Chapter 431: Fatal blow

~8 min read 1,436 words

I saw Xu Tian wearing a beige windbreaker, his hair messy, his eyes and brows carrying the fatigue of a long journey, but the flames of burning fire were flashing in those bright star-like eyes.

No one noticed when he walked into the studio, and before Murong Xue was about to wipe Zhou Shishi's shoes, he protected her by his side.

"Mr. Xu!" Seeing Xu Tian, Nie Jingjing walked over quickly and gave him a hug directly.

And at this time, others recovered from the sudden shock.

Seeing Xu Tian, Guo Zhihao's face immediately became cold and terrifying.

"Xu Tian, who allowed you to come in and obstruct the filming?"

"Filming?" Xu Tian pushed the overly enthusiastic Nie Jingjing away, then stepped forward and used his body to block her and Murong Xue: "I'm here to notify you, the filming is canceled."

"Canceled? Why?" Guo Zhihao's face sank, and he asked loudly: "Xu Tian, you are no longer the supervisor of the Economic Department, it's not your turn to make decisions here!"

"So he is Xu Tian? So handsome!" The staff around looked at Xu Tian and whispered to each other.

"So handsome, he could have debuted. Why be an agent?"

"They are my artists, do you say I have the right to make decisions?" Xu Tian didn't give an inch: "I won't let the artists under me cooperate with such inferior hype."

"Supervisor Guo, he actually said we are inferior!" Zhou Shishi was relentless: "Hurry up and teach him a lesson!"

"Xu Tian, it seems you still don't understand your situation. If President Guo knows that you disturbed the filming plan and indulged the artists under you to make trouble, your position as deputy manager will not be stable."

Guo Zhihao had been trying to find an excuse to step on Xu Tian recently. Now that he had broken into the studio to make trouble and affected the filming progress, it just happened to give him a chance to complain to his uncle.

A poor boy also deserves to climb higher than him? Don't dream.

"Position of deputy manager?" Xu Tian's lips hooked into a mocking arc, and then he took out a folded piece of paper from his coat pocket: "I really don't care."

"The resignation letter is already written, you can do whatever you want."

"What did you say?" Guo Zhihao stared at the piece of paper in Xu Tian's hand in astonishment: "You intend to resign?"

He originally thought Xu Tian would continue to swallow his anger. After all, without the company's protection, he would be in a difficult situation.

However, he never expected that Xu Tian would actually dare to leave the company.

You know, although everyone in the company knew why Xu Tian was promoted to deputy manager this time, the position of deputy manager was not something anyone could take on.

How many ordinary white-collar workers struggle for a lifetime and don't even mix into the middle level, let alone the entertainment industry that talks about capital everywhere. For Xu Tian, a poor boy without background, being able to climb to the position of deputy manager in less than a year after entering Qingguo Entertainment was already the peak of his career.

Exactly how stupid would one be to give up a good deputy manager position and go to another company to do odd jobs and start from scratch?

"It turns out Supervisor Guo's hearing is not good." Xu Tian put the resignation letter in his hand on the small table next to Guo Zhihao, and then emphasized word by word: "Not intend, but I am resigning now."

"What did you say?" Guo Zhihao glared at Xu Tian with a vicious look: "You think you can threaten me by resigning? And since you have already resigned, then the arrangements for Qingguo Music's artists are even less your turn to interfere!"

"I order you, get out now!"

Xu Tian ignored Guo Zhihao's clamor, but turned to look at Murong Xue and Nie Jingjing behind him, and asked softly.

"Are you two willing to follow me?"

"Mr. Xu, what are you joking about? Does this still need to be asked?" Nie Jingjing was the first to speak: "I only recognize you as an agent. You resign, of course I have to follow and leave too!"

"Xu Ge, I'll follow you too." Murong Xue nodded firmly.

"Mr. Xu, I've been waiting for this sentence of yours for a long time!" Nie Jingjing looked very relieved: "I was really worried that you would always let Guo Zhihao, this bastard, and endure it in the company!"

"..." Xu Tian found it a bit funny: "In your Nie

"Of course not!" Nie Jingjing tried to change the subject: "Mr. Xu, the way you appeared just now was incredibly cool; you were basically the male lead of an idol drama!"

Seeing that both Nie Jingjing and Murong Xue were about to leave the company with Xu Tian, Guo Zhihao, who had been completely ignored, flew into a rage.

"Nie Jingjing, Murong Xue, have you two lost your minds? Do you know what the consequences will be for terminating your contracts with the company during the contract period?"

"Xu Tian is nothing but a poor kid with nothing; are you going to follow him out of the company to drink the northwest wind?"

"After leaving the company, not only will you two be saddled with massive debts, but you will never be able to get work again, and your acting careers will end right here. Are you really willing to ruin your futures for him?"

"Out of respect for you being company veterans, I'll give you one more chance to choose. If you draw a line with Xu Tian now and stay at the company, I can let bygones be bygones..."

"You'd better save that opportunity for yourself!" Nie Jingjing raised her eyebrows with contempt and smiled, immediately throwing the microphone in her hand to the staff member nearby: "I haven't wanted to record this crappy show for a long time!"

At the same time, Murong Xue also took off the name tag on her chest and handed it to the little assistant beside her.

"Supervisor Guo, I've also decided to advance and retreat with Xu Ge."

"You... you all..." Guo Zhihao was choked to the point of being unable to speak.

"And me!" Just as everyone was stunned by their decision, Yan Qingxue also excitedly picked up the jewelry box she had brought and trotted all the way to Xu Tian's side.

"How could I be missing from a resignation? I'm leaving with you all too!"

"Annie, what kind of trouble are you stirring up? My styling isn't even finished yet, how can you just leave like this?"

Zhou Shishi had long since treated Yan Qingxue as her errand girl during this time; seeing her about to leave, she hurriedly pinched her voice and shouted at her.

It was a pity that Yan Qingxue treated Zhou Shishi like air, not even having the interest to acknowledge her.

She stood in front of Xu Tian, exchanged a smile with Nie Jingjing and Murong Xue, and then the four of them turned around with great tacit understanding, walking away from the recording studio with their heads held high.

Guo Zhihao, Zhou Shishi, and the others watched helplessly as Xu Tian and his group left the studio cleanly and decisively; their mood at that moment was like being struck by lightning.

No one expected Xu Tian to resign so easily, not even leaving a margin for bargaining or negotiation, and just left with the core members of Qingguo Music.

Nie Jingjing was originally the number one star of Qingguo Music, having created eighty percent of the company's profits single-handedly before Xu Tian joined, while Murong Xue was a newly promoted trending female singer discovered and polished by Xu Tian, who became an overnight sensation after starring in a musical produced by Guo and currently had endless endorsement deals.

These two were both hot female stars in the entertainment industry; one could imagine how much loss their departure would bring to Qingguo Music.

What's more, besides the two artists, there was also Yan Qingxue, an all-around talent who could both plan and design costumes and styling, plus the gold-medal manager Xu Tian who helped Qingguo Music escape the fate of being at the bottom of performance rankings. The departure of these people together was practically a fatal blow to Qingguo Music.

Not only were Guo Zhihao and the others dumbfounded, but even the show's producer and director were extremely shocked.
