576 Daoist unity
“Nonsense,” Mo Anqi’s lips twitched as she listened to Tao cen’s explanation of tonight’s conflict. She and Jiang se had a special interest in Amadeus’s manuscript. I just received news that Song Yi invited the media to dinner tonight. She even gave out huge red packets to the media reporters. She’s probably thinking of a way to save Tao cen’s face.
However, mo Anqi felt that Tao cen’s words in the interview were exceptionally ironic. Tao cen had harbored ill intentions back then, but now, he wanted to turn the situation around by bringing Jiang se along.
Jiang se was not very interested in Tao cen’s next move. On the other hand, the assistant felt a little regretful.
!!
it’s a pity that it’s Amadeus’s manuscript. Sese spent five million Yuan to get it, and now I’m giving it to her.
She knew that Jiang se really liked the manuscript. She had already set her eyes on it before the auction. However, due to Tao cen’s interference, she did not manage to get the manuscript in the end.
Jiang se did not produce a lot of films. After she became famous, Xia Chaoqun cherished her reputation very much. He was very cautious when it came to taking on roles. He picked through scripts again and again. If there was no good opportunity, he would rather not take on any more.
As a result, although her current reputation was well known, her salary had increased, and her fame was comparable to Tao cen’s, her annual income was much less than Tao cen’s.
This five million Yuan was already equivalent to all the remuneration she could get from endorsing the sports car of Elysees. However, it was too cheap for Tao cen.
“No need to feel pity.” Jiang se grabbed her hair that had just been dried.
“It might not be long before Tao cen returns the ‘five million’ back to us.”
The public was watching, and the ‘gift’ she gave back might even be more valuable than Adeus ‘manuscript.
The moment Jiang se finished speaking, Xia Chaoqun picked up the remote control and turned off the television. He turned around.
“Tao cen has found Steinway and wants to buy the piano that you played tonight.”
Xia Chaoqun’s words indirectly confirmed Jiang SE’s guess. However, Jiang se did not expect Tao cen to use this method to get closer to Steinway even at this stage. He was really good at making use of this opportunity.
she got a hold of Chapman’s contact information. She said that she was buying this piano for you, so it’s very likely that she’ll be able to get it.
She was indeed very smart and knew how to make use of the disadvantage to turn the tables. Tonight, she was in a situation that was not conducive to her, but not only did she not admit defeat and hide, but she also actively thought of a way.
She could even use this incident to establish a new relationship with Chapman. Even Jiang se was rather impressed by her.
“However,”
As Xia Chaoqun spoke up to this point, he crossed his legs and asked, ”
“Did Mr. Luo send you a message tonight?”
After the incident, the situation became serious. Under the watchful eyes of the public, two female stars from century Galaxy fought over a musical score manuscript in public. They raised the price and caused the situation to go out of control. The bystanders were helpless. Therefore, someone had informed century Galaxy, the management company of both parties, at the time. To calm the situation, Luo Yin directly sent a message to Jiang se.
“Yes, I am.”
Jiang se nodded. Luo Yin’s method of dealing with the situation back then was the same as what many people had expected. He told her not to fight with Tao cen for the time being and to avoid a momentary conflict. However, everyone knew what Jiang se did next.
Not only did she not listen to Luo Yin’s arrangements, but she also embarrassed Tao cen in front of everyone.
Under Xia Chaoqun’s gaze, Jiang se nodded with a calm expression. The atmosphere in the hall was rather awkward.
Mo Anqi recalled Xia Chaoqun’s frown at the dinner party. She was afraid that Xia Chaoqun would be angry, so she sneaked a glance at Jiang SE’s expression and then at Xia Chaoqun’s.
However, Xia Chaoqun didn’t seem to be angry. Instead, he had a faint smile on his face.
“Alright, then. The company’s decision should be out soon.”
Not only did Jiang se embarrass Tao cen, but she had also embarrassed Luo Yin. When she said that, mo Anqi found it strange that Jiang se actually nodded in agreement, indicating that she had accepted the outcome.
Xia Chaoqun had just finished speaking, and before he could continue, Zhang Chi’s phone, which had been sitting in the hall all this while, started vibrating.
The vibration sound was particularly eye-catching in the quiet room. Everyone’s eyes fell on Zhang Chi. He made a gesture with embarrassment and picked up the phone.
