“That’s right,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded.
“Miss Jiang, frankly speaking, I have already seen the video of Young Master Lu that was shared on the Internet. In fact, if the young master condition is already that bad, I am afraid that we will not be able to plan this matter at all. You are a top artiste in the entertainment industry, so I am certain that you should be able to understand where I am coming from right now. This is just too big of a risk since there are so many things that will not be within our control at all,” Wang Jing replied Jiang Yuning in a truthful manner.
“Sister Jing, I went to meet Young Master Lu today. Jingqi’s condition is not as bad as it looks like in the video. I spent the day playing with him and teaching him some dance moves and I discovered that Jingqi really has a natural talent for dancing. Otherwise, I would not be so eager to recommend him to you!” Jin Mingchen quickly explained at this time. “Moreover, I do not have any issues communicating with him at all.”
“We are an agency. There are plenty of people out there who dream of becoming an artiste because they want to get famous. We really do not need to take so many risks in this matter…”
“Miss Wang, there are some things actually worth taking the risk for. You should know very well that Young Master Lu is a very precious member of the Lu family and you will be doing an act of kindness for the Lu family by training Jingqi and teaching him how to dance, whether your agency has the opportunity to plan his debut in the future or otherwise. The Lu family will always be indebted to you and your agency. Secondly, you should know I will be the one providing and paying for all the resources for Jingqi. He will not cost your company any money and in the future, if there is really any possibility for Jingqi to make a debut, then I will definitely invest more money and provide more resources for Jingqi without asking for any profits in return. You can incorporate all these terms and conditions into the written contract. All I am asking for is just one simple requirement—that is, for you and the agency to ensure that you take care of Jingqi, look out for him, protect him, and sign a confidentiality agreement so that you will not reveal this matter to the public,” Jiang Yuning said as she continued persuading Wang Jing using all the excellent conditions that she could think of.
Wang Jing fell into contemplation as soon as she heard Jiang Yuning’s words.
She had many concerns even though she was tempted to accept Jiang Yuning’s proposal.
After all, from the video that she had seen, it seemed as though the condition of the young master was not that simple.
She did not want to get involved in a mess that she would not be able to clean up in the future.
At this time, Jiang Yuning carefully observed Wang Jing’s expression and she knew that Wang Jing was tempted even though she could not make up her mind immediately.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning said one last sentence: “I can allow Mingchen to bring Jingqi over to your agency in two days’ time to meet up with you. If you think that you are still unable to accept Jingqi and sign him under your company after meeting him, then I really have nothing else to say.”
“Let me meet him first,” Wang Jing replied Jiang Yuning in a careful manner.
“Alright then. I hope that you will be able to keep this a secret between us, Miss Wang.”
“You can be rest assured that my lips are sealed,” Wang Jing replied in a polite manner as she shook hands with Jiang Yuning.
“I will ask Vera to follow up with you on future details. Let me address you as Sister Jing as a token of my gratitude. In fact, Guangying Media would also be able to cultivate and train Jingqi, and I am certain that Guangying Media would definitely do a good job. However, it seems like Jingqi really likes and admires Mingchen. Since I have already heard about your professional abililty, I thought of contacting you immediately. Anyway, even if we fail to sign the contract, we can still be friends. What do you think?”
Wang Jing smiled as she raised her cup at Jiang Yuning in response.
Wang Jing was surprised that a twenty-five-year-old girl such as Jiang Yuning could actually be so courageous and confident, and this was the reason why she might actually be willing to take the risk.
Jiang Yuning had already established a name and reputation for herself in the entertainment industry. No one would dare to ignore her or bully her openly anymore.
The name Empress Jiang was known to everyone in the entertainment industry.
After they were done discussing business, Jiang Yuning relaxed and continued acting in a childish manner alongside Jin Mingchen.
Both of them continued bickering amongst themselves and when Wang Jing saw this, she forgot how dangerous Jiang Yuning actually was.
“I don’t care! Sister Yuning, you are the one who released the picture of me sending you the link of the kiwi fruit on your social media account. Right now, everyone is making fun of me and posting pictures of me eating a kiwi. I want you to get justice back for me!”
“Yes, yes, yes. I know that it is all my fault. I will get justice back for you soon.”
When Wang Jing heard this, she wondered to herself if Jiang Yuning was going to push Jin Mingchen up to the hot search again.
