Chapter 279: Buying and selling cannot be done with kindness and righteousness
Chapter 279: Buying and selling cannot be done with kindness and righteousness
Huang Shengyi is here.
She left on foot and immediately contacted her parents to tell them the good news.
In recent months, Huang Shengyi has been upset and depressed. Her parents are also feeling bad and regret letting their daughter enter the entertainment industry.
If beautiful girls have neither resources nor money, they will inevitably encounter all kinds of troubles when trying to make their way in the entertainment industry. Many times, it only seems glamorous.
Upon learning that his beloved daughter was about to switch to work for Fan Wumian, Huang's father said in surprise:
"This company seems pretty good. I know the new boss. He's the one who found Emperor Qianlong's shroud and sold it for over 80 million. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Why would he help you for no reason? Does he want to date you? You've graduated from college in a blink of an eye. You can consider getting married."
".It seems that you are really satisfied with my new boss. You actually advised me to consider these things?"
"I just think that if you have someone to help you, your future will be much easier. Besides, that guy is not only amazing, but also very lucky."
Huang's father is just a university professor, and he often feels frustrated and blames himself for not being able to help his daughter. When he first heard that Fan Wumian had poached him, he immediately thought that he was a good potential son-in-law.
Due to the news about Qianlong Sutra Quilt, jadeite raw stone, dragon veins, etc., many middle-aged and elderly people who don’t care about the entertainment industry have been deeply impressed by Fan Wumian.
Huang Shengyi felt the cold wind and said self-deprecatingly:
"Who wouldn't want to be his girlfriend? When we met just now, he only called me "senior sister" and I'm three years older than him. Don't dream about it, he's a big shot and a big boss now, and all the beautiful women in the entertainment industry are lining up to chase him."
Huang's father then told:
"I mean, if there's a chance, I definitely wouldn't object. Your mother and I are worried about you going out on your own without anyone to take care of you."
It’s not that her father is being sentimental.
The main purpose is to have a precious daughter. When she sees a boy of the same age being so nice to her daughter for no reason, she will inevitably consider other places.
No matter from which angle you look at it, Fan Wumian, who was just named "the country's number one golden bachelor" by the media last month, is an excellent candidate for son-in-law, so he can't wait to express his position, hoping that his daughter will seize the opportunity.
Huang Shengyi said speechlessly:
"Don't worry about this kind of thing. Boss Xiao Fan has a very good reputation in the industry. It should be much more comfortable to switch to work under him."
The trouble that had been bothering her for a long time was easily solved by a phone call from Fan Wumian.
In addition to being a top superstar, Huang Shengyi is also a billionaire with a net worth of over one billion. Of course, she is very interested in Fan Wumian. Who doesn't want to find a man who is safe and trustworthy?
It's a pity that from their interactions just now, it seems that he didn't intend to take advantage of her. If the person who was trying to repay a favor was Fan Wumian, she wouldn't actually resist. Instead, she would feel that she was taking advantage.
The cold wind was blowing and I was shivering.
At this moment, she felt as if the sky was high and the sea was vast enough for birds to fly freely, and the long-lost feeling of relaxation returned.
When Huang Shengyi was standing by the lake admiring the scenery, an old man who was taking a walk was so fascinated by her profile that he accidentally hit his forehead against a willow tree and screamed in pain, "Ouch! Ouch!"
Fan Wumian really had no other thoughts.
It's just signing a very cost-effective actor, saving even the signing fee, and opening up for business, which is equivalent to buying a high-traffic actress at a low price.
He called Zhuang Muxi and learned that she had a runny nose and planned to take some cold medicine and go to bed early tonight.
I heard that she was not feeling well, so I decided to give her a day off tomorrow.
It's just right to wait for a snowy day, the pictures taken will be more impressive.
With Stephen Chow's nod and a nod, the transfer of Huang Shengyi's remaining contract was completed in just one day.
Fan Wumian only offered a symbolic buyout fee of 80 Hong Kong dollars.
Huang Shengyi was contacted on the same day and a supplementary contract was signed again, agreeing to increase her share ratio to 35%. The remaining contract would expire in another 6 years.
Ji Qiao, who was in charge of public relations, contacted various media outlets that evening and rented a venue to hold an open press conference.
Huang Shengyi attended the event in a gorgeous dress, wearing a high-end custom-made long dress worth more than 20,000 yuan.
The skirt sponsored by the brand had to be returned after wearing, but this small detail was enough for the girl to see that Fan Wumian did indeed value the cooperation with her.
It made her feel that she had someone to rely on, like a real big star. She stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself again and again, and found that her makeup and hairstyle were particularly suitable.
While lamenting what life was like in the past, Huang Shengyi asked Ji Qiao, "Sister Qiao, is Boss Fan coming tonight?"
Ji Qiao knew that Fan Wumian went to the hot springs, so she helped to find an excuse and explained:
"The boss has been filming recently, so it would be better if he didn't come, so as to avoid too much attention from the outside world. When you answer the reporter's questions later, remember to think them over in your head a few times and think them through before you speak."
"Everyone knows that Mr. Fan is working with Mr. Xing and has invested more than 200 million to build a mansion in Hong Kong City. It makes sense for you to switch to our side."
