The next day.
"Haohan Entertainment wants to sign me?"
"Yes," the assistant said on the other end. "Would it be possible to discuss this in person?"
Xiao He held up his phone, quite surprised.
If I remember correctly, this Haohan Entertainment is the agency of that star Ran Yunrui, right?
That's one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry; I never expected they would actually reach out to him.
Xiao He naturally had no liking for this company, which mainly operated by manipulating public opinion and controlling traffic.
However, this is also a chance to get up close and personal, to see the contracts and terms of these large companies, and to broaden one's horizons.
"sure."
The two agreed on a time on the phone and then ended the call. Lin Yipeng walked over from the side and reminded Xiao He, "Haohan Entertainment is quite controversial in the industry. You'd better think it over carefully and not make a decision too early."
"Yes, I know." Xiao He nodded and explained, "It's nothing, I'll just go take a look."
So the next day, Xiao He, who had asked Lin Yipeng for leave in advance, arrived at the coffee shop first.
This is a coffee shop near the film and television base. Xiao He and Pu Rong have been here a few times and are fairly familiar with the owner.
As soon as he entered, he greeted the shop owner: "Good afternoon, Sister Zhou."
"Xiao Xiao, good afternoon." The shop owner was a plump middle-aged woman, dressed very stylishly, with a natural smile in her eyes that made her very approachable. "Isn't Xiao Pu with you today?"
"I have an appointment with someone today to discuss work," Xiao He replied with a smile.
"Oh, okay? Then I'll find you a quiet spot—"
"Okay, thank you, Sister Zhou!"
Sister Zhou found Xiao He a quiet and secluded corner so that the two could talk.
But about twenty minutes had passed, and Xiao He had drunk more than half of the coffee that had been delivered, but the person he was waiting for still hadn't arrived.
Xiao He: ...
He picked up his phone and checked it again.
I'm sure I remembered correctly.
Are all big companies so unpunctual? Or is it that they simply don't care about his existence at all?
Xiao He twitched the corner of his mouth, unusually annoyed, and decisively picked up his phone to call back the assistant who had called earlier.
On the other side, the assistant, carrying some things, jogged to catch up with Cheng Hongwen, looking somewhat anxious: "Brother Cheng, my phone rang, it should be from Xiao He—"
"Let him reschedule for another time!" Cheng Hongwen said nonchalantly. "We need to pick up Youyou right away. It would be terrible if she got mobbed at the hotel!"
"good--"
The assistant struggled to free one hand to answer Xiao He's call, but was immediately urged impatiently by Cheng Hongwen: "Hurry up! Hasn't the driver brought the car over yet?"
"I'll call him right away."
The assistant could only hang up on Xiao He temporarily and call the driver instead.
Hearing the busy tone of the call being disconnected, Xiao He was so angry he laughed.
What does this mean now? Has he been stood up?
Is this how big companies operate?
Are you making a fool of him?
Just then, a notification popped up in the notification bar at the top of the phone—
