“You’re late for a full five minutes.” Lin Yunan scolded. “Do you not have any sense of ti?!”
Xia Ling was at a loss for words and wanted to ask: Mister, are you Wei Shaoyin’s long lost brother? He wanted to discipline others once he opened his mouth and had an explosive temper. They were really too similar!
Unfortunately, Lin Yunan could not hear her thoughts. He proceeded to point to a seat. “Sit.”
Sit?!
The subject was changed too quickly, and Xia Ling could barely keep up with his thoughts.
Seeing that she was still standing absentmindedly, Lin Yunan was annoyed. “Sit! Haven’t you heard ?! You’re from Skyart Entertainnt and do manual labor, so you need every possible opportunity to rest! Why are you still standing stupidly, did Skyart not teach you this?!”
Skyart Entertainnt... really did not teach her that.
Even Imperial Entertainnt never taught her that before!
Xia Ling was filled with tears as she silently questioned the heavens. Feng Kun, oh Brother Feng! What sort of person have you found for ?!
In fact, what she did not know was that seizing all opportunities to rest was the secret of many young people who had made a na for themselves at a young age. In the past, when she was in Imperial Entertainnt, she did not know that because Pei Ziheng favored her, and part of her Diva status was due to the company sparing no efforts in using its resources to promote her. Other Divas had to accept many jobs in a year and endure hardships to get to that position. The process was complicated, and they were usually exhausted. Every day, even sleeping ti was a luxury, and they made use of every opportunity to rest. When they could lie down, they would not sit. When they could sit, they would not stand.
However, she was different. She could rest well at ho and even went on holiday when she felt like it as long as she spent the rest of her ti on her music. She could release as little or as many songs as she liked and did not even need to accept endorsents. No matter what, Imperial Entertainnt would ensure that her position did not change.
When she joined Skyart Entertainnt, although Wei Shaoyin was a workaholic, too many things had happened that year. Coupled with her burnout, progress was not satisfactory but was still acceptable to her.
As for Luo Luo? Her company had never taught her the idea of “seizing all opportunities to rest.” Luo Luo was a newcor. She was rather talented and sang well, but she was far from the top and was not the desperate type, so she never thought of that step.
As such, Xia Ling gave Lin Yunan a strange look.
Lin Yunan raised his eyebrow. “What, have an opinion? Soon, your schedule will be very packed, so you better quickly get used to the fast-paced life. The best years for a female star are very short. My plan is to make you a Diva in the singing world in three years. At that ti, you will only be 21 years old; there will a lot of ti for you to pave your own future. You can decide to continue singing or enter the movie industry at the peak of your career.”
This was the reason why he was so decisive when accepting her.
She was talented and young. His plan for her to reach the top would be implented at an age younger than Li Er so that she would have a better chance of succeeding than her.
Xia Ling nodded in acknowledgnt.
Although this new manager’s attitude was not very friendly, he was very professional and had sufficient ambition. In her past life, Xia Ling debuted at age 17 and only achieved stardom when she was about 22 years old under the complete support of Imperial Entertainnt. As such, Lin Yunan’s titable was probably the physical limit of a person.
“Then, what should I do?” She asked.
She was at a loss regarding the next step. Her past life experience in Imperial Entertainnt was not much of a help because having Pei Ziheng as her backing was not any different from cheating. She did not believe that Dongyue Culture and Entertainnt would be able to give her any privileges.
Lin Yunan brewed her a cup of tea. Although he looked strict, he knew how to take care of his artistes well. This caused Xia Ling to have a better impression of him.
She took the cup of tea. As she drank the tea, she analyzed his office.
It was decorated very simple with a spacious desk, a whole wall of cabinets that stored various kinds of information, and the sofa that she was sitting on which was beside the cabinet. Besides these items, there was nothing else.
His office was well-organized, but it was not very personal and was very different from the feeling that he gave her.
Xia Ling could not help but look at him a few tis. Today, he was unlike the sloppy person she t at the bar. Instead, he wore a Givenchy shirt with matching cufflinks. Although he did not wear it properly as he rolled up one sleeve to his elbow and had even buttoned one of his buttons wrongly, there was an unconventional beauty about it.
Alright, he still could not be considered Wei Shaoyin’s long lost brother.
Given Ah Wei’s personality, he would not wear his shirt like that unless he received a death threat.
Xia Ling was quietly comparing both of them when she heard Lin Yunan say, “Where is your assistant?”
“Assistant?” She was startled for a while before replying, “Wei Wei was assigned to by Skyart. After leaving Skyart, I no longer have an assistant.”
Lin Yunan frowned. “Attendant? Makeup artist? Stylist? Publicity team?”
“All of them are Skyart’s...” Xia Ling did not know why, but she felt rather diffident.
Lin Yunan looked her up and down and said, “So, you didn’t bring anything and ca to Dongyue alone?”
“Is there sothing wrong?”
Lin Yunan sneered. “Can you use your brain and think about what the problem is? Ok, let’s talk about your assistant first. You didn’t bring anyone when you went out today? No artiste leaves without their assistant. This is called a display of splendor! Don’t use leaving Skyart temporarily as an excuse! You’re the one who wants to beco a Diva, so you have to be stricter than anyone else with yourself. Even if it’s for a few days, you can’t have no assistant!”
Xia Ling was rendered speechless after being reprimanded. She was negligent in this area.
Lin Yunan continued, “Stylist? Makeup artist? Your original team was not bad, you can continue to use them. Are they part of Skyart Entertainnt or an external company?”
“External company.” Xia Ling reported the na of the company.
Lin Yunan recorded it down. “Ok. I will contact them. Furthermore, I will find a makeup artist who will follow you around for jobs every day. If you know of anyone suitable, you can recomnd the person to .”
Xia Ling nodded. When she was in Imperial Entertainnt, she also had a makeup artist who would follow her around because it was convenient to touch up her makeup whenever she needed it. When she joined Skyart Entertainnt, due to Sister Mai Na’s limitations, she was not able to find her a makeup artist, but she did not mind it.
Although she was in Dongyue, was her status worthy of it?
She asked him about her inner doubts.
“You’re going to beco a Diva.” Lin Yunan seed very irritable but tried to be understanding, although her clueless expression caused him to think that she was ntally retarded. “Let’s address the display of splendor again. Today, you t Rong Ping. Did you notice how many people he had beside him? Although he was going to a managent company, he had at least three people accompanying him! When you appear for events, there should be more people accompanying you! Otherwise, using your eting with him as an example, you would lose out on montum because you did not bring anyone with you.”
