Agent Zhang heard the beeping sound of the phone being hung up, frowned, and dialed again.
[Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off. Please try again later. Thank you.] His brows furrowed even deeper, and he dialed again in disbelief, but the phone was still turned off.
What was wrong with Shui Yiyao that she actually hung up on him? Wasn't she worried about running out of resources?
The filming in Anle Village will start in three days.
This resource is a big piece of fat meat, the pay is not low, the company is eyeing it, and the contract has been signed, so Shui Yiyao must go.
But before that, she must apologize to Yue Xi.
Yue Xi is the first female artist he has hired, and she is also the most popular and well-regarded one. She is already a second-tier celebrity, and if she has more fans, it will not be a problem for her to become a first-tier celebrity, so her reputation must not be in jeopardy.
Shui Yiyao has always had a bad reputation, so netizens didn't dig deep into what she said last time, but Yue Xi's black fans have already followed the clues to find out.
Shui Yiyao must apologize before the black fans make a big fuss.
Agent Zhang's eyes darkened, and he picked up his phone and made a call.
"Mr. Du, it's me. I want to report to you about Yue Xi's situation."
·
Shui Yiyao got up at 6 o'clock as usual, tidied up in half an hour, and sat down at her workstation.
She opened the automatic recording of yesterday's live broadcast, selected the bead carving segment and downloaded it. She picked up her phone, found Bai Gege's social account, and sent it to her.
-Shui Yiyao: You can take a look at my work.
-Shui Yiyao: Your jade earrings are really beautiful, but it’s a pity that they are half-finished.
-Shui Yiyao: For me, the production period is five days, and the price is 1,000 yuan per gram. Since you are beautiful, I can give you a discount, 888 will be enough.
No matter what, making money is the most important thing.
Bai Gege replied after a while.
-Bai Gege: Okay, let me take a look.
Bai Gege responded quickly, which was within Shui Yiyao's expectations. The novel wrote that Bai Gege would get up very early in the morning to practice singing.
This is very similar to Shui Yiyao herself. She lived with her grandfather since she was a child, and her grandfather would ask her to get up at 6 o'clock in the morning to do jade carving.
After a while, Bai Gege sent back a few voice messages, and Shui Yiyao clicked them to listen.
-Bai Gege: "I saw it, your technique is really good."
Her voice was clear and bright, with a smile on her face. "888 is too cheap. 88,000 is fine."
Shui Yiyao also sent a voice message: "888 is the labor fee for one gram."
-Bai Gege: "Okay, then when should I give it to you?"
Shui Yiyao thought for a moment and said, "I only have one week left on this order, so maybe next Monday."
-Bai Gege: "Next Monday? Aren't you joining the group?"
Shui Yiyao: "Join the group?"
Bai Gege: "Didn't your agent tell you? We're starting production in three days. How will you have time next week?"
Shui Yiyao: "My agent said it hasn't been decided yet."
Bai Gege: "The contracts have been signed."
Shui Yiyao: "Then I'll ask him. You can give it to me when you have time."
"OK."
Shui Yiyao hung up the phone and looked through the address book.
She had to confirm whether to go or not so that she could arrange her time.
She found Brother Zhang's number and was about to call him when she paused. It was too early now. She should call back at 9 o'clock.
She started the live broadcast a little later than usual, but there are usually not many people watching the live broadcast in the morning.
Just as she started carving, a phone call came in before 9 o'clock.
Mr. Du.
Who is this?
Shui Yiyao went over the idea in her mind before answering the phone.
I remembered that he was the person in charge of their department and their immediate superior.
In Shui Yiyao's memory, this man once hinted at some hidden rules for her, which scared her away. After that, Mr. Du never contacted her again, as if nothing had happened.
Shui Yiyao was shocked. What kind of company is this? The agent is a liar, the colleagues are cheating, and the boss is also like that.
Shui Yiyao answered the phone with some disdain: "What's the matter?"
"Apologize to Yue Xi." The voice on the other end of the phone spoke with an order.
"You wish." Shui Yiyao sneered, "Anything else?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then he asked tentatively, "Shui Yiyao?"
