The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 304
Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Not Allowed to Leave (3)
“Don’t you have a recommendation?” Xia Siyu was indifferent to variety shows; as long as she could collect her paycheck for the work, she was content.
Qin Baizhou said with a smile, “Indeed, there’s this talk show that’s quite popular online, and they’re inviting you to be a regular guest. Of course, you only need to take a day or two each month to record several episodes, so it won’t cause any delay. As long as you don’t hit anyone on the show or make any illegal or disorderly statements, you’re free to say whatever you please.”
Xia Siyu gave an “Oh,” and said, “Let’s go with that.”
“There’s another one, a dance-oriented program. I’ve noticed you seem to be quite a good dancer, and the first season featured celebrities as guests. It’s great for gaining popularity and viewership. But participating in this would require some time for practice. However, once you’re done with this program, you can seamlessly move on to filming ‘Youth 2’…”
That’s when Xia Siyu finally realized something was amiss, “What about ‘Spring Light’? Did you talk to them for me?”
Qin Baizhou was confident as well, “We’ve held several internal meetings and unanimously concluded that spending half a year on a project that might not succeed is a waste of time. It’s not just my suggestion; it includes our other two partners and a group of senior agents.”
Xia Siyu didn’t want to hear these explanations, “I want to sign ‘Spring Light’.”
Qin Baizhou couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you so fixated on this project? Is it because… the male lead is Bo Yan?”
Xia Siyu was somewhat surprised, “What does this have to do with Bo Yan? I like the script. I think that anyone who can write a script like this must have put a lot of effort into it. He may not have been a well-known director before, but someone who writes a script with such dedication, surely won’t do poorly. Besides, there’s Yu Fenfei, Director Yu can supervise it.”
Qin Baizhou’s expression stiffened.
He had managed Xia Siyu for seven years. In those seven years, although Xia Siyu seemed to be very decisive and selective, if he spoke nicely and stroked her ego, she never objected.
Of course, he asked himself if, over the years, he had not deliberately exploited Xia Siyu’s commercial value, and he had also considered her interests, which Xia Siyu was well aware of, so their cooperation had always been pleasant.
But now everything had changed, starting from when she auditioned for “Storm” on her own, and after she began speaking with Bo Yan, all her choices, which seemed to be her own, were actually guided by Bo Yan.
Including the “Flowers and Grass” program, which he had also fancied, but it was clear that Bo Yan knew they were going to participate, yet they had no idea Bo Yan was too.
Perhaps, the whole production team invited her at Bo Yan’s behest. Given his status and popularity, that was entirely within the realm of possibility.
“Storm” and “Flowers and Grass” might be passable, after all, one was a work by Wang Ju, and the other was the hottest variety show of the summer, which even helped Xia Siyu clear up some past rumors. But why ‘Spring Light’?
Bo Yan might have his own investment in the film or other considerations, which is why he would act in it. But Xia Siyu was different; there was no need for her to sacrifice herself for Bo Yan.
“If you really must go…”
After a long while, Qin Baizhou finally said these words with difficulty.
Xia Siyu nodded firmly.
