"You know about it?"
Su Nianhua's voice echoed in the car. He frowned and spoke into the phone. His tone was heavy. "Do you also think I should take on this show?"
On the other end of the phone, Zeng Rou quickly explained, "That's not what I meant."
"…"
"I have never interfered with your work in the past few years. You can do whatever you like and want to do. If you really don't like acting, we can tell Brother Lei clearly. Or if you want to take a break for a while, I can tell him."
The voice on the phone was very gentle and even a little careful.
Zeng Rou's tolerance and understanding had been his greatest comfort in the past few years.
"Hubby, are you listening?"
"Yes." His voice was hoarse. "I'm listening."
"Drive slowly then. We'll talk when you come back."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Su Nianhua held the steering wheel and stared at the road for a while. He had done too little for this family all these years. Perhaps it was time to change.
After Ye Huanyan returned to the studio, Gu Chi handed her Guan Nai's information.
"I've contacted Pleasure. They said that President Ling has always been in contact with Guan Nai alone. Guan Nai doesn't have an agent, so I'm afraid we'll have to go through President Ling of Pleasure to contact her."
Ye Huanyan closed Guan Nai's documents and looked like she had expected it. "Got it. Arrange it and ask if President Ling has time to meet me. I want to talk to them about Guan Nai."
Gu Chi nodded. Ye Huanyan pondered for a few seconds and stopped in her tracks. She turned around and said, "Also, check the secret shareholders of Pleasure."
Five years ago, when she was working at Pleasure and Pleasure, she had always had some doubts about the existence of Guan Nai. Before she entered the company, Guan Nai was already an A-list celebrity in the company, but her whereabouts were often uncertain, so her reputation in the industry was not very good. Many people said that she was acting like a big shot.
Her first formal contact with Guan Nai was at the Happy Tourism Festival that year. At that time, Guan Nai was the only one in the company who could compete with Sheng Enran, but she was very cold and disdained things like fighting for the position. Later, at the annual meeting, she didn't care about several third-tier artists who were clearly not as good as her standing in the center position.
Moreover, it was said that Guan Nai was an artist Ling Han had personally signed with Pleasure when he first started working there. To Pleasure, her existence was probably more than just an artist.
In recent years, there were many people who represented Gu Sinian in suppressing Pleasure. It was true that Ling Han had the ability to support such a large company, but if there was no one behind him, Pleasure would not be able to achieve anything.
After explaining, Ye Huanyan returned to the office to look through the various contracts and documents that needed to be dealt with.
Under the floor-to-ceiling window, the sun shone on her back, covering her figure with a faint halo.
Gu Chi worked very quickly. When he came back and saw such a scene, he was a little dazed.
Ye Huanyan looked up. "How is it? Is it all done? "
He came back to his senses. "I have an appointment with President Ling for dinner tonight to talk about Guan Nai. In addition, the technical department has checked the matter of the invisible shareholders. A part of Pleasure's year-end bonus every year flows into the Eastern European Royal Family."
Hearing this, Ye Huanyan turned the gel pen in her hand thoughtfully. It was similar to what she had thought. When she used to work at Pleasure, there was a bonus that went missing every year. It seemed that only Ling Han himself knew about this bonus. At that time, she was just a secretary and was not qualified to care about the board of directors' matters. Now that she was a partner, she had to figure out the asset structure of Pleasure.
At night, the appointment was made at Donglin Private Clubhouse. Not long after Ye Huanyan sat down, Ling Han arrived right on time.
This was the second time they had met after returning to China. She could clearly feel that Ling Han was deliberately distancing himself from her.
"My secretary said that you wanted to talk to me about Guan Nai?"
Ling Han took off his coat and handed it to the waiter. He pulled out a chair and sat opposite Ye Huanyan.
"Yes, I said at dinner last time. If there is a chance, I hope that Guan Nai can be the female lead of this movie."
"I've told you before that this is a very difficult thing to do. After Guan Nai got married, she rarely took on any roles. She only took on one movie a year. It all depends on her mood."
Five years ago, Guan Nai got married and announced her retirement from the entertainment industry. For the next five years, she took on one movie a year. Two of them were dark horses in those two years. The box office was not high, but the reviews were very good. She won the Best Actress Award twice. The other three movies had high ticket sales, but they won the Golden Broom Award for "Best Lousy Movie". Guan Nai was directly scolded as the Queen of Lousy Movies.
Ye Huanyan had seen all five movies. The directors, producers, and producers were all different. If there was anything in common, it was that the female lead was set up as a person at the bottom of society, interspersed with the drama of the prince falling in love with Cinderella. It was either a comedy or a tragedy.
It was very different from Guan Nai's background.
"Have you shown her my script?"
"Yes, I have, but there is no reply." Ling Han made his attitude clear. "Guan Nai is on vacation at this time. She won't read any scripts."
"Where is she?"
Ye Huanyan looked at him with a look of wanting to get to the bottom of the matter.
Ling Han frowned. "Does this movie have to have Guan Nai? I remember that Haiyan Media didn't mention this before signing the contract with me. Pleasure and many other artists have a similar image to Guan Nai. You can choose freely. Even if the schedule doesn't match, you can adjust it and focus on your movie. "
"Other artists?" Ye Huanyan looked at Ling Han meaningfully.
"President Ling's ex-girlfriend, Sheng Anran?"
Ling Han's eyes darkened. He stared into the woman's eyes and the feeling of deja vu seemed to come back.
He frowned and said unhappily, "I didn't expect President Gu to like reading the groundless news of gossip magazines."
Hearing this, Ye Huanyan was slightly stunned. She immediately restrained the expression on her face and calmly picked up the cup by her hand. "It's just a joke. President Ling, don't take it seriously."
"President Gu is really good at joking."
Ling Han frowned and his face was a bit gloomy.
Gu Huanyan seemed to understand him very well. While speaking, she could always secretly cut a hole in his heart, giving him a familiar yet strange feeling. He didn't know if this feeling was deliberately created by her or if it was inadvertently revealed by her.
He suddenly thought of something. Although he had no evidence, his intuition told him that it might have something to do with her.
"No one is more suitable for the female lead of this movie than Guan Nai, just like no one is more suitable for the male lead than Su Nianhua. Since you are working with Haiyan, you should trust me. Every decision I make is to create the best conditions for Pleasure to establish a foothold in the media industry."
Ye Huanyan curved her red lips and smiled seductively. "So I hope President Ling can seriously consider this."
