Chapter 177 The Madam is in Charge
"Xiao Yu, let me see what my son Gu Feng thinks. Doesn't he have the looks and the figure? We have the same face. This child is also the president, and he has the best features of me and Old Gu..."
After the conversation got a little better, Chen Sui mentioned Gu Feng.
In front of so many people, Ye Mengyu couldn't say anything else, so she just smiled and said, "Gu Feng is good."
Not a single word was said.
"Then do you think he can get Xingyao's S+ contract?"
Oh my, what a big appetite this guy has! Meng Zhu doesn’t even like him. Not only does he want to join Xingyao directly, but he also wants to get an S+ contract?
You are so confident.
"I dare not say that. Xingyao is run by President Chu. Not to mention that I'm not a Xingyao artist, even Brother Yu doesn't have management rights. Teacher Shen and President Chu are old acquaintances, and she must know her temper. How dare we interfere? We'll just get ripped off."
Mr. Chu’s brand name is still very useful.
"Look at what you said. How can a boss be controlled by his employees?"
Chen Sui obviously didn't believe it.
At this moment, the fourth sister joined in, "Teacher Shen, you know that President Chu is not an ordinary employee, he is the elder of our family. My brother-in-law always says that President Chu is half his mother-in-law, always forcing him to work, and he has no way to resist.
In our family, whenever the eldest brother says something, the brothers and sisters always obey him, and the second sister will never say a word. Think about Mr. Chu's status.
Even our father, President Chu, didn't dare to say a word when he looked at him.
You think too highly of my younger sister. She is the lowest class person in the family, someone who can be bullied by everyone."
Ye Mengyu nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes, looking like a poor little kid being bullied at home.
Um?
Chen Sui was a little skeptical. Could it be that Miss Ye, who seemed so glamorous on the surface, was really just glamorous on the surface?
"Didn't they say that President Chu and Chairman Zhou broke up a long time ago? Your family..."
What I mean is, your dad is taking advantage of loopholes in the marriage law, not getting married at all, and keeping a bunch of ex-girlfriends at home, having three wives and four concubines?
"Even after breaking up, we're still friends. After all, she gave birth to my eldest brother. Even though we're no longer related emotionally, in terms of career and life, we're like family, part of the family."
Both elders are free-spirited people who don't care much about reputation. Their own comfort is the most important thing. There's no need to cut off contact with each other for the sake of what others say.
Ye Mengyu directly retorted, it was already very clear what she said, the old man in our family has his own way of getting along with his ex-girlfriends and doesn't care what others say.
Unlike some people, who get into formal marriages and have children for the sake of gossip and their own reputation.
In comparison, they are even more irresponsible.
Chen Sui could no longer understand Ye Mengyu's attitude. He had been in the entertainment industry for a lifetime.
Many stars of their generation rode the wave of opportunity, endured hardships in their youth, and truly rose to prominence through professional skill. Therefore, many of them may not necessarily have high emotional intelligence. To put it bluntly, they become veteran artists as they age.
Judging from the way she spoke, you could tell that she was used to being flattered, and she looked down on others and acted superior.
Looking at how she does things, the couple are similar, willful and selfish.
A stylish and avant-garde figure standing on the crest of the wave in that era.
Looking at it now, it’s no different from the middle school version of the Funeral Love Family. It’s just the Funeral Love Family of their era.
Seeing Ye Mengyu's reluctance to speak, he felt it was difficult to continue. He turned to Yun Luoxi, trying to find an ally. "Sister Yun, doesn't your princess want to find a big company to work for? Big companies have more resources and more choices. Princess is about the same age as my Gu Feng. Why don't we join the company together and support each other? It will make the road easier..."
What she meant was that she wanted Yun Luoxi to join her in pushing the child to Xingyao. She brought it up in front of so many people. She didn't believe that Ye Mengyu would have the nerve to refuse directly. As long as she said to let the child go for an interview and then take some action when the time comes, how could the contract not be signed?
