Film and Television World Life Record

Liang Shuang: "What do you mean, 'I'?! I'm hanging up. I'll settle the score with you when I get back."

She angrily hung up the phone, and looking at Li Mu beside her, she couldn't help but blush. Fortunately, she was already used to embarrassing herself in front of Li Mu.

Taking a deep breath and suppressing his anger, he said, "Could you drive me to the brand's office? I need to get to the bottom of this. Why should we give away all our hard work for free? We have to pay them."

Li Mu smiled and nodded: "No problem, let's go! I wish you a successful start."

Seeing Li Mu's somewhat malicious smile, Liang Shuang seemed to be provoked and said angrily, "Don't be so smug. Just you wait and see, I'm going to make sure I get my advertising fee back. Let whoever wants to maintain a brand like that stay; I'm not going to give away my hard work for free!"

Li Mu gave a thumbs-up and said, "That's awesome! I'm rooting for you, keep it up!"

Liang Shuang rolled her eyes at him and hurriedly got into the car.

More than half an hour later, the two arrived at the location and found Cindy, who was in charge of Weibo promotion in the publicity department.

"Hello, Ms. Liang!"

Hello, Sister Cindy!

After exchanging greetings, Liang Shuang skipped the formalities and got straight to the point: "Sister Cindy, I'll get straight to the point. I don't know how Duan Jiabao negotiated with you, but I can't let my hard work and expertise go to waste. Advertising can't be free!"

Hearing Liang Shuang say this, Cindy couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ms. Liang, you and your agent are putting on an act together! One of you apologizes and says you're giving us free advertising, while the other is now coming to me for money. Are you two kidding me?"

"Apologize!" Liang Shuang's expression was not good. What exactly did Duan Jiabao do behind her back that involved an apology? Why should she apologize?

Suppressing his anger, he asked疑惑地问道, "Apologize for what? Who's apologizing to whom? Why should we apologize?"

Cindy glanced at her: "Ms. Liang, stop pretending to be stupid. You misspelled our brand name in the ad you posted. Don't tell me you didn't know. The ad is still on your Weibo. You can't deny it, can you?"

As she spoke, Cindy pointed to the company logo and English name posted on the wall: "Ms. Liang, take a good look, this is our company name, is it correct as you posted it on Weibo?"

Liang Shuang was immediately speechless.

"I......"

Cindy continued, "I heard from your agent that you're still in school and your English isn't very good, otherwise you wouldn't have misspelled such a simple word."

Liang Shuang lowered her head, unable to speak.

Cindy continued, "It's not just a matter of misspelling the brand name; you're wearing shoes from another brand, and your jewelry is too flashy. At first glance, it looks like you're promoting Cartier! We're not happy with any of that."

"Your agent kept apologizing to us. I only agreed to give the ad for free and not pursue your responsibility because I saw how much the young girl cared and how hard it was for her."

"You need to remember that we signed a contract. I can seek reasonable compensation from you. Are you still going to ask me for advertising fees?"

Liang Shuang blushed deeply at what she said.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you!"

After saying that, Liang Shuang grabbed Li Mu and hurriedly ran out as if fleeing.

Li Mu watched quietly, neither interrupting nor interfering. This experience was a good tempering for the usually proud Liang Shuang, helping her to refine her character and reflect on her past actions.

Later in the series, after experiencing many things, Liang Shuang's personality and the impression she gave people did indeed improve a lot. Even now, Liang Shuang's temperament has softened considerably, and she's not as prickly as before.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, seeing Liang Shuang's red-rimmed eyes, Li Mu opened the car door and said, "Get in!"

Liang Shuang had embarrassed herself in front of Li Mu, and was initially ashamed, but seeing his calm expression, she became a little angry.

"Don't you even try to comfort me? Do you think I embarrassed myself just now?!"

Li Mu pinched her cheek: "I've seen you all before, do you think I would care about this?"

Liang Shuang's face immediately turned a little red.

"You bastard, you always bully me. You have no idea how embarrassing that was just now."

Li Mu said, "If you know it's embarrassing, then remember this lesson and be more careful next time. Also, your bad temper has just gotten a little better recently, so don't let it resurface as soon as you have a little more money."

"In addition, take a longer-term view and don't be blinded by immediate gains. As a college student, being able to get into South China University of Finance and Economics proves that you are very smart."

"With such a brilliant mind, why spend all your time thinking about how to make money and become famous? Isn't that a waste? Read more books, learn more knowledge, and cultivate yourself. These things, unlike fame and popularity, will never go out of style and will allow you to go further and more steadily in the future!"

Liang Shuang nodded silently: "I understand."

Li Mu said, "Get in the car, let's go back first."

Liang Shuang: "Mm!"

……

The next day, in the girls' dormitory, Duan Jiabao stared wide-eyed at Liang Shuang, who was studying English.

"Liang Shuang, what's wrong with you...?"

Liang Shuang glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "Learning English and taking the CET-6 exam? That won't work!"

