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

Chapter 29 "You've done so much, you think too highly of me"

Jiang Linyu was still not in a hurry. He took a sip of coffee and continued talking to Shang Wenjing.

"During the audition, I thought I was ignorant. I didn't give any gifts to the staff who notified me of the audition, so I didn't receive the audition script. But when I joined the crew, I saw that you two were so familiar with each other, which was a bit strange. How could a star be so familiar with an ordinary staff member?"

"Later, I was curious and contacted other interviewees that day. Strangely, some interviewees who didn't give gifts received scripts, while most interviewees with better qualifications did not receive scripts. The biggest competitor for this role is Mr. Shang. Why do you think that is?"

Shang Wenjing's expression was quite complicated, and her eyes were no longer as friendly as usual.

“It is also possible that the staff was negligent.”

"Oh, is it so."

Jiang Linyu turned on his phone and showed her a photo. In the photo, it was Huang Maolongge and Shang Wenjing's assistant.

"Is it a coincidence that the assistant of the famous star is doing business with a street thug?"

At this time, Shang Wenjing's face had turned completely pale, and her voice was trembling.

"You, how could you?"

"How would I know?"

Jiang Linyu finished the last sip of coffee in the cup and wiped his mouth with a tissue.

"I was confused on the day of the script seminar. How could my ex-boyfriend know that I would go out that day and crouch outside the pub in advance? Another strange point is, why would a gangster help a student for no reason?"

She paused and looked into Shang Wenjing's eyes.

"Teacher Shang has done so much, he thinks highly of me"

The above things naturally had some flaws, but Shang Wenjing had planned everything and never expected that they would be discovered by a high school student.

After a long silence, she slowly said, "What do you want?"

After saying so much, Jiang Linyu was waiting for her to say this.

"I just need this role and play all my parts"

After a long silence, Shang Wenjing nodded: "Okay, I will tell Luo Qian that I will not take your role again."

Jiang Linyu looked at his watch and left with a last word before getting up.

“I hope you keep your promise”

After going out, Jiang Linyu did not walk far, but turned and walked to the side of the cafe, watching quietly through the glass.

After a few minutes, she saw Rosie enter the cafe.

When Luo Qian saw that the person coming was Shang Wenjing, her face was obviously surprised.

"Where's the new guy named Jiang?"

Shang Wenjing took a long time to recover, and her expression was obviously ugly.

"There's no need to talk about exchanging resources."

"Why? Is it because she doesn't agree?" Luo Qian was immediately annoyed, "Then let's just change her so that she can't even get this variety show."

"You can't just snatch it away. I'll introduce you to the right resources next time." Shang Wenjing was obviously too lazy to explain more to her, so she stood up and was about to leave.

"Wait! Isn't Mr. Wu the investor of this drama?" Luo Qian grabbed her and said, "It's just a matter of your words. Why can't you change it? When will the next time be? I'm afraid the audience has already forgotten me."

"Anyway, we encountered some problems." Shang Wenjing shook her hand away, looked around with some worry, and whispered, "Be careful, you know there are a lot of paparazzi at the film and television base."

"I can't care so much now. Xinghui has terminated my contract. Will I still be able to get acting jobs in the future? Will anyone watch my only crappy variety show?"

"Who should I blame? You're the only one who doesn't listen to the company." Shang Wenjing said this and left without mercy.

Rosie, who was the only one left, kicked the stool in anger. The waiter went up to remind her, but she scolded him instead. Then he walked away angrily picking up his handbag.

Jiang Linyu heard a few "click" sounds of cameras. He looked over and saw two people who looked like reporters not far away. They were squatting in a hidden position and taking pictures of Luo Qian continuously. Their faces were obviously excited.

After making sure that she had secured her role, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, some of what she just said to Shang Wenjing were her guesses, and she didn't have any substantial evidence.

But judging from Shang Wenjing's reaction, she was obviously guilty of something.

After going back and telling Zhang Ye the whole story, Zhang Ye was stunned for a long time and his scalp felt tingling.

