I became famous in the entertainment industry by burning incense

Chapter 614: Four major publications simultaneously extend invitations! (Seeking monthly votes)

Tianding Entertainment.

Even the artists at Tianding didn't expect that the internal strife they had been trying to hide would be exposed by this senior artist from March Sky.

Young artists and veteran artists have completely different ideas.

The veteran artist only felt ashamed!

Family scandals should not be aired in public. In the past, no matter how much trouble we had at the company, it was confined to the company and the news would not spread. We could still stick together as a team outside.

But now that you've leaked the internal problems, everyone is waiting to see the artists of Tianding Entertainment make a fool of themselves.

Those veteran artists only thought that March Band was a petty person who had gotten ahead.

"They couldn't wait to betray their former employer so soon after leaving. When they were at Tianding, the company didn't treat them badly; they were showered with all sorts of top-tier resources!"

"Yes, the company went to great lengths to train them, only to raise an ingrate. They're practically hoping for Tianding's downfall!"

"Fortunately, the company didn't agree to their outrageous contract renewal terms, otherwise, if they had stayed at Tianding, they would have become a cancer to the company sooner or later!"

Compared to the indignation of veteran artists, the thoughts of young artists are much more complicated.

However, most people who discuss it privately tend to have a positive view of March.

"Why didn't I think of leaking the company's situation? That way, I could have gained more influence."

"If the company doesn't value us, then let the fans value us! Let netizens see how Tianding Entertainment promotes veteran artists and then turns around and tramples on us!"

"Yes, we are still too concerned about saving face and too afraid of Tianding's authority!"
Previously, Tianding was a company we respected and admired because it had a well-established promotion system and fair job allocation. But since the new CEO took over, the company has become a complete mess. This is no longer the company I want to stay in; it has become a prison.

"Let them make a scene, the more chaotic the better! I wish the whole world knew that Tianding was doing nothing and bullying newcomers!"

The online discussion was in an uproar, and netizens' ability to follow the drama was remarkable; they managed to sort out the internal chaos of Tianding within an hour.

Just how chaotic is Tianding right now?

Even He Yan was completely bewildered when he saw the information compiled online, because he had no idea that so many things had happened in the company that could cause conflict.

Some insiders at Tianding have come forward to share the information they know with netizens, saying that they only found out about so many other scandals after seeing the news online.

Although the conflict is currently limited to the company's top-tier artists, it has also affected second- and third-tier artists to some extent.

He Yixuan attended a film crew audition today with her colleagues from the same company.

The interview process was going smoothly until the final third round, when they suddenly noticed that the other actors were frequently looking at them and whispering to each other.

This made both of them feel somewhat uncomfortable.

It was only when his companion took out his phone and glanced at the trending topics that he realized the company's conflict had been exposed by March Band.

Her companion's expression changed drastically, and without caring about anything else, she said to He Yixuan with great concern:

"Do you think this scandal will affect the company's standing in the industry? Our resources have already been less than before these past few months, will things get even more difficult from now on?"

He Yixuan shook her head hesitantly: "Probably not. It's mostly A-list celebrities tearing up announcements. Second and third-tier celebrities are actually not that bad."

My companion couldn't help but say, "How can this be considered good? I used to be able to attend at least five events a month, but now it's difficult to attend even three, and I have to go out and find events myself."

"I used to be able to join small production crews like these without even having to audition; now I have to go out and solicit business myself."

The companion became increasingly panicked, his emotions were unstable, and he was extremely anxious.

She suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, I remember you switched from Chenxi Entertainment, right? Why did you want to switch jobs?"
Since the year before last, Jinli, a product of Chenxi Entertainment, has regained popularity. Shouldn't the company's resources be getting better and better? Have they concentrated all their resources on Jinli?
But that doesn't make sense. There's only one Jinli; how could she possibly compete with so many resources? So why did you switch jobs?

He Yixuan had always viewed this matter with extreme calmness, ignoring whatever others said.

She was well aware that some of Tianding's artists were puzzled by her move from Chenxi Entertainment, thinking she was out of her mind.

