Yu Qingjiu is doing really well right now, and his popularity has reached the peak of a second-tier star.
One of his dramas is currently being streamed online and gaining a lot of attention.
If things keep going this way, and with a good opportunity, becoming a first-tier or even a super-first-tier star wouldn’t be a problem.
At this stage, terminating his contract and switching agencies actually comes with some risks, because you never know if your next agency will offer you such great opportunities.
In the past, Yu Qingjiu would never have done something so foolish.
But things are different now…
Yu Qingjiu doesn’t want to stay at Feisheng Entertainment. Without good resources, his popularity will slowly decline, and eventually, all the fame he’s worked so hard to build up recently will disappear.
Thinking about the news he received earlier…
Yu Qingjiu feels even more determined to break his contract.
He doesn’t want to waste time at an entertainment company that barely has any resources to offer.
Plus, he’s already found his next agency—the one that currently manages the rising pop star Yin Tianyu. That agency has way better resources than Feisheng Entertainment right now.
Don’t get me wrong, Ye Shaohua is the daughter of the famous Ye, the head of the family. But whether that Ye actually sees her as a daughter or not is still up in the air.
Thinking about this, Yu Qingjiu glances at Ye Shaohua with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.
“Terminate the contract, is that it?” Ye Shaohua glances at Yu Qingjiu.
She doesn’t try to keep him, unlike the original owner of this body, who desperately tried to hold on to this artist who was so determined to leave.
In the original story, the original owner took some steps to try and keep Yu Qingjiu, but he ended up rallying his fans, claiming that the original owner was exploiting him, that he was exhausted, and that his spirit had been worn down.
At that time, Yu Qingjiu was at the peak of his popularity, so his fans automatically started attacking Feisheng Entertainment online.
Not only that, but they also used public pressure to force the original owner to let Yu Qingjiu go.
Because of this, Feisheng Entertainment became even more unstable and on the verge of collapse.
Meanwhile, Yu Qingjiu only gained even more popularity from the incident.
Thinking back to all that, Ye Shaohua reaches out and starts typing on the keyboard.
This is Yu Qingjiu’s first time interacting with Ye Shaohua, and he suddenly realizes just how fast her hands are. As a celebrity, he’s played games with professional esports players before.
It seems…
Even those pro players’ hand speed might not be as fast as hers.
What is she doing exactly?
“President Ye, I said I want to terminate my contract…” After waiting a long while without a response, Yu Qingjiu frowns.
If she refuses, he’ll have to think of other ways.
Ye Shaohua types the last word, hits enter, and prints out everything she just wrote.
“Here’s the termination agreement. Take a look, and if nothing seems off, go ahead and sign it,” Ye Shaohua says. Once the document is printed, she picks it up, signs her name, and stamps it. “You can have a lawyer look it over, but don’t worry—they won’t find a single thing wrong with it.”
With that, Ye Shaohua pushes back her chair and heads straight out the door.
Li Wen watches her, looking like she wants to say something but hesitates.
Ye Shaohua doesn’t explain. She just gives her one instruction: keep a close eye on Yu Qingjiu’s termination contract and don’t lose it.
Ye Shaohua doesn’t go anywhere else either. She heads straight downstairs.
To the first-floor practice room.
Feisheng Entertainment has a lot of new talents, too.
They were all scouted by various agents, and some of them have real potential. But right now, Feisheng Entertainment probably doesn’t have enough resources to push a new star. At the moment, their main focus is Yu Qingjiu.
Ye Shaohua leans against the glass door, watching the group train while flipping through documents.
These are the latest batch of new talent files she just got from the manager.
She flips through them really fast—basically one page per second.
So fast that the manager can’t help but wonder if she’s actually reading them properly or not.
After finishing, she hands the files back to the manager.
A little while later, the coach claps his hands and dismisses everyone for some free time.
Ye Shaohua walks in and points at a bright, clean-cut young man. “You, Qu Ran, right? Hang on a second.”
The young man points at himself. “Me?”
“That’s right,” Ye Shaohua nods, then looks at the manager. “Take him upstairs later to sign a contract.”
She actually got the name right? Did she learn that from flipping through the files just now, or did President Ye already know this guy?
Thinking about how fast Ye Shaohua flipped through those files, the manager has reason to suspect that, actually, President Ye already knew this guy, didn’t she?
But she really didn’t act like it at all.
“A contract? What level?” the manager asks after hearing Ye Shaohua’s words.
Ye Shaohua squints. In this world, entertainment companies have different contract levels when signing artists.
A, B, C, and the highest one—S-level contracts.
Back in the day, Yu Qingjiu signed an A-level contract, which was already considered very high for Feisheng Entertainment.
Truth be told, S-level contracts are hardly ever offered by entertainment companies because the risk is just too big. Unless the artist is truly super talented.
“The highest level,” Ye Shaohua says casually, slipping her hands into her pockets. “Don’t assign him a manager. I’ll handle him personally.”
With that, she turns and leaves. But before stepping out, she adds one more instruction, “Get his assistant and everything else sorted out. Tomorrow, I’ll take him to an audition.”
“But…” the manager frowns.
Ye Shaohua glances at him, as if she already knows what he’s worried about, and smiles. “Don’t worry. There’s no one I can’t make a star out of.”
After all, in her original world, she reached the very top of the entertainment industry in just two years, all on her own. Now that she’s been through so many worlds, if she couldn’t even pull this off, what right would she have to take on these missions?
