King of the Entertainment Industry (13)

After Yang Yaowei finished reading, he immediately smashed the whole room in anger.

Li Renwang dodged while softly comforting him at the side, but behind the lenses, a trace of contemptuous cold light flickered.

He also no longer understood why he had initially seen this person as someone he could support as “king.” Stripping away the so-called “talent,” what remained was a petty, selfish, resentful, narrow-minded man. Where was there any aura of a king?

Or perhaps it was because his status was too low that, like all those who achieved nothing, he only knew how to vent but did not know how to work hard to advance himself.

Li Renwang felt he was qualified to look down on this guy.

Because even though he too came from humble beginnings, he had relied on his own efforts to struggle to his current position. Except for misjudging Yang Yaowei, at other times, he was always smooth and able to secure maximum benefits for himself.

Now he could be considered lucky.

Although the bad luck brought by Yang Yaowei had not dispersed, being able to rely on the president of Xinghuang, getting work done, was already considered a promotion. Perhaps, in the future, even greater achievements might be possible.

However, this time after venting, Yang Yaowei, unlike before, did not fall into hysteria. Instead, he slammed his fist onto the table and said: “Renwang, just do as he says!”

Li Renwang was a little stunned: “Yaowei, if we do that, we won’t have any income.”

After being worn down several times, Yang Yaowei was no longer impulsive. His eyes flickered with hatred and ambition: “What we need now is not money, but fame. As long as one script hangs under our name, we will have fame, and then we can invest in more scripts. As long as we have a continuous output of scripts, even if all the profits are donated, in the end, we will still become famous screenwriters. Only then will there be possibilities for the future.”

Hearing him say this, Li Renwang’s expression changed slightly.

Yang Yaowei said hatefully: “What plagiarism, what defending rights? It’s all just a game in the hands of those with power! They win because they have a big enough reputation to be questioned! If we have enough fame and enough works, who would accuse us of plagiarism? By then, there will be plenty of people waving flags for us, and it will be impossible to nail us to the pillar of shame. If we have power, we can stir up the clouds and overturn the rain!”

What is reversing black and white compared to that?

Li Renwang frowned deeply, his heart hanging high.

Yang Yaowei continued: “Renwang, you handle this. I will write the next script. Weiwei is waiting for me to tell her a story.”

Hearing this, the heart Li Renwang had previously suspended finally lowered again. He respectfully responded: “Don’t worry, Yaowei, you just accompany Miss Weiwei. I will handle everything else.”

Yang Yaowei nodded reservedly: “Renwang, I trust you. When I succeed and become famous, you will be my most relied upon confidant.”

Li Renwang showed a trace of gratitude: “Thank you, Yaowei. I believe you will definitely succeed!”

Yang Yaowei returned to his room somewhat proudly.

Only after that did Li Renwang’s expression turn a bit contemptuous again.

Previously hearing Yang Yaowei’s words, he had almost thought this guy had developed some far-reaching plan. But once he heard the word “Weiwei,” he realized that maybe this guy had indeed gotten a bit smarter after being beaten down, but at the core, he was still just someone with only a woman in his brain. If he lost the support of the woman, he probably wouldn’t achieve anything either.

After sorting out the previous matters, Li Renwang carried his computer back to his room and secretly passed the information to his real boss.

No matter what, all of Yang Yaowei’s actions had to be reported to the boss.

On the other side, Gu Bai and Qiguan Rui both received feedback.

Gu Bai: “Learned to be obedient.”

This stallion man was trying to use plagiarized work to build his own fame! He really did get hit hard enough to start using his brain! Shamelessly using other people’s things to brush his own fame, hehe. @Unlimited Good Stories, only on Jinjiang Literature City

Then, Gu Bai gave Qiguan Rui a dead fish-eye stare.

This pervert just making the stallion man donate money, could that be all? @Unlimited Good Stories, only on Jinjiang Literature City

Qiguan Rui smiled gently: “Of course not.” As he spoke, he directly pulled Gu Bai into his arms, first softly sucking on his lips, then in a sticky voice, said, “Gege, don’t worry. Even if he wants to become famous, it will take time, and without fame… he’s just like a little bug. Lightly crush it, and it won’t even jump up.”

Gu Bai turned his head.

Qiguan Rui’s hand slid into his clothes and then pressed him down on the sofa, slowly removing his shirt and pants.

“A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold… Gege, at a time like this, let’s not think about annoying people, okay?” His breath grew ambiguous, becoming hotter and hotter, “Gege only think about me, okay?”

