Chapter 536 A Hot Potato
Chapter 536 A Hot Potato
"Let me add one more thing: it's best not to take on these kinds of jobs, unless they can be completed in one day. Of course, this doesn't apply after filming for this show is finished."
Sheng Hanyu added.
He still had some opinions about Gu Lin's work arrangements, but since he wasn't Gu Lin's boss, he couldn't name names and say who could take the job and who couldn't.
Since Gu Lin is now seeking their opinions, he must have already figured out which ones are reliable.
In fact, Sheng Hanyu believes that Xiao Yueyin should not have accepted any of the endorsements that were dropped, not to mention the film and television roles she participated in.
The reason is obvious: a client who can hire Xiao Yueyin as their spokesperson clearly values data more than actual strength.
First of all, let's not even talk about how Xiao Yueyin became famous. To this day, he doesn't have a single truly representative work. Even if he were given a chance, he still wouldn't be able to make it.
This isn't something that can be solved by fans showering them with compliments.
Secondly, it was one thing in the first two years, but in the last two years, who doesn't know that data can be fabricated?
Any reputable company's marketing department would know about this.
Data dehydration is easy now, and Sheng Hanyu doesn't believe that Xiao Yueyin's data after dehydration is the same as it is now.
In other words, they chose to continue piling on false data. Given this kind of company...
If Xiao Yueyin doesn't collapse, they will collapse sooner or later.
So this isn't a resource they've taken on, it's a hot potato.
Of course, this isn't to generalize; there are definitely some relatively reliable clients. However, the martial arts drama is still in training, and filming will continue...
Sheng Hanyu knew how strict Ren Junxiao was. During training, actors might be allowed to rest or take short leave, but once filming started, he wanted them to wear their costumes all the time and speak through the persona of the characters they were playing.
Modern films are fine, especially martial arts films. Playing a character not too different from one's own personality is also fine, especially with such a stark contrast...
It wasn't that Sheng Hanyu didn't trust Gu Lin, but rather that he felt that once a decision was made, it should be carried out.
"I understand, I will seriously consider it."
Gu Lin understood what Sheng Hanyu meant. Even though he wasn't particularly good at reading people, he could tell that the other party was seriously considering his feelings.
Although he would still need to find a new contract if he didn't renew his contract with the company, the fact that they were willing to let him use their name was already a great act of kindness.
Just as Yin Junqi said...
"Alright, we'll talk about the rest later. If there's nothing else, you should get some rest. We'll head back now."
So Gu Lin saw them off and then immediately contacted his agent.
"Do you think this will work out? By the way, why didn't you say you've got your eye on him too?"
Ye Sanqing took a few steps and then spoke to Sheng Hanyu.
"It would be strange if they couldn't succeed. Their company may be eager for quick results, but it's not like they would turn a blind eye to the company behind us."
In fact, the eagerness to achieve success was a bit strange, because Gu Lin was already a top star.
The point is, there's absolutely no need to act like someone who's been oppressed for so long and has finally managed to turn things around. If their situation were like Chen Sui's, then there would be a reason to act like this.
If we take a conspiracy theory approach, we could even suspect that some disgruntled individuals infiltrated the fan group to cause trouble, with the aim of dragging Gu Lin down along with their own disgraced artist.
"As for whether I like him or not... that's not the issue. It's about whether he's a better fit for your family."
Sheng Hanyu said again.
He knew that Gu Lin was capable and seemed to be worthy of his status, but as he said before, their development paths were different.
Therefore, even if Gu Lin were to switch contracts, Chang Le Wei Yang would be a better fit.
He didn't suggest signing directly, nor did he advise Ye Sanqing to sign directly, which actually meant he was waiting to see what would happen.
They've already given him a hand; Gu Lin needs to be able to extricate himself from this quagmire before we can talk about what comes next.
This is different from other people's situations; the main thing is determination.
Sheng Hanyu has always believed that helping others should be done judiciously, not by blindly helping from beginning to end, but by providing the most appropriate level of help at the most suitable time.
"Indeed, I will talk to my second brother about what happened today, so we can be prepared if anything happens later. But I believe our family is different from theirs; we definitely have contingency plans in place..."
Ye Sanqing took out his phone and said.
While it's not necessary to prepare for everyone in the entertainment industry, at least for artists with some fame, there should be preparations for what to do if their career collapses, or what to do if they have the opportunity to sign a contract.
Besides, Xingxuan's plan has been in place for so long, there must have been a contingency plan for the collateral damage caused by their downfall.
Well, although it's only about a month, Ye Sanqing thinks that's enough time.
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
Sheng Hanyu accompanied Ye Sanqing to her room door, then said goodbye and turned back.
Just as Ye Sanqing entered the room, a message came in. When she looked at it, she was surprised to find that it wasn't Ye Jin'er's reply, but Lu Wangshen asking if it would be convenient for her to have a voice call.
It seems he couldn't wait any longer.
"speak."
Ye Sanqing dialed the number and said just that one word.
"Hey, it's been so long since we last contacted each other, and you're still so cold to me."
Lu Wangshen exclaimed dramatically on the other end of the line.
"Don't keep making me repeat those four words, 'Speak plainly'..."
Ye Sanqing found a comfortable position to sit down and started petting the cat.
Bringing a cat along is definitely a good thing!
"Alright, alright, I'll just do my usual thing."
It seemed that Lu Wangshen only needed a flamboyant opening, and he immediately got to the point.
What's your take on today's public opinion?
"That's quite amusing, but what are you trying to say?"
Clearly, Ye Sanqing's question wasn't about what he wanted to say when he called, but rather what he wanted to say by making this fuss.
"It's to show my friendliness to you all. See, my appearance here has relieved a lot of the pressure of doing data, hasn't it?"
"..."
Ye Sanqing simply remained silent, waiting for him to finish speaking before responding.
"Speaking of which, I also donated money. Can I at least get a word of thanks, even just verbal thanks?"
"...You want to oppose Ye Wanyin yourself, and you even want to use Nangong Wang's name. What does that have to do with me?"
Ye Sanqing sneered. Lu Wangshen really knew how to take credit.
She had seen his donation, of course, but it was obvious at a glance that he wasn't doing it to support any charity.
"I haven't been at odds with her, as you probably already know. Our relationship has been quite harmonious lately."
He specifically emphasized the words "quite harmonious".
"Then should I praise you? Lu Wangshen, I misjudged you. I thought you were someone who didn't need to be praised."
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
