Chapter 1050: Her Backer Is Herself
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Shengge finally chose her gown.
She glared at him angrily. “Got it.” Then, she grabbed the gown and rushed to the changing room.
Shang Tianyi clucked his tongue against the roof of his mouth and decided to walk around her dressing room. It was not the first time he had been to Ye Shengge’s dressing room, but he was always shocked.
‘Look, all the new products for this season are here. And these accessories… Woah, there’s another shelf of shoes and bags…’
‘Yet, this woman is not willing to participate in the event. Most of these clothes have not been exposed to the public before. What a waste, what a waste…’
When Ye Shengge came out after changing her clothes, she saw Shang Tianyi staring at her shoe rack with a drooling face.
“Let’s go!” She was amused. “If you want to wear it, I can lend it to you.”
“Forget it, I’m not interested in being a big shot in women’s clothing.” Shang Tianyi rolled his eyes. “However, are you really not going to consider taking on a variety show? The reality show is very popular now. I think you can do a reality show alone. For example, on a day when you’re a rich lady, I guarantee that many people will watch it…”
“Forget it.” Ye Shengge was speechless. “I’m not interested in showing off my private life.”
“You also said that Li Yinian’s persona is too ethereal. Didn’t you realize that your persona is even more unorthodox?” Shang Tianyi glanced at her. “All these years, you’ve only left behind three works and participated in a few talk shows and brand events. Before you could even take on an endorsement deal, you retired… You’re very secretive about your private life and you never interact with fans… Baby, that’s not what a celebrity should be like.”
Ye Shengge was very calm. “I never intended to be a celebrity. I just wanted to be an actress.”
“But now, the audience is only interested in celebrities.” Shang Tianyi tried his best to persuade her. “Pure actors are already alienated.”
“Tianyi, we have already discussed this.” Ye Shengge was a little helpless.
Shang Tianyi hoped that she would have the self-awareness of being a celebrity and fully invest herself in this fame and fortune scene. However, she actually did not like living under the spotlight, so she was very against activities other than acting.
She was willing to listen to Shang Tianyi’s arrangements because it meant that she was willing to let Shang Tianyi choose the script for her. However, it did not mean that she was willing to participate in the event. Shang Tianyi had always been brooding over this.
“Sigh, you’re just too rich. That’s why you don’t have enough motivation.” Thinking about her cloakroom, Shang Tianyi sighed.
Ye Shengge did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Shang Tianyi felt bitter as well. The two most talented artists under him did not have much ambition. Ye Shengge only wanted to act and did not care if she became famous or not. Li Yinian was even worse. She did not care about anything and simply felt cynical about fame. Therefore, although Shisheng Studio was prospering day by day, it was still lacking a top A-lister. This made Shang Tianyi feel a lack of sense of accomplishment.
However, after hearing his ridicule, not only did Ye Shengge not feel guilty, she even laughed out loud.
“You can just promote a newbie.”
“It’s not that easy.” Shang Tian covered his chest in anger. “Just be willful. Don’t cry when you don’t have anything to film in two years.”
Ye Shengge raised an eyebrow. “Then I’ll buy my own IP and invest myself.”
Shang Tianyi was thoroughly exasperated.
In the past, this woman’s backer was Mr. Ji. Now, she was her own backer. Therefore, she was becoming more and more fearless.
“Forget it. When you’re on set, try to keep a low profile and be nice to the staff. In this industry, it’s important to have good relationships,” Shang Tianyi said.
Ye Shengge nodded in acknowledgement.