"This woman is so scary. She has been targeting you since your audition before we even met. How did you know? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It was just a guess before, but I checked again yesterday and today and now I am a little more confident."

After fully verifying it today, Jiang Linyu took a deep breath.

"The bigger the stakes, the more intense the competition. I narrowly escaped this time. If you hadn't told me that Rosie and Star Shine had terminated their contract, I might not have been able to keep my role."

"Why do you say that?" Zhang Ye asked puzzledly

"If Luo Xi hadn't terminated her contract with Xinghui, she would still have the company to back her up. Don't forget, Xinghui is the major shareholder of our drama production company."

Zhang Ye also understood it immediately, and continued her words: "But Luo Qian terminated the contract and only Shang Wenjing is her backer. Shang Wenjing will definitely prioritize protecting her own interests."

Jiang Linyu nodded, his face still slightly worried.

"But I heard from their conversation today that Shang Wenjing seems to have investors as her backers in addition to her own company. I think this is also the reason why she can be the heroine."

She previously thought that the actors and directors had a close relationship during the filming of a play, but now she knows that in most plays, the producers and investors hold the final say.

In simple terms, the producer is responsible for setting up the stage, and the investor is responsible for paying the money.

Shang Wenjing is not only an artist under the major shareholder of the production company, but also has a relationship with the investors, which means she has a double background.

"Ye Zi, we may need to change..."

"I know." Zhang Ye knew what she wanted to say at once: "I won't act on impulse. I will be careful and stay away from Shang Wenjing in the future."

Jiang Linyu nodded with relief. Although Ye Zi's personality seemed a little impatient, she was able to become a small leader in the company in her previous life, so she knew that she was definitely not a simple-minded person. It's just that she never bothered to play tricks.

"Here, for you." Jiang Linyu suddenly took out a bag from behind him.

When Zhang Ye saw the packaging bag, his eyes widened instantly.

"Nanyuan's baked buns! The queue there takes an hour."

"Eat it, I know you like it"

"Woo woo" Zhang Ye was intoxicated by the fragrance as soon as he opened it: "It's delicious, I love you so much, Xiao Lin Yu"

Jiang Linyu touched her bloated face and said, "Eat slowly, I won't snatch it from you."

"You eat too, eat quickly"

Because of the food, the tension and anxiety of the two were gradually calmed down.

After one hour.

The news that Rosie was acting like a big shot and throwing a tantrum in a cafe was revealed, along with a relatively high-definition version of the video.

Seeing Rosie, who has always been marketing the image of a good girl, kicking the stool, scolding the waiter, and even spitting out a few swear words, the filters of fans and passers-by were shattered.

As the news became more and more popular, Star Shine issued an announcement and posted the contract, saying that it would not renew the contract with Rosie before this month.

The reason for not renewing the contract is implied to be that the artist repeatedly failed to cooperate with the company's arrangements, violated the terms of the contract, and finally did not forget to promote the new artist that the company is supporting.

After the incident, her former employer not only did not speak for her, but instead stepped on her. This incident once again sparked a lot of discussion and heat.

Many comments that initially accused Star Shine of poorly managing artists were instantly reversed, with many saying that the termination of the contract was a good decision and that such artists did not deserve to be in the entertainment industry.

Jiang Linyu also witnessed the power of Xinghui, a media company that is good at creating stars and generating topics, and it never misses any opportunity to hype.

But she also discovered a little detail: Shang Wenjing was not in the video.

Logically, the paparazzi should have also captured the dispute between Luo Qian and Shang Wenjing. Shang Wenjing is obviously more famous, but in the end only Luo Qian was exposed, which can only mean that the news was blocked by Shang Wenjing in advance.

Being able to stop it in such a short time, it seems that Shang Wenjing has the support of Xinghui as well as the help of other resources, and her background is not small.

Could it be the investor of "Courtyard Storm"?

Jiang Linyu, who had no idea about this, decided to find out who the investors of the drama were.
