Some are happy, some are sad.
Several artists, having heard the news, privately celebrated.
This kind of small workshop not only lacks resources, but the boss is also a troublemaker who holds meetings every few days, belittling the workers and making them feel worthless.
As one of the artists signed by the company, Shi Leyao, who debuted as a trainee, changed her mobile phone ringtone to "Good Days".
Today was another day with no scheduled activities, just clocking in at the company.
She couldn't stop humming a song; today is a good day.
Breakfast consisted of an egg and a cup of soy milk.
She was drinking as she walked towards the elevator when she saw the elevator doors about to close. She jogged over and said, "Excuse me, could you wait a moment?"
The elevator doors reopened.
16 floors.
It's the floor where several departments of the company are located.
Shi Leyao stretched out her finger and pressed the number fifteen.
The fifteenth floor is where the company trains its artists.
Even when I'm not working, I still have to take classes with a teacher at the company. Yesterday it was a physical training class, and today it's an acting class.
Using the elevator mirror as a mirror, she sipped her soy milk and discreetly observed the group of people behind her: two men and a woman. The men were burly, wearing black suits and sunglasses; they appeared to be bodyguards.
The woman they were protecting behind them wore a white Chanel-style suit, with long, straight, beautiful legs and a near-perfect figure.
The black mask covered most of her face, but it couldn't hide the fact that she was a great beauty.
Her eye shape is absolutely gorgeous.
She has full, almond-shaped eyes, but the corners of her eyes are slightly rounded and blunt, adding a touch of sweetness and cuteness to her sexy and charming appearance.
Their lousy company doesn't have any big names. She knows a few famous people, but none of them can compare to the person in front of her.
Could it be that...
Where did the new boss recruit these big names?
She went through the list of first- and second-tier actresses she knew, but couldn't match them up.
She hesitated whether or not to say hello.
What if it really is a top-tier celebrity? Wouldn't it be embarrassing if she didn't recognize her?
As she hesitated, the elevator reached the fifteenth floor.
Soon she had no time to think about the beautiful woman; she should be thinking about how to get through today's acting class.
She arrived half an hour early so that she could go over the homework the teacher had assigned last week several times.
The acting coach the company hired was truly... well, let's just say it wasn't great.
Just like the boss.
He has very little hair and quite a few health problems.
They are good at putting on airs.
His lectures were often cryptic and pretentious, and he had a bad temper; every class he taught was like he'd swallowed a bomb.
If they misspell even one word in their lines, they'll be subjected to a torrent of abuse.
They wished they could concentrate their firepower and blow up the entire building.
When she walked into the room where she usually taught classes, she pushed open the door and was stunned to see the performance teacher browsing through PowerPoint slides and preparing for class.
This...this...isn't this Teacher Tian Shulei, who became a sensation a few years ago because of a political drama, skyrocketed in popularity, was hailed as a veteran actor by netizens, and had many of his performances included in teaching materials?!
It seems he later withdrew from the entertainment industry due to an injury sustained while filming. How did he end up working for their company?
"Teacher Tian... Teacher Tian..."
The man, who was over fifty, had a more upright posture than his peers and a refined demeanor. He spoke gently, "Hmm, why don't you come in?"
"Is Teacher Tian going to give us a lesson?"
He nodded slightly: "From now on, I will be in charge of your acting courses."
Feeling dizzy, Shi Leyao found a seat and sat down.
Why did they suddenly change teachers?
Every artist who came in was just as surprised as she was.
What's even more surprising than the previous teacher is his class. He speaks with humor and wit, and even if their performance doesn't meet his requirements, he doesn't yell at them, but rather points out the details of their problems in great detail.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye. He glanced at the time and told everyone to take a 20-minute break.
Twenty minutes later, just as class was about to continue, there was a rhythmic knocking on the door.
"Please come in."
Dressed in a black and white business suit, with his long hair neatly rolled up, he looked at the somewhat unapproachable woman and said coldly, "Excuse me for disturbing your class. I'll be taking up some of your time. I hope all the artists signed by the company can come upstairs for a meeting."
The heads of all departments have arrived.
The company only replaced a few problematic senior executives; the rest who were willing to stay were basically left alone.
When Shi Leyao arrived at the conference room, she immediately saw the person sitting in the main seat.
A white Chanel-style suit—isn't this the stunning beauty she encountered in the elevator when she arrived?
He sat in the main seat.
They are not artists under the company.
Is he the company's new boss?!
She looks like a goddess descended from the heavens, why doesn't she go into the entertainment industry and dominate the scene?
etc!
This face...
Isn't this Qin Xu's sister?!
She appeared on a variety show for less than two days and quickly climbed to the top of several trending topics, making those beautiful women in the entertainment industry envious and jealous!
I didn't expect her to look even better in person than on camera.
Just now, when Shi Leyao and the others were called up for a meeting, the woman, who was stern and decisive in every word and action, led two people to distribute the prepared documents to the artists present.
I thought it was meeting materials, but when I received them, I found that everyone received their own personal information.
It's all recorded when they joined the company, what minor roles they played, what movies and TV series they acted in, what variety shows they participated in, and what trending topics they appeared on.
What value did they create for the company, and what resources did the company provide for them?
The text also included how much time they had left before their contracts with the company expired.
What does this mean?
