Sheng Tang listened to Gu Jiahui’s words and was not angry.
Fu Qingcen was already famous, even though she was only two years older than Sheng Tang. She didn’t go to university, debuted at 17, and had been navigating the entertainment industry for nearly a decade. Her status in the film industry wasn’t something Sheng Tang could compare to.
To have their resources overlap, to make her take the fall for Fu, she would have to reach a similar height first.
If Sheng Tang reached Fu Qingcen’s level, Gu Jiahui wouldn’t be able to control her much.
In the future, who will be in charge is still unknown.
Fu Qingcen was tied to the company for twenty years, while Sheng Tang only had four years left. Maybe after four years, Sheng Tang would become successful and won’t renew the contract, which won’t cause any real conflicts of interest.
"Your considerations are yours, boss." Sheng Tang got off his desk, walked over to open the window and then turned on the air purifier, "What I’m talking about are my demands. Think about it."
After saying that, she left the study.
The next day, Sheng Tang went to the company.
Artists rarely come to the company, who isn’t busy?
Most people in the company didn’t know her, and she didn’t know them much either.
In the conference room on the sixth floor, Sheng Tang saw top manager Ke Fei.
She met Ke Fei alone, which was arranged by Gu Jiahui.
Although Gu Jiahui said those things, he still gave her priority first.
Ke Fei was a medium-built man, slightly skinny, with fair skin. His hair was a bit long and could be tied into a small ponytail at the back, dressed fashionably and decently.
Just by looking at him, others wouldn’t think he was an artist manager but rather a somewhat famous star.
His attire, mannerisms, all carried a touch of idol-like elegance.
But he was quite serious.
He sat there without a smile, expressionless, looking at Sheng Tang, without showing any emotions.
He got straight to the point: "President Gu has talked to me. You’re an excellent graduate from the film academy, which is indeed a big plus. Your personal charisma is good, acting is also ideal.
Wu Zhengting doesn’t intend to renew the contract; you should have already found out. Since you’re sincere about cooperating with me, tell me your advantages, why you think I would choose you."
Sheng Tang: "I’m President Gu’s girlfriend."
Ke Fei: "..."
His face, like a mask, showed a trace of different colors. It wasn’t surprise nor sarcasm, but a tiny bit of interest.
"Anything else?"
"Other things, I tell you now, you might not believe. I say I’m an obedient artist, self-disciplined, punctual, don’t mess with scandals; professional, and with solid professional training background, these all need time to determine their truth.
I tell you now, you may mentally cross me out and then tell President Gu I’m not suitable. So the only thing I can tell you is I can sweet talk to President Gu.
You can tell President Gu I’m bad, and so can I. If you don’t choose me, I’ll hold a grudge." Sheng Tang said slowly.
Ke Fei: "..."
He still didn’t show any displeasure on his face.
After a while, he raised his eyes to look at Sheng Tang: "Women in the entertainment industry, the more bitchy they are, the more successful they can be. Your first step was shown quite well, shameless enough, knowing to try everything."
His words sounded like curses, but Sheng Tang knew he was being very sincere.
He was praising her qualification.
"So can we cooperate?" Sheng Tang asked again.
Ke Fei: "Fu Qingcen is also in contact with me. She isn’t President Gu’s girlfriend, but President Gu places all his bets on her. Your sweet talk can’t surpass her. Give me one reason to choose you over Fu Qingcen."
"Fu Qingcen renewed her contract with the company, signed for twenty years." Sheng Tang said.
Ke Fei raised his eyebrows: "So what?"
"If someone is confident enough, they wouldn’t sell twenty years to the company. She seeks for something beyond the entertainment industry. I’m different, I don’t have wild thoughts of becoming Mrs. Gu, so I have the drive.
Would you prefer to choose a conservative or an ambitious one, that’s your choice." Sheng Tang said, "Mr. Ke, the company has more than one top manager, I’m not your only choice, and you aren’t mine."
