Chapter 13 The Murderer is Right in Front of You 4



After Sheng Yiyi signed the contract, Secretary Zhao suddenly realized that President Lin was indeed a master. Although the two dramas were very popular and the four actors were also very popular, Sheng Yiyi and Yu Ke had the highest popularity among the four.

It's likely that President Lin initially wanted to sign Sheng Yiyi, since Yu Ke is a very opinionated person, while Sheng Yiyi is more obedient. President Lin even persuaded Yu Ke to pursue further studies to pave the way for Sheng Yiyi, so for a short period, the focus of attention was solely on Sheng Yiyi.

Mr. Lin never intended to hire those two boys. After all, there are already several top male celebrities in the market who are competing with each other. To stand out from the competition, a large amount of capital investment is required. Based on what we have observed so far, Mr. Lin's style of doing things is to leverage small investments to achieve big benefits (in short, to do big things with little money).

In Secretary Zhao's eyes, the eldest CEO Lin, who inherited the group, was the real expert. But now, he realized that the Lin family had no charlatans. The young CEO Lin was just as capable. What a remarkable family!

Perhaps in a couple of years, Feiyang Entertainment will also occupy an important position in the group, and Secretary Zhao will then be a key figure in helping President Lin build his empire! His status will definitely rise sharply!

Of course, Lin Xiaoxiao herself was unaware of Secretary Zhao's wild ideas. At this time, she was still dealing with the conflict between Wang Li and Zhang Erdai.

Why is it that the screenwriters of every one of her dramas always seem to have a falling out? Is it true that too many cooks spoil the broth?

Lin Xiaoxiao initially just listened without intending to get involved, since she had already said that Zhang Erdai would be fully responsible.

However, unexpectedly, less than a week later, Wang Li requested a transfer to logistics, and Zhang Erdai even stated that there could only be one of Wang Li and her.

Lin Xiaoxiao realized things were getting serious, but Wang Li and Zhang Erdai were like "Sleeping Dragon" and "Phoenix Chick" in her eyes. After all, one was a jinxed actor who worked hard on his dramas but never made a splash, and the other was a "golden" screenwriter who had many projects but was always criticized. She didn't want to give up either of them unless absolutely necessary, so she had to figure out the whole story first.

However, after figuring things out, Lin Xiaoxiao realized that this was indeed something that couldn't be resolved. The two were simply incompatible; one was a detail-oriented person, while the other was a bit scatterbrained.

Wang Li said that Zhang Erdai's fabricated story lacked logic and did not conform to normal logic. Zhang Erdai said that Wang Li's story was just a rambling account with a disjointed plot.

Lin Xiaoxiao herself was powerless to do anything, so she arranged a week-long trip for the two of them at her own expense. She thought that during the trip, He Yue could finish writing the entire script, and the two of them could make minor revisions when they returned, and then start filming immediately.

As for Wang Li and Zhang Erdai, Lin Xiaoxiao said, "You each have your own strengths, and I can't just kick one of you out of the team. So, I arranged this trip partly to help you develop some chemistry and partly to help you generate new ideas. Of course, it's all for the better of our show."

The two stepped into the boarding gate, about four or five people apart.

Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and finally saw these two troublemakers off.

The only remaining screenwriter, He Yue, is also under immense pressure. She's fine with writing assigned topics, but she has absolutely no experience with suspense, a genre she's unfamiliar with. The two experienced and qualified screenwriters are both on leave.

He Yue was almost driven crazy with worry, not to mention that President Lin asked her to finish writing it before the two of them returned, which was impossible in a week.

On the other side, Zhang Erdai and Wang Li were at loggerheads, with Zhang Erdai even paying for an upgrade to avoid sitting with Wang Li.

However, after getting off the plane, the two still had to go to the hotel together with the tour guide hired by Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Hello, you two. What brings you to Tongcheng this time of year?"

When the tour guide saw the two turn their heads in the opposite direction and not reply, she felt a little embarrassed. She had thought that accompanying the two people for a high price was a good job, but it took her a lot of effort to snatch the order from a bunch of tour guides.

Tour guide Yi, a man of considerable experience, asked, "Do you two have any favorite attractions?"

Zhang Erdai scoffed, "I dislike those bland, uninteresting tourist attractions that nitpick over details and make no sense."

Tour guide Yi was about to write it down when he realized that this wasn't about tourist attractions at all, and he hadn't yet come up with a solution.

Wang Li retorted, "That's better than a melodramatic soap opera where all sorts of things are piled together."

Zhang Erdai rolled his eyes, turned around, and said, "What you wrote is utter nonsense, complete gibberish."

Wang Li's expression was displeased. "That's still better than you."

"He has no representative works, yet he claims to be better than me. I think he's better at talking than me."

"You have many representative works, but they are all family dramas, and the ratings are not very good."

"I may not have written any suspense dramas, but I've met many masters of suspense dramas, all of whom are far better than you, a self-employed screenwriter."

Wang Li was hit where it hurt, and his emotions gradually rose. "You don't understand suspense at all, that's why you can say such stupid things. You probably haven't even completed a murder mystery or escape room game."

Zhang Erdai was so angry at the word "low-IQ" that he jumped up from his chair. "What's so difficult about murder mystery games and escape rooms?!"

"Then let's go."

"Let's go then."

The two said in unison, "Guide, now take us to the highest-rated murder mystery game shop."

When the two started arguing, tour guide Yi tried to mediate while also observing the situation. At first, he thought they were a couple with a significant age gap, but later he realized they were clearly colleagues.

While tour guide Yi was enjoying the gossip, the two suddenly brought up his own story, so he could only hurriedly agree to search for the highest-rated murder mystery game shop in Tongcheng.
