Chapter 182 Don’t take the initiative and don’t refuse
Huo Siyan was touching up her makeup in front of the vanity mirror on the passenger side of the Audi A6 when she saw Xu Kun get into the car. He frowned and asked, "When you were filming the Seven Fairies, was there an actress named Yang Suo?"
"Yes, I have."
Huo Siyan glanced at Xu Kun and asked suspiciously, "Why, did she come to you directly?"
"That's not it."
Looking at Huo Siyan's expression, Xu Kun guessed that this matter was probably related to her.
"I'm not the instigator!"
Facing Xu Kun's questioning, Huo Siyan closed her powder box with a snap, pursed her lips and tilted her head towards the makeup mirror, and said jokingly: "My good sister wanted to drag someone into this to atone for her sins, but unfortunately she didn't get the point, so I quietly helped her."
Haha~
Of course, Xu Kun couldn't believe her lies. Although the two swallows seemed to be very affectionate sisters on the surface, in fact, they both wanted to step on the other.
As he started the car, he said to Huo Siyan with a sullen face, "Tell me what's going on in detail. I'll go find Jiang Yiyan to verify it later. If what you said is not true, hehe..."
Although Huo Siyan was not as obedient to Xu Kun as Jiang Yiyan, she did not dare to hide Xu Kun's seriousness anymore.
So I gave Xu Kun a general description of what happened on the set of "The Seven Fairies".
"My good sister offended Yang Suo as soon as she arrived at the crew, so she didn't consider Yang Suo as her target at all. However, she didn't think about the fact that a group of girls in the crew were the protagonists, and many of them were still students in school. How could they know how difficult it was to gain a foothold in this place?
On the contrary, Yang Suo is one year older than both of us, debuted not too late, and has had two pretty outstanding roles. This time, she was replaced by my good sister as the second female lead. How could I not be touched?
So I just..."
Huo Siyan repeated exactly what she had said to Yang Suo, and then asked curiously, "I didn't get her reply until the crew finished filming, so how did you know about this? Could it be that she was blinded by greed and took the initiative to find Jiang Yiyan?"
Xu Kun did not answer her question, but frowned and thought about the impact of this matter on himself.
He didn't have much aversion to Jiang Yiyan's actions. After all, Jiang Yiyan didn't use any despicable means to force others to submit. She just provided another path and another choice.
As for Huo Siyan, if she conspired with Jiang Yiyan to squeeze Yang Suo first and then take action, it would be considered a despicable method, but she and Jiang Yiyan were not on good terms with each other.
Huo Siyan even tried to win over Yang Suo just to make things difficult for Jiang Yiyan - since they had become enemies, Yang Suo would definitely not get along with Jiang Yiyan in the future. Besides, even if there was no hatred, they would definitely compete for the resources in her hands in the future.
Now that Huo Siyan has joined Huayi, although she still has to rely on her own connections for care, she is no longer as dependent on herself for resources.
So she was naturally happy to drag someone in and compete openly and secretly with Jiang Yiyan.
The issue is……
In fact, Xu Kun prefers the couple in the crew rather than keeping a mistress. Otherwise, the more women he has around him, the more things he needs to worry about, which is really troublesome.
"Just concentrate on driving first."
Huo Siyan lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth, saying with a smile: "Actually, I chose that girl because I wanted to change your taste."
"How do you say this?"
"That girl has the character of a good wife and a loving mother. She also looks like a gentle and virtuous girl from a small family. She is completely different from my good sister."
What is the opposite of a good wife and a loving mother?
Watery?
She kept calling her "good sister" and stabbed me with the knife all the time.
Xu Kun didn't believe it at all: "If she was really a good wife and a loving mother, would she be bewitched by you?"
"Haha, the good wives and good mothers in the entertainment industry are quite different from the good wives and good mothers among ordinary people. After all, ordinary good wives and good mothers will not encounter such temptations. Besides, aren't they still married?"
In fact, Xu Kun had said something similar before. He wouldn't say that the scale of sexual relations between men and women in the entertainment industry is the highest among all industries - after all, there are still fallen women to keep the place in check - but it is definitely among the most explicit.
