115: Chapter 115 seems to have gone too far! Jiang Yan is under a lot of pressure!

Chapter 115: Seems Like I Overdid It! Jiang Yan Under Great Pressure!

"What, are you nervous?"

"Yeah!" Jiang Yan nodded. "What if we lose money?"

She was confident in her figure and looks, but not in her ability to become popular.

Having been in this industry for nearly half a year, she knew very well that going viral had no direct relationship with beauty.

With makeup, beauty filters, and maximum settings, who isn't a beauty on the internet?

"Don't worry, even if we lose money, you won't be held responsible!" Yu Siying comforted her. "Just focus on doing your job well."

"I still feel a lot of pressure!"

"This is the boss valuing you and wanting to groom you. If you really do get famous, just remember to repay the company and the boss."

Su Yang said three million, but Yu Siying felt there was definitely some exaggeration.

She had a rough idea of Su Yang's intentions, but she couldn't call him out on it.

After all, it was beneficial for the company.

Next, Yu Siying took the apprehensive Jiang Yan to meet the new team.

These team members were elites she had handpicked; not only were there more of them than in Dai Jiaying's team, but their overall strength was also greater.

The news quickly spread throughout the company.

"Sister Jiaying, do you think that Big-chested Woman has hooked up with the boss?" Dai Jiaying's young assistant said with some dissatisfaction. "I heard the boss prepared millions in funding for her and is going all out with resources. This might affect you!"

Dai Jiaying frowned and warned, "Don't talk nonsense about the boss!"

The little assistant nodded. "I know, I won't say anything reckless!"

Thinking of Jiang Yan, Dai Jiaying did indeed feel uncomfortable.

Why her?

However, she didn't show any obvious emotions.

She suddenly asked, "What was Gong Zihao's reaction?"

"Him? He said since the boss values that Big-chested Woman so much, she must have great potential!" The assistant said helplessly. "He's a die-hard supporter of the boss. I bet if the boss said the Earth was flat, he'd believe it."

Dai Jiaying asked again, "What about Li Xiang and Duan Hongyu?"

The assistant whispered, "They didn't have much of a reaction; they're both just doing their own thing."

"Alright then!" Dai Jiaying chuckled softly. "Our boss is extraordinary. That Big-chested Woman must really have something special about her."

She suddenly realized that the entire Spark Media was firmly under the boss's control.

Not to mention the management; even Yu Siying, who had always had a strong personality, now listened seriously to the boss's opinions.

In an MCN Company, the influencers are usually the most unstable element.

Yet almost all of them were personally signed by the boss and were die-hards he decided to groom!

Judging by his eye for talent, the boss didn't seem to have ever been wrong.

Just then, Yu Siying came into Dai Jiaying's office with a smile. "Jiaying, I have some things to talk to you about!"

Yu Siying was naturally there to talk some sense into Dai Jiaying.

She couldn't guarantee whether Jiang Yan would become popular.

But she definitely had to stabilize the company's current top star first.

Jiang Yan felt a pressure that made it hard for her to breathe.

Over a dozen people in the company began revolving around her.

The salaries of these people would be somewhat linked to her performance.

She also learned about the company's branding for her: they wanted her to take the Coser route.

She knew what a Coser was and had watched anime.

But that was back when she was a student.

She knew Tsunade and One Piece.

She had seen a few episodes, or maybe a few dozen, but she certainly hadn't finished them.

A Coser... why did it still feel so unreliable?

That night, Jiang Yan lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Her mind was filled with those staff members and the teachers who were even stricter with her.

And those millions of yuan!

What if it was a loss?

She was very worried and terrified!

If it were when she first started livestreaming, she would have had a somewhat blind confidence.

Thinking that with her figure and looks, she would definitely become a massive hit!

However, after a period of tempering, her confidence had long since crumbled.

Especially after joining Xinghuo and seeing the speed at which Gong Zihao and the others gained followers!

Waking up early in the morning, she saw the dark circles under her eyes and the bloodshot veins.

She hadn't slept all night.

Her mind was in a daze, and she kept making mistakes during several simple shoots; after filming for hours, she still couldn't get a passing take!

Although she wasn't scolded, and the photographers and staff only comforted her.

Telling her to rest well and film again when she felt better.

But Jiang Yan could still sensitively sense that the people around her were looking at her with doubt.

