Chapter 578: 578 Chairman of Sheng Entertainment, is it necessary to enter the circle? [2 more updates]

"Sister Ye, I finally get to see you, I asked the others in the group for your picture, but they wouldn’t give it to me," the voice of Qingling, an extremely youthful-looking boy, rang out. "Hmph, if they won’t show me, can’t I just come and see you myself?"

Fang Qingli’s mouth gaped open: "Wow, red and green hair!"

It almost blinded her.

"This color is a new dye job I got recently," the boy lifted his head proudly. "The hairdresser said it’s the latest trend in Shenzhou, so after Sister Ye contacted me yesterday, I immediately went to get my hair done, guaranteed to make a good impression on Sister Ye!"

Fang Qingli thought to herself that whether it had left a good impression was still up in the air, but this spirited young fellow must have been duped by that hairdresser.

"Sister Ye, Sister Ye, my hair—" the boy’s voice came to an abrupt halt as his gaze finally settled squarely on someone.

He looked uncertainly at the figure sitting in the chair, Ye Wanlan, and Fang Qingli standing beside her.

Obviously, both were very young, at most just over twenty.

As a poison pharmacist, he could certainly tell whether they used drugs or other means to maintain their youthful looks or if they were naturally this young.

"You..." The boy’s expression stiffened, and his red and green hair drooped, "Who is Sister Ye?"

Ye Wanlan gave a slight nod in his direction: "I am."

"Thump!"

With a roll of his eyes, the boy keeled over and fell to the floor.

"Ah ah ah ah!" Fang Qingli jumped up in alarm, "Sister Lan, should I call for an ambulance? He... What’s wrong with him? He isn’t having a sudden myocardial infarction, trying to..."

Scam us?

Fang Qingli thought the last four words were somewhat improper and indecent, so she didn’t say them out loud.

"No need," Ye Wanlan said calmly. "Those who play with poison tend to have stronger physical constitutions; it’s just that sometimes their psychological endurance is poor, leading to such situations. Let’s continue discussing work."

"Ah? Oh..." Fang Qingli was still somewhat worried, "Are you sure he’s okay? What if he dies here, Sister Lan, he... ah ah ah ah!"

Before she could finish her sentence, the boy did a kip-up and suddenly jumped to his feet.

His movements were swift, hardly in line with his earlier collapse.

"Sister Lan, he...he..." Fang Qingli was still shaken, "Who exactly is he?"

"Let me introduce myself, it’s nice to meet you for the first time. My real name is Ye Wanlan," Ye Wanlan gave the boy a gentle nod.

"My surname is Ian, name is Iliate," the boy stuttered, "This year, I don’t know how old I am, when I remember, I’ll tell Sister Ye!"

Fang Qingli was curious: "Why don’t you know how old you are?"

"Those who play with poison can change their facial features, body shape, and even the length of their bones," Ye Wanlan clarified. "It’s just that sometimes overdoing it can affect the hippocampus, leading to poor memory, so they forget their own age."

"What?!" Fang Qingli was dumbfounded.

"Hehe, that’s exactly it." Iliate touched his hair somewhat sheepishly, "I think I must be over a hundred years old by now. When I was young, the internet hadn’t even been invented!"

Fang Qingli stared at him blankly, as he spat out a string of words she couldn’t comprehend.

"But the internet really is a great thing!" Iliate’s right fist struck his left palm enthusiastically, "It helped me meet such an amazing person like Sister Ye!"

He circled around Ye Wanlan, looking her up and down: "But the one thing I never expected is that Sister Ye is truly so young!"

"In fact, I am old enough to be your ancestor’s ancestor," Ye Wanlan raised an eyebrow. "Thank you for today’s work."

"Thank what, it’s only right," Iliate fluffed up a lock of green hair. "When Sister Ye saved me before, she didn’t ask for anything in return. We are friends from the same group, knowing each other for so many years, of course, I should help with a little favor!"

After speaking, he excitedly shook his phone: "And just now, Rich Sister already transferred the money to my card. Rich Sister is truly the World’s Richest, always so generous!"

