1502 Carve A Way Out Of The Industry
Su Bei said in a low voice, “Brother Yue Ze, let’s go!”
Both of them walked out.
When they left, the entire private room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
By the river.
Su Bei handed a can of beer to Yue Ze.
He took it and gulped it down. Then, he raised his head dejectedly and looked at Su Bei. “Su Bei, don’t you think I’m a failure?”
“They’ll regret looking down on you.” Su Bei took a sip of beer.
Yue Ze continued to drink his beer.
The series of events had dealt him a huge blow.
A man’s voice came from behind. “Brother Yue Ze!”
Yue Ze turned around and saw that it was a small-time artiste in Sheng Tang. He had appeared in the private room just now, but because he did not have much experience, he did not interrupt. He felt like he did not even have the right to talk to Yue Ze.
“Mu Kai? Why are you looking for me?” Yue Ze looked at him indifferently.
“I-I want to follow you,” Mu Kai said.
He was quite tall, but his facial features were average. He used to be a male model, but he hadn’t made a name for himself even after working for a long time.
Yue Ze had many artistes under him, and he was not outstanding among them.
Yue Ze had even forgotten when he signed him.
Yue Ze laughed and said, “You saw what happened just now, right? I’ve gone to Nirvana Entertainment. I’m Sheng Tang Entertainment’s enemy. If you follow me, you won’t do well in the future. You won’t be able to return to Sheng Tang Entertainment even if you want to. If you stay in Sheng Tang Entertainment, you still have some prospects.”
“Brother Yue Ze, I’ve already made up my mind,” Mu Kai said solemnly.
“Oh? Then tell me, why do you want to follow me?” Yue Ze no longer held out hope for this group of people.
Mu Kai said, “From a personal point of view, when I came to Sheng Tang Entertainment and was bullied, you helped stop it and took the initiative to bring me under your wing. From a realistic point of view, now that you’ve left, I can’t get any better resources anyway. I might as well leave with you and get another chance.”
Yue Ze stood up and patted his shoulder. “Alright, you can follow me. It just so happens that I have no one under me now.”
“Brother Yue Ze, I’m not joking,” Mu Kai said seriously.
Yue Ze threw away the can of beer and looked at him. “I’m not joking. Come on. The contract will be signed in two days! Go to Sheng Tang Entertainment first and settle the contract termination…”
Mu Kai took out his termination agreement. “It’s done.”
He was not famous in Sheng Tang Entertainment to begin with. When he proposed to terminate his contract, Sheng Tang Entertainment was already in a terrible fix. When they heard that he was going to follow Yue Ze, they mocked him while approving the termination of his contract. Everyone was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Su Bei and Yue Ze immediately brought Mu Kai back to Nirvana Entertainment.
Since Mu Kai had chosen to trust Yue Ze, Yue Ze did not want to let him down.
Su Bei carefully examined Mu Kai’s appearance for a while. His appearance and facial features were relatively rough. He did not have the exquisite looks that were popular nowadays.
However, he was tall. He was 1.87 meters tall and had very broad shoulders. Even among the models, his figure was outstanding.
However, he was a little too thin, and his aura was not strong enough.
After observing him for a while, Su Bei said to Yue Ze, “Brother Yue Ze, what do you think about letting Mu Kai grow a beard?”
“Sure! Why didn’t I think of that?” Yue Ze immediately nodded in agreement.
Su Bei immediately called the stylist in and pasted a beard on Mu Kai to create a new image.
Nowadays, everyone in the market was pursuing young celebrities. In order to cater to this, many companies, regardless of whether their artistes were suitable or not, were targeting young celebrities. Even models were no exception.
Previously, Yue Ze had many people on his side, so he rarely paid attention to Mu Kai.
Soon, Mu Kai appeared with a faux beard Even the stylist was surprised. “This style is really good. It suits Mu Kai very well. He looks like a gentlemanly yuppie.”
The more Su Bei looked at him, the more she felt that his appearance was very good. He had the style of a masculine man. Even if she couldn’t compare his looks to those young hunks, his temperament was still noteworthy. This mature and elite style would also be widely praised. It would make a way for him in the industry.
Su Bei looked at him for a moment more, then frowned.
Mu Kai was not confident in his looks to begin with. Seeing Su Bei frown, he panicked. “Mr. Su, do you think I’m not suitable?”
“It’s not that your appearance isn’t suitable. It’s just that you’re too thin. From today onward, you should work out in the company every day. You’re so thin. It’s really a waste of your height and shoulders.”
Only then did Mu Kai feel relieved. He said shyly, “Previously, Sheng Tang Entertainment asked everyone to lose weight. We couldn’t be too fat or too muscular, so I didn’t dare to eat or train. I was afraid that my muscles wouldn’t look good.”
“You don’t have to compare yourself to those young hunks. You’re you. In 10 days, there’ll be a big show in S Country. If you can use these ten days to quickly train your figure, I can help you fight for an opportunity,” Su Bei said.
Mu Kai was pleasantly surprised. “Really?”
“What’s in it for me to lie to you?”
Yue Ze patted Mu Kai’s shoulder. “Train well.”
He sent Mu Kai to make some simple arrangements, then returned to Su Bei. “Su Bei, that big show is an international one. Can Mu Kai really do it?”
“A type of man like him is quite rare in the domestic market. It should be possible to fight for a chance for him. The premise is that his basic skills shouldn’t fall behind.”
Yue Ze immediately said, “I’ll keep an eye on him.”
Su Bei believed in Yue Ze’s strength.
After that, she continued to film the next scenes on set. Feng Ze stayed on set for a few days before leaving.
It was as if he had never been there.
Feng Ze hated Su Bei very much. The outside world had originally paid the movie a lot of attention, but because of this, they began to doubt it.
After all, if the key figures in the production were in conflict, it gave a reason for the people to think the final work would be bad.
Fortunately, the filming went very smoothly.
After filming that day, Su Bei agreed to go back with Lu Heting to visit Old Master Lu and Old Madam Lu.
Seeing the two of them return, the butler beamed and welcomed them in.
After entering, Su Bei saw that there weren’t just the two elders there.
There were also people from the Fu family—Fu Jiangcheng, Madam Fu, Fu Xing, and Fu Yujia.
Fu Xing had always had a good relationship with Lu Heting, but because of Fu Yujia’s matter, they were estranged. The two families gradually stopped interacting with each other.
Su Bei received a few unfriendly gazes and instantly understood. She knew that Lu Heting’s childhood sweetheart and her family were probably unwilling to accept the fact that Lu Heting was already married.
