One morning Jiang Yi transmigrates into a cannon-fodder talent agent from an entertainment novel. In the original plot she was ruined—her mediocre star jumped ship and slandered her, co-workers o...
Chapter 02 002
Seeing Jiang Yi turn around and really plan to leave, boss Liu Xiang and his colleagues began to panic.
How is this possible?!
If Jiang Yi left, who would go drink with the client and fight for resources? Who would help them work overtime to plan and draft proposals? Who would run errands and order takeout for them for free?
Although her colleagues disliked Jiang Yi and expressed their disdain for her, they also knew how important she was to the company.
They were just talking nonsense, but was Jiang Yi really... serious with them?!
Shi Xiaoyan, who was watching the show on the side, could no longer sit still and stood up to try to persuade them to stay.
"Yiyi, don't be impulsive. We have something to discuss. It's not easy to find a job these days. The boss didn't mean to be mean to you. You know, he did this for your own good. He wants to train you to be an excellent agent."
Normally in the company, Shi Xiaoyan and Jiang Yi have the best relationship, but the treatment they receive in the company is worlds apart.
Jiang Yi narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Shi Xiaoyan who was trying to block her from leaving.
The woman had long hair, a nice figure with curvy curves, and naturally smiling lips. If it were anyone else, they would subconsciously think that Shi Xiaoyan was considerate, intellectual, and generous, and that she was thinking about Jiang Yi and wanted him not to offend his boss.
But in Jiang Yi's opinion, the other party was just talking without any worries.
Then again, Shi Xiaoyan is the core member of the company and the real favorite of the boss Liu Xiang. Many of the resources that the original owner fought for fell into her hands.
If the original owner was the cannon fodder agent in the book, then Shi Xiaoyan in front of him was the "chosen koi agent" in the original book.
However, this choice of fate is gained based on the efforts of others.
Jiang Yi snorted lightly, disdainful of dealing with the other party, and went straight to the point and tore his face off.
"Of course you think this job is good. After all, you get a base salary of 38,000 yuan a month, are the boss's favorite, and even have an extramarital affair, your salary is higher than anyone else here. How can it be bad?"
As soon as Jiang Yi said this, the faces of his colleagues present all turned ashen.
The basic salary is 38,000 yuan per month!
For old employees who have worked in the company for more than 7 years, the basic salary is only 15,000 yuan, excluding the share of the artists!
How could Shi Xiaoyan, a new employee who had been in the company for less than a year, step on their heads right away?!
Everyone's gaze shifted from Jiang Yi to the boss Liu Xiang, with resentment and anger in their eyes.
He paid them such a high salary without telling them and had an extramarital affair with Shi Xiaoyan.
He didn't consider these old employees at all. It was a waste for them to have been working with Liu Xiang to pua Jiang Yi.
"You, what nonsense are you talking about!"
When her private transaction was exposed, Shi Xiaoyan immediately tried to cover it up in a panic. Her face flushed red as she anxiously retorted, "I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"
As she spoke, she became aggrieved and cried, "Jiang Yi, I treated you as a good sister, and you, you actually slandered me!"
But everyone present was an experienced person, and they just smiled and said nothing about Shi Xiaoyan's behavior.
Compared to Shi Xiaoyan, who spoke in a coquettish voice, everyone felt that the usually honest Jiang Yi was more trustworthy.
Moreover, many of them had suspected it a long time ago but never said it out loud.
Jiang Yi just put the truth in front of everyone.
Jiang Yi sneered, his eyes cold, "Whether it's true or not, you know it in your heart, and the surveillance also knows it."
"It's easy to find out with just a little research. Do you need me to explain it more clearly?"
Jiang Yi hates people who make unspoken rules, and equally hates people who follow them with a clear conscience.
Before she entered the book, an artist that Jiang Yi had managed was almost subjected to unspoken rules. If she had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Jiang Yi ordered coldly: "Get out of the way, don't block the way."
Shi Xiaoyan was frightened by Jiang Yi's words and stepped aside, her face pale.
When she came to her senses, she realized that she shouldn't have done that. She was indeed having sex with her boss in the office, but there was no camera in her office and she was tricked!
Shi Xiaoyan stomped her feet in frustration.
The colleagues present were talking about it.
"I was saying it, the boss always likes to ask her to come to his office, or goes to her office and closes the window. There must be an affair!"
"Why does it feel like Jiang Yi has become a different person? Didn't she like playing with Shi Xiaoyan the most before?"
"I've seen them in and out of the hotel together several times before. Do you think our boss lady knows about this?"
"How did Jiang Yi know about Shi Xiaoyan and the boss? Is what she said true? Is Shi Xiaoyan really a mistress?"
Of course Liu Xiang would not admit the embarrassing extramarital affair exposed by Jiang Yi.
He roared angrily, "What are you arguing about? Don't you want to do this anymore? Can you believe what Jiang Yi said?! She clearly just can't stand Xiaoyan and me. What nonsense!"
