After the divorce, I became a rich girl

After hearing what Chen Huaijin said, An Ling explained, "I know that, too. But you know, the one who makes the decisions for Meishang now is not me, but Li Jiawei, the largest shareholder of Meishang."

Chen Huaijin pondered for a moment and asked, "What will happen if I don't change my conditions and Yu Manqi doesn't agree to cooperate with the filming?"

An Ling rubbed his brows and sighed helplessly, "Ms. Li means to change people. She won't let unqualified works ruin the integrity of the magazine."

Chen Huaijin hesitated for a moment and said, "I will communicate with Yu Manqi again and ask her to try her best to cooperate with you to reshoot the sample."

After hearing this, An Ling said happily, "That's great. As long as she can cooperate with the reshoot, all problems will be solved."

After finishing the call with An Ling, Chen Huaijin paced around the room. Although she is not very famous in China now, she is Yu Manqi's senior after all, and they belong to the same company. Moreover, although it was Mr. Wang's idea that Yu Manqi was able to appear on the "Meishang" internal publication, it was still due to her reputation. If she called Yu Manqi, the other party should not reject her face, and should agree to reshoot the sample film, right?

Chen Huaijin called Yu Manqi's number. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up, but what came was a series of panting sounds. Chen Huaijin thought she had misheard at first, but after listening carefully, her face suddenly darkened. As an adult, she knew very well what that sound was.

Just as she was about to hang up the phone, Yu Manqi asked in a trembling voice: "Hello... Sister Huaijin, is there... anything I can help you with?"

Chen Huaijin took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm: "Manqi, Editor-in-Chief An of 'Meishang' contacted me today and said that the sample you shot did not meet the requirements. Can you cooperate with them to reshoot it today?"

However, just as Chen Huaijin finished speaking, there were loud screams from a man and a woman on the other end of the line, followed by Mr. Wang's angry roar: "Meishang really takes itself seriously and asked Manqi to reshoot? Go tell An Ling that Manqi will never go to reshoot."

Just as Chen Huaijin was about to speak again, the phone was hung up. She stared at the silent phone, her stomach suddenly churning, she rushed into the bathroom, leaned over the toilet, and vomited until she almost vomited out the stomach acid.

Chen Huaijin struggled to stand up, then turned on the faucet to rinse her mouth. She looked at herself in the mirror, her face was pale and her eyes were full of fatigue.

"It's so disgusting." She muttered to herself. Even though her stomach was empty, the piercing sound still echoed in her ears, constantly tormenting her body and mind. Her stomach still churned.

Thinking that he had only two years left on his contract with Universal Pictures, Chen Huaijin felt deeply powerless.

Actors and stars, these professions may seem glamorous in the eyes of outsiders, but who knows the corruption behind them.

In this circle, only those who have very good conditions, or have a good family background, or are not ambitious and just want to have enough food and clothing, can remain innocent in this muddy water.

As for other people, those who are ambitious but have mediocre conditions and no family background to rely on, if they want to stand out in this circle, how can those good resources fall into your hands without paying some price? All the resources here have been marked with a price long ago.

Chen Huaijin thought she had gotten used to all this, but the voice just now reminded her of her past experiences, and an indescribable feeling of nausea surged into her heart.

She stayed in the bathroom for more than ten minutes before returning to the living room and collapsing weakly on the sofa. After calming down, she no longer had the heart to call An Ling, and only sent a message: "Yu Manqi does not agree to reshoot."

Then, she threw her phone on the sofa, lay down, and pulled the plush blanket next to her to wrap herself tightly. That's it, although she wanted to increase her exposure through "Meishang", if she missed this cooperation because of Yu Manqi, although she felt regretful, she could accept it.

Take your time with everything. Sometimes, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!

An Ling stared at the message sent by Chen Huaijin, and his dissatisfaction with Yu Manqi instantly reached its peak. She was just a third-tier actress. Even if Universal Pictures was promoting her, the rules of the entertainment industry were there - small success depends on promotion, big success depends on luck. It was still unknown whether she could become a first-tier or even top-tier actress, but she was already acting like a big shot. It was really ridiculous.

Although "Meishang" is not a top magazine, it is not something a small actress like her can control. As long as she is the editor-in-chief of "Meishang", Yu Manqi will never be able to appear on the cover of "Meishang" magazine again.

But An Ling also realized that the interview arranged for Weiwei had also come to nothing. Although she was unwilling, she knew how to deal with it. She stood up without hesitation and went to Li Jiawei's office to report Chen Huaijin's reply.

After hearing this, Li Jiawei had expected it in her heart, and said to An Ling: "I understand, you don't have to worry about the rest, I will take care of it."

An Ling listened to Li Jiawei's words and knew that this was the beginning of Li Jiawei's attempt to take back her control of "Meishang". Although she was unwilling, it was indeed her responsibility that things turned out this way. She said apologetically: "Ms. Jiawei, this time it was my fault for not making the arrangements properly and it was my mistake at work."

Li Jiawei smiled soothingly: "No one can do their job perfectly. Editor-in-Chief An, you were just too impatient this time."

An Ling lowered her head and admitted her impatience. If the interview with Chen Huaijin could be arranged in November, and she could decide the style of the November issue instead of the art design department, perhaps everything would be different. It can only be said that this time she made a wrong move and lost the whole game.

After An Ling left, Li Jiawei called Director Chen. As soon as Director Chen answered the phone, he immediately asked, "Jiawei, do you know Jiang Ran?"

Li Jiawei replied: "Director Zhang, who in China doesn't know Jiang Ran? She is the first female director in China to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Short Film. I like her movies very much."

Director Chen immediately smiled and said, "She filmed a movie last year, which will be released soon. She called me just now, and I told her about 'Meishang'. She said she wanted to be interviewed by 'Meishang' to increase her exposure and promote the film in advance. What do you think?"

Li Jiawei quickly responded: "Director Zhang, thank you so much. It is a great honor for us to have Director Jiang on 'Meishang'."

Director Chen smiled and said, "You're welcome. But Jiawei, can you also let the heroine of Director Jiang's movie appear in your internal publication?"

Li Jiawei readily agreed: "Of course."

Director Chen continued, "That girl's name is Han Keqing. She's a newcomer and a student who hasn't graduated from the film academy yet, but she's very intelligent. If she can develop well in this circle, she will definitely have a bright future. But now, she's a newcomer after all, so don't look down on her."

Li Jiawei said, "Director Zhang, you must be joking. Everyone who has participated in Director Jiang's films is now a very famous person."

Director Zhang said, "Okay, I'll give you Jiang Ran's phone number and you can contact her directly."
