Chapter 279 Zhao Rong Crisis
"Xiaotian, I may have to come back later tonight. If you are bored at home alone, I'll go to the streets to stroll. Now the Spring Festival is approaching, and the evening scene in Shanghai is still very beautiful." In an ordinary apartment in Shanghai, Zhao Rong, who had just had dinner with Li Tian, had to hurry up and dress up because she had to rush to attend a welcome party held by Oriental International Entertainment, the "leader" of the Shanghai entertainment industry.
"All right, don't worry, I've been flying around these days, and I feel a little tired. I just take a good rest now and don't worry about me." Li Tian arrived in Shanghai in the afternoon. After winning so many awards in Changsha this time, Zhao Rong naturally had to celebrate him well, but Li Tian also knew that Zhao Rong was also a busy person recently. After a sumptuous dinner, she asked her sister to go to work on her own affairs.
"Well, then you have a good rest. I have booked a plane ticket to City L at noon the day after tomorrow. I will definitely be able to rush back to celebrate New Year's Eve with my parents." Before leaving the door, Zhao Rong turned around and explained it and hurried downstairs. Her agent Zhou Jiali was already driving there.
"Xiao Rong, why did you come here so late? The cocktail party is about to begin. Today, the well-known figures in the Shanghai entertainment industry will basically be present. Meeting a few more will be of great benefit to your future development. You should pay attention to it later..." Zhou Jiali nagged while opening the car door for her.
"Sorry, Sister Zhou, my brother flew from Changsha to Shanghai this afternoon. I just had dinner with him to celebrate his achievements, so time was delayed for a while." In the entertainment industry, the actor's agent is like a nanny, who has to take care of everything from business operations to daily life. Zhao Rong is also used to Zhou Jiali's "nagging". After all, most of the time she is for her own good.
"Oh. Is Mr. Li Tian in the apartment? Can you invite him to the cocktail party together? If he attends it, the cocktail party will definitely add a lot of color." Zhou Jiali made a small plan in her mind. Li Tian just won the three major sports awards in Changsha, which was so hot that it was so hot. If he and Zhao Rong appeared together in public, they would definitely become the focus of the entire venue, which would definitely be a great help to Zhao Rong's popularity. There were many entertainment media at the scene at this cocktail party.
"Xiaotian hates the most is such a social and social party. If you can, try to reject it as much as possible. Even some invitations from the State Sports Commission have refused. He will not join in the entertainment industry like us. Moreover, he just flew back to Beijing from Germany a few days ago, and rushed to Changsha without stopping. After attending the award ceremony, he flew straight to Shanghai. He didn't have time to rest. Let's forget about attending the party." Zhao Rong understood Li Tian's personality and directly rejected Zhou Jiali's idea.
"It's such a pity!" Zhou Jiali sighed regretfully. You should know that Li Tian is not something that anyone can invite now. The invitation letters for various domestic evening parties, cocktail parties and entertainment programs are at least one foot thick every month, but he has never been seen showing up on these occasions. If he can be invited to attend this time, it will not only be beneficial to Zhao Rong personally, but also a huge increase in face to her company.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Zhao Rong walked into the most famous Jinmao Grand Hyatt Hotel in Shanghai with Zhou Jiali. Now it is a gathering of stars. Not only major entertainment companies, media companies, and senior executives of well-known companies in Shanghai attended the event at the same time. Many domestic first- and second-tier actors and singers also appeared. This time of year is a great time for them to attract sponsorships and film contracts, so they naturally cannot be missed easily. Even many entertainment reporters plan to seize the last chance of this year to get more news. Although Zhao Rong has become famous recently, she is still a newcomer after all, and her popularity and influence cannot be compared with many "big brands" on the scene, so naturally she cannot arouse the interest of reporters.
However, many people are interested in her "talented woman". After meeting many top figures in the circle under Zhou Jiali's introduction, Zhao Rong finally found a quiet corner to rest for a while, while Zhou Jiali continued to socialize with other colleagues. But shortly after sitting down, a few annoying "flies" immediately surrounded her. For this kind of cocktail party, of course, these young men who do nothing all day like to join in the fun.
"Miss Zhao, can you ask you to dance?" Fly No. 1 tried to act as if she was a gentleman, but in Zhao Rong's eyes it seemed like a toad in a tuxedo, croaking and screaming non-stop.
