Chapter 181 Blood-sucking
"What's the rush? This is just the beginning. The real fun is yet to come!"
The agent was practically jumping up and down, "You're really my ancestor! Did I owe you money in my past life? Don't you know what time it is? It's a matter of life and death, aren't you worried?"
The agent felt that Gu Wen still couldn't see the situation clearly, so she analyzed it for her, "Do you really have to wait until netizens expose your Weibo before you stop?"
Right now, only ordinary netizens are making a fuss; Yuan Sixiao's fans are still in the wait-and-see stage.
"If you really anger them, given the sheer number of Yuan Sixiao's fans, they could drown you with their spittle!"
Gu Wen swirled her coffee cup leisurely, showing no sign of being in a hurry.
She said casually, "The statement can be issued, but how it's issued is up to me."
Then, he offered a perfunctory reassurance: "Don't worry, I won't joke about my own career. You're tied to me, we share the same fate, so I certainly won't let you suffer any losses."
"However, you're too timid. You know, in our line of work, the bold get rich, and the timid starve."
"I'm not going to let this popularity I've managed to get go away; I'm going to make it snowball and grow bigger and bigger."
Seeing her agent's disbelieving look, Gu Wen raised an eyebrow and said, word by word, "Haven't you heard? The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!"
"As long as you do as I say, I guarantee you'll live a life of luxury!"
The agent didn't want to listen, but there was nothing she could do about Gu Wen.
His job as an agent is really frustrating.
In other companies, the power of speech is in the hands of the agent, but in his case, it's the complete opposite.
At work, everyone envies him and praises his good taste; he picked Gu Wen at first glance.
Gu Wen's fame is growing, and although she hasn't reached the level of a top-tier singer yet, she's completely different from the unknown person she was at the beginning.
But only he himself knew that he never had the power to speak.
He said he was the agent, but in the end, it was Gu Wen who was chosen.
If Gu Wen doesn't agree, then things can't proceed.
Gu Wen is usually very easy to talk to, and she knows how to give him face in front of outsiders.
But only he himself could sense the domineering nature within him.
Gu Wen was also lucky; at the beginning, Yuan Sixiao took a liking to her and gave her a lot of help.
In Gu Wen's early stages, he was like a mentor.
Just as he was feeling fortunate and thought that Gu Wen's career would take off from there,
No one knows what happened, but the two of them suddenly had a falling out.
Teacher Yuan Sixiao's attitude made a complete 180-degree turn, and from then on she began to deliberately avoid Gu Wen, treating her like a stranger.
He even had a vague feeling that Teacher Yuan Sixiao disliked Gu Wen.
Although he had no evidence.
He couldn't understand Gu Wen's actions at all.
She was like a mindless single-celled organism, completely ignoring Yuan Sixiao's cold face, and shamelessly continued to take advantage of him and act like a bully.
Not long after, Gu Wen caught the attention of higher-ups, and seized the opportunity swiftly and decisively to take down the other party.
Only then did he stop clinging to Yuan Sixiao.
But if there's something profitable for Yuan Sixiao, she'll still come over.
Like this time, Gu Wen's resources are actually quite good.
But she was determined to be the female lead in Yuan Sixiao's music video, and even wanted to get involved in Yuan Sixiao's single, turning it into a duet.
He even went so far as to curry favor with the higher-ups and get them to put pressure on Yuan Sixiao.
Even he felt that Gu Wen was bullying him.
For a singer-songwriter, songs are his life.
Gu Wen's attempt to reap the fruits of others' labor is something no one would agree to.
Moreover, Yuan Sixiao helped Gu Wen when she was at her lowest point. To put it bluntly, without Yuan Sixiao's support, Gu Wen might still be stuck in some obscure corner right now.
Gu Wen's actions are no different from repaying kindness with enmity.
Sometimes the agent felt that Gu Wen was frighteningly cold, and sometimes she would back down, worried that after she was no longer useful, she would be used as a stepping stone for Gu Wen.
Even if he gets kicked out and fired, it's not scary. What's scary is that Gu Wen will squeeze out his last bit of value to pave the way for her.
But he had no say; Gu Wen was protected by higher-ups, and he would be in trouble if he upset her.
He believed that Gu Wen would make it impossible for him to survive in this industry.
Gu Wen only needed to act cute towards the higher-ups to completely crush their spirits.
Therefore, he had no choice but to obey.
Ten minutes later, Gu Wen's statement went viral, turning the tide of public opinion against the Yuan family, which had just begun to improve.
The statement is as follows:
I'm sorry for taking up public resources; I didn't mean to.
But I really didn't expect to be photographed by paparazzi when I went to see him.
Nothing ever happened during our previous meetings, but this time...
Please stop making wild guesses. My relationship with Senior Yuan Sixiao is just that of a senior and junior colleague.
I admire and respect him greatly; he is my idol.
I'd do anything for him.
Previously, due to some issues, Senior Yuan Sixiao had some misunderstandings about me.
