Liu Qiao raised her hand high, but she couldn't swing it down. She even took two steps back. She looked into Tao Wan's eyes and felt an inexplicable sense of fear. She couldn't help but tremble.
"Hit me!" Tao Wan looked at her and used the system to release pressure. He pointed at his face and said, "Hit me here. It's not the first time anyway. But remember this, every slap you give me, I'll return it to you tenfold! "
Liu Qiao swallowed her saliva. She didn't know why she was so scared. Why couldn't she just hit him like before? She even had the urge to kneel down and apologize. It was only because she resisted the urge that she didn't kneel.
The rookies standing by the side were frightened out of their wits. A few girls covered their mouths. It was unknown if they were frightened by Tao Yuan's words or the tense atmosphere.
Liu Yong pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw the two, he knew they were going to fight again. He quickly walked over and took down Liu Qiao's raised hand. "Sister Qiao, you're a big star. Why are you arguing with a newcomer? Calm down, calm down. I'll teach him a lesson later. This kind of thing requires Sister Qiao to do it personally."
Liu Qiao took deep breaths, 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 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 angry because of him. Calm down, calm down. "Liu Yong comforted her.
"Cancel his audition and let him go home to reflect!" Liu Qiao said to Liu Yong in a commanding tone.
"Um …" Liu Yong said awkwardly, "I just sent in the audition number. It's not good to cancel it now. You know, this is not an ordinary crew. Everyone is very careful. Sister Qiao, just bear with it. They're just rookies who only have 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 was probably no hope of renewing the contract. But the company paid them a salary, so they had to do some work, right? Just bear with it for a few more months. Soon, this person will completely disappear 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 yet. Just you wait!"
Liu Qiao puffed out her chest and raised her chin as she walked out. The anger in her heart could not be dissipated no matter what. She was still upset that she did not slap him just now.
"What are you all standing there for?" Liu Yong said to the stunned rookies. "The car is downstairs. Go down."
The rookies all looked dejected as they walked out of the lounge one after another. The reason why they were like this was because of what Liu Yong said. It happened to be what they were worried about.
The company had not been established for long. The most famous star was Liu Qiao. The entertainment industry was very competitive. If the company's boss did not have some connections, Liu Qiao would not have been able to enter the company.
The company's idea was to use a mass screening method to select the most famous ones from a large group of people. If this batch did not work out, they would change another batch. The company wanted to cultivate famous stars themselves because it was too difficult to sign famous stars. The company signed a lot of rookies, but they only signed a two-year contract. It was like a probation period. However, they were given a guaranteed salary every month.
Once the two-year contract was up, whether they could stay or not was the thing that the rookies were most worried about. It was very difficult to sign with a formal management company. Even if the chance of becoming famous was small, at least there was a chance. Moreover, the company also gave a guaranteed salary. It was not less than the salary of a white-collar worker. After leaving the company, they would be further away from their dreams.
"I say, why don't you learn from your mistakes? You've been taught a lesson by her so many times and you still want to offend her. Can't you just bear with it? Bear with it for a while and you will be able to see the world. Just keep it in your heart. When you become more famous than her, she will come begging you. The entertainment industry is so realistic. "
Tao Wan was expressionless and did not say anything. He knew that Liu Yong was doing it for his own good. That was why he did not say anything. However, 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 was famous, it would not be difficult to act.
"This is the last time." Liu Yong helplessly shook his head. "If you offend her again, I won't care. Just wait for the contract to expire and leave. Originally, I thought that you had the highest chance of becoming 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 is not suitable for the entertainment industry. If you want to survive in the entertainment industry, you will have to bear with it for a long time. This is the industry's rule. "
Liu Yong really wanted to bring someone up. If he always managed these newcomers, he would not have much of a future. Even if he wanted to be a manager, he needed someone for him to manage. The manager told him that as long as he could bring out 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 not good. Everyone seemed to have something on their minds. Halfway through the car, someone started talking about the drama that they were going to audition for. So, those people temporarily forgot their worries and excitedly discussed it.
"I heard that the lead this time is Zheng Xuanlin. He has won the Best Actor award three times. In the past, he only acted in movies. 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 is a famous director and scriptwriter. She has won a lot of awards. She is also the director of Guan Heng Film. I heard that Guan Heng also invested a lot of money in this drama. It is a collaboration between Guan Heng and Zheng Xuanlin's studio. "
"For people like us, this movie is unattainable. But for Movie King 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, it's so sweet. I'm a fan of their coupling. "
"Didn't Zheng Xuanlin tear apart the couple before? He said that he and Cheng Yi are just ordinary friends. It's impossible for them to develop a relationship. "
"Those big stars are like that. If they are not photographed, they will definitely not admit it."
"Even if they are photographed, they will not admit it. It should be said that as long as they don't want to make it public, they will not admit it."
"Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi are really a good match. It will be great if they are really a couple."
"Group leader Liu, do you have any gossip? Are Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi together? "A girl asked curiously.
"I have one 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 had to 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 Yuan had been resting with his eyes closed. Among the topics they were talking about, the only thing that caught his attention was Zheng Xuanlin, the lover of his previous life, and the target of his strategy in this life.
Tao Wan had made a lot of money recently. After Du Yi was discharged from the hospital, they moved to a better place. It was a duplex apartment in a high-end neighborhood. Tao Wan rented the apartment himself. He also hired a helper to cook and clean every day. This way, even if he did not go back at night, he did not have to worry about Du Yi not being taken care of.
After class, Tao Wan took Du Yi to the supermarket in the department store to buy snacks. Du Yi said that he needed new stationery. The two took the elevator to the fifth floor.
Tao Wan let Du Yi choose by himself. Looking at the dazzling array of stationery, Tao Wan also casually walked around.
In front of him, there was a person bending over to organize the goods. Tao Wan felt that this person's back looked familiar. He stopped and stared blankly for a few seconds. When the person turned around, he realized why he looked so familiar. Wasn't this Hu Wenshan, whom he had not seen in a while?
Hu Wenshan was also stunned when he saw Tao Wan. This place was not close to the school. He did not expect to meet Tao Wan here.
Tao Wan turned his head and looked at the light box on the wall. On it was written Wenshan Stationery. "This is your store?"
"… That's right." Hu Wenshan lied to save face. Although this stationery store was called Wenshan Stationery, it was actually his relative's store. This relative had previously named the store Wenshan Stationery to curry favor with him. Now, he could only work for this relative. He was also ridiculed because his teaching license had been revoked. Not to mention public and private schools, even training classes were not willing to hire him.
"Looks like you received a lot of money before. You can even open such a large store here." Tao Wan said.
"I didn't receive money from other students!" Hu Wenshan's expression was ugly. He could not control his anger when he thought about how this person in front of him had caused him to become like this.
"Did I say that you received money from other students? If your IQ is so low, then you should be a good person. If you don't have the IQ, then you must be a bad person. " Tao Wan looked at him with disdain. "In order to prevent me from getting the scholarship, and to prevent me from overshadowing Xu Shaoyan's limelight, you must have received a lot of benefits, right?"
Hu Wenshan's face was ashen. He did receive some benefits, but it was not as much as others thought. He was just following orders from above.
"Brother, I've chosen." Du Yi carried the shopping basket and finally found Tao Wan.
"Okay." Tao Wan turned to look at him. "You go to the counter first. I'll be right there."
