The Queen's Rumored Father

The entertainment industry in this world is clearly structured, with four major giants checking and balancing each other. Most of the top-tier and super-top-tier entertainment companies are under their control, leaving other small and medium-sized entertainment companies with virtually no competitive advantage.

Therefore, it is all the more remarkable that Meng Xiaoxuan was able to break into the ranks of the Four Little Heavenly Queens based on her popularity.

Because the other three pop divas are all members of the "Big Four" in the entertainment industry.

Yang Ying from Huace Culture, Ling Xingru from Dixing Entertainment, and Tong Liya from Songren Film & Television.

However, among the four giants, one of them has been declining in recent years, and Meng Xiaoxuan has taken over the position of the little queen.

That's Qianda Media!

The top female star of Qianda Media left to start her own business, and many other actresses under Qianda's banner followed suit. One of them was Qianda's former rising star. Qianda certainly couldn't allow someone who had betrayed them to gain popularity, so they blacklisted her in the industry.

This led to Meng Xiaoxuan's unexpected rise to become one of the Four Little Heavenly Queens.

Qianda Media is in dire need of a leading female star.

Some time ago, Zhang Lin, the chairman of Qianda Media, who is now the silver-haired middle-aged man vomiting in front of me, sounded out Chen Kewen. This time, he went so far as to meet with me directly, and his intentions are quite clear.

"Xu Yuan, this..." Cao Dun looked at Xu Yuan, afraid that Xu Yuan would do something to offend Zhang Lin.

"It's alright, I underestimated Xu Yuan's driving skills. Awesome!" Zhang Lin finished vomiting, tidied himself up, and led Cao Dun and Xu Yuan into the villa. "Please."

The villa is in the style of British royalty, with a magnificent and spacious interior, which is a typical waste of space for pragmatists.

The maids inside were all dressed in professional British-style clothing, and there were also a few Lolita girls.

Xu Yuan's pupils contracted because he discovered that at least two of them were female artists under Qianda, and they were newcomers.

This is the inevitable path for female celebrities.

This is also why Xu Yuan wanted to protect Meng Xiaoxuan.

He doesn't look down on these female celebrities. They aren't selling their bodies or souls; they're just chatting. On the contrary, as long as they maintain their principles, they deserve respect. They are working hard for their dreams, and there's nothing wrong with that.

She's much better than some female celebrities who appear glamorous on the surface but are actually involved in petty theft and pimping.

But Xu Yuan wouldn't let Meng Xiaoxuan go through this process.

There are many paths to becoming a superstar, but the one right now is quite difficult.

Since Xu Yuan wanted to spoil his daughter, he would naturally let her take the easier path.

Let him, as the father, take on these responsibilities.

"Yes, right here... Mmm, that feels good... Put a little more pressure on my calves!"

Xu Yuan lay on the European-style sofa, and two young girls were giving him a vigorous massage. Their technique was clumsy, but their strength was considerable.

He has indeed shouldered too much.

The three of them chatted while enjoying their massages.

Xu Yuan then learned that Cao Dun had already signed with Qianda Media.

It's no wonder Cao Dun has been beaming these past few days, having managed to find such a powerful backer. Moreover, I've heard that Qianda Media is already having Cao Dun prepare a new project, but the specific investment amount will depend on the performance of *The Longest Day in Chang'an*.

Cao Dun has a lot of confidence in the TV series "Chang'an".

Xu Yuan also has it.

"I heard that you're handling all of Meng Xiaoxuan's business now?" Zhang Lin changed the subject, finally getting to the point.

"Yes." Xu Yuan nodded.

"Haoyue Films probably won't let this go easily. They can't just let such a big cash cow stay in their own hands," Zhang Lin said. "In these recent incidents, Haoyue has been doing the opposite, dragging you down."

"As far as I know, Haoyue, Huace, and Dixing have a tacit agreement: while they use Meng Xiaoxuan to make money, they ruin her future career. In return, the two companies will give Haoyue more resources to cultivate more new stars."

