Chapter 252: Chapter 252: The Arrogant and Crazy Female Celebrity_1
As she expected, her name was stained.
"Third Young Master Jun, I will boil and fry you one day, then simmer you into a delicious snake soup," muttered Ye Lu, disgruntled as she laid her head on the desk. She was truly helpless against this snake; he had her utterly under his control.
"General Manager, we’re in a huge mess." The Vice President rushed in, his face stricken with urgency.
"What’s happened?" Ye Lu frowned. She had only been gone for a few days, and already there was a problem?
"Our annual corporate advertising spokesperson is about to start filming, but the actress Xiao Ying suddenly wants to terminate her contract."
The yearly spokesperson advertisement was of great importance to the company, a major promotional project that had spent hundreds of millions in advertising fees.
Ye Lu sensed the severity of the situation. Her face paled instantly, her voice dropping, "Can we replace her with another actress?"
Vice President Yang was frantic, "We don’t have time to find someone else. The ad’s positioning and image have been created, and all our investments were tailor-made for Xiao Ying. If we replace her, all of our efforts would be wasted. Moreover, there’s not enough time to find a replacement. Xiao Ying is currently the hottest actress domestically; the other actresses either don’t fit the image or aren’t as popular."
Ye Lu understood that changing the leading lady at this stage would result in a tremendous loss.
She was distressed, "Did she say why she wanted to terminate the contract?"
"That’s unclear."
Just then, there was a commotion outside.
Ye Lu picked up her internal phone and asked what was happening. Her secretary mentioned that Xiao Ying’s manager was here with Xiao Ying, causing a fuss about terminating the contract.
Ye Lu was fuming, "Let them in."
"President Ye, keep your cool. Try to persuade her calmly. Female celebrities can be quite haughty. Adding fuel to the fire and driving her away will do us no good, and our losses will be even greater."
Ye Lu clenched her fists, took a deep breath, swallowed her anger, "I understand."
Xiao Ying was indeed a snobbish actress. She had numerous assistants attending to her, attempting to appease her. Wearing sunglasses as she entered, she gave off a goddess-like, elegant aura but was also arrogant.
Sitting there with one leg over the other, she casually nodded at Ye Lu.
In just a short period, Ye Lu searched for and studied every piece of information about this star on the internet. She indeed was a hot commodity with numerous scandals about having a powerful sugar daddy behind her. As a result, many people in the industry feared her. She was pampered to the extreme and had an extremely imperious attitude.
Ye Lu furrowed her brow. This wasn’t going to be an easy battle.
"Miss Xiao Ying, I would like to ask, was your termination due to dissatisfaction with your remuneration or any such thing? These can be negotiated." Ye Lu tried to appear gracious and enthusiastic.
Xiao Ying arrogantly adjusted her fashionable sunglasses, lifting her chin high,
"The termination is my personal reason. I just don’t want to endorse Yaxing anymore. It’s that simple. Let’s not waste words here, hurry up and terminate the contract. I need to make it to my next appointment. My appearance fee is calculated by the minute; you can’t afford it!"
Her arrogant and brash tone clearly stated she didn’t take Ye Lu seriously.
Ye Lu was furious. Not only was she unreasonably terminating the contract, but she was also incredibly arrogant. She wanted to tear off her sunglasses, slap her twice, and throw her off the twenty-fifth floor! Let’s see her continue with her attitude then!
Wait, how did she end up adopting Third Young Master Jun’s violent mindset?
"President Ye, keep your cool, don’t lose your temper." Vice President Yang lowered his voice and gestured at her, reminding her that Xiao Ying was backed by a powerful sugar daddy and thus had nothing to fear.
