Over here, after Bao Ye left, Jiang Ruan didn’t idle either. After spending so ti playing with her cat at ho, she arranged to et with a famous asset investigator in the industry.
At the restaurant, Jiang Ruan was wearing a black dress, looking professional yet elegant, her hair tied in a low ponytail. She looked seriously at the man across the table: "So, what you’re saying is, there’s no problem with the assets of the company I’m currently with?"
"Yes, even if shareholders withdraw, it will only affect the company’s cash flow, without impacting other aspects."
Hearing this, Jiang Ruan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That’s good then."
"By the way, there’s sothing else I’d like you to help look into."
Jiang Ruan’s dark eyes were filled with caution.
By the ti they finished, it was already two hours later.
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
That afternoon, Sister Qin texted, saying to co to the company because Mr. Huang wanted to hold a eting with the company’s artists.
Jiang Ruan took a taxi to the company. She hadn’t seen Mr. Huang for a long ti, and he looked utterly weary, with none of his forr vigor.
"Little Ruan, you’re here." Seeing her, Mr. Huang greeted her with the sa enthusiasm as before.
Jiang Ruan nodded: "Mr. Huang."
To Jiang Ruan, Sister Qin was her ntor. Mr. Huang was one of her benefactors.
"I’ve heard about the company’s situation," Jiang Ruan said. "The boat will straighten when it reaches the bridge; Mr. Huang, take care of your health."
Mr. Huang laughed heartily: "Don’t worry, I’ve been in the entertainnt industry for so many years, what haven’t I experienced? It’s just a withdrawal of investnt, it can’t bring down."
Jiang Ruan clearly saw the smile didn’t reach his eyes.
Mr. Huang restrained his smile, sowhat helpless: "It’s just that finding other investors is a bit difficult at the mont."
"But rest assured, if the company really can’t hold on, I won’t let it burden you all."
"That’s also what today’s eting is about."
When Mr. Huang said this, it was as if he instantly aged ten years.
He had watched the company grow over so many years with his own eyes.
Now, it was at its peak.
Only he knew how much effort he had put in.
Suddenly, it was about to collapse. How could he accept that?
Jiang Ruan felt a pang of sympathy: "Mr. Huang."
At this mont, Jiang Ruan knew that anything she said would be redundant.
But she still offered a few words of comfort: "Don’t worry, we’ll work together and get through this tough ti."
These words did comfort Mr. Huang.
In recent days, Mr. Huang had seen the harsh realities of the world.
Seeing that Jiang Ruan didn’t take the opportunity to kick him while he was down and was willing to stand by the company, Mr. Huang couldn’t help but feel touched.
"Thank you, Little Ruan. Mr. Huang wasn’t wrong about you after all."
"Don’t ntion it."
After chatting for a few more monts, Sister Qin arrived, and the two went inside.
On the way, quite a few people weren’t working, and so gathered in groups discussing.
Sister Qin sighed: "There have been all kinds of rumors in the company these past few days. I heard the company might not make it, so many people are resigning."
Jiang Ruan was taken aback: "But the investnt hasn’t been withdrawn yet, has it? Why are they resigning already?"
Sister Qin smiled: "In this industry, everyone is very practical. Who would want to stay at a company that’s about to collapse? It could affect their resu."
"Have you seen Mr. Huang?"
Jiang Ruan replied: "Yes, he has a lot more gray hair now."
Sister Qin sighed: "It’s a significant blow to him."
"After all, the company is like his own child to him."
Jiang Ruan: "Yes."
As she thought of what Bao Ye had promised, Jiang Ruan considered ntioning it to Sister Qin.
But after thinking it over, she decided that once everything was settled and the contract was signed, Sister Qin would naturally know.
Jiang Ruan swallowed the words back down.
This ti, at the eting, all the company’s artists were present.
Hundreds of people, in the large conference hall.
Jiang Ruan had never attended a eting with so many people before.
She sat with Sister Qin in the front row.
Turning her head to look back, there were the company’s established actors and popular singers.
Everyone had different expressions.
Mr. Huang ca on stage to speak, reflecting on the company’s growth over the years, the growth of the artists, and the contributions made.
Then he explained the current situation of the company.
As he spoke, Mr. Huang couldn’t hold back his emotions; tears fell from the corners of his eyes: "Although this is the most difficult ti for the company, rest assured, the company will not shortchange anyone a single cent."
"I also hope everyone can endure this tough ti with ."
At that mont, so artists were dissatisfied.
One spoke up publicly: "If the shareholders withdraw their investnts, the company will just be an empty shell. How can there be any money to support all of us? The entertainnt industry is very costly."
"Aren’t you digging a pit for us?"
Jiang Ruan turned her head and saw it was a female artist who had been with the company for many years but had always remained lukewarm.
With her taking the lead, many dissatisfied artists also began to voice their concerns.
"Exactly, exactly, the company already has no money, why would we stay to be promoted? Are we supposed to spend our own money to buy resources and still share the profits with the company in the end? Mr. Huang, your idea of enduring hardships together is really sothing else."