"There are some details in the scene that need attention. As the old saying goes, even if the deal fails, the friendship remains. When asked about the past few months, you should thank Master Xing for your training, otherwise it will be difficult for you to survive in the circle in the future."
Huang Shengyi nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "I remember it."
Starting from the morning, as soon as Ji Qiao received the news, he began to do background checking on Huang Shengyi.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders around, she asked quietly, "There is news from the outside world that you got support from other companies and found a new employer before you decided to break up with Stephen Chow?"
".In fact, it was my colleagues on the set who first broke the news that I didn't get along with Stephen Chow, and then many companies approached me and wanted to poach me."
Huang Shengyi hesitated and gritted her teeth before saying:
"But some people are different from Mr. Fan and are more complicated, so I didn't agree to anything because I was worried that I would fall into another pit just after I climbed out of the fire pit."
Ji Qiao looked at Huang Shengyi, probably guessed something, and said:
"Don't mention the fire pit or anything like that. Explain it according to the manuscript I gave you. Putting aside other things, Mr. Fan is a pretty good person. He treats his employees very kindly. I got a bonus of 70,000 yuan in the first half of the year without knowing it."
"There are also things about men and women. They never let other artists show up in public, go out to discuss business or attend dinner parties."
"In other companies, it's often the boss who's interested in his artists, but in our company, it's the other way around. Several newcomers try to get close to Mr. Fan whenever they get a chance. Even I can see that they want to be the boss' wife. No wonder the Hong Kong media calls Mr. Fan a 'girl killer'. You better be careful, he's very charming."
Huang Shengyi laughed in silence and said:
"He is my junior. I dare not think about him. I have already offended many people. I can't let his fans hate me anymore. Many actresses in the circle have a crush on Mr. Fan."
Ji Qiao just gave a reminder, worried that something might happen again and she would need to take the trouble to help settle it.
The time came soon.
The official general manager of Bandit King Media is named Tang Hong, who used to be a senior executive at Huaying Group.
Manager Tang Hong came out tonight and told reporters that Huang Shengyi's contract has been transferred to Bandit King Media, and the previous misunderstanding has been resolved, and she will be arranged to return to work soon.
Huang Shengyi expressed her apologies, mentioning that she had implicated Stephen Chow and caused everyone to misunderstand him. She thanked him for his support and help, and at the same time apologized for wasting public resources. Her attitude seemed particularly serious and sincere.
The flash lights on the scene kept flashing.
A reporter waited for her to finish her speech and asked impatiently, "Why did you choose to switch to Bandit King Media? You just mentioned misunderstanding Stephen Chow. Can you explain it in detail?"
Huang Shengyi didn't want to offend anyone anymore, so she just took the microphone and said:
"I was under a lot of work pressure at the time, and I was having some emotional problems. I was also taking medication for depression and insomnia, and I was in a very abnormal state. Some of my inappropriate remarks caused misunderstandings among people."
"There is also the matter of transferring to Bandit King Media. It is mainly because some works require cooperation and need to be kept confidential for the time being."
----------
Liu Shishi received the news in advance.
When I learned that the company had signed Huang Shengyi, I thought it was so amazing.
Although the two parties were not on the same level of fame, Liu Shishi was still busy filming everywhere to make herself familiar with the audience, slowly accumulating popularity and honing her acting skills, and she never thought of becoming the heroine.
The company had a very clear positioning for her, Yang Mi and others. It had been agreed in advance that they would first train for two years and then tailor some film and television dramas for them.
Fan Wumian drew the cakes for them personally. Even if they couldn't eat them for a while, just looking at them was satisfying.
The day of the press conference.
Liu Shishi had just finished her work on the set when Fan Wumian found her and told her:
"I wrote a script called City Hunter. It tells the story of a rich kid whose parents are murdered and who fights back for revenge. You will play the second female lead, the heroine's sister. Hurry up and prepare. The filming will start after the Spring Festival."
Liu Shishi blinked.
She still had some baby fat, and asked obediently:
"Did you sign Miss Huang just because of this TV series?"
"About the same. I feel like she's more suitable for the female lead. If you perform well, she should be quite good. I see you already have quite a few fans online. They'll join your forum. Remember to eat less and lose some weight recently. A thinner face will make you look more delicate on camera. But you also need to pay attention to nutrition. Exercise is more effective than dieting."
Fan Wumian originally thought about acting in this TV series himself, but there were also scripts for "My Love from the Star" and "Detective Chinatown 3" waiting in line.
So they decided to find a male actor from outside to act with Huang Shengyi in this Korean drama version of "City Hunter".
Thinking of her best friend, Liu Shishi asked curiously:
"Yang Mi finished filming this drama ahead of schedule. Will she also join the new crew?"
"Don't worry, I will assign her a similar role. There are many projects coming up, so I will prioritize internal work. If that doesn't work, I will look for someone from outside."
Fan Wumian handed her a piece of sugar cane, rubbed his cheek and said:
"I haven't eaten it yet, you try it."
Liu Shishi took the sugar cane and said coquettishly: "It makes me lose weight. White sugar is squeezed from sugar cane, which makes you fat very easily."
"It's okay, just replenish your blood sugar so you can have more energy when losing weight."
