Chapter 185

This is Tianyao\'s first project, and everyone in the company has put in their utmost enthusiasm because Ms. Song always said that money is not an issue and asked them to find the best standards for every aspect, from the director to the actors, selecting top talents in terms of reputation and ability within the industry.

Although the employees of Tianyao felt a bit apprehensive when they saw the names of these industry giants, they couldn\'t help but worry.

After all, these are big shots that money alone may not be able to hire. Is Ms. Song really okay?

Song Shuling believed that she had absolutely no problem.

Because she didn\'t want to rely on the reputation of the Song Group, lest she would be held hostage by someone with ill intentions, she personally visited directors and screenwriters one by one to plan the project. Even if she was rejected, she didn\'t feel discouraged at all.

Both Tianyao Entertainment and "A Letter to You" were new, and this kind of project really tested the other party\'s judgment. Even if it\'s a fine steed, it still needs someone with a discerning eye to recognize its brilliance.

So when those people rejected her, Song Shuling wasn\'t disappointed at all. She was both selecting and eliminating.

If the other party joined the project because of the background of the Song Group, she would rather not have them.

However, the quality of "A Letter to You" speaks for itself, and not everyone in the industry only looks at seniority and fame. Several top-notch screenwriters quickly recognized the potential of this original work and showed great interest. Song Shuling is currently forming a screenwriting team. Once some scripts are ready, it will be easier to convince them to collaborate.

Amidst her busy schedule, Song Shuling received an unexpected call from an unexpected guest.

Looking at the caller ID displaying "Song Lecheng," Song Shuling confirmed it several times before cautiously answering the call, "Hello, Second Brother?"

It was like the sun rising from the west. This Second Brother of hers, who hadn\'t spoken to her in over a decade, and hadn\'t even looked at her properly, actually took the initiative to call her today. Moreover, ever since the incident at the family banquet last time, the relationship between her and her uncle\'s family had plummeted to freezing point, resembling enemies. How could Song Lecheng suddenly call her?

With some vigilance, Song Shuling listened to the overly enthusiastic voice on the other end of the line, "Xiaoling, what are you doing? Are you busy?"

Song Shuling became even more cautious, "I\'m at work. Is there something, Second Brother?"

Song Lecheng chuckled a couple of times, "I heard it from Grandma. You have started a entertainment company now and are preparing for a TV drama project, right?"

Song Shuling immediately said, "I don\'t have any female celebrities here! The investment is also sufficient!"

Song Lecheng raised his voice, "What are you saying? How can you think like that about your Second Brother?" He cleared his throat, "Well, the thing is, I used to run an entertainment company for several years, although I didn\'t achieve much, I know quite a few people in the industry. Your new company has just started, and I know money isn\'t an issue, what you lack are these connections. Tonight, let me treat you and introduce you to some people, how about that?"

If someone else said this, Song Shuling would have believed it. But now that it came from the mouth of Song Lecheng, she felt like he was playing some kind of trick again.

Without thinking, Song Shuling immediately refused, "Thank you for your kind offer, Second Brother, but I don\'t need it. I don\'t lack anything now."

As long as you don\'t come and cause trouble, everything will be fine!

Song Lecheng became anxious, "Hey! I really mean well! Don\'t rush to reject it. Just come and have a meal with me, and you\'ll see! We\'re family, do you think I would do anything to harm you? Even if Second Brother is no good, he wouldn\'t stoop so low!"

That\'s true. Otherwise, Grandpa would give him a hard time.

It wouldn\'t hurt to see what he\'s up to.

After considering for a moment, Song Shuling agreed, "Alright then, but I\'ll talk to Grandpa first."

Song Lecheng was infuriated by her cautious behavior, "Fine, fine! You can tell your brother if you want! I\'ll send you the time and location later!"

After hanging up the phone, Song Shuling immediately called Song Grandpa, "Grandpa, Second Brother asked me to have dinner tonight. He said he wants to introduce me to some connections in the entertainment industry."

Soon enough, Song Lecheng received a call from Grandpa, scolding him. He was told to take good care of his sister and that not even a single hair should be harmed.

