Yang Meng's attention was not on Lin Yan, but on Xin Chuang Entertainment.
After all, in her memory, Lin Yan's family had gone bankrupt, and she herself had signed a contract for patronage.
Therefore, this person was no longer worth her attention.
Yang Meng hadn't paid much attention to Xin Chuang's rise initially. After all, Xin Chuang started by packaging internet celebrities.
Yang Meng herself disdained those internet celebrities, as she was already a top-tier star with strong backing and ample resources.
Thus, she would never stoop to pay attention to an internet celebrity entertainment company.
But with Xin Chuang's successful investment in a movie this time, she seemed to see hope for her own advancement.
She hadn't watched that movie, but the unknown male and female leads and the director with no representative works told her that the movie's success was inseparable from the company.
Although she didn't understand why this movie didn't exist in the original plot, nor did Xin Chuang Entertainment.
She didn't think much of it, after all, she was only reading a novel, and it was impossible to write out everything.
Moreover, although the movie won an award, its box office performance was a complete flop. And it was rumored that it would not be re-released.
Perhaps this was why the book didn't mention this movie.
Yang Meng was only a few awards away from being called a "Movie Queen" if she could truly win a Best Actress award.
Although Yang Meng had many resources and the people behind her were quite powerful, for some reason, she had never won a prestigious award.
Therefore, she now had her sights set on Xin Chuang's capabilities. Her agent told her that Xin Chuang was preparing several movies.
Yang Meng felt this might be an opportunity for her. She had a premonition that if she starred in a Xin Chuang movie, her chances of winning an award would be very high.
So, Yang Meng had her assistant contact the person in charge at Xin Chuang.
But Xin Chuang directly refused her, which made Yang Meng extremely angry.
Since she transmigrated, no one had dared to disrespect her like this. That Xin Chuang was truly audacious.
"Sister Meng, please don't get angry over such an unappreciative small company. It's just one movie that won an award, and they're getting carried away!"
An assistant tried to placate her, knowing her boss's temper. She knew that the harsher she spoke about the company, the happier her boss would be.
"Mengmeng, don't mind it either. It's just a small company. One movie is their limit." Yang Meng's agent also advised.
"Since they don't need you, forget it. I have a few big production invitations here for you to consider. We're not like those obscure celebrities; there are plenty of scripts waiting for your schedule!"
The words of the agent and assistant improved Yang Meng's mood considerably, but she still wanted to teach Xin Chuang a lesson.
"Sister Lisa (Yang Meng's agent), help me find some scripts. No need to specifically look for big productions. I still lack a few awards. Help me see which ones are award-worthy first."
Yang Meng also felt she might have been too hasty. She was already at the pinnacle of the entertainment industry and didn't need to care about one or two awards.
As long as she maintained her popularity, she didn't need to worry about those awards. She would eventually become a Movie Queen.
"Okay, but Mengmeng, I saw a few variety show invitations that look good, and the audience anticipation is quite high. I've also watched them, and they're quite interesting."
"You don't have any new works airing recently, so participating in a variety show to increase your exposure would be good."
Lisa scrolled through her phone and showed a few invitations to Yang Meng.
"I'd highly recommend this one, 'Heartbeat Travel.' It focuses on romance and travel. You can relax there."
"Yes, Sister Meng. Romance variety shows are quite popular recently. You've been a bit tired lately, so you can go play and clear your head." The assistant also chimed in.
As long as their boss shifted her attention elsewhere, she wouldn't be so angry.
Yang Meng took the invitation and casually glanced at it.
She naturally knew that romance variety shows were very popular, but the reason she had never accepted one was her suitors.
Yang Meng had never settled on a romantic partner because she didn't want to lose them.
If she were to get into a relationship, her admirers would no longer be as useful to her.
If she were to commit to a relationship, she would have to find someone even more outstanding than them, someone who could suppress all of them.
However, participating in a romance variety show wouldn't be bad. At least it would create a sense of urgency for them, making them treat her better and allowing her to gain more benefits.
But when Yang Meng saw that the variety show was live-streamed throughout, she became a little hesitant.
After all, live-streaming meant she would have to be mindful of her performance at all times.
She knew herself best. She understood that she wasn't as perfect as her persona suggested, even though she always appeared perfect on camera.
"Are there any others?" Yang Meng inquired.
She didn't want to be under the camera all the time; it was too tiring.
"There are, but the production quality of the others isn't as good, and the guests aren't very famous. Mengmeng, if you go, it would be like lifting them up."
Lisa disdained the other variety shows, considering her artist's status.
"Then forget it, let's go with this one. Sister Lisa, please negotiate with the director."
Upon hearing Lisa's words, Yang Meng lost interest in looking at other variety shows.
"Alright, I'll contact them right away. The remuneration they're offering is quite good; it should be enough for you to get a few more nice pieces of jewelry."
Her artist, of course, didn't lack jewelry, as she received plenty on her birthday and holidays.
She just didn't usually accept much. Out of dozens of gifts, she might only accept one or two that were truly unique.
"I hope so, but please clarify if there's a script and how long the live broadcast will be. I don't want to be under the camera all the time."
Yang Meng complained. She didn't want to maintain an act for several consecutive days.
"Rest assured, I will ask for clarification and absolutely won't make you uncomfortable."
Lisa understood her artist's temperament. On the surface, she appeared as a kind goddess, but in reality, she had a terrible temper.
If it were truly a continuous live broadcast without rest, she also feared Yang Meng's persona would collapse.
"Oh, by the way, President Meng wants to meet you for dinner and discuss investment in the next project," Lisa said hesitantly.
"Tell President Meng that I'm busy recently. Also, leak the news of President Meng's invitation to Wan Yao."
This President Meng was already married, yet he was still lusting after her. She couldn't even be bothered with those second-generation rich kids, let alone this married man.
What could she possibly gain from him? His bald head, his potbelly, his greasy, obnoxious demeanor?
He should look at himself. Just because he had a little money, he thought the whole world revolved around him!
