Liu Yong pushed the door open. When he saw the two of them, he knew that they were at loggerheads again. He quickly walked over and took down Liu Qiao's raised hand. "Sister Qiao, you're such a big star. Why are you arguing with a newbie? Calm down, calm down. I'll teach him a lesson later. This kind of thing requires Sister Qiao to do it personally."
Liu Qiao breathed heavily, but she still couldn't calm down. She said to Liu Yong, "I'll give you face and let him go for today. But you better teach him a lesson. Otherwise, I won't let him go so easily!"
"Thank you, Sister Qiao, for giving me face. I'll definitely teach him a lesson. Don't worry, don't worry. You still have to go to the audition later. You can't be so angry because of him that you can't act normally. Calm down, calm down. "Liu Yong tried to persuade her.
"Cancel his audition and let him go home to reflect!" Liu Qiao said to Liu Yong in a commanding tone.
"This …" Liu Yong said awkwardly. "I just reported the number of people for the audition. It's not good to cancel it now. You know that this isn't a normal crew. Everyone has to be careful. Sister Qiao, just bear with it. They're just newbies with a two-year contract. In less than a year, their contracts will expire. It's not certain if they can be renewed. With Hua Xi's personality, there's probably no hope of renewing the contract. But the company pays them a salary. They have to do some work, right? Just bear with it for a few more months. Soon, this person will disappear completely in front of you. It's not worth it to be angry with him. "
Liu Qiao turned her head and glared at Tao Wan. "This isn't over. Just you wait!"
Liu Qiao walked out with her head held high. The anger in her heart couldn't dissipate. She was still upset that she didn't slap him.
"What are you all standing there for?" Liu Yong said to the stunned newbies. "The car is downstairs. Let's go."
The rookies all looked dejected as they walked out of the lounge one after another. The reason why they were like this was because Liu Yong's words were exactly what they were worried about.
The company hadn't been established for long, and the most famous star was Liu Qiao. The competition in the entertainment industry was fierce. If the boss of the company didn't have some connections, Liu Qiao wouldn't have been able to enter the company.
The company's idea was to use a mass screening method to select the most qualified people from a large group of people. If this batch didn't work out, they would change another batch. The company wanted to nurture their own famous stars because it was too difficult to sign famous stars. The company had signed a lot of newcomers, but they only signed a short two-year contract. It was like a probation period, but they would be given a guaranteed salary every month.
Once the two-year contract was up, whether they could stay or not was the thing that these newcomers were most worried about. It was very difficult to sign with a formal management company now. Even if the chance of becoming famous was small, at least there was a chance. Moreover, the company also gave him a guaranteed salary, which was no less than the salary of a white-collar worker. After leaving the company, he would be further away from his dream.
"I say, why don't you learn your lesson? You've already been taught a lesson by her so many times, but you still want to offend her. Can't you just bear with it? Bear with it for a while, and you'll be able to see the world. Just keep it in your heart. When you become more famous than her, she'll come begging you. The entertainment industry is so realistic. "
Tao Wan was expressionless and didn't say anything. He knew that Liu Yong was doing it for his own good, so he didn't say anything. But it was impossible for him to tolerate people like Liu Qiao. Even if he left the company and became an internet celebrity, he would still find a way to become famous. As long as he had fame, it wouldn't be difficult to act.
"This is the last time." Liu Yong helplessly shook his head and said, "If you offend her again, I won't care. Just wait for your contract to expire and leave. Originally, I thought that you were the most likely to become famous among this batch of people. Let's not talk about becoming an A-lister, even a B-lister or B-lister would be good. What if one day your luck changes and you become famous after playing a role that no one wants? But now it seems that your personality isn't suitable for the entertainment industry. If you want to survive in the entertainment industry, you'll have to bear with it for a long time. That's the rule of the industry. "
Liu Yong really wanted to groom someone. He didn't have much of a future if he kept managing these newcomers. But even if he wanted to be a manager, he needed someone to groom. The manager told him that as long as he could groom a promising newcomer, he would be the manager after signing a formal contract. Otherwise, he would have to be the leader of a new batch.
When Tao Wan and Liu Yong got in the car, the atmosphere in the car was quite bad. Everyone seemed to have something on their minds. Halfway through the journey, someone started talking about the drama they were going to audition for. Thus, those people temporarily forgot their worries and started discussing excitedly.
"I heard that the main lead this time is Zheng Xuanlin. He's a three-time Best Actor. He only acted in movies in the past, but this time, he actually took on a weekly drama."
"His studio seems to have invested in this drama. Zheng has always valued the script. He must be satisfied with the script this time. That's why he took on this drama."