But she never defended herself. She diligently completed the schedules assigned by her agent and then tried to find other opportunities.

She's worked so hard, why does everyone have to criticize her and misunderstand her?

What did she do wrong? Can't people have any ambition or selfishness?!
He Yixuan didn't know what was going on. Maybe the recent situation at the company affected her mindset, or maybe facing unfamiliar colleagues gave her the courage to act without restraint.

In a moment of madness, she blurted out all her thoughts.

"Jinli's sudden popularity brought a lot of resources to the company, but the company only focused on her, so how could other artists have a chance to stand out?"

Look at Xi Mengze and Qi Guanmingzhu, whom Chenxi Entertainment later brought in. They were already established A-list artists with built-in fame. Chenxi Entertainment only focused on these veteran artists. No matter how hard new artists try, they can never surpass them!

He Yixuan believes she has a very clear understanding of Chenxi Entertainment.

She knew that the company's development strategy revolved around established A-list artists, and it was indeed difficult for new artists to have a chance to stand out. Even if there were some good announcements, they were all leftovers.

Even the company is pinning its hopes on veteran artists, expecting them to provide for her in her old age. As an ambitious artist, she feels powerless in the face of this situation.

That's why she wanted a change of environment.

How come no one else understands such a simple truth?

After He Yixuan finished speaking, she thought her companions would understand her, but instead she was met with even more puzzled looks from them.

"How can you be so ambitious? Do you want to be even more popular than Jinli and reach the same level as her? But even Tianding might not be able to produce another Jinli, let alone Chenxi Entertainment."

If you're thinking of surpassing her, it's basically impossible, unless you retake the college entrance exam like her. Otherwise, your fame will never surpass hers.

He Yixuan remained silent.

Her companion, seemingly oblivious to her unpleasant expression, continued, "If you stay with Morning Light Entertainment, you won't have to worry about gigs or resources. You have a chance to become a top-tier star."

So what if you can't surpass established A-list artists? Once you become a new A-list artist, you'll still be able to achieve a certain level of status.

I heard from a friend that because of Jinli, Chenxi Entertainment's artists have been getting so many gigs lately. If this continues, they might be able to make an artist famous just by getting so many gigs.

Even if they don't make them instantly famous, their artists have more exposure than others, which increases their chances of becoming overnight sensations. Sigh, Tianding Entertainment is getting more and more chaotic. I'm even considering finding an exit strategy, like switching to Chenxi Entertainment. At least there won't be a shortage of gigs, my livelihood will be guaranteed, and I can still make money.

But it seems that Dawn Entertainment's hiring standards have become higher, and they appear to have reduced their recruitment...

He Yixuan's face grew paler and paler. She couldn't listen anymore and left the film crew without saying a word.
-
The outside world's disturbances did not affect Jinli.

She was still quietly reading in the Morning Light Entertainment.

However, her long-standing popularity was suppressed by Tian Ding, and Jin Li's team secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, I don't have to be exposed so frequently anymore!

If the exposure continues, they will have to consider spending some money to suppress the news's popularity.

After all, it's not a good thing for a celebrity to be in the spotlight too frequently.

Jinli doesn't need to pursue brand endorsements or rise to become a globally renowned star (she hasn't reached that level yet), so there's no need to waste her popularity on meaningless exposure.

The novelty of something for a person will fade over time.

As an actress, Jinli can better maintain her popularity by keeping a bit of mystery.

While Jinli was reading, Sui Lingfang received four consecutive phone calls from strangers.

Half an hour later, she called Jinli down and said she had something important to discuss.

Sui Lingfang seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile on her lips the whole time.

She said cryptically, "Just now, I received four calls from strangers, and it turns out that all four of them were calling about the same thing. What's even more coincidental is that they are all competing in the same field. Can you guess why they contacted you?"

Jinli thought for a moment: "Announcements and endorsements?"

As soon as she said it, she denied it herself.

"That's not quite right. All four brands are competing products of the same type, which is a very rare occurrence."

Although I'm quite famous now, the person who can contact you is certainly not an unknown. I don't think I'm famous enough to have four top brands in the same field extending endorsement offers to me.