"how?"
"Xiaoyao, you slandered artists from the same company in public. This is wrong in the first place."
"When she pushed me into a trap in public, no one said she was wrong," Shui Yiyao replied, adding, "It's impossible for me to apologize. I didn't do anything wrong. Do whatever you want. It's up to you."
"Hang up."
What a waste of time. It's exactly the same thing Brother Zhang said yesterday.
She has the real power and doesn't rely on them for food, so she is not afraid of offending people.
Just after hanging up, Mr. Du called again.
Shui Yiyao picked up the phone: "Anything else?"
"You have to know that although the contract has been signed, resource exchange is a very normal thing in the industry."
"Besides Anle Village, there's another variety show," Mr. Du said slowly. "You should have heard of that variety show, Up the Mountains and Down the Sea."
"If you don't go to Anle Village, you can only go up the mountains and down the sea."
"oh."
"It's your choice which variety show to go on. Before noon today, you can send an apology to Yue Xi on Weibo."
Since they have signed a contract with Anle Village, they must go, but another artist of the same company and status can also go.
Shui Yiyao almost laughed out loud: "If you want to go up the mountains and down the sea, then go up the mountains and down the sea. Apologies are out of the question."
"You might as well reconsider this. The situations of these two variety shows are completely different."
"Don't think about it. Just arrange it."
Having signed the contract, she couldn't refuse the company's offer to arrange a job for her, and she couldn't afford the liquidated damages now. As soon as she had money, she would terminate the contract immediately.
This is so deceptive, what is going on?
At twelve o'clock noon, Agent Zhang called Shui Yiyao.
"Your Anle Village is gone." His tone was quite proud: "It's been replaced by someone else. Do you think it has to be you? If you were obedient, you would have joined the group by now. You see, this is what disobedient people do——"
"Stop blabbering on, let's get to the point." Shui Yiyao interrupted him, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Manager Zhang choked on his breath. "...Shangshanxiahai will join the crew in two days. Be prepared. You will go by yourself when the time comes."
"I understand." Shui Yiyao responded.
Agent Zhang: "If you... give—"
"I think so," Shui Yiyao interrupted Agent Zhang and laughed, "Yuexi stabbed me in the back, and you stabbed me in the face. You two really are a pair of cunning people."
Shui Yiyao cursed and hung up before Agent Zhang could react.
Agent Zhang didn't call again.
She put her phone aside, wiped her hands, picked up the carving knife and jade carving, and started carving.
I carved it for almost an hour before I remembered that the live broadcast was not on.
When she made the call just now, she turned off the live broadcast room.
When she returned to the live broadcast room, a group of netizens asked her where she had been.
-Did you go on a date?
-The phone call lasted long enough.
-An hour.
Shui Yiyao: "I just got on the phone. It's the boss of my part-time job. I have a busy part-time job."
"In the next two days, I might have to go out for a part-time job and won't be able to do the live broadcast."
Is this how hard the boss works? He's running a jade carving business worth seven figures while also working a part-time job.
-Is your part-time job design or painting?
"Let's talk about something else," Shui Yiyao said. "Do you know the variety show 'Up the Mountains and Down the Seas'?"
She hasn't had time to check it yet.
-I know, I know!
-This variety show is very popular.
-Does the anchor watch this too?
Shui Yiyao raised her eyebrows. Angry?
This is unlikely. Zhang's agent went to the leadership to complain first. If it was just to move her from the popular variety show Anle Village to another popular variety show, what's the point?
-It’s really popular, my whole family loves to watch it.
-It’s very exciting. The guests for the next episode have not been announced yet. I don’t know which stars will come to challenge.
Shui Yiyao saw the key point: "What kind of content are usually challenged? I haven't seen it yet."
-Actually, there isn't anything too exciting or challenging.
-In addition to the fixed activities of climbing snow-capped mountains and diving, there are also activities such as crossing the desert, surfing, bungee jumping, etc.
-It's quite fun!
Shui Yiyao's hand paused.
...So exciting?
diving?