While in the restroom, she heard someone say she was sleeping her way to the top!

She felt terrible!

If she really were sleeping her way to the top, she wouldn't feel this bad!

In the afternoon, as Su Yang was driving toward Chen Li's place, he received a call from an unknown number.

He pulled over to the side of the road, picked up the phone, and asked, "Who is this?"

"Boss, it's me!"

"Jiang Yan?"

"Yes."

"Is something the matter?"

"I feel like the pressure is a bit much!"

Su Yang said with a smile, "You'll get used to it!"

When a whole group of people is serving you and relying on you for their livelihood, it's only normal to feel pressure.

"Boss, can you come over for a bit?" Jiang Yan said softly. "I have some things I want to talk to you about."

Hearing the tone of her voice, Su Yang hesitated for a moment before replying, "Alright."

On the way, Su Yang asked Yu Siying about Jiang Yan's situation.

She told Su Yang that Jiang Yan didn't seem to have rested well last night and was completely out of it today!

Seeing Jiang Yan standing by the street, looking haggard and lost.

Su Yang felt that he might have overdone it and scared the girl!

He claimed he would assemble a team for Jiang Yan, throw millions at her, and that the company would go all out with maximum resources to support her rise... in reality, it was mostly to win her over!

He knew very well that Jiang Yan would likely go viral next month.

So he had to increase her loyalty to the company as quickly as possible!

Winning the heart of someone already successful versus winning the heart of someone unknown.

The cost is clearly different!

Once Jiang Yan actually became famous.

No matter how well the company treated her, she might take it for granted!

Su Yang wanted her to understand that her rise to fame wasn't due to herself, but because the company was pushing her!

He wanted Jiang Yan to understand the importance of the company and a professional team.

He wanted Jiang Yan to "know" just how much the company had sacrificed for her!

After all, many influencers, once successful, either became the company's divas.

Or they completely broke away from the company to start their own business.

Although the Business Deduction showed Jiang Yan wouldn't leave the company within a year, what about after that?

Su Yang could indeed improve Jiang Yan's treatment, but would she definitely be satisfied?

If the company backed down too much, it would instead put itself in a weak position.

Would she, because of sudden fame, gradually become perverse in character?

Feeling like she was second only to God, becoming more emotional.

Becoming difficult to control?

Even affecting the company's operations?

These were all things Su Yang had to consider!

He didn't think himself despicable.

After all, without him, Jiang Yan might really have wasted her whole life.

Seeing Su Yang's car, Jiang Yan knocked on the door.

Su Yang opened the door, and she sat directly in the passenger seat.

He asked casually, "Where do you want to go?"

"Can we go out of the city?" Jiang Yan said softly. "I want to clear my head!"

"Alright."

Su Yang, feeling a tiny bit of guilt, decided to fulfill Jiang Yan's wish.

After the car got on the highway, Jiang Yan had Su Yang exit at a random junction.

Half an hour later, the car finally arrived at a secluded riverside.

It was surrounded by dense bamboo forests, with a few households visible in the distance.

Jiang Yan hopped out of the car and looked back at Su Yang.

Su Yang also got out and accompanied her for a walk along the river.

After being used to the city's skyscrapers, looking at the countryside scenery felt refreshing.

Even Su Yang gradually relaxed, finding the walk quite pleasant!

After about ten minutes, Jiang Yan gazed at the distant fields and said softly, "Boss, thank you."

"You're welcome," Su Yang said with a smile. "When you're in a bad mood, you should come out for a walk more often."

"Yeah."

As it grew late, Jiang Yan followed Su Yang back to the car.

Before Su Yang could speak, Jiang Yan looked at him and asked:

"Boss, what if you throw those millions in and there's not even a splash?"

"Just do your best, don't put too much pressure on yourself!"

Looking at Su Yang's handsome face, Jiang Yan suddenly seemed to have made up her mind; she stood up from the passenger seat and stepped her left foot next to Su Yang's right foot.

Then, she grabbed Su Yang's shoulders and sat directly on his lap.

"You..."

Jiang Yan grabbed the hem of her shirt with both hands and pulled it off.

Su Yang felt something soft bounce against his face!

Looking at her slightly messy hair, her charming large eyes, and that resolute and decisive aura... Su Yang seemed to understand what she was trying to do.
