Chapter 88: Wen Jia, the top artist of Xingyao Entertainment
Qian Muchue blushed and her heart beat fast because of Grandma Qian's inducing operation, and she didn't dare to look up at Gong Chen.
"Grandma, Yaya is still young, and Gong Chen and I are very busy with work. Let's talk about this later." Qian Muchue used a one-word formula to push.
Grandma Qian felt that Qian Muchue was just being perfunctory with her. In her opinion, Gong Chen could get off work on time in most cases and was rarely on business trips. When Qian Muchue was not around, Gong Chen took care of Qian Xiaoya without any hesitation. However, Qian Muchue was on a business trip for two or three months this time, and Grandma Qian was a little worried that Gong Chen would have any objections in the long run.
Grandma Qian certainly hopes that Qian Muchue will have a smooth career, but she is also afraid that she will devote herself to work and neglect her family.
"Grandma, Mu Xue is still young, and work is important. Once her job is stable, we can plan to have a younger sister or brother for Yaya."
Gong Chen saw Grandma Qian's worry and said with a smile that although he also hoped to have another baby with Qian Muchue, he hoped that it would be when Qian Muchue was ready and did not want her to feel pressured.
"Okay, as long as you have a plan." Seeing her grandson-in-law defending her granddaughter, Grandma Qian was very pleased and said with a smile.
After hearing what Gong Chen said, Qian Muchue felt at ease and couldn't help but wonder if Gong Chen also wanted to have another baby.
"Yaya wants a younger sister and a younger brother." Qian Xiaoya, who didn't quite understand what younger brothers and sisters meant, followed the adults' words and joined in the fun.
This made Grandma Qian laugh happily.
"Oh, my dear grandson, you are so smart. Ask your mother and father to give you a younger brother or sister as soon as possible." Grandma Qian joked with a smile.
"Do you know what younger brothers and sisters are?" Qian Muchue also teased her with a smile.
"I don't know." Qian Xiaoya answered confidently.
Qian Xiaoya's words made everyone laugh again.
After lunch, Gong Chen went to the company. Yesterday and today were both working days. Yesterday he went to pick up Qian Muchue, so many things were postponed to today.
In the afternoon, Qian Muxue played with Qian Xiaoya for a while. She left for Xinrui only after the little girl fell asleep.
Taking into consideration that Qian Muchue had worked hard on filming, Xi Fei asked her to have a good rest today and not come to the company. However, Qian Muchue was not just an artist after all, but also one of the new shareholders, so she decided to go to the company in the afternoon to check the situation.
When Qian Muchue arrived, Huang Qingqing was already waiting for her downstairs of the Xinrui Entertainment office building. Huang Qingqing was originally going to pick her up, but Qian Muchue considered that Huang Qingqing had been traveling all the way today and was very tired, so she asked her to go directly to the company.
When they arrived at the destination, Huang Qingqing was very surprised. She didn't expect Qian Muchue's agency to be in such a remote area. This was completely inconsistent with her identity as the wife of the president of Qichen Film and Television. However, Huang Qingqing was simply surprised and didn't think too much about it. As a professional artist assistant, she was very clear about her job responsibilities.
Qian Muchue had already told Xi Fei about Qiao Yan's matter. Originally, Xi Fei had already found a new assistant for her, but when Xi Fei heard Qian Muchue say that she had already found an assistant herself, he had no objection.
However, when Xi Fei saw that the assistant was Huang Qingqing, she was still a little surprised. Before she left Xingyao Entertainment, the artists under her had collaborated with Huang Qingqing's artists at the time. Although Huang Qingqing was just an artist assistant, she was very capable and did a lot of the work of an agent.
Xi Fei had contact with Huang Qingqing because of her work with artists, so she was surprised to see Huang Qingqing now. Huang Qingqing's previous company was Qichen Film and Television, and the artists she was in charge of were also pretty good, with great career prospects. She didn't expect that she would now be Qian Muchue's assistant.
