Chapter 576: A Friendly Reminder

She had taken a liking to Empress Lu not only because of her brilliant script, but also because she knew in her heart that she couldn’t compete with someone who had backing.

The people in the world liked Beauty Yu more than Empress Lu, and their status was higher.

This was a likable character. Almost as soon as she heard about the Chu and Han dynasty drama, the first thought in her mind was that the female lead would definitely be Beauty Yu.

Yun Xiangxiang could only secretly pray that this “female lead” was a good one. Otherwise, such a good drama would be ruined.

“I didn’t hear Brother Wei mention the rookie selection this year.” Yun Xiangxiang looked at Xue Yu.

“This year, Old He asked me to go in his place,” Xue Yu said coldly. “He said that to prevent me from claiming that he is biased, you and I will take turns to replace him for a year.”

If it was someone else, Xue Yu would definitely curse.

Last year, He Wei asked Yun Xiangxiang to go because he wanted to raise Yun Xiangxiang’s status. This year, he asked him to go because he wanted him to be cannon fodder.

Since such a selfish thing was happening in the company, if Yun Xiangxiang went, it would be fine if the other party was really capable. Yun Xiangxiang would just turn a blind eye to it. If the other party was not capable, Yun Xiangxiang would probably kill her mercilessly.

Wasn’t this offending someone? He Wei wouldn’t let Yun Xiangxiang go over such a difficult matter. He could only be the bad guy.

Yun Xiangxiang was also a smart person. How could she not think of it? She looked at Xue Yu worriedly. “Senior Brother…”

“Don’t worry, I know how to handle it. Moreover, I’m not the only one in charge of the preliminaries. Even if I gave her a low score, she wouldn’t be able to blame me if she doesn’t pa.s.s.” Xue Yu smiled at Yun Xiangxiang and stood up. “Let’s go and continue with the dubbing. On the last day, we’ll complete the work of this production.”

Although Xue Yu didn’t look like he was very popular, he had been in the acting circle for 20 years. Other than that incident, he didn’t cause any big trouble. This was not only because of He Wei, but also because he knew how to survive in this circle.

“You have to be careful too.” Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t help but remind Liang Xinrong.

The director had spent so much effort to push her daughter in. It was obvious that she wanted to support her daughter. If Empress Lu was played well, it would be easy to suppress Beauty Yu. If the other party was a little more narrow-minded, then even if Liang Xinrong chose Empress Lu, it would still cause trouble.

“I have to face what I have to face sooner or later. I’m already very tactful. If she can’t support herself up to the wall, she can’t blame me.” Liang Xinrong was not afraid.

Yun Xiangxiang understood her desperate gamble. As long as this TV series became popular, as long as she had a higher value, Wen Lan would definitely protect her. Huan Yu Century Entertainment was, after all, surnamed He.

Usually, He Zhen didn’t care about some things. It was considered giving face to the higher-ups. He also wanted to see if these gra.s.sroots artists could stand out despite their circ.u.mstances. He Zhen didn’t care at all about suppressing unfair treatment.

People who had experienced the baptism of society knew that survival was so difficult. To stand out, one had to rely on ability.

As long as it didn’t touch the company’s bottom line, whether it was extortion or coercion, it was a phenomenon that existed everywhere.

However, once there was value and ability, the company would naturally give more benefits and protection. Wen Lan now urgently needed someone to stand out.

“It’s not just that. You have to know that both you and Lu Huanong are in Wen Lan’s hands. How come none of the newbies in Wen Lan’s hands have risen to the top in the past few years? You’re so smart, you can definitely guess it.” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t deliberately slander Lu Huanong.

In fact, if it were not for Liang Xinrong’s words that day that made her admire Liang Xinrong, Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t have reminded Liang Xinrong.

There were all kinds of people in the entertainment industry. Yun Xiangxiang actually wanted to see how far Liang Xinrong could go. After experiencing prosperity and satisfying her vanity, would she still be able to remain rational or be swallowed by a greater vanity?

Liang Xinrong might be smart, but she was still callow. If she was caught off-guard by Lu Huanong, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Thank you, Sister Xiang.” Liang Xinrong immediately reacted and felt a chill down her spine.

Although she mentioned Lu Huanong that day, she just wanted to open a topic with Yun Xiangxiang. She didn’t want to talk about Lu Huanong’s right and wrong. She followed Wen Lan last year, and now, she just happened to have a new opportunity. With her own ability, she managed to get into “Flying Sky” even if she didn’t have much contact with Lu Huanong.

In the rare few times they met, Lu Huanong was very polite to her, like a big sister who understood her well.

She was naturally very guarded. She didn’t trust Lu Huanong, but she was not very guarded against Lu Huanong.

She was completely focused on how to climb up the ranks. She really didn’t carefully consider why the other rookies around Wen Lan, who were one or two years earlier than her, were not even a little bit late, as if they were idlers in Paris.

Wen Lan had also arranged for them to write a lot of scripts.

After composing all the scripts for “Flying Sky,” Yun Xiangxiang talked to He Wei. Throughout March, she only had one brand event for SL.

It was very simple. She had to go to Beijing’s largest shopping mall and stand on the platform herself. That was how Q’s event was. It would only take one or two days of martial arts.

Yun Xiangxiang only needed to attend cla.s.ses and study the script for “Soar to the Sky!”

Today, Yu You asked her son to stay at Yun Xiangxiang’s place. Yun Xiangxiang returned home early and asked Song Qian before Yu You arrived, “Qian Qian, how did Yu You’s husband die?”

Yun Xiangxiang thought that it was something important. Yun Xiangxiang still wanted to know, so that her unintentional words wouldn’t trigger the scar in her heart.

“The laboratory was destroyed and there was no complete corpse.” Song Qian was very serious when she mentioned this matter.

Yu You’s husband was an outstanding figure in the Song family. He studied chemistry and was good at pharmaceutical research. He was the type of person who would hide in the laboratory all year round. The reason for the explosion in the laboratory was still a mystery.

It was said that it was a plot, but there was no trace of it. It was also illogical to say that Yu You’s husband accidentally caused the explosion in the laboratory because the explosion was too powerful and there was no strong evidence left. Yu You insisted that the cause of her husband’s death was unknown.

All these years, she had been investigating the truth. Song Mian also supported her. According to the Song family’s rules, they would give a sum of money to the mother and son every year.

“Then if she comes to me, will it hinder her from investigating the truth?” Yun Xiangxiang thought about it and hesitated.

“This matter is very complicated. If Young Master can’t find out, how much can she do? It’s just that Young Master and she haven’t given up yet. It’s also for this reason that Young Master sent her to replace Ai Li for a period.” Song Qian shook her head.

Yu You was the most suitable. Yu You had the patience and experience to take care of children, so she would do better than Ai Li in this aspect. Ai Li thought about Yun Lin for Yun Xiangxiang. She took care of Yun Lin for a longer period of time than she did with Yun Xiangxiang. Only by taking care of Yun Lin would Yun Xiangxiang be able to feel at ease.