Duan Jiabao nodded quickly: "Okay, okay! Sister Shuang can definitely handle it, I fully support you."

Liang Shuang snorted, her face hardening, and suddenly asked, "Duan Jiabao, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Duan Jiabao feigned ignorance and asked, "What did you say?"

Liang Shuang said, "I went to see Cindy yesterday. Why didn't you just tell me the truth? Instead, you kept it from me. You have no idea how embarrassed I was yesterday."

Duan Jiabao said embarrassedly, "I didn't mean it. I was afraid that if I said it, it would dampen your enthusiasm and discourage you."

Liang Shuang said, "Am I that fragile, afraid of this little setback? I want to know, you told me you'd charge me for advertising, but promised them it would be free. What about the advertising fees? How are you going to explain that?"

Duan Jiabao lowered his head and said, "I didn't think that much about it. I just thought I'd pay for it myself and that would be the end of it."

Liang Shuang was speechless for a moment; the way the rich second generation handled things was indeed extraordinary.

Remembering Li Mu's words, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and continued, "This matter was indeed caused by my negligence. It's all thanks to you, Da Bao, that it was resolved so quickly."

"However, I still have a question. This accident isn't a big deal, but it's not a small one either. If the brand wants to hold us accountable, it could be quite troublesome. How did you convince them to agree?"

Duan Jiabao hesitated for a moment, then looked at Liang Shuang's unquestionable gaze before finally speaking: "Well, Cindy is a fan of the four-character name. I promised to give her a set of limited edition merchandise, so she won't mind."

Liang Shuang was speechless; money really is everything.

"Thank you, Da Bao. Although I don't agree with what you did, you meant well for me. I'll let it go this time."

"From now on, whatever happens, you must discuss it with me before making a decision, understand?"

Duan Jiabao nodded quickly and said, "I understand. I will definitely not act on my own again."

Liang Shuang finally felt relieved. She glanced at Duan Jiabao and realized she had no better choice than to continue cooperating with her.

Chapter 339 Conflict

In the following days, as if to make up for his mistake, Duan Jiabao tried hard to get Liang Shuang into a big event to consolidate her popularity and status.

I just discovered that the well-known brand Caslan is preparing to hold a large-scale brand event in Shenzhen. They've invited not only some famous beauty bloggers, but also some celebrities from the film and television industry.

For a newly famous internet celebrity like Liang Shuang, this kind of event is a good way to stabilize her status and popularity.

After checking some information, Duan Jiabao immediately went to discuss it with Liang Shuang. After what happened last time, she dared not make decisions on her own now.

Inside the dormitory, Liang Shuang was exercising. Her right leg was raised high, in a split position against the wall, her two long, fair, and shapely legs forming a straight line. Straight and taut, with a curvaceous figure, a wasp waist, and a pert bottom, she was breathtakingly beautiful.

Duan Jiabao glanced at her posture and hesitated before saying, "Liang Shuang..."

Liang Shuang turned to look at her: "What is it? Speak!"

Duan Jiabao said, "It's like this, the well-known brand Caslan will be holding a large-scale brand event in Shenzhen soon, and has invited many famous beauty bloggers and celebrities. I'd like to sign you up to give it a try?"

Liang Shuang's eyes lit up: "Really? Is there any hope?"

Duan Jiabao nodded reluctantly and said, "Yes, you have a good image and you're already quite well-known, so the chances are very high."

Liang Shuang said, "Then you should sign up and give it a try. If you really succeed, I'll treat you to a big meal."

Duan Jiabao's face lit up with joy: "Don't worry, I'll definitely help you close the deal."

……

Having made a boast to Liang Shuang, Duan Jiabao then contacted Caslan officials and called to register.

However, after dialing the number and explaining the situation, the person on the other end said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Duan, I have some news to tell you. We haven't finalized the venue for our event at Yingfu Center Plaza yet. I apologize, but we are no longer inviting beauty bloggers."

Duan Jiabao was taken aback and asked in surprise, "You haven't agreed on the venue?"

As soon as he said that, something suddenly occurred to him: "Where is the venue you mentioned? Yingfu Center?"

The person on the other end said, "Yes, because we couldn't reach an agreement, I'm sorry, we're no longer extending invitations."

Duan Jiabao said, "It's alright, it's alright!"

After hanging up the phone, she felt that the name Yingfu Center sounded familiar. Wasn't it the property of her parents' friend, Uncle Wang?

In that case, getting one spot shouldn't be a problem!

Thinking of this, Duan Jiabao took out his phone again and started dialing.

"Hello, Uncle Wang, this is Da Bao."

"A classmate of mine wants to participate in an event that Caslan is hosting at the Yingfu Centre..."

"Thank you, Uncle Wang, you've gone to so much trouble."

After hanging up the phone, Duan Jiabao smiled smugly, "Done!"

This time, Duan Jiabao was much more cautious. Through Uncle Wang's connections, he successfully secured a spot and prepared all the necessary documents before going to Liang Shuang to report the good news.

"Liang Shuang, the spot is secured."
