Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Because of Me!_1

"Li Siqi, 24 years old this year, graduated from the Performance Department of Feng City Art & Media University, with two younger brothers at home, one of whom is named Li Liwei, who accrued a colossal gambling debt of three million yuan at the Tao Family Casino in Jiangnan City half a month ago!"

"The reason you agreed to accompany Tao Donghao and his guests tomorrow night is not only because they promised to let you be the lead actress in ’Date with the Beauty’ but also because they are offering you an acting fee of five million yuan!"

"With that five million, you can not only pay off your brother’s gambling debt but also afford treatment for your mother who is hospitalized with liver cancer!"

"Miss Li, tell me if I’m wrong?"

Just as Li Siqi was about to leave, Mo Han’s voice, like a spell, suddenly rang in her ears.

"You! How do you know that?"

Li Siqi turned around abruptly, her eyes filled with wariness, "Who exactly are you? Why are you investigating me?"

Gui Ruyun hurried over to speak, "Siqi, Big Brother Mo is..."

Before she could finish, Li Siqi interrupted her, "Ru Yun, if you consider me a friend, then don’t speak!"

"I already said I am Miss Gui’s friend."

Mo Han stated indifferently, "If it weren’t for Miss Gui’s repeated requests, do you think I would bother helping you, you pitiful fool?"

Li Siqi’s pupils shrank, and her tone turned colder, "Who did you call a fool? Who’s the pitiful one?"

"Heh, aren’t you the fool and pitiful one?"

Mo Han sneered, "Let’s not even talk about your brother Li Liwei being set up to accrue a massive gambling debt of three million yuan. Just consider yourself, do you really think that after spending one night with Tao Donghao, director Huang Sanwen, and investor Luo Hao, you will get to be the lead actress in ’Date with the Beauty’?"

"’Date with the Beauty’ has an investment of a whole three hundred million. Do you know how many top-tier celebrities and popular young actresses are scrambling to be the lead actress?"

"Who do you think you are? A top-tier actress? Or a trending popular young actress?"

"You are nothing! You are merely a bottom-feeder in the entertainment circle, an eighteen-tier actress—no, you don’t even deserve to be called an actress; at best, you’re just a garbage extra."

"You, a garbage extra, still dreaming of fame? Dreaming of becoming a movie lead actress, pah! You’re not even fit for an erotic movie!"

A bombardment of cutting remarks made Li Siqi tremble all over. For the past three years, she had been to dozens of production teams and played countless extras. Aside from helping alleviate her family’s burdens, she had been working hard in the hopes of one day standing on the big screen and becoming the lead actress in the spotlight.

But now, Mo Han’s words shattered her dreams.

Indeed, without connections, without background, without money, on what basis could she become a movie lead actress?

Her body?

Which of the popular young actresses weren’t more attractive than she was?

If she had to talk about her advantages, perhaps it would be her natural looks and slightly better figure.

But based on those alone, how could she possibly land the lead role in the three hundred million-invested ’Date with the Beauty’?

Seeing Mo Han disparage her best friend so harshly, Gui Ruyun’s face immediately turned pale, and for an instant, she felt she was mistaken. If she had known this would happen, she would not have asked Big Brother Mo to come.

"I’ll ask you again, how much do you know about Tao Donghao?"

Mo Han completely ignored the signs from Gui Ruyun and continued, "Do you really think he’s just some rich playboy, someone who just plays around with women?"

Li Siqi frowned and coldly replied, "I’ve been around the entertainment industry for three years, of course, I know Tao Donghao is no good."

"But I have no way out now..."

As she spoke the latter part, her emotions visibly sank.

Taking a pause, Li Siqi still shouldered her bag and sincerely said to Mo Han, "Mister Mo, I know you mean well, and I also know that even if Tao Donghao and his people sleep with me, I might still not get any movie resources."

"But I have no alternative left, I’ll bear the consequences of my own decisions!"

"Mister Mo, Ru Yun, thank you both!"

After speaking, she bowed to both of them and turned to leave once more.

"I can help you!"

Mo Han extended a hand, blocking Li Siqi’s path, "Whether it’s your brother’s gambling debt or your dream of acting, I can help you achieve it all!"

"Mister Mo? You?"

Li Siqi chuckled, having sized up Mo Han from head to toe since he came in, his entire outfit didn’t even amount to two hundred yuan. Someone like him, a loser claiming to help her, was making an absurd promise, utterly laughable.

"Yes, me!"

Indifferent to the skeptical look Li Siqi was giving him, Mo Han tore off a sticky note from the table, wrote down a string of telephone numbers, and said calmly, "Call President Ling and tell her I referred you. She’ll help you sort out everything."

Li Siqi instinctively asked, "Who is she?"

Mo Han smiled slightly, "Ling Yuzhu, the General Manager of Shengtian Group!"

Shengtian Group, the undisputed top enterprise in Jiangling City, with its subsidiary Shengtian Entertainment, while not as dominant and monopolistic as the Tao Family in Jiangnan City, certainly led the way in Jiangling’s entertainment industry.

Over the years, quite a few top-tier stars with great reputations have emerged from Shengtian Group. These celebrities are known for their talent and moral integrity, rarities in the entertainment circle.

However, artists under Shengtian Entertainment are relatively few due to the company’s stringent selection criteria; not only must the candidates fulfill physical appearance and figure requirements, but their talents must also pass with flying colors.

Bearing the industry’s acclaimed reputation, Shengtian Entertainment’s artists almost don’t need to seek exposure to obtain a variety of resources.

It’s no exaggeration to say that Shengtian Entertainment is the grand company that all performers dream of joining!
