Chang Zhiqing took a look at the luxurious helicopter on the set and complained quietly, "Look at that helicopter you bought. You bought it for the crew, right?"
In fact, Yang Ruoqian had planned to fly to the set by helicopter today, but the route approval process was too long and was still under review, so they had to drive over.
"It doesn't matter. This thing is noisy to sit in." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand. "How can it be as comfortable as sitting in a sedan?"
"Yeah, you take the car every day, and I'm almost like your exclusive driver." Chang Zhiqing complained again, "I don't have to do anything, so of course it's comfortable... Or why don't you just give me two salaries?"
When Yang Ruoqian heard that someone wanted to get two salaries, he immediately became excited: "Really? You want two salaries?"
Chang Zhiqing pushed Yang Ruoqian with her other hand and said, "Forget it. I won't cause any more trouble for your company... I don't want to be one of those aunts and uncles in those melodramatic TV dramas who mess up the protagonist's company."
In fact, during this period, Chang Zhiqing has received many calls from relatives and friends.
For some reason, the "loving and loving" family who had been silent for a long time suddenly became lively.
Some relatives suddenly posted the latest news about their children in the group, bragging about how capable their children are, while also lamenting that it is not easy to find a job nowadays and that without connections, one will run into obstacles everywhere.
Then he hypocritically asked @常芷晴 and her parents whether they had any "relationship" or something like that.
Although Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing are both involved in the entertainment industry, they are not insiders and have not deliberately concealed their relationship. Anyone who is interested can know their relationship.
As the boss lady of Kuiguang Group, it shouldn't be difficult for her to help her relatives and friends get two people into the company, right? However, Chang Zhiqing, who occasionally posted updates on her circle of friends and showed off her little fun things in life, didn't respond to her relatives at all.
No matter what they said in the group, she pretended not to hear a word.
Now she and Yang Ruoqian are a real family. No matter in terms of feelings or interests, they prosper and suffer together.
From an emotional point of view, those distant relatives whom you haven't seen for several years are a million miles away from the man you have been pursuing for several years; from an interest perspective, adding people to the company has no other effect except reducing its efficiency and spoiling its corporate culture.
So Chang Zhiqing simply ignored them.
Anyway, Chang Zhiqing didn’t go home for the Chinese New Year last year.
After touring the set, the two sat down in the room provided for them by the staff to rest and also check the progress of the afternoon's filming.
As soon as Yang Ruoqian sat down, he turned on his mobile phone and began to clear out all the useless messages on his phone as usual.
When a person becomes successful, he will inexplicably have more friends.
Not only Chang Zhiqing, but also Yang Ruoqian had many more messages on his phone than before.
Some people wanted to ask for a job, some wanted to ask for projects, and some even wanted to buy some original shares of Kuiguang Group from Yang Ruoqian, hoping to make a fortune when the company goes public in the future.
In the eyes of many people, given the current profitability and scale of Kuiguang Group, it is only a matter of time before it goes public.
After completing the process of several years, they can sell the company's shares in glory and cash out successfully.
"Tsk, I see you've been receiving similar messages quite often recently." Yang Ruoqian cleared the message and complained, "You don't say anything, aren't you afraid that you'll be tortured by your relatives when you go home for the New Year?"
Chang Zhiqing drank a glass of water and said, "I have been a child of other people's families since I was young, and now I am the boss lady of Kuiguang Group that they envy. How can they torture me? Aren't they afraid that I can turn the tables on them?"
No matter how hard you work for half your life, you still haven't achieved as much as Chang Zhiqing, and every word from your relatives who are not close enough to you may be a boomerang back at you.
"I'm sure a lot of your relatives have asked you to bring their children into the company. Why don't you agree to one or two?"
Chang Zhiqing glared at Yang Ruoqian and said, "This is your company, your hard work, why should I destroy it for outsiders? As for you, there must be more relatives who want to establish a relationship with you, why do you seem to not care at all?"
Yang Ruoqian smiled and said, "It's okay to help, but I just hate being morally blackmailed. Besides, if these relatives come to the company, they might bring bad atmosphere."
Kuiguang Group can lose money, but Yang Ruoqian also doesn't want to see the chaotic environment in the company.
If losing money means turning the company into a garbage dump, it is better not to lose the money.
