Schemes

Zhao Mi went to see the director of the subsidiary of the Diamond Entertainment regarding some upcoming deals. When she found the time appropriate, she cleverly brought forward Shen Yue's issue.

When the Manager Xu acquired about her, one of the assistants quickly said resentfully. "That Shen Yue is unable to be controlled. Not only that, but she has also been rejecting all the contracts our Manager painstakingly selected and brought to her."

"Indeed. Director Xu, you need to do something about her!" Another assistant said.

"She is getting more and more arrogant as time passes."

The director was a middle-aged experienced man. He would not by baseless words. He demanded reports of her progress. Zhao Mi had already prepared them a long time ago.

In the evening, they were presented to him.

When Manger Xu inspected the reports, he could not have but shake his head. The revenue she had been generating was minimum among all the young artistes under his branch.

"Such a waste..." He sighed.

Initially, he had high hopes for Shen Yue because of her beautiful natural looks and innate talent. However, despite staying at their branch for so long, she had been unable to have a markable accomplishment.

"I will ask Manager Zhao directly. Are there any hopes?" Director Xu looked up.

Zhao Mi had been working under him for quite some time. She had nurtured many talents including Jing XiaoXiao. So he trusted her choice.

"I will say it clearly. Although Shen Yue had been able to secure a role in a historical drama in the past, it had been too long since then."

"Then... what is your opinion for the future?" Director Xu asked astutely.

Zhao Mi observed that Director Xu appeared to be testing her. She sneered in her heart. Shen Yue, today I will end you once and for all!

As an old veteran in the game, she knew how to put her words wisely and be a game-changer.

"I have seen her practice acting once; in fact, the reason she is defiant and unwilling to is that she has lost her confidence. Her skills are no longer on the same level as before. She no longer has it in her." Within Zhao Mi eyes, there was no disdain. There was only disappointment.

Director Xu observed this. From this, he could tell even Zhao Mi was unhappy about the outcome of Shen Yue. If there was disdain and contempt in her eyes while speaking of Shen Yue, he would have run a deeper investigation before reaching a conclusion.

After all, in the entertainment industry, it was not unusual for a manager to hold back their artistes for personal benefits.

But since Zhao Mi hadn't said a single bad word about Shen Yue and she had only criticized her using professional words, Director Xu was convinced.

"Since it is so, we won't show her a leeway." Director Xu announced.

Zhao Mi was internally happy. However, she didn't let any happiness appear on her face in front of that astute man as she 'regretfully' nodded. "It appears to be the case."

Director Xu took out her contract from the cabinet and reviewed the terms. A moment later, he said. "Since she has not accepted any job you offered her, we can only—"

At that point, the door to the room was thrown open and Shen Yue walked in.

"Who said I haven't accepted any jobs?"
