Run, Best Actor!

Chapter 74 A Word Made in Haste

The relationship between bosses and employees is always one of exploitation and being exploited.

Therefore, the two can never empathize, and thus cannot have a good relationship.

Normally, the boss can still act respectful and humble to maintain his public image.

But if the company runs into problems, the boss will never hesitate to sacrifice his subordinates to solve them.

this is the truth.

"Wait a minute!"

Yang Mi suddenly noticed something important and stared at Liu Taile with wide eyes, "Didn't you just call me stupid?"

"Which part of what I said was that you were stupid?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Taile was a little stunned.

"You just said that I still haven't won over Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao."

Yang Mi started gathering her strength, her cheeks puffing out. "Isn't that just saying I'm stupid?!"

"..."

Liu Taile felt somewhat powerless. "Wait, so after all this talk, this is what you're really focusing on?"

"Hey, you need to explain yourself clearly. Who's the idiot?"

Yang Mi stood with her hands on her hips, refusing to back down.

"The key is that I was right!"

Liu Taile spread his hands, "Let's just say that you are the core of your studio, and all the revenue depends on you, so how can you expect two agents to compete with you?"

"You have no idea how much Jia-jie and Yao-yao helped me during those years."

Yang Mi suddenly said seriously, "Especially Sister Jia, she has a really wide network of connections, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sign with Mei Ya so quickly back then."

Hearing her say that, Liu Taile scratched his head.

Although, in retrospect, Yang Mi's decision to sign with Mei Ah Entertainment in 2010 and try to enter the Hong Kong entertainment circle was as foolish as joining the National Revolutionary Army in 49.

But in reality, this viewpoint is actually an arrogant one that adopts a God's-eye view.

In the current era, although it is clear to everyone that as the mainland entertainment industry becomes increasingly powerful, the Hong Kong entertainment industry is slowly declining.

However, the process was indeed faster than anyone expected.

After all, no one could have predicted that the highest box office record for a domestic film would be set in just two years, from 6.5 million yuan for "Aftershock" in 2010 to nearly quadrupling that of "Lost in Thailand" (12.7 billion yuan)!

Capital is driven by profit. Everyone can see that the mainland film and television market is a vast blue ocean, so naturally they will further abandon Hong Kong and Taiwan and embrace the domestic entertainment industry.

It was only starting in 2012 that artists and their production teams from Hong Kong and Taiwan began to move to the mainland in full force.

This also represents the collapse and decline of pure Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment.

However, this doesn't actually have much impact on Yang Mi.

Although she was publicly criticized by the Hong Kong entertainment circle, she seemed to have slunk back to the mainland.

But he immediately took on the role in "Tiny Times," and the following year he had the highly anticipated drama "Swords of Legends," followed by various other well-known films and television series.

What truly caused a major setback in her career was her marriage and childbirth with that Hong Kong man surnamed Liu at the peak of her career.

This resulted in a gap of more than half a year.

During this period, Tang Yan, Tong Liya, Ni Ni, and others who were originally ranked after her gradually rose in status.

Of course, the one who has improved the fastest and the most has to be Zhao Liying, who has risen directly from an unknown actress born in 85 to one of the top actresses!

It can only be said that it was a matter of timing and fate.

If you look at it that way, Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao have actually been quite helpful to Yang Mizhen over the past few years.

The two started sabotaging her from the later stages of the betting match.

That was entirely due to a falling out over interests.

Right now, I still don't understand who the king and queen are.

"Friendship is friendship, and business is business."

Liu Taile shook his head and said, "Sister Mi, don't let past favors influence your current judgment."

I'll ask you one question: In your future startup, do you want to be in complete control, or do you want to share the decision-making power with Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao?

"Well……"

Yang Mi blinked her big eyes. "Isn't there a solution that won't damage our relationship?"

"Honey, you're usually so smart, why are you so confused these days?"

Liu Taile chuckled and said, "Where in this world can you have it all? Even the Buddha couldn't achieve perfection, so how can we ordinary people expect everything to go as we wish?"

Honey, you'd better make a decision soon. Otherwise, the longer this drags on, the harder it will be to resolve later.

If things truly reach a point of no return, you'll likely lose even more in the future!

Isn't that what the original timeline was?

Although he eventually regained his freedom, it was impossible for him not to be skinned alive.

The key issue is that he wasted a lot of time in order to start a company and train new people, and even fell out with many people in the industry over interests.

In the end, if you end up with a complete mess, that's when you've truly been ripped off.

"well……"

Yang Mi sighed, then laughed self-deprecatingly, "I, Yang Mi, don't consider myself a good person. Over the years, my friendships with many people have indeed been just for show."

But I can say with absolute certainty that I am truly sincere and genuine with the people around me.

But... how did things get to this point?

Just over two years ago, the three sisters left Rong Xinda together, determined to start from scratch and work together to create their own little world in the entertainment industry.

Now, Yang Mi has become a top-tier female star, and Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao will be upper-middle-class figures, whether at Mei Ya or Huanrui.

As a result, the three gradually drifted apart.

Now that these things are practically on the table, Yang Mi feels somewhat exhausted whenever she thinks about them.

Oh, this is still the "butterfly effect" at work.

Otherwise, Yang Mi at this time would have been a love-struck girl, completely manipulated by Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao like a puppet!

But at that time, she was clearly caught up in a false sense of happiness.

Although I am now fully conscious, I can clearly feel the pain.

This should be considered a good thing, right...?

Because reality always brings pain.

But it also makes people realize that they are truly living.

"A short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one, Honey!"

Seeing that the conversation had gotten this far, Liu Taile felt he had to say something: "You need to understand that as your position in the industry rises, what you need is a highly capable team that can safely obey you and provide you with a solid support system."

Not the kind of ambitious but highly capable person who's always trying to surpass you and become your boss!

Liu Taile has already made his point very clear.

Yang Mi understands, but because of their long-standing relationship, she can't quite get over it in her heart.

"Let me think about it some more, Xiao Le."

Yang Mi sighed wearily, "After all, she's been my sister for years and has helped me all this time. I can't be ungrateful."

"Okay, Honey."

Liu Taile also knew that this kind of thing, which could be described as "scraping the bone to remove poison," was not something that ordinary people could endure.

We must not rush things.

However, we cannot let it drag on for too long.

Things can change over time.

"I'll be wrapping up filming in a couple of days, and then I'll go back to Yanjing to meet with Mr. Wang, the boss of Enlight Media."

Liu Taile said slowly, "I will come back with the film project later."

"And when the time comes, I hope you can make the decision and have your studio invest in this project."

Just as Yang Mi was about to say that her studio didn't have much money, she saw the deeper meaning in Liu Taile's eyes.

Then she suddenly realized something and swallowed her words.

The studio doesn't have much money, but she herself is very wealthy!

However, normally she doesn't need to spend any money. As long as she negotiates with the production company, she can use her salary to invest in the company.

But this definitely requires her to have the authority to make decisions within the studio.

However, the thought of the upcoming film projects made her excited again.

As long as I can continue acting in movies, what do a few hardships in life matter?