In fact, the entertainment industry was really a magical place. Some people tried all sorts of means just to get on the hot search but to no avail.
However, things were different when it came to Jiang Yuning. It seemed as though she could casually appear on the hot search, sometimes several times a day, without putting in any effort at all.
The four of them continued having their meal in a happy mood. Aside from talking about Lu Jingqi at the start, Jiang Yuning did not mention anything else about the entertainment industry. After all, it was already past office hours and Jiang Yuning knew that everyone was already tired and would like to enjoy a relaxing meal in their free time.
After returning to the Lu family mansion, Jiang Yuning logged into her social media account immediately to give Jin Mingchen his innocence back.
@JiangJianglovestheScenery: The little boy sent me the wrong link. It seems as though he does not want me to buy him kiwis, but this instead. I do not understand why.
Attached in her caption was a picture of a bicycle.
At this time, the netizens could not help but laugh out loud again.
This was because one of Jiang Yuning’s fans immediately made a gif of Jin Mingchen riding a bicycle before posting it on the Internet.
When Jin Mingchen saw the posts and pictures on the way back to the city, he was speechless and he could not stop himself from laughing out loud.
After seeing the post, Wang Jing turned around and said to Jin Mingchen, “Jiang Yuning is really amazing.”
Jin Mingchen was dumbfounded.
“Do you really think it is so easy for anyone to cue and interact with the netizens the way that Jiang Yuning does on her social media account? The reason why she is using her social media account to interact with you is because she wants to help increase your popularity and she wants the netizens to recognize you,” Wang Jing patiently explained the situation to Jin Mingchen. “I am really looking forward to working together with her.”
The entire entertainment industry and even the public already knew that Jiang Yuning had very powerful public relations skills and methods.
If Wang Jing really had the opportunity, she would really like to observe and learn something from Jiang Yuning.
“Then you must really take the effort to get to know Jingqi. He is really one of the most talented people that I have ever seen!”
Jin Mingchen might be a narcissist but he would not brag about something that he did not believe in himself. When Wang Jing saw how excited he was, she did not fight him anymore. “Alright then. I promise you that I will definitely take the effort to get to know and understand this talented young boy, okay?
This time, Jin Mingchen was finally satisfied with Wang Jing’s reaction.
Therefore, he continued with his interaction with Jiang Yuning on his social media profile.
[Is Jiang Yuning mentally retarded? Why is she trying to ruin our brother’s reputation again?]
[Are you the retarded one? Do you know how much traffic and popularity Empress Jiang can bring to your brother? Foolish!]
[What are you talking about? This is obviously a very loving interaction between Jiang Yuning and Jin Mingchen. In fact, I have already saved the gif of Jin Mingchen for future use. Hahaha…]
[Hahaha, how can you say that Sister Yuning is blacklisting your brother? The picture of Jin Mingchen riding the bicycle is simply priceless! It seems as though he will never be stuck in traffic!]
[Jiang Yuning is trying to ruin your brother’s reputation? How I wish that Jiang Yuning will try to ruin my idol’s reputation! It seems as though my idol can never make it to the hot search no matter how hard he tries!]
Jin Mingchen subsequently replied to Jiang Yuning’s post.
@JinMingchen: Alright then, if we are hurting one another then…bring it on. [Gif of Jiang Yuning picking up all sort of things on the ground]
@JiangJianglovestheScenery: The little boy sent me the wrong link…
When Jiang Yuning saw that Jin Mingchen had already responded to her post, she quickly put her cell phone away. This was because today was in fact her last day of vacation before she joined the crew of <Yan Huasu> for training to film the drama. Once she began filming, she would be gone for at least four months.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning planned to pick Lu Jingzhi up from work since it seemed as though she had not appeared near the national defence building in a very long time anyway.
However, when Jiang Yuning was just about to take out her cell phone to send Lu Jingzhi a text message after parking her car at their secret meeting spot, she discovered someone squatting at a corner holding a camera.
What was going on?
Who was he waiting for?
Jiang Yuning continued hiding in the dark as she carefully observed the paparazzo who was hiding next to the flower bed. As soon as Lu Jingzhi’s car drove out of the national defence building, the paparazzo ran out of his hiding spot and starting running after Lu Jingzhi’s car as he took several pictures of him.
Jiang Yuning suddenly felt cold sweat all over her body.
What the h*ll was going on?
