Chapter 80: I Ignored the Cooperation with You
“IM?”
The pen rotating on Song Qinghuan’s fingers fell on her textbook. The person over the phone politely repeated who she was and why she made the call.
Song Qinghuan picked up the pen with her left hand. The black pen was flying quickly as she rotated it between her five fingers. This was a favorable way for Song Qinghuan to practise flexibility of her fingers in her spare time. She listened carefully, and she said, “Ten o’clock tomorrow morning? All right, thank you.”
“Okay, see you tomorrow.”
After hanging up the phone, Song Qinghuan took off her pen’s cap and wrote down in her notebook the address of IM office in the Greater China region.
After that, Song Qinghuan drew a circle on the address. Then she wrote a name, Qiu Meng. Looking at that name, Song Qinghuan smiled, “I almost forgot it. I need a broker too.”Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Song Qinghuan took out her cell phone. She did not make a call, but she edited a text message to a private detective she had worked with.
IM was a luxury among luxuries. Each of its spokespersons was one of the most influential superstars in the world. The domestic entertainment companies were eyeing it up and wanted to be included in the interview list for its spokespersons. Unfortunately, only a foreign superstar would have the chance.
As it was at the top of the international luxury food chain, Song Qinghuan thought she received a scam call at first. But Song Qinghuan got to knew it was true because of the professionalism the caller showed.
Although it was only a spokesperson of a product, not the whole Greater China region, she would be regarded as a superstar in the entertainment industry because of IM brand.
Although the caller said it would be an interview, Song Qinghuan was confident that she could not fail easily as long as she was selected into the interview list.
Thinking it over clearly, Song Qinghuan searched online for the information about IM in the Greater China region, and then quietly pinched herself.
Calm down.
Although the appointment was at 10 a. m., Song Qinghuan arrived at the company building of IM’s headquarters in the Greater China region at 9:30 am. The receptionist was the girl who contacted Song Qinghuan on the phone. She checked the list and took Song Qinghuan to the meeting room on the 21st floor.
Before they had entered the half-open meeting room, they heard some people, men and women, quarreling with each other.
Through the glass window of the room, Song Qinghuan saw several famous domestic actresses, as well as their gold medal brokers.
At that time, two actresses, who did not get along well according to the media reports, were mocking each other. This kind of competition for resources was very common in the entertainment industry, but it happened only in private. What a shame as they did that in public.
The girl who received Song Qinghuan was obviously used to it. It was suddenly quiet in the meeting room as soon as she knocked at the door.
“Miss Song, please.” The receptionist invited Song Qinghuan to come in, and then left with a folder in one of her hands. It was obvious that there were other actresses to come, and she had to go downstairs to receive them.
The people in the meeting room thought Song Qinghuan was another actress who came to compete for the spokesperson with them as they heard the knocks at the door. Seeing Song Qinghuan at the first sight, the two young actresses mistook her for Jing Yu, the international film queen!
But their surprise turned to disdain when the receptionist called her ‘Miss Song’.
As actresses in the entertainment industry, they knew something about the big news made by Song Qinghuan, because their assistants or brokers might say a few words even if they did not pay attention.
“I thought it was a great star. IM has a too low standard. Is a fake star with plastic surgery qualified for the interview?”
After the receptionist left, the most formidable actress immediately attacked Song Qinghuan.
Song Qinghuan fell her sight on her face. The costume dramas had been popular in recent years. She was Lan Xi, a so-called “costume drama goddess”, one of the four emerging female stars. She was the number one actress supported by Kaiyue Entertainment as some actors and actresses left after the turmoil.
As a costume drama goddess, she had a public image of an outgoing neighboring sister.
Song shook her head. She would make a move if she had a neighboring sister like her.
Ignoring her taunt, Song Qinghuan chose a vacant seat and sat down calmly. Ignoring her is the biggest taunt to such a person.
Song Qinghuan was known in the entertainment circle as the school babe of Xinghan Music Academy, a musical talented girl, but as Song Qinghuan had no “background”, and she did not sign any brokerage company, the people subliminally regarded her as a little new actress without a backer.
It was common to bully a new comer in the circle. The actress, who had quarreled with Lanxi, sat with her broker without saying anything.
Song Qinghuan supported her chin with her hand and looked at her. Xiang Feifei, ranking the first among the four emerging female stars, had numerous homebody fans with the title of “sexy goddess”.
She was also a Kaiyue’s acteress before, but job hopped to Huanyu last year. She was now Huanyu’s number-one actress.
Song Qinghuan raised her eyebrows. If she was right, both of them were former actresses of Kaiyue. They were ‘ladybros’ in public, but she did not know that their relations were bad like that in private. She touched her chin and thought the water in the entertainment circle was really deep.
But Song Qinghuan narrowed her eyes as she thought of that woman.
She did not know who would come to the interview today. Song Qinghuan got a glass of water and found that Lanxi stretched out her legs and tried to trip her over. Song Qinghuan pretended not to see it, but stepped on her stretched feet.
“Ah!” Lanxi screamed. “Watch your steps!” As the top actress of Kaiyue, Lanxi quickly became a “good sister” of Song Shuyao’s after the “princess”‘ of the new master signed a contract with the company.
As good sisters, they talked about the new comers in the circle some time. As a new comer enjoying great popularity, Song Qinghuan was the one they talked about a lot, and they soon found a unified position. After seeing Song Qinghuan today, Lanxi decided to kick the competitor out, whether for her selfishness, or for their own interests!
She could not defeat Xiang Feifei, but what if a little newcomer?
Ridiculous!
However, Song Qinghuan was too deceptive with her harmless young appearance. She would never let anyone step on her head in this life as she ended with a miserable death halfway in her previous life as a doormat. She pretended to slip and spilled the water in her hand onto the face of Lanxi.
“Haw-haw!” Behind came the laughter of Xiang Feifei and her broker.
As unexpected, Lanxi was dazed, and her broker was astonished. Song Qinghuan stepped back calmly. Looking at the foot of Lanxi, she shrugged and said in an innocent voice, “I am sorry for not cooperating with you according to your screenplay to trip over. You may live in a Mary Su drama and does not wake up, and I hope to help sober you up with this glass of water.”
“You’re welcome.” Song Qing laughed. Her peach-like eyes was tantalizing.
