Chapter 284: Her deskmate (41)
World Eight. Her deskmate (41)
Gu Xuan's company arranged a series of activities for Su Xiangnan.
Soon, when the second issue of the magazine was published, he already had a group of fans and a fan club. Although he was still far from being a popular newcomer, Su Xiangnan won in terms of public favorability.
As an amateur without excessive marketing, although his sudden popularity caused some people to have a rebellious mentality, Su Xiangnan's title as the "top scorer in the science stream" set him apart from online idol stars and made him a breath of fresh air.
His solid achievements cannot be questioned by anyone.
More and more people got to know of Su Xiangnan. Young people like to introduce him to their parents by adding the prefix "He is the top scorer in science in our city this year" to gain their parents' approval.
Most parents cannot accept their children being obsessed with idols because they are worried about the negative influence and lack of focus on their studies. However, if idols can serve as role models, parents' rejection will also decrease significantly.
It has to be said that Gu Xuan has a keen eye and has captured this psychology. Su Xiangnan has not only established a presence among young people but also among the middle-aged and elderly groups who do not usually chase after idols but have greater purchasing power. He has opened up another path.
Building brand awareness for him is not the most valuable aspect; it is the creation of a positive image.
A successful stepping stone can make the following things get twice the result with half the effort.
However, Su Xiangnan didn't feel anything about it. Although Gu Xuan had approached him once, implying that the company had prepared a second contract for him, as long as Su Xiangnan signed it, he would become the first person in Gu Xuan's new management company. This means that all resources will be poured into him. Even if Su Xiangnan's future path does not go smoothly, as long as he seizes the opportunity in these two or three years and makes a good profit, he won't have to worry about his livelihood in the latter half of his life.
Unfortunately, Su Xiangnan's attitude remained firm.
"Opportunities wait for no one."
Gu Xuan didn't force it, but with a meaningful tone, he patted Su Xiangnan's shoulder, indicating that Su Xiangnan could change his mind at any time within the expiration of the first contract.
Su Xiangnan mentioned this matter when he was on the phone with Xue Xue.
Xue Xue pondered over it.
Recently, while observing the online trends and analyzing the situation, she tried to sort out her thoughts. Although it felt somewhat paranoid, Xue Xue still believed in her intuition. In her opinion, intuition was not only instinctive but also accumulated through life experiences, giving her the ability to perceive abnormal situations.
After a few days of deduction, Xue Xue had a rough idea.
She felt that the assistant director and Gu Xuan were setting a trap for Su Xiangnan.
But what was the purpose of doing so?
Su Xiangnan was just an ordinary, good-looking, and academically successful prospective college student. Was he worth all this trouble?
In the moment that this question flashed through her mind, Xue Xue found the answer.
Su Lin.
The only weakness that Su Xiangnan had, and even considered a stain by some, was given to him by Su Lin.
The woman gave him a beautiful life, but left an indelible scar on the beautiful life with her own hands.
In this way, it can be explained.
However, Xue Xue's family was just an ordinary middle-class family, with no connection to the industry. Her understanding of the assistant director and Gu Xuan was only based on the data she found online. She has no way of knowing why they set a trap for Su Xiangnan, or who instructed them to do so.
Even though Xue Xue already had a faint guess in her heart about this person, without substantial and valid evidence, it was just a guess.
She would rather think too much on her own.
Xue Xue had a strong premonition that the next period of time would be crucial in determining the success or failure of her mission.
However, all she could do now was wait and see.
But if it was really the person she thought did itdid the other person even predict Su Lin's onset of illness? Thinking of the first follow-up visit after the operation, the doctor said that Su Lin was in good condition after the operation, but her unstable psychological state due to inner conflicts required more companionship and communication from her family. However, the doctor said that this relapse was caused by a major stimulus.
Who gave the stimulus?
The more she thought about it, the more Xue Xue felt a chill down her spine.
"Xue Xue? Xue Xue? Xue, Xue"
The male voice that entered her ears deliberately emphasized the end of the words, like a small hook that hooked onto Xue Xue's heart, making her bones go weak, her whole body soft, and she almost dropped the phone in her hand.
"Why did you suddenly stop talking?" Su Xiangnan, unaware of his own seductiveness, asked her with an innocent and aggrieved tone, "Is it boring to chat with me? I've been so busy these days that I can only spare a little time for this"
"How could it be boring? I'm expecting you to call me every day." Xue Xue comforted him, "I just got a little distracted earlier. What were you saying? Gu Xuan wants to offer you a new contract?"
The boy across from her responded with a dull "Hmm."
Xue Xue didn't notice his slight moodiness, but she found it strange because according to Su Xiangnan's words, Gu Xuan really wanted to cultivate him.
It was only when Su Xiangnan replied that Xue Xue realized she had unintentionally spoken her thoughts out loud while contemplating.
"It's useless for him to want to cultivate me. I'm not interested, and I don't want to live a life where I'm recognized everywhere without any privacy," Su Xiangnan grumbled, fearing that no one would believe that the guy who effortlessly mastered various styles in magazines and was adept at meeting any demands could have such a childish side. "He should spend that time finding new talents instead of trying to convince me."
Xue Xue couldn't help but laugh when she heard what he said.
She didn't know if Su Xiangnan was really foolish or just pretending to be. There's a saying, "Little success relies on flattery, great success relies on fate." This statement does have some truth to it. The word "success" may sound simple, but there is room for manipulation. However, to achieve a phenomenon-level success, one needs the right timing, favorable conditions, and the right people.
"It's okay. What he thinks is his business. He has no right to make decisions for you about your life." "
"Hmm"
Su Xiangnan felt that the relationships between people were really strange.
Whenever he doubted whether he was doing the right thing and felt anxious because of being in an unfamiliar and tense work environment, just hearing Xue Xue's voice seemed to bring him comfort.
In the past, Su Xiangnan only felt that Xue Xue was a guiding light in his life, dispelling endless darkness and illuminating the path ahead while bringing warmth. However, now Su Xiangnan discovered that it was more than that.
Xue Xue was still his medicine.
The one and only antidote in the world, belonging only to Su Xiangnan.
Suddenly, a deep laughter penetrated Xue Xue's eardrums, causing her to pause.
Before she could ask Su Xiangnan what he was laughing about, the boy had already softened his voice and coquettishly said, "Xue Xue, I miss you so much, I wish I could see you right now."
