Chapter 38: Planning To Open A Studio
The matter of Stardust Entertainment had been investigated and the subsequent results had been announced online. Stardust Entertainment had declared bankruptcy.
Zhou Lin went to jail and everything was pinned on his partner, Zhang Li. Zhang Li was mentally and physically exhausted. They had to compensate their partners with a large sum of money. The partners could not find Zhou Lin, the first person-in-charge, so they could only look for Zhang Li.
This was the result that Liang Xun wanted when he got Gu Yu to investigate Stardust Entertainment thoroughly. Zhang Li naturally couldn"t be bothered to look for Jing Yao when she was busy.
Jing Yao finally dared to turn on her cell phone. After turning it on, she blocked every Jing Family member"s number and then ate and slept at home every day. She lived a very leisurely life.
On this day, Zhu Ling brought her a proposal.
After reading it, Jing Yao was a little worried. "Lingling, is it necessary for an insignificant person like me to open my own studio?"
Zhu Ling said, "Who said that only big celebrities can leave the company and open their own studio? You have money now. Why go to a company? You"re oppressed and not free at all."
"But can we get a job like this?" Jing Yao was a little worried. There was another very important thing for celebrities to choose to sign a contract with the company, which was that the company would pull in resources for them.
"Definitely. Believe me, I"ve worked hard for so long and have some connections. It"s on me if you lose money. How about that?" Zhu Ling was a very ambitious woman. She entered this industry at the beginning for Jing Yao, but later on, she wanted to work hard and make a name for herself.
Jing Yao saw the determination in Zhu Ling"s eyes and smiled. "Alright, but it"s on me if you lose money. I have money now."
Zhu Ling smiled and said, "Aiyo, you"re a rich woman now. Do you want to keep me?"
Jing Yao knew that Zhu Ling was joking, but she still said seriously, "I"ll support you for the rest of your life."
She was telling the truth. When she first signed to the company, she was under a manager with several artists. For the sake of performance, that manager didn"t treat the artists under her as humans at all. Later on, Jing Yao got to know Zhu Ling. For some reason, although their personalities were completely different, they hit it off very well. After Zhu Ling found out about her situation, she resolutely took the manager"s license and brought her along until now.
Zhu Ling smiled and tugged at Jing Yao"s serious face. Her eyes were a little red.
Only a two-way relationship could last. Jing Yao always felt that Zhu Ling had sacrificed a lot for her. Actually, that was not the case. Zhu Ling had been surrounded by love since she was young, but she had never met anyone like Jing Yao. She would always remember anything you did for her.
Zhu Ling told Jing Yao the general plan. Before she left, she left a copy of the proposal for Jing Yao to read carefully later and ask her if there was anything she didn"t understand.
At night, Liang Xun returned home. After dinner, he thought that Jing Yao would go watch TV, but he saw Jing Yao coming out with a stack of doc.u.ments.
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows and sat beside Jing Yao. He leaned closer and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Jing Yao shrugged to the side uncomfortably. She realized that ever since Liang Xun got drunk previously, he would always move closer to Jing Yao, intentionally or otherwise.
"I told Zhu Ling not to sign with a company in the future and to open a studio. This is the proposal that Zhu Ling prepared."
"Workshop?" Liang Xun took the proposal from Jing Yao and flipped through it page by page. The proposal was very detailed, but there were a few loopholes. No matter how capable Zhu Ling was, this was a new field for her. It couldn"t be perfect.
"We might as well open an entertainment company," Liang Xun said to Jing Yao as he folded the loopholes.
Jing Yao shook her head without thinking. She glanced at Liang Xun and felt that she could not understand the thoughts of big bosses like them. Ordinary people prioritized stability when doing things, but big bosses thought of bigger things.
"I can help you," Liang Xun said seriously. "I can help you prepare the money and manpower."
"No, no, no." Jing Yao hurriedly shook her head. Seeing that Liang Xun had finished reading the proposal while they were talking, she pushed him. "Liang Xun, go do your own work."
Liang Xun looked helpless and moved to the side, but he just sat there without moving.
Jing Yao looked at him strangely. Usually, Liang Xun would go to the study to deal with work after dinner. Why didn"t he move today?
