Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Signed Jiang Yan

Shen Lan knocked on the door before entering when Jiang Li was brewing tea in her room.

All the garish, gothic-style decorations were gone, and the walls had been painted a gentle aquamarine, giving the whole room an ancient charm. As soon as one stepped inside, it felt exceptionally soothing.

Her bedroom and study were separated by a pearwood screen. Jiang Li was sitting at the small tea table, carefully preparing the tea.

Her movements were slow and graceful, and her temperament was naturally elegant and aloof. Seated amidst the wafting sandalwood, she was a particularly delightful sight to behold. frёeωebɳovel.com

Even Shen Lan couldn’t bear to interrupt the scene and stood at the door, silently admiring it.

How had she never noticed how beautiful her niece was?

She’d be an instant sensation in the entertainment industry!

Jiang Li turned her head and saw Shen Lan staring intently at her with a crazy, stubborn look.

Jiang Li: "...."

"Cough cough, Second Aunt?"

Shen Lan snapped back to reality, her eyes twinkling as she walked over and sat beside her.

"Lili, I’ll get straight to the point," Second Aunt said, "would you be interested in joining the entertainment industry?"

Jiang Li looked at her in surprise.

Shen Lan quickly added, "If you’re considering getting into the entertainment industry, come straight to my company. Although Star Media hasn’t officially gone public yet, all the evaluations have been very favorable."

Jiang Li smiled, "But Second Aunt, I currently have no plans to make a career in the entertainment industry. Those things are not quite right for me."

"Why?" Shen Lan was somewhat astonished. "You have looks, brains, and charm. You would absolutely dominate the entertainment industry."

Jiang Li slowly picked up the teapot filled with bubbles and gently poured the tea into a glittering cup in front of her.

The aromatic scent of tea immediately filled the entire room.

She pushed one of the cups towards Shen Lan.

"But Second Aunt, everyone has their own aspirations, and mine do not lie in the entertainment industry," she said softly. "However, I can recommend someone to you."

"Who?"

"Jiang Yan."

Shen Lan’s eyes widened, "Am I hearing this correctly? You mean to say, you want me to sign Jiang Yan?"

"Right," Jiang Li nodded earnestly.

Shen Lan, however, picked up her cup with a laugh, "Don’t joke, how could Jiang Yan enter the entertainment field? Not to mention anything else, just his history of scandals, which haven’t been suppressed by our PR department despite working overtime, is more than all of you put together."

Jiang Li countered, "Infamy is still fame after all, and he has thick skin; he doesn’t care about these things."

"But with Jiang Yan’s temperamental and explosive nature, he isn’t cut out for the entertainment industry. He’s too lowbrow and would be a prime target for the media."

"It might be good for him to refine his temperament by entering the industry. Besides, doesn’t your company lack this type of artist right now?"

Shen Lan fell silent.

She pondered over Jiang Li’s words seriously.

Come to think of it, it made quite a lot of sense.

The entertainment industry was full of high-quality nice-guy celebrities, and fans had long become jaded. If a rebellious, unmanageable character suddenly appeared, he would certainly become a hot topic.

Seeing Shen Lan waver, Jiang Li took a sip of tea and continued, "Moreover, Jiang Yan does have many strengths. His acting skills are quite good, as everyone can see, and most importantly, he’s handsome and has a good physique. Even just as a pretty face, he’s more than qualified."

Shen Lan nodded in agreement.

The Jiang Family might have its share of faults, but when it came to looks, they were undoubtedly impeccable.

She was astonished at the sight of Jiang Mingyu the first time she saw him, and later, by a fortunate coincidence, she visited his home and met his relatives, which only deepened her amazement.

Jiang Yan’s appearance was also impeccable, presenting a beauty that was wild and slightly wicked, in complete contrast to Jiang Mingyu.

It wasn’t that the entertainment industry lacked this type, but often it took an entire team’s strategy and careful styling and makeup to create such a look.

But Jiang Yan was born with it.

With just that face, no additional effort needed, he could make hearts race.

What do the young people call it nowadays... sexual tension?

As for acting skills.

Shen Lan had already seen what he was capable of when Jiang Yan was in high school, avoiding classes and flitting between emotions to earn pocket money and charm his grandfather.

Though he might not be that professional, a bit of training should make him passable.

Shen Lan felt somewhat tempted.

Currently, her company was hanging by a thread with various variety shows, utterly incapable of promoting any artist with potential.

The popularity of these shows faded quickly, and if they truly wanted to make money and land sponsorships, they needed to cultivate a sensational celebrity.

"Alright, then I’ll go find Jiang Yan." Shen Lan seemed to make a decisive move with a clap of her hands, "But what are you planning to say to the old man?"

She knew the grandfather was vehemently opposed to entering the entertainment circle.

It had been a huge row over Jiang Mingyu’s situation before, and if he found out that she had signed Jiang Yan as well, wouldn’t that turn the house upside down?

"Don’t worry about it." Lili said with a smile, "I’ll figure out a way to handle it."

Had anyone else said this, Shen Lan might have laughed it off. Even after decades in the entertainment industry, she couldn’t fathom the old man’s temperament, unable to win him over.

But she believed Lili when she said it.

After all, it was this girl who had come to her with the same determination, helping her turn the tide and create a miracle.

"Okay, I’ll leave this to you. But don’t worry, my dear niece, I won’t let you work for nothing. I will add ten percent to your previous film fee. Just send me your bank account details later, and I’ll have finance transfer it to you."

"Thank you, Second Aunt."

"There’s no need to be so formal with family."

Even Shen Lan herself didn’t realize that, unconsciously, she had grown closer to the members of the Jiang Family and the family as a whole.

"By the way." She took out her handbag, "The main purpose of my visit today wasn’t this actually."

She pulled out an envelope and placed it in front of Lili.

"Have a look."

Lili opened the envelope, which contained an invitation with black and gold embossing.

"This is....."

"This is an invitation to the Du Sang gala. Du Sang is a domestic luxury brand with decent momentum. Every year around the start of autumn, they host a charity auction gala, and the guests are usually artists who have recently seen big success." Shen Lan explained, "Our show ’Flash Change’ is currently the hottest variety show, so you’re all on the guest list."

Lili fell into thought.

Shen Lan said, "I know you might not be keen on going, but the main thing is I want to use this opportunity for you all to make an appearance together and boost ’Flash Change’s visibility. But if you really don’t want to go, that’s okay too. I completely understand."

"It’s not that." Lili put away the invitation, "I was just thinking about something else."

She didn’t have any recollection of this gala from her past.

But it was just a minor charity auction event.

Shouldn’t be any trouble, right?
