Chapter 37 -037: Snatching the Top Actress’s Endorsement?
On the way to the company.
Liu Su glanced at Shen Yan’s attire, a white shirt, long black pants, and a pair of pristine white sneakers—fresh and youthful!
The standard student look.
Bare-faced.
With Shen Yan’s face, there was no need for deliberate embellishment; every feature was just right.
Knowing that Liu Su was sizing her up, Shen Yan still rested her chin on her palm, looking at the scenery outside the window.
She breathed in a sense of freedom and ease.
Liu Su had already prepared a makeup team, but now, seeing Shen Yan’s transformation, he decided to dismiss the team and just hire a personal makeup artist instead.
The style of her clothes needed to be adjusted as well.
It wasn’t that Shen Yan’s comfortable clothing was bad, but some changes were necessary to highlight features more prominently.
Star Language Media.
As soon as Shen Yan got out of the car, she saw Xiao Zhao waiting at the door and hurriedly ran over, “Uncle Liu, Yanyan!”
Liu Su saw Xiao Zhao and thought about the matter of changing assistants.
When he replaced Zhang Lu as the agent, he had already begun looking for a more capable assistant.
“I’ve had lunch.”
Shen Yan casually showed her concern.
Xiao Zhao was a bit excited, “Yes! I heard you were coming, so I’ve been waiting here for a while.”
Shen Yan nodded, “Uncle Liu, you go do your thing; Xiao Zhao is here with me now.”
Seeing that Shen Yan seemed quite fond of Xiao Zhao, Liu Su thought to put off the assistant change and observe a little longer.

As soon as Liu Su left, Xiao Zhao surreptitiously leaned in, “Yanyan, the company actually gave you the upcoming advert that should’ve gone to our A-list celebrity!”
Shen Yan looked at her, “You’re well-informed.”
Xiao Zhao smiled sheepishly, “I have a friend at the company, and he let me in on the news.”
Shen Yan thought it must be the skincare advertisement Liu Su mentioned.
Isn’t it just a mid-range brand?
Just learning the rules of the entertainment industry, Shen Yan was aware that stealing resources from the company’s A-lister was a major source of criticism.

Perhaps the A-lister had already cursed her entire lineage.
“Is this A-list celebrity Shi Lian?”
Shen Yan asked.
Xiao Zhao nodded, cautioning, “When we go in later, Yanyan, you’d better steer clear.”
Shi Lian’s agent is rather formidable, and she was worried they’d give Shen Yan a hard time.
“I understand,” Shen Yan said, resource grabbing was a common occurrence in the entertainment industry, and she believed Liu Su could handle it.
Xingyu Media Company’s location was neither remote nor too bustling, perfectly situated between the busy and the serene parts of Shen City.
The building wasn’t very tall, just eight stories.
But it covered a large area.
As soon as Shen Yan entered, she saw a large, fashionable poster featuring a woman dressed in a very professional suit. Her makeup was perfected, highlighting a sense of beauty with an aggressive charm.
This woman’s face and temperament had very strong plasticity.
This was the A-lister Xiao Zhao mentioned, Shi Lian!
Apart from Shi Lian’s poster, there were also many others of different artists hanging inside the company.
The elevator doors opened and a few people came out, led by the woman from the poster.
Shi Lian’s attire today was quite casual, and her makeup was light; she didn’t have the same aggressive look as on the poster.
However, her gaze retained the same sharpness as depicted.
Because she was filming an urban drama about life, where she played a strong woman, she had cut her long hair to a medium length.
Her entire demeanor exuded a more dashing air.
Standing by her side was Dai Qiu, the top agent Star Language Media had poached at the beginning. He was a bit nearsighted, his gaze peeking at Shen Yan through a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, then continued to turn toward Shi Lian, entrusting her with some task.
“Mr. Shi! Brother Qiu!” Xiao Zhao’s back was bent at a perfect right angle, displaying utmost respect for the two men.
