The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 336 Difficult to coax
As I walked out of the studio carrying the box, I ran into Mei Xue, who was coming to work overtime. The two of them came face to face.

Mei Xue is different from other agents in the industry. Because the artists under her management have limited working hours, her income does not rely entirely on commissions. Gu Lanxi also pays her a considerable annual salary.

Seeing that she still came to work overtime on Sunday, I couldn't help but smile and remind her, "Don't forget to clock in, there's overtime pay for weekends."

Although Mei Xue loves money, she would never do something like working overtime for free.

He couldn't help but smile at her: "If I go out to run personal errands during work hours, will my salary be deducted?"

Her working hours are flexible, and she doesn't get her salary deducted when she occasionally goes out to run personal errands, so how could she possibly ask for overtime pay?

Gu Lanxi didn't argue with her about it, and replied, "Then I'll listen to you," before leaving with the box.

Lu Nanting has already set off; she needs to hurry over.

Mei Xue took a few steps and called her back: "There are still many gifts on the innermost shelf, a total of six large boxes. What do you think we should do with them?"

The studio has a lot of materials, and there is a special room for storing things. It's like a courier station, with rows and rows of steel frames, and all kinds of things are categorized and always full.

Gu Lanxi was only focused on retrieving the letter and didn't look at it much before asking her:
"Why are there so many? Have they all been registered?"

Mei Xue made a knowing look, skipped the first question, and only answered the second:
"Of course, besides those handed to you, the studio registers every gift it receives before putting it into inventory."

Previously, fans would send gifts to Starlight, but after the studio was established, the official Weibo account specifically posted the studio's address, and now fans send them here.

No wonder she's cautious.

There was a senior figure in the industry whose studio was poorly managed. Employees took gifts from fans and sold them secondhand. When the fans found out, the studio was not good at crisis management, and the consequences were terrible. Since then, everyone has strengthened their management in this area.

"Okay, then I'll load the letter into the car first."

"I'll do it! They're stacked up, and they're really heavy."

Despite her objections, Mei Xue took the box from the top.

Afterwards, I reminded her, "Take a picture while you're watching. Even if you don't post it, it's good to save it for when you need it."

Gu Lanxi nodded: "Don't worry, I know."

She is a person who values ​​sincerity, and she remembers almost every letter she has read.

Some clever fans will include a photo of themselves in the letter, along with their own name.

Gu Lanxi occasionally encounters these people offline and can always accurately call them by name.

Fans get so excited they almost faint!

This must be a unique kind of romance for Xiao Yuanbao.

If it were any other celebrity, they'd be lucky to even remember any wealthy fans; it would be impossible for them to remember so many.

As for replying, she never replied randomly.

She would check if the letter contained any substance, if the sender's handwriting was neat, and if the two people shared similar values, etc.

She never liked randomness; her kindness was always reserved for those who were sincere.

The two put the letter in the trunk and went back to the studio to move some things.

Today she drove a car with a large trunk, and seeing that the gifts hadn't been opened, she simply put them all in the car.

"I'll record an unboxing video later."

It's been a week since the couple's reality show aired. Since she officially announced several endorsements back in November, she's been mostly quiet for over a month, except for this show. It's time for her to pop up and connect with her fans.

"Okay, send it over when you're done recording, and I'll have someone edit it as soon as possible."

There are people in the studio who specialize in this, so Gu Lanxi rarely assigns her a task, and she will naturally do it with care.

The studio's official Weibo account posts updates about once every one or two months, and each time they prepare carefully. Fans appreciate it, and each post gets over a million likes.

Brands value these data points highly, which makes negotiating endorsements much smoother.

The gifts, complete with packaging, filled six large boxes, filling the trunk and the back seat, yet two boxes still wouldn't fit.

Mei Xue simply drove her there.

Lu Nanting arrived first. The studio's indoor parking lot could only accommodate two cars, and the bodyguards were moving the cars when Gu Lanxi arrived.

Upon receiving her message, Lu Nanting was puzzled when she asked someone to go down and help move things. However, the bodyguard took a trailer and made two trips to finish moving everything.

