Chapter 492: The Company Won’t Raise Ingrates
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The topic of plagiarism was sensitive, and she owned an entertainment company. In less than a day, this matter spread to CG.
Especially since this matter had a huge impact, a portion of the company’s activities had stopped today. This made the artistes gather together and set up a time to watch the show.
“I already found it strange previously.” The leader was a female artiste called
Song Han.
Song Han crossed her arms and stood in the crowd, speaking eloquently, “She knows how to write novels. She’s beautiful and is the boss of a company. How can she be good at so many things?
She pursed her lips and didn’t hide the jealousy on her face. However, everyone was listening to the main point, so no one cared what expression Song Han had at this moment.
“Now, the plagiarism has been dug out, right?” She snorted.
After the person beside her heard this, she immediately echoed, “The first two books were domineering and well written. Didn’t many people wonder about the third book before…”
“It switched so dramatically to a completely new genre. She probably doesn’t have anything else to copy.” Someone else spoke up in support.
At this moment, four to five people were gathered in the corner and talking one after another. They thought highly of themselves and pieced together most of the so-called “truth”. They even nodded firmly and felt that what they said made sense.
“Hey, to be honest, I came here previously because of the better resources.
Song Han raised her head and spoke again.
She nudged the person beside her with her arm. “At this rate, we won’t be frozen in the future, right? I heard that the Three Thousand Realms production team have stopped operating recently—”
The deliberately hesitant voice landed in everyone’s hearts and they couldn t
help but feel their hearts skip a beat.
The person who became nervous was Shi Qian. An uneasy expression immediately appeared on her face. It was obvious that she had been affected by Song Han’s words.
Which celebrity did not want to earn money?
Now that something had happened to their boss, as the company’s largest project, if Three Thousand Realms stopped filming, it would definitely be a big problem. As for the consequences, there was no need to imagine much about it.
“Don’t mention it. I went out to do a show today and was scolded by a few fans,” a man said.
He laughed bitterly. “They said that I should get out of here as soon as possible.
I should hurry up and run away to another company to develop before the matter becomes serious. Otherwise, I’ll be finished sooner or later.”
“I entered the company to sing my own songs. Qu Xi and Qu Xiu have released a few alb.u.ms, but I haven’t even seen a shadow of a song written for me. Indeed, people can’t be compared.”
“Then why don’t you talk about An Nuo? She’s good friends with Murong Qiao and has a lot of resources. She doesn’t have to worry about not having a job. She’s busy every day and even acted in Wulin Universe. She’s very popular
now…”
These words stirred up everyone’s inner thoughts and they vented their dissatisfaction one after another.
They were all artistes in the same company. Why were they still practicing day after day in the company while others were given all kinds of privilege without much effort?
Be it An Nuo, Qu Xi, or Qu Xiu, or even the few artistes who were related to Murong Qiao previously, they were all thought to have used their “relationship” to get to where they were now.
They were clearly words to vent their frustrations, but in the end, they were forcefully drilled into the hearts of many people.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in unison and understood what the other person was thinking.
For the sake of their future… there was nothing shameful about jumping ship. Song Han had been observing everyone’s reactions. When she saw this, she was delighted and couldn’t help but curl her lips. She looked like he was not worried about her future at all.
“Why aren’t you practicing? Why are you gathered here to chat?” Suddenly, a voice interrupted.
It was Qu Xi and Qu Xiu. The two of them came to the practice room to get their things. Unexpectedly, they didn’t see anyone practicing when they came in. They only saw a few people gathered here sneakily, talking about something.
The person asking was Qu Xi. She wanted to come over and listen to the practice out of curiosity.
However, after asking this, she realized that the atmosphere didn’t seem to be as cheerful as she thought.
Qu Xi scratched her cheek with her fingers, her tone a little awkward and hesitant. “…Sorry. Did I disturb you?”
She looked at them hesitantly and began to suspect that it was her fault.
“No, no.” The people beside her hurriedly shook their heads.
Qu Xi and Qu Xiu were personally brought in by Murong Qiao. Even if they intended to jump ship and leave, they definitely did not dare to tell these two people.
Qu Xiu, who was standing at the back, glanced at them coldly. “Let’s go. We still have songs to record.”
“Oh right, the alb.u.m is about to be released…” Qu Xi patted her head in frustration.
The alb.u.m was about to be released.
When the other people heard her unintentional words, it stabbed their hearts like knives.
Some people were so popular that they only needed to sing a few songs once in a while. Whereas for them, they worked to the point of exhaustion but only had a few fans.
The more they thought about it, the angrier they became.
Qu Xi didn’t notice at all and left happily with her Big Brother, leaving Song
Han, Shi Qian, and the others standing on the spot.
Song Han pretended to wave her hand leisurely. “In any case, I don’t intend to stay in such a company anymore. The company’s future won’t be much better if the boss is like this.”
With that, she turned around and left without saying anything.
The remaining hesitant people looked at Song Han’s departing figure and recalled what Qu Xi and Qu Xiu had said just now. They immediately made up their minds.
Shi Qian strode forward and chased after Song Han.
“…Sister Song Han,” she called out softly.
Song Han’s back was facing her, and a faint smile appeared on her lips, as if her scheme had succeeded. Then, she turned around and pretended to look at Shi Qian coldly. She raised her eyebrows and waited for her to continue.
Shi Qian bit her lip. “From the way you spoke just now, you must have found another company, right?”
This was also the reason why she had chased after her.
“I don’t want to stay here anymore too,” she added.
With this, Song Han directly pulled several artistes with her to the company she wanted to go to.
“You promised me that when I go to your place, you’ll let me play the female lead. I’ve pulled in five to six people for you.” Song Han dialed the number and said to the person on the other end. Her gentle smile made one’s heart soften. On the other end was Song Han’s future manager, Brother Han. “Of course. I won’t mistreat you if you come.”
“It’S just a female lead role. Your strength is worthy of something better. I have two dramas reserved for you now…” Brother Han smiled.
These words. .h.i.t Song Han’s heart.
The smile on her face became sweeter. Little did she know that Brother Han had picked up the call and was sitting casually, as if he didn’t take it to heart at all.
There were many people like Song Han. The other companies took this opportunity to find someone to stir up the atmosphere, causing everyone in CG Company to be in a panic recently. They all had the thought of changing companies.
“As of today, 39 people have terminated their contracts and left.” Jiang Chi closed the exchange form and reported the results to Murong Qiao.
She wasn’t surprised.
Murong Qiao twirled the fountain pen in her hand thoughtfully. “Who are they?”
“Song Han, Shi Qian, Li Xinai…” Jiang Chi reported their names one by one. After looking carefully and not finding any familiar names, Murong Qiao nodded in satisfaction.
She leaned back in her chair. “Coincidentally, you told the public relations to post the clarification later.”
“If they want to leave, let them leave directly,” Murong Qiao instructed with a smile, but there was no smile in her eyes, only coldness and calmness. “The company doesn’t raise ingrates.”
As for the scolding from the outside world, it didn’t matter if it lasted a little longer.
On the other hand, the opportunity that the other party had given her was so precious that she couldn’t help but to use it..
