Reborn to choose a career, I choose to be the most popular female star

After returning, Zhang Ye told Jiang Linyu truthfully about the gossip he heard today and how he fought back.

I was prepared to accept my best friend's blame, but I didn't expect her attitude to be so different.

"That's awesome!" Jiang Linyu gave a thumbs up: "Thank you, great response"

Since joining the group, Jiang Linyu knew that people had been talking about her behind her back, but she just didn't hear it in person.

Ye Zi spoke up for herself today, and showed that although she has no background, she is not someone who can be easily bullied. If someone dares to spread rumors again in the future, they will think twice.

Seeing that she was really not angry, Zhang Ye instantly felt relieved.

"Ah, I'm relieved if you don't blame me. Shang Wenjing pretends to be friendly and amiable, but I don't know what she says about you behind your back, otherwise her assistant wouldn't dare to say that to you."

"I know, but since she didn't break up with me, I just pretended to be with her."

"Lin Yu, you have really changed a lot. I feel like you have matured a lot. You can even be so hypocritical with such a person," Zhang Ye said with emotion.

Jiang Linyu thought to himself that if he still couldn't judge people and learn how to handle interpersonal relationships after being reborn after death, then he would have lived in vain.

"So, little Ye, let me take care of you from now on." She touched Zhang Ye's head.

Zhang Ye looked at her stunningly beautiful face with makeup on, and felt that even as a girl she was fascinated by her.

"Woo woo, Lin Yu, I love you to death"

Jiang Linyu smiled even more, and said in a more serious tone: "Ye Zi, be my assistant. I will pay you until the day you don't want to be my assistant anymore."

Zhang Ye was stunned, thinking she was joking: "Really? What can I do? But I don't understand the entertainment industry."

"Just do what you want to do"

Jiang Linyu knew very well that there would be many more things like today in the future, and it would be hard to find someone who was truly devoted to him.

"Please consider this. Your current salary is not very high. I will increase it little by little as my salary increases."

"I do! Lin Yu, I do! I am willing even without salary." Zhang Ye nodded excitedly, his eyes moistened.

Through what happened today, she also realized that it is indeed not that easy to get into the entertainment industry. Lin Yu has no background and will definitely suffer a lot of grievances in the entertainment industry.

But as long as I am by her side, I will try my best to make sure she suffers less.

“Want a salary”

Jiang Linyu hugged her, thinking back to her previous life when she often complained about her nine-to-five job that brought no sense of accomplishment.

"You can try to see if this is a job you like. If not, you can always change."

"Yeah, this way, even if we don't get into college, we can still be together often in the future."

Speaking of this, Jiang Linyu remembered that the college entrance examination results would be released in half a month, and he would know then.

“We try to get into a university.”

At this time, Zhang Ye's tears were already welling up. She wiped her eyes and choked up and said, "If we could go to the same university, I would cry to death..."

……

After finishing the shooting for the day.

On the way back to the hotel, Shang Wenjing noticed that her assistant was a little different from usual, so she casually asked what was wrong.

Her assistant spoke with indignation on her face, as if she had suffered great injustice.

"Sister Wenjing, I am so angry today. I heard others say this about you."

"Me? Who?" Shang Wenjing looked at her.

"It's that Jiang Linyu. She took advantage of the director's liking for her and asked her assistant to say bad things about you."

The assistant was very angry when he said this, and it was not obvious that he was lying.

"She said you are too old and your acting skills are not as good as Jiang Linyu's. She also said you relied on connections to get to the top. I was so angry when I heard that, I went up to her and scolded her."

Shang Wenjing's face was obviously a little ugly. She had heard people gossiping about her before, but this was the first time she was said that by a newcomer.

"Did she really say that?"

"Yes, everyone else can prove it. Sister Wenjing, you took such good care of her and asked me to buy coffee for her often. I didn't expect she was such an ungrateful person."

"It seems that I was too good to her and felt that she had no one to take care of her."

A hint of disgust flashed across Shang Wenjing's eyes, but soon returned to normal.

"But you don't have to be angry. Since you're speaking up for me, I'll give you a 20% raise starting this month."

The assistant's joy was palpable, but he tried not to show it too obviously.

"Thank you, Sister Wenjing. It is my blessing to be able to follow you. I will still protect you if I encounter such a thing in the future."