Even if one project doesn't fail, there will be thousands of projects waiting to fail in the future. However, once the company environment starts to deteriorate, it will take a lot of effort to change it back.
For example, when the university counselor asked Yang Ruoqian for help, he did not refuse - although these college students got in to some extent through connections, they had no way of relying on these connections to do anything within the company.
Chang Zhiqing nodded, opened WeChat, and handed her phone to Yang Ruoqian: "Take a look for yourself, what are these relatives who I haven't seen for several years saying... Isn't it just adding trouble to myself to recruit these people?"
Yang Ruoqian picked up the phone and took a look at it.
"@常芷晴. Xiao Chang, my child will graduate in a year. Can you help arrange it? Oh, I still remember that I went to your house for dinner when you had your full moon banquet, but you probably don't remember these..."
Oh my goodness, the full moon seat...
Why are you bringing up all these trivial things?
"@常芷晴. Haven't you been back for a long time? Haven't seen each other for many years. Take some time to come back this year and introduce some people of the same age. We are all relatives, so we can get to know each other better."
"Zhiqing, I heard that you're married? When will the wedding banquet be held? We're planning to give you a bigger gift..."
“…”
Yang Ruoqian returned the phone to Chang Zhiqing, shook his head and said, "Fortunately, our parents are more reasonable, hahaha."
"Yeah." Chang Zhiqing took back the phone, "There aren't that many bad things. The situation should be similar over there."
While the two were chatting, the intermission on the set was over. All the actors began to line up in an orderly manner, led by their respective staff, and took their seats.
The other extras put on football uniforms and entered the stadium under the director's command.
Soon, several helicopters descended from the sky, and the athletes of the protagonist side walked down from several rented helicopters, while Zhang Wei and Feng Luo, dressed in luxury brands, made a stunning appearance from the most luxurious helicopter.
It really has the flavor of a nouveau riche.
“…”
More than half an hour passed quickly.
Just as the two were watching with great interest, suddenly a furtive figure slipped in from the farthest point of vision.
The two people sitting at the top noticed this person immediately.
Chang Zhiqing was stunned for a moment, pointed at the figure, and asked uncertainly: "Then, is that Xiao Shang?"
Yang Ruo looked at her modestly for three or four seconds, then said with certainty: "One hundred percent, it must be her!"
"Isn't she filming a TV series? Why is she here on the set?" Chang Zhiqing asked in surprise, "And where is Wen Ruoxiu? Hasn't she been following Shang Qianyu?"
Yang Ruoqian still had his eyes half closed: "Wen Ruoxiu only follows Shang Qianyu when she is working. She probably just finished filming and has nothing to do so she's wandering around."
As a giant street stalker of Kuiguang Group, Shang Qianyu's hangouts are not limited to the company. She has also been to other film sets where she is working, restaurants around Kuiguang Group, and even the Shelter Company.
For this reason, it was photographed by many "enthusiastic people" and posted online.
The actors on the set had just finished the first scene, and many extras saw Shang Qianyu waving frantically at Feng Luo not far away.
Feng Luo, who had delivered takeout with Shang Qianyu, simply pretended that he saw nothing.
Mr. Yang, who had been in the observation room, didn’t want to see his first-line star embarrass himself again, so he took out his phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Shang Qianyu: "Hurry up, it’s the observation room right in front of you! Don’t embarrass me again."
The figure not far away took out his phone, glanced at the message in shock, and then began typing on the screen: "Oh oh oh?! Boss, are you here too?"
"Yes, I have already sent a message to the staff. Come up quickly. I just happen to have something to tell you."
"Here I come!"
Shang Qianyu put away his phone and jogged towards the observation room.
Yang Ruoqian also pulled Chang Zhiqing up and said, "Let's go out and sit in the audience first. Everyone there can see what we are doing."
If Shang Qianyu walked into Yang Ruoqian's private room alone, with so many people at the scene, there would definitely be a lot of gossip after being photographed.
Soon, Shang Qianyu came to the two of them and saluted them: "Boss, Boss Lady, do you have any instructions for me?"
"It's not an important mission." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand. "How is the filming of your TV series going?"
Speaking of this, Shang Qianyu's mouth twitched: "Boss, don't mention it. I just finished filming so I have time to wander around."
"Filming finished?" Yang Ruoqian was suddenly curious. "I heard that the show has only been filmed for two-thirds. How did you suddenly finish it?"
