Inside the door, Zhang Ling and Lin Siji chatted happily.

Zhang Ling complimented Lin Siji for his comprehensive development in film, drama and series, and he is indeed a hero among the younger generation.Lin Siji smiled and exaggerated Ling Ling's superb leadership skills, and Jin Lai was thriving under her leadership.

The atmosphere between the two is harmonious, but under the peaceful surface they each have their own ulterior motives.

The conversation turned around, and Zhang Ling finally turned the topic back on track. She asked knowingly: "So what is the purpose of Director Lin's visit this time?"

Lin Siji put aside her direct attack with four or two slaps: "It's not the purpose, I just want to discuss some matters with you."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"First of all, it is related to the movie "Double-Faced Life" with your company's artistes." Lin Siji smiled calmly, "With regard to the recent online controversies surrounding the hero Yang Yan, how does Jin Laifang plan to publicize. "

Zhang Ling also laughed: "Director Lin is here to hold you accountable. Our artists have brought you negative influence on your film. I would like to apologize to you on behalf of Yang Yan. If you have any requests, I can also let him speak to your face..."

"Mr. Zhang seems to have made a mistake." Lin Siji interrupted, "I am indeed here to investigate the responsibility, but it is not to pursue Yang Yan's responsibility, but to hold your company accountable."

Zhang Ling's face changed slightly, and then she smirked and said, "Director Lin, don't be joking like that, Jin Lai has always regarded you as an important collaborator, how could he neglect you?"

Zhang Ling smiled hypocritically, but her words were rarely sincere.

Lin Siji is indeed someone that Jin Lai values ​​and decides not to offend. After all, Lin Siji has a great skill, he wrote a script and acted in a popular one, and all the companies in the entertainment circle racked their brains to get their own artists into Lin Siji's crew. Dare to offend him.

Jin Lai is no exception, so when Lin Siji asked Jin Lai to replace a certain manager with a TV series of resources more than a year ago, Jin Lai chose to abandon the senior staff without hesitation. It can be said that he did his best. Showing affection to Lin Siji.

Their efforts are also effective. This year when Lin Siji made a high-profile announcement of his comeback to shoot a movie, the resources of the starring role were also given to Jinlai Company.

Although Lin Siji's designated actor was different from the artist Jin Lai originally planned to send, but facing such a pie from heaven, Jin Lai still sent Yang Yan into the crew without much hesitation.

Against this background, even though there were rumors that Lin Siji was going to start a company, he would become one of Jinlai's competitors and join the market melee in the entertainment circle to share the cake.Jin Lai still did not dare to act rashly, for fear of offending this great god rashly.

Zhang Ling has been in the circle for many years, and she can be considered a genius. Seeing that Lin Siji's approach was not friendly, she wanted to go around the circle to resolve the conflict.And Lin Siji knew her thoughts clearly, so naturally he wouldn't let her fool the problem.

Lin Siji said noncommittally: "When I was cooperating with your company's artists, rumors spread on the Internet many times, but your company's public relations handling disappointed me more and more. The delayed clarification statement more or less damaged "Double Considering Jin Lai's original ability and the reputation and audience popularity of "Double-Faced Life", I have to suspect that your company intends to target the crew of "Double-Faced Life" with such substandard public relations handling."

Zhang Ling had no choice but to explain: "Director Lin misunderstood you, and we didn't mean to belittle you. It's just that the recent public opinion situation is too complicated, and the public relations department has to spend more time processing information. Slow down."

Lin Siji laughed when he heard the words: "So it's a matter of Jinlai's public relations department's ability."

He paused, then regretted: "I still have some ideas of cooperation with several artists under Jinlai, but the company's public relations ability is really daunting."

Zhang Ling was startled, and only then did she realize that Lin Siji had led her into the pit step by step.

The young director in front of him smiled gently, but moved away unknowingly, blocking the circle around the road calmly.

Under his trap, Zhang Ling either admitted that Jin Lai intended to target Lin Siji's films, or certified that her professional level was low and she was not a qualified partner.

Neither option is available.

Zhang Ling made a decisive decision. She smiled at Lin Siji and said, "Director Lin, wait a moment."

Then Zhang Ling quickly took out her mobile phone, dialed a certain number, and scolded over there with a stern voice: "Why haven't you finished the clarification I asked you to send?"

"……How much time is needed?"

"Send it before twelve o'clock, or you won't be able to use it for work tomorrow!"

In front of Lin Siji, she reprimanded the people in the public relations department with half truth and half falsehood, which gave Lin Siji enough face.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ling said categorically to Lin Siji: "The PR draft must be in place before noon, and we will do our best to keep public opinion from affecting "Double-Faced Life."

She acted sincerely, and Lin Siji didn't try to expose it: "That's the best."

He looked at Zhang Ling, and suddenly turned to another topic: "Speaking of which, Yang Yan, an artist under your company, is about to expire at the beginning of next year."

Although the content of the contract is confidential, it is not difficult to find out with Lin Siji's methods.

But Zhang Ling still decided to be sloppy: "What does Director Lin mean by that?"

However, Lin Siji said bluntly: "Mr. Zhang should have heard that I plan to start a company. During the filming process, I had a great time cooperating with your company's artists, so I wanted to sign him, so I wanted to know if Jin Lai had any Renew his plans."

Zhang Ling smirked: "It's only half a year before Yang Yan's contract expires, so it's too early for Director Lin to ask the question right now."

Lin Siji said: "It's not too early. As far as I know, Jinlai has always had a tradition of giving artists whose contracts are about to expire a long time to 'consider' their holidays. There is a gap period. Why don't we take this opportunity to negotiate."

