Jiang Ling originally wanted to mock Wang Tian a few more times, but then she thought it wasn't worth wasting her breath on such a scumbag.
No matter how many sarcastic words she said, it wouldn't hurt him.
Instead, he would think that you had a difficult time before, which is why you are so arrogant after achieving success.
"Grandma has other things to do, I'm hanging up!"
Without waiting for Wang Tian to respond, Jiang Ling directly hung up.
A few seconds later, Wang Tian's call came again.
Jiang Ling frowned, and once again, inexplicably pressed the answer button.
Just as she was about to speak, Wang Tian's furious roar came from the other end of the phone: "Jiang Ling—"
"Grandma is here, speak quickly if you have something to say, fart quickly if you have to!"
Jiang Ling, too lazy to be polite with him, blurted out.
Wang Tian angrily said, "You... you woman, don't think you can fly to the heavens just because you played a good role? I'm telling you, you're still far from it."
Hearing this, Jiang Ling said calmly, "Then let's take it slowly. Anyway, I'm still young and have plenty of time to endure."
"Endure? Humph, a frog in a well, overestimating yourself. In this circle now, capital is supreme, money is supreme. Someone like you, a mere vase with only beauty, you'll only be a star in the spotlight if the company is willing to promote you. If the company is not willing, you're nothing. If the company hadn't spared no effort to package you, buy traffic, create trending topics, and send you out, could you be where you are today?"
"Oh, really?"
Jiang Ling's voice was calm and unwavering, a cold smile playing on her lips.
That's right, for current trending celebrities to become popular, they indeed need capital to boost them from behind.
However, for trending celebrities to become top-tier, capital alone is far from enough; their own looks must also be up to par.
If they were as ugly as the bell-ringer of Notre Dame, even if capital went bankrupt and they sold their pants, they still wouldn't be able to make them popular.
Therefore, for the original owner to ascend to the top tier, it was half due to capital and half due to her stunning looks.
It's a pity that most entertainment companies only see the money they invest, but not the artist's own merits, leading to various exploitation, oppression, and deliberate belittlement.
Wang Tian continued, "Of course, any artist who leaves their agency will become a rootless duckweed, and their ultimate fate is self-evident. I admit I was wrong before, and it's already giving you face to apologize to you now in such a humble manner. If you maintain this attitude, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
His tone deepened, and he sinisterly said, "Although Spark Media isn't an industry overlord, it's still a top-tier company. Blocking a notorious, past-their-prime trending celebrity like you is effortless. If you don't believe me, you can try!"
Failing to entice, he resorted to outright coercion.
It was a pity that Jiang Ling consistently resisted coercion.
She sneered coldly, "Alright, let's try it. I want to see how you'll block me."
After speaking, she hung up the phone again and added Wang Tian's number to the blacklist.
"What a piece of work, tsk!"
Jiang Ling spat disdainfully.
Indeed, most young artists entering the industry nowadays need to be packaged by an agency to debut and have a chance to become popular.
There is almost no artist who can claim they can become famous throughout the entertainment industry without relying on anyone.
Even award-winning actors and actresses, singers, and divas cannot guarantee that they can consistently produce good works.
And for a celebrity to remain popular, they need a continuous stream of attention.
