Chapter 662: Focus On Snatching Resources
In mid-December, a traversing web drama hit the Internet. The popularity of the first female lead also continuously expanded with the popularity of the web drama. After that, she immediately reached the top of the new media female artist ranking index and she ranked first for half a month.
She certainly could not be compared to Jiang Yuning’s consecutive months of winning, but the problem is that Jiang Yuning’s name was no longer visible on this new media index list.
On other hand, this Shen Zhongwei was also one of the nominees for the candidates of the best top actress for this year’s Golden Magnolia Awards.
Since there were people who wanted to crush Jiang Yuning from all sides, Jiang Yuning rarely appeared in the entertainment circle nowadays.
As the time for the Golden Magnolia Awards was getting closer and closer, Jiang Yuning still did not panic but she continued filming her scenes professionally.
Hou Da called her during this period of time. After all, they were still waiting for <Yan Huasu> to be broadcasted. If Jiang Yuning was going to retire now, what would become of her wealth?
“What the hell are you think? You were just becoming very popular and you are suddenly semi retiring. There are so many new actresses and artistes appearing nowadays. How do you expect me to broadcast my <Yan Huasu> next year? I invested my entire wealth there! If this is the situation that you are in, then how are you going to attract any further investment next year?”
“Hou Da, don’t worry. I will give you a very satisfactory answer about whether you are going to lose your fortune after the Golden Magnolia Awards,” Jiang Yuning replied as she calmed Hou Da down. “Don’t worry, I will definitely make sure that I will give <Yan Huasu> the best platform and top-level publicity before it is broadcasted next year. I will make sure that I personally do it myself.”
“At that time...”
Did she still have the right to speak?
Hou Da nearly yelled out the second half of her sentence but she simply held back her words because she was worried about Jiang Yuning’s mood.
Jiang Yuning thought about it for a moment and she felt that it was indeed unfair for Hou Da to go through such a long period of fear. Therefore, she explained to her: “Hou Da, I will really promote all the endorsement variety shows and film and television resources in future. It is true that I will not continue to be active in the film and television industry as an artiste.”
“There are is still a ‘but’ in your sentence, right?”
“But...at the end of December, Guangying Media will announce that I will take over the position of the artiste director. I will begin to work from the backstage then. As you know, I have already been active in front of the screen. So, I have found my own new location now.”
“You should have just told me this earlier.” After the monkey listened, she sighed with relief, “I’m afraid that you will pat your butt and not care about anything else since you are already retiring. Since you are just going to work behind the scenes, what can I worry about?”
If she was going to work behind the scenes as the artiste director, then would she simply be a professional at focusing on snatching resources then? Moreover, it would be easy for her to choose any film and television work that she wanted to do if she was working behind the scenes.
A top artistes behind the scenes would bring about a lot of speculations about the work that she has shot and has yet to be broadcasted yet.
Including Jiang Yuning...
Hou Da felt a little excited now.
“Aren’t you worried anymore?”
“If I were you, I will keep in mind and remember all those people who have been stepping on you indiscriminately, especially those who have cause a big fire over the recent web drama. When you become the artiste director, then those who used to stare at you and made fun of you will definitely get slapped in their faces. When the time comes, you can just take out your notebook and focus on snatching all of their resources then.”
Jiang Yuning listened to the excitement of Hou Da and she couldn’t help but smile. “So, for this refreshing feeling, I have to ask you to keep this a secret.”
“Am I that kind of person?”
“<Suffocation> is about to be finish filming in a few days’ time. Then, can we have a meal together at that time?” Jiang Yuning took the initiative to make an appointment to meet Hou Da in person, which made her feel very relieved.
“Okay.”
Hou Da originally thought that she had missed it. Although she knew about the Lu family, she also felt that with Jiang Yuning’s mind, she would be able to tide over the difficulties. It was just recently that she heard the news that Jiang Yuning was going to semi retire. Since Jiang Yuning hadn’t come out to make a statement about the matter, Hou Da started to panic.
Now that she thought about it, this person did not leak anything. She was very considerate in all aspects.
Jiang Yuning’s reputation was so bad now but once the news is announced, the attainment circle will blow up again.
There were also those sand sculptures that have offended Jiang Yuning and still did not know it. Then, she would just wait to see how miserable it would end for them.
...
On December 23rd, Jiang Yuning officially finished filming <Suffocation>. Lu Jingzhi sent Special Assistant Ho to send a bouquet of flowers to her. The crew also prepared a cake for her. The Ginger Candies held a grand support event because they knew that there might not be much opportunity for them to support Jiang Yuning in the future.
Jiang Yuning declined all interviews and she said goodbye to all her colleagues in the crew. Later that evening, she got into the car before she returned home from the crew.
After arriving at the entrance of the villa, Jiang Yuning was about to get out of the car. At this time, she realized that the expression on the young paparazzo’s face was a little weird. She patted the young paparazzo gently on the shoulder before she asked, “What’s wrong?”
The young paparazzo looked up at Jiang Yuning with some disappointment in his face. “Sister Yuning, after this, aside from the Golden Magnolia Awards Ceremony on the 28th, you will have no other activities anymore. Does that mean that you will no longer need me in future? I still want to fill up your signature in my house...I always feel that your acting career has just begun...”
“I am only semi retiring. I will still be acting when I see a good movie in future.”
“But, as the artiste director, you will be serving others in the future. How can you have time?”
“How could I abandon you, the poor little one? When I take office, you will become my assistant. Of course, if you want to train artistes or have even more ambitious goals, I can also help you achieve it. Are you interested? If so, then you can come to Guangying Media after Christmas and sign a contract with me.”
After listening to Jiang Yuning’s words, the young paparazzo’s eyes brightened again.
“I will go with you, no matter what you do, I will support it.”
“You support me so much, so how can I let you down?”
After saying this, Jiang Yuning pushed the door and got out of the car. The young paparazzo immediately got out of the car and happily took the luggage out for Jiang Yuning.
“Then you have a good rest for the next two days. I will come and pick you up on the 25th.”
Jiang Yuning shook his head. She felt that the young paparazzo’s reaction was really cute.
After entering the house, Jiang Yuning was a little excited. She thought that she would be able to see Lu Jingzhi right away. However, Sister Liang told her that the time for Lu Jingzhi to return home in the past few days was basically over ten o’clock at night.
Jiang Yuning immediately thought of Lu Jingzhi’s other identity.
He had to go to work during the day to pretend that he was free. After getting off work, he would have to do more secretive things.
“It’s okay, Sister Liang. You can get off work first. I’ll wait for him.”
“Young mistress, sir has been under a lot of pressure recently. I think, if you have time now, you should comfort him a little more.”
Jiang Yuning understood Sister Liang’s suggestion. The so-called high pressure that she was talking about should be the mocking rumors that were directed at him.
“Okay, Sister Liang. Don’t worry, I will comfort him.”