Although it was strange, Xi Fei did not ask. She knew the limits. Qian Muchue also said that Huang Qingqing's salary would not go through the company, which meant that Huang Qingqing was specifically responsible for Qian Muchue's affairs and had nothing to do with Xinrui Entertainment.
Qian Muchue had been away for two and a half months, and Xinrui Entertainment had undergone great changes. First of all, there were more people. In addition to the staff, many artists were also signed during this period, but they were all newcomers.
"These are all newly signed artists of our company. Some of them have sparked some interest online, and some are pure amateurs. They all have good overall qualities." Xi Fei said to Qian Muchue, pointing to several girls who were practicing dancing in the dance studio.
Qian Muchue looked over and saw that they were all young girls around twenty years old, young and energetic, and were seriously learning to dance with their dance teacher.
"The other dance studio is where some young boys signed by the company are training. Let me take you to have a look." Xi Fei said as he took Qian Muchue to another dance studio.
After seeing these newcomers, Qian Muchue didn't have any thoughts. It was basically the same as the original owner's memory. Xinrui Entertainment signed some newcomers in the early days.
"Sister Xi, what arrangements does the company have for these newcomers?" Qian Muchue asked.
"There are two options at the moment. For those with singing and dancing skills, the company plans to arrange for them to participate in talent shows. This is currently the fastest way for newcomers to gain fans. The other option is to pursue acting. Initially, we can only take them on film crews, which will slow their development. There's no other way around this, as they're all newcomers."
Xi Fei did not hide anything and told Qian Muchue all the company's plans. These were similar to what Qian Muchue knew. The original owner had taken the second path before, running around for announcements on various crews and playing small roles.
"If the company had first-line artists in charge, it would develop much faster." Qian Muchue said lightly.
Hearing Qian Muchue's words, Xi Fei laughed. For a new company with no background to want to sign a first-line artist is simply a dream.
"Having said that, how can first-line artists look down on new talents? Even if they want to leave their old company, they will jump to a better company or set up their own studio." Xi Fei said helplessly.
"It's not impossible. Have you and Wenjia had any contact before?" Qian Muchue asked.
Wen Jia is an artist of Xingyao Entertainment, and Xi Fei used to be an agent at Xingyao Entertainment. Although the two are in the same company, they may not have had any contact.
"Huh?" Xi Fei looked at Qian Muchue in surprise.
Wen Jia is the top artist of Xingyao Entertainment. Her agent Wei Lai is not only the gold medal agent of Xingyao Entertainment, but also very powerful in the agent circle.
"I don't have any friendship with her. Wen Jia is the cash cow of Xingyao Entertainment. Her agent is Wei Lai. It's impossible for her to leave Xingyao Entertainment." Xi Fei stated the truth.
Although she herself does not like the way Xingyao Entertainment does things, as Xingyao Entertainment's top artist Wen Jia enjoys the best treatment of Xingyao Entertainment and will not leave easily. To put it another way, even if she leaves, she will not choose Xinrui Entertainment again.
"That was true in the past, but it may not be the case in the future, because her agent is Wei Lai." Qian Muchue said.
"What do you mean?" Xi Fei asked.
"In the past two years, Wen Jia's reputation has declined significantly, and she is facing an important period of transformation. However, her agent Wei Lai will not make plans for her. Transformation is not that easy. While Wen Jia is still popular, Wei Lai will only squeeze out all of Wen Jia's value and train new people to replace her." Qian Muchue's tone was firm.
"Did you get any inside information?" Xi Fei asked in surprise.
She has always been following the trends of celebrities in the entertainment industry. How come she didn't know anything about such a big thing?
"No, you can compare Wenjia's current situation with Wei Lai's previous artist Song Yao. So, I suggest that Sister Xi, you can first find out when Wenjia's contract expires, and you can also contact her privately." Qian Muchue suggested.