Shen Yan’s face remained impassive, “Mr. Shi, Brother Qiu.”
Upon seeing Shen Yan, Shi Lian’s face passed a flicker of surprise, then she raised a not-so-friendly smile, “Ah, it’s Shen Yan. Barely recognized you without makeup.”
“You go on ahead. I will handle things here at the company,” said Dai Qiu, with a mere nod at Shen Yan before urging Shi Lian to hurry over.
Shi Lian dared not delay and took her people out the door.
Dai Qiu adjusted his glasses, his eyes sharply scrutinizing Shen Yan as though to dissect her inside and out.
Xiao Zhao stood to the side, trembling uncontrollably.
She really feared Dai Qiu.
Not even in his thirties, his presence as an agent was more domineering than a president’s.
At Star Language Media, hardly anyone dared to directly confront Dai Qiu.
“Shen Yan, I hope your good luck continues.”
With those words, Dai Qiu turned and walked back into the elevator.
Expecting that Shen Yan would not dare to follow, to his surprise, she entered the elevator as if unfazed by the coldness in his eyes.
Xiao Zhao tucked herself beside Shen Yan, shrinking like a quail, minimizing her presence.
The silence in the elevator was eerily oppressive.
Xiao Zhao shook even more violently.
With Shen Yan snatching Shi Lian’s endorsement deal, Dai Qiu was certainly angry.
Although the two remained silent, Xiao Zhao felt as if she could see electricity crackling through the air!
“Since you’re here, why don’t we pay President Kang a visit on the eighth floor?”
Shen Yan nodded and followed up to the eighth floor.
Upon exiting, she immediately felt gazes from all directions which quickly retreated after meeting Dai Qiu’s eyes.
Dai Qiu had argued with Kang Xiangwen several times in the past few days, and people casually noticed the shattered ashtray in President Kang’s office.
The atmosphere within the company grew somewhat chilly, with everyone acting even more cautious around Dai Qiu.
It was not easy securing a mid-tier skincare brand endorsement only to have it snatched away by an insignificant eighteenth-tier star—anyone would flip out over that.
Yet at this moment, the reputedly more attractive Shen Yan had dared to share an elevator with Dai Qiu—a noteworthy testament to her mental fortitude!
The fact that Liu Su was the behind-the-scenes owner of Star Language Media wasn’t public knowledge, and President Kang was still ostensibly in command.
President Kang, too, was in a predicament. Liu Su had suddenly popped up, seized Xingyu Media Company, and started promoting a female artist who still hadn’t made it after a year.
This made President Kang wonder if Shen Yan had secured a wealthy, influential sugar daddy who was completely smitten with her and willing to take over Xingyu just to boost her alone.
“President Kang.”
Dai Qiu knocked briefly before opening the door, and the response from within was half a beat slow.
Upon seeing Liu Su still seated inside, Dai Qiu’s expression darkened.
Liu Su stood up, “President Kang, I’ll go make arrangements.”
“Uncle Liu, with so many endorsements, your artists don’t need to take this one specifically. What if we both step back? I can negotiate a different endorsement deal for you as compensation,” Dai Qiu stood in front of the door, blocking Liu Su’s departure.
Liu Su glanced behind Dai Qiu and saw Shen Yan.
“This ad is better suited for Shen Yan,” Liu Su said.
Dai Qiu’s expression grew stern, indicating his refusal to budge, “President Kang, you should be very clear who negotiated this endorsement deal. An eighteen-tier nobody seizing the endorsements from a top-tier star doesn’t sound very good. It’s not favorable for Shen Yan either.”
Liu Su looked at him with an unconvinced face and turned to Kang Xiangwen, “You should tell him why the ad sponsor relented.”
Kang Xiangwen was already at his wit’s end, meeting Dai Qiu’s icy gaze head-on, “The brand side was originally swayed because of Uncle Liu… The Asia endorsement was meant for another company’s top-tier actress.”
Dai Qiu furrowed his brows, suspecting that the two had already synchronized their stories.
