CHAPTER 437: CHAPTER 249 RECRUITMENT_2

Zeng Wei underestimated the situation; he knew that Shu Wan and Fu Siyu might be related, but he never imagined, or dared to believe, that Fu Siyu would oppose the Zeng Family for Shu Wan’s sake.

He missed the best opportunity to handle the issue, resulting in the video spreading across the entire internet, and now it was impossible to cover it up.

The Zeng Family had bullied the entertainment circle for too long, causing a trend within the circle to curry favor with the Zeng Family over a long period.

Only those related to the Zeng Family could gain resources in the film and television industry.

Originally, Wang Tian was marginalized by people in his company because he had a dispute with an agent who relied on the Zeng Family.

Now seeing everyone turn against Zeng Wei, Wang Tian honestly felt quite refreshed, yet he couldn’t help but worry about Shu Wan.

After all, that was the Zeng Family, a clan with deep roots, which wouldn’t fall because of these issues.

He feared Zeng Wei might recover and seek vengeance on Shu Wan.

"I’m not doubting Mr. Fu," Wang Tian reminded Shu Wan, "It’s just, the Zeng Family really has deep connections. If Zeng Wei gets out, he’ll definitely trouble you."

"He won’t get out." Shu Wan was quite calm.

"Really?"

Wang Tian was skeptical, but he had to believe since everything Shu Wan said always came true.

"Didn’t you mention shooting for a magazine last time? I’m free these days, so let’s shoot it directly before I join the crew next week."

After talking to Director Wei Jia last time, Director Wei Jia became quite enthusiastic.

Supported by Guangyu Group’s strong financial resources, various teams were quickly assembled, just waiting to start filming.

"Okay, I’ll pick you up this afternoon."

After coordinating recent work with Wang Tian, Shu Wan then made a trip back to school.

Although current technology allowed checking grades from home,

perhaps due to habits from a previous life, Shu Wan liked the feeling of going to collect the grades herself.

Unsurprisingly, she scored full marks in all her final exams.

Although Shu Wan didn’t attend classes often, her professors still adored her because of her excellent grades.

Of course, this was also partly due to Shu Wan’s people skills.

Every time she came, she would bring gifts for everyone; not anything too expensive—sometimes fruits from her own farm, sometimes carved folding fans, and other times rejuvenating eye patches.

Who doesn’t like feeling valued and cared for, especially when the gifts are also practical?

Within a semester, whether they had taught Shu Wan or not, everyone spoke highly of her.

Knowing that Shu Wan was working on her beauty product brand, the professors also showed concern.

They did not mock her like netizens did, but skepticism was definitely present.

"Although your grades are excellent, beauty products are tough."

"I have developed a new facial mask. Please try it."

Saying this, Shu Wan handed a set of facial masks to the professor.

Normally if someone else gave such gifts to a professor, they would accept it with a smile and then put it aside, never to use it.

But Shu Wan usually brought things like eye patches or rheumatism patches for the professors, which were much more effective than those available on the market.

So now, even though reason told the professor that the mask might not be useful, his heart was inclined to give it a try.

The professor read the ingredients of the mask, looking somewhat surprised and nodded, "No additives? Then your production cost must be high."

Almost all facial masks in the market contain various additives, mainly for a couple reasons.

One is to mask the strong industrial smells of the base materials or even to create a more pleasant fragrance to attract consumers.

The second is preservation since facial masks, being high in moisture content, are easily prone to decay, spoilage, and bacteria growth, which can lead to problems during production and storage; preservatives are needed to reduce costs.

One could imagine how expensive it would be to produce the kind of masks Shu Wan made.

Also, because it was free from various additives, the professor felt a bit more reassured and nodded at Shu Wan, "You’ve been thoughtful. I’ll give it a try."

"Okay, then, Professor, you’re busy, I’ll leave first."

"Alright."

In the dry north, especially with indoor heating, everyone’s face was dry.

Not long after Shu Wan left, the professor opened and applied a mask.

The moment he opened it, his eyes actually lit up.

Nowadays, to attract consumers, facial masks usually come with various exotic fragrances.
