"What's going on?" Lin Aike was pleasantly surprised: "Didn't the previous surge slow down?"

Could it be that the company is promoting her? But didn’t the agent say that they would cooperate with the marketing when the show was aired? The assistant handed her the phone: "It’s President Sheng, President Sheng is on the hot search again!"

Lin Aike was stunned. Didn't the popularity of the rich lady's book fan drop? Could it be that some big V made a post that caused the popularity to rise again?

But when she took the phone and looked at it, she was shocked.

"Huaxing Building belongs to Mr. Sheng?!!!"

Many companies in the entertainment industry are located in Shanghai, and the company that Lin Aike signed with is also often stationed in Shanghai. She certainly knows what Huaxing Building represents.

"Yes, you see, some capable netizens have already found out that Huaxing Building has indeed just changed hands, and the new owner is named Sheng."

Lin Aike was still confused: "Could it be that we just happen to have the same last name?"

"No way?" The assistant said excitedly, "Didn't President Sheng's company just open? This is totally right. And didn't you tell me, Keke, that President Sheng told you that her company was going to open in Shanghai?"

Lin Aike immediately recalled the scene of that day in her mind.

After they finished their midnight snack, Sheng Quan drank milk tea on the way back, carrying the remaining sausage, and said to her while walking and eating:

"I also plan to open a company in Shanghai. Come and visit me then."

Having rented an apartment before, she immediately shared a lot of her experiences in renting a house with Sheng Quan, most of which were her complaints about "you never know what your neighbors do."

After listening to this, Sheng Quan ate sausage with milk tea and concluded: "Indeed, it is not good if it is not your own territory, so I should open it in my own territory."

At that time, Lin Aike only thought that the "territory" she was talking about referred to an ordinary floor in an ordinary building.

So, the territory that Mr. Sheng mentioned actually refers to an entire commercial building?!

And the most outrageous thing is that she bought it new.

Lin Aike knew that Sheng Quan was rich, but she didn't know he was so rich!

Before this, she always thought that Mr. Sheng was just a middle-class rich second-generation who was generous with his money. Let’s put it this way, many rich second-generations can afford 10 million, but they may not be interested in the entertainment industry.

But if you want to buy an entire building, and of the standard of Huaxing Building, you can’t find more than three in the whole of Shanghai.

"No wonder, no wonder Mr. Wang from Yushuo Media is so flattering to Mr. Sheng..."

Lin Aike murmured, she looked down at her hands: "I actually went to eat barbecue hand in hand with a super rich man who owns a building in Shanghai."

"I even ate roasted chicken hearts with her."

"We also watch handsome guys together."

"I even refused her offer of milk tea because I was afraid of getting fat."

If she were given another chance, she would just say: drink to make me fat.

Like her, other crew members also fell into the same state of doubt about life.

Zhou Zhi: "Oh my god, how many billions does this cost?"

Wang Zheng was typing on the computer and typed a number and handed it to Zhou Zhi to see.

Zhou Zhi: "One, ten, a hundred... I never dreamed that I would have the chance to count to a hundred when I have hundreds of millions in my life... Oh my god, my number of fans is increasing faster than before. Am I going to become an overnight celebrity by riding on Mr. Sheng's fame?!"

Lin Aike: "We all became famous overnight because of Mr. Sheng's fame. If Director Wan hadn't refused the interview, a lot of people would have wanted to interview us to ask about Mr. Sheng's situation on the set."

"Yan Hui, take a look at how your Weibo followers have increased. I'm so envious. You were signed by President Sheng himself, so there must be more people following you."

Yan Hui nodded, took out his cell phone and was about to look at it when suddenly the phone rang. It was Sheng Quan.

The leading actors who were just chattering excitedly about the increase in their fan base suddenly fell silent. Although they looked calm on the surface, in fact, they all wanted to prick up their ears to listen to what Sheng Quan had to say.

To be honest, Yan Hui was also very excited, and a little flattered, thinking, "Mr. Sheng is so rich, why did he sign me when he couldn't sign anyone else?" He thought that his appearance was not outstanding and his personality was too dull. The only thing he could show off was his acting skills, but there were many people with acting skills in the entertainment industry.

Mr. Sheng's signature may not be worth mentioning to her, but to him, it changed his entire life.

"The company dormitory has been decided. It's near the company. You can go back to the dormitory directly after you finish filming. Also, I have discussed with Wan Bao that you should postpone the filming you are doing these two days and go to shoot "Crane Hua Nian" for two days first."

Yan Hui immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll go tonight."

"Okay, by the way, the company is looking for an agent. Do you have an agent you would like to work with?"

Yan Hui's eyes lit up slightly, and his gentle voice sounded slightly expectant, but also a little bit nervous about whether Sheng Quan would agree:

"Yes, there is one, but she should still be working in another company. But I think she would be willing to switch to our company."

On the other end of the phone, Sheng Quan smiled.

She knew who Yan Hui was talking about. To be more precise, when she asked the question, she knew what Yan Hui's answer would be.

Yuan Zixin.

Her ending in "Starlight" was: she had outstanding abilities, but was forced to resign several times, and eventually disappeared without a trace, never to be heard from again.

Because she is just a small agent and has only been mentioned once from Yan Hui's perspective, readers have basically no impression of her.