Lin Siji picked out Jin Lai's dirty trick of using Xue Zang to coerce expired artists into signing contracts.

Zhang Ling cursed a few times in her heart, but her face remained calm: "Unfortunately, Director Lin, I also like this kid Yang Yan. I think he has a bright future, so I plan to renew the contract with him."

Lin Siji laughed: "Do you agree that the way for an artist to have a future is to hide him in the snow?"

Zhang Ling smirked: "Director Lin's words are ugly. The so-called gap period is just to let the artists rest and think calmly, so that they can make reasonable plans for the future and better display their own value."

Lin Siji couldn't stop laughing mockingly: "Following me to make movies has a better future than making bad movies every time."

Zhang Ling: ...

Her expression froze, but Lin Siji continued to sarcastically: "If Mr. Zhang cherishes his talent, why not let him go to Bole, so as not to delay the artist's career."

Lin Siji's words were sharp, and even a fool could catch a glimpse of the ridicule and sarcasm.

Zhang Ling was furious with Lin Siji's anger. She had long heard that this talented director did not play cards according to common sense, but she never expected that Lin Siji would not give him any face.The provocation was put on the bright side, but Zhang Ling couldn't refute it due to his status as a famous director and the family background behind him, so he could only forcefully divert the topic to another aspect: "In any case, it depends on the artist whether to renew the contract or not." Come up with your own ideas, Director Lin, no matter how well you plan here, if the artists don't like it, they can't force it."

What Zhang Ling said has connotations.

Lin Siji's sexuality is not a secret in the circle, but Yang Yan's abnormality seven years ago has already aroused her suspicion and attention.She linked Yang Yan's behavior with Lin Siji's withdrawal from the country, and added Lin Siji's mother Li Qijie's inexplicable dislike for Yang Yan.

Zhang Ling probably guessed what the relationship between Lin Siji and Yang Yan used to be, so she had the confidence to tell Lin Siji to let Yang Yan choose.

After all, in her opinion, not to mention the emotional conflict between Yang Yan and Lin Siji, but just to mention the fact that Li Qijie is watching from behind, it is impossible for Yang Yan to sign with Lin Siji's company.

If it is said that Jin Lai just squeezed the artists and put them in a short period of time, Li Qijie is fully capable of banning Yang Yan.

And she had good reason.

Zhang Ling thought that Lin Siji also knew that it was impossible for Yang Yan to go with him, that would be self-defeating.

Who would have thought that Lin Siji laughed when he heard her words, nodded generously and said: "Then call Yang Yan in and let him decide for himself."

Zhang Ling was stunned, she never expected Lin Siji to react like this, she could only watch Lin Siji walk towards the door, opened the door and said with a smile: "Yang Yan, come in."

She saw Yang Yan come in without knowing why, and when she met Lin Siji's gaze, she deliberately turned away.

Zhang Ling made up her mind.

At least from now on, there are still conflicts between Yang Yan and Lin Siji.

Then Jinlai had a chance to keep him.

Confirming this, Zhang Ling preemptively said, "Yang Yan, I asked you to come in to discuss the contract."

Yang Yan turned to her: "It's not half a year."

"Yes." Zhang Ling said, pointing at Lin Siji, "But now Director Lin hopes to sign you in half a year. I can't make the decision, so I will let you decide for yourself."

It matches what Wu Zai said.

Yang Yan couldn't help but glance at Lin Siji.

Lin Siji smiled.

Yang Yan quickly retracted his gaze.

Zhang Ling said again: "Yang Yan, after you starred in "Double-Faced Life", your fame and status will definitely rise to a higher level. At this time, you need a professional team company to help you plan your future path and deal with various issues. Matter. As someone who watched you grow up in the industry, I have to remind you a few words. As a director, director Lin is indeed very good, but a good director may not be able to lead a good company. You follow him , may be able to guarantee short-term popularity, but from a long-term perspective, it is not a very good choice to sign a company that lacks stable funding sources, network resources and background... Director Lin, don't be angry, I just To be honest, from the perspective of safety and risk, staying in Jinlai is more reliable than taking risks with you."

With Zhang Ling's words, Lin Siji was trampled on both openly and secretly.

The risks she mentioned are real.Once Lin Siji founded a company, the big companies that had shown favor to him would withdraw their olive branch and regard him as a competitor.In the xenophobic entertainment industry capital, no company will allow a new force to rise under their noses and compete with them for the already limited profit cake.

After she finished speaking, Yang Yan hadn't spoken yet, Lin Siji smiled first, and admitted: "Indeed."

Zhang Ling looked sideways at his frankness, but continued to add while the iron was hot: "And Yang Yan, Jinlai has no reason to raise stars for others. If you choose not to renew your contract, it will be difficult for us to give you resources in the next six months. On the contrary, if you choose to renew your contract, Jinlai will guarantee your exposure and follow-up resources... As a big company, Jinlai has accumulated solid strength over the years, and will not make too harsh demands on you, or put the fate of the company's survival on the line. press on you to give you a lot of pressure."

Yang Yan raised his eyes suddenly: "You mean Lin Si...the fate of Director Lin's company is on my shoulders?"

Zhang Ling said: "If you go to his company, then you are the only card in his hand, and your career can only live and die with his company."

Yang Yan lowered his eyes again, and nodded thoughtfully.

Zhang Ling was secretly happy, and estimated that Yang Yan should choose this matter.

Although Lin Siji's relaxed expression made her a little uneasy.

She waited patiently for half a minute, and she said kindly, "We won't force you to make a choice now, you go back and think about it, and you can give the answer after you think it through."

"Don't think about it." Unexpectedly, Yang Yan said.

He quickly glanced at Lin Siji, then immediately looked away,

"I'm not renewing."
