With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

"Xu Zishan?"

Shen Ci pondered the name, and seemed to recall it; it was the girl who had initially taken the role of the younger sister.

Xiaoyun nodded repeatedly: "That's right, everyone present could see that she did it on purpose, but there's no way to say it outright, she simply won't admit it."

Several days have passed, but Xiaoyun still can't help but feel indignant on Ali's behalf when she brings it up now.

Shen Ci's expression remained calm, revealing neither joy nor anger. She simply asked, "Anything else?"

Xiaoyun thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No, that's all."

Ah Pan said, "The publicity team released Ah Li's stills today. Ah Li has suddenly become a star. With Ah Li's current popularity, Xu Zishan should not dare to do anything bad to her again."

Xiaoyun nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right. If Ali chooses to sign with 'Jin Xiao,' then no one will dare to bully her on their own film set."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ci looked at Xiao Yun and smiled: "You want her to sign 'Golden Zodiac'?"

Xiaoyun stuck out her tongue a little shyly and said frankly, "That's for sure. Actually, following Sister Kuan is really good. She has a wide network of connections and a high status in the industry, which can help Ali avoid a lot of detours."

Xiaoyun's words were true, because as soon as Sister Kuan appeared on set, people came up one after another to greet her.

"Sister Kuan, what brings you here!"

As soon as the people surrounding Sister Kuan dispersed, Ren Jia seized the opportunity to greet her warmly. Since they were from the same company, Ren Jia had always wanted the company to transfer her to Sister Kuan's team, because she knew that following Sister Kuan would definitely improve her resources.

"Jiajia, this look is beautiful." Sister Kuan glanced at Ren Jia's makeup and styling today and praised her.

Ren Jia smiled and affectionately took Sister Kuan's arm, asking, "Sister Kuan, there aren't any of your people in this crew, so why are you here?"

"I've got my eye on a newcomer, so I came to meet her and see if I can sign her," Sister Kuan said bluntly.

Ren Jia was slightly taken aback, and her smile froze on her face.

His eyes darted around as he tentatively asked, "Do I need to come personally to sign new talent? You're not going to personally mentor them, are you?"

It's important to know that newcomers in a company are usually assigned to an artist coordinator, who then assigns them to a single agent. This means that when they first enter the industry, several newcomers share one agent.

Top agents like Sister Kuan only transfer to her after a newcomer has achieved outstanding results. Even Ji Chuhe only joined Sister Kuan's team a year and a half after entering the industry.

"What? Can't I mentor newcomers?" Sister Kuan asked jokingly.

Ren Jia quickly shook her head: "That's not what I meant."

Then she started to whine, "Sister Kuan, can you mentor me too? Can you talk to President Lu and ask him to transfer me to your team? I want to learn more skills under your guidance!"

"Do you still need to improve your skills?" Sister Kuan looked at her and said, "You've already won two mainstream Best Supporting Actress awards, and your popularity is pretty good. That's already a very good achievement. There's really not much I can do to help you."

"I still have a long way to go," Ren Jia said, unwilling to give up, her face full of grievance. "You said you were the one who picked me for the production team, and I signed with 'Jin Xiao' because of you. I was hoping to make some achievements in the industry so I could work for you. But then they transferred me to Brother Bo's team. You know him; he always likes to discuss business over drinks, dragging me out to social events every day. It's so annoying!"

"Don't let Brother Bo hear you say that." Sister Kuan's smile faded as she heard Ren Jia's words. "Brother Bo has gone to great lengths for you all. He even had a stomach hemorrhage from drinking too much two months ago. Do you really think he loves drinking? Isn't it because he chooses to do it because it's easier to get things done at the dinner table?"

At this point, Sister Kuan sighed and said earnestly to Ren Jia, "You know, as long as you work hard, you'll definitely have your moment in the sun. You always want to come work for me, but I have Chu He under me. You're far from being able to surpass her achievements. Coming here will only make you look worse than her. Wouldn't it be better to just stay under Brother Bo and be the top performer? He'll definitely give you the best resources first. You should be content."

Hearing what Sister Kuan said, Ren Jia pouted somewhat resentfully: "You'd rather train a newcomer than me."

Speaking of newcomers, Ren Jia couldn't help but glance at Sister Kuan and tentatively ask, "Are you going to sign Shen Li?"

Sister Kuan nodded.

Ren Jia's face immediately darkened. She knew that Shen Li would inevitably rise to prominence one day. She had intentionally cut off Shen Li's chance to appear at the press conference, but she didn't expect Shen Li to become famous anyway.

Nowadays, even Sister Kuan is willing to personally come to the film set to sign people.

Ren Jia was inwardly upset but outwardly smiled and said, "The girl is very nice, everyone likes her."

On set, the first scene between Shen Li and Song Anyu is being filmed. This is the first time the two have acted opposite each other after several days of filming.

Shen Ci and Lu Jinzhao watched quietly from the outside of the film set, and Xu Zishan's father was also present.

Shen Li and Song Anyu both look stunning on camera. A simple glance from afar is enough to create a strong sense of chemistry between them. The director behind the small screen grinned from ear to ear, as if he always has this expression when filming Shen Li.

This was also the first time Shen Ci had watched her younger sister act on set. She had always known that her sister was talented, but she hadn't expected her to be such a good actress. As soon as the camera was on her, she could quickly get into character.

"Mr. Lu."

At this moment, Xu's father suddenly came to Lu Jinzhao's side and patted him in a low voice.

Lu Jinzhao cast a questioning look at him. Because they couldn't make too much noise on set, Xu's father could only give him a look that suggested they talk somewhere further away.

Shen Ci noticed the interaction between the two but didn't pay much attention, watching them walk a long way and turn into a corner.

"Mr. Xu, what's the matter?" Lu Jinzhao asked.

Mr. Xu's expression was a little unpleasant because he had just watched his daughter act and saw her either serving tea and water or kowtowing and kneeling, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

After hesitating for a moment, he said to Lu Jinzhao, "Mr. Lu, I hope you can change my daughter's role. I don't want to see her playing a 'maid'."

Lu Jinzhao was taken aback: "President Xu, you must be joking. Filming has been going on for several days now. How could you possibly change the actor at the last minute? We would have to start all the previous scenes again! Besides, you specifically asked for this role when you invested in the project. Filming is not a game. How could you just change the actor like that?"

“I know, but I didn’t know anything about the role before. I just agreed because my daughter told me to. But now I really can’t accept it. If you think 500 yuan can only buy the role of a maid, then I can invest more.”

Lu Jinzhao shook his head helplessly: "I really can't agree to this. Even if the production team were to be short of investment, I would not agree to such an unreasonable request."