His account suddenly grew by several zeroes.

Ye Wanlan nodded: "How come you have the time for a vacation recently?"

"I’ve successfully completed a new poison experiment, and I don’t have any poisons I want to concoct at the moment," Iliate said. "So, I thought I’d take a break and look for some inspiration."

"Inspiration?" Ye Wanlan seemed thoughtful, "I do have a ready source of inspiration here, it’s just a matter of whether you can make use of it or not."

Iliate became excited, "YN sister, you said, I’m all ears!"

"Qingli, we’re heading to Sheng Entertainment right now," Ye Wanlan checked the time, "I’ll take the little poison master to see Zhu Yu, and you invite Shen Xinghe to my office to discuss business together."

"No problem, Sister Lan," Fang Qingli answered, "I’ll arrange it right now."

Iliate jumped off the table, "YN sister, how many companies have you opened? Why open so many companies, just let Rich Sister provide for you."

"Starting a company isn’t just about making money, it’s also about power," Ye Wanlan said with a faint smile, "Everyone in this world craves power, and I am no exception."

She made no attempt to conceal her ambition, as well as her thirst and desire for power.

Only with power and strength, could she do many more things.

Iliate seemed to understand but didn’t quite, "And who is Zhu Yu?"

"A friend who is very good at growing herbs," Ye Wanlan said, "I believe you’ll have quite a bit in common to talk about."

Meanwhile, at Shengshi Entertainment.

After receiving the notification, Shen Xinghe was somewhat surprised but quickly gathered her things, ready to head to the chairman’s office.

She had just stepped out of her private lounge when she ran into Wei Qingyao in the corridor.

Shen Xinghe had no intention of acknowledging her, but Wei Qingyao deliberately stepped forward, blocking her path.

Wei Qingyao raised her chin, "Shen Xinghe, dare to make a bet that this time with Pulling the Sky, you won’t even get a chance to touch the high-order."

Shen Xinghe seemed to hear something amusing, "Why should I bet with you?"

"You dare not because the company is now promoting me more," Wei Qingyao pressed aggressively, "Over half a year without joining a crew, your popularity has completely plummeted!"

Aside from the veteran actors who had already established a solid foundation in the entertainment industry, any actor who didn’t join a crew for four to five months would be mocked by industry insiders.

Shen Xinghe shrugged her shoulders, "Whatever you say, I wish you good health."

She stepped to the right, brushing past Wei Qingyao without leaving so much as a glance behind.

Wei Qingyao’s brows furrowed.

Over the past more than six months, Sheng Entertaiment’s focus obviously wasn’t on Shen Xinghe.

Even the outside world was guessing whether Shen Xinghe had done something to make Sheng Entertainment blacklist her.

Could it be that Shen Xinghe had some unknown ace up her sleeve?

Wei Qingyao’s gaze turned cold.

Between female stars on the same career path, there could only be one, and Shen Xinghe had to be trampled underfoot by her!

On the fifty-sixth floor, the chairman’s office.

"Sister Song," Shen Xinghe nodded to Song Lingyi, "Did the chairman ask for me?"

Song Lingyi nodded, "Xinghe, you’ve come back just in time. Chairman Ye rarely comes to the office. If she has asked for you, it must be for something important to discuss."

Shen Xinghe’s expression turned solemn.

During the more than half a year she had disappeared from Domestic Entertainment, she hadn’t joined a crew indeed, but she had been sent by Sheng Entertainment to Global Center, as firsthand preparation to penetrate Global Center’s entertainment industry.

Although there had been no progress in Domestic Entertainment, Shen Xinghe had already received two new scripts in Global Center.

Feeling a bit nervous, she reached out to knock on the door and, after being given permission, she entered.

"Teacher Shen, today is also our first meeting," Ye Wanlan smiled, "I hope our upcoming collaboration will smoothly conquer Global Center’s entertainment market."

Shen Xinghe stood frozen in her tracks, only two words exploded in her mind—

Boom!

The chairman of Sheng Entertainment, a titan of Domestic Entertainment, a force of capital—was she too considering entering the entertainment industry?!
