206: C206 One Step Ahead

C206 One Step Ahead

Zhang Yilin felt like there was a fire burning in her throat. She really wanted to refute Johnson's words. But she could not think of any evidence that could be used to fight back!

She had debuted from the talent show hosted by the Longteng and relied on her background and the resources of the Longteng to reach this day step by step. She had never relied on her own strength. Any artiste who had her resources could become a celebrity.

However, Yan Xi was different.

How many people would be able to come back from the entertainment industry after experiencing the storm she said they had gone through?

Zhang Yilin was well aware of the game rules in this industry. If it were her, she would not be able to do the same as Yan Xi.

"Now we need to talk about proper business. Please go back." Johnson said in a deep voice.

Zhang Yilin still maintained her arrogant look. Her red lips were slightly raised. "We will meet again."

She would win against Yan Xi!

When she brought her manager away from the UNIC headquarters, her manager was indignant, "Who does she think she is? She dares to snatch the resources that Longteng wants. Shameless!"

"Alright, do you still think that you are not ashamed enough?" Zhang Yilin knew in her heart that what Johnson said was right. She had indeed lost.

"I am worried about you. If you do not get this endorsement, how will you explain it to me when you go back?" The manager was having a headache as he fiddled with his phone. "It's not a big deal to lose to Harry, but your opponent is Yan Xi. She is just an actress who has just signed a contract. If word gets out, she will be laughed at!"

"It's a foregone conclusion. What do you want me to do?"

"No! As long as she doesn't complete the contract, you won't lose! At most, everyone will be tied." The manager said in a low voice.

Zhang Yilin stopped and looked at the manager beside her," Is there any way to stop her now? Yan Xi is not someone who will obediently withdraw after you threaten her with a few words."

"That may not be the case. I heard that Harry has never revealed her identity as a manager. Perhaps he does not value her at all? I will go back and check. There will definitely be a turning point!"

Zhang Yilin heard these words and got into the car thoughtfully.

What her manager said was right. With her current position, losing to Yan Xi was indeed too embarrassing. Furthermore, if this matter were to spread... No, the Longteng could not lose to the Dahua!

However, they did not expect that Yan Xi's mysterious manager had already expected everything. He was sitting in President of Dahua's office, but he was able to control the entire situation.

The moment Yan Xi signed the contract with UNIC, the Public Relations Department announced this good news.

Yan Xi became the spokesperson of UNIC for the next year!

Zhang Yilin's manager had already lost before he could find anything.

After seeing this official release, the director of Longteng contacted Zhang Yilin directly and asked her what exactly had happened! Why did she give the opportunity to Yan Xi?

In their opinion, it was impossible for Yan Xi to win against Zhang Yilin.

Zhang Yilin held the phone and fell silent. She did not know how to defend herself. Her manager, who was beside her, was even more furious. She felt that the Dahua was deliberately looking for trouble and purposely let Yan Xi, who had just returned, snatch Zhang Yilin's endorsement. The Dahua wanted to go against the Longteng.

The entire entertainment circle had already spread.

Yan Xi snatched Zhang Yilin's endorsement. At this time, no matter what she did, those paparazzi and reporters would keep an eye on her. So they had to give up their original plan and pray that Yan Xi could smoothly finish filming.

Otherwise, if there was any problem, she would be blamed on Zhang Yilin.

"Yi Lin, I still did not find out Yan Xi's manager identity!" Zhang Yilin's manager was very distressed. She had already used all the connections in the circle, but the Dahua's confidentiality measures were too good. She could not find a place to start.

Zhang Yilin heard this and smiled very helplessly, "Looks like she found a good boss."

A good boss who could not hesitate to mess up the entertainment circle for her!

Just based on this point, Zhang Yilin was sure. She could not snatch the endorsement this time, "Arrange it. We will return immediately."2

The manager replied indignantly.

She was even more curious about Yan Xi's manager identity. Who exactly could play such a good game of chess?

It was not strange for the Dahua to have such a powerful manager. The strange thing was, what did the higher-ups think? They actually assigned such a powerful manager to Yan Xi?

Could it be that they were going to praise Yan Xi the next step?

On the other side, Yan Xi was also considering this question.

She could always feel it. This agent may be mysterious, but his methods are swift and decisive. It seemed like he was right beside her and knew her feelings and movements at all times. If it was just Ric passing the message in the middle, he wouldn't be able to do it so smoothly.

Then the only possibility was that this person knew her very well!

Except for him. Who else could it be?

She recalled that Chiang Mochen had mentioned it before, but she did not take it to heart at the time. It seemed like he had expected this day.

"Ric, is this mysterious manager still not willing to show himself? Even the reporters couldn't find out anything about him." Sister Xia put the newspaper aside and asked.

Sister Xia could understand if this person was deliberately trying to confuse the outside world and help Yan Xi get out of the encirclement, but even they did not know his identity. It was too strange.

Ric looked at Yan Xi hesitantly but felt that she was not as curious as Sister Xia. He smiled awkwardly, "There is indeed something on his side at the last minute and he did not come over. Trust me, he is a very outstanding manager with outstanding ability!"

After Ric finished speaking, he took out his phone and looked at the flight. He said, "My work is over. I will fly back to China tonight."

Sister Xia looked at Yan Xi and turned back to say, "So fast? Can't you stay for two more days?"

"I also have a lot of work waiting for me to go back and take care of." Ric shrugged.

But before that, he had not received any urgent notice.

"Alright then." Sister Xia said as she drank this meal of medicine. Once the bitter taste entered her mouth, she could not help frowning and had a lot of water.

"But you are sick and working like this. You should find a man earlier and take good care of you."

"You are so free. Hurry up and leave!"

Sister Xia gave Ric a look and let him experience it himself.

In fact, Ric was a very capable and observant person. In just a few days, he had already figured out Sister Xia and Yan Xi's work style and work habits. It was not a bad thing to work with someone like him.

Ric nodded and smiled, "Then I will go back first. If there is anything, we will contact each other again."

He hoped that he would not receive an urgent call from this side.

With that, Ric left the hotel with his suitcase.

Sister Xia watched him leave through the window and said in a muffled voice, "I can't get it out of his mouth. Do you think he really doesn't know or is he pretending?"
