Whether in the previous life or this life, Su Lingxi knew one thing very well: it is best for artists not to be too involved with politicians.

Not to mention the examples from the previous life, there are countless unfortunate lessons before us.

A certain actress finally got together with a third-generation rich young man as his lover, but before she could enjoy a few more years of wealth, his family fell into poverty, and as a result, the actress's career was also "ruined". Her current situation is no different from being banned.

For example, a few years ago, a very powerful actress had to borrow some political power through special means in order to resolve a troublesome private matter. Her agent used this as a handle to blackmail her for five years. In the end, the two of them ended up in a fight to the death. Not only was the recording exposed, but her popularity among the public was also completely ruined.

Therefore, in Su Lingxi's mind, everything related to politics is extremely dangerous, whether it is people or things.

When she first became friends with Tang Wanhua, she was not attracted by her red background, but by the film resources she had at the time - at that time, she could only play small supporting roles in TV dramas, and there were basically no reliable film scripts handed to her.

However, they didn't expect that after working together on a movie, the two of them would become friends and become one of the few close friends in the circle.

And now, she seemed to have invisibly offended a big shot who was even more powerful than the Tang family...

Su Lingxi looked at the neon street scenes passing by outside the window and let out a long sigh.

She now seems to be a successful person in the circle, who can get whatever she wants. Actresses of the same age can only pick up movie scripts that she doesn't want, but this does not mean that she has no self-awareness.

In the entertainment industry, she is still a well-known figure, but all the entertainment industries in China combined only account for a very small part of the national economy.

In front of those bigwigs in the imperial capital, she might at most be considered just a "gift" - someone who was not worthy of having the initiative or any other ideas.

Having offended someone, Su Lingxi would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous, but she actually felt more depressed and confused.

Because she racked her brains for the entire night but couldn't figure out when she had offended such a powerful figure.

Throughout the past year, apart from filming, she has been flying around to shoot magazines, commercials, promotional events, film festivals and premieres. She has not gone out to play anywhere nor done anything immoral. She has just been doing her job peacefully and has very little time to rest.

In this case, it would be more reasonable to say that someone disliked her and wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble for her rather than saying that she offended anyone.

After working diligently for half a year, a bunch of things happened just after my birthday. One moment I was caught up in a love triangle, and the next moment a rumored big shot deliberately made things difficult for me. Who wouldn't be angry?

Anyway, Su Lingxi himself couldn't help being angry.

"I swear, I had never heard of Chen Chi before tonight. How could I have offended him?"

"Could there be... some misunderstanding?" Yang Qian frowned and thought, "Also, what do you think of Director Tang's suggestion just now?"

Tang Wanhua does not have a high status in the Tang family, and it is impossible for her to persuade Mr. Tang to come out in person for this matter.

Therefore, at the dinner table just now, Tang Wanhua mentioned a name she had not seen for a long time: Fu Guoming, general manager of Huaying Group.

"I don't know, but I think we can't expect someone we don't know to help me solve the problem." Su Lingxi's beautiful eyebrows tightened and he exhaled softly, "This is too unrealistic, and I don't want to get involved in politics."

Huaying Group is a state-controlled enterprise. From the chairman to the general manager, most of them are involved with the politicians above - especially the general manager Fu Guoming. The meaning of Tang Wanhua's words is very clear. The status of this general manager Fu in the Beijing circle cannot be underestimated. He has a powerful politician representative behind him.

Such a person could certainly help her solve temporary problems, but it would definitely cost her some price.

Su Lingxi wasn't sure whether he could afford the price, so he could only choose to stay away.

"Things haven't gotten to the point where they can't be reversed. I'll think of another way."

She made the final conclusion and Yang Qian had to give up.

After all, with the increase in popularity and box office performance, Su Lingxi has become the absolute ruler in this team, possessing the power to have the final say.

Yang Qian is still her big agent, but when there are differences of opinion, she can only try to discuss with her and can no longer force her to do anything.

However, there are some things that Yang Qian has no right to convince Su Lingxi about, but Ruan Tang does.

At the beginning of September, the global box office of "Freedom Road" exceeded 9 billion US dollars. The internal tax audit progress of Hengsheng Pictures was slow, and many rumors were heard from the outside world.

The day after the rumor spread, Su Lingxi took the initiative to contact Fu Guoming and had a meal with him.

Fu Guoming's attitude towards her was the same as before. Although his temples were gray, he was still energetic. The few of them talked about the film industry in the last century and the depression of the American film industry in the 50s, and finally got the topic back on track.

"Xiao Su, I always thought you were a good kid with a clear mind and sharp eyes." Fu Guoming said with a smile, his eyes full of scrutiny, "It's true that dollars are easy to make, but as a human being, the most important thing is not to forget your roots."

“No matter where you are or how far you go, you have to remember where your roots are, right?”

"Worshiping foreign things is not a nice word."

His words were meaningful. Su Lingxi kept smiling, but she was already on high alert in her heart.

Not forgetting her roots refers to her too frequent dealings with overseas capital.

We cannot worship foreign things. What she means is that as a popular actress in her 20s in China, she should also make some contributions to the Chinese film market.

"Mr. Fu, I have never forgotten where I grew up, and I have always hoped that the Chinese film industry can be revitalized." She pursed her lips, revealing a somewhat fearful expression, "It's just... a few things that happened recently made me feel very uneasy. I want to ask you boldly, is there any misunderstanding that I don't know about?"

"Misunderstanding? Maybe." Fu Guoming put down his wine glass and looked at her meaningfully. "As long as you can remember what I just said and put it into practice, then nothing will happen."

With just a few words, he summed up the situation.

There was silence in the room.

Su Lingxi still maintained a smiling and listening attitude.

Such polite words from important people must be understood in a roundabout way.
