Compared to the power that the Lu Corporation had amassed over the years, it was a world of difference. She wanted to continue working in Shanghai. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. The help that this company could provide her was really too little.
Moreover, Young Master Lu had promised her that as long as she did this thing well, she might even be able to rise like a phoenix!
She could almost see herself living the life of a rich wife. She had always wanted to marry into a rich family, and the Lu family was one of her goals.
It was just offending a small company. Perhaps after this, she could simply leave the industry.
To her, this was a rare opportunity and she had to grasp it tightly!
So, no matter what these people said, she would not start work! As for the compensation, with Young Master Lu around, what was she afraid of? It was just a small sum of money!
Although the Lu Corporation had a scandal recently, even after suffering a loss, a rich person would still be better off than an ordinary person. She just wanted to enter upper-class society quickly. No one would look down on her then.
âI advise you not to waste your breath. Once the time is up, I will leave by myself. Why donâtâ¦â
She glanced disdainfully at the supporting cast who had already changed into their clothes. âYou guys are shooting first? Ha, but I think youâll laugh your heads off if you launch it, right? With your acting skills, you wonât be able to catch up with me for the rest of your life!â
A girl wearing a bun in the middle said angrily, âWhat are you talking about?! Youâre the one whoâs unwilling to start work now, not us! Youâre willing to sell your reputation for some benefit. Are you willing to sell your soul for more money?â
As she spoke, she became increasingly angry. The one who made all sorts of requests was Shu Shengzi, and the one who made sarcastic remarks was also this person.?âOn what basis!?â?she thought.
âWho do you think you are? Youâre in the same industry. Do you think I havenât heard shameful things about you? You failed to seduce someone. And you almost got banned!â
She seemed to want to attack again, but her companion grabbed her in time.
âDonât be angry, donât be angry. If you hit her, youâll have to pay her medical fees! This is not worth it!â
âThatâs right! Donât suffer a double loss. Our salary this time is so little. If something goes wrong and sheâs hospitalized, wonât that make things worse?â
â¦
The words of the girl with the bun pierced Shu Shengziâs heart. This matter was a dark history that she desperately wanted to bury.
Back then, in order to become a rich manâs wife, she impulsively got a rich young master drunk. Just as she was about to do the deed, that young master woke up next to her and threw her out of the hotel.
This matter happened to be captured by the paparazzi who were hiding in the dark. The angry young master from the wealthy family intercepted Shu Shengziâs sources of revenue, almost forcing her to leave the industry.
Now that her popularity had finally risen a little, she did not expect to be exposed by an actor in a supporting role!
âI think youâre just jealous of me! Youâre just jealous of me! Thatâs right, no matter what, my status is a hundred times higher than a small-time actor like you! Even with that incident, I can still be a female protagonist, and youâre nothing!â
Shu Shengzi sneered and said, âIâm sure that people like you wonât be able to afford an apartment even if you work as a walk-on for the rest of your life, right? Do you want me to introduce you to a few rich businessmen?! You look down on me, but the reality is, I look down on you!â
Her words infuriated the other supporting actors.
As if she did not notice the tense atmosphere at all, Shu Shengzi said, âA low-class person is a low-class person. After this matter is over, Iâll be a rich manâs wife! If you have the ability, donât stop her! My face is very exquisite. It will cost you hundreds of thousands every time you smash it!â
All the crew that were present were enraged now.
âWe are all humans. What right do you have to classify us? Arenât we all doing our jobs?â
Wu Yong said with a black face, âThis is not a place for you to behave atrociously! Donât you think youâve gone too far?â
âToo far?â
Shu Shengzi sneered. âDo you think Iâm willing to stay with you people? Youâre lowering my net worth! If I werenât satisfied with your fee, I wouldnât have agreed to do this!â
It was the first time that Wu Yong met an artiste with such a bad personality. It was not that no actor had been dissatisfied with them in the past, but words like these were said secretly. To say them out loud like this, the person either had no EQ or was brainless.
Obviously, Shu Shengzi was both.
She did not understand the world of the upper class. Even ordinary families would not fancy a person like her, let alone wealthy families.
âSince youâve agreed, Iâll have to trouble you to fulfill your promise. At least donât make things too ugly!â
Shu Shengzi said disdainfully, âYouâre just a small supervisor. What right do you have to order me around?!â
âWhat right? Because youâve already signed a contract!â
Chu Jinyu walked in in her high heels and said coldly.
Shu Shengzi looked in the direction of the voice. When she saw that face, jealousy welled up in her heart.?âWhy is there someone more beautiful than me?!â?she thought.
She said in an unpleasant tone, âAnd who are you? Donât you know that idlers are prohibited here?â
Seeing this, Wu Yong stepped forward and said respectfully, âBoss.â
âBoss?â
No wonder Shu Shengzi found this person familiar. At first, she thought that she was a celebrity.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, she still retorted, âFrom your tone, I thought I signed a deed to sell myself! Iâm in a bad mood now. If you can make me happy, perhaps Iâll be kind and start work.â
If Chu Jinyu still could not tell that this person was messing with them, then her brain would have been wasted.
The most important thing now was to get to work, but looking at the other party, she probably would not budge.?âWhat should I do?â
She racked her brains for a solution.
When Lu Ming, who was outside, saw this, he took out his phone and made a call. âIs it Ms. Zhu? Help me contact the actor who played Hermione in âHarry PotterââEmma Stone.â
âMs. Emma? Okay, please wait a moment.â
After a while, a string of numbers was sent to his phone. This was indeed a top management company. They were efficient.
Lu Ming quickly dialed a number. âHello, I am the boss of Star Creation. Are you Ms. Emma Stone?â
When Emma, who was filming overseas, heard this self-introduction, she revealed a surprised expression. She did not expect that the boss of a top management company would call her personally one day!
Feeling flattered, she said, âHello, I am. Is there anything I can help you with?â
If Star Creation really took a fancy to her, she would definitely reach a higher position! And her path to stardom would be smoother!