Liu Xiang had completely different attitudes towards Shi Xiaoyan and Jiang Yi. When he saw everyone talking, he immediately spoke out to stop them.
Liu Xiang defended Shi Xiaoyan: "In my heart, Xiaoyan is like my daughter. If you dare to gossip about her, I will fire you all!"
He swept his sharp eyes over all the members present.
Everyone was so frightened by Liu Xiang's words that they dared not breathe.
They didn't dare to resign without saying a word like Jiang Yi did.
Not to mention the company's profit-sharing benefits, Liu Xiang can be said to be petty in the circle.
Any agent who can't stand the company's arrangement and resigns basically has no way to survive in the circle.
They all rely on the company's salary and the share of the artists to support their families. If they lose their jobs, it will be over.
Everyone lowered their heads in silence, fearing that the fire would burn them if they were not careful.
Shi Xiaoyan's face looked very ugly, she stared at Jiang Yi's back and gritted her teeth.
She hates Jiang Yi very much!
I hated it before, and I hate it even more now!
-
Jiang Yi didn't care at all about what the people in the office thought. They were a bunch of insignificant people and he didn't need to take them to heart at all.
Instead of wasting time on Xingyao and that group of people, it is better to spend money and enjoy life happily.
Xingyao Entertainment is on the 4th floor of Hongxi Building.
Jiang Yixiao walked out with her bag in her hand and took the elevator downstairs.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw a tall and handsome figure standing next to the gate, like a statue.
He shrugged his head, as if thinking about something.
He is tall and straight, with an upright posture. Even the most ordinary security uniform looks fashionable when he wears it.
It is an existence that cannot be ignored
Jiang Yi recalled a scene from the book, quickened his pace, walked over to the man, and tentatively called out his name: "Meng Jiayu?"
The tall figure was visibly stunned. He slowly turned his head, pointed his finger at his face, and asked in disbelief, "Are you... calling me?"
Jiang Yi was delighted, her eyes dancing with joy. She wasn't sure if the other person was Meng Jiayu at first, but seeing his reaction now...
Jiang Yi was sure that the handsome guy in front of him was Meng Jiayu himself!
She is very interested in the character "Meng Jiayu"!
Meng Jiayu is one of the "three-have" artists in the book.
In the original plot, Meng Jiayu is also a cannon fodder character in the book, with talents but not enough stage to show them.
Meng Jiayu has been interested in singing and dancing since she was a child. At the age of 10, she was spotted by an entertainment company and signed as a trainee. She has been trained since she was a child and is gifted.
It’s a pity that when he was 15 years old, he offended the company’s senior management by speaking a few truths in front of the camera and was put on ice for many years.
Despite this, he never gave up his dream of being on stage.
During those years of being in hiding, I studied hard and worked diligently.
Meng Jia's family is not wealthy. His parents are ordinary workers. In order to reduce the burden on the family, he has been working part-time and studying part-time. Finally, with his own strength, he was admitted to the best music college in the country.
Unfortunately, after graduating from the music conservatory, no company dared to sign him as an artist.
In order to realize his dream of being on stage, Meng Jiayu set his sights on Yaoxing Media Entertainment Company, a company with a relatively good reputation in the circle, but all his resumes submitted to Yaoxing Media fell into the sea.
Meng Jiayu had no choice but to work to earn some money to support himself, so he became a security guard.
The workplace is just downstairs from Jiang Yi’s company.
Jiang Yi didn't expect to run into Meng Jiayu on duty at the door by such a coincidence.
This is good, she doesn't have to come back to this place to find him again.
Meng Jiayu had an impression of Jiang Yi.
During his daily work, he often saw Jiang Yi running around with artists, leaving early and returning late.
In the past, he had fantasized about having an agent to take him to various events, but unfortunately, such a life was too luxurious for him at the moment.
Meng Jiayu has now let things go. He can feel that someone is deliberately suppressing him behind the scenes. His parents both advised him to return to his hometown, take the civil service exam, and give up his musical dream.
But he always wanted to hold on a little longer, he wanted the stage.
I want a fair chance to compete.
Jiang Yi nodded at the other party and smiled very friendly: "Yes."
"I see you have great potential. I wonder if you're interested in becoming a star?"
Jiang Yi spoke frankly and got straight to the point.
Her lifespan is closely related to the popularity of the "three-have" artists. For every 888 points increase in the artist's popularity, she can live one more day.
Meng Jiayu's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing Jiang Yi's words, but soon the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
Over the years, there has been no shortage of scouts and agents who have said this to him.
However, when they went back to investigate, they all said to him regretfully: "Sorry, our company cannot sign you."
Later, he found out that he had been "blacklisted" by most entertainment companies.
Looking at the friendly smile on Jiang Yi's face, Meng Jiayu thought that the other party might not know his situation yet.
He confessed, "I once offended the son of the chairman of Yaoxing Media."
Yes, he had offended Pan Hongfang, the son of the chairman of Yaoxing Media.
Pan Hongfang once ran an entertainment company called Qufeng Entertainment, which recruited not only adult artists but also underage artists.