Xu Yuan's pupils contracted.

Zhang Lin had no reason to lie to him about something like this.

Moreover, Xu Yuan had already sensed this situation.

"What do you mean?" Xu Yuan didn't even look at Zhang Lin, but instead stared at the little girl who was massaging his calves.

"Qianda wants to sign Xiaoxuan," Zhang Lin said bluntly, staring intently at Xu Yuan.

If at the beginning he thought Xu Yuan was just a young agent with some brains who knew how to charm young girls and had managed to snatch Meng Xiaoxuan from Haoyue and into his own hands...

So, his conversation with Cao Dun earlier today made him realize that Xu Yuan was likely very knowledgeable and talented!

Moreover, his relationship with Meng Xiaoxuan was extremely unusual, and Meng Xiaoxuan listened to him completely.

However, after he personally went to pick up Xu Yuan, intending to spy on this young man, he gained something new.

This young man is not short of money.

Those who can afford to drive sports cars like this are either very rich or very powerful.

Moreover, the demeanor Xu Yuan exuded showed that he hadn't shown the slightest curiosity or awe towards the Garden Villa from beginning to end. That wasn't feigned composure; it was genuine indifference.

These kinds of people are the most difficult to deal with.

"I can sign with Qianda," Xu Yuan said, "as a studio, and Xiaoxuan will only sign with my studio."

Let's be straightforward!

Neither Cao Dun nor Zhang Lin expected Xu Yuan to give this answer.

"What a pleasant surprise! Old Cao has praised you, Long Bo, to me countless times. We at Qianda Media would love to welcome an actor of your caliber." Zhang Lin was at a loss for words.

Who do you think you are? Do you even have any status? Why would I sign you? Are you kidding me?

Besides, a studio?

That's something only the very top tier has the right to touch.

Even if it's not an independent studio, but a studio under Qianda, the permissions and freedom are completely different from those of ordinary signed artists.

This Xu Yuan is not very famous, but he has a big appetite.

Most importantly, Meng Xiaoxuan is signed to his studio. Strictly speaking, she is not an artist of Qianda, but an artist of Xu Yuan!

Zhang Lin could not accept this.

"We can talk to Haoyue directly and buy Meng Xiaoxuan's contract," Zhang Lin said with a smile, but his attitude was different from before, with a touch more domineering.

This is the aura of the chairman of Qianda, one of the four giants.

"Do you know how much the penalty for breach of contract is for Xiaoxuan?" Xu Yuan laughed. "Ten million!"

"What?!"

Not to mention Zhang Lin, even Cao Dun almost jumped up.

Ten million?

The price of cabbage!

Are Haoyue Films idiots?

What's the difference between this price and the penalty for breach of contract by newcomers? This means that basically every major entertainment company can afford it!

"Xiaoxuan was signed to Haoyue Film and Television as an internet celebrity. Back then, let alone ten million, even five million was considered a high penalty for breach of contract," Xu Yuan explained briefly. "No matter what conditions Qianda offers, Xiaoxuan will only join my personal studio. You don't need to doubt that."

"Oh? Without Qianda's support, Meng Xiaoxuan's future... hehe." Zhang Lin smiled without saying a word.

The reason why Meng Xiaoxuan is able to outshine Yang Ying is partly because her series of actions during this period have been very impressive, leading to repeated victories.

But if Hua Ce really goes all out, Meng Xiaoxuan probably won't be able to make a move at all.

The four industry giants are not so simple.

"I'm signed with Qianda, and Meng Xiaoxuan is signed with my studio, so she's actually considered a Qianda artist. At worst, we can keep this detail private. Qianda is short of a top star, right? Meng Xiaoxuan will always be Qianda's top star. Just let me know if you need her, and she'll be there anytime."

"Qianda doesn't cultivate top stars for others!" Zhang Lin slammed his fist on the table, his neck turning red with anger!

He was hit where it hurt!