But everything has been explained today. Currently, Mr. Yuan and I are discussing his new album.
You should be able to see me in Senior Yuan's new song, so please look forward to it!
……
When Yuan Yangyang saw Gu Wen's statement, she was furious.
"She's so shameless! What does she mean by 'nothing ever happens every time we meet'? She acts like she's really close to my second brother?"
This was clearly her first time visiting my second brother's house, and she came uninvited. Her words were so ambiguous; she did it on purpose!
"And this line, 'I'd do anything for my second brother,' ugh, it's disgusting, I feel like throwing up!"
"My second brother clearly rejected her collaboration, so why is she deliberately misleading netizens and shamelessly claiming that she will be featured in his new song? That's incredibly shameless!"
"Does she think that as long as she issues a statement and exposes the matter, her second brother will swallow his pride and admit it? How arrogant! Absolutely shameless!"
The others were also furious.
Yuan's mother felt mostly heartache.
I've never paid attention to my second child's work before, partly because our family isn't involved in the entertainment industry and I don't know much about it, so I was afraid of doing more harm than good.
On the other hand, the second son is talented, famous, well-known, and has many fans who support him.
She thought that a star like the second son, who had already established himself and could generate considerable revenue for the company, should not be made difficult by the company, even if he wasn't the center of attention.
After all, who can resist money?
Given the second son's fame, he's like a golden rooster that lays golden eggs; wherever he goes, he'll be fawned over and pampered.
Unexpectedly, there were actually blind and brain-dead people who would bully her son like that.
She was also entangled with an ungrateful singer.
She just checked online and found that Gu Wen's number of fans is only a fraction of the second oldest's.
I don't know where she got the nerve to bully her son again and again.
Do you really think her Yuan family is a pushover?
Even if her family isn't involved in the entertainment industry, it wouldn't be difficult for them to destroy a relatively unknown minor celebrity and a small entertainment company.
Yuan's mother pinched Yuan's father hard, and when he looked at her with a wronged expression, she turned her head away, leaving only the back of her head for him to see.
Mr. Yuan rubbed his aching arm, wanting to ask his wife what was wrong.
However, Yuan's mother clearly refused to communicate, so Yuan's father had to rack his brains to come up with an answer on his own.
All those years of marriage weren't for nothing. Seeing the tender look in Yuan's mother's eyes as she looked at her second son, Yuan's father understood everything.
Well, it turns out I've been caught in the crossfire.
Mr. Yuan was helpless.
However, he didn't feel wronged. If it weren't for what happened today, he really wouldn't have expected that his second brother's situation in the company would be like this.
I haven't shown enough care for my sons before.
I thought the second son was doing very well in the entertainment industry, but I didn't expect him to be targeted as well.
He had heard that you couldn't survive in the entertainment industry without a powerful backer, and he always thought that with the Yuan family as a powerful force, no one would be foolish enough to mess with them.
Now it seems that this is not the case at all.
He was too confident.
It seems we can consider expanding the company's business further; at the very least, we can get a piece of the entertainment industry.
Although venturing into an unknown field and stepping out of one's comfort zone inevitably requires investments that outweigh the returns in the early stages.
But the Yuan family has no shortage of money.
If he wants to do something, he can throw money at it and create a huge mess in the entertainment industry.
Then we'll see who dares to bully the second son.
Besides, Lao Wu and Yang Yang are also in the circle, and Lao Si is practically an insider.
With this in mind, Mr. Yuan immediately felt that entering the entertainment industry was imperative.
And they were very anxious.
The second one is one thing, but Yangyang is a newcomer to the industry and is more likely to be bullied.
I can't let my precious daughter, whom I finally found, be bullied.
Why didn't he think of entering the entertainment industry before?
What a miscalculation.
I don't know if it's too late.
But right now, I need to appease my wife first.
Mr. Yuan leaned closer and whispered in Mrs. Yuan's ear, "Let's see how our son handles it first. You have to trust him."
If he can't handle it, I, as his father, certainly won't stand idly by.
Yuan's mother glanced at him irritably and didn't want to talk to him.
Mr. Yuan chuckled, knowing that his wife had agreed with his plan.
Then, he stood by and watched, saying nothing more.
He wanted to see how the kids would handle this situation.
Yuan Sixiao almost laughed in anger when he saw Gu Wen's statement, "She did it on purpose!"
"The purpose of giving such an ambiguous answer is to lead netizens to suspect and speculate that there is something between us, thus confirming the previous paparazzi reports."
"After what she did, I'm afraid many netizens will feel deceived by me and the Yuan family, and the authenticity of the Yuan family's previous statement will definitely be questioned."
"I'm afraid a lot of netizens are criticizing me right now."
"I really underestimated her. It wasn't enough for her to cling to me and suck my blood; she even went so far as to act first and ask for my permission later."
"Does she think I'd compromise and agree to let her be associated with my work just because of a few insults from netizens? Dream on!"
As soon as Yuan Sixiao finished speaking, before he could do anything else, his phone suddenly rang.