Song Lecheng was itching with anger.

This little girl actually called Grandpa! In her eyes, he really was a beast!

He was so mad that he wanted to give up, but when he thought of the even more difficult-to-deal-with Song JinXing, compared to him, Song Shuling was still relatively easy to get along with. He had to bear with it.

He thought he would receive a call from Song JinXing next, but Song Shuling had only told Grandpa and hadn\'t informed her brother.

She had grown up and couldn\'t rely on her brother for everything. She had to learn to solve problems on her own!

Song Shuling was now a young executive, with a complete set of arrangements including a driver, bodyguard, and secretary. When she arrived at the designated place, Song Lecheng, who was waiting outside, looked at his well-dressed cousin and felt a pang of bitterness, "Xiaoling, it\'s been so long, and you\'ve changed so much."

Song Shuling smiled at him, "People are always growing and making progress. We can\'t stay in one place or even regress."

Song Lecheng: "?"

I suspect you\'re mocking me!!!

Song Shuling whispered, "Brother, don\'t mention our relationship when we go in later."

Song Lecheng was puzzled, "Why? With that... with your brother as your backer, they won\'t dare to look down on you."

Song Shuling said, "I don\'t want to rely on my brother. I can run the company on my own."

Song Lecheng: "???"

She\'s definitely mocking him!!!

You see, when he started that company, he didn\'t hesitate to use Song JinXing\'s name to get things done! But now, after his own sister started her own company, she\'s avoiding association with him.

He finally realized that neither of the siblings from the third branch were easy to mess with! Song JinXing was like the God of the Underworld, and now even this once soft and gentle sister had a hint of a powerful businesswoman\'s aura.

Walking into the private room with her head held high in high heels, she made him look like a little follower!

Song Lecheng couldn\'t help but straighten his back, his face stern as he introduced the people in the private room. "This is my cousin, Song Shuling."

The outside world was familiar with several male members of the Song family, but this young girl\'s name was heard for the first time. However, being direct descendants of the Song family, whether male or female, carried equal weight!

Several big shots from the entertainment industry quickly stood up and greeted Song Shuling one after another.

Song Shuling was prepared in advance. Although she felt a bit nervous deep down, she followed her brother\'s example and didn\'t show any stage fright. She handed out the business cards she had prepared in advance to each of them, saying, "Tianyao Entertainment has just been established and is currently preparing a TV drama project. I hope to have the opportunity to collaborate with all of you."

Everyone responded enthusiastically.

Song Shuling had done her homework beforehand, and she had also heard of the names of these people in the room. They were indeed the connections she needed right now. It seemed that Song Lecheng was genuinely introducing her and not harboring any ill intentions.

However, Song Shuling couldn\'t help but recall his past actions and couldn\'t fully trust him. After the meal, having established good relationships with the big shots, one of them even guaranteed to introduce her to the director she wanted to collaborate with tomorrow.

With a lady present, the meal was conducted cleanly without any forced drinking. Song Lecheng also played the role of a companion without causing any trouble.

It was only when the dinner was over and Song Shuling politely escorted these potential partners to the door, waiting for them all to leave, that she finally looked at Song Lecheng with half caution and half puzzlement. "Second brother, can you tell me now? What exactly do you want to do?"

Song Lecheng immediately appeared somewhat uneasy, still being stubborn. "What do you mean? We\'re family, I just want to help you, is that not allowed?"

Song Shuling replied, "If you don\'t say it now, you won\'t have another chance in the future."

Song Lecheng was immediately caught, knowing that with his mindset, he couldn\'t play any tricks. "Alright, alright! Can\'t I tell you? The truth is, I feel guilty about how I\'ve acted in the past, and it caused a strain between me and your brother."

He glanced at Song Shuling nervously, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth as he continued, "We\'re family, and I don\'t want to be at odds with your brother anymore! Look at my behavior tonight, I genuinely want to reconcile with you all. Can\'t we just be a loving family from now on?"

Song Shuling replied with a puzzled expression, "?"

So after all the fuss, he came to surrender?

But who said we have to be a loving family?

Song Shuling looked at him with disdain and unconsciously took a step back.
