Chapter 106: Why Should Anyone Promote You?
Although Qingguo Music is under Tian Feng Entertainment, it is just an inconspicuous small company, ranking last in performance every year.
But it is a subsidiary under Tian Feng Entertainment after all, better than nothing, and still much better than those small entertainment companies that are makeshift troupes.
The assessments for artists and staff at Qingguo Music are the same as at the headquarters, very strict. People who can enter the company to work have also gone through several rounds of re-examinations to get this opportunity.
Because Du Xiaowei is the person in charge of Qingguo Music, whether it's artists or staff who want to enter the company, they must first get his consent.
But now the company hasn't received any news, and the headquarters suddenly sent an agent to parachute in. Therefore, everyone in the company has a very big opinion of this newcomer who hasn't appeared yet.
Especially those cronies of Du Xiaowei, who have already placed Xu Tian in a hostile position.
Du Xiaowei's eyes turned cold upon hearing this, and an aura of anger radiated from his body, and he sneered disdainfully.
"A newcomer? It's that Xu Tian, right?"
"Yes, it's Xu Tian! Du Jingli, do you know him?"
Du Xiaowei seemed to think of the day Xu Tian was at odds with him at the headquarters meeting, and his face turned even uglier.
"Just a greenhorn who doesn't understand anything, relying on playing little tricks to get an opportunity. This kind of small character doesn't need me to worry."
"But..." The middle-aged man was in a difficult position and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Du Xiaowei.
"I am the boss here at Qingguo Music. Can a newcomer turn the sky upside down?"
Du Xiaowei rolled his eyes.
That layman Xu Tian actually found the correct public relations method to clear Shang Yiran's name.
"That guy surnamed Xu ruined my good deed, and I haven't settled the account with him yet. Now he took the initiative to come to my door to find abuse. He simply doesn't know what's good for him!"
"It just so happens that this time we'll settle the new and old accounts together!"
Once Shang Yiran is banned, the resources that originally belonged to him would definitely be distributed to Nie Jingjing. As a result, Shang Yiran was not banned, but instead gained more sympathy and support, and even his endorsement fees rose quite a bit.
In this way, the artists under his management were still suppressed by the artists on Zhou Ping's side, and there was no telling when they would have a chance to stand out.
The tall and thin man heard that Du Xiaowei wanted to settle accounts with Xu Tian, and he also gained confidence, hurriedly flattering:
"For our company, we still need Du Jingli to come out personally to suppress those greenhorns who don't have eyes."
The tall and thin youth was anxious to report to Du Xiaowei just now and didn't notice Murong Xue sitting on the sofa. Now that he saw her, he immediately understood Du Xiaowei's plan, and a lewd smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Murong Xue's body stiffened, and her clenched fists tightened even more.
"Nothing else, right?" Du Xiaowei glared at the man impatiently and scolded: "If nothing, get out of here quickly, don't delay my business!"
"Yes, I'm going out, going out right away!"
The tall and thin man understood and hurriedly exited the office, specifically closing the office door tightly before leaving.
The office fell silent again.
Du Xiaowei looked in Murong Xue's direction, the impatience in his tone already very obvious.
"Murong Xue, stop pretending to be noble. How many female stars in this circle are clean? Since you entered this circle, you should have some awareness. Not everyone has as much patience as I do. Stop looking for trouble for yourself."
Murong Xue pursed her pale lips tightly upon hearing this and didn't speak.
"Xiao Xue, why don't you get it?"
Seeing that Murong Xue was still unmoved, Du Xiaowei's attitude softened again: "Follow me, and I guarantee I'll give all the resources in my hands to you. Everyone gets what they need. Why not do it?"
Du Xiaowei said, leaning toward Murong Xue's side, continuing to entice her.
"This kind of thing is easy once you've done it once. As long as you submit to me, not only can I promote you, but I can also transfer your father to a better hospital and pay for his surgery..."
Because of Du Xiaowei's leaning in, Murong Xue's body became even stiffer, and she quickly moved to the edge of the sofa, making a posture of intending to escape at any time.
But Du Xiaowei was confident that Murong Xue wouldn't run, and didn't dare to run, so he pushed his luck and reached his claws toward her waist.
"Xiao Xue, you've been in the company for two years. A female star's flowering period is only a few years. You've already wasted two years. Do you really have to wait until you're old and yellow before you get it?"
"With your conditions, if you had followed me when you first entered the company, you would definitely have become a popular female star like Nie Jingjing, and maybe even redder than her."
"It's just a pity that you were too stubborn and wasted your good time for nothing. Look at those artists who debuted at the same time as you. Even if they aren't big hits, at least they can drive luxury cars and live in big villas without worrying about food and clothing. Don't you feel a bit sorry?"
Du Xiaowei used both soft and hard tactics, but Murong Xue remained unmoved by his words.
Gradually, his patience ran out.
"Murong Xue, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
"You think that by dragging it out with me now, you can regain your freedom and sign with other companies when your contract with the company expires? Don't be naive!"
Du Xiaowei sneered, his tone filled with mockery.
"When you are under my management, I can push away your resources. Do you think you'll have other companies wanting you after you terminate your contract?"
"Although Tian Feng Entertainment isn't the only one, it also occupies half of the entertainment industry. As long as I release some rumors, you won't even think about getting on stage to sing for the rest of your life!"
Hearing Du Xiaowei's shameless remarks, Murong Xue's fingernails sank into her flesh.
She suddenly raised her head and looked directly into Du Xiaowei's eyes:
"Just as you said, there are so many people in the entertainment industry, why does it have to be me? I am not the kind of woman who can sell her body for profit!"
"What selling your body? Don't say it so ugly."
Du Xiaowei's lewd gaze lingered on Murong Xue's graceful body: "This is reasonably utilizing your own advantages."
"Murong Xue, you've been in the entertainment industry for a while. You aren't still that naive, are you? Do you really think those heavenly kings and queens rely on their own strength to become popular?"
"Without anyone promoting you, even if you are a phoenix, you have to lie in the mud!"
"Look at Chen Xianxian, who debuted at the same time as you. A plastic surgery face, and she's off-key when singing. She can't compare to you in anything, but she has already released two albums and can film TV dramas and play lovers with popular young actors."
"She was just a dirt chicken before. The reason she is so popular is because I introduced her to President Li, which allowed her to fly onto the branch!"
"Like you, a little white flower, they are everywhere in the entertainment industry. You have no background, no connections, and you don't pay. Why should the boss promote you?" ===== CHAPTER 107 =====
