PNB Chapter 218 Are you teasing me on purpose?!
Chapter 218 Are you teasing me on purpose?!
"Have you finished chatting?"
Sister Meng leaned against the wall and suddenly spoke, pulling Qin Xi out of her previous mood.
"Sister Meng? You have been guarding the door this whole time?"
Sister Meng nodded and sighed, "After all, it's not a glorious thing, so it's better not to be watched by strangers and spread rumors."
Qin Xi smiled helplessly, "There are no secrets in the entertainment industry, let alone in an entertainment company. The desire to gossip can't be stopped. It's just a matter of time. I'm afraid they will add fuel to the fire."
Sister Meng looked at Qin Xi and couldn't help but wonder, "We saw that you were in a bad mood. Just now in the room, you were angrily scolding Ai Fei, and you looked so aggressive and unstoppable. I thought you would be very happy."
Qin Xi looked back and said, "What about you, Sister Meng? Are you happy to have Ai Fei's true face exposed?"
Sister Meng was stunned by the question. She thought for a long time before she let out a long sigh.
"I'm probably more surprised. To be honest, Ai Fei has been with me for a few years, and I've spent much more time communicating and spending time with her than you have. I've always thought she was both sensible and shy, and I was afraid that she would suffer because she was too naive and didn't know how to express herself. Now that I think about it, being weak is just her protective color. I didn't see through her true thoughts at all..."
Sister Meng said with a guilty look on her face.
"Now that I think about it, there were signs that Ai Fei was trying to trick me to deal with you, but I didn't think too deeply about it at the time. If you weren't vigilant enough this time, and if Lu Chuan and Fu Yao were not so helpful, I'm afraid you would have capsized in the ditch. As your major agent and partner in the studio... Oh, Xiaoxi, I will definitely learn from this!"
Qin Xi shook her head. "There are only thieves who have been around for a thousand years, but there is no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand years. Sister Meng, you don't have to blame yourself. It's impossible for a person to be perfect in everything. Besides, you don't have enough time to worry about my studio, so how can you have time to think about Ai Fei's thoughts?"
"Say, Ai Fei, her acting skills are really good, but she uses them for evil purposes. She is used to a good life and is too competitive. She wants to compete with you in everything, but she doesn't know who can match you in the entertainment industry today? If she had focused on herself and practiced vertically, she might have been successful a long time ago."
Qin Xi shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Sister Meng, you...really know Wang Po's tactics very well. As for Ai Fei, she is just confused by the situation. I thought that I would feel very happy watching her cry in front of me. But now, haha...to be honest, I feel more regretful..."
"Regret your lost friendship?"
Qin Xi recalled the past and sighed.
"I still remember when Ai Fei knocked on my door cautiously and asked me to discuss whether she should play Xiao Zhao or Zhu'er in the new Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber. At that time, she said that she was willing to make herself ugly for the role, just hoping to have a chance to break through herself. Her eyes were sparkling at that time, and although she was immature, she could not hide her radiance. Perhaps what I regret is that simple and sincere girl who was full of sincere love for acting..."
"Sister Meng, do you think the entertainment industry is really that scary? In just two or three years, people can be changed beyond recognition? The true feelings and friendships of the past have changed without anyone noticing. For their own benefit, they can stab their best friends without hesitation. This time it was Ai Fei, who will it be next time?"
Qin Xi even worried and feared that one day she would become like this. In her previous life, before she got married, she was a complete naive person when things were going well. After she was abandoned, she was always a marginal figure in the circle. She had no chance to make a choice.
But in this life, Qin Xi is a person standing at the forefront of the storm. How should he choose between absolute interests and years of friendship? Qin Xi... dare not say, dare not think...
"You...Did the Ai Fei incident hit you so hard? Have you started to think about human nature and bottom line?"
Sister Meng was speechless, but couldn't help laughing. It is said that what actors fight for in the end is their background and connotation. Now it seems that Qin Xi is definitely far ahead in this regard. He can think so deeply about a back-stabbing. His awareness is definitely different from that of ordinary people!