The person on the other end of the line was obviously of extraordinary status because Zhang Chi stood up immediately. Even though the person he was talking to was not in front of him, he still showed a respectful expression. After saying a few words, he covered the receiver and looked at Xia Chaoqun.
“Sister Xia, it’s a call from Mr. Luo, Yingluo.”
He glanced at Jiang se as he spoke. His expression was a little awkward.
It was easy to imagine how furious Luo Yin was at this moment. With such news coming out of two of his top female stars, no matter who won or lost, it would not be good for the company.
Xia Chaoqun picked up the phone and walked to the side to answer. About 15 minutes later, when she returned, the call had already been cut off. She conveyed Luo Yin’s message, ”
“The results of the processing are out.”
The consequences of this incident were not small, and the company had to step in to clean up the mess. Hence, the results came much faster than Xia Chaoqun had imagined.
Jiang se sat up straight and listened to Xia Chaoqun.
This time, she was no longer as flamboyant as she had been at the banquet. On the contrary, she was much more obedient. Xia Chaoqun couldn’t help but want to laugh at her.
“First of all, you can’t say anything about this matter.”
The company wanted to protect Tao cen. There was no doubt about that. After all, Tao cen was the most profitable female star in the Galaxy. The company should suppress this matter for her.
If Jiang se refused to let it go and the two of them fell out, the media would benefit and the netizens and audience would treat them as an after-meal joke. It would be a scandal for both of them. It would not be worth it.
Jiang se understood his reasoning. She nodded. Xia Chaoqun continued, ”
secondly, Mr. Luo’s intention is for you to put aside all other work for the time being after you’re done filming ‘fate’ and the advertisement endorsement for Elysees.
In other words, Jiang se was being treated coldly by the company.
okay, ” Jiang se replied. She had already expected this outcome, so she did not object.
If it were any other disobedient artistes, the company might have stopped their work from being released. However, this would not work on Jiang se.
the salvation of God ” was invested in by a top foreign film company, and the director was Chesare. No matter how powerful Luo Yin of century Galaxy was, he couldn’t stop such a work from being born.
Since there was no way to stop Jiang SE’s movie from screening, the company’s only solution was to stop her from showing her face in public.
“This shouldn’t be a long time.”
After all, the company only wanted Jiang se to reflect on her actions. They did not intend to destroy a promising actress like her.
The period of reflection could be as short as a few months, and as long as half a year to a year. To Jiang se, it was nothing. When she saw mo Anqi’s slightly depressed expression, she even asked, ”
“What else?”
The assistants looked helpless, but Xia Chaoqun laughed.
also, Huo Zhiming’s ‘suspect’ originally had Tao cen as the female lead. Now, the company wants you to take on the role of ‘Zhong Qi’.
She spread her hands. you can’t refuse.
Even if Xia Chaoqun did not explain, Jiang se would probably understand the reasoning behind it.
There were two reasons for Luo Yin’s arrangement.
Firstly, she wanted to appease Tao cen’s anger after she had suffered a loss. In ” suspect, ” Tao cen was the main lead actor while Jiang se played a supporting role. This was to appease Tao cen’s dissatisfaction.
Coincidentally, Yuan Tao cen had suffered a loss at tonight’s charity banquet. At the same time, it was also to appease the fans who were dissatisfied with Tao cen’s status being ‘threatened’ by Jiang se. It could be considered the company’s stance.
Secondly, after tonight’s ruckus, everyone knew that the two Galaxy Stars, Tao cen and Jiang se, might not be as harmonious as they appeared to be on the surface. They were probably fighting each other in private.
However, as long as the media didn’t capture the two of them saying bad things, the company would probably think that the two of them were ‘like-minded’ sisters.
Jiang se already had a fiancé, and the PEI family had an extraordinary status. As such, after many movies were completed, Jiang se would have fewer opportunities to work with many male stars to create hype.
This was a good opportunity for both parties to raise the topic of discussion. It was a good thing for both Tao cen and the film.
It was true that the company had plans to suppress Jiang se. however, you should have thought of the consequences after you ignored Mr. Luo’s news.
The company preferred obedient puppets. Xia Chaoqun did not say this out loud.
Jiang SE’s habit had always been to focus on one show she took on. She did not like to take on another show at the same time. However, the company clearly did not give her any other choice.
The few assistants were still a little unhappy. Xia Chaoqun said, ”
fortunately, you didn’t have the image of ‘Shen xueran’ in ‘suspect’. This has satisfied your initial plan.
