Huayu: Female celebrities are looking for treasures in me

"I was just happy to have gained another great general."

Zhang Li sat up straight and poured Yang Mi a cup of his homemade peach blossom wine.

"Don't lie to me." Yang Mi pursed her red lips slightly: "I always feel like you have ulterior motives."

"Really not," Zhang Li shook his head in denial.

She didn't mean any harm; she just felt that Yang Mi's next ten years would be quite eventful.

There are many good works, including the phenomenal TV series "Palace" and "Swords of Legends", the huge hit "Eternal Love", as well as other blockbuster works such as "Beauty's Rival in Palace", "Beijing Love Story", "Legend of Fuyao" and "The Interpreter".

Many of the films have been successful, but most of them have received poor reviews, and some could even be described as flops.

His film career has been a series of failures, which in a sense can also be considered a continuous failure as an actor.

Even if her acting skills are good, if her work is bad, it's still bad.

She has consistently been on the Forbes China Celebrity List.

He seems to have been quite successful as a boss, having launched the careers of several artists.

However, the controversies surrounding him are clearly mostly negative; those who like him love him very much, while those who hate him...
What surprised him most was that he won the "Golden Broom" award three times.
The paths she and Bingbing took were indeed quite similar.

“You better not have one.” Yang Mi’s eyes were full of suspicion: “We only have an intention to sign a contract now, and I can back out before next year.”

Her current contract is with Rongxinda, and the agreement she signed with Zhang Li is a shareholding agreement for "Yang Mi Studio".

This agreement will take effect after the contract expires next year.

After that, Yang Mi's management business was naturally handled by her studio.

However, a new agent needs to be found, or Zhao Ruoyao can be brought to the studio.

It's called an expression of intent, but it's really just waiting for the effective date.

However, if Yang Mi is unwilling, this studio can be deregistered in advance.

"No, I'm just thinking about what kind of path to plan for you." Zhang Li's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Don't overlap with Tian Tian, ​​Yi Fei, and Li Ying, or at least partially overlap, to avoid resource conflicts."

"I'm planning to mold you into the four little actresses of the post-85 generation."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi's pupils contracted slightly.

The "Four Little Flowers of '85" may very well become the "Four Little Flowers of Mainland China" in the future, and even become the fourth of the "Four Dan" among the "Double Bing" and "Four Dan" (referring to four actresses from the same generation, Bingbing, Bingbing, and Bingbing respectively) of future leading actresses.

Female celebrities of this caliber are enough to become a mark and symbol of an era.

Zhang Li actually wanted to take all four.

She didn't know whether to call the man arrogant or overly confident.

However, Yang Mi didn't dwell on this point. Instead, she asked with interest, "We're the Four Little Actresses, so what about your Shi Shi?"

“Shi Shi belongs to Tangren Media. I can provide her with resources, but I can’t promote her excessively. I can control the degree of this.” Zhang Li smiled calmly.

Normally speaking, Liu Shishi will indeed be one of the four most promising young actresses in mainland China, as selected by the internet and media, along with Qi Wei and several other actresses, as well as Tang Yan, who is not born in the 85s.
Among the actresses born in 85, many are qualified to be selected as leading ladies, but Liu Yifei is more like a contestant from last season.

Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, and Liu Yifei have consistently maintained their top-tier status.

But that was the original trajectory of development.

This time, it's his turn to promote someone.

For Liu Yifei, the focus is on creating successful movies and songs to ensure she remains a top star and never fades among the post-85 generation of actresses. When the internet age arrives, she can "descend to earth" by starting filming TV series and web dramas ahead of time to solidify her popularity and fame.

Yang Mi will be given all the successful projects, but she will resolutely refuse to act in any projects that might negatively impact her reputation. At the same time, she will focus on improving her acting skills and take on roles in films that will recognize her talent. She will pursue both career paths.

As for Zhao Liying, it's simply a matter of bringing forward her development from 13 to 10, "unleashing" her acting skills while also increasing her exposure in films.

Jing Tian is rich, so she was able to avoid participating in all the "big productions" that she originally planned to be involved in, and instead have all the good TV series and movies featuring actresses born in the 85s and 90s, such as Zheng Yuxun and Zhou Huangya, be given to her.

She has fame, she has works, and she's a well-rounded individual in film, television, and music.

These four women will be in a league of their own among the post-85 generation of actresses.

Who can compare?

"The previous era had the Four Heavenly Kings."

"I have these four cards in my hand."

"tsk"

While pondering, Zhang Li thought of post-90s artists again.

He's already secured one of Nezha's contracts, and Dilraba is also a good one. He'll find an opportunity to get Yang Mi's studio to sign her, so she'll be considered one of his people.

"I'm so tired of winning."

Zhang Li was in a great mood and kept putting food on Yang Mi's plate.

Now that they're considered one of their own, Yang Mi is even more unscrupulous in demanding resources.

I want TV drama scripts, I want movie scripts, and I also want songs.

"Here you go, here you go, all of it is for you."

