Song looked at Guan Xi who was standing beside Xiao Jiuyan. He had received a notice earlier from Master Jiu's assistant saying that they would be bringing an aspiring actress to sign a contract with the company. He figured that she was the actress they were talking about.
"Is this is Miss Gu? She's really beautiful," Song praised.
"Yes," Xiao Jiuyan said.
Song was surprised as he did not expect Master Jiu to concern himself with the matters regarding the woman.
"Alright. Let's go upstairs so we can talk more comfortably about the contract signing," Song said graciously.
As impossible as it was, he wanted to get on Master Jiu's good side.
He was very cautious as he wanted to get everything right.
Guan Xi pushed Xiao Jiuyan while Song led the way to the elevator.
The man who had mocked Xiao Jiuyan just now had a frightened look on his face.
He had mocked Xiao Jiuyan because he was in a wheelchair. He got jealous that the newcomer might upstage him. He also heard them ask for President Song so he used that as an ammunition.
He didn't expect for President Song to personally welcome the man and fawn over him.
It was now obvious that the cripple had an extraordinary status. He was either rich or noble.
The man who mocked Xiao Jiuyan felt his legs go weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.
...
"Master Xiao Jiuyan, if Miss Gu wants to make her debut as a star we have prepared an a-level contract for her."
In the meeting room, Song handed the contract he had prepared beforehand to Xiao Jiuyan and explained its contents.
"An a-level contract is the best contract in our company. Our best actor, Jing Anli, is also under this contract. We will arrange for the best manager and the best resources to be given to Miss Gu. If there is a good script, rest assured, Miss Gu will be our priority."
"Of course, we will also give Miss Gu complete freedom. If she doesn't want to accept some of the scripts, we will not force her."
The a-level contract was a super luxurious treatment.
It wasn't a contract that was readily available to newcomers. In fact, even Jing Anli, had to work hard to be given this contract.
Guan Xi was very satisfied with this contract.
She knew that President Song was smart.
He knew that she was obviously close with Xiao Jiuyan so he was doing everything he could to get into his good graces through her.
She was the type of person who wouldn't say no to such a gracious offer just because of 'principles'. It was hard to make it in the entertainment industry so she was going to take all the help that she could get.
However, Gu Wenxi was not that type of person.
She had to react how the real Gu Wenxi would react.
"President Song, isn't this contract too good? I'm still a rookie. I feel like I don't deserve it."
"Miss Gu, rookies can be trained. When I saw you today, I was impressed by your beauty and I know that your looks alone will get you very far. I now know why Master Jiu thinks so highly of you."
President Song smiled and continued, "Miss Gu, you are completely worthy of such a contract. If you are not satisfied with it, you can let us know and we'll update it to your liking."
President Song's words were very cautiously chosen. In a few simple phrases, he had managed to praise her and also compliment Xiao Jiuyan's taste.
Guan Xi's initial assessment was right. President Song was indeed a smart man.
However, Guan Xi has to keep up the facade. With a troubled expression, she began, "But..."
"Just sign the contract."
Xiao Jiuyan interrupted Guan Xi. "If you don't like everything on it, just tell Song."
Naturally, since it was Xiao Jiuyan's order, she had to obey.
This was the one time that she was happy to follow his orders.
"Oh."
Guan Xi timidly nodded. "Okay, Master Jiu. I promise that I'll work hard."
When Xiao Jiuyan saw his wife's serious expression, his lips curved into the faintest of smiles.
"Okay."
