Chapter 77: The Movie Star's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (28)
During the days Wen Wan stayed in the hospital, Gu Yiqin came over every day, bringing her chicken soup he had made and various tonics. Chen Jie and Xiao Qi felt like they had no use for her anymore.
Sometimes I even feel like I don't fit in, like two bright light bulbs.
When Gu Yiqin was gone, Chen Jie looked at Wen Wan as if she were the future boss's wife. "To be honest, have you and President Gu developed any kind of relationship? I need to prepare for public relations. Don't be fooled by President Gu's current retreat from the spotlight; he still has quite a few fans and his fighting spirit is extraordinary."
When did President Gu start caring so much about an artist? And he even personally cooked soup for him. Chen Jie would never believe it if there wasn't something fishy going on.
Wen Wan: "I don't know what you're talking about."
Chen Jie: Still keeping us in suspense?
"I won't interfere with your love life, but you can't give up your career for love, you know? I've found some scripts for you, Xiaoqi will give them to you later, you can take a look first."
When the script was mentioned, Wen Wan suddenly remembered that she was rich now! She was already extremely wealthy, so why did she still need to make movies?
"Brother Jie, do you know what investments Xiangyang has made recently?"
"Xiangyang Investment has a lot of scripts, after all, we are a big company. But the resources I can give you right now are all small ones, since we are just starting out, so there's no rush."
Could you please tell me more details?
Chen Jie didn't hide anything and told him everything he knew. Although Xiangyang was one of the top three entertainment agencies in the industry, it was a new company. Although it could guarantee the production of three or four high-quality TV series every year, it was still not enough to compare with the top agencies.
After all, take Feiyue, the largest agency at present, for example. It has several Best Actor and Best Actress winners, as well as top-tier artists. It has also invested in a lot of popular variety shows, movies and TV series. Although its reputation fluctuates greatly, the number of its artists is extremely large.
Xiangyang, on the other hand, had no intention of cultivating traffic; he simply pursued the acting route. Whether you become famous depends on how well you act. Many artists were poached by other agencies after they were made famous.
In addition to the TV series "Double Path", the company has recently prepared two more TV series and one movie, all of which are ready to start filming.
Soon, as the system predicted, Xiao Yan, unable to get Gu Yiqin, began to deal with him. The company's two TV series ran into problems one after another. First, the investors withdrew their investment, then the actors went on strike, and then the company's top artist left for a rival company, even smearing the company for exploiting the actors before leaving.
The actress herself has quite a few fans, and when they learned that their idol had been wronged, they went on a rampage against the agency's Weibo account.
However, Gu Yiqin never showed any of this to Wen Wan. He was always in a hurry and spent less and less time with her. Wen Wan didn't ask, but she started to secretly cause trouble.
Please, what is the one thing she has in abundance right now? Money.
With money, nothing is a problem.
Soon after, Wen Wan had the system set up an investment company and found a manager to help handle all external affairs. The company had no employees and no business; its only purpose was to send money to Gu Yiqin.
No matter how much investment is needed, Wen Wan will invest.
So, just a moment ago Chen Xiaoya was still angry about the investors withdrawing their funds, the next second she attracted investment, and the investors were all fine and didn't ask for actors to promote her or boost her popularity. What kind of amazing collaborator is this?
As for actors, if they're gone, we'll just find more. The entertainment industry has everything, but it's never short of actors.
Chen Xiaoya also learned about the recent events from Gu Yiqin. She didn't know whether she should be shocked that the owner of the account that had disappeared for five years had been found, or that Ning Xianghan had actually impersonated the account owner and even tried to kidnap the account owner, and that these things were actually closely related to the Xiao family.
What on earth is going on?
That Xiao family member is truly a persistent ghost.
Is this a plan to torment Gu Yiqin every five years?
"Yiqin, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Xiaoya knew that Gu Yiqin wouldn't do nothing. Over the years, he hadn't been idle either. After all, when he first started out, he was blacklisted in the industry because he rejected Xiao Yan, and it took him five years of hard work to return to the entertainment circle.
Then came the matter of the white tea, with the Xiao family interfering behind the scenes, almost sending them back to hell.
Gu Yiqin realized then that in this industry, capital calls the shots.
Therefore, although Xiang Yang started in the entertainment industry, his development is not limited to the entertainment industry. Even Chen Xiaoya is not very clear about the specific extent that Gu Yiqin has achieved.
"They thought they could control me forever, but they didn't realize that even an ant, when oppressed to death, will rebel."
...
Wen Wan not only invested in those two films, but also found some work for the Xiao family.
First, they helped their competitors snatch up the land in the most recent bidding, and then they acquired several other projects.
"This company seems to be developing very rapidly! I heard that it will replace the Xiao Group in the future? It has a very promising future." Nan Li looked at the introduction of Qianhe Company, which is a company that has risen in the last two years.
According to the plot outline provided by the system, Qianhe Company will eventually acquire Xiao's Group, though the male and female protagonists will also play a part in this.
But now Gu Yiqin is no longer an actor, and the female lead has turned evil. The plot lines of the two have undergone huge changes. Wen Wan did not expect that Qianhe Company still exists.
Therefore, following the system's suggestion, Wen Wan took the place of the male and female protagonists to help Qianhe Company deal with and restrain the Xiao family.
This plan is absolutely perfect.
Just after transferring the money to Qianhe, Wen Wan heard the doorbell ring, so she quickly shut down her computer and ran to open the door.
"Teacher Gu?"
Wen Wan was very happy to see Gu Yiqin. After being discharged from the hospital, she did not continue to live in the company apartment, but instead moved into the apartment opposite Gu Yiqin's.
According to Gu Yiqin's calligraphy, his neighbor had just moved away.
To be honest, this reason was really lame. The system told Wen Wan that Gu Yiqin had bought his neighbor's house at a high price.
There are many tricks involved, but for Wen Wan, the feeling of being noticed and cared for doesn't seem bad, so she doesn't expose them.
Gu Yiqin, carrying groceries, asked, "Xiao Yuan, I bought some fresh fish for dinner. Would you prefer it braised or steamed?"
Wen Wan thought for a moment and said, "Can't we choose both?"
"Of course, I'll have one braised and one steamed. Come over and eat later."
"Okay, Teacher Gu, thank you, Teacher Gu."
Wen Wan closed the door after Gu Yiqin entered the opposite room.
The system watched this scene unfold. This was supposed to be the male and female leads' part, but now it was all being given to its host. However, seeing the steadily increasing reader favorability, the system resigned itself to its fate.
