After going through the contract carefully, Liang Qiaoen’s voice was a little excited as she said, “I want to ask, why are you choosing me? With your appearance, you’ll stand out even in the entertainment industry. You can pick anyone in the main agent office. All you’ll have to do is to ask. You can even consider the award-winning agent, Ye Xin to represent you…”
Xia Yishan smiled. “I wouldn’t dare to think about Agent Ye, but there are many reasons why I chose you…”
Liang Qiaoen put the contract aside. “Do tell.”
Xia Yishan took a sip of tea and spoke in a stance that she had a lot to say, “You’re attentive. You’re good at observing a person’s strong points and do your utmost to bring out the best in your talents. If the talent gave up on you, it was their fault. They either gave up on themselves, such as cases of retirement, or they fell into a slump. On your part, you’d only give up on them when forced, such as in a case of poaching, for instance…”
Liang Qiaoen was surprised to hear her own thoughts being expressed, as almost nobody could guess what she was thinking, “You knew about Jiang Chcnchen?”
“I do. Regarding Jiang Chcnchen’s behavior, she’s rushing to climb when her foundation is weak. Even if she doesn’t have a terrible fall, she’ll remain stagnant.” Xia Yishan added, “Your effort was wasted.”
Liang Qiaoen finally understood why Xia Yishan could be signed under Asia Entertainment at the mere age of 18 and having just been accepted into the academy. If another company had taken her, it would have been a devastating loss for Asia Entertainment.
Xia Yishan saw a glow in Liang Qiaoen’s eyes. “What do you say, Agent Liang?
Are you willing to take me?”
Liang Qiaoen leaned back. “I have conditions for all my talent…”
“Go ahead and tell me!”
“Uprightness.”
“What else?”
“Honesty.”
“What else?”
“Wisdom.”
“Yo, these would be the same requirements for scoring in the imperial examination if you added ‘straight-A student’.”
“That’s a great idea.”
The two girls chuckled in unison.
After Xia Yishan left, Liang Qiaoen took the initiative to look for her superior. She had done the handover in high spirits, and she had begun to come up with a plan to get Xia Yishan into the entertainment industry.
Xia Yishan was in a great mood. She took a picture of her contract and sent it to Su Jingting.
Xia Yishan: “Master Su, I’ve signed the contract ~
He replied immediately.
Su Jingting: “Congrats.”
Xia Yishan: “Eh? Are you not on set?”
Su Jingting, who was in a video conference, replied: No. I don’t have anything coming up lately.”
Xia Yishan: “So your time was freed up when you became the best actor?”
Su Jingting looked at the documents piled next to the conferencing camera. He wanted to cry: “I’m working on other stuff.”
Xia Yishan: “Ohh.”
Su Jingting: “Let’s have dinner tonight to celebrate you signing the contract. I’ll pick you up later.”
Xia Yishan: “Sure.”
She agreed to a date just like that…
Xia Yishan put her phone in the bag that she brought along and went to the metro station happily.
Never had she thought she could sign a contract with Asia Entertainment after being reborn or meet a successful senior like Su Jingting. It was like money falling from the sky for her!
Su Jingting was in an international video conference. He replied as soon as Xia Yishan texted him.
Since he had agreed to pick her up for dinner, he ended the meeting eagerly and left.
He had gone to the wardrobe to pick his clothes before Assistant Sun managed to react. He had never seen Su Jingting being so vain before…
He immediately guessed that Su Jingting was going to see the 18-year-old Ms. Xia.
‘Oh, Best Actor Su. You’re already 27, aren’t you embarrassed to be dating an 18-year-old girl? Doing that, it’s like you’re robbing the cradle!’
Su Jingting departed right after changing, leaving the unfortunate Assistant Sun behind to handle his work…
