"Taozi, I came here this time just to have a good talk with you."
Dai Shutao, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, glanced at Sister Chen and said nothing. She was not a fool. Sister Chen came here with a threatening attitude this time, and it must be nothing good.
Dai Shutao remained silent, but Sister Chen didn't care. She said to herself, "If you say you don't want to act, then don't act. You're really being a bit willful. How about this, let's make three rules."
Sister Chen walked up to Dai Shutao and made this decision, which took a lot of determination on her part.
"I can let you not join the crew recently. There are a few variety shows that want to invite you as a guest. Variety shows are the easiest to make money right now. You can just make a cameo appearance. It's easy and you can get paid. Why not?"
The conditions are now clearly laid out here, and we are just waiting for Dai Shutao's reply.
Dai Shutao's vision was a little dazed. Not sleeping for a whole night was still a bit tiring for her current body.
Sister Chen on the side kept muttering, but her main point was only one.
I don’t agree with her retiring from the entertainment industry, but I can ask her not to join the group now.
I still have to go on the show, even if the contract is not renewed now.
What a bullshit equal treaty! It's clearly an unfair clause, and it's being flaunted in the name of concession.
"I don't."
The two words that Dai Shutao uttered easily aroused Sister Chen's anger. She endured it again and again before forcing herself to say the content of the concession.
"You said before that you wanted to do something... lyrics and music, right? I've discussed it with the company. As long as you're willing to cooperate, the company will pay to find you a few ghostwriters. Then, if you want to establish yourself as an independent songwriter, that's fine too. As long as you don't make mistakes, it's up to you."
Gunman?
Hearing these two words, Dai Shutao burst out laughing.
In my previous life, when I didn’t want to see anyone because of my appearance, I had never been a ghostwriter in this circle. The two words "Mu Tao" were a well-known trademark.
How could someone like her hire a ghostwriter?
Dai Shutao was about to say something back when he suddenly stopped talking and became silent.
How could she forget that she was no longer in her original identity and her original company contract had not yet expired. If they did anything now, it would only be detrimental to their future.
Isn't it just a few variety shows? As long as she doesn't have to act, anything is fine.
"Okay then." Dai Shutao hesitated for a while, "But there's no need to hire a gunman or anything like that. We can talk about the future later."
Just kidding, after hiring a ghostwriter, even if you don’t use their work, when you leave the company in the future, these will become reasons to attack you.
She would have to be crazy to shoot herself in the foot.
Dai Shutao smiled sweetly, but Sister Chen stared at her suspiciously for a long time. She always felt that the heroine in front of her was different from before, but she couldn't put it into words when asked to explain it in detail. She could only look away half-believingly.
"Okay, I'll go reply to that letter right away. There's a long-running variety show tonight, so you should make the most of your time to catch up on some sleep. And don't forget to put on some eye patches to hide those dark circles."
Dai Shutao naturally nodded in agreement. As soon as Sister Chen left, she rushed to the bedroom and immediately picked up the papers scattered on the bed.
Fortunately, Sister Chen didn't have the urge to go into her bedroom just now, otherwise she would have seen a bed full of lyrics.
It was still not possible to live here. Dai Shutao frowned as she packed up. She had to find a new place to live. The house had to be in her own name, and she also had to buy a bunch of musical instruments.
Thinking of the precious musical instruments he used to use in his previous life, Dai Shutao's eyes twitched with heartache.
The original body doesn't have much money. If he wants to raise a large sum of money in a short period of time, he may have to sell his things.
For example, those rough diamonds placed in the cloakroom.
Having made up his mind, Dai Shutao pondered for a while, switched his WeChat account, and agreed to Hu Ke's friend request.
At the same time, Hu Ke was dozing off at his desk. When he heard the WeChat notification sound, he suddenly opened his eyes, blinked his sharp eyes in confusion, and then he turned his attention to the phone.
Seeing the word "Mu Tao" appear in the middle of the screen, Hu Ke jumped up from his chair as if his butt was on fire, and quickly typed out a greeting with his teeth bared.
"Hello, Mr. Mu Tao. I'm Hu Ke, Zhao Weige's agent. We've received the work you sent us. I hope to have the opportunity to meet with you to discuss specific details of our collaboration."
Hu Ke waited anxiously for a long time. Since he entered this industry, he had not felt so uneasy for a long time.
Qin Guican's cold expression was still vivid in his mind, which made him shudder. He was about to type the second line of words with hope.
At this moment, the other party was typing words, which made Hu Ke wait patiently for a while before he saw a message from Mu Tao.
"Do you know where to buy rough diamonds?"
This sentence made Hu Ke stand there in a daze for more than ten seconds before he slowly reacted.
It turned out that this creator, whom he admired very much, was just taking himself seriously. But it didn't matter, talented people always had some weird tempers.
Hu Ke had been around for so long that he knew quite a few well-known jewelers. He just said hello and pushed his business card over.
After waiting for a long time with great anticipation, Hu Ke finally heard a sentence.
"Thanks."
That's it? Hu Ke stared at his phone, his whole body as if broken and rebuilt. He couldn't muster any strength at all, and suddenly felt like he was being teased.
Dai Shutao said with satisfaction that after sending the last photo of the raw stone to the jeweler, he agreed on a transaction location with the other party, turned off his phone and waited for Sister Chen to pick him up.
In her previous life, Dai Shutao rarely wore makeup. In this life, looking at the wall of lipsticks on her original body, she felt that the colors were all similar.
When Sister Chen came, she was wearing a long skirt. Dai Shutao looked at the shiny fabric and the silver-white sequins on it, and wondered if she would reflect light when the lights were on.
On the way to the recording site, Sister Chen held the tablet in her hand and gave instructions one by one.
"This is an established variety show, so we won't ask about the negative online material you've been seeing lately. Just cooperate a bit during the game. Forget about your usual aloof and arrogant demeanor. We're going for a more approachable approach this time."
Dai Shutao's quick response at the press conference won her the favor of some passers-by and helped her get rid of the label of being a naive person. This was a blessing in disguise.
Sister Chen thought about it privately and decided to take this opportunity to create a new character for Dai Shutao.
For example, the character of an open-minded person who is reborn from the ashes is very good. The only worry is whether Dai Shutao will be arrogant.
"I know, I know. It's just down-to-earth."
Dai Shutao agreed to all the inquiries with a smile. When she thought about the considerable income she would have in a couple of days, her smile became even sweeter.
Although Dai Shutao caused a bit of a stir some time ago, her popularity remained high after the incident. When she went to the celebrity makeup artist, there were still a lot of people eagerly greeting her.
After barely dealing with the makeup artists, Dai Shutao slipped into the stairwell to take a breath while Sister Chen went out to answer the phone, but heard an ambiguous voice.
