Chapter 260
Wei Ting is a good person. She knows the rules of the entertainment industry very well and knows how to market herself. She can make several "friends" almost every time she shoots a movie. As for how sincere she is, it is unknown.
Jiang Qiao didn't want to have more contact with such a person, but she didn't dislike it either. She just wanted to save face. She smiled and said, "Let's not go. It will probably be late after the dinner. We can make an appointment next time."
This was a tactful refusal, but Wei Ting still smiled and said, "Okay, I'll make an appointment with Sister Xiao Qiao next time.
"Shall we go in together?" Wei Ting asked.
"Okay." Jiang Qiao agreed with a smile, and quietly avoided Wei Ting's hand to help her.
Although her status is higher than Wei Ting, they are about the same age. If some deliberate marketing accounts exaggerate the situation, it would probably seem like she is bullying Wei Ting.
The dinner was held by a top luxury brand for the purpose of developing its business in China. The guests were all celebrities from all walks of life. To put it bluntly, this kind of event is to make friends and expand business.
As soon as Jiang Qiao entered, he saw several actors and stars from the same company, both male and female, all dressed beautifully and eye-catchingly.
"Sister Qiao."
"Sister Xiao Qiao is here."
Several people also saw Jiang Qiao and came over to greet him. Only a little star in a yellow dress leaned against the man sitting on the sofa and acted like a spoiled child. When she saw Jiang Qiao, she glared at him provocatively.
Jiang Qiao pretended not to see it. After responding to the others, he walked to the sofa and politely explained to the man, "Boss, I'm sorry. There was a traffic jam on the road and I'm late."
Tang Hao slowly raised his eyes and scanned the smiling girl standing in front of him from top to bottom. Then he pushed aside the little celebrity in a yellow dress and patted the seat next to him: "Qiao Qiao, come and sit here."
Facing Tang Hao's half-smiley eyes, Jiang Qiao was silent for two seconds, then walked to the other side of the man and sat down.
……………………
This is a clear lack of respect. Jiang Qiao is the only signed artist who dares to give face to the big boss.
Several people looked at each other, no one spoke, for fear of being caught in the crossfire.
After a while, the man spoke lazily, "You all go have fun. Qiao Qiao and I have something to say."
"Mr. Tang..." The little star in the goose yellow dress wanted to act coquettishly, but when she met the man's impatient gaze, she immediately shut up and left obediently.
After everyone left, Tang Hao raised his hand to ask for a glass of wine and sighed: "Okay, don't be unhappy. It's not me who asked Zheng Min to urge you to come. Why are you angry with me?"
Jiang Qiao rejected the pink cocktail handed over by Tang Hao and frowned: "I'm not angry."
"Not angry? Then why are you giving me this fake smile?"
Tang Hao was amused. He had known Jiang Qiao for seven or eight years, from high school to now, so he could tell that Jiang Qiao was in a bad mood tonight.
"Tell me, why are you unhappy? Who offended you?" Tang Hao crossed his legs without any formality and guessed, "Is it because of the negative searches that called you a vase, or is it because someone has snatched your resources again?"
"I told you I would help you, but you refused. Once I help, who would dare to offend you? You can choose any movie script you want."
Tang Hao was sincere. He really wanted to help Jiang Qiao and make Jiang Qiao's career more successful. He didn't want to see anyone using foul language to insult Jiang Qiao.
Jiang Qiao could tell, so she couldn't accept it: "Thank you, you have helped me a lot."
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "If it weren't for you, I would have been scolded and quit the industry a long time ago. How could I make so much money and live such a comfortable life?"
She and Tang Hao were high school classmates, but they had little contact until she graduated from college and signed a job with Tang Hao's company. Only then did she know that Tang Hao's family background was so powerful.
"Thank you, Boss Tang~" Jiang Qiao joked in a nonchalant manner.
The girl looked heartless, and Tang Hao rolled his eyes unhappily: "Whatever you want."
"I won't help you even if you beg me for help." Tang Hao said this, and he regretted it right after he finished speaking. He couldn't bring himself to say something soft and conciliatory.
Just then, a brand manager came over and invited him to chat, so Tang Hao followed him, leaving Jiang Qiao sitting alone on the empty sofa.
But she didn't stay quiet for long, and soon someone came over to talk to her. It was a boy band idol who had become famous recently. He was very handsome, but the makeup on his face was a little thick.
"Sister Qiao Qiao, we are chatting over there, do you want to join us?" The handsome boy in the boy band invited enthusiastically.
There were strangers at the table. Jiang Qiao was about to refuse when someone else did.
"Excuse me, brother. Xiao Qiao and I have an appointment. We want to talk about some skin care tips for girls. Do you want to listen?" The visitor said with a smile.
The boy band members quickly waved their hands and said "No, no" and left in a huff.
Jiang Qiao couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Jin, you scared me."
Jin Ning sat down, lifted her fiery red skirt to the side, and replied casually: "He is too frightened."
She took the untouched pink cocktail in front of Jiang Qiao and took a sip, then said, "These people are just trying to take advantage of your popularity. If you really become a hot topic, you will definitely be the one being scolded."
"That's true." Jiang Qiao nodded in agreement.
She is born with a physique that attracts criticism. Even if she does nothing, she will be on the hot search list and be criticized.
Jin Ning is the editor-in-chief of a well-known fashion magazine. She is a very chic and courageous woman. Jiang Qiao has worked with her many times and they have a sense of mutual respect.
Seeing Jin Ning finish a whole glass of cocktail in one breath, Jiang Qiao asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"Don't mention it." Jin Ning sighed and said, "Did you see the trending searches?"
“…………Really not.” Jiang Qiao said.
She was indeed a little absent-minded these days. She picked up a kitten and spent a lot of time just buying cat supplies and vaccinating it. She had no time or mood to look at her phone.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Qiao asked tentatively: "What happened?"
"I don't know who said that I was going to change jobs and that I stabbed the magazine in the back. It directly made me a hot topic on the search. These days, many people have come to ask me what's going on. It's so annoying." Jin Ning said with a frown.
The corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of irritation, and he looked really angry. Jiang Qiao comforted him, "It's okay, it will be taken down in two days. Marketing accounts like to write nonsense. It's okay as long as the company's top management is not angry."
I don't know which word he heard, but Jin Ning suddenly became excited: "The upper level, our magazine is going to change owners!"
"ah?"
"It was just confirmed two days ago and the contract has been signed. Do you know which company acquired it? It was the Sheng family!"
Seeing that Jiang Qiao was still confused, Jin Ning pointed upwards and whispered, "The Sheng family is the Sheng family in our capital."
