"From an entertainment company." Gu Chenan approached, and Su Qianmo whispered a reminder before releasing her hand from the phone.
"Ms. Su, are you still there?" The voice on the other end of the line came through again.
Su Qianmo switched the call to speaker and placed the phone in front of Gu Chenan, saying, "I'm sorry, the signal was bad just now, and I didn't catch that."
"No problem." The woman repeated, "I am from the Magic City Aile Entertainment Company, and I would like to inquire about the contact information of the leading actress in your company's advertisement."
"If we do sign a contract with her, we will also pay your company a referral fee."
Hearing this, Su Qianmo whispered to Gu Chenan, "Should we agree?"
Gu Chenan glanced back at Liu Mingrui and nodded, "Agree for now."
Su Qianmo nodded and spoke into the phone, "Alright, please wait a moment. I'll have her agent contact you."
The woman on the other end of the line sounded delighted, "Thank you so much, Ms. Su. If you ever need any artists in the future, feel free to ask, and I can give you a friendly price."
After hanging up, Su Qianmo put away her phone and asked with some confusion, "Are you really going to let Mingrui sign with that entertainment company?"
Gu Chenan shrugged, "Let's ask her first. If she doesn't want to, I won't force her."
"You're not afraid I'll really become a celebrity?" Liu Mingrui stood up from the sofa, crossing her arms with a fierce expression.
Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow, "Why should I be afraid?"
Liu Mingrui frowned, pouting, "Think carefully, aren't you afraid I'll look down on you in the future?"
"Well..." Gu Chenan spread his hands, "No, not at all."
"Why?" Liu Mingrui was puzzled.
Gu Chenan chuckled, "Because I know you very well."
"You, you..." Liu Mingrui was momentarily at a loss for words, pursing her lips, "You're quite perceptive."
"Should I call them back?" Gu Chenan took out his phone and asked.
Liu Mingrui wanted to say something but hesitated, eventually waving her hand impatiently, "Do what you want, why ask me?"
"Heh, sometimes you're quite stubborn." Gu Chenan smiled faintly and dialed the number from Su Qianmo's phone.
The call was picked up instantly, indicating the other party was waiting by the phone.
"Hello, I hear your company is interested in signing my artist?" Gu Chenan spoke calmly.
"Yes, yes, yes, may I ask how you are addressed?" The other party quickly asked.
"I'm Mr. Gu." Gu Chenan replied flatly.
"Mr. Gu, nice to meet you. Yes, you're right, we are interested in signing your artist. May I ask what her name is?"
"Well..." Gu Chenan hesitated, "Let's not disclose that for now. Tell me about your company, what's the contract duration, and how is the revenue split?"
The other party paused, then laughed awkwardly, "Mr. Gu, the details need to be discussed in our company. I can't make that decision."
"Send me the address, and we'll come by when we have time."
"Sure, just a moment." After a brief pause, the woman on the other end said, "Mr. Gu, the address has been sent. We sincerely look forward to your visit."
After a few polite exchanges, Gu Chenan ended the call.
"Let's go." Gu Chenan nodded to Liu Mingrui.
"Where to?"
"Let's talk in person." Gu Chenan stretched.
...
Meanwhile, in the Public Relations Department.
"Lao Zhang, you were the one I got along with the best when I was in the company. You have to help me with this."
Zhang Hao, the PR manager, sat at his desk, talking on the phone with Sun Wei.
But upon learning the purpose of Sun Wei's call, he felt a bit troubled. Sun Wei wanted him to ask for the phone number of the leading actress in the advertisement.
This was clearly for Zhenhua!
If he really asked, wouldn't that be betraying Caiying?
However, Sun Wei not only appealed to their friendship but also promised a reward if he could get the leading actress's contact information.
Zhang Hao's education was not high; before joining Caiying, he had faced numerous rejections. He would be eliminated in the first round of interviews for better jobs, let alone becoming a department manager.
Caiying was different; they did not look down on him because of his education and provided him with a platform for fair competition.
He also managed to stand out among his peers and eventually became the PR manager.
Caiying had given him a chance to prove himself.
Without Caiying, he might have been working some menial job or tightening bolts somewhere.
To make him betray Caiying, which had given him such an opportunity?
"You want me to betray Caiying?" Zhang Hao clenched his teeth, his fists tight, and he spat out each word, "You! Have! To! Pay! More!"
"Great!" Sun Wei on the other end of the line was delighted, "Money is not a problem. Just get me that contact information as soon as possible."
After hanging up, Zhang Hao closed his eyes and let out a long breath, "Man struggles for wealth, birds die for food. Caiying, I'm sorry."
With that said, Zhang Hao felt a sudden sense of relief, as if he had a get-out-of-jail-free card.
Even the thought of the reward promised by Zhenhua made his eyes light up.
It was just a contact number, simple!
Asking the stunning model directly might not be appropriate, but asking her agent should be fine!
Although he didn't like that agent, making money wasn't shameful.
However, the agent always liked to stay in Ms. Su's office. If he wanted to talk to him, he'd have to do it when Ms. Su was out.
Zhang Hao moved his neck, opened the office door, and prepared to seize the opportunity.
But at that moment, he saw Gu Chenan leading Liu Mingrui out of Su Qianmo's office.
He was overjoyed.
This is fate!
Just as he was thinking about how the agent liked to stay in Ms. Su's office, he unexpectedly came out!
It seems agreeing to Sun Wei's request was the right choice; even the heavens are helping me!
Zhang Hao quickly closed the office door and hurried after them. As Gu Chenan and Liu Mingrui were about to enter the elevator, he quickened his pace and ran over.
"Wait, wait."
Gu Chenan turned around upon hearing the call and, seeing it was Zhang Hao, asked with some confusion, "Is something the matter?"
Zhang Hao looked around and, seeing no one else, whispered, "Do you want to take on a business deal?"
"Business? What kind of business?" Gu Chenan was puzzled; he didn't understand what Zhang Hao meant.
Seeing Gu Chenan's half-understanding, Zhang Hao frowned, "Of course, it's a big deal!"
Gu Chenan: ?