Sheng Quan liked her very much, or to be more precise, he admired her.

A document was thrown on the table, and the boss sitting behind the desk was furious: "Fortunately you signed it, otherwise I don't know how you would have explained it to your superiors. Didn't you notice that Mr. Wu wanted to chat with Mingqi, and when you approached him, Mr. Wu's face turned black."

Yuan Zixin picked up the contract and said, "Is that a chat? If I hadn't blocked it, his hand would have reached under Mingqi's skirt. Mingqi was already crying with fear, but he was still touching her. What a bitch."

"There's nothing we can do about it. He's a pervert, and so are you. You know that there are so many of us sitting there, and he could at most touch us and take advantage of us. Why did you have to go through this trouble? Now the higher-ups have a problem with you, and I can't protect you."

The boss was also troubled: "Look at you, you are so capable, but why can't you change your bad habit of being chivalrous? Do you think you are shooting a martial arts TV series? I know you think those artists are young and you want to protect them, but they may not appreciate it.

Look at that Wen Guang, you protected him so well, and he became famous, but what happened? He turned around and kicked you out, and blamed you for not giving him better resources. I feel like I have a heart attack for you!"

Hearing the name Wen Guang, Yuan Zixin's face darkened for a moment: "I was indeed wrong about this matter. I didn't expect him to set up a person in front of me, but Mingqi told me clearly that she didn't want to get any resources in this way."

"It's no use if she doesn't want to. The company wants her to make money." The boss sighed, "Even if Mingqi doesn't want to, you don't want to and I don't want to either, so what's the point? This industry is like this. Since you can't change it, just turn a blind eye."

"Well, let's not talk about it anymore. This is your problem. Come with me to apologize to Mr. Wu later. Try to smooth things over. Don't do this again in the future."

Yuan Zixin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Boss, I really can't do it. My conscience really can't let it go. Maybe I'm really not suitable for this circle. I thought about it for a long time and decided that it's better to resign. Thank you for tolerating me for so long."

She turned to leave, and her boss suddenly called her: "Zi Xin."

Yuan Zixin turned around and saw her boss's complicated expression: "In fact, I used to be like you, but you have to know that people have to live. If everyone is black and you are white, then you will be excluded no matter where you go."

"Come back when you figure it out, and I'll keep a place for you."

Yuan Zixin stood there for a second, but eventually turned around and left:

"Thank you, but I probably won't be back."

She was packing up her things in her office, and soon the news of Yuan Zixin's resignation spread throughout the company.

A colleague came to see her off and advised her to apologize to her superiors. Mingqi came in crying and asked if it was because Yuan Zixin helped her that she ended up resigning.

"It's my fault. If I hadn't asked you, Sister Yuan, for help, things wouldn't have turned out like this. I'll go and apologize to them. Sister Yuan, please don't leave, okay?"

Yuan Zixin reached out and wiped away Mingqi's tears: "It's not your fault, it's just that I was not suitable to be here."

She said, "After I leave, you have to stand up for yourself, understand? You are now half of the company's cash cow, but they dare to control you because you are too soft. If you are tough, they will be afraid of losing both their money and their lives, and will not do anything to you."

Mingqi nodded while crying. She was pretty, and even though she was about to burst into tears, she still looked very beautiful with tears in her eyes:

"I've got it. I'm going to act well and shoot well. Wait for me. When I become a big star, I can let you, Sister Yuan, continue to be my agent."

Yuan Zixin was amused by her crying intermittently and making great wishes: "Don't tell me, someone said that to me before."

Mingqi had just reached adulthood, and was innocent. Even though she was crying sadly, she was immediately attracted to him and opened her red and swollen eyes: "Who is it?"

"A nice guy who's just as good as me."

Speaking of the three words "nice guy", Yuan Zixin's tone was self-deprecating. In a place like the entertainment industry, helping others has become something worthy of ridicule and being called crazy.

Sometimes, the very people who ask them for help will even turn around and attack them.

Mingqi was confused: "So how is he now?"

Now.

Yuan Zixin thought of the trending search she saw today, and her mind flashed back to the young Yan Hui standing in front of other artists of the same period. His body was clearly shaking, but he was still stubbornly holding on without moving, saying, "You are committing a crime. If you take another step forward, I will call the police."

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.

Looking at Mingqi, who was as young as Yan Hui ten years ago, Yuan Zixin touched her head and said, "Well... he is very lucky to have met a very good person."

That young, sincere Miss Sheng who was only appreciative.

Yuan Zixin was both happy for him and envious of him.

But now, none of this matters to her.

When leaving the company, Yuan Zixin met Wen Guang head-on.

Her expression did not fluctuate at all.

Wen Guang felt a little proud, but also a little guilty.

As the two of them crossed paths, Wen Guang suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Yuan Zixin who was walking forward, "No other company is willing to accept you. If you don't do this job, you won't even be able to make ends meet."

Yuan Zixin ignored him and just walked out of the company.

As she walked out, her phone rang.

Yuan Zixin freed her hand and answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Hello, I'm Sheng Quan."

Sheng Quan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the 33rd floor of Huaxing Building, looking at the hustle and bustle of traffic below.

"Do you have any intention of changing jobs?"
