Chapter 43: The boss who raises children
Shen Ju'an: ...
Shen Ju'an was silent for half a minute. He didn't expect Xu Youyou to still not give up on this matter. He was afraid that Xu Youyou would keep pestering him, so he said directly: "You treat your bodyguards so well. I will help you contact some reliable old comrades."
Xu Youyou really hit the snake stick: "Aren't you moved at all?"
Shen Ju'an: "Next time for sure."
Xu Youyou looked at these familiar four words and gritted her teeth secretly. She had actually thought it through. If Shen Ju'an was willing to sign with her company, she would let him and Song Zhibai create a couple.
She is even willing to buy a gay drama script for these two. By then, the marketing route will be easy to determine: a sunny and cheerful big boy and a fragile and weak little white flower. Because these two are her artists, she doesn't even need to clean up her fans. She can lock them in for life! CP fans will be sugar-coating for life, and she will make money for life.
Xu Youyou watched Jinshan fly away! "What a pity." Xu Youyou was heartbroken.
Since the other party was unwilling, she could only earn double the money back from Song Zhibai with tears in her eyes.
Song Zhibai suddenly felt something was wrong these two days. He had not yet joined the TV series, but Xu Youyou often hung around in front of him, looking at him with a weird and fanatical look.
If there wasn't really no desire in Xu Youyou's eyes, Song Zhibai almost suspected that she was having evil thoughts about him.
Song Zhibai soon discovered that there was someone more annoying than him.
That was the acting teacher Xu Youyou hired for him.
"Teacher Liu, has our Xiao Song made great progress in the past two days?" Xu Youyou seized the opportunity and asked the acting teacher.
Teacher Liu actually likes Song Zhibai very much. After all, there are too many evildoers in the entertainment industry in recent years. It is rare to meet a young man who is good-looking and willing to calm down and learn, and he cherishes him very much.
If Song Zhibai can keep up this learning attitude, Teacher Liu feels that he will definitely become famous. Then, with this good reputation, Teacher Liu can continue to make a living as an acting teacher.
But one thing at a time, Teacher Liu couldn't stand Xu Youyou asking the same question eight hundred times a day.
"Mr. Xu, I know you value your own artists, but you shouldn't be like Zi Han's mother, torturing the teachers all day long!" Teacher Liu said helplessly.
Xu Youyou laughed dryly. It wasn't like she had nothing else to do but stare at her own cash cow.
Teacher Liu added, "Mr. Xu, I read the script you prepared for Xiao Song. As long as the makeup and styling don't hold him back, he can at least become a little famous with this role."
Xu Youyou was not satisfied: "Can it only be a small fire?"
The value that artists of different levels can create varies greatly.
Xu Youyou wants Song Zhibai to be a top star like he was in his previous life, as this is related to her financial future.
Teacher Liu was a little annoyed and said, "Boss Xu, there's a saying in the entertainment industry that small success depends on promotion, big success depends on luck. The TV series hasn't been filmed yet, and you're expecting Xiao Song to become famous overnight. Isn't this embarrassing? He's only been in the entertainment industry for a few days? He's only filmed one short drama, but he has a million fans on Weibo. This is already a miracle!"
Xu Youyou was stunned by what the professional said.
"Boss Xu, too much pressure can lead to bad things. If you keep an eye on Xiao Song every day, and Xiao Song doesn't perform well on the set, you will miss the opportunity. It will be too late for you to regret it then."
Listening to Teacher Liu's words, Xu Youyou looked at Song Zhibai, who was holding the script with a frown on his face, and couldn't help but wonder if she was really pushing him too hard. In her previous life, Song Zhibai became famous easily, and Xu Youyou was afraid that if she intervened, it would make him less famous, which would be a loss.
Song Zhibai was indeed under a lot of pressure during this period. He finished reading the few pages of the script and wanted to promise Xu Youyou that he would study hard, but he didn't expect that when he looked up, the person was gone.
Xu Youyou didn't dare to personally monitor Song Zhibai's acting studies, so she came up with a roundabout way to save the situation:
Song Zhibai and Teacher Liu would receive tonic soup sent by Xu Youyou every now and then, and they would receive encouraging text messages from Xu Youyou on their mobile phone almost every day.
"Xiao Song, you have improved a lot today compared to yesterday. I believe you can play this role well!"
"Xiao Song, although you are not a professional actor, you have very few traces of acting now. You will be the next best actor!"
Song Zhibai was not used to these flattery at first, but after seeing it more and more, he would not be used to it if Xu Youyou didn’t send him a message one day.
Xu Youyou had been idle for more than ten days in a row. She felt like grass was growing on her body when there was no task of picking up bargains. She even went to the jade museum to watch people gamble on jadeite.
The owner of the jade museum naturally remembered Xu Youyou.
"Ms. Xu, you come here every day and I treat you to a lot of good tea and water, but you haven't bought a single stone!" The boss complained half-truthfully.
Xu Youyou has been looking at stones here a lot these days, but she can't tell the difference between them at all. She has also seen many stone gamblers lose their fortunes here, so she naturally doesn't dare to get involved, for fear that she can't control herself and become a real gambler.
"I'll learn it first, and then I'll buy it when I've learned it." Xu Youyou said.
The boss chuckled and said, "Learning? It's called learning only if you participate in it yourself. Ms. Xu, to be honest, sometimes I even doubt that you've ever quit drugs."
Xu Youyou: Huh? "Don't talk nonsense, I am a five-good youth in the new society!"
The boss explained: "If you hadn't quit drugs, how could you have endured so many days without buying a single stone! You're almost going bankrupt just by drinking tea!"
Xu Youyou knew that this boss was just a chatterbox. She was about to retort when her eyes suddenly fixed.
She saw someone who, in her opinion, shouldn't be here.
"Xueying, this is the Jade Pavilion, the largest jade gambling site in Shanghai. There is a saying that one cut can make you rich or poor. Many people come here to gamble to change their fate. If they win, they get a villa or a luxury car, but if they lose, they jump off a building and commit suicide."
When Gu Xueying heard what Lu Shaoyan said, her little face was full of innocence: "This place doesn't look that dark, are you lying to me?"
Lu Shaoyan was amused by her clear and innocent look and said, "For poor people, a piece of stone here could make them go bankrupt, but people like us are just here to have fun, who needs hundreds of millions?"
The corners of Gu Xueying's mouth slightly raised, revealing a very faint smile.
She could have maintained her ladylike demeanor until she saw Xu Youyou drinking tea leisurely at the long mahogany table in the Jade Hall.
Lu Shaoyan looked down on the jade gamblers who were waiting outside the door, but when he saw the owner of the jade museum, he still showed some politeness.
"Mr. Lu, are you bringing friends here to play?" the boss asked with a smile.
Lu Shaoyan introduced Gu Xueying to the boss: "This is my good friend Miss Gu, Xueying, this is Boss Chen, the owner of this jade museum."
Gu Xueying smiled and nodded, and then her eyes were fixed on Xu Youyou. The expression in her eyes changed constantly, like a fan-shaped pattern.
"Boss Chen, who is this lady?" Lu Shaoyan was also very curious about Xu Youyou's identity.