"Once you sign the contract next year, both the TV series and the movie will start filming, and I'll write the theme song for you too."

We'll film "Scarlet Heart" with Liu Shishi in the second half of this year, and it will air during next summer's season.

We will start filming "Palace" at the beginning of next year. The costumes, props and other aspects will be improved compared to the original version. It can be used as the closing drama of 10 or the opening drama of 11.

The movie will also start production next year, shooting an upgraded version of "Far Cry".

As for the song, "The Power of Love" is a must-listen; it's a phenomenal single.

Zhang Li readily agreed.

But Yang Mi was still unhappy and said irritably, "You really are a qualified businesswoman."

"How so?" Zhang Li raised an eyebrow.

"I'll only give it to you if you sign a contract." Yang Mi crossed one leg over her knee and kicked Zhang Li's knee with her stockinged foot: "I thought that because of our relationship, you would let me see it."

Zhang Li wrapped her legs around Yang Mi's waist and chuckled, "You weren't wrong about that. I'll definitely show myself to you."

"I wrote an original TV drama script, similar to 'Scarlet Heart,' but the development direction is completely different."

"I also wrote a theme song for this TV series, which was tailor-made for you." "Furthermore, I tailor-made a movie script for you."

"If you want to know the details, I can tell you later."

"But once you sign the contract, we'll give you the specific script and such."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi's eyes lit up even more.

Zhang Li is really showing his sincerity.

She was very satisfied.

"Tell me these two stories quickly."

As she spoke, she forgot to pull her feet away.

However, it was clear that her power was insignificant compared to Zhang Li's.

"Then let me tell you about it."

Since there was time to eat, Zhang Li didn't mind saying a few more words.

The great poet of the Tang Dynasty, one of the four beauties of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, had three of them as his girlfriends.

Only Yang Mi remains. When she's in love, she's incredibly infatuated, but when she's sober, she's incredibly clear-headed.

His attitude is to let things take their course.

"This wine is quite good, do you have any left?"

A few hours later, Yang Mi, looking slightly tipsy, asked Zhang Li for some wine.

“This is fruit wine that I brewed myself; it’s not something that’s easy to get,” Zhang Li said, shaking his head in refusal.

It's not that he's stingy, but that this kind of wine is not easy to brew.

The fruits, water, and liquor used are all carefully selected.

His mastery of this brewing technique also involved an element of luck.

"How about you help me brew wine in the future, and I can promise to give you a batch?" Zhang Li said after thinking for a moment.

The wine he's making doesn't require much technical skill; the recipe is more important.

However, he believes that any collaboration can evolve with the times.

At his current level, he is not capable of making any improvements.

But if Yang Mi and other women were to elevate the brewing technique to its pinnacle or even a transcendent level...
This allows for the production of sufficiently excellent fruit wine.

“Okay~” Yang Mi readily agreed.

She didn't want to refuse any reasonable or justifiable help Zhang Li needed.

After all, he can "cheat" his way through life and also get along with Zhang Li.

Although she didn't want to be Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi's "sisters".

However, it's fine to maintain a relationship with Zhang Li before finding a boyfriend.

"Let's go. I'll have someone take you back."

Zhang Li and Yang Mi got into his car.

Several tens of minutes later, the car stopped on a street in the capital.

Yang Mi and Zhang Li got out of the car one after the other. The former asked with a slightly playful tone, "Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"

"With my uncle and aunt here, it's not convenient, is it?" Zhang Li shook his head and refused.

What's wrong with just friends going to Yang Mi's house for a visit?
"I thought you were really brave, tearing my stockings, but it turns out you're nothing special." Yang Mi clicked her tongue.

Zhang Li: “.”

He wasn't drunk, so why was he talking nonsense?

"Am I going to be bored at home for the next six months?" Yang Mi asked, her eyes filled with anticipation.

“I know what you mean.” Zhang Li chuckled, thinking of the phone call Zhao Liying had given him. “The role in ‘If You Are the One 2’ will be yours.”

"Even if you break your contract and don't sign with Universal, it's no big deal to give this role to you given our relationship."

"That's more like it, he's my good junior." Yang Mi's face lit up with a bright smile.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Yang Mi waved gently, turned around, and walked into the alley gate.

Zhang Li got back into the car and said casually, "Back to the film set."

Yang Mi crossed her arms, carried her bag, walked into the house, and went straight to her room.

"What a bad man."

Sitting on the bed, looking at the many cuts and nicks on her feet, Yang Mi's face flushed even more.

I was just excited by the movie plot and my movements were a bit exaggerated.

He showed no mercy to the woman, and even tickled himself.

He attacked me under the table while I was still eating.

There is absolutely no male virtue involved.

snort!
Yang Mi selectively ignores the fact that she was the one who made the first move.

Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Honey, what was that outside just now?"

Yang Mi's mother pushed open the door and walked in.

Her gaze fell on the stockings, and she suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

"Tone it down a bit."

Yang Mi: ? (End of Chapter)
