CH 30
There was a brief silence in the lounge, and everyone knew what it meant to let Wen Lin apologize now.
Wen Jianing dressed neatly, called Wen Lin, and then planned to return to the company. He feels that he needs to talk to Manager Huang. If Lei Xing’s positioned their artists in the company to sell themselves, then even if it is a breach of contract, he should make an early decision to find another way out for himself.
He knows that this incident is very unpleasant, and if it is not handled properly, he may also be affected, but sometimes people can’t help but want to be firmer. He really despises people like Wu Dongqin and He Chaoshu.
Before arriving at the company, Wen Jianing received a call from He Chaoshu. After hesitating, he directly hung up the call. His reputation has plummeted anyway, and the phone call will not make it any worse. They are going to talk about it when he gets to the company.
In the end, when Wen Jianing arrived at Lei Xing, he didn’t see He Chaoshu and Wu Dongqin at all.
He wanted to see Huang Gang, so he inquired about Huang Gang’s secretary and said that there was a temporary board of directors today. As the general manager of Lei Xing, Huang Gang was invited to attend the board of directors.
He didn’t see the person he wanted to see. After a while, Wen Lin who is still feeling depressed also came.
Wen Jianing stayed with him and talked in the small lounge where they usually stay. Soon after, Yi Nan hurried in through the door.
Yi Nan saw the two of them and said, “Have you heard the news that there is a change in the top management of Lei Xing?”
Wen Jianing and Wen Lin glanced at each other. It was obvious that the two of them had no way to know the news.
But Yi Nan is different. After all, Yi Nan has some good family background. He came in and closed the door and said, “I heard that the board of directors wants to dismiss Huang Gang. If nothing happens, a new manager will take office in two days.”
Wen Lin looked surprised, but even if he didn’t understand the reason, he still vaguely felt that it had something to do with what happened to him yesterday, so he asked, “Is it because of what happened yesterday?”
Even Yi Nan could not answer this question.
Wen Jianing frowned. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Lu Jinlang’s number, but the voice prompt said that the other party had turned off and might be on the plane at this time.
Putting away the phone, Wen Jianing said to Wen Lin: “Let’s wait until the news is confirmed.”
It turned out they didn’t wait for more than two days. The next day, the whole Lei Xing is in commotion as if they have dropped a bomb, because the new manager had come, and Huang Gang seemed to have packed up his things overnight and left.
Wen Jianing arrived at the company a little late that day. As soon as he arrived, someone told him that the new manager was already swearing.
The manager scolded no one else but Wen Jianing’s and Wen Lin’s agent, He Chaoshu. Wen Jianing didn’t know exactly how he was scolded, but he heard people say that He Chaoshu was scolded so harshly that he didn’t dare to say a word.
After he was finished scolded, He Chaoshu was asked to pack up and leave.
He ran into Wen Jianing in the corridor and left without even looking at him twice, lowering his gaze with his belongings in his arms
Wen Jianing looked at him and said nothing. He didn’t have the habit of beating an already drowning dog.*
Then, the assistant of the new manager informed Wen Jianing that the manager wanted to talk to them face to face.
The new manager’s name is Bai Shengzhe. He looks gentle and very smart. He interviewed several people respectively and treated Wen Jianing politely. Manager Bai did not mention the reasons for the change of Lei Xing’s top management. He just asked Wen Jianing to talk about the development path he desired, and said that Lei Xing would give sufficient support to its artists and try to protect them.
Wen Jianing knew that Lei Xing’s board of directors had made the decision to replace Huang Gang. It seemed that it really was decided just the day before yesterday, but Lei Xing moved so quickly that Wen Jianing had to think more.
But anyway, it is a good thing for Wen Lin.
Bai Shengzhe said that if investors want to withdraw their capital, he can withdraw, but the TV series will still be filmed. They will just need to look for investment again, so they should just prepare and don’t have to worry about these things.
At this time, Wen Jianing thought of He Chaoshu’s phone call yesterday morning. It seems that it will no longer trouble him anymore.
That night, Wen Jianing called Lu Jinlang again.
The call was connected, but unfortunately it was not Lu Jinlang who answered the phone. It was Lu Yunan who answered the phone. He said that Lu Jinlang was filming and had no time to answer the phone, so he could convey it to him if he had anything to say.
Wen Jianing said: “It’s nothing, tell him to be careful not to work too hard.”
After hanging up, Wen Jianing thought he would call Lu Jinlang when he was free, but he didn’t expect that Lu Jinlang never called him back.
Lu Jinlang did not take the initiative to contact him, so Wen Jianing did not bother him, and did not call him again.
Bai Shengzhe, who took office, hired a new agent soon after He Chaoshu was dismissed. There is a famous one in the whole entertainment circle, once cultivated a diva, now the diva married and rested, this agent whose contract has expired is now poached by Lei Xing.
The new agent’s name is Zheng Xin. He was hired by Li Xing at a high price. At this stage, it can be said that his value is higher than Wen Jianing and Wen Lin combined. Zheng Xin didn’t come to Lei Xing alone either. There were three or four students or assistants under him, and he arranged them to work as assistants for Wen Jianing and the others.
