“I will only use the best resources I have. Your track overlaps too much with Xiao He's. If you two are both with me, it will inevitably lead to an uneven distribution of resources.”
Bringing Shu Han into Ling Hui Studio with a large sum of money is indeed a good thing, since having more of your own people is always better than having more competitors. However, this is unfair to both Shu Han and Xiao He.
Liu Rulan didn't have the energy to balance the relationship between the two sides.
"So, you chose Xiao He..."
Shu Han was somewhat disappointed.
Liu Rulan spread her hands helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. Even if you had come back a year earlier, I would most likely have chosen Xiao He. After all, the kid is still young, has great potential, and is very talented. I would definitely choose Xiao He."
Shu Han, who is almost forty years old: ...
It felt as if a sword had pierced his chest.
"Okay, actually I probably guessed it too."
Shu Han sighed helplessly.
The moment he saw Xiao He, he sensed danger—it was just a feeling he'd had after years as an actor. Shu Han felt that Xiao He would definitely become a very formidable opponent in the future.
Moreover, Shu Han hadn't heard Liu Rulan praise anyone with the phrase "highly talented" for a long time.
Sister Liu's judgment has never been bad.
Even when he was still a stunt double, Liu Rulan frankly told him that his acting skills might still need improvement, but hard work can make up for shortcomings, and his excellent martial arts skills could also be an advantage for him, giving him a greater edge over others.
And indeed, he made a name for himself in the Chinese entertainment industry with his skills, and under Liu Rulan's guidance, he landed a big Hollywood role, caught the eye of a top director, and successfully connected with an entertainment company there, thus going international.
Therefore, Shu Han believed Liu Rulan's words.
He was just a little unwilling to accept it...
Shu Han said with a hint of resentment, "Only you could have made this choice."
One is a newcomer who has only been in the industry for a year and has not yet achieved any success or fame; the other is a martial arts superstar who has returned home in glory and has many accolades.
Isn't it obvious who to choose?
Liu Rulan chuckled: "Alright, do you think I don't know you? You have plenty of people to choose from when you come back. You could easily start your own studio. The only reason you want me to continue being your manager is because you're worried that if I manage Xiao He alone, he might betray me and we'll have to start all over again."
Shu Han would never lack an agent. Given his current situation, hiring Liu Rulan would only be icing on the cake.
Therefore, Shu Han's invitation to Liu Rulan was most likely intended to help her out.
After all, having left Jiaxing Entertainment, Liu Rulan had to rely entirely on herself.
Shu Han looked at his old partner with mixed feelings, but in the end he didn't say anything more. He followed Liu Rulan's words and said, "Yes, since Sister Liu believes so much in Xiao He's character and future achievements, then I won't do anything like poaching someone else's talent. But if Sister Liu needs any help, please be sure to tell me."
"That's natural."
Liu Rulan's eyebrows curved into crescents, and her tone became much gentler.
"Oh right, I almost forgot to mention—"
"Welcome back, Shu Han."
