Chapter 298 Turning to the Company Duan Yuanqing's gaze fell on Xia Zhining, and the imposing aura around him instantly vanished without a trace.
He strode forward, his eyes filled with solemnity and sincerity, his tone tinged with a sense of relief: "Expert Xia, thank you so much this time. If you hadn't arrived in time, my voice and my career might have been ruined."
He paused, lowering his voice slightly, "This summer, Entertainment put too much pressure on me regarding the contract renewal issue, and this matter... is probably also related to them."
"Thank you for saving me from a disaster. I performed very well in the audition just now."
Xia Zhining smiled and waved her hand: "No need to be polite. Protecting the safety and rights of citizens is our duty."
She was about to explain the situation to Duan Yuanqing in detail and ask him to go to the police station to cooperate with making a formal statement when her cell phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket.
She looked down and saw a message from her brother, Ji Shuyun:
[Lemon, the first meeting of the elite training program will begin in ten minutes.]
Is something wrong on your end? Do you need your brother to come over?
Xia Zhining glanced at her phone and alarm bells rang in her mind: Oh no! She was so focused on catching the poisoner that she almost forgot about the elite training meeting at 3:30 pm!
Duan Yuanqing was about to speak when he said, "To express my gratitude, I..."
"An officer will contact you to discuss the details later!" Xia Zhining said quickly, turning towards the door as if she were wound up. "I have urgent business to attend to, I have to go now!"
Before she finished speaking, she had already dashed out like a whirlwind, leaving only the sound of her hurried footsteps.
Duan Yuanqing awkwardly put his hand back into his pocket, having only extended it halfway to shake hands.
He stood there, watching Xia Zhining's figure disappear in an instant, feeling both amused and exasperated.
This expert Xia really is something else, coming and going in a flurry.
Duan Yuanqing turned to his assistant and asked thoughtfully, "Did Xia get bullied by the production crew of Jinxia Entertainment when she brought the animals to perform in the short play? It was quite a big deal."
The assistant immediately nodded: "Yes, that's her! She's got a lucky charm vibe. The bigger the 'Journey to the Desert' incident gets, the more popular their short drama 'Desert Time Ark' becomes. It's practically a hit even before it airs."
Duan Yuanqing stared at the empty corridor, a hint of regret in his eyes: "You helped me so much, and I didn't even have a chance to properly thank you..."
His gaze fell on the phone call log, stopping at director He Shunsheng's number.
Got it!
Director He is acquainted with Expert Xia, so he certainly knows how to express his gratitude.
As soon as the call connected, Duan Yuanqing got straight to the point: "Director He, Expert Xia just did me a huge favor, and I want to thank her properly, but I don't know how to do it properly."
He Shunsheng pondered for a moment on the other end of the phone, then laughed heartily, "What a coincidence! Expert Xia is currently setting up a film and television company to connect her animal actors with resources."
"If you really want to thank her, and you have a good project that's suitable for animals to appear on camera, you might as well recommend it to her."
Director He then changed the subject, his tone becoming more serious: "In addition, she is preparing a series of animal-themed crime dramas. The investment is not large, and the crew is also average, but the script is very interesting."
"The police officer character in the movie has a similar vibe to you. If you're interested, I can help you set her up, as a way of repaying a favor. How about it, consider it?"
Director He readily sent over the script for the first five episodes written by He Xi.
