The Villain and the Cannon Fodder’s Mother
Chapter 56
Chapter 56 – I wasn’t poisoned after all (2)
Meng Yan had no idea that his ex-wife’s opening her own restaurant was in full swing.
Right now, he was sitting next to his agent in the conference room of Shengshi Entertainment.
Sitting across from them were the team members from the Strategy Department.
The manager of the Strategy Department waited until Meng Yan was almost done with the document before he chose his words wisely, “The company is considering investing in this program, and the upper management has high hopes for this. Parent-child reality shows had been oddly popular with the audiences in the variety show category lately.”
He paused there and looked up at the Film Emperor, “If I am not mistaken, you have two kids, right? And the younger one is still in kindergarten?”
Meng Yan had a solemn look and did not respond to him right away.

Awkwardly, his agent Yu Xiaofei chimed in, “But Yan-ge’s ex-wife has the guardianship of their two children.”
“So what? Just explained the benefits to Ms. Lin and that’d be that. The kid would also get paid to be on the show. With Mr. Meng’s status, your daughter’s compensation would be in the range of a 7-digit figure.”
Plenty of famous actors and actresses went on shows with their children. Once the show was televised, the children would be well known as well. Followed that up with an advertisement and an endorsement, these child actors would immediately make more than some second and third tier actors!
From the standpoint of an agent, he knew that Meng Yan’s income was tied directly to his own. Naturally, he wouldn’t want Meng Yan to pass up on this opportunity.
The interaction between the actors and their children would always positively impact their image. Between the compensation that he’d be receiving plus the impact on his image, this was no doubt a win-win situation.
Meng Yan, on the other hand, thought for a long while before he finally shook his head.
Right when Yu Xiaofei was about to signal him to give it some more thought before he declined the opportunity, Meng Yan went on to say, “Lin Yiyi is in no shortage of money. She wouldn’t agree to me taking the child out just for that; however…”
The twist at the end of his words piqued everyone’s interest so nobody interrupted him.
“If it’s just a matter of money, that’d be easy. But I worry that she’d bring up other conditions if I go and talk to her about this. I am not confident that I will be able to talk her into this…”
He was already married to Xiying. It’s best that he has no more contact with Lin Yiyi. That’d be best for everyone involved.
That was the main reason that he didn’t have a lot of contact with his children. If it wasn’t Shanshan’s birthday the other day, he never would have gone to the Lin’s mansion.
The manager of the Strategy Department thought about it for a little bit and said, “Just promise her whatever conditions that she brings up. She’s just a woman. You can always talk her down after the show had aired.”
Meng Yan did not give him a definitive answer but just said that he’d need more time to think it through.
After Meng Yan had taken off, the manager urged Yu Xiaofei to talk to Meng Yan some more, “The company has high hopes in this program. The viewership will for sure hit the roof if Mr. Meng would join the show… Aye, is his ex-wife the once-known actress Lin Yiyi?”
“Once-known” was definitely an overstatement. She was never known by anyone, alright. She had been lingering in the 18th tier all the way until she had phased out of entertainment. Many people never even knew her name or how she looks.
