Outside the opulent Grand Hotel, a nanny van arrived. Two women wearing sunglasses alighted and headed straight into the hotel.
These were two of the three second-tier stars, Li Xin and Ma Sinian.
Their agents followed behind. One of them called Lu Jianzhang to inform him they had arrived downstairs.
Sister Sinian, who is this Young Master Zheng Bing? Li Xin asked curiously.
She happened to be in Beijing, and her agent had arranged this event for her, saying all she had to do was attend a meal.
Someone inviting you to a meal and paying you for it, so why not go.
Besides, those referred to as Young Masters usually have some influence. It’s best not to offend them if possible.
At least, until you have a strong backing, no matter how popular you are, you are just a moneymaker for the company.
Li Xin was a very pure actress, only wanting to act in good dramas and not engage in such social events. Generally, she rarely attended gatherings like this.
Especially dining with some Young Masters, she detested it.
However, she was just an artist under the company. This dinner party happened to be encountered today, and it was simple and easy, so her agent agreed immediately.
Agents were assigned by the company, so she had no choice unless she was famous enough to arrange her own schedule or choose scripts. Otherwise, you were the company's moneymaker, and you had to do what they told you.
Free arrangement was the right of those top-tier actresses. After all, when you bring more income to the company, the company naturally grants you more authority.
Like Cai Wen’er before, she was a popular traffic star, a young rising actress.
Hu Li had wanted to sleep with Cai Wen’er for a long time, but Cai Wen’er played coy and never let Hu Li have his way, only offering him vegetarian meals. Hu Li was helpless.
After all, the company still relied on Cai Wen’er for money, and no one wanted to fall out completely, to break the last thin layer of window.
In the end, when Cai Wen’er had no more utility value, they could do whatever they wanted with her.
He’s a Young Master from Modu, with considerable wealth, worth tens of billions to hundreds of billions. Ma Sinian said.
Then, seeing Li Xin looked unhappy, Ma Sinian said with a smile, Don’t be too resistant to these occasions. It’s unavoidable in our profession. They are all wealthy Young Masters. You never know whom you might offend and bring trouble upon yourself. You can only survive in this circle by playing it safe.
Since you chose this industry, you must ignore your dislikes. There are gains and losses.
You want to earn this quick money and chase your dream of becoming a big star; you must know how to sacrifice.
Okay. Li Xin nodded.
After they all went up to the private room, Lu Jianzhang waited outside. Li Xin and Ma Sinian followed Lu Jianzhang into the private room.
As soon as they entered, Lu Jianzhang introduced them proactively: These two big stars, this is Young Master Liu, this is Young Master Wang, and this is our protagonist today, Young Master Zheng. It’s his birthday today.
Upon hearing this, Li Xin and Ma Sinian glanced at Liu Liwei. The protagonist was introduced last, so this Young Master Liu must have the highest status.
Li Xin and Ma Sinian greeted the three of them sequentially, then were arranged to sit down.
Liu Liwei nodded without saying a word. These stars seemed high and mighty, but in his eyes, they were still like ants, not on the same level.
To put it pretentiously, even the big bosses behind them would have to respectfully call him Young Master Liu when they saw him.
Ma Sinian, true to her actor background, quickly blended into the atmosphere, chatting and laughing with everyone.
About ten minutes later, the other three female stars arrived. Besides two third-tier celebrities, there was also a second-tier star, Jing Suan.
Young Master Liu, why are you here too? Jing Suan asked Liu Liwei in surprise.
Jing Suan had dined with Liu Liwei many times in Kyoto and they knew each other.
Beauty Jing, I didn’t expect to run into you in Modu. Liu Liwei, upon meeting an acquaintance, spoke for the first time in a while.
Young Master Zheng invited me to a meal, all thanks to Young Master Zheng. Jing Suan said with a chuckle.
Zheng Bing looked at Jing Suan curiously. He hadn't expected her to know Young Master Liu, which made things easier.
This Jing Suan is indeed beautiful.
With the addition of several big stars, everyone chatted more happily. The hotel staff began serving dishes, and the large table was lively. There were also performers on stage to sing and dance for entertainment.
During the meal, Ma Sinian pulled Jing Suan aside and asked in a low voice, Which Young Master is this Young Master Liu?
They could all tell that Young Master Liu was the real decision-maker. Everyone revolved around him, and even the protagonist of today, Zheng Bing, was subservient to Young Master Liu like a sycophant.
He is one of the top Young Masters from Kyoto, the most elite young masters in all of China. Even your boss would have to become a jumping, barking sycophant if he saw him, Jing Suan explained to Ma Sinian in a low voice.
Hiss...
Ma Sinian instinctively startled, her legs pressing tightly together.
No wonder they say Jing Suan has a powerful background, supported by important figures. In fact, she doesn’t have any major figures looking out for her; she just mixes in Kyoto circles, coupled with her beauty and eloquence, she makes different friends.
Take Liu Liwei, for example. Although he and Jing Suan don’t have a very close relationship, Liu Liwei is willing to help this great beauty.
Jing Suan knows how to leverage her connections. Smart women don’t necessarily have to sell their bodies; they can also use their intelligence to thrive.
Jing Suan clearly belongs to this category. The rumors online about her having powerful backing are never clarified by her. Let them say whatever they want; in a way, it’s indirect self-promotion.
However, the only regret is that no matter how much the company promotes her, she just doesn’t become popular.
You say she’s beautiful, her acting isn’t great but not bad either, she’s been in countless blockbusters, and collaborated with Heavenly Kings and Best Actors many times, why isn’t she popular?
He... is he that powerful? Ma Sinian asked softly.
Yes, I’ve known him for two years. Jing Suan affirmed with a hum.
Young Master Liu, I’ll toast you. My name is Ma Sinian. Let’s keep in touch more often. Ma Sinian proactively stood up to befriend Liu Liwei.
After all, in her line of work, everyone wants a patron.
Such a formidable patron isn’t something you can just wish for; it requires opportunity and luck.
She has this opportunity now, so she naturally wants to get acquainted with Liu Liwei.
Alright. Liu Liwei appeared very casual, picking up his wine glass and taking a small sip.
Liu Liwei wasn't interested in these celebrities, including Jing Suan. He just considered them friends.
His identity was sensitive, and he didn’t want to get involved with these celebrities. There were plenty of women who wanted him.
He had to maintain his purity at all times.
He could show off, eat, drink, and have fun, but there were certain lines he couldn't cross.
To put it bluntly, none of the people present were worthy.
