Senior Superstar

Runfengyuan Villa Area.

This morning, I received a notice from the company, saying that Liu Xin, who was summoned by the chairman, was accompanied by his agent Song Ji, and walked to the gates of 11 villas and rang the doorbell.

It was a young man in a black suit who opened the door for them.

Before the two could speak, the young bodyguard said coldly: "The director is in the study on the second floor. You two have half an hour."

"Okay, please lead the way." Song Ji nodded to the young man and said politely.

The other party didn't look at him at all, and turned directly into the villa.

"So crazy?" Liu Xin frowned.

"Don't talk nonsense." Song Ji glared at him, and then followed.

Passing through the well-manicured courtyard and long corridors, the two finally came to the second floor of the villa. The door of the study was not closed, and as soon as the two entered, they saw an old woman with her hands behind her back, looking at a calligraphy on the wall.

"Mr. Zhao, you're here." After the bodyguard knocked on the door lightly, he entered the room and bowed slightly to the figure from behind.

"Understood, you go down."

Only then did Zhao Jinzhi turn around, smiled and waved to the bodyguard to back away, then set her eyes on Liu Xin.

"I heard that something happened to your body last night, is it okay now?"

Looking at Zhao Jinzhi, the boss of the company, with a refreshing smile, Liu Xin nodded, "Thank you, Chairman, for your concern. It's better now. It's just..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Jinzhi looked past him and focused on Song Ji, "I heard from the branch office that you have some opinions about the company recently?"

"Ah!" Song Ji quickly responded with a smile, "It's not an opinion, it's just."

"That's right!" Liu Xin took the lead directly, and said, "One of the extras on the production team of "The End" deliberately touched me on the set to slander my reputation. I refuted the rumors, but instead used the promotional video to promote the trick, and took the opportunity to create a topic and use me to hype it! I feel very uncomfortable with the way the crew behaved!"

Facing Liu Xin's reprimand, Zhao Jinzhi smiled slightly: "Then how can you feel better?"

Zhao Jinzhi's tepid attitude made Liu Xin feel uneasy, so he couldn't help but look at Song Ji beside him.

"It's such a chairman, and we don't have any other requirements. It's just that we want the crew to come forward to confirm that the old man is indeed Pengci, and then issue a statement to eliminate the influence for Liu Xin."

"if not?"

"Then. Keke, Zhao Dong, what did you say?"

"How about I say otherwise?"

"Otherwise, then we will be very passive in public opinion, Director Zhao. You know, Liu Xin's acting career is developing well now. She makes a lot of money for the company every year."

Song Ji didn't say it clearly, but the meaning inside and outside the words is already obvious.

Taking a deep look at Song Ji, who was full of smiles, and Liu Xin, who was obviously not very happy with a cold face, Zhao Jinzhi smiled.

He waved to Liu and Song who had been standing there since entering the room, "Look, how is this writing?"

The two of them didn't know what she meant, but they moved closer together.

It was a pair of regular script, on which were written couplets. The brushwork is graceful and graceful, and the hooks are lingering. At first glance, it is the handwriting of a woman. But there is something heroic in the frame of the characters.

As for the content of that word, Liu Xin looked a little familiar.

"The peony flower is so empty that you can see it, but the jujube flower is small and strong? Mr. Zhao, this is"

Liu Xin's expression fell.

Isn't this the fucking word that was pulled in the old man's video? !

"Last night, the branch office already called me and told me about your affairs, but I didn't understand the situation at that time, so I didn't rush to call you over." Zhao Jinzhi's tone was still calm.

"Now, I have understood your matter. I called you here just to tell you that the company will not order "The End" to make any statement on this matter. And"

Speaking of this, the smile on her face faded: "I advise you to recognize your identities."

"Don't think that now that you have some popularity, you have the qualifications to negotiate terms with the company. Don't forget, since the company can spend resources to promote you, it can also make you lose every minute! That's right, you are making money for the company. A lot of money. But at the same time, don’t forget that the money you earn is also spent by the company with resources. There is still one and a half years left in the contract. In this year and a half, it is an option for the company to continue to support you to create benefits. And hiding you in the snow, distributing your resources to other artists is also an option."

Zhao Jinzhi's sudden vigor made Liu Xin shiver uncontrollably.

At this time, Song Ji finally remembered that the old woman in front of her, who had recently been rumored to be retiring frequently, was a well-known "Iron Lady" in the entertainment capital circle ten years ago!

Seeing Liu Xin's face turned pale with foundation, Zhao Jinzhi slowly took off the scroll on the wall and threw it at his feet.

