She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

The magic show on the stage was still going on enthusiastically, but Su Lingxi and Wu He had already lifted their skirts and slipped away to the backstage lounge one after the other - the reason was simple: Wu He couldn't stand the tight dress and planned to come back and change into a more comfortable one.

It just so happened that Su Lingxi was also feeling bored sitting inside, so the two of them hit it off and ran to the lounge to take a break.

"Tsk, Zhuang Keyan has really made it. She has even started buying press releases to promote her." Wu He lay on the sofa, casually flicking at the screen of his mobile phone.

Su Lingxi and she lay on another sofa in unison, looking tired: "The color of Ke Yan's dress today really suits her. She's pretty."

From the afternoon until now, she has needed to keep smiling and looking elegant in front of the camera most of the time. After several hours, Su Lingxi felt that her face was about to become stiff from smiling.

"By the way, have you been in contact with the "Urban Girl" project recently?" Wu He suddenly seemed to remember something and asked her loudly.

Su Lingxi nodded, her eyes still closed: "Sister Yang showed me part of the script last month, and I thought it was pretty good. Now we have almost agreed on it, except for some details that have yet to be finalized."

Wu He frowned in confusion, "But I heard that Dai Xiaoyue is also in contact with this project. Are you going to work together in the play?"

Dai Xiaoyue?

Su Lingxi opened her eyes and had a bad feeling in her heart.

Ever since Dai Xiaoyue's agent changed from Yang Qian to Song Yue, she hasn't heard from her for a long time.

I only vaguely remember that she starred in a very popular palace fighting costume drama during the summer vacation. Although she was only the second female lead in the drama, she successfully attracted a lot of fans and successfully became one of the 00 flowers.

Su Lingxi's bad premonition was confirmed at noon the next day.

With a "bang", a large pile of folders were thrown onto the table. Everyone in the meeting room paused what they were doing because of the unexpected sound.

"It's so ridiculous, like being in a movie!" Yang Qian supported herself on the table with both hands, leaning forward, with the corners of her mouth curved up exaggeratedly - Su Lingxi knew that this was often a sign that she was really angry.

"Does she think that she can sit back and relax just because she's with Huasheng Films? She doesn't even think about why others would support her for no reason?"

"How stupid!"

Yang Qian was so angry that her eyes were almost burning with anger.

This was the first time Su Lingxi saw her so angry about something.

In comparison, Ruan Tang looked much calmer.

"Don't be angry. Getting angry now won't solve any problems." She said calmly, "Look at the bright side. At least Dai Xiaoyue is willing to pay the penalty honestly, so we won't have to take this matter to court."

The meeting room became even quieter.

Yang Qian sighed and began to reflect on herself, "This is all my fault. If I hadn't thrown her to Song Yue at the time..."

After hearing this, Su Lingxi understood that the reason why she was so angry was due to a layer of self-blame.

"I say again, I fully support your decision at that time." Ruan Tang also sighed, "She has proved with her behavior that she and you are not compatible working partners at all."

"She secretly accepted the role you told her not to take, which shows that she doesn't trust you and is questioning your professional ability. She was just a newcomer I had just signed at the time, but she had the confidence to do this, which shows how difficult it is to manage her as an artist."

"I do like talented young actors, but Dai Xiaoyue's character flaws are so obvious that they even overshadow her strengths."

Ruan Tang analyzed in a calm tone, as if he was talking about another company's business.

"Huasheng Films poached her with the intention of competing with us. Grabbing the role now is just the first step. We must prepare plans for various situations in advance and respond accordingly."

Probably inspired by Ruan Tang's emotions, Yang Qian slowly returned to her usual orderliness. "Huasheng helped her get the project for 'Urban Girls', which means that their plan for Dai Xiaoyue is to focus on TV dramas - of course, it could also be that they don't have a way to find a movie project suitable for her for the time being."

Huasheng Films has capital from Hong Kong and Taiwan behind it, so it was able to put together and shoot big-budget action films like "Operation Chase".

But this is not the last century, and capital from Hong Kong and Taiwan is not a popular background. Moreover, after so many years of turbulence and blood transfusion, Huasheng Film and Television’s influence on the film industry is obviously not as great as Ruan Tang’s.

In addition to her connections in the film director circle, Ruan Tang also has good relations with most people in the imperial capital circle - after all, with Tang Wanhua as the middleman, naturally everyone is willing to give her some face.

The Tang family is a family that can make the entire imperial capital tremble with just a stomp of their feet.

Since Huasheng Film and Television wants to make money, they cannot do without the vast market of the mainland, and they dare not offend the imperial capital circle.

This is also the real reason why they would help Dai Xiaoyue pay the penalty for breach of contract - at least they can't make things too embarrassing with Ruan Tang in public.

But no matter what, the role originally intended for Su Lingxi was snatched away, and this grudge must have been completely formed.

"The crew said that her offer was only 500,000, which was cheaper, so they chose her." Ruan Tang adjusted her sitting position and looked at Su Lingxi, "But the news I got privately was that Huasheng managed to get the producer of this drama and Li Lingyi, one of the leading actors."

"It's Li Lingyi again." Yang Qian rubbed her temples with a headache, "Does she just want to make you unhappy?"

Ruan Tang put the cap back on the pen and smiled noncommittally, "Maybe."

She and Li Lingyi met when they were filming "Shanghai Love". At that time, Li Lingyi was still a high school girl and she was just a new actor. In the play, they were happy enemies who couldn't stand each other, but outside the play, they got along more like friendly sisters.

Unfortunately, the entertainment industry is a big melting pot, and some people change as time goes by.

The few occasional encounters between the two afterwards were always hostile, and there was no trace of the harmony and friendship they had before.

Just like what her seniors told Ruan Tang when she first entered the industry, it is difficult to make friends with people in the entertainment industry because most of them will eventually become competitors.

There are too many people and too little food, who wouldn't want to fight for it? Everyone is a beauty picked out of a hundred, who would be willing to admit defeat?

No matter how hard you try to give up the friendship, you have to give it up.

"I guess they might have snatched this role because of Lingxi." Zhang Wenya said cautiously: "Before this, the news that Lingxi was involved in this project had already spread throughout the industry."

"It seems that Huasheng Film and Television is not very confident in their own film selection ability." Ruan Tang showed an expected smile on her face.
