Chapter 135 Who is threatening whom?

Hu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "We were just discussing the new TV series. My new play is called "Mu Guiying". When it is broadcast, if there are any shortcomings, please give me some advice, Mr. Ji."

Ji Sheng recognized Hu Xiaoxiao and smiled with admiration, "I recognize you, Hu Xiaoxiao. I've seen both of your dramas. They're well made."

The dramas he makes have high ratings and advertisements come to him automatically. How could the big boss not know such an employee who can make money?

"Lu Sheng and Charlie said the same thing, so they specially arranged a drama with a female lead for me. I put a lot of thought into this drama. I looked for screenwriters, researched materials, and read books. It took me a lot of time to decide on "Mu Guiying."

Hu Xiaoxiao recounted the hard work she put into preparing for "Mu Guiying." Seeing the four treasures of the study placed nearby, she said, "Mr. Ji, why don't you write a calligraphy for my new drama to bring me good luck and wish it a huge hit in the ratings?"

The boss is of course the happiest person when his employees are motivated and willing to work hard.

How could Ji Sheng refuse?

In addition to the artworks and antiques on display, the art exhibition also invited a pianist to entertain the audience, and prepared the four treasures of the study for celebrities with elegant tastes to show their talents.

Ji Sheng walked to the desk and asked Hu Xiaoxiao, "What do you want me to write?"

Hu Xiaoxiao said: "The ratings are high."

Ji Sheng nodded. He also liked these four words very much. It would be best if every drama had long-lasting ratings.

With a flourish of his pen, he wrote the four big words "long-lasting ratings" in one breath.

Hu Xiaoxiao stepped forward and praised: "Ji Sheng's calligraphy is dignified and solemn, unrestrained and elegant, with the demeanor of a gentleman, making people feel refreshed when reading it."

"Praise, praise."

Just as Ji Sheng was about to sign his name, Hu Xiaoxiao raised a small suggestion, "Ji Sheng, could you please indicate in the inscription that these four characters were written for my new play, 'Mu Guiying'? Ji Sheng wrote this specifically for me, and it would be so impressive if I could show it off."

Seeing Hu Xiaoxiao looking at him expectantly with sparkling eyes, Ji Sheng laughed and said, "You really are a child. Okay, I'll write it down."

So, Ji Sheng wrote on the top of the inscription: Congratulations to Hu Xiaoxiao for "Mu Guiying". Finally, he signed his name and wrote the date at the bottom.

As soon as I finished writing, Qiu Lihua came over with tea.

Qiu Lihua had a rare opportunity to follow Ji Sheng into this circle, and he served Ji Sheng meticulously. Ji Sheng's stomach had not been very good in the past few days, so seeing that Ji Sheng was thirsty, Qiu Lihua personally poured him a cup of warm tea.

Seeing Hu Xiaoxiao standing next to Ji Sheng, Qiu Lihua was obviously stunned for a moment.

How did Hu Xiaoxiao, a little star, get in?

"Hello, Mr. Qiu." Hu Xiaoxiao greeted Qiu Lihua.

Qiu Lihua subconsciously asked, "Who did you come with?"

"I came here alone." Hu Xiaoxiao picked up Ji Sheng's handwriting and showed it to Qiu Lihua. "Take a look at Ji Sheng's handwriting. How is it?"

"Of course Ji Sheng's handwriting is good." Qiu Lihua handed the warm water to Ji Sheng with both hands, looked at the words, and praised Ji Sheng's calligraphy.

However, when he saw the inscription: Congratulations to Hu Xiaoxiao for "Mu Guiying"?

He can understand the long-term high ratings, but what does it mean that He Hu Xiaoxiao's "Mu Guiying" has long-term high ratings?

Qiu Lihua was about to say that Wang Shasha would play the role of Mu Guiying, but Hu Xiaoxiao spoke before him, "Mr. Qiu should be well aware that I put so much thought and effort into the play 'Mu Guiying'. I did this not only to not disappoint the high regard of the company's top management, but also to take the company's performance to the next level. The interests of the company are of paramount importance to me, and I'm sure they are equally important to Mr. Qiu, right?"

Ji Shengyi smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so dedicated at such a young age. This is rare."

Hu Xiaoxiao also smiled and said, "It's rare that Ji Sheng gave me this stage, so of course I have to cherish it. Ji Sheng, I am a new woman of the new era, and dedication and professionalism are my professional ethics."

Tan Yinglian nodded and said to Ji Sheng, "Young people nowadays, regardless of gender, are equally capable."

"I believe it. There are many outstanding women in my company, and I have always admired them." Ji Sheng said kindly.

Hu Xiaoxiao said confidently, "I believe that in the future, I will be one of the women that Ji Sheng admires very much, and the most dazzling one."

Ji Sheng couldn't help but laugh, "Great, you have ambition! No wonder the ancients said the young are to be feared. I'll remember you, my young daughter. Please don't let me down."

"No, if you don't believe me, Ji Sheng, just wait and see how the performance of 'Mu Guiying' starring me gets."

Qiu Lihua was completely unable to get a word in. Hu Xiaoxiao was particularly good at coaxing people, and Ji Sheng was very happy. Several female celebrities stood on Hu Xiaoxiao's side, making him afraid to say anything.

He said he was the general manager of Bao Hong Kong Taiwan, but in reality he was just a high-ranking employee. The boss was in a good mood, and if he spoiled the boss's mood and embarrassed the boss in front of his friends, the consequences would not be what he wanted to see.

Hu Xiaoxiao seemed to have just noticed Qiu Lihua's presence and said to him with a smile, "Mr. Qiu, the cast for 'Mu Guiying' has been assembled, and we can prepare to start filming. As the general manager of the company, you must support me. I'm young, and besides helping the company make money, I don't know anything else. I hope Mr. Qiu will give me more guidance. Let's work together to create more profits for the company, and everything is for the company's benefit. Okay?"

He kept saying it was all for the company's benefit, but with such a heavy accusation against him, what else could Qiu Lihua do? Furthermore, the fact that he was trying to steal the show was inherently selfish, so he didn't dare to openly argue with Hu Xiaoxiao.

Qiu Lihua could only smile broadly as he replied, "Of course, of course. But it's best if you can continue to create profits for the company."

The implication is self-evident.

"It's the same for everyone." Hu Xiaoxiao ignored Mr. Qiu's threat. He turned around and said to Ji Sheng in a playful manner, "Ji Sheng, you heard it. Mr. Qiu said he would help me. If he breaks his promise, remember to scold him."

Ji Sheng happily agreed.

Hu Xiaoxiao was so happy that she chatted with Ji Sheng for a while. When she saw Ji Sheng was interested in an ancient painting, she took a closer look and said to Ji Sheng, "This painting is good. It's quite new."

Ancient paintings, she said they looked very new...

Antiques are always difficult to distinguish between real and fake, so it is not surprising that fakes appear here.

Ji Sheng then asked her, "Can you appreciate calligraphy and painting?"

Hu Xiaoxiao doesn’t know how to appreciate the value of calligraphy and paintings, but she can feel how long something has been there and whether it is new or old.

"I know a little bit." Hu Xiaoxiao said confidently.

So, Ji Sheng asked Hu Xiaoxiao to accompany him to look at a few more pictures, and Hu Xiaoxiao selected a few old things for him, ancient paintings whose ages matched the years of the artists.

Ji Sheng was very satisfied and praised Hu Xiaoxiao several times.