"Obviously you didn't hear what Li Shixin said to you. Now I put it into words and give it to you. Whether you want to keep it in your heart is up to you. But I still want to remind you, don't think that you Now that it's hot, you can be lawless. In the past twenty years, I have promoted countless stars. But there are not a few who have destroyed it with my own hands. Back then, Wu Enqiao, Ma Jingming, and Han Zairan. Which one is not as famous as you are now? ?But"

Speaking of this, Zhao Jinzhi frowned and narrowed her eyes: "How are they doing now?"

With a swipe, cold sweat dripped down Liu Xin's back.

How could he not know the three people Zhao Jinzhi mentioned?

One is an idol singer who became popular in 10 years, but later it was reported that he had a disagreement with the performing arts company and said he was going to change jobs. Not long after, it was exposed that he was gay, and then retired.

One is an actor who became popular in the mainland around 12 years ago. He has appeared in several Xianxia TV series and was known as the little prince of ancient costumes at that time. Later, for some reason, it was hidden by the company. The peak period of her career came to an abrupt end. In the past two years, she could only accept some small-budget urban idol dramas, and her entire acting career was wasted.

As for the last Han Zairan, it was nearly two years ago. As an actress who is very promising to become a popular female star, she refused to listen to the company's assignment and accepted a few endorsements that did not fit her personality, and attended a few events to make money, but was sued for bankruptcy by the company because of the contract. In the end, I could only take on all kinds of bad dramas, running around between several crews a day to make money and pay off debts, a miserable batch.

When Liu Xin couldn't help trembling all over, Song Ji was the first to react.

"Director Zhao! This time we didn't think about it. In fact, Liu Xin didn't have any other intentions. He just wanted to hype up the crew. Isn't the loss of Liu Xin's reputation also a loss to the company? It's all in the same pot. of"

"I've said everything I need to say. You should think about what to do in the future."

"Ok Mr. Zhao, thank you Mr. Zhao for your suggestion, we."

Impatient with Song Ji's chatter, Zhao Jinzhi turned around directly.

"roll."

Immediately, the bodyguard who had been waiting at the door entered the room and made a "please" gesture to the two people who were at a loss in the room.

"Zhao Dong, you asked me to investigate the matter of the actor, and it has been done."

After Liu Xin and Song Ji hurried out of the villa with the scrolls in their hands, Li Ming, Zhao Jinzhi's bodyguard, also her driver and life assistant, returned to the study on the second floor and bowed to Zhao Jinzhi who was standing at the window thinking about something .

"explain."

"This person is indeed suffering from a very serious carotid artery thrombosis. According to what the hospital has learned, it is true that his children did not give him treatment. After leaving the hospital a few days ago, he came to Rongdian. Based on these materials, his The credibility of the video statement is still very high."

Is it tall?

In Zhao Jinzhi's mind, there was a figure who was dying one moment, and alive after eating a piece of chewing gum the next moment.

Thinking of all the turmoil in the past few days, she almost laughed out loud.

"Things in this world are neither completely true nor completely false." Turning around, Zhao Jinzhi smiled at the bodyguard and said, "Ah Ming, people want to believe him. It is better to say that he is telling the truth rather than telling the truth." His morals are higher than Liu Xin's, and his acting skills are good enough to fool most people."

"What Zhao Dong said is true. But why do you know that this person is Pengci, and still treat Liu Xin?"

"It has nothing to do with whether the Pengci incident is true or not. If you don't beat Liu Xin, others may think that I am too old to go into the coffin. The branch reported this kind of shit that a general manager can do to me. , What do you think it means? This is some people testing me with this matter. They just want to see if I, an old woman who is sick and reclusive, still have the energy to handle the company's affairs. They also want to see , Do I, this old lady, still have the vigor and ruthlessness of the past?"

"Chairman, Liu Xin, why did you let him live?"

Zhao Jinzhi exhaled, and smiled coldly: "Those people have to show their tails. I want to see who they are. Now I can't stand it anymore, and want to support the young master to the throne."

She seemed unwilling to talk about these matters, and after clicking on Li Ming, she turned to ask, "What about other materials about Li Shixin?"

"There's nothing else. This person is currently living in the home of a group leader in Jianhong Community, and has just registered as an extra with the Screen Actors Union."

"Oh." After silently writing down the address, Zhao Jinzhi waved her hand, "Got it, go down."

"yes."

"etc."

"What else does the chairman want to say?"

"Let the company go to say hello to the trade union, and change him to a special actor. At such an old age, it's a bit hard for extra actors."

".Yes, I've made a note, and I'll do it right away."

With a trace of suspicion, Li Ming went downstairs.

He couldn't figure out why his own chairman was suddenly interested in a dying old man.