He smacked his lips and asked again, "What does the girl look like?"
Huo Siyan spread her hands: "Didn't I tell you that she is a gentle and virtuous girl from a small family, with a small face like an oval, and eyes that curve like crescent moons when she smiles. She is cute and pure - by the way, you must have seen Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, right? She played Zhong Ling in it."
"Oh~"
Xu Kun had an impression of this. He pondered for a long time until he parked the car downstairs of LeTV's newly rented office building. Then he said to Huo Siyan: "Don't contact her actively in the future. Wait until she contacts you first."
"I understand that it's not a good deal to rush in."
Huo Siyan smiled smugly. "You know nothing!"
Xu Kun couldn't help but roll his eyes. He just wanted to give the decision to Yang Suo himself. How could he think as dirty as Huo Siyan?
To put it bluntly, although Xu was lustful and loved sex, he really didn't take women too seriously - of course, he wasn't the kind of man who was heartless and unscrupulous, otherwise he wouldn't have been involved with Shuang Feiyan.
When they got out of the car, they saw colorful flags waving and drums beating outside the hall, as if the celebration was in full swing.
Although LeTV Video Network has only been online for more than two months, it has received far more positive reviews than the original version because it has adopted some mature routines of later generations and brought users an unprecedented experience.
In a short period of time, it stood out and became the most dazzling dark horse in the Internet industry in the second half of this year.
As a result, Jia Yueting once again proved his vision and ability in front of his backers, and gained more resources and wider network of contacts.
This also made Jia Yueting value Xu Kun even more. After all, behind the two outstanding actions of [self-media, video network], Xu Kun, the military strategist, came up with ideas.
Especially since Xu Kun was determined to make it in the entertainment industry, Jia Yueting felt more at ease with him.
but……
Xu Kun always felt that Jia Yueting seemed a little too proud. Why was he holding a celebration banquet during an unusual festival?
They even asked Gan Wei to contact students from the PLA Academy of Art to organize a cultural performance - what qualifications do you, a private company, have to organize a cultural performance?
"what?"
Xu Kun was looking at the layout in front of the office building when he suddenly heard a voice in its puberty period exclaim, "Look, it's the Moon Worshiper!"
"It's the Blood Moon Cult Leader!"
Xu Kun was correcting his frown when he saw a teenager with greasy hair and powdered face pointing at him with a look of surprise. Beside him were a few kids about thirteen or fourteen years old, who also had rouge and powder on their faces, as if they were going to go on stage to perform.
"Yang Yang!"
At this time, Gan Wei came out from the hall and scolded, "Don't be so rude!"
The boy named Yang Yang shrank his neck, turned around and made a face at his companions, then rushed into the office building.
Seeing this, Xu Kun couldn't help but wonder, "Why do you have child soldiers in your military art school?"
"These are all students in the junior class. They can sign up when they are 12 years old."
Gan Wei glanced back and added in a low voice: "The selection method is not very transparent. Many people outside don't know about this."
understood!
Xu Kun suddenly realized.
At this time, Huo Siyan walked over and took Gan Wei's hand, and asked with a smile: "Why, the boss lady is going to go on stage herself too?"
Gan Wei was also dressed in a stage style, so Huo Siyan asked this question.
"I am the host of this cultural performance."
Gan Wei smiled sweetly: "You and Brother Kun, you have to show me your support later."
After a pause, she called out, "Brother Kun, please come in quickly. Lao Jia seems to have something to discuss with you."
In fact, even without going in, Xu Kun knew what Jia was going to say, which was nothing more than the Tudou Video Network that would be launched on January 1th.
Originally, because LeTV did not make much of a splash when it went online, Tudou made sufficient preparations before launching in April 05.
Although LeTV cannot be said to be extremely popular now, it is at least a dark horse this year. Wang Wei of Tudou naturally could not sit still, so he went public four months ahead of schedule.
I heard that many settings were copied from LeTV. This incident also shows that the influence caused by Xu Kun's butterfly wings is becoming more and more important.
