Chapter 223 Little Round Face's Spring
In the office, Liu Yan was also overjoyed: "Chairman, in just a few days, because a large number of celebrities denounced Sanlu Group on Weibo, it attracted a lot of attention from netizens.
The number of Weibo users has increased by more than 10 million, and through this incident, the company has established a high image of fairness and justice in the minds of the people, which is a priceless treasure.”
Song Ci sneered, revealing a bit of indifference that saw through the world: "They are just a bunch of fence-sitters!
If I hadn't taken precautions, I would have asked the Union Hospital to come forward and hammer the Sanlu Group. How many celebrities dare to publicly support us before the matter is settled?
Now that the dust has settled, they are all jumping out to create a persona of being friendly and philanthropic, just to take the opportunity to win popularity and seek benefits for themselves. "
Wang Jing echoed in a low voice: "This is human nature. People in the entertainment industry are all shrewd people. Few stars are willing to gamble their reputation and future to cheer for Tengda.
No matter what, the fact that so many celebrities have spoken out is objectively beneficial to the growth of Weibo users, so it is somewhat useful.”
Song Ci turned around slowly, his eyes dim, as if he could see through people's hearts: "But I am still a little disappointed. It's ok for other people, but those who have worked with Tengda and several artists in the company didn't support the company at the first time.
"When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. The company provides them with resources and makes them famous, but at the critical moment, they are nowhere to be seen. It is really disappointing."
Wang Jing smiled and tried to smooth things over: "In fact, in addition to Shishi, there is also an artist in the company who publicly took sides on Weibo at the first opportunity."
"Who is it?" Song Ci became interested when he heard it. It seems that among those guys in the entertainment industry who follow the trend, there are still one or two visionary people.
"Zhao Liying, a newcomer who just joined the company."
"Oh, it's her."
"A very likable little girl, she's pretty and cute."
"It's rare to be on the same page with the company at a critical moment." Song Ci praised, then frowned slightly, with a slightly dissatisfied tone:
"Unlike Wang Luodan and Lu Yi, who kept silent on important matters and are not up to the task. Sister Jing, please tell Zhang Zhao that Tengda Culture will focus on training Zhao Liying and allocate more resources to her."
It was only when Zhao Liying and Yang Mi had a conflict last time that he found out that the company had actually signed this future top 85 flower.
It is a good opportunity to take advantage of this incident to give her a strong support and see if she can reach the same heights as in her previous life and create more value for the company.
Wang Jing was slightly startled. She was very smart and immediately guessed that the chairman might have some opinion about the two leading female artists of Tengda Culture because of this incident.
It's even more than that. It's estimated that Song Ci has a grudge against all the artists in the company. This is not a good sign.
In China, ability is never a big deal, standing on the right side at a critical moment is the most important thing. If the performance of a few artists leads to the chairman's negative opinion of the entire Tengda Culture, that would be very bad.
Song Ci naturally didn't know that Wang Jing was worried at this time, and his expression remained normal. He just ordered:
"Brother Yong is on a business trip. I have something to do at home tomorrow so I won't be coming to the company. These few days are a special period. Sister Jing, please take care of it and keep an eye on the people down there to make sure nothing goes wrong."
Wang Jing came back to her senses: "Okay, Mr. Song, don't worry."
Knock knock knock, there is a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
Assistant Song Xueying walked into the office gracefully in a sophisticated white suit, holding a high-end gift box with exquisite packaging steadily in her hand.
He greeted Wang Jing and Liu Yan first, then gently placed the gift box on the desk and said with a smile, "Boss, I have prepared the birthday gift you asked me to give you. Do you think I am satisfied?"
Song Ci came to the desk and his eyes fell on the gift box that exuded a warm luster.
Upon hearing this, Wang Jing and Liu Yan also came over to join in the fun. They thought this was the reason why the chairman would not come to the company tomorrow. It must be because an elder in the family was celebrating his birthday.
Seeing three people coming over, Song Xueying calmly opened the gift box and carefully took out the gift. It turned out to be an exquisite jade ruyi.
While holding the jade ruyi in both hands and handing it to Song Ci, he introduced: "Mr. Song, this is a ruyi carved from Hetian jade. It has a fine texture and natural veins, and symbolizes good luck, happiness and well-being.
In traditional culture, Ruyi is not only a decoration, but also a token of good wishes. It is the perfect birthday gift.”
Assistant Song, an intellectual beauty, spoke in a soft and professional voice, and it was obvious that she had put a lot of effort into this birthday gift.
Song Ci took the jade ruyi and weighed it in his hand. He felt that the weight was just right and it felt round and lustrous.
