Chapter 355 Xie Manyu is here, brother will give it to you for free [1 update]
Xie Manyu is a film queen, but she has never acted in a TV series, so her popularity naturally cannot compare with those actresses of the same age.
Even if her acting skills are stronger.
After all, the audience for TV dramas is still wider than that for movies.
But last summer, she and Shang Yaozhi participated in a talent show together, which further increased her popularity.
More than half a year has passed since that talent show, and netizens are still discussing who this mysterious fashion designer, "Mei," really is.
Unfortunately, they have not been able to find them, including the employees of Chuguang Media.
Many celebrities in the industry have inquired about this with Xie Manyu, but haven't received any useful answers.
Most importantly, Xie Manyu landed a role with Universal Pictures in October 2020.
Universal Pictures is undoubtedly the world's number one film company.
They were originally an animation company, and many of their comic book characters had a huge global influence and were popular throughout the last century.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Universal Pictures adapted these animated films into live-action versions.
Their casting process is always very demanding; even if someone's physique is unsuitable, being an international film star or actor is not enough.
Xie Manyu is currently the only Chinese person to have won a leading role in a film.
The character she played already had a large number of anime fans, so her popularity naturally skyrocketed.
When Universal Pictures released the casting call, many netizens on Weibo were already discussing who would be chosen by Universal Pictures.
Someone also started a poll, and Ye Xi was among those polled.
Because Ye Xi is a top celebrity with a large fan base, her votes far exceeded those of others.
So when Universal Pictures finally announced the casting results to the world, Ye Xi inevitably faced ridicule.
However, she was quickly stopped by her fans, and even managed to thoroughly humiliate them.
Currently, six of the top ten highest-grossing films worldwide are produced by Universal Pictures, demonstrating its formidable strength.
As for Qin Lingyu, she also came from a talent show, but it was an overseas talent show.
She returned to China in 2019, and upon her return, she instantly became a top-tier celebrity.
Among female celebrities, her status is simply unmatched.
Even though Ye Xi has been gaining momentum lately, he doesn't have the strength to go head-to-head with Qin Lingyu.
"Xixi, don't worry." Chen Li analyzed calmly. She smiled and said, "Xie Manyu's status is what it is, and Qin Lingyu is too proud to look up to her. The production team can't invite either of them."
"The remaining veteran artists are even less likely to come, and if the production team doesn't invite those two, they'll be criticized by your fans no matter who they invite."
Ye Xi frowned: "But didn't Producer Li say that Chuguang Media is the biggest investor this time, and Xie Manyu is from Chuguang Media?"
“She came from Chuguang Media, but she has already established her own studio.” Chen Li was confident of victory. “Chuguang Media cannot influence her thoughts, let alone get Xie Manyu to personally participate in a talent show.”
"Besides, Xie Manyu is going abroad to film a movie at the end of February. Does she have time to participate in 'Youth 202'?"
Filming for "Youth 202" will continue until April, and there simply isn't enough time in the schedule.
Hearing this, Ye Xi felt relieved: "Sister Li, I'll rest for a while. If the production team calls, just call me."
Chen Li waved her hand, indicating that Ye Xi should do as she pleased.
She sat down at the computer and then had the public relations department release a press release.

On the east side of the capital, there is a large antique street.
When Ying Zijin talked about making money, she meant going to hunt for antiques.
Her divine calculation abilities are gone, so she can't calculate the exact year of the antique, but she can still distinguish between genuine and fake.
Mu Heqing also frequented this street, so he bought up most of the genuine antiques and donated them to the Imperial Museum.
Ying Zijing squatted down in front of a stall and pointed to a golden goblet: "Boss, how much is this?"
The boss noticed that although the girl wasn't dressed in designer clothes, she had an extraordinary air about her, and immediately knew that he must have met a big client.
His eyes lit up: "One price, two hundred thousand."
Upon hearing the price, Ying Zijing raised her head, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly.
The boss, realizing his embarrassment, said, "Well, how about a 20% discount, 160,000?"
A slender, fair hand reached out and took the golden goblet.
Fu Yunshen toyed with the golden goblet, his voice laced with amusement: "You're selling a replica of a Tang Dynasty wine cup for 160,000?"
