Chapter 1026 Xia Xue also has the same idea

Chapter 1026: Chapter 1026: Xia Xue also has the same idea Chapter 1026: Chapter 1026: Xia Xue also has the same idea Xia Xue managed a forced smile, more pained than crying, “Yeah, I’m fine. Sister Nan, you don’t need to worry about me. You’ve already done your best to help me. Maybe I’m just not destined to be famous.”

Her agent’s hand lingered on her shoulder, hesitant to pull away. After a moment, she said, “You should be more open-minded. Making it in showbiz takes mental strength. Look at Rong Yan—how many struggles she’s weathered since her debut. Despite losing face this time, the media will definitely cover you, and even ridicule can generate buzz. People in the industry don’t care about the nature of that buzz; as long as you’re talked about, you’ll get resources coming your way. Just wait for the offers to roll in.”

“As for whether you’re fated for fame, you’ve only just started in the industry. There’s no need to feel knocked down by a minor setback,” her agent looked at her with more sincerity, “Don’t worry, I’ll mentor you well and try my best to bring you into the spotlight.”

Agents earn their keep through a commission on their artists’ earnings, and even the slightly competent ones tend to dislike taking on newcomers, who may be naive and troublesome, fearing too much effort might not yield equivalent returns.

Xia Xue’s agent was among the most promising second-tier agents at KT Entertainment, known for her quick thinking, young age, and deep understanding of the industry’s various rules.

Taking Xia Xue under her wing—much like Kevin did with Fu Ya—was initially following the upper management’s wishes.

However, after a few months of working together, she could see that Xia Xue was much smarter than Fu Ya, lacked any princess temperaments, understood well what it meant to ‘give’ for her career, and importantly, she had ambition!

With plenty of resources in hand, she had long wanted to cultivate someone from her own circle. Seeing Xia Xue holding back her temper after such an embarrassing incident, whether genuine or feigned, showed she had the makings of someone worth mentoring.

Of course, her agent preferred to believe that Xia Xue was truly understanding and sensible.

Otherwise, if a girl in her early twenties was already so calculating and able to bide her time, that would be horrifying.

Xia Xue had long known that her agent held many valuable connections and resources, awaiting an opportunity to coax them all to her benefit. Hearing her agent’s implied promise now, any dissatisfaction she had felt earlier dissipated like smoke.

“By the way, Sister Nan, have you heard that Director Dina came to Zeka looking for a theme song for her award-winning movie?”

“You mean ‘Around the City’?”

Xia Xue awkwardly admitted, “I heard it mentioned once by a friend of Mr. Han.”

Her agent was still unaware that she had been brushed off with money by Han Cheng, still thinking she was favored by him, “I’ve heard about it too, but never got the exact flight details, so I didn’t tell you before. It turns out Director Dina really did come to Zeka and even attended the AQ finals as a guest. It seems the rumors in the circle weren’t false.”

“Sigh, such a great opportunity right in front of us, and we weren’t prepared. I wonder if Rong Yan got the news in advance. She has more backing than us. For all we know, they could’ve been preparing in secret.”

With a trace of determination on her lips, Xia Xue cheerfully said, “I never imagined Director Dina would deign to come to a domestic singing contest. Though we weren’t prepared beforehand, this could still be an opportunity for us, couldn’t it?”

“It is an opportunity, but…”