"I'm sorry. I'm very tired now and just want to have a quiet rest."
"Ms. Zhao, I think your image is very suitable for our Jiahua International requirements. Recently, our company plans to shoot an advertisement. Maybe we will have a great opportunity to cooperate. Why don't we come out for a meal together one day and everyone will study it carefully?" Fly No. 2 leaned over without hesitation.
"Sorry, please talk to my agent about cooperation." This trick has long been bad in the movie. At best, it can only deceive those "stupid girls" who are full of thoughts.
"Miss Zhao, what a coincidence, I can see you here." At this time, a young man of twenty-five or six years old also came over with a kind smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Liang!"
"Brother Liang, you are here too!" After seeing the young man, several "flies" came forward to say hello, which was more respectful than seeing their own father.
"I think Miss Zhao is also very tired. Why don't you talk about anything later and let her have a good rest." The young man turned around and smiled and said to several fly men, but a cold light flashed in an instant, which made the people on the other side feel trembling.
"Mr. Liang is right, then we won't disturb Miss Zhao's rest, don't disturb her." In front of the young man, these second-generation ancestors seemed to have lost their usual spirit and immediately dispersed in shame.
Zhao Rong turned a blind eye to this because she knew very well that the young man who looked kind and handsome in front of her was her biggest trouble. This person was named Li Liang, the deputy general manager of Oriental International Entertainment Company, who held the cocktail party today. He was able to sit in such a high position at a young age not because of his amazing ability, but because of his deep family background, his uncle was the boss of Oriental International Entertainment Company, and his father was even more amazing. He had been in the position of mayor for five years, and he was one of the top major figures in the city's power class. I heard that his grandfather was also a senior leader in central ministries and commissions, and had a considerable influence. With such a tough backstage, Li Liang was naturally unscrupulous and gradually became the leader among these young men in the city.
Although he looks gentle and kind, everyone in the circle knows his ruthlessness, so those domineering young men on weekdays will look trembling and trembling when they see him. Therefore, many people secretly call him "Wolf Young Master", not only because he is like a ruthless wolf, but also because of his own lust. There are no less than twenty girls in his hands using soft and hard methods over the years. Faced with such a powerful family, girls who suffer losses can only swallow their tears of pain.
Three months ago, Li Liang was shocked when he saw Zhao Rong, so he often went to the company to harass her. As an agent, an "old man" who has been in the entertainment industry for nearly ten years, Zhou Jiali naturally knew Li Liang's character, so she reminded Zhao Rong to not get involved in this wolf at the beginning, otherwise she would definitely suffer a loss. However, the Qingyun Music Company where Zhao Rong is located can only be considered a small business in Shanghai. Many times, it is necessary to reliably rely on a leader like Oriental International Entertainment to get business. Therefore, Zhao Rong couldn't avoid Li Liang's entanglement, so she had to ignore her. Until the past month, Li Liang seemed to have disappeared and never appeared in front of her again, which made Zhao Rong feel relieved, but she didn't expect that this disgusting guy appeared again tonight.
"Miss Zhao, your old friend hasn't seen you for so long, so don't you invite me to sit down?" Li Liang stared at Zhao Rong with his eyes shining.
"Mr. Li was joking. Zhao Rong, an ordinary girl who didn't know anything, was not qualified to be friends with Mr. Li. And today you, Oriental International, are the masters here, so I dare not take over the main points." Zhao Rong said lightly.
"Ms. Zhao is so polite. Since she is the owner of this place today, Li Liang respects Miss Zhao here. Miss Zhao won't even refuse to give her a glass of champagne!" Li Liang took two glasses of champagne from a waiter's tray behind him and handed one of them to Zhao Rong.
…”Thank you.” After a moment of silence, Zhao Rong still took over the champagne. Although Li Liang was just a vain bucket, he was still a senior executive of Oriental International. Considering the interests of Qingyun Company and Mr. Hu’s care for him over the past year, Zhao Rong did not want to cause trouble to the music company.
After drinking champagne for only a few minutes, Zhao Rong felt something was wrong. Not only could she not raise any strength on her body, but her whole head also became confused. Seeing Zhao Rong's reaction, Li Liang next to her immediately showed a strange smile.
"Miss Zhao, Miss Zhao..." Li Liang patted Zhao Rong on the shoulder gently.