"My little ancestor, if you have time to worry about nothing, why don't you calm down and be calm? There are so many things that need to be done. I think you have too much free time recently, so you have time to think about nonsense!"
Qin Xi was stunned. "What's the matter?"
Sister Meng rolled her eyes at Qin Xi, "What else? Use your smart brain. I just set up your studio a few days ago, and you staged this. Do you know how many people have resigned? Let me tell you, apart from us old hands, there are only a few staunch ones who have not left! I have to recruit people again. Don't you want to tire me to death?!"
Qin Xi felt guilty for a second. She had not been a manager for so many years that she actually forgot about this matter!
"Sister Meng, this matter... a blessing in disguise! Those who left were fence-sitters who changed their minds with the wind. Such employees, even if they stayed, might become the second Ai Fei. It's not a pity! But... I have to work hard for you, Sister Meng~"
Qin Xi noticed that Sister Meng looked unhappy, so she quickly expressed her feelings generously.
"Don't be in a hurry this time, let's pick carefully..."
Sister Meng sneered, "Oh, you're not in a hurry yet? You can't be in a hurry any longer!"
"Ah?!" Qin Xi expressed confusion.
"The Biography of Yan Qing has been moved up!"
"What?!"
Sister Meng explained helplessly, "Originally, D TV and H TV jointly bought the copyright of [The Legend of Yan Qing]. It's a rare opportunity that the old big brother and the rising star joined hands for the first time, just for you! Originally, [The Legend of Yan Qing] was scheduled for the Spring Festival, but the tax investigation happened. These two TV stations were scared. If something really happened to you, the big money they spent would be wasted..."
"Plus, the country is clearly going to strike hard this time to rectify the unhealthy trends in the domestic entertainment economy. The industry is already in a state of panic, who knows who will be the next target of the fire? In addition, you were officially praised this time, which brought a lot of positive attention. The two satellite TV stations hit it off and can't wait any longer. They want to quickly launch "The Legend of Yan Qing". Look, the official announcement will be made tomorrow, and it will be broadcast directly next week!"
Qin Xi: “…”
So many things happened in between that it feels like it took a century to finish filming [The Biography of Yan Qing]! (Just finished filming chapter 88~)
The work that Qin Xi had been looking forward to the most in her life was finally, finally, finally going to be broadcast! Qin Xi was overjoyed.
Seeing Qin Xi's silly excited look, Sister Meng couldn't help but be sarcastic.
"If I were you, I wouldn't be so happy~ You can't even get a promotion team together right now! How can I recruit people in such a short time? You have to take the blame yourself. Go find Mr. Song tomorrow and cry or beg him to lend me the people!"
Qin Xi: “…”
The studio she opened has no presence, so she still has to cling to Mr. Song's thighs~
"However, I still want to praise you for one thing. You have a good eye for people. You chose the makeup artist Yin Yiren yourself. Given her current market situation, she didn't even ask for a contract termination when public opinion was most unfavorable to you. Actions speak volumes about a person's character. You have to thank her. If it weren't for her, wouldn't you have to run publicity campaigns all the time?"
Qin Xi secretly thought that Sister Meng was exaggerating. It was hard to find a makeup artist anywhere. But a makeup artist as talented and loyal as Yin Yiren was hard to find even with a lantern.
Qin Xi sighed, hey, God still loves her, there is true love in the world, she was right about him!
After Sister Meng arranged a lot of work for Qin Xi, she finally packed up and sent her home. Qin Xi, who hadn't worked for a long time, was a little uncomfortable for a while. Thinking about her worries, she slowly walked to the door of her house, and when she looked up, she was startled.
"You...what are you doing?"
Gu Chenxing was seen sitting at the door of Qin Xi's house pitifully like a puppy, waiting for who knows how long.
When Gu Chenxing saw Qin Xi, he immediately jumped up, but probably because he had been in that position for too long, his legs were numb and he failed to jump up.
Gu Chenxing's eyes were filled with sparks, his anger was maxed out, his handsome face was tightly held together, and he was accusing furiously.
"Qin Xi, you are teasing me on purpose, right?!"