Xia Chaoqun was still in a good mood. She had finally gotten a satisfactory result from her action of trapping ‘Shen xuanran’ in ‘suspect’.
Although the process was rather complicated, it did not go against Jiang SE’s initial wishes.
“I’ll prepare a new script after shooting” immortal encounter.””
Xia Chaoqun nodded after Jiang se said that. When she was done with her business, she looked down at the time. Just as she was about to get up and leave, she did not expect someone to rush toward her.
Instinctively, she was about to raise her leg to kick her, but when she looked up and saw that it was Jiang se, she lowered her leg again. Just as she was about to get up and Dodge, it was already too late.
Jiang se sat on the sofa’s armrest and wrapped her arms around her neck.
Xia Chaoqun wasn’t the only one who was shocked by his actions. Even mo Anqi and the others were dumbfounded at the sight.
Xia Chaoqun had never liked to get close to others. She was too cold and too rational. In the eyes of many people, although she was a very capable person, she did not give off the feeling of being too heartless. She lacked the seven emotions and six sensory pleasures that most ordinary people had.
Most of the people in the company and around her were afraid of her, and few were close to her.
Even after working with Tao cen for several years, the two of them had only maintained a faint cooperative relationship.
She was neither too close nor too far away from everyone. Even her assistant, Zhang Chi, who had been by her side for many years, had never seen anyone so close to her.
Even though Xia Chaoqun rarely returned to Hong Kong to reunite with his family every year, he was more rational than emotional. Now, Jiang se was hugging her tightly.
Zhang Chi’s eyes widened. He saw Xia Chaoqun’s unprecedented confusion. She grabbed Jiang SE’s arm but did not dare to pull her away.
If she pushed Jiang se too hard and left a mark on her skin, the media might take pictures of her and write about her.
At this moment, she should be thinking about this small problem. That was why she was not used to being carried by Jiang se, but she did not know what to do.
“Sister Chaoqun!”
Jiang se hugged her and rested her face on Xia Chaoqun’s shoulder. She could feel Xia Chaoqun’s body tense up the moment she hugged her. However, he did not let go as Xia Chaoqun wished.
“I really like you. Thank you for what you’ve done for me.”
She acted coquettishly and gently. When the words left her mouth, Jiang se sharply noticed that Xia Chaoqun’s originally tensed body had suddenly stiffened. She seemed to be a little unaccustomed to this kind of intimacy, but she was trying to relax.
thank you for taking care of me. Thank you for getting the role of ‘Zhong Qi’ for me.
When Jiang se said this, Zhang Chi could clearly see the bewilderment in his calm and decisive superior’s eyes.
Perhaps it was because she had been too powerful in the past, but everyone felt that everything she did was natural. It was because she was Xia Chaoqun. Whether it was in the century Galaxy or in the Huaxia entertainment industry, she was like a legend.
She had brought two female celebrities to the peak of the Chinese film industry. Therefore, no matter what kind of achievements she had, in the eyes of many people, it was because she was Xia Chaoqun. It was natural for her to do her best.
At this moment, Xia Chaoqun was in a daze. Jiang SE’s hug and her thanks were probably the most special and emotional gift she had ever received.
“Am I very willful?”
She did not let go of Xia Chaoqun as she leaned limply against his side. Xia Chaoqun wanted to appear calm and make her sit properly, but the corners of his lips went against her wishes and curled upwards.
“It’s good that you know!”
She wanted to be more serious, but she couldn’t help but remind him, ”
“Be more obedient next time, understand?”
“Yes.”
Jiang se nodded obediently.
After Xia Chaoqun and Zhang Chi left, the few assistants were still in a daze. Mo Anqi patted her chest and said, ”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen sister Xia lose her cool. It’s been six or seven years, Yingluo.”
At this time, Zhang Chi, who was driving Xia Chaoqun home, saw from the rearview mirror that Xia Chaoqun had been lost in thought the entire time.
The lights at the back of the car were on. According to her past habits, she was someone who would not waste time on the road. She would take any free time to work, read documents, and not let her mind be empty.
She was still looking at the document on her lap. However, it had been more than ten minutes since she last turned a page. She lowered her head and looked dazed. Her unusual behavior must have something to do with Jiang SE’s hug and words earlier.
At this moment, Xia Chaoqun was no longer the calm workaholic career woman. However, in Zhang Chi’s eyes, he felt that she was more humane than ever.
