Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 457 - 454: Best Actress 21
Inside the room, Shuangshuang was scrolling through her phone looking for a place to rent. She couldn’t stay in this place any longer; she had to leave soon, or she would be driven crazy by the endless reporters and paparazzi! Can you imagine, having to hide in the wardrobe just to change clothes!
Just as Shuangshuang was comparing pictures of houses online, thinking about which one to rent, there was a sudden knock on the door. Shuangshuang’s eyebrows furrowed imdiately. Who was this now, another reporter coming to interview her?
Though fed up, Shuangshuang couldn’t avoid eting them. She was at ho, and many reporters and paparazzi were taking turns to stake her out, fully aware of her whereabouts. If she dared to shut them out, news about so newly famous female celebrity acting like a diva would explode online by tomorrow!
Though deeply annoyed, Shuangshuang patted her cheeks, forced a slight smile, and checked herself in the mirror. Yes, she looked friendly and approachable enough. Her mask was perfect, showing none of her true feelings. Only then did Shuangshuang get up to open the door.
Shuangshuang was on edge for a reason. These days, many unscrupulous reporters had the knack for fabricating stories from the slightest things. Wear flat shoes and they’d claim you’re pregnant, get close to a man and you’re dating, show closeness to a woman and you’re rumored to be secretly coming out.
If she accidentally went for a walk with her parents and got spotted, and if people didn’t know those were her parents and they happened to be wealthy, it would be twisted into her being a kept woman or mistress, no doubt.
She rembered a ti when an award-winning actor was traveling for work and hadn’t slept for two days. At the airport, he looked unwell and, due to sleep deprivation, missed a small-ti reporter’s question, ignored him, and left.
The reporter went back and wrote about the actor’s bad attitude, claiming he acted like a diva, painting a vivid and lengthy story. Many people followed suit, criticizing the actor, forcing him to publicly explain and apologize online.
That actor had legions of loyal fans to back him, yet still faced such backlash. If soone like Shuangshuang, whose fa was still fragile and newfound, encountered such a scandal, she’d imdiately plumt to obscurity. Her future chances of acting would be uncertain.
So, for Shuangshuang, reporters were like privileged guests—none could be offended. She must always greet them with a smile, though her heart was filled with bitterness. Again, Shuangshuang felt it was absolutely necessary to have a manager by her side now.
With less than pleasant emotions, Shuangshuang opened the door, and to her surprise, it was not a reporter standing outside. It was easy to tell because the person didn’t carry a press card or gear. But what assured Shuangshuang even more was the highly recognizable face of Jin An!
Jin An’s fa among stars was like a gastar to ordinary fans—everyone knew him by na. His discerning eye and star-making prowess were unrivaled. As one of the few star agents at Sky Company, he had made countless award-winning actors and actresses famous!
Honestly, Shuangshuang’s achievents in her past life weren’t bad—a leading star, one step away from winning a major award. But to Senior Agent Jin, she was still a minor character. That this major figure had co to her small, shabby place—his purpose was clear without saying!
Faced with the presence of a giant in the industry, Shuangshuang’s heart couldn’t help but race. She could hardly believe her luck at being noticed by him.
Luckily, before opening the door, Shuangshuang had ntally prepared herself. Her mask was firmly in place, revealing no improper expression or loss of composure. She smiled, her voice steady, "I didn’t expect it to be you, Mr. Jin. Please, co in!"
Shuangshuang didn’t pretend not to recognize him. After all, anyone who set foot in the entertainnt industry couldn’t possibly not know Jin An. Feigning ignorance would just show cowardice and make one look down on you.
Clearly, Shuangshuang’s deanor satisfied Jin An. As he was invited in to sit on the sofa, Jin An’s expression softened imperceptibly. Although he saw potential in Shuangshuang, his intent was to sign her personally.
However, if Shuangshuang were too stupid or pretentious, his proactive move would only be on behalf of the company, and he would arrange another agent for her. He would not personally manage her.
"This place is cramped and simple, not much to offer, so I’ll have to trouble Mr. Jin and this lady with a cup of plain water," Shuangshuang said with a light smile, placing two glasses of water in front of Jin An and the woman beside him, then casually sat opposite Jin An.
Jin An looked at the pretty, composed girl sitting opposite him, exuding a relaxed vibe.
Her attitude was endearing—not making anyone feel disregarded, nor constraint. Her simple gestures made people feel comfortable and at ease. This innate charm was indeed rare.
Satisfied, Jin An took a sip of water and said lightly, "Since you recognize , you must know my purpose in coming. Do you have any intention of joining our company? Of course, you can decide after reviewing our contract terms."
As Jin An spoke, the woman who accompanied him took out a light blue folder, placed it on the table, and pushed it toward Shuangshuang. Without hesitation, Shuangshuang picked up the folder and began to read the contract carefully, word by word.
I must say, the terms on the contract were incredibly favorable and flexible. It was the best contract Shuangshuang had seen during this period. For her current level, she couldn’t receive a better contract than this.
But there was no na written for the agent in the contract, aning Sky Company hadn’t assigned her an agent yet, which made Shuangshuang frown slightly.
Setting the contract aside, Shuangshuang didn’t rush to respond to Jin An’s previous question but instead smiled and asked, "May I know why your company is interested in ?"
Shuangshuang didn’t say that it was Jin An who was interested in her, because from the absence of a nad agent in the contract monts ago, it was clear that the superstar agent from Sky Company hadn’t made up his mind to personally manage her yet.
