The boss of Global Film Industry looked up and instructed the secretary, "See Mr. Harvey out."
"Yes, President."
The secretary, full of fear, tried to stay calm as she spoke to the Dior executives, "Mr. Harvey, please follow me."
Gu Qing watched as the foreign man glanced at her with curiosity before leaving, with an expression resembling someone intrigued by seeing a quarrel on the street.
She was so angry that her face turned green. When he left, she walked directly to the sofa, sat down, crossed her legs, and aggressively questioned, "Boss Cai, Lin Min has been with me for five years. Why have you reassigned him to someone else? I’m used to working with him, and suddenly giving my agent to someone else—what am I supposed to do?"
Her arrogant demeanor was just shy of pointing at her own nose and asking, "What are you doing?"
The boss of Global looked at the still-open office door with a sullen expression, then glanced at the person daring to sit on the sofa and throw a tantrum without his permission, and coldly laughed while saying, "What do you want to do?"
"I have cooperated with Lin Min for five years. I’m used to working with him, and with Global, I work only with him," Gu Qing said matter-of-factly.
The boss of Global didn’t smile sincerely as he stared at her, "But Lin Min is our top agent at Global, with so many resources in hand. You can’t use them all by yourself. He can’t just manage only you. The agent for Teng Hui resigned, and he requested Lin Min to manage him. He just won the Golden Horse Best Actor, so we can’t disrespect him. I asked Lin Min, and he also wants to manage more artists."
Gu Qing, at best a second-tier artist with age against her, doesn’t have poor acting skills but isn’t good enough to win awards. Her achievements have reached a ceiling. If she could secure the role in "Lan Gan," maybe she’d advance further, but Nie Huan got that role, leaving Gu Qing stuck at the second tier.
Lin Min has always worked with top-tier or promising near-top-tier artists, which gradually made him a famous big agent in the industry. But in recent years, just because Gu Qing was domineering and jealous, Lin Min managed only her. She didn’t strive hard, only focused on hype, walking red carpets, and turned down good scripts, being picky about not liking character settings, finding filming tough, or feeling upset about her billing rank, causing Lin Min endless trouble. He even came to me to protest, saying he was turning into a ’eunuch’ beside the ’queen,’ demanding a change or he’d quit.
He only put up with it because I used Gu Qing’s background to pressure him, making him endure it for so long.
Teng Hui has unlimited potential and outstanding acting skills. When I gave Teng Hui to Lin Min, Lin Min agreed without hesitation.
Gu Qing’s pupils constricted, pletely unconvinced, "Impossible. He knows my temper; he won’t agree to manage more people. How could he agree to manage Teng Hui?"
The boss of Global walked to the desk, picked up a cup, skimmed off the tea froth, and took a sip, speaking calmly, "If you don’t believe it, you can ask him."
Having said this, Gu Qing was ninety percent convinced.
She suddenly appeared furious, jumped up, and angrily said, "What does he mean? If he has issues with me, he can bring them up directly. What’s the point of shady maneuvers behind my back? Boss Cai, you let him bully me like this?"
