The Genius Doctor, My Wife, Is Valiant Novel - Chapter 80

Chapter 80: 080: Centre Spot of Zhongbo Entertainment

“It’s nothing. I just thought that our views and thinkings aren’t alike and so we’re not suitable as friends.”

The elevator stopped at a floor below and just when Jun Leyao tried stepping out of it, Fang Manyu stopped her once again.

“Jun Leyao, what do you mean? Don’t you dare leave this place without giving me a proper explanation.”

Jun Leyao looked at the person who was blocking her way with displeasure. She paused for a moment and said, “Since you’re the one who’s asking me to say it, then I shall. The only reason why I joined the Aurora Girls and the entertainment industry is because I like singing. No matter what happened in the future, I could accept it willingly. However, I do not like the schemes and rivalry of the industry. I especially hate those who try to plot against one another, trying to cause chaos. Therefore, I’m leaving.”

With that said, Jun Leyao pushed aside the arm that was blocking her and left the elevator.

There were no common grounds between them.

Fang Manyu was left alone in the elevator, pissed at herself. She didn’t have support like Jing Qian, she wasn’t as lucky as Yang Yinli, and she definitely wasn’t as talented as Jun Leyao when it came to singing.

There were numerous artists from Zhongbo Entertainment gathered in the conference room.

These artists were different from the newcomers who would attend numerous daily meetings. Those that were here today were either senior artists or artists that the company was currently focused on, the receivers of most of the resources from the company.

The person in charge of this meeting was the Vice Director of the Operations Department, He Kaiwei.

The meeting held today was focused on the projects that had been recently invested by the company and how they would be distributed amongst the artists.

When Jing Qian arrived at the conference room, there were a lot of people that were already seated. Since she didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry, she didn’t know much about them, even if they were popular artists. She just thought that they looked familiar to her, but she didn’t know their names. After all, most of the people here would have been thrilled if any one of them were eligible to attend her parties in her previous life and would talk about it for days.

“Qianqian, over here.”

As soon as they entered the conference room, Una pointed to the centre spot on the first row.

Other than that particular seat that was empty, the other important seats were already taken. The remaining seats in the room were by the side of the room.

Una figured that even though the Zhan family would not allow them to reveal Jing Qian’s identity, she should still let the other artists realise that Jing Qian’s position was much higher than they could ever imagine.

As for Jing Qian…

Even if Una hadn’t given her the instructions, she would have naturally picked the centre seat anyways.

It’s not that she didn’t want to be low-key, she didn’t even know what the word meant.

As soon as Jing Qian seated herself in the centre seat in the first row, all the artists, as well as the managers standing behind, looked at her strangely.

The centre position was something terrifying in the entertainment industry. Not just the seating position, but even while they were taking a picture. Even for those artists that were well-established, they wouldn’t pick the center position. On one hand, they were trying to be humble, and on the other, they were worried that they would be hated by others.

However, Jing Qian, whose name was still unknown in the entertainment industry, immediately took the position while there were so many other senior artists around her.

“Who’s that?”

“I don’t know.”

“Does anybody know who she is?”

“No idea.”

After asking around, the answer that they all reached was — I don’t know.

Yang Yinli, who came to the meeting with Mei Ruodan, sneered and said, “Her name is Jing Qian. She was originally an artist from Zhongze Entertainment and acted in a drama before this as the sixth female lead. She recently ended the contract with Zhongze and joined ours.”

Although both the companies had similar names, Zhongze Entertainment was just a small company with rising stars. As for Zhongbo Entertainment, they were a corporation of the Zhan family, and they were one of the top three Entertainment corporations in Country Z.

“How did she end the contract with Zhongze? How did she join Zhongbo? Who was the one who paid for her liquidated damages? What’s her story?” one of the managers couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m not sure about that. She must have a really powerful background. Otherwise, where did she get the courage to sit in the centre? I’m sure she only got to sit there because she was qualified to.”

Back in Mei Ruodan’s office before, Sister Dan had already taught her something new, which was to kill others with flattery.
