The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 629 Refusal
Although Gu Lanxi is already a mother, her child is still young, and she really has little experience in raising children.

Especially this "son," who is quite a big one, standing up a head taller than his mother, has already formed his own values ​​and beliefs. It's not so easy to guide him in the direction adults expect.

However, she also understands Anita Mui's dilemma.

I'm torn between striking a stone at a rat and breaking the vase! My own son is someone I can't be too lenient with or too harsh with; even with a thousand methods, I can only use a fraction of them.

Gu Lanxi wasn't the type to chat about her personal life with her employees when she had nothing better to do. Sister Mei's words were tactful; she wanted to hear Gu Lanxi's opinion, but she really just wanted Gu Lanxi's help.

What is it that she can do but Anita Mui cannot?

Gu Lanxi established her investment studio at the age of sixteen and signed Fei Yunxiao. Over the years, she has built up a large team of people under her, and she is quite self-aware of being a leader.

He's done a lot of things for people, as long as they weren't too difficult.

From signing personal documents for employees' friends and family to paying down payments for employees' wedding homes, they have an excellent reputation in this regard.

After all, there are a lot of things going on at home, so no one can work properly.

This is someone we're paying a high salary to support; if she can't perform at her best, then she'll be at a huge loss.

Especially since the person contacting her now is her agent with whom she has a good working relationship, Gu Lanxi certainly couldn't pretend she didn't hear it.

He touched his chin and began to think seriously.

This child isn't hers either; whatever she says or does, she has to consider all aspects.

"What are your thoughts on your son's career planning, Sister Mei? What are his plans?"

Gu Lanxi didn't want to go through all that trouble only to end up as the villain.

"As for me, I just hope that he will abide by the law, have a proper job, and live a peaceful life in the future."

Even in Beijing, Mei Jie belongs to the high-income group.

Even though I used to work for Xiao Han, I had a lot of extra income every year in addition to my fixed salary.

It can be said that he has already achieved great success.

It's normal to have such thoughts when a child is of average ability and you simply can't raise them.

This is true love for children.

Gu Lanxi's tone became even gentler, and she asked her as if they were having a casual chat, "Don't you want him to enter the entertainment industry?"

My mother is a top agent in the entertainment industry, managing the most popular female artist in the Chinese entertainment circle. The female artist's husband is also a superstar who has become a sensation. If she wants to promote her son, she can just let a little bit slip through her fingers at the beginning. She doesn't even need to say hello to her.

Besides, Mei Xingjian is a good-looking guy, tall, and as long as he's willing to work hard and his acting skills are passable, with the help of family and friends, he can easily make it big.

It can be said that this path is the most promising and easiest for him.

Mei Xue had done the same thing before, but now she has changed her mind. It seems that her son's desire to take a shortcut south has somewhat frightened her.

"This kid is too naive. He can be easily fooled. This circle is really not suitable for him."

Sister Mei sighed deeply.

If her child were even slightly more reliable, she wouldn't be so disheartened.

She has her own job and is a very career-oriented woman; she can't possibly spend all her time revolving around her good-for-nothing son.

Gu Lanxi understood after hearing what she said.

There was a big incident a while ago where many celebrities were tricked by acquaintances into going to the south. They either didn't come back or returned in a state of near-death experience, making it impossible for them to live a normal life.

Mei Xue only has this one son, who is practically her lifeline. Her son is obsessed with fame and doesn't care about anything else, which has obviously frightened her quite a bit. That's why she sought help from a more intelligent and well-connected boss to find a stable path for her son.

Gu Lanxi has offered career planning advice to many people before, but this is the first time she has made plans for someone who is a poor student.

To be honest, the industries she's familiar with all have a certain barrier to entry...

Ultimately, she was a loving mother. She couldn't help but think that if Tuantuan couldn't be helped in the future, she would also have to face this issue. It would be good to accumulate some experience now.

"What you think doesn't matter. He's almost an adult, he has his own brain, and he can walk on his own. Even if you're heartless and tie him up, if he's determined, it won't change anything. So the important thing is what he thinks."

Mei Xue felt that she had been sighing so much lately that it could blow up a cow.

“Sigh, he treats me like an enemy now, how could he confide in me? I have some guesses, but kids this age are fickle, I can’t say for sure.”

Gu Lanxi is so busy, unless it's something really difficult, Mei Xue will handle it herself and won't bother her.

"Would you like me to talk to him when you have time?"

Sister Mei happily agreed, but when she came to pick her up the next day to meet the director, she told her that she had talked to her son the night before, and Mei Xingjian was unwilling to talk to her.

"He said it's always difficult for people to empathize with those in different situations, and he'd rather talk to Professor Lu..."

Gu Lanxi was so angry she laughed!

So she agreed to help, but the young man looked down on her?

Moreover—"How come my teacher Lu is in the same situation as him?" Lu Nanting was holding the child and seeing Gu Lanxi off when he heard this and couldn't help but laugh: "The young man has quite a few ideas."