Sui Lingfang couldn't help but burst into laughter, her mouth agape.

"Yes, so it wasn't an endorsement or promotional event, but rather an invitation to shoot for a magazine."

She paused, intending to keep it a secret for a few more seconds, but she couldn't wait any longer and quickly said, "The four major publications, all four major publications have extended invitations to you!"

Jinli was somewhat surprised: "The four major magazines? 'Jinse,' 'Nianhua,' 'Fashion Trend'... and 'Huayun'?"

Sui Lingfang couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Yes, and there's also 'Hua Yun' magazine. Even 'Hua Yun' called to ask if you had the time to shoot the October cover, saying they would offer very generous compensation."

"Oh, by the way, the person in charge of Huayun called me this time and brought me some new information. Their former editor-in-chief has been transferred. It is said that he was transferred to T country, and the editor-in-chief who has taken over the magazine is now from Y country."

This news will be announced at the end of this month. She specifically leaked it to me beforehand, wanting to reconcile with you and wipe the hatchet from our past conflicts.

Sui Lingfang remarked with emotion, "Huayun has shown great goodwill. If we go along with this opportunity to shoot for Huayun, it will provide us with many resources in the fashion industry."

Jinli said calmly, "Since all four major fashion magazines want to compete for me, no matter which magazine I shoot for, my fashion resources will be even better. Huayun's previous blockade against me is no longer valid."

Sui Lingfang understood Jinli's unspoken meaning.

So you just don't want to film "Hua Yun"?

She thought Jinli would always be magnanimous and take this opportunity to let bygones be bygones.

Jinli looked at Sui Lingfang, "Sister Fang, am I right?"

Sui Lingfang laughed so hard her eyes almost disappeared, "Yes, yes, absolutely right!"

Jinli returned to the previous topic: "So you called me here this time to choose one of the three major magazines to shoot a cover for?"

Sui Lingfang smiled again: "Is it possible to choose two of the three major publications?"

Jinli was somewhat surprised: "Shooting two at the same time? One in September and one in October?"
I'd be willing, but I remember magazines have non-compete agreements, right? Would they break those rules for me?

Sui Lingfang tried her best to maintain a solemn expression, but the upturned corners of her mouth ruined her composure.

She pondered how to express herself, but felt that nothing could adequately describe her excitement, so she simply revealed the answer:
"Jinse wants you to shoot a double cover for August, while Nianhua and Fashion Trends have asked you to shoot their big covers for September. So you just need to choose between Nianhua and Fashion Trends. As for the double cover for Jinse, Jinse said they will help us coordinate it."

Sui Lingfang felt that the four major magazines must have discussed it beforehand, which is why they called together, and everyone knew each other's little schemes.

The magazine "Hua Yun" offered her that Jinli could shoot her solo cover in October, and they implied that they would break their competing agreement for Jinli's sake.

Unfortunately, Jinli didn't like "Hua Yun" at all and rejected it without even listening to the conditions Hua Yun proposed.

Sui Lingfang wasn't angry at all about it.

Jinli has a bit of a temper, but she thinks it's fine.

She wished Jinli would have a stronger temper, so she wouldn't seem like a person from the mortal world. She worried every day that Jinli would enter the Daoist path and forget the mortal world.

Jinli asked curiously, "Jinse magazine invited me to shoot a double cover for August. Did you reveal who I'll be paired with?"

In her memory, there didn't seem to be any particularly outstanding actresses emerging this year.

Sui Lingfang stopped smiling this time and looked at Jinli meaningfully: "The partners are a man and a woman. Your partner is Gu Cheng, so do you want to film?"

Jinli raised an eyebrow and said with interest, "Go ahead and film him. He's not afraid, so why should I be?"

Gu Cheng was really not afraid.

Instead, Zhang Guang received a call from the editor-in-chief of "Jinse" and hesitated for a while.

In addition, Fashion Trends and Youth magazines also called him, both asking whether Gu Cheng's major covers for September and October were confirmed.

No one stipulates that fashion magazines can only send the same invitation to one artist. Ordinary teams have Plan A and Plan B, let alone top fashion magazines like these.
