The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 208 shouldn't be that bad, right?

"Is that so? I understand, I'll be careful... No need for that, but if I really do something, will you protect her... Okay, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Fan Bingbing snorted as she looked at her phone, then shifted her gaze to the car window. She was just Li Bingbing; even if that scoundrel had his eye on her, as long as she wasn't the system owner, she wouldn't be a threat.

But who provided that little pill Angela mentioned? Gao Yuanyuan? This must be some kind of new skill demonstration, right?
Fan Bingbing frowned slightly, feeling a bit strange. Why would Angela specifically call her to say this? Although they had some collaborations, they weren't that close, and Angela's actions clearly indicated that she was telling her…

Her face stiffened, and she finally realized that the woman was really holding a grudge. It was just a mockery to her face... a direct jest! She actually held a grudge and used this method to teach her a lesson. Wasn't that a bit petty?
You mean me too? Oh, never mind then.

Regardless, Fan Bingbing is certain that Angela has acquired a new skill, and it's quite different from her own "ox and horse" skill, even if she tried to conceal it in her description.

“What’s there to brag about?” she muttered, then felt a pang of worry about her lack of manpower.

Yes, the other party wasn't just implying that they had acquired a new skill, but also hinting at their level of control over their subordinates, which was really unpleasant.

Look at our side. Right now, the only one we can use is Huo Siyan. As for the others, let's not even talk about Angela. Taking advantage of the wrap-up of "The Dark Side," she pushed Tang Wei into the arms of that scoundrel and also unexpectedly hooked up with Li Xue, and Tang Wei tacitly agreed to it.

On Li Yunxin's side, just having Dong Qing as an example gives her a huge advantage. Every time that scoundrel mentions her, his tone is full of satisfaction. Not to mention, there's also Tu Jingwei, who's just like her, on the Zhulong Games side.

Besides, her three female secretaries haven't been touched yet, and more staff will be coming in soon...

Gao Yuanyuan is in a similar situation to herself, with only one person available. However, the problem is that her best friend was once the scoundrel's officially acknowledged girlfriend, making it entirely possible for 1+1>2.

It's okay, I'll definitely turn things around when I film "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" this time! As always, Fan Bingbing quickly cheered up, as if she had never been frustrated.

However, if possible, we should still sign a few more mature actresses, such as Yang Xue, Wan Qian, and Yin Tao, who are still quite young.

Well, of the seven beauties from the Central Academy of Drama, Zhang Ziyi is a rival, Mei Ting has powerful backers, and Qin Hailu is beneath her husband. That leaves only Zeng Li, Zhang Tong, and Hu Jing as potential targets, but...

Fan Bingbing frowned slightly again. Maybe she should discuss it with Li Yunxin. Gao Yuanyuan had already entrusted her to "train" the people, so it was acceptable for her to do the same.

"A true hero is one who can bend and stretch"... That doesn't seem right. Hmm, it should be the military strategy: you fight your way, I fight mine. As long as our core objective remains unchanged, other means are fine.

"What's wrong?" After making a decision in her heart, Fan Bingbing was surprised to find that Qin Lan, who was sitting next to her, was staring at her without blinking.

"N-nothing..." Startled, Qin Lan lowered her head, looking rather guilty.

Fan Bingbing was a little confused, but she didn't take it to heart. She figured she'd find out by doing a simulation when she had some free time.

However, considering her appearance and the subtle influence over the past year, coupled with the impact of her "role model" role, she should be able to be weighed.

It just so happens that Qin Fang, the future CCTV host who was mentioned by Gao Yuanyuan earlier and is from Chongqing and studying at Beijing Broadcasting Institute, will be interning next fall. After we bring her over and train her to be an assistant, Qin Lan might be able to be sent to that scoundrel's side.

Anyway, he's now his own signed artist, so it's only natural for a boss to assign an assistant to his own actor.

Fan Bingbing, engrossed in her thoughts, completely overlooked another purpose Angela had in telling her about the events of the night filming wrapped: she wanted to know if it was her doing, and if not, then who it could be.

After all, given the complexity of their relationship, it's already quite an achievement that they can cooperate. Why would they reveal to each other what the effects of the skills they've acquired are?

Of course, Fan Bingbing's disregard for this doesn't mean she doesn't care, but rather that there's no need for her to care. If it was done by one of them, unless they come forward and make a statement, they can only investigate slowly through mutual probing; if it was done by other undiscovered women with a system, they are determined to hide it, and even if they can pinpoint the source through their scoundrels, they can only slowly eliminate possibilities.

"As I always say, doing your own thing, and doing it steadfastly, is the right thing to do," Fan Bingbing said to herself after getting out of the car back at the company.

The worst-case scenario is the emergence of a new, organized woman, which would mean that the hard-won balance would be disrupted again, and interests would be redistributed.

But it shouldn't be that bad, right?
Then she was proven wrong.

"Mr. Fan, there's a Miss Liu waiting for you." The receptionist stood up and said as soon as she saw Mr. Fan.

"Miss Liu?" Young Master Fan asked, puzzled.

"She said she was from Red Boat Film Studio and had something to discuss with General Manager Fan." The receptionist's expression was very strange.

"Red Boat Film Studio?" Fan Bingbing repeated, then suddenly remembered, "That's the company Yang Rong, who played Huang Rong, signed with."

Initially, she actually wanted Yang Xue or Yin Tao to compete for Huang Rong, but after signing with that scoundrel, she naturally sent him in, which also served as a way to show her sincerity in the cooperation and help Li Xiaoran get Mu Nianci.

With Li Yunxin interfering, she stopped interfering and let Hongchuan Film Studio get away with it.

Now that they've sent people over, are they planning to cooperate? Oh right, she didn't hide anything while preparing "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber," and Yang Rong slept with that scoundrel.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but grit her teeth, then noticed the receptionist's expression: "Is there any other problem?"

"Hmm..." The receptionist sighed, "That Miss Liu is... very young, it seems... she's not even an adult yet."

"Not even an adult yet?" Fan Bingbing was stunned again. What was going on?

Then, she instantly realized something, her lips twitched, and her fists clenched.

"Is he in the lounge?" Fan Bingbing tried to keep her tone calm.

After receiving an affirmative answer, she told Qin Lan to go back to her office first, while she went to the lounge.

Before she even reached the door, she heard whispers from several cubicles: "I just went to see her, and it's true, she's a very pretty young woman, even prettier than the boss."

Fan Bingbing, who silently snorted in annoyance, became even more certain of her judgment.

Finally, she saw the little girl sitting on the sofa flipping through a magazine. Although she was dressed simply, in a short down jacket and jeans, and had a bare face, she was indeed a fairy in many imitations.

Fan Bingbing sighed, reached out and knocked on the door. The other person immediately looked up and smiled slightly, his tone filled with emotion and self-deprecation: "Hello, Mr. Fan, I've finally waited for you. I'm Liu Tianxian."

Upon hearing this self-introduction, Fan Bingbing wanted nothing more than to smack her on the head. What a load of crap! Everyone has a system, right? You think you're so special? You think the nickname "Fairy" is nice?!

However, on the surface she merely raised an eyebrow: "So, Miss Liu Tianxian, are you going to talk to me here, or in my office?"
