Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 611 - 420: The Mysterious President Li (Part 2)

"Don't persuade me." Yang Xiaoxiu has already started editing a message, "I'll contact him right now. Everything will revolve around Brother Jing's arrangements."

Seeing her firmness, the agent could only sigh helplessly and nodded, "Fine, I'll coordinate to cancel the interview. But it's really a pity, the editor-in-chief came personally..."

The words were cut off as Yang Xiaoxiu was focused on editing her message.

She looked at this artist who was always well-prepared in front of the camera, yet now seemed anxious like a girl in love, her curiosity growing stronger.

With a sidelong glance, she saw the assistant in the back making faces, seemingly eager to share gossip, but she held back her curiosity and quietly began handling follow-up work.

Soon after, Yang Xiaoxiu finished sending the message and clutched her phone tightly, throwing her previous intention of taking a short rest in the car out of the window.

She leaned forward slightly, her eyes fixed on the phone screen, unable to resist checking every few seconds to see if there was a new message.

Even the cold light from the screen turning on could make her sit up straight, holding her breath unconsciously.

This absent-minded appearance made the agent even more puzzled and curious, her gaze flitting over Yang Xiaoxiu several times from behind her glasses.

But considering that Yang Xiaoxiu didn't plan to say more about this matter, she could only swallow her unanswered questions silently.

After a while, Yang Xiaoxiu's phone suddenly vibrated slightly.

She looked shocked, almost reflexively grabbing her phone, her unlocking motion was so quick she nearly flung the phone away.

As soon as she saw the message on the screen, a joyful smile instantly bloomed on her face, her voice inadvertently rising, "Brother Jing replied to me. You guys take me to the city center now."

Just after saying that, she shook her head sharply, "No, no, I need to go home and change clothes. Take me home first, then to the city center after I change!"

The fact that she specifically changed clothes to see Li Jing made the agent feel even more surprised.

She had seen Yang Xiaoxiu's polite smile facing investors, had seen her poised at awards ceremonies, but such hectic and excited behavior was truly unprecedented.

It was normal for Yang Xiaoxiu to respect Li Jing, she thought.

But to act so passionately, even a bit ecstatic, this was beyond the agent's understanding.

Half an hour later, when the nanny car stopped downstairs at Yang Xiaoxiu's place, the agent and assistant quietly waited in the car, watching her hurriedly go upstairs to change.

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, the agent broke the silence and turned to the assistant, "Do you know anything? What is the relationship between President Li and Xiaoxiu?

Why does it seem like Xiaoxiu cares so much about him? I've never seen her care so much about anyone, especially a man."

The assistant's face was full of gossip, she first looked around cautiously, making sure Yang Xiaoxiu hadn't come down, then leaned closer and whispered:

"Sis, aren't you aware that Xiaoxiu didn't have any background or resources before?"

The agent nodded, looking as though she knew Yang Xiaoxiu's past like the back of her hand:

"Later she caught the eye of Director Wen Lan and participated in the movie 'Mortal', getting the opportunity for the second female lead.

And then she skyrocketed to fame thanks to her superb acting skills, after which she received invitations from various variety shows.

It's undeniable, Xiaoxiu is not only a natural actress but also a born star; her effect on variety shows even surpassed everyone's expectations."

"Sis, perhaps you're only aware of these surface-level news."

The assistant continued mysteriously, "But for Xiaoxiu to go from a student without any background to getting the second female lead, and obtaining resources that ordinary students could never get, it couldn't have been that simple, right?

The original second female lead of 'Mortal' wasn't her, she was forcefully replaced! This matter caused quite a stir at the time, with all kinds of news flying everywhere."

As she said this, a meaningful look flashed in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, the agent immediately caught on to the implication in the words, surprised, "So are you saying... this was all thanks to our President Li working behind the scenes?"

Upon hearing this, the assistant nodded forcefully, her eyes full of gossip meaning:

"That's right, it was President Li! Sis, think about it, in drama academy and film school, there are students like Xiaoxiu by the dozens, but who among them, from a silent college student, could leap to the current status like her?

President Li has made more than just a little effort behind the scenes!

It's said when Director Wen Nan was preparing 'Mortal', the funding chain broke, it was President Li who stepped in to invest and rescue the situation, so Director Wen could finish shooting that blockbuster movie because of his assistance.

Our studio is just a minor branch of President Li's various businesses."

Upon hearing this, the agent's expression changed slightly, "So are you saying President Li's resources exceed our imagination?

No wonder he appears and disappears mysteriously, our studio's business is just a drop in the ocean to him..."

She leaned forward slightly, her tone filled with amazement, "I've been wondering how Xiaoxiu has been able to obtain the desirable resources in the industry and avoid so many of its hidden rules, turns out she has such a powerful patron."

As she said this, she suddenly leaned toward the assistant, lowering her voice, "What other insider information do you know? Tell me in detail, I'm really curious about this mysterious boss."

The assistant licked her lips, glanced cautiously outside the car window, confirmed there was no one, then lowered her voice and continued:

"I also heard from the crew staff, back when the 'Mortal' casting switch happened, it made quite a big scene.

The originally cast second female lead was a young actress being promoted by a brokerage firm, upon learning she was replaced, she and her boyfriend caused a ruckus on set, even pressuring Director Wen Lan.

Director Wen was under a lot of stress, unable to smooth things over. But guess what..."

She paused deliberately, a hint of reverence in her eyes, "At dawn the next day, that actress actually stayed with her boyfriend at the location for two whole hours, just to apologize to President Li in person."

"Such a thing happened?!"

The agent's eyes widened, her eyelashes trembling, her back instantly straightening, "Even Director Wen couldn't handle it, but President Li resolved it without even appearing? Such influence..."

She took a breath, her gaze suddenly catching sight of Yang Xiaoxiu stepping out of the stairwell in stilettos.

She saw that Xiaoxiu had shed her previous casual outfit, now dressed in a tailored smoky pink dress, the pearl necklace at her neck highlighting her fair and delicate skin.

The agent immediately elbowed the assistant, signaling silence.

Watching the meticulously dressed Yang Xiaoxiu, she pondered inwardly:

Having such a powerful support guiding her surely explains why Xiaoxiu has been able to navigate the turbulent entertainment industry so smoothly.

Looks like I need to reassess the weight of this mysterious boss's influence.

...

Then, Yang Xiaoxiu rode the black nanny car provided by the crew, speeding towards Li Jing's residence.

The leather seats inside were soft and comfortable, the assistant sat beside her holding documents at the ready, the agent on the passenger seat was still handling phone calls, communicating work, while the driver focused intently on the road ahead.

Despite the busy atmosphere in the car, Yang Xiaoxiu's mood was especially buoyant, thinking about soon meeting the benefactor who changed her fate, her fingers unconsciously tapping lightly on her knee, her eyes full of undisguised anticipation.

The car gradually entered a high-end neighborhood and stopped steadily. Yang Xiaoxiu quickly touched up her lipstick in the car's vanity mirror, making sure her makeup was impeccable, then elegantly stepped down in her ten-centimeter heels.

She waved cheerfully at the assistant and agent who followed behind, her voice light, "You guys can head back first, thank you for your hard work today. I can handle the rest myself, no need to come pick me up."

After speaking, she took a deep breath and walked lightly toward the apartment building, her dress swaying gently with her steps, the mild fragrance of her perfume wafting along.

In the car, the agent and assistant exchanged a glance but said nothing more, signaling the driver to start the car, wisely leaving the high-end community.
