Tang Yaoyao smiled lazily and casually, with a slight curve to her lips: "I find her pleasing to the eye."
Su Mei: "..."
Do you find her pleasing to the eye?
Such a simple reason?
In the entertainment industry, any female celebrity who catches Brother Yao's eye has a chance to become a big star.
A sly glint appeared in Tang Yaoyao's eyes, and her smile became even more profound and captivating.
Finding Jiang Ruyun pleasing to the eye was only a very minor reason.
When the filming of "The Fox Fairy" begins, everyone will pay attention to the actors, but Tan Lu, who was once the most popular and famous actress of Tianyu Media, has passed away.
If Tianyu Media fails to make someone famous in a short period of time, it will face an unprecedented period of stagnation.
She alone cannot carry the whole project, after all, the role she took on only pays 10,000 yuan per episode.
The project was originally priced at 530,000, but after deducting taxes, the net proceeds were only a little over 400,000.
The company takes half of that, so the actual amount she received was less than what she spent when she took Su Mei and Pei Jin to the mall when she first arrived in Blue City.
It doesn't even earn as much as a Weibo seller in a single day.
On the contrary, the male lead, Gu Qingfeng, received a total salary of 70 million for this drama.
This is a person's worth.
Even though she keeps trending on social media, it only increases her popularity. To truly increase her value, she needs to have excellent works.
But she needs this TV series to rebuild her reputation.
On the surface, she accepted a role in a fantasy drama with an exorbitant fee, but in reality, her current income is insufficient to cover the company's operating expenses.
Tang Yaoyao was very confident; in her view, acquiring the 10% stake in Tianyu Media was a must.
So, she was a small boss at EE-Media, and before that, she had to cultivate a new artist for the company.
I met Jiang Ruyun once before. Although I wouldn't say I found her very pleasing to the eye, she was still quite nice.
Therefore, she chose her from a perspective of self-interest.
At this moment, Jiang Ruyun and her agent Xiao Ke had already approached.
Su Mei quickly stood up and gave a formulaic smile: "Xiao Ke, from now on we'll be partners."
Xiao Ke was a woman in her thirties. She glanced at Su Mei, her voice not showing much joy: "Yes."
"Now, this drama, I..."
"Ruyun is tired, she'll go back to her room to rest first, we won't chat any longer," Xiao Ke interrupted her coldly.
Jiang Ruyun looked at the two of them and smiled brightly: "Please give me your guidance in the future."
Tang Yaoyao narrowed her eyes slightly, curled her lips, and said with a seductive look in her eyes, "Okay."
"Regarding the scenes with the second female lead, I'd like to..."
"Alright, you're tired. We can talk about it tomorrow." Xiao Ke interrupted her, took her hand, and quickly left.
Tang Yaoyao smiled subtly, toying with a green leaf in her hand.
Su Mei clearly sensed Xiao Ke's disdain, as if speaking to them was a disgrace.
Su Mei said unhappily, "If you hadn't given her the opportunity, would she have been able to get into the 'Fox Fairy' production team? She probably wouldn't have even been able to get past the threshold. She doesn't even know who she is, and I don't know where she got her sense of superiority from."
Su Mei is really disgusting.
She got angrier and angrier as she spoke: "Brother Yao, I don't know why you chose Jiang Ruyun. Look at her agent, she's so arrogant and thinks she's a big shot. It's disgusting."
Tang Yaoyao smiled gently, seemingly charming, but her eyes held a chilling killing intent.
She slowly and deliberately tore the green leaf in her hand.
He sprinkled some into the small flowerpot and casually smirked, "Green leaves are always just leaves; they're only there to set off the beauty of the flowers."
Su Mei was stunned for a moment, then looked at her and felt that Yao Ge's aura had changed, and there was a sense of destruction about it.
Then, she said with a slight smile, "Since these green leaves are growing in such a mess, they should naturally be cut off."
She would absolutely not allow the female artists she wanted to promote to have an arrogant and disdainful manager by their side.
Su Mei sensed a murderous aura.
This Xiao Ke has now formed a grudge against Brother Yao.
Inside the lounge.
Jiang Ruyun entered the room and looked at Xiao Ke with displeasure: "Sister Xiao, why didn't you want me to talk to them just now?"
"What's there to say?" Xiao Ke looked at him with a disappointed expression: "You're kind and try to talk to them, but they think you're stupid and a fool."
“I don’t think they would think that way,” Jiang Ruyun reasoned with her.
"That's all an illusion. How long have you been in the industry? What do you know? People's hearts are unpredictable. You and she are still in competition."
Jiang Ruyun frowned: "I think you're overthinking it."
"Don't worry about what I think. Just understand that Tan Lu is dead now, and no one is in the top spot. In the current situation, only you and she have a chance to compete. Instead of staying away from her, you're getting closer. Have you forgotten how Tan Lu and Jiang Xiaoyu fell from grace?"
Jiang Ruyun disagreed: "Sister Xiao, you have to understand that Tan Lu was exposed for doing something disgusting, while Jiang Xiaoyu tried to harm Tang Yaoyao, so they ended up like this. They deserved it."
"He only has himself to blame? Ha, the entertainment industry is a dog-eat-dog world. Who can really say who's right and who's wrong?"
"But……"
Xiao Ke's face darkened, clearly displeased, and she interrupted her sharply: "Alright, how can a newcomer like you understand the cutthroat world of entertainment? I'm your manager, and if you want to make a name for yourself, you have to listen to me."
Even though she said that, Jiang Ruyun still felt that she was judging a gentleman by her own petty standards.
She used to have a bad opinion of Tang Yaoyao, but now she doesn't think she's bad.
Xiao saw that she reluctantly shut her mouth, sighed slightly, and said in a gentler tone: "Ruyun, I am your manager. I would never harm you. Just stay away from her. From now on, you will definitely be the number one star. You have to believe me."
Jiang Ruyun is the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. Seeing the sincerity in her eyes, I didn't get angry, but that doesn't mean I agree with her values.
Those people got what they deserved, but in Sister Xiao's eyes, Tang Yaoyao became the worst.
"You're new to the industry and too naive. There's no such thing as true love or friendship in this industry; everyone prioritizes their own interests. I've seen more of the world than you have. If you trust me, I'll make you a huge star."
Jiang Ruyun didn't want to argue with her either, and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about this anymore, it's too heavy. I just want to be myself."
Xiao Ke smiled and took her hand: "Ruyun, don't worry. As long as you listen to me, I can get you the role of the second female lead in 'Fox Fairy,' and you'll have a much better chance to shine."
Although Jiang Ruyun did not agree with some of her words, she was very grateful to her.
Actually, she didn't expect that Xiao Ke had fought for this role for her.