Looking down at this handicraft carefully, every detail is carved vividly.
Song Xueying stretched out her slender fingers and said, "Mr. Song, look at this. The cloud pattern design on the head of the jade ruyi symbolizes longevity and good health. The lines on the tail are smooth, as natural and harmonious as flowing water."
Song Ci played with it for a while, and then listened to a detailed explanation. He couldn't help but feel very satisfied with the gift that the assistant had carefully selected: "Senior sister is very thoughtful."
It was a little after 4 p.m., the sun was about to set, and there was less than half an hour left before Tengda Culture closed for the day.
After receiving a notice from her agent Yang Tianzhen, Zhao Liying did not dare to delay and rushed back to the company from the crew of Red Mansions, going straight to her agent's office.
The office door was open. Yang Tianzhen, who had been waiting for a long time, stood up quickly when she saw Zhao Liying coming, grabbed her hand and walked out.
"Ms. Zhang has been waiting for you. Come upstairs with me to meet her."
Zhao Liying jogged to catch up with Yang Tianzhen, panting, with a layer of fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and spoke in a staccato voice: "Sister Zhen, slow down! Mr. Zhang, what's the matter that made him so anxious to see me?"
Yang Tianzhen smiled mysteriously: "I heard it's a good thing! I don't know the details."
Zhao Liying felt a little relieved, and her originally uneasy mood relaxed. She couldn't help but look forward to the "good things" that her agent mentioned.
The two of them hurried upstairs to the general manager's office, and after getting permission, they pushed the door open and entered.
Zhang Zhao was reviewing documents, and without even looking up, he said casually, "Sit down."
After waiting for about five minutes, Zhang Zhao closed the document and looked at the two people in front of him: "I have a few things to discuss with you two."
Zhao Liying straightened her back, sat upright, and looked a little nervous. General Manager Zhang Zhao had a very dignified face, and she felt a little uncomfortable every time she faced him directly.
As if noticing the girl's reservedness, Zhang Zhao softened his tone and soothed her: "Don't panic, Liying, it's a good thing."
As he spoke, he leaned back on the leather seat and sighed, “You all know what happened between the group and Sanlu a few days ago, right?”
Yang Tianzhen immediately flattered him: "I know, the chairman is kind-hearted and speaks for the victims!"
Zhang Zhao nodded. The skills and planning displayed by Song Ci in this matter were frightening, but it was not something he should worry about.
"Liying, you were able to support the group at the first opportunity. This is commendable. The chairman and President Wang Jing are both very satisfied with you."
Zhao Liying was overjoyed, knowing that she had made the right bet!
On September 1, the group held a press conference to publicly criticize the three-way milk powder. At that time, all the celebrities and well-known public figures chose to wait and see before the matter was concluded.
She hesitated at that time, but finally decided to take a chance. At worst, if she lost the bet, she could go to the factory and work as a screwdriver.
I gritted my teeth and posted a message on Weibo to support the company as soon as possible, just to leave a good impression on the leaders.
Unexpectedly, the chairman later made a series of arrangements and defeated the Sanlu Group with great force. Other stars only spoke out after the event. In this comparison, it seemed that she and the company were of one mind.
With a shy smile, Zhao Liying whispered, "I just trust the company and don't think much about other aspects."
Zhang Zhao looked puzzled: "Yes, believe in the company! You did it, but others disappointed the group leaders.
Wang Jing and I had a phone call this morning. The chairman was very unhappy with these people and thought their positions were problematic. "
Yang Tianzhen was shocked when she heard this. Lu Yi and Wang Kai were artists in her group. She asked hurriedly, "Boss Zhang, is it that serious?"
Zhang Zhao shook his head: "I don't know what the leader thinks! Let's not talk about the others for now, I will talk to them one by one later. Let's finish talking about Liying first."
Yang Tianzhen was anxious and Zhao Liying was happy. They stared at Zhang Zhao, waiting for him to speak.
"The chairman has decided that the company will focus on training Liying in the future. Your benefits will be upgraded by one level. You will have everything that Wang Luodan and Lu Yi enjoy."
"Ah!" Zhao Liying shouted in surprise, but as soon as she finished shouting, she realized that she had lost her composure and quickly covered her mouth.
There was still some confusion in my eyes. Happiness came too suddenly. I didn't expect that my luck would turn around.
I was extremely grateful that I mustered up the courage to recommend myself to Zhang Zhao that day. Tengda Culture is truly my lucky place.
Yang Tianzhen was also stunned, and couldn't help but sigh that life's encounters were truly wonderful. The little girl who had just joined the company not long ago actually caught the attention of the group's top management.