Sister Mei looked embarrassed: "I had a good talk with him last night, and he admitted it. He said the reason he was in such a hurry was because his girlfriend got into a good university, and her parents forced them to break up after they found out. He wanted to achieve something to win back her. Even if he wasn't good at studying, at least he had to earn a high income."

"That's a good idea!"

Having someone you like and still wanting to be with them for a long time after all these years, Lu Nanting thought that what Xiaomei said made a lot of sense.

"In this respect, I do have more in common with him."

However, it wasn't that he couldn't concentrate on his studies. Back then, he forced himself to get into a good university and used the opportunity to get closer to the person he liked, until they finally got together.

Mei Xingjian is truly bad at studying.

Since he started dating and reformed, he gets up early every day to go to school, listens attentively in every class, and even hired a top scorer in the college entrance examination for one-on-one tutoring, but his grades still can't improve.

He might still feel very inferior right now...

Tuantuan hugged her favorite comfort blanket and listened quietly to them talk, squeaking the whistle in one corner of the blanket as she listened.

Lu Nanting lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then pressed the small whistle. Tuantuan immediately stopped and looked at him.

Lu Nanting patted her head with her little bun and nodded to Sister Mei: "Fortunately, I'm free today. Have him come over, and I'll talk to him."

Gu Lanxi was in a hurry to leave. Seeing that they had already made arrangements, and feeling at ease leaving the matter to Lu Nanting, she decided to avoid trouble and left with her bag.

When he returned home that evening and asked about it during dinner, Lu Nanting told him the rest of the story.

“Most minor actors don’t earn as much as internet celebrities these days. Xiao Xu is doing very well, so I asked him to help me out. His flight was at 2 PM, and he called around 4 PM to say he’d picked him up. He’s probably already up in the mountains eating free-range chicken by now.”

Xiao Xu was Lu Nanting's former assistant. He was always very reliable, but he couldn't leave his family alone, so he had to go back to his hometown to raise chickens in order to fulfill his filial duty.

Later, Gu Lanxi opened an MCN company and began to cultivate rural internet celebrities. He specially arranged a team to help him manage the daily life of chicken farm owners. Because the results were very good, they would personally come over during holidays to deliver free-range chickens to their family.

When Gu Lanxi was in postpartum confinement, she also received two baskets of local eggs delivered to her door by Xiao Xu.

I didn't expect the problem to be solved so easily.

Gu Lanxi was quite surprised: "How did you convince him?"

"How else do you need to persuade him? It's very simple, even a fool could figure it out. Once he goes abroad to work, what if his girlfriend changes her mind after a while? After all, his girlfriend has a good personality and is good at studying, so it's impossible for her not to have suitors. Moreover, even if he becomes famous because of his girlfriend, if he exposes his sister-in-law, his girlfriend will definitely be cyberbullied to the point of wanting to die. Also, if he goes there because of his girlfriend and nothing happens, that's fine, but if something happens, even if they get together in the future, don't expect a good relationship between his mother and mother-in-law. Don't be fooled by how much he argues with Sister Mei; in fact, he still loves his mother very much."

Lu Nanting shrugged: "In this situation, he will accept any reliable advice given."

"It's a sudden pity that my mother passed away so early."

"how?"

Gu Lanxi gave her a thumbs up: "If she were still here, you two would definitely have a good relationship. With your emotional intelligence, that's for sure!"

She brought up this topic as soon as the conversation turned to mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships, and Lu Nanting gave her two big eye rolls, but Gu Lanxi wasn't angry.

Because she had already started to look forward to it, wondering what would happen to Xiaomei in the future?
I hope everything goes well this time.

Speaking of parenting, Er Mao mentioned a small incident while playing with the children today.

Once I took them both to the amusement park. The clown was handing out balloons. Unlike his sister, who was more outgoing and would ask for them, he stood in front of the clown early, looking up and waiting. In the end, the clown gave him a little horse that was twisted out of a balloon.

He really liked the little horse. Even though he played with it until the afternoon and the balloons had all burst, he gave the extra ones to passing children, but kept one for himself.

A child dropped the item while he wasn't holding it properly, picked it up, and refused to return it. He immediately chased after the child to get it back.

The child was unwilling to return it.

I quickly went over to the child and said, "This balloon belongs to your older brother. He likes it very much and doesn't want to give it away, so please return it to him, okay?"

Then the baby felt wronged and wanted to cry, but I didn't soften my heart. I firmly stood up for my son and helped him get his beloved stick and balloon back.

I'm rather selfish. I have no obligation to comfort other people's children, nor do I have the right to deal with my own child's toys. They belong to him. If he doesn't want to give them away, of course he can keep them. If someone else takes them, of course he can ask for them back. If he can't get them back, of course I should help him.

It happened a long time ago, but Er Maomao still remembers it very clearly.

He said he was very happy, but couldn't explain why.

My sister said it's because Mom always puts our feelings first, and she's always on our side.

Er Mao nodded in agreement.

Then they praised me a lot.

Hey.

I'm very, very happy.

But I know why I'm happy.

Love has been answered.
