell them that you're very optimistic about this script and that we're currently enjoying our collaboration. Also, tell them that they hope their fans will focus on their work and not let it be exploited by those with ulterior motives."
This person is naturally implying Bixi Entertainment.
"Um."
Zhuang Yushu is confident in his agent's ability.
"But we can't just agree to this so easily," the agent said after some thought. It's his job to fight for the interests of his artists. "I have to go to Jixiang Entertainment and plead my case. At least next time we work together, you must be the lead."
"And this time it was their request. They have to pay for the internet trolls to manipulate public opinion."
Zhuang Yushu looked at his agent who had regained his spirits, curled his lips and did not emphasize that he was also the leading actor this time.
But saving money is good, and he didn't object to the agent's approach.
Lei Xuan didn't go around in circles like them. After reading the trending searches, he directly called Ji Xi.
Ji Xi picked up the phone, pressed the speaker button skillfully, and then put the phone directly next to the desk.
After he finished reviewing the three investment plans, Lei Xuan finally finished speaking.
Ji Xicai picked up the phone and explained, "This is just a temporary solution. After all, we can't let the actor take all the blame."
Lei Xuan: "Then you'll let everyone play the joke about my bad luck!"
Ji Xi was puzzled: "I remember you weren't the kind of person who couldn't take a joke?"
Lei Xuan: "It's just a joke because I don't mind it. I remember Yan Xianjue said something similar."
"But I obviously mind being called unlucky. Maybe the more people say that, the more unlucky I become!"
Lei Xuan always speaks frankly and will express his dissatisfaction directly.
For example, this time, he was very straightforward in expressing his dissatisfaction with the public relations department.
But he did not cause trouble for the public relations department. He was very clear about one thing: Ji Xi had reviewed all the major and minor matters of the company.
In other words, this plan was approved by Ji Xi.
He went straight to the biggest one.
Ji Xi: "But your achievements are facts. Instead of letting them mock you, why not turn this into a meme for netizens to play with?"
Lei Xuan choked: "I would rather they were mocking me, then I could just rant back. I don't know how to respond to this kind of meme."
"If you don't know, then don't respond," Ji Xi said. "Just focus on filming. As long as this sitcom performs well, I guarantee that all the comments about you being unlucky or unlucky will disappear from the internet."
Lei Xuan was smart for once: "Why do I feel like you are just making empty promises to me?"
Ji Xi: "How is that possible? We have known each other for so long, don't you know what kind of person I am?"
Lei Xuan: "I just know it too well."
Ji Xi knew that his anger had subsided by now, and said with a hint of joking: "Then come to the company and I will write a receipt for you."
Ji Xi said this, Lei Xuan was skeptical: "Really?"
"Really." Ji Xi promised.
"I've been saying you've been unlucky for so many years, and you can't even wait a few months?"
Lei Xuan reluctantly said, "Okay."
"Just give the written agreement to my dad."
Ji Xi: “…”
Ji Xi: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Xi once again felt that Lei Xuan was really easy to fool.
