Ji Juntao looked at Shang Yechu with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot: "Who told you that? The money I used to start my company came from my mother. What self-made college graduate can start a company at 27?"
Shang Yechu thought about it and agreed, "Why didn't you just join Tianding Entertainment back then? With your mother's connections, it shouldn't have been difficult, right?"
“To be old and not die is to be a thief.” Ji Juntao frowned. “You have no idea how rigid Tianding Entertainment has become. Once Shi Shan and his group of pillars fall, Tianding Entertainment will be pretty much finished. I don’t want to work in such a dead-end place. So I discussed it with my mother and started my own business. Sigh, I haven’t even broken even yet, and I don’t dare to go home for the New Year.”
Shang Yechu leaned against the car door, somewhat dazed.
Now, Shang Yechu finally understood why Ji Juntao had that complicated expression on his face when he talked about Shi Shan hitting on him.
Ji Juntao rolled up the car window and said, "Let's not talk about my mom for now. Now you know why Shi Shan came to find you, right?"
"You mean, he wants me to 'get into character'?"
“That’s right.” Ji Juntao said as he turned the steering wheel, “Shi Shan wouldn’t make things up without reason. Since he came to you, it means that at least in his mind, you are the more suitable candidate for the female lead. Most likely, you’ve already got the role.”
Shang Yechu shook her head, unlike Ji Juntao who was optimistic. "Since you know he has this problem, haven't you considered that he might be casting a wide net and catching many fish, and might have launched an offensive against Wei Xuan as well..."
“That’s true.” Ji Juntao frowned. “I don’t know him. But according to my mother’s description, Shi Shan’s love is like a showerhead, both generous and stingy, and it has a wide reach.”
Even with a head full of questions, Shang Yechu was still amused: "Your words could be arranged into a love poem."
"Sigh." Ji Juntao shrugged as he drove. "Anyway, be careful. You're the top female star in our company. If you start dating during your career's upward trajectory, I'll tear you to shreds before Ye Ya does. From our personal perspective, I don't want your first love to be a piece of trash."
"Lin Yin abandoned her childhood sweetheart and husband for Shi Shan. When Shi Shan broke up with her, he said many hurtful things, which made Lin Yin so ashamed that she almost became depressed. It was Lin Yin's husband who helped her through the low point."
"Did you know that Wang Miyun suddenly lost a lot of weight for a period of time? Her team said that she lost weight for a new role, but actually she suffered from anorexia for a period of time after being dumped by Shi Shan."
"And then there's Zhang Xianghe. She even said she was willing to retire from the entertainment industry and become a housewife for Shi Shan, taking care of her husband and children, and she turned down several roles. But Shi Shan cut off all contact with her just like that, and Zhang Xianghe's career came to a standstill."
"Xie Lu genuinely believed she was special to Shi Shan, and that he had turned over a new leaf for her. But just two weeks later, Shi Shan was happily dating Huang Zhiwei, and he hadn't even broken up with Xie Lu yet..."
Ji Juntao kept nagging, afraid that Shang Yechu might go astray.
Boss Ji admitted that he wasn't exactly a good person either, and even occasionally considered trying to manipulate Shang Yechu with his emotions. But compared to Shi Shan's smooth and seamless fall in love, using all his feelings as props to play his role well, Boss Ji was still completely outmatched.
From an artistic perspective, Shi Shan is an extremely dedicated artist. But judging from the emotional perspective of those female stars, Shi Shan should be hanged.
Ji Juntao knew clearly that this was a man who seemed affectionate, but was actually extremely cold-blooded, selfish, and crazy. What was most terrifying was that every bit of his love seemed genuine.
After hearing Ji Juntao's words, Shang Yechu already disliked Shi Shan very much. Hearing this, she sneered, "What kind of person do you take me for?"
Ji Juntao did not seem to be comforted by Shang Yechu's words, and sighed with worry.
