The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 274 - Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Married Life (6)

Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Married Life (6)
Wei Jingjing’s first reaction was that those two must have already become an item.

Was she here to collect information, or to assert her authority over Qin Baizhou?

She said, “Qin treats Siyu very well. Siyu has a short temper and doesn’t take advice from just anyone; only Qin can persuade her. Qin also puts in a lot of effort for her. All the messes Siyu gets herself into, Qin helps clean up behind the scenes. Siyu trusts Qin a great deal. After all, starting from her previous talent agency, it has been Qin leading her.”

Bo Yan dismissed it, “I know this, I just want to ask, what are his career plans for her?”

Wei Jingjing hadn’t expected Bo Yan to ask this question. After some thought, she said, “Our Qin once said that the most important things for a talent agent are three types of planning: time management, content planning, and emotional management. An agent helps schedule and coordinate the artist’s time, manages their film and business engagements, and controls their emotions. Ultimately, the goal is to achieve the maximum benefit in the shortest time.

For female artists, this is particularly true, since their peak period is very brief; they might lose their looks by the age of thirty. That’s the natural progression, not to mention the downtime if they choose to undergo cosmetic surgery. Also, female artists face the prospect of marriage and childbirth. Sometimes once they have a child, many acting opportunities disappear.

Siyu especially needs this kind of planning. She is carefree and straight-forward, never planning ahead, acting on personal preference, and her emotions can easily spiral out of control. She’s still young now, but in a few years, she might want to start dating, get married, and grow old. Of course, it’s best to earn more profit during her peak popularity.”

Bo Yan shook his head, “I’m not asking about this, I’m asking, what does Qin Baizhou think about her acting career?”

“Ah?” Wei Jingjing was a bit puzzled. Although Xia Siyu had consistently been embroiled in messy scandals, in her six years since debut, she had never been short of film offers. Moreover, she had been specifically requested to work with top directors because she was beautiful, and she took her acting seriously, doing a decent job.

“She’s always had good resources, hasn’t she? There are plenty of film offers, she’s got a pile of scripts at the company. Qin said that she’s a film actress, she doesn’t do TV series. Otherwise, if she got tied down to a TV series, film offers would drop like snowflakes.”

“Then regarding her film offers, how does he screen them for her? Your company surely does an initial filter, right?”

“Of course it’s about selecting the team, the salary, the treatment, isn’t that how it always is?”

Bo Yan furrowed his brows slightly.

He had no doubts about Qin Baizhou’s care and favoritism towards Xia Siyu, the scripts he picked for her were definitely both comfortable and well-paid, with good teams as well. But the problem is, acting in movies isn’t the same as working a government office job; how could someone choose films just based on high salaries and comfort, resulting in a selection of highly homogenous movies?

Xia Siyu was known for her ingénue roles in movies, and it was still such roles she played now. They commanded high box-office returns, were easygoing, usually filmed in cities, and were stylish. After acting in them, it was easy to secure endorsements and attention from fashion brands.

But Xia Siyu dreamt of making her mark on film history; she didn’t lack money nor did she fear hardship, and in the future, their disagreements would only grow larger.

For now, Xia Siyu still had some autonomy, and she also had aspirations. It seemed as though she had independence, but the scripts were specifically selected before even reaching her hands, which was detrimental to her development.

Qin Baizhou’s planned path suits an artist who wants to earn money lying down, but it doesn’t suit her.
