Chapter 448

But,

if Mei Yi Liya fails to complete her task and create the corresponding value,

then,

the agency will immediately reduce Mei Yi Liya's compensation,

and turn the unfulfilled amount into a debt owed by Mei Yi Liya, forcing her to repay it ASAP!

If Mei Yi Liya's situation continues to deteriorate in the future,

the agency is very likely to package her and sell her to another industry, or even force her into filming adult content…

Therefore,

if Mei Yi Liya fails to fulfill the wager agreement within the deadline,

her fate will be dire.

Fortunately,

Sister Wave 4,

Mei Yi Liya, leveraging the popularity of Lele Jingtu and her outstanding performance,

staged a remarkable comeback,

successfully renewed her contract with Sister Wave,

and ultimately formed a group.

Just from Sister Wave, Mei Yi Liya generated over ten million yuan in pure profit for the agency,

leaving the CEO beaming with joy.

However,

after Sister Wave ended,

Mei Yi Liya suffered a cliff-like collapse,

although the Sister Wave production team had promised post-group activities like public performances,

none of these have been fulfilled to this day.

So,

Mei Yi Liya and her agent

could only try to enter the Daxia entertainment industry and find jobs for themselves.

Recently,

a cosmetics brand contacted Mei Ya's agent, hoping Mei Ya would become the brand's Asia-Pacific ambassador,

and then,

Mei Yi Liya and her agent hurriedly came to Didu,

rented an apartment, and prepared for negotiations.

At first,

the negotiations went well,

the compensation offered by the cosmetics brand satisfied both Mei Ya and her agent,

but just as both sides were about to sign the contract and begin work,

the cosmetics brand—

the so-called "gold daddy" mentioned by the agent—

began repeatedly inviting Mei Yi Liya to private gatherings, explicitly stating she would need to drink with guests.

Mei Yi Liya is not naive,

having debuted in Nihon for so many years,

she knows what "drinking with guests" means,

and knows what happens after drinking deep into the night,

yet,

back in Nihon,

Mei Yi Liya had always maintained her integrity, never participating in high-level gatherings or interactions,

she had assumed that in Daxia, the business environment would be better than in Nihon,

but she never expected that Daxia also operated under the same system.

Drinking with guests,

Group: 255595300

Mei Yi Liya did not want to go,

but,

she had not worked for nearly half a month,

rent in Didu was expensive, and the cost of living was high,

if she still couldn't land a job,

she and her agent sister,

might truly starve to death in Didu…

With a helpless sigh,

Mei Yi Liya looked at her agent: "Sister, is there no other way?"

"If all else fails, we can find other jobs—like cutting ribbons at stores or opening ceremonies. Anything that pays."

Mei Ya!

The agent glared at Seeing Meiya with annoyance: "You need to understand—you're an artist now."

"Yeah."

Seeing Meiya blinked, confused: "Aren't these all part of an artist's work? We did these jobs back in Nihon too."

0 ·········Request flowers····· ·········

"It's different."

The agent shook his head: "We're in Daya now. To some of our fans here, that kind of work isn't called work—it's humiliating yourself. You can only take commercial performances, ads, and endorsements."

"Why not?"

Seeing Meiya looked utterly baffled: "I'm just using my own labor to support myself—is that wrong?"

"It's not allowed."

The agent kept shaking his head: "Meiya, you have some popularity and a fanbase in Daya, so you must maintain your status. Don't lower your own standing, and absolutely don't take to the streets to do things like this."

"Because once you do, your fans will think you're degrading yourself, belittling your worth, unworthy of their affection and support. Your fanbase will plummet fast—no one will want to pay for you anymore."

.. 0.......

"??? What kind of logic is this????"

Seeing Meiya helplessly spread her hands: "Don't these fans have anything better to do? Are they watching me every single day? The Daya entertainment industry is too surreal!"

"Yeah, I think so too."

The agent sighed and shook his head: "They have this insanely popular group, TFLboy. A few days ago, they held their tenth-anniversary concert, and thousands of fans marched down the streets holding banners with their faces—blocking entire roads!"

"And many of their female fans spent thousands, even tens of thousands, buying wedding dresses, saying they wanted to marry them at the concert—marry their youth—and they actually did..."

"..."

Seeing Meiya fell silent.

After a moment, she nodded helplessly: "Alright, Daya's fans are insane."

"But sister, how does this have anything to do with whether I go to work or not?"

"Meiya, haven't you understood yet?!"

The agent looked at Seeing Meiya with exasperation,

and said seriously: "If you go to accompany clients for drinks, we can land endorsements—and other jobs will follow, because your fans are still with you."

"But if you go do street work for store anniversaries, you'll be abandoned by your fans—and you'll never land another decent job again!"

"So, Meiya, think carefully—do you want to go accompany clients for drinks?"

"I..."

As if frightened by the agent's description,

Seeing Meiya bit her lip and thought hard,

then nodded helplessly: "Alright, sister—I'll go accompany clients for drinks!"
