Zhang Jinhua’s words made Yan Ci’s expression freeze.
When they came in just now, they had already expressed his stance. Now, she was turning her back on her?
Although the entertainment industry valued benefits above all else, she shouldn’t act like this, right?
Don’t you have any shame?
“But we’ve already reached a verbal agreement.”
“Yinian said that casually. Besides, there’s no contract between us. Director Yan, don’t spout nonsense.”
Zhao Haihong turned around and looked at Zhao Yinian. “Since you know each other, just work together. I’ll find someone else for my show.”
…..
“Director Zhao, you’ve misunderstood. 1 don’t know them. I was just being polite just now.” Zhao Yinian hurriedly said.
“I knew you’d come, and I thought you two were close, so I agreed. 1 wouldn’t have said that if you weren’t here.”
In an extremely short period of time, Zhao Yinian weighed the pros and cons.
Zhao Haihong was a big director in the industry. No matter what his motive was, she could not afford to offend him.
Only by standing with him could she maintain her position and gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, no matter what, she could not make him unhappy.
As for her relationship with Lin Yi, it was naturally best if she could maintain it. However, it wouldn’t be a big deal if she couldn’t.
“You don’t know us?” Yan Ci looked unfriendly. “Ms. Zhao, you can say that you don’t want to cooperate, but it’s a little too much to say that you don’t know us.”
“We’re really not close. I only participated in your show once and didn’t interact much, so our relationship isn’t considered good,” Zhao Yinian said.
“There’s indeed nothing between us, but what about you and Lin Yi? Without him, you wouldn’t even have the chance to get on the island, let alone reach the end,” Yan Ci snorted.
Zhao Yinian frowned. Lin Yi had indeed helped her before, but that was all in the past.
For the sake of her career, she could never have anything to do with him again!
Otherwise, her acting career would be over!
“Director Yan, please respect the truth. We were working together back then.” Zhao Yinian looked at Lin Yi.
“Although he has an outstanding appearance, to put it bluntly, he’s just an ordinary person. He wants to use my name to make a name for himself and enter the entertainment industry. I used his ability to land on the island. We each had our own needs. Why is it that in your eyes, it was only him who was helping me? This isn’t right, is it?”
“Heh…”
Lin Yi smiled. “If 1 remember correctly, I told you that I’m not short of money. Why would I bother entering the entertainment industry?”
“I’m guessing that this is something that you’ve discussed before,” Zhao Yinian said.
“She created a rich man’s image for you so that you could enter the entertainment industry in the future.”
“You!”
Yan Ci was so angry that she couldn’t speak. If it weren’t for this show, she wouldn’t have become so famous.
However, now, this girl was being so ungrateful!
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have helped her back then!
She couldn’t give her a chance!
“Alright, calm down.” Lin Yi patted Yan Ci’s shoulder and smiled.
“So be it. There’s someone else besides her.”
“Yinian, let’s go. Let’s find a place to talk to Director Zhao about the next movie,” Zhang Jinhua said.
“Uh-huh.”
Zhao Yinian smiled and walked up to Zhao Haihong. “Director Zhao, let’s go. Let’s find a place to talk about this in detail.”
“Let’s go,” Zhao Haihong said arrogantly, as if Lin Yi and Yan Ci were not even worthy of his gaze.
It was as if he was saying, “You don’t have the right to compete with me.”
Clang!
After the three of them left, the private room fell silent.
“Damn it!”
Yan Ci combed her hair back and cursed angrily.
“Why are you angry?” Lin Yi smiled. “It’s not a big deal.”
“I didn’t expect her to be so ungrateful. If it weren’t for you, she wouldn’t even be able to get off the ship. Even if she starred in a television drama now, she wouldn’t be as famous as she is now.” Yan Ci was so angry that her chest heaved. “For the sake of fame, she discarded all morals!”
“You can’t judge a book by its cover. Didn’t 1 make this mistake too?”
Compared to Yan Ci, Lin Yi was very open-minded.
Compared to the sinister behavior of the people in the business circle, such a small incident in the entertainment industry was nothing to him. These were just scraps.
“I just feel sorry for you.”
“Alright, Director Yan, calm down,” Lin Yi said. “Let’s go find a place to eat. I’m hungry.”
“Isn’t this a restaurant? We can just eat here,” Yan Ci said.
“The food here doesn’t taste good. It’s far inferior to the barbeque stalls outside.”
Yan Ci picked up his bag and stood up. “You’re really the most down-to-earth tycoon I’ve seen in the past few years.”
The two of them chatted and laughed as they left the hotel. Then, Lin Yi drove and left the food stall with Yan. They ordered some barbecue and beer and drank happily.
“What kind of program are you planning?” Lin Yi asked while eating.
“It’s similar to your current life. It’s similar to a country experience program. It’s slow-paced and focuses on mindfulness.” Yan Ci clinked glasses with Lin Yi. “Do you have any suggestions?”
“You’re having a heart-to-heart chat with someone like me who only knows how to seek thrills. Sister, you’re asking the wrong person.”
“I’m not kidding. Give me some advice.”
“The format of domestic variety shows has mostly taken shape, and the primary audience is almost exclusively female. As long as you grasp this main direction well, you’ll be fine.”
“Based on what you said, I should arrange for you to star in the show,” Yan Ci said with a smile. “I’ll light up your abs, and the ratings will definitely go up.”
“Stop it. This is a serious program. We can’t focus on selling my body.”
After the joke, Yan Ci became serious.
“I’ve already thought about what you said. That’s why 1 want to find a popular celebrity as well as some veteran actors. This way, 1 can control the rhythm of the entire venue.”
“I think that’s a good idea. In that way, the show will be firmly in your control,” Lin Yi said, “Do you need my help with anything else?”
“When I’m short of money, I’ll definitely look for you.”
“I’m not talking about the money. I’m talking about other things, like actors and production teams.”
“Hmm? You have connections in this area?”
“I guess so. I’ll ask around for you if you need me to. 1’11 get back to you tomorrow.”
“That’s great,” Yan Ci said.
“The guests are indeed a difficult problem. The schedules of the popular stars are all packed, and the appeal of those with clearer schedules is not as powerful. This will be tricky.”
“Leave it to me.”
Lin Yi felt that this was quite a coincidence. The Xiao Lidong he met during the day was from a media company.
He was definitely an expert in this aspect. It probably wouldn’t be a problem to talk to him about this.
The two of them drank until ten o’clock at night. Yan Ci’s alcohol tolerance was indeed good.
After seven bottles of beer, she was still fine.
After the meal, Yan Ci paid the bill and whispered into Lin Yi’s ear, “I’m on my period. 1’11 take care of you tonight. We’ll talk about the rest later..’”