The assistant that Zheng Xin arranged for Wen Jianing was called Wen Tinghuan. He said she was an assistant, but she was actually a student who followed Zheng Xin. She was not in charge of Wen Jianing’s clothing, food, housing and transportation like Lu Yunan, who was next to Lu Jinlang.
More often than not, Zheng Xin is the one who coordinates the arrangements and she takes care of the actual work.
The first time Zheng Xin talked with Wen Jianing, he simply said to him, “The TV drama of “The Strange Fate of Hairpin and Phoenix” should be played well.”
Wen Jianing understands what Zheng Xin meant. This TV series has the top broadcasting platform in Starlight, plus it has the influence of the original work. Even if it does not become popular in the end, it should not be a problem to make a few people famous.
Zheng Xin is a gentleman who speaks and behaves very gently. He wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and treats people very amiably.
He said to Wen Jianing: “I watched over all the videos of your participation in the competition. I believe you will become popular after this TV series. I can trust my vision.”
Wen Jianing said, “Thank you.” He was unfamiliar with Zheng Xin in the past and was only an acquaintance, but he had heard of Zheng Xin’s ability.
Zheng Xin patted him on the shoulder, “You can ask anything you want, you can talk it to Tingting, or you can tell me personally.”
Wen Jianing smiled.
Zheng Xin stretched out his hand: “I look forward to working with you, future Emperor Superstar.”
Wen Jianing held his hand and knew that he was flattering and wooing, but this kind of words would be very useful for individuals, not to mention that he had confidence in himself.
He said, “I want to stand higher than Lu jinlang.”
Zheng Xin smiled upon hearing the words, “It’s good to have a goal.”
After that, Zheng Xin asked him not to care about the company’s affairs and concentrate on preparing for the shooting of “The Strange Fate of Hairpin and Phoenix”.
Wen Jianing also began to earnestly figure out the script and roles.
Compared with the original novel, the script has a lot of changes. The main scene is added to the grievances between the brothers Xiao Zongyi and Xiao Zongyan.
Xiao Zongyan, played by Wen Jiaying, is a man with a very deep mind. After his elder brother Xiao Zongyi succeeded to the throne, he eliminated many of his brother’s men, except for his younger brother who was loved by his mother, so his younger brother stayed in the capital and often walked in the palace. In order to save his life, Xiao Zongyan was pretends to be crazy and dumb all day long, but he secretly entangled the important officials to rebel.
The screenwriter did not want to make the story look too thin, so he added a lot of controversies in the court and expanded the original novel with more than 100,000 characters.
Lei Xing moved fast, and soon the new funds were in place. After the preliminary work preparations are over, Wen Jianing and Wen Lin will rush to the filming base to officially start filming the TV series.
The day before leaving for the filming location, Wen Tinghuan personally came to help Wen Jianing pack his things. She is a capable woman, and just in her 30s this year. She is still unmarried, and her character is probably inherited from Zheng Xin. She speaks swiftly, and at the same time she is very caring about the other party.
When she opened the wardrobe door to help Wen Jianing collect his clothes, Wen Jianing hurriedly came forward and said, “I’ll do it.”
Wen Tinghuan said: “It’s all right you have to get used to this. Your time will be precious in the future. It is impossible to do everything by yourself, and you don’t have to feel embarrassed with me. I got my salary, and this is what I should do.”
Wen Jianing is really embarrassed, but it’s only because after occupying Ke Xinhang’s body, he is used to hide some personal things.What he’s embarrassed about is that he’s afraid that Wen Tinghuan will see his personal belongings, rather than bothering Wen Tinghuan to do things for him.
Wen Tinghuan’s attitude is very professional, which makes Wen Jianing very satisfied.
But he still thinks he can clean up his underwear.
Wen Tinghuan thought this boy in his early twenties was embarrassed, so she did not force it. When she heard someone ring the doorbell, she took the initiative to help Wen Jianing open the door.
When the door opened, Wen Tinghuan was surprised, because the person standing outside the door was Lu Yunan. There are not many people in Lu Yunan’s circle who don’t know him. That he is Lu Jinlang’s personal assistant. As long as you see Lu Jinlang, you will be able to see Lu Yunan.
In the past, Wu Dongqin and He Chaoshu knew a little about the relationship between Lu Jinlang and Wen Jianing, but they didn’t publicize it everywhere. So Zheng Xin and his subordinate Wen Tinghuan naturally don’t know.
The moment she saw Lu Yunan, Wen Tinghuan’s mind was spinning.
Lu Yunan was also surprised, because he knew Wen Tinghuan, but he didn’t know that Wen Tinghuan was now following Zheng Xin to join Lei Xing.
Wen Tinghuan was quick to respond. She immediately understood that Lu Yunan would not be looking for her. She looked inside and saw Wen Jianing coming this way when he heard the sound, so she asked, “Looking for Xinhang?”