There were eight large cardboard boxes filled with fans' letters and various gifts.

On top of it was a box containing a Rubik's Cube.

Lu Nanting's face immediately fell.

"Weren't you going to stay with me? Are you just going to sit in the corner and open your presents?"

Giving gifts is never as joyful as receiving them! Gu Lanxi didn't say this aloud, but her expressive eyes couldn't hide her feelings.

"You should go and take care of your business. I'll solve the Rubik's Cube for you when you're resting. I also have things to do at other times, otherwise I'll have to take time out to deal with these things later."

The end of the year is her busiest time.

This year, in particular, I have several shareholder meetings to attend, economic forums to participate in, entertainment industry events to manage the company that's just getting on track, investment projects to handle, time to make time for interesting things, and then I still have to squeeze in time for my wedding...

There's not much time left for our fans.

Oh, I still have to coax men.

If this man is unreasonable and causes trouble all the time, she doesn't plan to coax him.

Lu Nanting was about to say that he was hard to coax and was trying to push his luck, but seeing that Gu Lanxi had stopped smiling, he could only follow Wang Jia away with a wronged expression.

The meeting room was empty, so the staff helped move it over. They opened the curtains, and even though it was broad daylight, the one-way glass meant you couldn't see outside.

She brought over the camera and asked the studio to help record footage, then she sat down and started disassembling it.

After dismantling one pile, the staff brought her another pile.

"Feather duster? Hang it behind the door and use it to sweep dust."

Gu Lanxi was a little confused when she unpacked a feather duster. Just as she was about to throw away the box, a note fell out, explaining in detail the purpose of the item.

In short, when some people are itching for a beating, the head of the household can use a few tools to establish his authority.

Gu Lanxi sighed, "Why would I need this? Hang it by the door and send it to sweep shoes."

In the dry season, when you come back from outside, your shoes and trouser legs are covered in dust. In the spring, you're covered in willow catkins. Hanging this by the door is very useful.

Lu Nanting finished his work and came over just in time to see this scene. He felt that he didn't need to be coaxed and his mood improved.

See? What a terrible idea! His wife isn't that kind of person.

After all, she landed a punch...

Forget it, don't think about such things.

Seeing him come in, Gu Lanxi took out the Rubik's Cube and started to solve it for him.

"Watch closely, this is the moment to witness a miracle!"

Lu Nanting stared wide-eyed.

Gu Lanxi moved swiftly. The 21x2 Rubik's Cube was a piece of cake for her. She seemed to need no thought as she held it with both hands and spun it rapidly.

At first, it wasn't fully formed, but soon, Lu Nanting's portrait was pieced together.

That piece was huge, and it wasn't easy to piece together his image, but you could recognize him at a glance in the end. It was truly amazing.

"This one isn't big enough, and we chose a clearer photo, but we can't fit the name in it."

"How did you spell that last time?"

"That super high-order Rubik's Cube isn't at home."

"where is it?"

"I gave it to a friend for his birthday. It's one of those that needs to be customized, so it's not easy to buy."

Seeing that his eyes were red, Gu Lanxi scratched her head:
"Moreover, the higher the level, the more complex the calculations involved. It takes a long time to solve that one. It took me a whole week to solve it. Even though the Rubik's Cube is at home, I haven't had time to work on it lately."

"So you've gotten what you wanted and now you don't care anymore, huh?"

The video recorder was still on. Gu Lanxi glanced at it quickly, signaling the staff to turn it off, before glaring at him and saying, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"that is!"

"So what do you want? Just tell me, and I'll do it!"

Lu Nanting himself didn't know what he really wanted.

Then Wang Jia started calling him again.

He walked away with a cold face.

After he left, Gu Lanxi began to wonder if she had been spoiling him too much lately.

Did this lead him to become arrogant and spoiled?
This is a good question.

Young Master's Perspective:
She lied to me. If I weren't smart, I would have been fooled by her...

She brushed me off, saying she'd spend the whole day with me, but left early in the morning without waiting for me. Then she promised to solve a Rubik's Cube for me, but not only did she not concentrate, the final product was a heavily edited version!
Awooo!!! I'm going to cause a ruckus!!
