Chapter 171: The 171st day of being popular
After this statement, the surroundings fell into a strange silence.
Yan Xiaoli: ?
Assistant Director: "..."
Staff: "..."
What? What kind of painful feeling is this?
Pain from earning over ten billion in one night and having so much money that you can't spend it?
In the shocked and puzzled gazes of everyone, Mo Yougan instantly understood Yao Bianliang's meaning.
A sense of sympathy for her pain appeared in his deep, dark eyes.
"That is indeed very painful," he looked at Yao Bianliang with a touch of compassion as if saying, "my condolences," "you've been through a lot."
Everyone: ...
Wait, wait a minute, do you both have some misunderstanding about the word "painful"?
How can this be painful!!
No words can fully express the state of mind of everyone at this moment. If it could be summarized in one or two words, it would definitely be a big "WTF."
It's their fault. They just can't comprehend the thinking of a big shot.
Silently, everyone turned around, those who were moving luggage continued to move luggage, and those who were packing started packing, leaving only Yao Bianliang and Mo Yougan standing in place.
A gentle breeze swept through, stirring up fallen leaves on the ground, drifting overhead in solitude.
In this desolate autumn wind, the crew boarded the bus and headed to the shooting location in the suburbs of K City.
Yao Bianliang pulled Mo Yougan to sit in the back row. Honestly, this was the first time she had met someone who truly understood her thoughts!
Investments always made money, and the artists he dug up always became popular... this Mr. Mo was a fellow sufferer!
After some exchange, Yao Bianliang's sorrowful mood was slightly comforted.
"Mr. Mo, you've been through a lot too," she sighed with emotion.
Mo Yougan sighed, "Yes, it's not easy for us."
The two assistants in the front row couldn't help but glance over here frequently.
Yan Xiaoli silently thought, "No wonder Sister Liang pulled Mr. Mo to sit in the corner and discuss quietly."
They might be scolded if they openly discussed such topics in the front row.
Mo Yougan's feelings were also very complicated.
He had confided his experiences to others more than once, but unfortunately, every time he complained, people thought he was showing off and even suspected he had ulterior motives.
The male star's face looked quite unpleasant. "The contract didn't mention such awful accommodations! They want me to share a room with a bunch of third and fourth-tier actors. Who do they think I am?"
Yao "Third-tier Actor" Bianliang: ...
Great, I've been subtly insulted.
After the male star finished speaking, the agent had no choice but to continue negotiating on his behalf, and there was a series of disputes between the two sides.
Yao Bianliang frowned slightly as she watched. She turned to Yan Xiaoli next to her and asked, "Who is this person?"
"He's the male lead of our drama. He's a top-tier superstar in the industry," Yan Xiaoli whispered.
The male lead?
"I see." Yao Bianliang pondered.
She didn't know much about the actor who played the male lead, but Mo Yougan casually mentioned him in their conversation, saying that he was recommended by a friend and had no acting skills, relying solely on his good looks.
Since his acting skills are poor, can his performances receive good reviews?
Therefore, Yao Bianliang readily agreed with this casting decision.
But now, not only is the male lead's acting skills lacking, but his character also seems to be problematic.
Yan Xiaoli followed behind, cautiously observing Yao Bianliang's expression. She understood that her Boss couldn't stand this person's attitude.
However, this is how the entertainment industry works. Many stars may seem polite on camera but often act high-handedly behind the scenes.
Yao Bianliang had previously been in a 24-hour live-streaming variety show and had mainly acted in short dramas. Naturally, she wouldn't have encountered such actors.
But now that she had joined a formal drama production, she would inevitably encounter this situation.
Yan Xiaoli hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to speak up, "Boss, the male lead has a lot of girlfriend fans and fanatical fans. his fandom power is very strong. It's better for us not to offend them."
Yao Bianliang glanced at the man sitting amid the crowd, who was giving orders to others, and raised an eyebrow slightly, "And why can't we offend this person?"
Yan Xiaoli nodded frantically as if pecking at rice like a chick. She said, "I know you can't stand this type of person, but there's nothing we can do about it. In the entertainment industry, there are countless stars like him who have the capital to act high-handedly. We can't act impulsively."
Yao Bianliang's current status in the industry was, at most, second or third-tier. Moreover, her fan power wasn't strong. If she were targeted by his fans, it would definitely not end well for her.
Yan Xiaoli had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, and before becoming Yao Bianliang's assistant, she had worked with several other celebrities, so she knew quite a bit about the industry.
She was worried that Yao Bianliang didn't realize the seriousness of the situation, so she added in a low voice, "I heard before that a potential A-list female star offended him during the filming process and was viciously attacked by his fans. In the end, her career plummeted, and all her resources vanished."
Yan Xiaoli's words were filled with implications. Even a potential A-list female star couldn't compete with him, let alone newly emerging artists like them.
If they were to have a conflict and it got spread around, they wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Yao Bianliang also caught on to the crucial point in Yan Xiaoli's words and her eyes brightened.
Offending him could lead to be cold?
Well, this was an unexpected opportunity that had presented itself!
