The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 366: This is the sugar daddy! [3 updates]

Chen Li was an agent at Skywalk Entertainment, and she had once brought up an international movie king.

However, after the international movie king terminated his contract with Skywalk Entertainment, Chen Li no longer had a top artist under her wing, with the most famous one being just a second-tier star, and her status had plummeted.

That was until this year when Chen Li brought up a Ye Xi.

After Ye Xi finished filming “Powdered Spy Shadow” with Shang Yaozhi, she shot to fame and became the hottest in-demand female star with countless fans.

Chen Li’s status in Skywalk Entertainment naturally rose with the tide, as many artists wanted to sign with her.

Ye Xi was currently thriving, with endless invitations, and Chen Li didn’t have to worry at all.

She chose a few newcomers and sent them to participate in “Youth 202”.

Even before the auditions for “Youth 202” began, Chen Li had already taken note of Yun Heyue.

There were many beauties in the entertainment industry—many who were more beautiful than Yun Heyue.

But talented youngsters were indeed becoming rarer and rarer nowadays.

Shang Yaozhi was an exceptional case.

Chen Li decisively contacted Yun Heyue, intending to sign her.

After several attempts, she was rejected.

A promising seedling that couldn’t be signed by her, Chen Li also wouldn’t allow Yun Heyue to enter a rival company.

Otherwise, with Yun Heyue’s capabilities, if she debuted, she would certainly become a new top trend in the entertainment industry.

Taking advantage of the situation, she still had the power to suppress Yun Heyue.

With five minutes left before the singing audition finished, Chen Li greeted one of the music instructors, planning to use up all the time originally allotted for Yun Heyue.

This instructor had a deep relationship with her; thus, Yun Heyue’s singing score would only amount to zero.

Even if Yun Heyue’s dance score was perfect, it would not surpass the contestants Chen Li had brought.

She just wanted to suppress Yun Heyue, to corner her into a dead end.

That way, Yun Heyue would either have to sign a contract with her, or she’d have to roll out of the entertainment industry without any chance of singing or dancing.

Yun Heyue ignored Chen Li and took out her phone to type a message to Ying Zijin.

[Sister, it’s okay.]

[They’re all weak, I can make it into the top ten just by dancing.]

Ying Zijin fell silent for a split second.

It reminded her of Tinglan’s comment about the kids in the Elite Class being foolish.

“First place is yours, if it’s meant to be,” Ying Zijin opened WeChat and sent a message to her female secretary.

After sending it, she sat down and said indifferently, “Wait a moment and have something to eat.”

She promised Yu Xuesheng she would take care of Yun Heyue, and she would help her to the end.

Yun Heyue obediently sat down with her.

Watching this scene, Chen Li approached.

She didn’t take Ying Zijin seriously at all—an assistant was nothing to worry about.

“Yun Heyue, as a senior in the entertainment circle, I advise you to just be obedient,” Chen Li smiled, “Signing a contract is just about a name, and you don’t have a company. Do you really think you can debut in the end?”

Talent shows are all about capital competition.

Yun Heyue continued to ignore Chen Li, playing the Match-3 game online with Ying Zijin.

Chen Li frowned, displeased, but just as she was about to speak again, the hall door was suddenly pushed open.

A roar startled the contestants waiting outside, carrying a sense of urgency and frustration.

“Who’s using someone else’s audition time? Huh? Get out here now! Do you think you own this place? Hurry up! Get out! Don’t make me say it again!”

Chen Li’s smile froze, she looked up abruptly, her expression changing: “Producer Li?”

Producer Li didn’t even glance at Chen Li as he stormed to the studio door and kicked it open again.

Pointing to the contestant still inside, he scolded in front of everyone, “Do you think you’re God, that everyone should cater to you? Taking someone else’s time? What rubbish!”

The contestants were scolded into shock.

Including the music instructor who had a deal with Chen Li, his face turned pale.

Producer Li, still fuming after his tirade, threw his folder onto the floor with a thud, “Want to get more screen time, is that it? Scores will be given strictly by performance, and anyone maliciously using others’ time will have their scores halved!”

Producer Li was in a panic himself.

Whether it’s these auditions or future performance voting, manipulation by the major companies was expected.

Without backing, suppression was common in the entertainment industry.

Producer Li had never taken the auditions that seriously, but a phone call from Chuguang Media had hit him like a ton of bricks.