Lu Yunan did not answer immediately, but asked: “Why are you here?”
At this time Wen Jianing had seen Lu Yunan, and he asked, “Yunan? When did you come back?”
Lu Yunan did not answer, but looked at Wen Tinghuan
Wen Jianing saw this and said, “Ting jie** is now my agent.”
There is a difference between an agent and an assistant, and Wen Jianing naturally wants Wen Tinghuan’s position to be higher.
Hearing Wen Jianing say this, Lu Yunan understood in an instant. Since Wen Tinghuan now has such a relationship with Wen Jianing, it is certainly impossible to hide the things between Wen Jianing and Lu Jinlang from her, so he said directly: “Mr. Lu is back. He wants to see you.”
Wen Tinghuan unconsciously widened her eyes and looked at Wen Jianing.
Wen Jianing was taken aback, “Now? But I have to pack my things and go to the film and television base tomorrow.”
Lu Yunan was also a little embarrassed when he heard this. He said, “Otherwise you can call Mr. Lu and say something.”
Wen Jianing also hesitated a little, and then said to Lu Yunan: “It’s okay, I’ll go there first, and come back later to clean up.”
At this time, Wen Tinghuan had guessed something more or less. She thought about it and said to Wen Jianing, “Just go, I’ll pack up and take your things directly to the car. Call me again tomorrow. Remember the plane is at 10:30 a.m. and don’t be late.”
Wen Jianing then said to Wen Tinghuan, “Okay, thank you, Ting jie.”
He went back to the room and made sure to put some things such as Ke Xinhang’s diary in the drawer and lock it. The computer also had a power-on password. He believed Wen Tinghuan would not touch it. As for other things, it’s no different from ordinary young men. He took a bag and left with Lu Yunan.
Before leaving, Wen Tinghuan also told him not to forget his ID wallet.
Wen Jianing nodded, smiled and said, “I haven’t forgotten about it, thank you Ting jie.”
He then followed Lu Yunan to the underground parking lot and found that Lu Yunan was driving a nanny car today, but Lu Jinlang was not in the car.
Lu Yunan explained: “Mr. Lu came back today to attend a business event. It will end around 9 o’clock. We will pick him up now.”
Wen Jianing has no objection.
Lu Yunan couldn’t help being curious, and asked, “Xinhang, have you changed your agent?”
Wen Jianing said, “Yes, now Zheng Xin is coming over to Lei Xing.”
Lu Yunan nodded, “Zheng Xin is very good.”
Wen Jianing didn’t say anything. He still had some doubts in his heart about the sudden change of Lei Xing’s top management.
Lu Jinlang attended the business event at the Global Commercial Center in the city center. Lu Yunan parked his car in a secluded corner of the parking lot. Lu Yunan asked Wen Jianing to wait in the car for a while before getting off.
Wen Jianing took out his mobile phone and played for about 15 minutes. The door of the car was opened, and Lu Jinlang came up and sat beside him.
Lu Jinlang is still wearing a suit and tie.
The first thing he did when he got in the car was to stretch his hand to loosen the tie around his neck, and then pulled Wen Jianing over to kiss his lips.
Wen Jianing sat on his lap, hugging his shoulders.
But when he felt Lu Jinlang stretch out his hands to unzip his pants, he couldn’t help but say: “Do we just meet to have sex?”
Lu Jinlang’s movements stopped all of a sudden. He said, “Are you going to use such crude language to describe our relationship?”
“Then?” Wen Jianing said, “Having sex/making love when we meet, which do you think sounds better?”
Lu Jinlang buried his head on his neck and laughed softly. Then he unzipped the zipper of his jeans outside, and stretched out his hand to pull the thin cloth of his underwear, and said, “Good boy.”
Wen Jianing is wearing the new underwear that Lu Jinlang left him that day. Lu Jinlang replaced all of his underwear, but he did not insist on changing it back, and gradually got used to the current style.
He doesn’t know why, Wen Jianing couldn’t help blushing when Lu Jinlang said “Good boy”. It is strange that he is not a simple teenager without much experience, but sometimes people are inexplicably poked into the heart by some words. Just like now, he is very grateful that the dark environment here makes Lu Jinlang unable to see him blushing.
After hearing Wen Jianing’s vague complaint, Lu Jinlang didn’t continue to do what he had just done. He said to Wen Jianing, “Shall we go on a date, have dinner, watch a movie, and then go to bed?”
Wen Jianing agreed, “Okay.”
Only two minutes after Lu Jinlang got in the car, Lu Yunan also sat in the driver’s seat. He opened the small partition window and asked Lu Jinlang: “Where Mr. Lu want to go?”
Lu Jinlang hesitated and said, “How about we go to Lanlu?”
He also has his worries. For example, it is impossible for Lu Jinlang to take Wen Jianing’s hand to eat and watch a movie in the downtown pedestrian street. He can only go to some private places.
Wen Jianing said, “No, I have to catch a plane tomorrow morning. It’s too far from the airport.”
Lu Jinlang could only say to Lu Yunan, “Then let’s go home.”