When he was 15 years old, Meng Jiayu was called by the staff to meet the company boss Pan Hongfang.
Being young at that time, Meng Jiayu didn’t think much about it and went to meet the boss.
After meeting the boss, the staff asked him, "How does it feel to meet the boss?"
Meng Jiayu didn't hide anything and told the truth: "The boss is pretty good, but a little too enthusiastic. He likes to touch me, which makes me feel uncomfortable, and he always says some weird things."
When these words were spoken, the staff were shocked. They did not expect Meng Jiayu's answer to be like this. They also told him not to tell this matter to anyone.
The fact that the boss Pan Hongfang is gay is also known to the internal staff.
Later, when he grew up a little, Meng Jiayu realized that it was called workplace sexual harassment.
Jiang Yi knew.
She knew the plot of the original book and everything that Meng Jia had encountered.
That's why she wanted to help him.
Even if her life span had nothing to do with his popularity, she would still help him.
This comes from an agent's initial love for a good seedling.
Moreover, with the Godly Rich System in hand, she is the world's biggest capitalist and has nothing to fear.
"I know."
Jiang Yi still smiled and nodded, firmly choosing him, "I also know that you used to be a trainee at Qufeng Entertainment."
After hearing Jiang Yi's words, Meng Jiayu's originally dim eyes lit up again. He was a little bit unconvinced: "You know everything?"
Jiang Yi curved his eyebrows and said, "I've researched your experience and would like to have your cooperation."
She stated her purpose again.
Meng Jiayu was worried, hesitant, and uncertain: "Will the company... agree?"
Meng Jiayu didn't know that Jiang Yi had already resigned from Xingyao Entertainment. He thought she was still Xingyao's agent and asked this question instinctively.
Yaoxing Entertainment and Xingyao Entertainment are both well-known entertainment companies in the circle.
Although the two companies are rivals, they still maintain superficial peace. After Meng Jiayu knew that he could not sign with Yaoxing Entertainment, he submitted his resume to Xingyao Entertainment.
But, it was also rejected.
Xingyao Entertainment will not cause trouble to itself because of an unknown person.
Jiang Yi remembered something and smiled frankly, "I forgot to mention that I've resigned from Xingyao Entertainment. I'm not bound by any company. I want to run my own company and be my own boss. You're the first artist I want to bring on board when I start my own business."
"If you are willing to cooperate with me, I will do my best to help you obtain resources and will not let you do anything you don't want to do. This is my promise."
Jiang Yi spoke very confidently, with pride in her brows. She took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Meng Jiayu.
Meng Jiayu was slightly stunned. He had never expected that Jiang Yi had resigned.
How difficult is it to start from the bottom in the entertainment industry?
But for some reason, looking at the bright and beautiful girl in front of him who was half a head shorter than him, he inexplicably developed a sense of trust in her.
Jiang Yi now has a very strange magnetic field, as if she can accomplish anything she wants to do.
Meng Jiayu didn't think for long.
He had nothing to begin with, so why would he be afraid of starting from scratch?
Just take a gamble.
Meng Jiayu nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you."
He was willing to believe her.
He didn't even ask Jiang Yi about benefits and compensation, and was willing to go with her without saying a word.
Jiang Yi raised her eyebrows, finding that this artist was a little simple, but his personality was very much to her liking.
It is a great honor to be able to work with him.
Jiang Yi took out the car keys from her bag, twirled them around her fingers, happiness written all over her face: "Then come with me."
Meng Jiayu looked up and asked in confusion, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Yi smiled and said two words: "Shopping mall."
She wants to help Meng Jiayu "change his appearance"!
"Could you please wait a moment? I'll talk to the security guy and change my clothes."
Meng Jiayu politely asked Jiang Yi for his opinion.
Jiang Yi was not in a hurry, very patient, without the slightest hint of impatience: "Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
"Thank you." Meng Jiayu said "thank you" out of habit.
During the three months that Meng Jiayu has been working at Hongxi Building, he has been very lucky thanks to the care of the security guy.
When the security guy learned that Meng Jiayu was going to sign a contract to become an artist, he was happy for him from the bottom of his heart and encouraged him not to give up his dream.
After saying goodbye to the security guard, Meng Jiayu changed into casual clothes, a black T-shirt and black pants, followed Jiang Yi and walked out of the door with her.
At this time, colleagues in the office building were looking down through the huge glass windows.
They were ready to watch Jiang Yi leave with the intention of watching the show. They stared at the door for a long time and finally waited for Jiang Yi to come out. However, they did not expect to see Jiang Yi sitting in the driver's seat of a global limited edition Rolls-Royce.
He was accompanied by the security guard Meng Jiayu from downstairs.
!
Everyone was stunned:???
Did they see it right???
Jiang Yi drives an eight-figure luxury car?
When did Jiang Yi become so rich?! How come I didn't know?
That would be fine, but Jiang Yi actually took away "Meng Jiayu", who was blacklisted by many companies?!
What does she want to do?
