But... there are no ifs in this world.
Having her personally speak to Song Qiao was something she couldn’t bring herself to do because of pride, so she thought of her good friend instead.
Hearing the girl’s words, Song Qiao finally understood. It turned out that the girl was after the invitation from Huayi Group in her hands.
If Zhuo Silin hadn’t requested to switch to Li Xin that morning, maybe she would have considered taking Zhuo Silin along.
But there truly are no ifs in this world, many things cannot be redone, and it wasn’t just Ouyang Qian who knew she only had two artists in her hand, he also told her to just take Qin Zhe and An Ke.
What’s more, Lu Jingchen also knew she only had two artists in her hands, and Lu Jingchen favored Qin Zhe and An Ke as well.
Even if nobody opposed her bringing three people to the audition, she wouldn’t take Zhuo Silin.
For one, she had reviewed the movie’s information, and there was no role suitable for Zhuo Silin’s temperament.
Secondly... I’m sorry, but she has always been a rather unforgiving person. When others are making her life difficult behind her back, she saw no need to bring someone who disliked her.
It’s always been the rule in the company that if she didn’t manage her own artists well and they were actively switched to another agent, not only would she face a deduction in bonuses, but it would also hinder her promotion prospects significantly.
Brushing her hair behind her ear, Song Qiao smiled at the girl in front of her and said, "Didn’t Zhuo Silin tell you that it was her own choice not to have me manage her and that she requested to switch agents? Moreover, I can only take two artists with me, so... I won’t be taking Zhuo Silin!"
Song Qiao outright rejected the girl’s request without leaving any room for discussion.
The girl’s expression changed, and she suddenly became agitated, "Since you have two invitations, why don’t you just take Qin Zhe and Silin with you? In terms of family background and looks, Silin is much better than An Ke in your hands. The An Ke in your hands is worthless apart from a pretty face; her family is even heavily in debt."
"Bang!" A sound of something heavy hitting the floor was heard.
Song Qiao and the girl turned towards the source of the sound and saw An Ke and Qin Zhe dressed simply, standing not far away, the former looking pale with a thermos box at her feet, and the latter squinting slightly at the girl.
Seeing An Ke’s pale face, Song Qiao’s expression changed instantly. She turned to the girl in front of her and continued, "As I said, I will not take Zhuo Silin to Huayi Group’s audition. Zhuo Silin is now under Li Xin, and if I’m not mistaken, you’re under her management too, right? Didn’t she teach you how to properly speak to your elders?"
"You..." The girl’s face changed drastically, red and white interspersed across her face, wanting to say something but in the end, she said nothing. After glancing at An Ke, she left in a huff.
Song Qiao did not continue to deal with the girl, but turned and walked to An Ke and Qin Zhe, bent down to pick up the dropped thermos box, handed it to An Ke with a smile, and said, "Are you two looking for me? Come in, I have something to discuss with you too."
This time, many colleagues had slowly started to enter the office. Although the scene had unfolded just now, everyone acted as if they hadn’t seen it.
After all, this wasn’t the first time they had encountered this kind of situation.
An Ke hurriedly took the thermos box from Song Qiao, her face showing a trace of melancholy, so unlike her usual self. She moved her lips but ultimately remained silent.
Song Qiao knew that the girl’s words had hurt An Ke. For a moment, she couldn’t think of anything to comfort her, so she directly took them back to her own office area.
Song Qiao sat at her desk with An Ke and Qin Zhe standing beside her. She looked at both of them, "You both know about Huayi Group, right?"
Qin Zhe hummed an acknowledgment, and An Ke quickly nodded her head.
Song Qiao took out two files about the new movies from Huayi Group from her bag and handed them to the two, saying, "This is the movie Huayi Group is planning to shoot. Someone there thinks both of you have great potential and has sent an invitation for you to audition and see." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel fire.net
Both of them exchanged glances, and An Ke’s eyes brightened.
Song Qiao continued with a smile, "Take a look at the introduction of this movie, then go back to your dorm to change clothes. Meet me downstairs in the company in half an hour, I’ll take you there, understood?"
Song Qiao smiled satisfactorily. She thought she might have to explain further, almost forgetting that they were both very smart people.
Focusing on An Ke, she thought for a moment before saying, "An Ke, on the path of an artist, you still have a lot to learn. Often, you don’t need to care so much about others’ opinions about your existence, because those people are just jealous of you. In my opinion, both you and Qin Zhe are very talented artists. If you really want to prove yourself, you need to work harder in the future, learn more things, and when you are successful, people will naturally respect you, understand?"
