People are in Running Man, and Bai Mengyan is crying at the beginning

"Okay, Sister Ye, you go ahead."

Xiang Long's expression also became serious.

He knew that Zhang Ye would probably talk about her relationship with Bai Lu.

Sure enough, after Zhang Ye sat down, he saw Zhang Ye staring at him and asked:

"Do you like Meng Yan?"

Facing Zhang Ye's gaze, Xiang Long nodded without hiding anything:

"Yes!"

Zhang Ye sighed secretly, but she did not immediately act as if she wanted to break up the two of you. Instead, she changed the subject and asked,"How much do you like it?"

""Hmm?"

Xiang Long was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhang Ye to ask this.

After thinking for a while, he said:

"Sister Ye, if I say how much I like Teacher Bai and what I can do for her, it is not realistic and you certainly won't believe it. Therefore, I can only say that I have a very, very good impression of Teacher Bai now, and I want to be with her and become her boyfriend. As for more and further things... I haven't considered it yet."

He was speaking from the heart. After all, he and Bai Lu had only known each other for a month at most. It would be irresponsible to both of them to talk about things that were too far in the future.

Hearing this, Zhang Ye was delighted.

She was not afraid of Xiang Long being calm, but she was afraid that Xiang Long would get carried away.

It would be great if he could analyze the situation calmly at this time.

After all, she also knew that it was impossible to prevent Bai Lu from falling in love or having a boyfriend. What they, Huanyu Entertainment, wanted was just to let Bai Lu create the greatest value for the company at her golden age.

"Since you are so frank, I will be frank with you."

Zhang Ye said seriously:"What do you think of Meng Yan's current status in the circle?"

Xiang Long thought for a moment and said:

"First-tier, but not stable."

After all, Bai Lu is a rising star in the past two years. She has become famous, but compared with those real first-tier actresses, she is far behind in terms of voice and resources.

Especially resources.

You should know that real first-tier actors will at least set up their own personal studios, or simply become partners of entertainment companies.

To be able to do so means that you have been recognized by capital, can independently negotiate scripts, undertake advertising and other business resources, and sit on an equal footing with the investors, from a chess piece to a chess player.

But Bai Lu is still only a contracted artist of Huanyu Entertainment. Whether it is business activities or film and television roles, she cannot do without the support of Huanyu.

"This is the crux of the matter!"

Zhang Ye said:

"Meng Yan is only a first-tier celebrity now, but her influence and foundation are not there yet, and these require works and time to settle - do you understand what I mean?"

Xiang Long was silent for a moment, and said:"Sister Ye wants to say that Teacher Bai can't have a relationship?"

"It’s not that we can’t, but that we are not suitable!"

Zhang Ye explained:"You may not know that although the company did not say it explicitly, in terms of the allocation of company resources, Meng Yan is treated as the number one sister of the company. Other star artists have to give in to Meng Yan!"

"In this case, if the fact that Mengyan is in love with you is exposed, can you imagine what will happen?"

"First of all, fans will definitely not accept it."

"I know that you and Mengyan have a lot of CP fans now, but it is generally recognized in the industry that CP fans are the most loose among all fan groups - this can be seen from the changes in the CP fans of Mengyan's previous dramas - after the TV series is finished, these CP fans will almost die."

"The fans who support Meng Yan the most are precisely her career fans, mother fans, and even her only fans."

"Once your relationship with Mengyan is exposed, her fans will definitely quit following her, and their departure will have a huge impact on Mengyan's commercial value."

"Stars, especially those with unstable foundations like Meng Yan, have their commercial value hit. You should know what this means, right?"

Xiang Long nodded.

"Although I don't want to say this, if Meng Yan's commercial value is damaged, adhering to the principle of maximizing profits, the company will definitely give up Meng Yan decisively and support other female stars to replace her."

Zhang Ye said in a serious voice:

"You should also know how much time and effort it took Meng Yan to get from obscurity to where she is now. Do you think it is worth it if she loses all this because of falling in love with you?"

Hearing this,

Xiang Long was silent again.

If it were an ordinary person, facing Zhang Ye's words, he would probably hesitate because of this, after all, what Zhang Ye said was true.

But Xiang Long is different - he has a system!

As long as the system exists and can continue to gain popularity, Xiang Long's future is destined to be limitless!

Naturally, everything Zhang Ye said will no longer exist.

You Huanyu Entertainment don't want to promote Bai Lu?

It doesn't matter, I will promote it myself!

Moreover, Xiang Long believes that he can definitely bring Bai Lu to a higher position.

But Xiang Long couldn't tell Zhang Ye these things, so he could only remain silent.

After a moment, Xiang Long asked:

"Sister Ye, so you want me to draw a line between myself and Teacher Bai?"

"If possible, it would be better to do so."

Zhang Ye said softly:"After all, you don't want to see Meng Yan fall before she is about to realize her dream, right?"

"That……"

Xiang Long suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhang Ye:"What about Teacher Bai's opinion, have you asked?"

"Hmm?"

Zhang Ye paused.

How could she possibly ask Bai Lu about this?

What if Bai Lu was in love and wanted to be with Xiang Long at all costs?

As a woman, she naturally knew what a woman could do for love.

Xiang Long smiled slightly:

"So you didn't ask Teacher Bai for his opinion, right?"

"Of course Mengyan is too embarrassed to reject you openly!"

Zhang Ye said without thinking:"On one side is career, on the other side is love, doesn't this put her in a dilemma?"

