At the apartment, Lu Xueqing was somewhat stunned when she learned that Zhao Fei had given her control of the company.
"Xiyan, are you sure you're not mistaken? Zhao Fei is the guy you introduced to me yesterday? Mr. Zhao's cousin? He's really willing to invest in us and even give me controlling shares?"
Lu Xueqing simply couldn't understand how such a good thing could exist. They were investing in her for free and even giving her controlling shares.
Lu Xueqing looked wary. "He wouldn't be after me, would he?"
"Oh, Xueqing, you're overthinking it!" Liu Xiyan said, blushing. "Actually, Dafei and I are together. He invested in you because of me!"
"Huh? You're dating him?" Lu Xueqing looked completely bewildered. Then she put on a suspicious expression.
She had sensed something was wrong before; why would Zhao Chuansheng kick Liu Xiyan out for no reason?
Now she understands a little better.
Liu Xiyan blushed and bit her lip, saying, "Don't think nonsense! Dafei and I only confirmed our relationship last night! Actually, Zhao Chuansheng and I have been having conflicts for a long time! If he can find someone else, why can't I? I deliberately went to Dafei just to spite him!"
Lu Xueqing shook her head helplessly and advised, "Xiyan, as a friend, I still want to give you some advice: marriage is not easy, so cherish it as you go. I think you and President Zhao still have feelings for each other, there's no need to make things this way..."
"Alright, Xueqing, you don't need to try to persuade me anymore. Zhao Chuansheng and I really can't go back!"
Liu Xiyan waved her hand, "Alright, alright! Zhao Fei said he'll transfer 30 million to you in a bit, let's quickly figure out how to get the company up and running!"
With Liu Xiyan's help, Lu Xueqing's holding company was about to be established.
In fact, Lu Xueqing was quite happy, mainly because she was able to hold a controlling stake. This meant she was working for herself and being her own boss. Compared to working for Zhao Chuansheng, this gave her a sense of being in charge.
Even before the company was officially established, she was already preparing to plan projects for the new company.
She had previously been interested in a physical store project and had mentioned it to Zhao Chuansheng, but Zhao Chuansheng thought that physical stores were too slow to generate income and did not approve it.
Lu Xueqing felt this was a long-term investment with potential. Since Zhao Chuansheng wasn't going to do it, she would take the project to her new company.
However, to do this project in the early stages, we need to promote it offline and make a name for ourselves in Xidu.
Therefore, it is necessary to rely on the traffic of some celebrities.
For example, big stars like Gong Li.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xueqing called Gong Li and explained the situation.
Gong Li naturally dared not neglect Madam Lin, but at the same time she was in a dilemma.
"Ms. Lu, as you know, I've signed an advertising contract with Chuansheng Company, and I also have other commitments to make. My schedule is full, and I simply can't find the time!"
"However, since you've started your own company, I can cancel my cooperation with Chuansheng Company and sign a contract with you with just one word!" Gong Li said in a solicitous tone.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqing immediately objected, "No, no, no! President Zhao has been good to me, how could I undermine him! Let's forget about it then, I'll look for someone else!"
Gong Li thought for a moment and said, "President Lu, how about I recommend someone to you? This is my younger brother, a top-tier idol, but he's currently blacklisted, which has affected his career. However, his fame is undeniable. Although he's blacklisted and can't do online advertising, he can still do offline concerts and performances!"
"I see!" Lu Xueqing thought for a moment and said, "My offline store is positioned to target young people. Does it have many young fans?"
"Don't worry about that!" Gong Li assured her immediately. "My brother's target audience is the post-2000 generation. Oh my, those young girls are head over heels for him! By the way, his name is Xiao Zhankun, you should know him, right?"
"Xiao Zhankun?" Lu Xueqing was taken aback; it seemed she had indeed heard of him.
"Alright! Thank you, Miss Gong!" Lu Xueqing finally agreed.
"You're welcome! It's my pleasure!"
After exchanging pleasantries, the two hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xueqing immediately went online to search for something.
Xiao Zhankun is a young singer and up-and-coming actor who has appeared in...
"Hmm, he really is a rising star! That bracket-shaped fringe, he looks like a true heartthrob!" Lu Xueqing was quite impressed with Xiao Zhankun's reputation.
She found it strange, though. Xiao Zhankun didn't seem to have any dark history, nor was he a disgraced celebrity, so why was he blacklisted?
But it doesn't matter. She only needs to do an offline event in Xidu. Xiao Zhankun's fame is more than enough.
Meanwhile, in a luxurious ward at the First Affiliated Hospital.
Gong Li is currently hospitalized in this ward.
Ever since Lin Yu smashed a bottle over her head, she has been experiencing frequent dizziness and has been coming to the hospital often lately.
At that moment, a tall, handsome young man with bracket-shaped bangs sat beside her, looking utterly dejected.
"Sister, you have to help me this time, no matter what. Now that I've been blacklisted, all the advertisers are suing me, and the companies I signed with are demanding compensation for breach of contract. I'm really going bankrupt!"
Xiao Zhankun said with a mournful face.
Actually, he and Gong Li are indeed related, though somewhat distantly, but within the fifth degree of kinship.
When Xiao Zhankun first started out, Gong Li helped him through He Wu, which can be considered as Gong Li's support.
With the help of Gong Li, Xiao Zhankun, who has been in the industry for two years, has won several good leading roles in TV dramas and is now at the peak of his popularity.
