"You misunderstood." Ziyi smiled. "I came early just to give her more leverage. I had no intention of interfering with your final decision."
"Then may I ask, what is your relationship with her?" Fang Jinyao's tone was calm, but his eyes were as sharp as a hawk, as if he was confirming whether Ziyi's words were true or not. "After all, Xiao Zi was pursuing Shu Baizhu before. Of course, Xiao Zi doesn't have to deny this. The circle is so small, and the news... I can still tell the truth from the false."
"Xiaozi, you have to know that same-sex marriage is not legal in China. If such news were to be exposed, it would be like saying goodbye to your future. Since you want me to lead someone, you have to let me understand the risks first."
Ziyi knew that Fang Jinyao was telling the truth.
She was silent for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Friend?"
"It seems that Xiaozi is not very clear about her own preferences," Fang Jinyao played with the stirring spoon in the coffee cup.
The metal stirring spoon made a slight sound when it hit the wall of the ceramic cup.
"How about I ask the question another way? In my opinion, Qin Yuhuan and Shu Baizhu have similar personalities, which means there's a high probability that their resources will overlap in the future. Of course, this is based on the premise that I agree to take on this artist."
Qin Yuhuan now doesn’t even have the qualifications to compete with Shu Baizhu for resources.
"Everyone can see that President Xiaozi favors Shu Baizhu. When that day comes, what will President Xiaozi choose?"
Since Ziyi is using herself as a bargaining chip to increase Qin Yuhuan's chances of success, Fang Jinyao must know that this bargaining chip belonging to Qin Yuhuan is unique and there are still variables.
Assuming it is the latter, it means that in addition to two, there may be three, four, or even more chips, and the value of the chips will naturally have to be re-evaluated.
"I understand what you mean," Ziyi nodded, her tone serious. "I will remain neutral. We will each use our own methods. Don't worry about that."
"Okay, then I'll wait for an artist who is willing to be Xiaozi's bargaining chip to come to me. However, my current attitude can tell Xiaozi that my hope is not great. Her face is beautiful enough, and the bargaining chip Xiaozi gives is strong enough, but it's not enough to make me fall in love."
Fang Jinyao has her own selection criteria. Her current understanding of Qin Yuhuan is limited to the rumors in the circle and the two pieces of information provided by Ziyi, the authenticity of which is unknown. This is far from enough.
"If Qin Yuhuan had left an impression on you, my trip would have been worthwhile. Thank you for your time." Ziyi stood up and extended her hand to Fang Jinyao. "I look forward to more opportunities for us to work together, Agent Fang."
"Thank you, Xiaozi, for your understanding." Fang Jinyao shook hands with him.
Ziyi smiled and said, "I'm looking for an agent for Qin Yuhuan, not to create an enemy for her. She still has a long way to go in the industry, and maybe she'll meet Agent Fang again someday."
Ziyi did not hide the fact of meeting Fang Jinyao from Qin Yuhuan.
Qin Yuhuan was silent for a long time, sounding a little depressed. "In this case, I owe you a lot, Ziyi. You have done more than we agreed at the beginning."
"Do you feel like you are a thing?" Ziyi seemed not to have heard the question of whether Qin Yuhuan was asking whether he owed anything or not, and suddenly said something off topic.
Qin Yuhuan sat on a small stool beside the crew, a script covered with notes resting on her knees. She lowered her head and wrote a few words on the script before speaking softly, "Do you feel like this question is a bit of an insult to me?"
The two of them laughed at the same time, and Ziyi exclaimed, "Alright, alright, Qin Yuhuan is happy. What I mean is, you're like a piggy bank, wanting to put a dollar in it every day. It's not a question of whether it's worth it, but just a question of whether you want to or not."
"But if it bothered you, I apologize. There won't be a next time, okay? Don't be mad at me."
"I'm not mad at you," Qin Yuhuan's face turned from cloudy to sunny. "You explained it very clearly, Xiaozi. I will be a dedicated piggy bank and make you want to give me a dollar every day."
In this way, there will be a cuckoo in her life every day.
"When I save up enough, I'll give you a bunch of gold coins."
Ziyi smiled happily, "I'm waiting to be drowned in gold coins, but..."
"But it doesn't matter whether it happens or not. What matters is that I'm happy." Qin Yuhuan has already memorized Ziyi's classic lines. She can even improvise them freely, adding in her broken Cantonese accent: "In life, the most important thing is to be happy."
"Hahahaha, no thanks, Qin Yuhuan, you only passed Mandarin, your tone is hahahahaha." He looked like a child imitating someone else's speech. "Not really, it's quite cute."
Ziyi imitated Qin Yuhuan's tone and said the same Cantonese words.
Qin Yuhuan snorted, "Ziyi, you're imitating my speech. You have a bad taste. I'm going to embezzle the one dollar you deposited today."
"Go ahead and eat it. I'll save two for tomorrow." Ziyi smiled. "But your break time is really long today. Someone called you more than ten minutes ago."
"I don't have many scenes today, so I'll be watching the crew and learning more. I calculated that after filming this drama, I can get about 100,000 yuan. It's a good opportunity to take a break and find an acting class. Do you think it's feasible?"
When it comes to acting, relying on one's own efforts is too slow. Qin Yuhuan doesn't consider herself a talented artist, so she needs a professional course.
"It's feasible," Ziyi said, seemingly agreeing with Qin Yuhuan's idea. "I know there's a professor in Jinxi who runs a social studies class every year. You could give it a try."
"Are you going to act as my bargaining chip and resource again?" Qin Yuhuan certainly knew that there were only two places in the social class, but there were so many people in the circle. One place depended entirely on connections, and the other depended on grades. It was a chance given by the old professor to those who didn't have enough connections.
"I want to take the exam, Xiaozi. That spot is too precious. If you still want to use your resources to help me exchange it, I can't estimate how much you will have to pay. It's not worth it."
"I knew you would say that. It seems you've been doing your homework privately." Ziyi and Qin Yuhuan had only known each other for a short time, but she had a hunch and wasn't surprised at all by Qin Yuhuan's choice. "Come on, Yuyu!"
"You...what did you call me?" Qin Yuhuan was a little dazed.
"Yu Yu, I see your fans all call you that. After all, I'm also a fan of your career now, so calling you Yu Yu shouldn't be too much."
Qin Yuhuan's cold laughter came from the other end of the phone, "It seems that Xiaozi has become a fan of me too."
"That's right," Ziyi turned around in her chair. "If I can get more celebrity soon and get some endorsements, my wallet will be full. Yuyu, give me a chance."
