The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 244 Indifference (Bonus Chapter Today)
"I... don't quite understand what Miss Fan is saying..." Although Jiang Qinqin's expression changed slightly, her tone remained calm.

"Oh dear, although Sister Qinqin has freed herself, she's not completely free yet." Little Fan still had that same smiling look on her face.

Jiang Qinqin pursed her lips and didn't say anything more.

"Alright, alright, Xu should be in the wrong room by now, so I won't linger here any longer." Little Fan stood up. "But, Sister Qinqin should have experienced that kind of feeling and know what kind of effects it brings, right?"

Jiang Qinqin was clearly surprised, but after moving the corners of her mouth, she still didn't say anything.

Fan Bingbing remained unconcerned: "Only a few people know how to maintain this effect, and I happen to be one of them. So if Sister Qinqin has any thoughts, feel free to come and talk to me. After all... I also need allies."

After saying that, she left. Once she was outside and back in the hallway of her floor, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to Gao Yuanyuan with a smile: "Thank you so much, Sister Yuanyuan."

"No matter what, we're allies." Gao Yuanyuan smiled faintly. "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."

Without waiting for Fan Bingbing's reply, she went straight to her room, swiped her card, and went inside.

After watching Gao Yuanyuan's figure disappear, Fan Bingbing put away her smile and hummed somewhat reluctantly.

There was a reason why she brought Gao Yuanyuan to Jiang Qinqin's room tonight: on the one hand, to stop Jiang Qinqin from creating an opportunity for Tao Hong, and on the other hand, to test Gao Yuanyuan.

Although Fan Bingbing and Tao Hong don't have much interaction yet, they've both been categorized under her. So, Tao Hong's thoughts are irrelevant. From the moment Dong Qing agreed to help, the other party was already in her grasp.

Speaking of this, that scoundrel was really kind to Dong Qing. He didn't even tell her about the pills, let alone give them to her. He gave Dong Qing several of them. If she didn't have the simulation system, she probably wouldn't have noticed.

Although Xiao Fan knew that the thing was probably created by some skill and that it probably wouldn't have much effect on him, whether it would have any effect or not was one thing, and whether he would use it was another.

"I have to admit, Dong Qing is indeed very sensible." Back in his room, Fan Ye sighed.

Whether it was taking out a pill and secretly feeding it to Tao Hong, while also adding some sleeping pills, or using the excuse that Jiang Qinqin had just returned to the film crew and needed to adjust her room, arranging for Jiang Qinqin, who had already booked a room, to move out and letting Tao Hong move in alone—a trick she learned from the Legend of the Condor Heroes film crew—she did it all very well.

"I at least got second place," Fan Bingbing hummed, though she wasn't particularly concerned.

Of course! Getting it and not getting it are two different things. Besides, first place is what's really worth talking about. Who remembers second place? It's a pity that Gao Yuanyuan beat me to it.

Although Xiao Fan was certain that Gao Yuanyuan's methods were similar to those of the little pill, and that she had also gained new skills, speculation is still speculation. Therefore, Xiao Fan wanted to try to poach her directly to see how she would react.

However, she considered many possibilities, such as interrupting or guiding the conversation, or questioning herself afterward. But what she never expected was that Gao Yuanyuan would remain unmoved!
"Strange, are they fearless because they have nothing to fear, or are they all expendable pawns?" Little Fan was completely puzzled.

This put her in a difficult position, because she really wanted to take Jiang Qinqin under her wing. Women like her, who only had beauty and fame, were actually very easy to control, and having many of her own people was the right path.

Therefore, if feasible, she also plans to get her hands on both Jin Qiaoqiao and Chen Zihan in order to expand her faction.

Especially Jin Qiaoqiao, after simulating this woman's future methods, although some of them were not respectable, Fan Bingbing felt that they could still be used.

Anyway, I've already established myself in the industry, just not quite there yet. But I'm also a national idol, and compared to Gao Yuanyuan, who's just starting out in the film and television industry and has the title of a beautiful writer, I'm definitely a more worthy person to work for.
However, Gao Yuanyuan's nonchalant attitude put her in a dilemma. If she used it, she was afraid that Gao Yuanyuan had a backup plan; if she didn't use it, she was somewhat unwilling.

"Damn it, it all comes down to me not having that skill. That bastard really doesn't like me at all!" Little Fan gritted her teeth and slammed her fist on the table. "I feel like I'm being targeted!" Despite this, she recovered quickly. Anyway, this wasn't the first time this had happened, and it certainly wouldn't be the last. As long as she was still around, she wouldn't stop!
Unfortunately, she didn't know Gao Yuanyuan's thoughts, otherwise she wouldn't have cared so much.

"I never intended to do anything big; I just wanted to stir up trouble," Gao Yuanyuan murmured, looking at the documents in her hand.

"Hmm?" Zhang Lei, who shared a room with Zhang Lei, looked up.

"It's nothing. The conditions in Korea are alright. Lee Yoon-hyung has someone keeping an eye on things, so we won't suffer any losses." Gao Yuanyuan smiled. "However, we should try to release both books at the same time to generate hype... and it would be best if the TV series production did the same."

“Okay, Mr. Gao.” Zhang Lei immediately wrote it down in her notebook.

Although Gao Yuanyuan continued to look at the materials, her mind was still not on them. The reason she shared her second skill with Jiang Qinqin, Jin Qiaoqiao, and Chen Zihan through physical contact during the pre-shooting communication was not only because she wanted to win, but also to increase the difficulty for them.

After all, she had her own principles, so even if she knew what they were doing, she couldn't follow them.

However, not following suit doesn't mean you can't cause trouble or make things difficult for your opponents.

In other words, to use a somewhat inappropriate analogy, Fan Bingbing, Li Yunxin, Angela, and later Liu Qianqian, were all trying to pour dye into the pool, attempting to color the water in their own colors.

Gao Yuanyuan did not do that. She simply fenced off a section of land in the pool and built a dam to ensure that the water in that section of the pool was hers.

But that wasn't enough. They kept fighting over the dye, risking spilling it into their own little pond at any moment. So she simply started pouring the dye out of the pond as well.

On the one hand, it's a response to their behavior, and on the other hand, it's a way to divert their attention, thus better concealing one's true intentions.

So? So even though she shared her second skill with Jiang Qinqin, Jin Qiaoqiao, and Chen Zihan, she didn't care at all who they would follow.

It would be even better if they dispersed their efforts and poured them into their own areas, thus stirring up the waters even more.

only--

Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help but raise her head and glance at Zhang Lei, then gently shook her head.

Under the current circumstances, it's probably not enough for just myself, Li Xiaoran, and Zhang Yin.

However, neither the two literary assistants who are almost "trained" nor Guo Zhenni, who is still being "trained" and is being groomed to become a writer, are quite suitable.

Moreover, replicating the trio's situation would require a lot of energy, emotional investment, and careful management, which she is unlikely to do again, and there are few things worth doing so for.

Therefore, even if it's only slightly less desirable, with most of the relationships being entangled in his interests, he still invests a lot of emotion in her. So... no matter what, she's still better than those flashy and cheap women.

There's no rush, let's wait for Yin Yin... then we'll talk about it. Gao Yuanyuan thought this without any burden, after all, she was a bad woman.
