259: The best defense is offense!
"What a mess!"
Tangtang read Jiang Zhiyan's text message and told it to Xu Yao as a joke: "I asked you to defend the title, but what is the title? Does Huahu already have an internet celebrity ready to film this kind of skit?"
Jiang Zhiyan's reminder was very vague, and Xu Yao didn't know what Jiang Zhiyan meant specifically, but she would follow her own original pace.
When others see that this kind of earthy short drama can attract traffic, they will definitely imitate it. Fortunately, Xu Yao is a pioneer and can reap the benefits.
"Mr. Jiang is so kind. Please thank him for me."
"All right……"
Why.
When people have a soft spot, they are not as straightforward as before. Tangtang is not afraid that Jiang Zhiyan will ban her, but she is worried that offending Jiang Zhiyan will have a bad influence on Xu Yao. After all, Xu Yao has just changed jobs and has not yet established a firm foothold in Orca... Forget it, just be perfunctory to that bastard named Jiang.
Tangtang sent a "thank you" message to Jiang Zhiyan, and the other party replied almost immediately.
Tangtang wanted to see what Jiang Zhiyan was going to say next, but the news was withdrawn.
Tangtang sneered: Still trying this?
Tangtang cursed inwardly, "You're crazy," and didn't ask what Jiang Zhiyan had withdrawn.
Li Lanyi, who was active in the circle, had already heard the rumor that Gu Jun was the boss of Huahu. Tangtang was much less sensitive to the news of her seclusion to take care of her pregnancy than Li Lanyi. Xu Yao thought that even Li Lanyi knew about it, so she simply took the initiative to tell Tangtang.
Tangtang was speechless for a long time after listening to this. After a while, she reached out and hugged Xu Yao.
Tangtang's belly has grown bigger, and she has to lean forward to hug her. Xu Yao is particularly afraid that she will sprain her waist.
"I'm fine, it's all over!"
Tangtang said "hmm" but was thinking to herself, how could she possibly get through this?
Tangtang and Jiang Zhiyan weren't destined to be together; it was destined from the beginning. Tangtang didn't expect too much, so she didn't get disappointed. But when Xu Yao married Gu Jun, she thought he was just a senior engineer. Who knew that bastard Gu Jun would actually lie about his identity?! Deception is deception, and the excuse of "good intentions" can't change the nature of the matter. No wonder Xu Yao cut the Gordian knot and filed for divorce.
Tangtang knew Xu Yao too well. Unlike others who felt sorry for Xu Yao after knowing Gu Jun’s identity, she just felt that it was good for Xu Yao to get divorced!
"Look at the bright side. At least people like Old Madam Jiang won't bother you anymore. You can spend your own money, don't get involved with that circle, and don't have to care about what those people say!"
Tangtang found an angle to persuade Xu Yao.
Xu Yao just laughed after hearing this: "You're right, I'm divorced, but I'm freer!"
Tangtang didn't have a deep understanding of those rich people, and she didn't see how Old Lady Jiang put Xu Yao on a pedestal at the birthday party. Old Lady Jiang and Zheng Weiler didn't want Xu Yao and Gu Jun to get back together, while Shen Zhongjun and others wanted Xu Yao and Gu Jun to get back together. These people had different positions but similar ideas, and they all felt that Xu Yao could still influence Gu Jun.
If Xu Yao wants to be completely free, unless Gu Jun remarries another woman, all attention on Xu Yao will be diverted!
Of course, there is no need to explain these undercurrents in detail to Tangtang, as they will affect Tangtang's mood for pregnancy.
Xu Yao asked Tangtang if she had time to accompany her to meet Tiancheng, the screenwriter of the short play.
Tangtang was puzzled, "Do you need me to see her?"
Xu Yao nodded confidently, "Of course I do. Didn't President Jiang say that we must remember to defend the ring after winning the first battle? I'm going to defend it now."
Tangtang is a loyal person. Xu Yao said that she wanted to meet Tiancheng together, so they met together.
Unexpectedly, Tiancheng was very shy when meeting Xu Yao, but very excited when meeting Tangtang.
Sweet Orange loves sugar!
Tangtang was embarrassed: "Why?"
Tiancheng's eyes lit up. "I started out writing online novels, and you're the most domineering heroine we've ever seen in our lives. We all admire you because in the novel, you and Mr. Jiang flirted for a while and it should have ended, but in reality, you've been steadfast in rejecting Mr. Jiang, which is really not easy. After all, Mr. Jiang is young, rich, and handsome. These advantages are enough to cover up his other shortcomings. It's hard for a woman to be so determined to reject him... I'm not trying to morally blackmail you or prevent you from being with Mr. Jiang in the future. People's feelings are always changing, and no one can predict what will happen in the future. But just looking at the present, you're really independent and strong. You can withstand the pressure of public opinion and stick to your own ideas. You haven't compromised because of Mr. Jiang's status, nor have you forced yourself to compromise for the sake of the baby. You are a true heroine!"
Tiancheng gave Tangtang high praise.
Tangtang couldn't help but glance at Xu Yao.
What's the point of rejecting Jiang Zhiyan? Jiang Zhiyan proposed to her, but the Jiang family didn't accept her.
The truly powerful person was Xu Yao, who was already married to Gu Jun. When she knew that Gu Jun was the boss of Huahu, she divorced him without hesitation.
Xu Yao looks delicate, but at her core she is more than just an independent heroine. Most male protagonists are not as good as Xu Yao!
"Thank you for your love. I'm actually not as good as you say. Thank you for writing the script for Yaoyao. You are the one who is truly talented. You are completely different from internet celebrities like me who rely on their looks to make a living."
"You're really good, don't doubt yourself. I've even been to your livestream when you were livestreaming and selling products..."
Xu Yao clapped her hands. "Seeing you two appreciate each other so much, I feel relieved. I'm sure our future partnership will be very pleasant."
What cooperation?
Tangtang and Tiancheng turned to look at Xu Yao, who kept it a secret: "Wait a little longer, there are more people coming. I'll tell you after everyone is here, so I don't have to tell you again."
As soon as Xu Yao finished speaking, the person she was waiting for arrived.
Li Lanyi's face was flushed and there were beads of sweat on her forehead.
"What's the rush? I was taking my makeup off and you asked me to come over! Hey, are you all here?"
Xu Yao pulled out a chair for Li Lanyi and poured some water for her. "Moisten your throat first, then rest and listen to me."
When Li Lanyi regained her breath, Xu Yao looked at Tiancheng and said, "Teacher Tiancheng, do you want to cooperate further? If so, the three people in front of you are all partners."
Sweet Orange's eyes widened: "You mean——"
"What I mean is, you can continue to write the scripts for the short plays I commissioned earlier. The short plays I upload to my account are free, and I will definitely star in them myself. But outside of my account, we can have other, more in-depth collaborations. Look, the three of us have both capital and platform knowledge. Teacher Tiancheng has countless creative ideas and knows other screenwriters. Why don't we pool our resources and set up a company specializing in short play production? The short plays we produce won't be used to attract traffic. Instead, we can offer pay-per-view episodes or full-series packages like Teacher Tiancheng used to do with her online novels. Is that feasible?"
Before Tangtang and Li Lanyi could come to their senses, Tiancheng was already drooling.
What's not feasible.
When Xu Yao said that the short drama was free and only for attracting traffic, Tiancheng was very disappointed.
Tiancheng wanted to make a paid short drama, but unexpectedly Xu Yao brought it up first!