They are not afraid of opinions. Once they join the company, it is not easy to hide them or exploit them. They have been in the industry for half their lives and it is not in vain.
I still have some connections.
At that time, making a fuss about these things, hyping them up, and playing up the sympathy might be more effective than promoting them too much.
Her idea was good, but Yun Luoxi had just promoted Yun Gege, secured a role in the next play, and made an appointment with Qian Mengzhu. How could she possibly form an alliance with her?
"We Gege don't plan to pursue popularity. We just want to be able to act in roles and take it one step at a time.
Gu Feng is now a new idol in a popular group and is going to be a top star in the future, but he dare not let any rumors about his childhood sweethearts spread, as it will affect Gu Feng's future.
If you ask me, Suizi, you're thinking wrongly. Gu Feng has debuted in a group now, and his agency is at least among the top three in China in terms of cultivating idols.
He's a singer and dancer, but I haven't heard Xingyao prioritizes that. Signing with Xingyao would delay the child's arrival. Besides, how long would it take to earn back the huge penalty?
Because they were old acquaintances and she knew that Chen Sui was a straightforward person, she didn't hide anything and just said whatever she wanted to say.
"Singing and dancing is not a long-term solution after all. In the current domestic entertainment industry, the path for singing is still narrow. It can be used as a way to expand skills or as a stepping stone to make a living, but it is not easy to make a living.
We still want him to act, and he's also interested in that. He's already passed the art exam and will be attending the Film Academy to study acting this September."
"That's great, with you two around, why would he need to worry about resources for his acting career? At worst, let Mr. Yang invest, Director Wang direct, and he can open his own show, and he can still make his child famous. Why bother signing with a company and being chosen, and having to audition and so on, and being picked and chosen by others, and suffer that injustice?"
Um?
Ye Mengyu understood. Gu Feng was being rather headstrong, wasn't he willing to audition? He wanted to just sit back and relax and be the resourceful guy, so he could just be airborne and be the male lead?
Oh yes, the Ms. Yang that Teacher Yun mentioned is Chen Sui’s girlfriend. She is a wealthy woman who inherited hundreds of billions of assets from her ancestors. She has never been married and her sexual orientation is well known.
Director Wang is Gu Yi's boyfriend. They met when they were still little, 30 years ago, and he has been with her ever since. Gu Yi's rise to Best Actor is entirely thanks to Director Wang's continuous support, making him his go-to leading man, a fact widely acknowledged within the industry.
Moreover, Mr. Yang and Director Wang are Shen Nini’s biological parents.
This family lived a very modern life, with four parents raising two children. The two siblings were born to the same parent, but they had no blood relationship.
Yun Luoxi directly brought up General Manager Yang and Director Wang, and also told Chen Sui not to involve her, as she didn't want to offend anyone.
"Yes, Teacher Yun is right. It took me a long time to film my first film after my debut. It was also a project I initiated myself and formed a team. At that time, the well-known screenwriters and directors in the industry refused to take my orders, so I had to ask Teacher Gao for help and introduced me to students from the Film Academy to join me. We are all newcomers, so no one should look down on others.
He really rushed out with his eyes closed.
Gufeng has such great resources from Professor Shen and Professor Gu, so the most cost-effective option is to do the project yourself.”
In the final analysis, the answer is not to accept Gu Feng’s order.
As for whether they have the ability to make a drama on their own, that is their problem.
It has nothing to do with her.
Having said that, Chen Sui knew that it wouldn't work.
Just then, Gu Yi and Jiang Fanyu came over from the other side, and it was obvious that they also failed to make sense.
The last sentence can still be heard, Jiang Fanyu said, "Our wife is the head of the family, and I am in charge of the interior."
Well……
[You're such a jerk! How dare you say that? You're the one in charge? Your wife is the boss? Who are you talking about? Me? What kind of boss am I to you? What kind of boss are you? You're the one who's trying to shift the blame...]
