338 A Transaction Doomed for Losses

Linda was a little speechless. She didnt know how to respond to such a demand. If we really get that third female role, are you seriously going to take it up? Dont you forget, youve already signed the female lead role for Imperial Palace. Youre going to have to pay a huge compensation fee if you go back on it, and youll end up offending a lot of people.

Anxin, you need to think this through clearly. Dont do anything rash.

Giving up a female lead role for a third female role, this is a transaction doomed for losses.

Qiao Anxin bit her lip, appearing very determined. I dont care about making a loss, as long as I can stop Qiao Mianmian. Its not that difficult to get a female lead role. With my current level of popularity and Brother Ah Zes investment, I wont ever be short of such opportunities in the future.

On the other hand, if I dont stop her now and end up giving her a chance to show herself, she might just make it big! What would I do, then?

Linda evidently didnt approve of such thinking.

Imperial Palace was an opportunity shed taken a long time to get hold of.

Moreover, Qiao Anxin only got more popular because her name was being associated with this show now.

If she did well in the show, she might even have a chance at the awards.

Once she became the Queen of Films, her net worth would be very different.

Although it was true that shed be able to find other opportunities in the future, some opportunities required a stroke of luck and were hard to come by.

Whats more, if she went back on her word this time, she might lose the trust of other collaborators in the future.

Anxin, I dont approve of you breaking the contract. Did you consider the fact that theyd definitely give your role in Imperial Palace to Huang Yilin if you give it up? Shes already a notch above you. If she makes it even bigger with her role in Imperial Palace, itll be almost impossible for you to outdo her in the future.

If Huang Yilin gets any more popular, you wont be in the same league as her anymore. Now, youre barely comparable to her. But in the future, this may not be the case.

Huang Yilin was an artiste of Star Splendors rival company, and they were putting in a lot to groom her.

Meanwhile, Qiao Anxin was Star Splendors precious artiste.

They were rival companies who fought over everything.

Huang Yilin had taken Qiao Anxins endorsement before, and vice versa. Since they were both top-tier actresses, the opportunities they got were roughly the same, and it wasnt uncommon for them to steal each others opportunities.

But if Huang Yilin got even more popular, Qiao Anxin would be trailing behind her.

She wouldnt be able to get hold of Huang Yilins opportunities in the future.

But Qiao Anxin didnt seem bothered by it at all. She insisted. I dont care. I want Qiao Mianmians role and thats that.

You Linda became pale from anger.

This was the first time she saw an artiste placing so little importance on her future.

But upon thinking about how Qiao Anxin was going to be married into the Su family and would still be Young Madam Su without having to work in the future

It made sense that she didnt need to have too many considerations about her future.

She did have what it took to be willful.

But this was precisely the type of artistes that Linda detested.

They werent sincere about working hard for their career simply because they knew they had a back-up plan if the current one failed.

Such artistes wouldnt go far.

Seeing how willful Qiao Anxin was, Linda was starting to consider her own future instead, for the first time ever. She was wavering.

She was someone with enough resources and experiences.

And shed groomed several artistes under her. However, shed never been able to groom a King or Queen of Films thus far.

Qiao Anxins looks were decent, and her acting was also alright.

But even with all the resources pumped into her, she wouldnt be able to emerge as an influential Queen of Films.
