Chapter 418: There’s Trouble

Gong Zhi’s acting skills were superb. Coupled with her stardom and great reputation, she would make a good partner and this would be a win-win situation.

“There’s no suitable role for her in this upcoming script.” Shen Xi thought about it for a moment and continued, “But I do have a blockbuster in my hand that’s suitable for her.”

Although Yuan Yu was aware that Shen Xi was talented, he was still shocked. “You write scripts for movies now?”

Shen Xi thought, ‘I have many talents, but I’m afraid you’ll be stupefied if I unleash all of them at once…’

Instead, she just nodded and said vaguely, “It’s still in the conceptual stage. There are only two months left till the college entrance exams, and I have to attend the recording of ‘National Idol’, so the writing progress is definitely slow. I can probably only give you the script after the exams.”

Her schedule was cramped and she could not burn herself out. She was after all a human being, so she needed to take a break to catch her breath.

“Alright. Don’t overwork yourself. Money is inexhaustible. I’m still here to support you.” Yuan Yu looked at Shen Xi with some heartache.

No matter how much energy one had, there would be a time when it would be used up. Yuan Yu was afraid Shen Xi would collapse from overworking if she pushed herself too hard.

“Got it.” Shen Xi looked at him and smiled brightly before changing the subject. “Do you know that in front of our office, there’s a…”

“A woman who drives a sports car loaded with chrysanthemums?” Yuan Yu finished her sentence and added, “She’s been at the entrance for the past three days. At first, she said she’s a fan of He Pei, so He Pei came to see her privately and gave her a signed photo and poster. The next day, she showed up again saying that she’s switched camps and now likes Qi Xiu. She’s probably a rich girl that doesn’t have anything better to do than chase her idols!”

Shen Xi wanted to say ‘Yeah, you’re right. She really has nothing better to do than chasing idols…’ However, she was not just any rich girl so she told him, “Brother, she’s actually from the Fu family, aunt to the Fu brothers, Fu Junqiu.”

Yuan Yu was drinking water and almost spat out a mouthful. His voice rose an octave. “What did you just say?”

“I said, she’s the aunt of the Fu brothers, Fu Junqiu.” Shen Xi repeated.

Yuan Yu asked, “You know her?”

“I met her once.” Shen Xi nodded and continued, “I pitied her since she’s been waiting at the entrance, so I brought her up with me to find Qi Xiu.”

Just as her words dropped, Yuan Yu stood up suddenly and walked out while saying, “There’s trouble!”

Shen Xi was puzzled. “Big Brother?”

Yuan Yu paused in his footsteps. “Fu Junqiu is the President of the Fu family’s entertainment company. She’s not interested in company management, but she likes to be a talent scout. What she likes most is to poach other entertainment companies’ artists that have potential!”

Shen Xi was stunned for a moment. She thought Fu Junqiu was just a fangirl. She did not expect her to be a scout! However, Shen Xi was not worried about Qi Xiu. “Big Brother, Qi Xiu won’t go with her.”

She thought, ‘I knew it! How can a member of the Fu family be just a simple-minded fangirl?’

Yuan Yu said, “You believe in him that much? You know the disparity between the Fu family’s entertainment company and ours. If you were him, would you not budge?”

The Fu family’s entertainment company was one of the entertainment giants in Country M. It was not about the number of artists under their wing, but their resources and publicity. Whoever they promoted was sure to be popular.

Everyone knew that as long as they were discovered and signed with the Fu family’s entertainment company, they were halfway into the ranks of international superstars.

However, it had been five years since their inception, but they had only signed one Chinese artist, which was Fu Qingye.

This company was specifically set up for Fu Qingye. ‘Well… What else could a rich and well-connected family do to support their own?’

“If you don’t believe me, go take a look.” Shen Xi smiled confidently and widely. “Qi Xiu’s here to stay. It’s not because of the company, but because of me.”

Yuan Yu was still worried. It was difficult to get such a talented Music Director that could take on the work of an entire team by himself. He was such a workaholic who especially liked to work overtime every single day. If someone poached him, it would be a huge loss to them.

Qi Xiu soon followed Yuan Yu over and told Shen Xi about his encounter. He felt a little disappointed. “She mentioned she was also interested in me and wanted me to continue working hard, but the person she wanted is Chairman Shen’s music composer, Xixi.”

Fu Junqiu took little interest in Qi Xiu. Her main purpose of coming here was not for Qi Xiu, but for Xixi.

Shen Xi froze for a moment and did not expect this. “You didn’t expose me, right?”

Qi Xiu said, “Of course not! I am not a traitor…”

However, the conditions Fu Junqiu offered were indeed tempting. Any normal person would have joined her company without hesitation.

Qi Xiu was loyal and wanted to repay Shen Xi’s kindness. He was a man who would pledge his loyalty to her and would follow her for life as long as she did not drive him away.

Shen Xi smiled at him with satisfaction and looked at Yuan Yu. “First, Fu Qingli came over to talk about cooperation, then Fu Junqiu came over to find Xixi. Do they have the same purpose?”

“I’m not sure about this, but Fu Junqiu looked for He Pei too. Maybe she was here to see if he was suitable for their company.” Yuan Yu looked deadpan serious.

However, it seemed that Fu Junqiu had seen He Pei’s limitations in future prospects. They had to admit that Fu Junqiu’s ability to poach talent was first-class.

He Pei could develop in the field of television shows, but with his ability and image, it would be a little tough for him to move into the big screen.

The Fu family’s entertainment company’s main business was to train movie stars because they could easily push them into the international scene and popularize them around the globe. In short, they wanted international superstars.

“She came for Xixi. Does that mean the Fu family wants to move into the music industry?” Shen Xi laughed. “The Fu family is really something… No matter what business they do, they’ll go for the best.”

‘Tsk tsk… I’m so popular with the Fu family. Fu Qingli is looking for me for the pharmaceutical makeup and Fu Junqiu is looking for Xixi, the music producer.’

“Of course! The Fu family’s powerful and influential. How else can their family remain at the top of the world’s elite circle?” Yuan Yu agreed wholeheartedly with Shen Xi, then changed the topic. “But… When are you gonna appear again as Xixi anyway?”

Yuan Yu had been bombarded by other companies and illustrious singers during this period, asking him to hand over Xixi.

Such talent was needed to benefit the Chinese music industry and lead the industry back to its glory, so he could not hide this talent.

They stopped bombarding him for the past few days but began to reason with him with persuasion to release Xixi for the future of the Chinese music industry.

No one believed his lies. They were all experienced big shots in the music industry, so they could see through his little lies at one glance.