Gu Bai: “…”

Was it really appropriate for his body to be treated like this!

Besides, what spring night! It was obviously broad daylight now! Could you, this pervert, not treat every moment like a spring night?!

It was simply too much!

Soon, after getting everything ready, Qiguan Rui moved and merged with Gu Bai, gently saying as he kissed Gu Bai’s lips, “Mm… Gu Bai’s lips and tongue, such a delightful feeling.”

Gu Bai: “…”

He already knew nothing anymore.

Damn it, this normal human body was just way too weak!

No one knew how long had passed. When Gu Bai woke up, for the first time in years, he felt sore and limp all over, unable to even lift a finger.

Being done like this… it was simply unbearable, ah ah ah!

Luckily, when Gu Bai tried to get up but realized he couldn’t even move and was feeling somewhat angry, a pair of hands came from behind and wrapped him up, helping him to sit up.

Gu Bai’s mood improved a little.

The person behind him was undoubtedly the pervert.

Qiguan Rui handed over a prepared cup of warm water, bringing it to Gu Bai’s lips: “Gege, don’t be angry…”

Gu Bai, face blank, drank the water.

If I said I was angry, would you really not do it again next time?! Hypocrite!

Seeing Gu Bai like this, Qiguan Rui knew he wasn’t truly angry anymore. But the little bit of lingering anger still needed to be soothed… He thought for a moment and then said in a flattering tone: “Gege, you don’t really like that stallion guy, right? Want him to succeed? I’ve already taken some measures. Do you want to know?”

Gu Bai turned his head: “What.”

Hearing this pervert’s tone like offering a treasure, he really had a bit of small anticipation.

Qiguan Rui smiled: “Actually, it’s nothing too advanced. That guy wants to use plagiarism to become a famous screenwriter, to attract attention from people with high status, and thus raise his own standing, right? All those possibilities depend on him actually reaching that position first. I’ll just make sure he can’t reach it, cutting off his pitiful ambition.”

Gu Bai showed interest.

Qiguan Rui’s smile became even more gentle: “That guy wasn’t wrong about one thing. Power is important. If he had power, he might really be able to reverse black and white and call a deer a horse, making everyone believe him. But too bad — the one who can reverse black and white now is me.”

In short, it wasn’t even difficult.

That Leyang Entertainment company was newly established, and the boss was that Miss Weiwei — a daughter of a high-ranking official. The company was set up to invest in scripts. To put it nicely, it was to start a business; to put it less nicely, it was Weiwei using her private money to support her kept man.

Even so, a high-ranking official’s daughter’s private money was limited. Investing in TV dramas was possible, but making it high-quality was a bit tight financially.

Thus, Qiguan Rui didn’t need to do much else. He just needed to use Xinghuang Entertainment’s network to make some moves while they were forming their team, slightly delaying their progress. Leyang Entertainment would naturally encounter funding shortages. Then, under Li Renwang’s suggestion, they would have to find other investors to join the team — and that investor could obviously be Xinghuang Entertainment.

Yes, even though Xinghuang had previously tricked the stallion man twice, Xinghuang’s facilities and funding were the best. With Li Renwang’s subtle encouragement, and the stallion man’s own rationalization about Xinghuang knowing his past but still investing, he finally, with his fragile glass heart, agreed to Xinghuang’s investment.

The stallion man thought he was taking advantage of Xinghuang, planning to grab it after he succeeded!

— In his eyes, all the rich industries owned by his enemies would eventually become his stepping stones.

Thus, because of the stallion man’s guarded yet greedy mindset, Xinghuang successfully intervened in the drama’s production, investing a huge sum, aiming to make the drama a high-end masterpiece. The stallion, seeing the benefits, gradually became satisfied with Xinghuang’s involvement, especially when Xinghuang brought in many famous team members.

Thus, in order to ensure there were no bugs, the scriptwriting team alone had more than a dozen members.

Among them, several were gold-medal scriptwriters, all famous names.

The stallion originally thought this would polish his reputation, feeling proud to have so many famous writers under his lead. But he never realized this was just inviting wolves into his house!

After the drama was successfully produced, the screenwriting credits changed from him alone to a team of more than a dozen people.

Moreover, to enhance the drama’s prestige, the top names were all gold-medal scriptwriters!

Xinghuang said, it was for promotion…

The result was obvious.

The stallion’s goal of brushing fame completely failed. He merely became one of seven or eight new screenwriters.

Although he did get a bit of fame, unfortunately, people only admired that he managed to get “gilded,” but no one truly recognized him as someone capable.