Zhang Zhao waited until Zhao Liying calmed down a little before continuing, "The company's filming schedule for this year has been fully booked. Next year, the company will prepare two TV dramas for you to play the female lead. As for the specific types, we will discuss it later."
"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your cultivation!" Zhao Liying's voice was trembling, her eyes slightly red, and she thanked him again and again.
"Do a good job!" Zhang Zhao encouraged. Although he felt that his round face had no appearance advantage in the entertainment industry full of beauties, since the chairman had spoken, he had to respond.
The performance of an artist under Tengda Culture in the Sanlu milk powder incident caused him to lose points in front of the chairman, and he had to find a way to save the situation.
After leaving the office, Zhao Liying felt dizzy, as if everything that had just happened was not real. She held her delicate little face in her hands and laughed foolishly from time to time.
Seeing her like this, Yang Tianzhen also showed a gratified smile. The little girl can be said to have made great progress overnight. It is true that you cannot judge a book by its cover. People with drive and courage to fight and strive hard can more easily make a career in the entertainment industry where opportunities and challenges coexist.
"Next year, I will help you pay close attention to the scripts where you will play the heroine, and choose one that can highlight your appearance and temperament. Now, come with me to the artist management department to choose a life assistant for you."
"I'll follow your instructions, Zhenjie." Zhao Liying nodded obediently, walking briskly. At this moment, she truly felt that everything was different from before, and she was really going to get better.
At around seven in the evening, Zhao Liying was in a good mood and invited her agent and newly appointed assistant Li Lan to dinner to build relationships.
At this time, Liu Shishi flew back to Peking from Hengdian, but she did not go to Jingyuan today and returned to her home in the community.
As soon as she entered the house, she threw her suitcase in the living room and collapsed on the sofa: "I'm so tired!"
I was filming under the scorching sun in the morning, and in the afternoon I hurried from Hengdian to Donghai, and then transferred to a flight back to Peking. After several hours of running around, I was exhausted both physically and mentally.
Seeing her daughter looking haggard, Mother Liu asked with concern, "Have you had dinner?"
"I've eaten on the plane! Where's my dad?" Liu Shishi said listlessly. She looked around the house but didn't see her father.
"Your dad is very busy at work lately, and he won't be home until a meeting."
"Comrade Lao Liu works so hard. Mom, you have to persuade Dad to take care of his health. He is also approaching 50 years old and is not as energetic as young people."
“Don’t mention it. Ever since the Sanlu milk powder incident was exposed, your father’s “Kids King” has been doing extremely well because it mainly sells high-end imported milk powder. The store is sold out every day.
Seeing that the company's business is booming, your father is now busy working on the business from dawn to dusk every day. He is also planning to open a new store in the neighboring Jinmen City next month."
Liu Shishi opened her mouth in surprise: "Dad is so capable that he has already opened a store in Tianjin! Does he want to go public?"
Mother Liu smiled slightly, with a bit of pride on her face: "You know what, there is real hope for going public, your father's company is doing very well now.
Some time ago, Xiao Song's uncle helped him, and ICBC also approved him a low-interest loan. With the financial support, now "Kids King" is developing both online and offline, and it is in full swing. "
Miss Liu's eyes widened in surprise, and she joked with a smile: "No way, I can make money by being self-reliant, and now you tell me that I can become the daughter of the CEO of a listed company!
But it’s better to have something than nothing. In the future, my father and my husband will both be CEOs of listed companies, and I will be able to walk sideways in the small entertainment industry.”
Seeing her daughter's outspokenness, Mother Liu rolled her eyes helplessly and urged her softly, "If you are tired, wash up and rest early."
"By the way, Mom, have you bought me the birthday gift?" Liu Shishi, who was about to get up, suddenly remembered the important matter and spoke hurriedly. This was a top priority and she couldn't embarrass herself in front of Mr. Song's family tomorrow.
"You still don't trust me to do things, the things are in your room."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi went straight to her room, turned on the ceiling light, and saw an exquisite pure gold longevity peach placed on her desk.
The surface of the golden longevity peach has obviously been finely polished, and it has a silky luster under the light, like a fine work of art.
"How is it? Is it okay?" Mother Liu, who was following behind her daughter, looked pleased. She had specially asked a famous goldsmith in Peking City to make this golden longevity peach. The exquisite craftsmanship was truly extraordinary.
Liu Shishi smiled happily, hugged her mother and pecked her: "Thank you, Mom?"
"Go away, go away! You're spitting saliva on my face." Mother Liu pretended to be disgusted and gently pushed her daughter away, but she could not conceal the love and concern in her eyes.
