Chapter 156: Too Many Words
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
However, there was still some trouble with Uncle Xing. His contract with the medium-sized entertainment company he had signed with was still half a year from ending.
Uncle Xing was a nickname given by a familiar peer. He was not old, and his full name was Xing Quan. He had been in the industry for 18 years and was 40 years old this year. Most people had started acting when they were students, but he didn’t rush, and focused on studying acting in class for his four years in school. To put it bluntly, he was a drama fanatic.
Xing Quan was very picky about scripts, but the company only wanted to earn quick money. How could they care so much? They forced Uncle Xing to take on all kinds of lousy commercial scripts. Uncle Xing had long been dissatisfied. Back then, he had just graduated and was fighting alone. If not for the teacher knowing his ability and often recommending him for some chances, he would not have been able to last long enough to change careers.
Later on, he really had no choice. Xing Quan signed with the current company when he was 30 years old. He did not earn much, but at least he could take care of his family and have the career he loved.
However, the two sides were at a stalemate now. The company had not given him any opportunities for more than a year, and it was already a problem for him to support his family. This included “Cycle”. It was because Feng Bin had worked with him before and understood him that he invited him to join the production team.
Tan Ming seized this opportunity and agreed to only push 20% of the commercial filming to Uncle Xing. Only then did he successfully persuade Uncle Xing to join Golden Star Entertainment Company after his contract expired.
After completing the recruitment, Tan Ming could not help but show off to Jiang Huai. She waited until lunchtime before making a call.
The moment the call connected, Jiang Huai’s gentle voice sounded. “An’an, it’s rare for you to take the initiative to call me. Have you eaten lunch?”
As a qualified elder brother, Jiang Huai felt that it was very necessary for him to care about his sister’s daily life!
Tan Ming replied calmly, “I’ve already eaten. Third Brother, you’ve eaten too, right?”
Jiang Huai was going to perform a vigorous song and dance at the gala this time. It had only been a morning, and his sweat had already soaked two T-shirts. However, now that he heard his sister’s concern, he felt revived. “I’ve eaten too. Is there anything you need me to deal with?”
Tan Ming smiled smugly. “I should be the one handling it for you. Third Brother, I’ve recruited three capable actors for you! It’s just that there’s an actor who can only come over after half a year when his contract expires. However, I’ve already signed a contract with him. He basically won’t change his mind.”
Jiang Huai frowned slightly. He was a little worried that his sister had been tricked, but it didn’t matter. He still had the capacity for trial and error.
Jiang Huai’s brows relaxed and he praised her against his conscience. “An’an, you’re too awesome! You recruited three at once! Not bad, you deserve praise. I’ll bring you a gift when I get back.”
Tan Ming hurriedly nodded, but when she thought about how he couldn’t see it over the phone, she hurriedly replied, “Thank you, Brother. I happen to have nothing to do during the holidays these few days, so I wanted to expand our artists. Don’t worry, I’ve gone through everything. They’re all actors who filmed “Cycle with me.”
Jiang Huai was stunned for a moment. If he remembered correctly, none of those actors were famous. They had acting skills, but in the entertainment industry, luck was a mystery. To make a person popular, acting skills alone were not enough.
Jiang Huai had an indescribable expression on his face, but his voice was still gentle. “An Xin said that the actors hired by the production team all have a certain level of ability. You thought of choosing from them! You’re too smart! I didn’t think so much at all!”
Who cares? I’ll think about it after praising my sister!
Tan Ming did not suspect anything. She believed in her own judgment and believed that this drama would allow actors with many scenes to increase their popularity. “I saw that you’ve been so busy recently. I knew that you definitely wouldn’t have the time to take care of these things.”
The two of them chatted for a while more. After confirming that when Jiang Huai’s New Year’s Eve Gala ended he would return to the ancestral residence to stay overnight, the two of them hung up.
The dancers in the rehearsal room and the staff of Jiang Huai’s studio were looking at the gentle expression on Jiang Huai’s face in surprise. They recalled the gentle tone they had heard just now. Was this still the Jiang Huai they knew?!
Only Song Xin was no longer surprised. With Jiang Huai, all his usual principles would become unprincipled when facing Tan Ming.
However, as a manager, Song Xin was still a little worried. She leaned closer to Jiang Huai and said in a low voice, “Although you’re stubborn and refuse to admit that there’s an indescribable relationship between the two of you, can you please restrain yourself? There are more than ten people here. There are too many people..”
