Chapter 234 - I’ll Help You Become A Queen (2)
"En! I believe with your looks. It would be very easy for you to debut. Of course, you'll need to first go through dome training to learn how to perform well on stage and in front of the camera. I will certainly help you become a queen!"
Su Xiaofei stared at Zhao Yi and inwardly sighed. It was a pity that she wasn't interested in becoming a queen anymore. She wanted to have the freedom to do whatever she wanted and enjoy life on her own terms.
If she became a celebrity, she would be bound to endless criticism by other people and she already had enough of it from her past life.
Zhao Yi handed her card to Su Xiaofei and beamed her a wide smile.
"If you have any doubts, you could visit our company and see for yourself whether I could vouch for my claims today. You may visit us anytime you want."
Su Xiaofei glanced at the card, then returned her gaze to Zhao Yi. By this time, Zhao Yi was probably already facing turbulence at Top Tier Entertainment.
While it's true that Zhao Yi had a good eye to discern a potential candidate to become a celebrity, others viewed her methods as too harsh and always pushing her talents to their limits. For this reason, many of the talents she handled before canceled their contracts with her and demanded the upper management to hand them another manager.
Zhao Yi viewed acting as an art and those so-called celebrities were complacent and were satisfied with what they had now and refused to grow as an artist. Their conflicting views was the reason why Zhao Yi decided to come out to scout for a talent that could rely on her and fit her criteria.
"Miss Zhao, I have to apologize. I have to decline your offer." Su Xiaofei replied. If it was her former self, she would surely not be able to decline Zhao Yi's invitation.
Zhao Yi was visibly stunned by her answer, and it took her a moment before she recovered from her shock. Obviously, she didn't expect that this young woman would decline her invitation without batting an eyelid.
"Miss, won't you consider? I'm not trying to scam you." She told Su Xiaofei. Other young women would be thrilled upon hearing such an invitation, but this young woman seemed unfazed by what their company could offer.
Meanwhile, Xi Qian looked at the two with astonishment. It was obvious that Zhao Yi truly wanted to scout Su Xiaofei, as her eagerness could be seen in her face. It was far different from the professional smile the woman had earlier when she was talking to Ye Mingyu.
Xi Qian already knew that her best friend wasn't interested in becoming an actress, and supported her decision. Having a peaceful mind and freedom were way better than having fame and living with limited free will at all. After witnessing Qin Muyao's recent controversy, Xi Qian now believed that being a celebrity wasn't a walk in the park like everyone assumed it to be.
"Sorry, but I've already made up my mind. However, I do have a proposition for you, Miss Zhao, if you are interested." Su Xiaofei said, before asking Xi Qian a favor to hold her drink for a moment so she could pull out something from her school bag.
Su Xiaofei then handed a business card to Zhao Yi with Yun Qingrong's name and details on it. Of course, she was aware that this was where Zhao Yi met Ye Mingyu and the reason why she had come to see her.
"I'm Su Xiaofei, and the president of Bluemedia is my mother. If Miss Zhao is thinking of moving to another agency to work, may I invite you to join our company instead?" She said, much to Zhao Yi's surprise.
She was the one who sought Su Xioafei to recruit her, but why was she the one being poached instead? As Zhao Yi stared at Yun Qingrong's name on the business card, something stirred in her heart, telling her to give it a good thought.
Actually, Zhao Yi was already having thoughts of resigning from Top tier Entertainment. Not only did her talents leave her, but her seniors weren't giving her any support at all. At this rate, Zhao Yi wouldn't be surprised that celebrities with subpar talents would be rampant in the industry if the trend continued.
What was wrong with challenging her talents and testing their limits? If they didn't know their limitations and didn't accept any room for improvement, what kind of performance would they be able to offer to their audience?
"Bluemedia would branch out to producing quality TV series and films. With Miss Zhao's expertise, I hope you will be able to help us with this goal in the future."
She said this in a polite and professional tone, but Zhao Yi felt some kind of familiarity with it. Zhao Yi didn't know why, but she felt like she had known this young woman from somewhere, but it's impossible, right? This was the first time she met Su Xiaofei.
"Have you really decided not to become a star?" She asked Su Xiaofei. "May I know the reason why?"
"It's simple. I just want to lessen my mother's burden at the company. I know that by being a celebrity, I won't be able to help her at Bluemedia as much as I wish I could. Also, I believe that there are other careers I could try aside from it."
"I see." Zhao Yi nodded in understanding. If Su Xiaofei put it that way, it would be hard for Zhao Yi to convince her to change her mind.
Anyway, Su Xiaofei's proposition didn't sound too bad for Zhao Yi.
"Give my mother a call. I'm sure she will be thrilled to hear from you." Su Xiaofei said, before bidding goodbye.. Since she had already achieved her purpose here, there's no need for them to linger any longer.