"No!"

Xiang Long said with great certainty:"I believe that this is definitely not a dilemma for Meng Yan!"

"Although Meng Yan and I haven't confirmed our relationship yet, I can feel that she has definitely considered this issue. Since she hasn't told me, it means that she doesn't want to give up on me, and at the same time, she doesn't want to give up on her career!"

Xiang Long looked at Zhang Ye and said firmly:

"And my choice is the same as hers!"

"That's because your current career has not reached Meng Yan's level!"

Zhang Ye's voice was a little sharp:

"To put it bluntly, in your relationship, you are the one who benefits!"

Swish!

Xiang Long's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"I'm sorry."

Zhang Ye also realized that her words were too hurtful, but after a pause, she continued:"Forgive me for using some blunt words, but... this is the truth."

Xiang Long also took a breath, his eyes became deep, and he said in a deep voice:

"I know this is true, but……"

Xiang Long's voice slightly raised:

"Sister Ye, I may sound a little crazy, but you may not be able to see my future heights!"

Looking at Xiang Long's serious eyes, Zhang Ye was stunned.

After a long time, she laughed out loud:

"Xiang Long, aren't we having a serious discussion? Why are you suddenly saying something like this?"

"No, Sister Ye, I am telling you seriously."

Xiang Long looked directly into Zhang Ye's eyes, without any evasion, as if he was stating an established fact:

"From now on, I will do everything I can to fulfill all of Mengyan's wishes.——"

"She wants to be a diva, so I will write many, many songs for her;"

"She wanted to win the Best Actress award, so I wrote many scripts for her."

"Even if she wants to be a director, I can give her a lot of money!"

"I, Xiang Long, will do what I say!"

Hearing Xiang Long's decisive words,

Zhang Ye felt it was ridiculous and said angrily:

"Xiang Long, I don't want to talk to you about these useless words now, OK? I'm talking to you now!"

Xiang Long naturally knew that Zhang Ye would not believe it, and he was too lazy to explain. He spread his hands and said:

"Okay, now - aren't Mengyan and I going to take a couple photo later? Let's start with this photo."

"What to start?"

Zhang Ye was startled.

"Start to realize what I just said step by step!"

Xiang Long's eyes exuded strong confidence:

"Sister Ye, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

"What are you betting on?"

Zhang Ye asked

"I'm betting that I can be with Meng Yan, and at the same time, I can keep her commercial value from decreasing, or even increase it, and then I can achieve what I just said!"

Xiang Long smiled slightly.

"Are you kidding me?"

Zhang Ye grabbed his hair and said with a smile:"Xiang Long, who do you think you are?"

"Me?"

Xiang Long did not explain, and said seriously in a joking tone:

"Twenty years ago, when Ma Yun told his employees that he could change the world, investors thought he was crazy and employees thought he was a traditionalist.���Yes, and now——"

Xiang Long pointed at Zhang Ye and said,"The choice is yours."

"I……"

Zhang Ye wanted to say, I don't believe it at all, but for some reason, looking at Xiang Long's determined expression and the confidence in his eyes, she blurted out:

"Okay, let’s bet!"

Zhang Ye regretted his decision immediately after he said that, but it was too late to regret it, so he could only ask,"How do we bet?""

"Just bet on my popularity!"

Xiang Long said:

"I currently have 120,000 followers on Douyin. Give me two years, and I can increase that to 10 million!"

"During these two years, I will not announce my relationship with Meng Yan, but you cannot deliberately make things difficult for me."

"Two years later, if my fans reach 10 million, you can no longer stop me and Meng Yan for any reason."

"I think you can wait for two years, right?"

Ten million fans in two years?

Zhang Ye looked at Xiang Long with a strange look.

You have to know that fans in this world cannot be faked. Ten million fans are already a first-tier star! Among the male stars who have joined Douyin, there are only ten with more than ten million fans!

Xiang Long actually wants to become one of them in two years?

This is no longer just nonsense, it's simply talking in his sleep!

"Okay, it's settled!"

Zhang Ye said immediately:

"If you don't have 10 million fans in two years……"

"I left on my own initiative!"

Xiang Long said resolutely.

What a joke.

Even with the help of the system, he still doesn't have 10 million fans in two years. He might as well find a noodle to hang himself.

"It's a deal!"

Pa!

The two men's palms slammed together.

After negotiating with Xiang Long, Zhang Ye also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Xiang Long was dealt with, Zhang Ye thought that most of the work would be done.

"I'll go see Meng Yan. Why hasn't she changed her clothes in such a long time?"

Zhang Ye stood up and walked out.

As soon as she reached the corridor, she saw Bai Lu walking towards her with her head down.

"Mengyan, why are you so slow?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just... just delayed for a moment."

Bai Lu shrugged somewhat unnaturally and responded with evasive eyes.

Zhang Ye did not notice Bai Lu's abnormality and instructed:"Okay, go take a photo with Xiang Long first, and come to my office at noon, I have something to tell you."

Bai Lu glanced at Zhang Ye with a complicated expression and responded sullenly:"Okay."

Soon, after separating from Zhang Ye, Bai Lu came to Xiang Long's office

"Teacher Bai, I mean, it takes you so long to delete a photo?"

Seeing Bai Lu, Xiang Long smiled and teased:

"Tell me the truth, have you been peeking at my other handsome photos?"

Looking at Xiang Long's relaxed and carefree smile, Bai Lu's eyes suddenly turned red.