Shang Wenjing nodded and said nothing more. He walked towards the hotel while thinking.

……

The next day, Jiang Linyu had just finished filming a scene when a staff member came to tell her that someone was looking for her.

She went with Zhang Ye doubtfully and came to the cafe where the other party had invited them.

When I arrived, I found out that it was a girl I had never seen before. She was about 25 years old, had princess curly hair and bangs, and a round face. She looked very cute.

"Isn't this Luo Xi? She seems to be in the same company as Shang Wenjing. Do you know her?"

Zhang Ye has always been paying attention to the entertainment industry and has watched a lot of dramas, so he recognized the person immediately.

Jiang Linyu shook her head, but like Shang Wenjing, they were both from Xinghui, so she had a hunch that this was not a good thing.

Sure enough, when the other party saw her, he glanced at her from head to toe and said in a bad tone, "Since you are here, just sit down. Do you still want me to treat you?"

Zhang Ye didn't expect that a person with a good-looking face would have such a bad temper and quality. He immediately got angry.

Why are these celebrities so different from the ones on screen?

But seeing Jiang Linyu sitting down with a gloomy look on his face, she had no choice but to sit down with him.

Rosie seemed to be a very direct person. After taking off her sunglasses, she threw a contract directly on the table.

"This is a variety show that will start filming in a few months. It's very suitable for artists like you who need exposure, and the pay is not low."

Jiang Linyu didn't move, and asked, "Miss Luo, what do you mean by this?"

"As long as you give up the role you are playing now, I will exchange my variety show spot for yours."

After hearing this, Zhang Ye got anxious: "Give up? How can you give up when you're already halfway through filming?"

On the contrary, Jiang Linyu's expression did not change, but he turned over the contract on the table.

"Miss Luo wants to exchange resources with me?"

Rosie nodded, looking impatient.

"The production team of this variety show is pretty good, and the investors have basically been secured. Once it airs, the ratings may not be lower than your current show."

After Jiang Linyu finished reading the contract, he closed it and looked at her: "Since this variety show is so good, why did Miss Luo want to exchange with me?"

"Don't worry about that. I'll be frank with you. You may not be able to keep the role if you don't change it."

Rosie looked confident of victory as she admired her manicure.

"You should know that we, Xinghui, are shareholders of the company that created this drama, and you are a newcomer with no fame at all. No one will watch this drama for you. Unlike me, I have works that have appeal, which will be more beneficial to the promotion and broadcast of the drama in the future."

Zhang Ye next to him kept shaking his head slightly at Jiang Linyu, indicating that he should not believe her.

Jiang Linyu stroked Zhang Ye's hand under the table and told her not to worry.

"Miss Luo is right," Jiang Linyu said calmly, "I'm just curious. Even if I agree to change, the director may not agree, right?"

Luo Qian slowly put down her hand, looked at her and said, "Newcomers are newcomers, they don't know anything. Do you really think that Hu Yiming has the final say on this show? Their major shareholder is our Xinghui, and there are other investors who don't have more say than him?"

What she said was very clear, that is, she had background connections with the producers and investors, so it would not be difficult to get the director's agreement.

Jiang Linyu believed that what she said was about 70% true.

Through the filming during this period, she also found that the main director Hu Yiming and the deputy director Wang Qiang did not have much say in many things because they were not famous.

The male and female protagonists were already decided in advance by the investors, and the fact that my role was chosen through auditions was the result of their best efforts.

Jiang Linyu pretended to be embarrassed and then answered her.

"I understand. I just need some time to think about it. I'll reply to Miss Luo after I've thought it over."

"Reply here tomorrow. I don't have much patience."

Luo Xi was not surprised that Jiang Linyu agreed. Any newcomer would do the same. She picked up her bag and went out.

As soon as she left, Zhang Ye could no longer suppress his indignation and excitement.

"This is not robbery! You won't agree to it, will you?"

"Although this variety show is not as good as she said, it is a good opportunity for me to increase my exposure if I can participate in it."

Jiang Linyu glanced at the contract on the table and said lightly:

"But I need a work more than a variety show, and I won't accept forced changes from others."

"I can rest assured that"

Zhang Ye never expected that he would witness the dirty side of the entertainment industry after just one day on the crew.

"What should we do? We don't have any background."

Jiang Linyu looked out the window and thought for a long time before slowly standing up.

"Let's go back first."