The message was this —

“What great authority the production team has, failing to maintain fairness and the interests of the contestants. What’s the point of holding the competition? No need to continue.”

Chuguang Media was the biggest investor this time, even surpassing Skywalk Entertainment as one of the sponsors.

They were the major backers!

What if they became displeased and withdrew funding?

After the call, Producer Li rushed over from his office in a flurry.

As for Chen Li?

Could she compare with a major backer?

Producer Li finally caught his breath and turned his head, “Next contestant, you go in. Take your time. We’ve extended it for you, so don’t feel pressured.”

Chen Li’s face turned pale.

Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair, her posture lazy, and she slightly lifted her chin, signaling to Yun Heyue to take his time.

It was then that Yun Heyue went in.

The contestant inside the recording studio came out looking disheveled.

Chen Li was shaking all over with anger.

But she was facing the chief producer and was helpless, so she had to hold her breath.

The contestant hung his head, “I’m sorry, Sister Li.”

“He just got lucky.” Chen Li’s chest heaved as she let out a cold laugh, “Today it just so happened that the chief producer came and saved Yun Heyue once. I want to see if he will have the same good luck next time.”

She had spent over a decade in the entertainment industry and had plenty of tricks up her sleeve. Yun Heyue was no match for her.

“Go to the dance studio,” Chen Li picked up her bag and said coldly, “You still have to dance later. Make sure to perform well. The company won’t let the show’s crew cut your screen time.”

Yun Heyue finished recording very quickly.

He was usually quiet and reserved, yet his voice was incredibly powerful, effortlessly capturing everyone’s attention.

As expected, he scored the only perfect score.

The same went for the dance.

After Yun Heyue finished his dance, he appeared to have done so with ease, no sign of exertion.

After bowing to the several instructors, he walked out of the dance studio.

The two instructors spoke with each other.

“Yun Heyue’s waist is so flexible.” The female instructor couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s rare for a male to achieve what he has. I’m starting to wonder if he’s actually a girl.”

“That’s impossible,” the male instructor shook his head, “If he were a girl, how could he have been selected? But his strength is indeed too strong. His singing and dancing skills are at a different level; the other students really can’t compare.”

“I think he’ll take the first ‘A’ at the initial ranking.”

The female instructor agreed, “However, he also has a major flaw. His facial expression management is very poor; he hardly ever smiles.”

The two instructors merely chatted casually, and as for the final outcome, no one knew.

**

Ying Zijin was waiting outside.

The audition videos were confidential, only accessible to instructors, production team, and the management level like directors.

Neither agents nor contestants would have them made public.

But as a sugar daddy, Ying Zijin easily obtained the dance studio video from her female secretary and watched Yun Heyue’s dance.

Indeed, she still preferred watching beautiful girls; they were pleasing to the eye.

After Yun Heyue washed his hands, he handed her his phone.

Ying Zijin looked down at it.

There were two sentences on it.

[“Sister, I heard from Brother Xuesheng that you like money.”]

[“I can help you make money. Someone has offered to pay me for singing; I can sell one song for ten thousand.”]

Then, Yun Heyue typed another line.

[“I just need food and clothes.”]

Yun Heyue was still wearing his dance outfit, with cool-toned eyeshadow applied.

Ying Zijin noticed that there were many scars on his wrists, large and small.

Even though they were covered with foundation, you could still see them if you looked carefully.

It wasn’t hard to imagine how many times he had been abused before.

“No need,” Ying Zijin shook her head slightly, chuckling, “I don’t lack money.”

She really didn’t lack money now, but she still enjoyed the pleasure of making money.

After all, on the NOK forum, there were always fools sending her money.

Especially that bounty of a translation job posted with an offer of five million.

She had no idea who could be so foolish as to spend so much, and she wasn’t interested in finding out.

“Let’s go,” Ying Zijin smoothed her sleeves and put on her hat.

She asked Yun Heyue to go ahead, and she followed behind.

After all, she was an assistant now.

Sometimes, playing such a role could be quite interesting.

Meanwhile, in the hall behind them, Chen Li stood there with an ugly expression on her face.

She had already tried to interfere once, but Yun Heyue still managed to score a double full mark.

The second-place contestant was more than forty points behind Yun Heyue, which showed how terrifying Yun Heyue’s singing and dancing abilities were.

But Chen Li really couldn’t understand why Producer Li would suddenly come over and, moreover, make her lose face.

She took out her phone and dialed a number.