Although Shang Qianyu did not play the heroine, I heard that there is no such role as a heroine in this drama.
And the role she played was a very important supporting role.
The entire drama has nearly 40 episodes, and it’s only two-thirds done?
Shang Qianyu was a little confused: "Yeah, two-thirds of the way through the show, the timeline suddenly jumped a dozen years, and then the director told me that I was killed in a car accident during those ten years. Then the filming was wrapped."
Yang Ruoqian almost laughed out loud: "Did you accidentally offend the director or screenwriter, and they forced you to die? So, do you need the company to provide you with legal assistance?"
Shang Qianyu scratched his head: "Alas, no... The director, editor and other actors were all very nice to me, and that's indeed how the plot was arranged."
"Really? Don't let others cheat you."
Even though this silly kid looks silly, he is actually not very smart and he might have been tricked by the director.
"Boss, it's really okay. My senior sister has also watched it, and she also thinks that wrapping up is reasonable." Shang Qianyu found a seat and sat down. "And from my professional point of view, this drama is definitely good and will be a big hit when it is released. Believe me!"
Since Wen Ruoxiu has the same judgment, then there shouldn't be any big problem.
Although Shang Qianyu is unreliable, she, as a senior, is quite reliable.
As for the fact that the TV series would become a big hit after its release, Yang Ruoqian didn't care that much - no matter how popular the TV series was, Shang Qianyu had already received his salary and it had nothing to do with Kuiguang Group.
The most it can do is allow Shang Qianyu to firmly establish his position as a first-line star.
This hidden influence is not a problem for Mr. Yang - the promotional video is of a public welfare nature anyway, and it won't make a penny at the box office, so it doesn't matter how famous Shang Qianyu is.
"Okay, okay, congratulations on your new film's success." Yang Ruoqian congratulated him perfunctorily. "By the way, since you've finished filming, let me tell you about your next plans."
Shang Qianyu has always been obedient to Kuiguang Group, and his face immediately straightened: "Boss, you say, I can go through fire and water."
"First of all, there is the matter of the 'Golden Horse Foundation Awards'. The awards ceremony will be held soon. As a guest of honor, you have to think of a congratulatory speech."
Shang Qianyu was stunned. "Congratulatory speech? Aren't these speeches usually written by the company for the judges, and then the judges just have to memorize them?"
"You're not that stupid." Yang Ruoqian looked at him with some respect. "But our company is different from other companies, and our award is also different from other awards. It's useless to highlight one, so just say whatever you want to say."
You can say whatever you want...
That sounds pretty good.
"No problem!" Shang Qianyu patted his chest and promised, "I will definitely say something nice at the award ceremony."
Yang Ruoqian nodded: "Also, I have prepared a big job for you, do you want to know?"
Shang Qianyu immediately became curious: "What big job? I want to know too!"
"The company and the government have recently reached a cooperation agreement and plan to shoot an anti-fraud promotional film." Yang Ruoqian said with a smile, "After careful consideration by the group's senior management, we plan to make you the promotional ambassador for the anti-fraud promotional film. How about it? Are you touched?"
Shang Qianyu's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? I can be a publicity ambassador?!"
"Yes, but there is a small price to pay." Yang Ruoqian reminded, "After all, it is a public welfare promotional film. You may have to devote most of your time to it in the near future, and you won't be able to take on other work. The company will still pay you, but after all, it is a promotional film, and you can't expect the ratings. It will also affect your exposure in the near future. What do you think?"
Shang Qianyu didn't even think twice: "No problem! Being the publicity ambassador is already very interesting. Boss, you'd better not pay me... Improving the company's image is everyone's responsibility."
"That won't work. I have to pay you for the film." Yang Ruoqian flatly rejected Xiao Shang's good intentions. "Okay, that's it. I'll go back first."
"Boss, Madam, can I take a ride?"
Chang Zhiqing looked at Shang Qianyu with some pity: "The car can only seat two people. Let me call the company's special car for you... By the way, you haven't bought a car yet?"
Shang Qianyu wailed in despair: "Woo, thank you, boss lady... I didn't pass the driving test! I just don't want to hire a driver, I want to drive myself!"
She has no time to make up for the exam recently, because the Golden Image Foundation Awards will be presented in a while. (End of this chapter)
