Xu Youyou finished washing up leisurely, left the master bedroom and walked to the front hall, greeting Xie Ran.

"Today is Saturday, don't worry, we can talk while we eat."

The dining table was filled with Xu Youyou's favorite breakfast, and Xie Ran was sitting opposite her.

Unlike Xu Youyou, who was enjoying life leisurely, Xie Ran was a workaholic. He spoke before even picking up his chopsticks: "I have a college classmate, a junior from the literature department. She's in trouble. I hope to follow Song Zhibai's model and give her an advance after she starts working."

When Xie Ran said this, there was still a hint of nervousness on his face.

If your boss is someone else, you might suspect that he is trying to place his own people in the company.

But Xu Youyou didn't doubt him. Instead, she asked, "Do you think she is a rare talent?"

Xie Ran nodded. "When she was in college, she won an award for a script she wrote. She was incredibly talented. It's a shame she didn't continue in this field after graduation, but instead got married and had children. Now her marriage is in trouble, and her child is seriously ill and may need treatment abroad. Her ex-husband won't pay, so she's really at her wit's end."

"Boy or girl?" Xu Youyou asked.

"She's a very cute little girl."

Xu Youyou felt pity for her and said, "Since you think she's worth it, we'll pay for it. It's not easy for a single woman to take care of a child, so we'll try to set a higher salary."

Xie Ran heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this and said, "Boss, I really don't know how to thank you enough. If I hadn't really had no other options, I wouldn't have the nerve to ask you for this."

Xu Youyou agreed to this purely for Xie Ran's sake. After all, Xie Ran alone might be worth countless such charitable expenditures.

But next second.

Xu Youyou's eyes suddenly widened, and she asked Xie Ran seriously, "What's the name of your junior schoolmate? Tell me more about her situation."

Xie Ran was also afraid that Xu Youyou would regret it, so he immediately said, "Her name is Su Wanyi, she's two years younger than me. When she was a freshman, she won a silver medal in the industry for the script she wrote. However, it was just a hobby at the time, and she didn't take it seriously."

"After she graduated, her in-laws didn't like her working, but she hasn't completely given up all these years. This time she came to me for help with a script. I read it, and although it's a modern idol drama, I think it's very suitable for Song Zhibai."

Xie Ran was well prepared. He even took out an analysis report from his briefcase and handed it to Xu Youyou on the spot.

Xu Youyou felt dizzy after just one look. There were a lot of industry terms, and the word she saw the most was "fan economy."

Xie Ran explained, "Boss, I know you want to train Song Zhibai to be a top star. The more representative works he has, the better. One drama will help him rise to fame, and two dramas will help him maintain his position. If he can produce several more hit dramas, people will think that Song Zhibai's dramas are all excellent. With a good creative team, his path to becoming a top star will be smoother."

Xu Youyou naturally understood this principle. Moreover, Su Wanyi was a system-certified talent. She nodded and said, "Since you say the script is good, we can start planning and filming this drama. Once Song Zhibai finishes filming his current drama, we can let him join the crew seamlessly."

Xie Ran added: "If everything goes well, maybe this script can bring three or four top stars to our company."

"Since you are so confident in Su Wanyi's script, then arrange auditions now. As an idol drama, both men and women must have the kind of beauty that makes people's eyes shine. If they are not good-looking enough, how can it be called an idol drama?" Xu Youyou said.

Xie Ran was well prepared: "I have already asked people to go to various universities to find campus beauties and campus handsome men. Although it is an idol drama, the actors will also be trained in advance. If the acting is too awkward, I am afraid that the audience will not buy it."

Xu Youyou added, "When filming an idol drama, we have to be real. We have to prepare real luxury cars and mansions. Don't be afraid to spend money. If it really doesn't work, I can also provide you with some props."

Xie Ran's eyes lit up. Luxury cars and mansions can be rented, but top-notch jewelry is not easy to find. Xu Youyou is willing to help, which is naturally better than anything else.

After Xie Ran left, Xu Youyou went straight into her bedroom and opened the system panel.

Su Wanyi, a top screenwriter whose family life hindered her, sold her painstakingly written script to raise money for her daughter's medical treatment. The script was then credited to someone else, and the TV series became a huge success. She, who should have enjoyed the accolades and fame, ultimately chose to flee the country due to her daughter's death and her husband's relentless pressure.

After reading the system's introduction, Xu Youyou was filled with regret. She thought to herself, if Su Wanyi hadn't gotten married right after graduation, she would have achieved great success long ago. It turned out that men only affect the speed of drawing the sword.

Since Xu Youyou wanted to keep Su Wanyi, she decided to be a good person and called Xie Ran again: "Su Wanyi is planning to send her daughter abroad for treatment. Coincidentally, I know a treatment agency. Although the fee is a bit expensive, they can contact medical teams abroad. The child's illness cannot be delayed. The sooner she is sent abroad for treatment, the better."

Xie Ran didn't expect such a pleasant surprise. As soon as he relayed this to Su Wanyi, she immediately burst into tears.

"The boss said that he would arrange for Xiaobao to go abroad for medical treatment just like he did for Song Zhibai's mother. You should stop having these random thoughts during this period of time. Go abroad with Xiaobao, and maybe you can find some inspiration, which can be considered as a way to repay the boss." Xie Ran said.

Su Wanyi married her childhood sweetheart after graduation. She thought her life would be smooth sailing, but she discovered her husband had cheated on her after the child was born. Her in-laws also disliked the fact that it was a girl. After several years of arguing, they finally divorced. After the divorce, it was discovered that the child was sick. Her life was a mess. Fortunately, things turned around.

If Xie Ran hadn't stopped her, Su Wanyi, the former favored girl of heaven, would have wanted to run over and kowtow to Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou contacted the medical agency on the same day. Su Wanyi already had a passport, and within two days, she took her daughter abroad on Xu Youyou's private plane.

Xu Youyou did not rest after returning to Shanghai. She hired a calligraphy teacher. She also had a letter from Zeng Gong in her hand, but she was not in a hurry to sell it. Instead, she wanted to learn more about calligraphy.

After she returned to Shanghai, she almost never went out of the house, forcing herself to become a homebody, but the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop.

Xu Youyou is very focused on her work and puts her cell phone away when she studies. She had just finished her calligraphy class when she saw several missed calls on her muted phone.

Seeing the familiar name, Xu Youyou called back: "Aunt Wang, this is Xiao Xu, is there anything urgent?"

The person who called was Aunt Wang, Xu Youyou's former landlord. Xu Youyou came to Shanghai alone and helpless, and Aunt Wang felt sorry for her and took good care of her.

Aunt Wang's voice on the other end of the phone was full of helplessness. She said, "Xiao Xu, I don't want to bother you, but the Gu family comes looking for you every few days. When they can't find you, they block the door. They insist on seeing you. I haven't rented out my house yet. I really have no choice..."