"The director and scriptwriter of this drama is Xiang Qing. She's a famous director and scriptwriter. She's won a lot of awards. She's also the director of Guan Heng Film and Television. I heard that Guan Heng invested a lot of money in this drama. It's a collaboration between Guan Heng and Zheng Xuanlin's studio. "
"For people like us, this drama is unattainable. But for Zheng, it's definitely the second best choice. No matter what, he's still a movie star."
"Do you think that Zheng took on this drama because of Cheng Yi? If that's the case, then it's too sweet. I'm their CP fan. "
"Didn't Zheng Xuanlin tear down the CP before? He said that he and Cheng Yi are just ordinary friends. It's impossible for them to develop a romantic relationship. "
"Those big stars are like that. They definitely won't admit it if they're not photographed."
"Even if they're photographed, they still won't admit it. It should be said that as long as they don't want to make it public, they won't admit it."
"Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi are really a good match. It'll be great if they're really a couple."
"Group leader Liu, do you have any gossip? Are Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi together? "A girl asked curiously.
"I do have some gossip. That is, in another two or three months, another batch of newcomers will enter the company." Liu Yong said expressionlessly. He thought that this batch of people had no hope. He'd better count on the next batch of newcomers.
The car instantly quieted down. The atmosphere that had just become lively immediately dropped the temperature again.
Tao Wan had been resting with his eyes closed. In their conversation, the only thing that caught his attention was Zheng Xuanlin, his lover in his previous life, and the target of his strategy in this life.
There were still many people who were interested. Many Go masters personally challenged Tao Wan. In the end, they left with their things and left convinced. Those who didn't know how to play Go hired Go masters at a high price to play against Tao Wan. But the result was the same.
Gradually, the number of people who came to Tao Wan to play Go decreased. Not only did they not get the painting, but they also lost half of their wealth. No one could afford this.
No matter how rich they were, after failing once or twice, they gave up. There was only one person who didn't give up. This was the fourth time that he asked Tao Wan to play Go in public.
The first two times, Old Man Liu thought that Tao Wan won by a fluke. He was so close to beating him. When he lost to Tao Wan for the fourth time, and it was an irreversible defeat, he realized that everything was under Tao Wan's control. No matter how much he studied the previous game, it was impossible to beat him.
For other people who came to challenge him, Tao Wan made them understand that with their strength, they couldn't beat him. Only Old Man Liu gave him the illusion that he won by a fluke. Old Man Liu not only lost three pieces of land to him, but also half of the shares of the Liu family company. With these shares and some scattered shares, Wei Shicheng could directly buy their company.
Looking at the irreversible game, Old Man Liu finally realized that he had fallen into Tao Wan's trap.
Old Man Liu slowly raised his head and looked at Tao Wan. "You did it on purpose?"
"That's right," Tao Wan admitted with a smile.
"Why?" Old Man Liu felt that he should at least know the reason why he gave him half of the Liu family's assets. "Because we didn't agree to sell the land to Shicheng, so you hate us?"
"The land is your family's. It's your right to sell it or not. If I hate you because of this, I'm afraid that even God won't be able to stand it. I'm very afraid of retribution. "
"Then why?" Old Man Liu stared hard at him and asked, "You could have made me understand the first time that I had no chance of winning. Why did you give me the illusion that I could win?"
"Because your Liu family offended me. If I don't destroy your Liu family, I won't be able to get my revenge," Tao Wan said.
"Who in the Liu family has offended you?" Old Man Liu felt that he was strict with his grandchildren and would not bully others.
Liu Xiujie, who was sitting below, immediately lowered his head. His body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Your grandson, Liu Xiujie. He pursued me before, but I didn't agree. So he hated me. Not only did he think of ways to make trouble for me, but he also found someone to deliberately make things difficult for me. He and his girlfriend, Xu Shaoyan, forced me step by step into a dead end just to make me beg him. So I also wanted to let him feel what it's like to be forced into a dead end. "
Old Man Liu suddenly looked at Liu Xiujie. He didn't expect that his grandson, who had always been sensible and obedient, would do such a thing behind his back.
The people around Liu Xiujie also looked at him. They thought that it was because of him that the Liu family faced the current situation.
"I'm a very vengeful person, and I will definitely take revenge. Since you are relatives of the Wei family, let me remind you that this is not the end. Liu Xiujie must be severely punished. Otherwise, I won't let it go. "
"You don't have to do it. I'll do it myself," Old Man Liu said through gritted teeth. He stood up and walked out.
The audience also stood up and walked out. They were discussing what they had just heard. This was another piece of gossip that they could talk about for a long time.
Tao Wan returned to the lounge and flipped through the land deeds and share transfer documents. "The Liu family is really a famous landlord. There are invisible mountains of gold and silver on these lands. For so many years, countless people have been jealous."
"No matter how jealous others are, it's all yours now," Wei Shicheng poured a cup of warm water for him, then sat down beside him and looked at the documents with him.
