Run, Best Actor!

Presumably fearing that Yang Mi would continue to hold leverage over them, Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao hurriedly paid off all the taxes they had owed in the past.

"Great, the tax issue is resolved. From now on, there will be no loopholes at the company level."

Yang Tianzhen was satisfied as she told Yang Mi about the current situation at Tianyi Entertainment.

"Sister Tianzhen, I don't know much about business management, so I'll be relying entirely on you for the company's operations from now on!"

Yang Mi said sincerely to Yang Tianzhen.

"Don't worry, you and Ah Lok trust me so much. Not only did you give me company shares, but you also entrusted me with important responsibilities and even helped me realize my long-held dream of becoming a producer. Of course, I will do my best to help you. Besides, isn't this my own company after all?"

Yang Tianzhen laughed and said, "In fact, in my opinion, our business is much easier to run. Neither you nor Ale have any real dirt on you, and even the most dangerous tax issue has been resolved."

On a larger scale, there are still so many projects that have been finalized. As long as we don't make any mistakes, it's only a matter of time before our company thrives.

"Hehe~~ It's all thanks to Xiao Le on the film and television projects."

Yang Mi looked at Liu Taile and kept praising him, "He went to Enlight Media and directly discussed cooperation intentions for five films with Boss Wang. He's really amazing!"

"Indeed, being able to negotiate so many projects with Boss Wang of Enlight Media, Ah Le, you're truly born for this job!"

Yang Tianzhen also praised it.

"Let's stop with this mutual flattery."

Liu Taile waved his hand, telling the two ladies to calm down, "Although the future is bright, the road ahead is still winding."

Firstly, both of our companies have been established for a short time and have very weak foundations. At least currently, neither of us can independently complete the production of a film or television work, and we can't even work together!

Secondly, we have very few artists under our management. Although it is best to have fewer but better ones, some of the excess resources do need to be taken over.

For example, some of the resources that Sister Honey can bring in that she herself doesn't need are resources that your company's female artists can't take over.

"Don't bring that up again."

Yang Mi's face immediately fell. "Now, I get so angry whenever I hear about this."

That damn Zeng Jia, she didn't leave me a single female celebrity!

Yang Mi was really upset when Yang Mi was told that she had let the female artists signed to her studio choose who to follow, but no one actually stayed.

As a result, she began to harbor resentment towards Zeng Jia.

"The surplus resources can only be used for resource exchange or to build connections."

Yang Tianzhen calmly said, "Hey, take that pretty girl you just signed, A-Le, the one named Reba. Let's use her to fill in for now and allocate some resources to her."

"It's possible, but that girl has only been in the industry for two years, so we can't push her too hard."

Liu Taile replied, "Let's allocate some low-end brand resources to her first, so she can build up her brand awareness."

The group made a decision so casually that it would make Reba go crazy with joy.

Okay, even though they're not in the same company in this timeline, Dilraba still can't escape the fate of being "fed resources" by Yang Mi.

Yes, she's got a life that would make other female celebrities green with envy.

"However, even close brothers should keep clear accounts. Since Tianyi Entertainment has allocated resources to Jiale Media, we should also give back to them."

Liu Taile said slowly, "It just so happens that most of the roles in the 'Flying Colors' project are still undecided, so let you choose first."

As a result, Wang Xiao was lucky enough to get the role of Tian Xiao (Japanese version of Yoshitaka Tsubota), the male lead and tutor of Sha Yexiang in "Flying Colors", while Zhang Binbin will play Si Xiaosen (Japanese version of Suzuka Mori), who secretly admires Sha Yexiang.

Well, when it was Gao Weiguang's turn, the situation became somewhat awkward.

His birthday is January 16, 1983. He's almost thirty. If he's playing a high school student, he's too old. It would be too incongruous for him to play a student.

There's no other way but to play characters from the previous generation.

Therefore, the role assigned to Gao Weiguang was Jia Long (Japanese version of Nishimura Takashi), Sha Yexiang's high school teacher.

It was that biased teacher who made a bet with the former underachiever Sha Yexiang: if she got into university, he would run naked at her graduation ceremony.

Although he was biased and a bit sharp-tongued, he kept his word and eventually got into university. He kept his promise and ran naked at their high school graduation ceremony.

Oh, the mainland version certainly can't express it that clearly.

Why not just wear less clothing and run a couple of laps around the track?

There was nothing to be embarrassed about for Gao Weiguang.

Because he was originally a model, he wasn't shy about walking the runway in just his underwear, and running two laps in just his athletic shorts was nothing more than basic training for him.

On the contrary, it allows him to show off his good physique.

Thus, all three artists currently employed by Tianyi Entertainment, besides Yang Mi, have been assigned to the "Flying Colors" production team.

Even Yang Tianzhen served as the producer of that film.

That's right, Yang Tianzhen didn't choose "Back to 20" starring Yang Mi, but instead chose "Flying Colors".

"I am still self-aware."

Yang Tianzhen chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Actually, it's just for fun, so let's find a relatively easier film crew."

"Back to 20" is a key project for both of our companies next year, so it would be better to have Chen Zhixi as the executive producer.

As for "Flying Colors," Guo Tingting and I co-produced it, helping each other and doing our best to complete the production.

After discussing work, we wrapped up what had been going on lately.

Yang Mi asked Yang Tianzhen with a hint of gossip, "Sister Tianzhen, I have a question. How did you manage to leave Sister Bingbing's company so easily? Didn't Sister Bingbing try to keep you?"

Employees with exceptional abilities like Yang Tianzhen are usually not easily let go by their bosses.

But she actually went back and resigned without any hesitation, which Yang Mi found hard to believe.

"Bingbing was obviously trying to persuade me to stay."

Yang Tianzhen shrugged. "But I'm determined to leave, and she has no choice but to let me go. After all..."

With that, Yang Tian smiled mysteriously, "If I said I didn't have any dirt on Sister Bingbing, I doubt you'd believe me, right?"

Yang Mi and Liu Taile, who had their ears perked up, responded with polite smiles.

"Of course, I have professional ethics, and there are some things I will absolutely not say a word about."

Yang Tianzhen said firmly, then added earnestly, "Anyway, Mimi, you and Ale both need to remember that you absolutely cannot do anything illegal in the future, otherwise you're really playing with your professional lives. Even if I could clear someone's name, I'm powerless to do anything about it!"

As she spoke, she casually added, "By the way, especially regarding tax matters, we need to double-check all business contracts we sign with various parties in the future. Don't be careless. We absolutely mustn't be late in paying the taxes that are due!"

Hearing her instructions, Yang Mi and Liu Taile both nodded in agreement.

However, Liu Taile thought about it for a while.

"Why is Sister Tian Zhen bringing up tax issues so much? Could it be...?"

Considering that Fan Bingbing didn't dare to stop Yang Tianzhen from resigning, it shows that she was genuinely afraid of certain things being exposed.

"Wow, so these two types of contracts are just basic operations in this industry!"

Liu Taile clicked his tongue in amazement. "No wonder they used her as an example later. She really went on for too long and had to be dealt with!"