The boss was even more embarrassed, not expecting his little scheme to be exposed so easily: "How about ten thousand?"
He spent five thousand yuan to buy this golden goblet, hoping to sell it for a high price.
Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow, paid the bill slowly, and placed the golden goblet in Ying Zijin's hand.
He seems to have discovered something.
His child seems to be very interested in gold.
Ying Zijing put the golden goblet in her pocket, her tone unhurried and leisurely: "Brother, you lied to me again."
"Hmm?" Fu Yunshen raised his eyelashes, amused. "How did I lie? He originally thought this golden goblet was a fake. He saw you as a piece of fat meat and wanted to fleece you."
This gold goblet is indeed not a replica; it is genuine.
If it were put at an auction, the price would be in the millions.
"And what do you mean by 'again'?" Fu Yunshen raised his hand and pinched her cheek. "Little girl, you have to explain this."
Ying Zijing raised an eyebrow: "Look at me, I have no power or influence—"
She didn't finish her sentence.
Ying Zijin lowered her eyes slightly.
His fingers pressed against her lips, silencing her from saying anything more.
It was icy cold, yet it sent a jolt of electricity through it.
The temperature is gradually rising.
Fu Yunshen looked helpless and had no choice but to coax her: "Yaoyao, alright, I give up."
Who could have imagined that his casual remark would become a weapon against him?
The phone rang at that moment.
Ying Zijing then slapped his hand away and went to answer the phone.
The call was from my female secretary, and it was about something that happened on Weibo.
The female secretary made this call simply because she felt sorry for her boss's money.
Such minor matters are handled by designated personnel within the company, so there's no need to trouble the boss.
"Hmm." Ying Zijing wasn't surprised. She pondered for a moment, "How much would it cost to acquire Tianxing Entertainment?"
The female secretary was startled: "Boss, are you serious?"
Tianxing Entertainment is gaining momentum and has partnered with the international entertainment company Times Media, making it a level above Star Entertainment back then.
Ying Zijing yawned: "Seriously."
"That will probably take some time," the female secretary said seriously. "Don't worry, boss. You can focus on being beautiful, and we'll make money for you."
Ying Zijin: "..."
She hung up the phone.
“I think she’s right.” Fu Yunshen leaned to the side, his long legs bent, his peach blossom eyes raised. “Little girl, you take care of being beautiful, and I’ll make money for you, how about it?”
Ying Zijing glanced at him: "I probably can't afford to hire you."
This isn't the president of Venus Group's Asia Pacific region, he's the CEO.
"Others want money," Fu Yunshen said lazily. "What about you, Yaoyao? I'll work for free."
Ying Zijing didn't respond. She took two steps, then turned around and said, "Don't pinch my cheeks anymore."
Fu Yunshen paused for a moment, then raised an eyebrow: "How could that have been done before?"
"Oh, I've changed my mind."
"..."
Fu Yunshen thought about it and realized that he had no experience in this area, so he decided to ask Nie Yi.
Does your daughter have unpredictable tempers?
One minute later, Nie Yi replied.
If you ask when her temper doesn't fluctuate, that's the answer.
"..."

On the other side.
Xie Manyu had just finished a promotional event and returned to her studio. She was leisurely leaning back in her swivel chair, scrolling through Weibo, when she naturally came across the trending topics.
After clicking through and reading it, she thought for a moment and then asked, "Is this 'Youth 202' a project of our company?"
Upon hearing this, the agent said, "It's not exactly a project, but it represents a large portion of the investment."
"Sister Xie?" The agent was surprised and somewhat disapproving. "You really want to go?"
For Xie Manyu to participate in this kind of variety show would be beneath her status and would likely cause dissatisfaction among her fans.
There have been such examples before.
A couple of years ago, a veteran international film star participated in a variety show, which caused a large number of fans to leave her.
"Are you stupid?" Xie Manyu knew his worries. "Don't my fans know what kind of persona I have?"
The agent was stunned: "Sister Xie, do you have a persona?"
"Of course," Xie Manyu said slowly. "I like handsome young men."
broker:"……"
That's not wrong.
“Although the company hasn’t contacted me, I’m just sitting around doing nothing anyway,” Xie Manyu said. “Why don’t you contact the production team of ‘Youth 202’ and see if they want me?”
