Chapter 1142: Chapter 1134: Let’s Negotiate Terms 8

"I’ve seen your work." Tiana Thorne stared at Perry White: "Your ideas are indeed innovative, but there are too many talented people like this. They’re everywhere. The competition in the domestic market is intense. Maybe you haven’t gone back home to take a closer look. There are countless people better than you. If you want to break into the entertainment industry and get your work shown to others, turned into a TV drama, and even make it big, it requires a lot of manpower and resources. You can’t just say this is my dream to be a screenwriter and expect it to happen, to meet good opportunities, and become famous, to stand before the audience."

"Some people spend years building up their work just to show it to an audience. If it doesn’t become popular, it gets forgotten. This is the age of traffic; no one cares about the values your story brings to people. Traffic is king, your team, your resources, and of course, your talent."

Tiana placed talent last.

Talent certainly is important.

But without exposure, without letting others see it, talent means nothing.

It only makes a person numb with confidence and lose other abilities.

Tiana knew that Perry was proud, after all, she didn’t have the experience of going through hardship to achieve success.

As a young lady of wealth and privilege, she doesn’t understand the hardships of life.

For a screenwriter entering the entertainment industry, connections are extremely important.

And the resources Tiana Thorne possessed were enough to elevate Perry White to the pinnacle of success.

Perry knew Tiana Thorne was an actress, and quite a famous one at that. She had also looked into Tiana’s background.

The resources behind her, and her background, were enough to astonish anyone.

Previously, she thought Tiana Thorne was just a star, to put it harshly, merely an actress. If she couldn’t compare beauty, then she’d compare family background.

But upon looking into Tiana’s information, Perry realized she had oversimplified.

Tiana was far more complex.

She was acquainted with many big names in the industry and had significant connections.

It was baffling.

She also worried whether Tiana pursued fame and fortune and might make Aiden Shaw wear a metaphorical green hat.

Compared to Tiana, she truly was like a speck of dust.

A feeling she had never experienced before.

Tiana said, "This isn’t a loss for you; when faced with the choice between a man and a career, choose one. The person you like doesn’t like you back. If you persist, it might all be for nothing. Weigh it out, what’s more important."

Perry bit her lip. She had planned to return home even before she met Aiden Shaw.

She wanted to be a screenwriter, hoping that one day television and films written by her would be famous worldwide.

Just thinking about it made her happy.

Now that an opportunity has arisen, should she really give it up?

So she was very conflicted.

"And, let me remind you," Tiana’s lips curled into a justified smile: "A woman can’t focus all her thoughts on a man. Having some skills that can back you up, becoming the kind of person you want to be, is far better than being despised by others. If all you have is love, do you think that person will like you?"

"Blindly pursuing love is a very foolish act."

This was a warning to Perry that giving up this opportunity for Aiden Shaw was truly foolish.

She would end up gaining nothing.

Perry wasn’t senseless either. She wanted Aiden Shaw, but if it were just cheap affection, Aiden Shaw wouldn’t give her a second glance.

Not receiving any response in a short time would even draw his disdain.

One day, if she stood on equal footing with Aiden Shaw, perhaps it would be different.

"Do you really have a way, you’re not lying to me?" Perry hesitantly inquired.
