Chapter 250: First Encounter
Next morning, in Lin Zhizhi’s office at Glory World Entertainnt.
"Sister Zhizhi, I’m not late, am I?" Ning Xi had rested at her apartnt the whole day yesterday, and was pretty much fully recovered. It was only that she still looked a little wan, so today she had chosen to wear a trendy outfit with a bold combination of colors to brighten her skin, making her look young and energetic.
In front of the desk in the office, Lin Zhizhi as usual did not have a single strand of hair out of place. She wore a suit jacket and an A-line skirt in cool colors, and was working on so docunts. Seeing that Ning Xi had co, she sized her up first before raising her head. "No need to be nervous, it’s nothing important today, I just wanted to show you around the company before shooting starts tomorrow. Even if you normally won’t co to the company often, you still need to be familiar with the company’s basic departnt structure."
"Okay, thank you, Sister Zhizhi!"
"Let’s go."
Ning Xi nodded, and followed her out. With Lin Zhizhi’s guidance, she familiarized herself with each company departnt, and t a few of her new colleagues.
Whatever they thought inside, on the outside, everyone was polite to her.
Even though everyone tacitly understood that this was a battle between Glory World and Starlight, and Ning Xi was the company’s weapon in striking at Starlight, it was the undeniable truth that the company was prepared to nurture Ning Xi, so nobody wanted to court bad luck by harassing her during this critical period, when public opinion of her was flourishing.
"Tut, this Ning Xi is even better looking in person, no wonder Second Young Master likes her!"
"I have a feeling, as long as her EQ is not too low, she’ll definitely beco a hit!"
"That’s hard to say! Leng Manyun just left, do you think people will allow her to make it big so easily? Anyway, do you think she and Lin Zhizhi will get along? Doesn’t Lin Zhizhi hate those type of actresses the most, the ones who rely on their good looks to climb their way up?"
…
The company was actually pretty big, and Ning Xi followed Lin Zhizhi for more than an hour before they completed the tour.
As they were about to take a look at the film sets and recording studios behind the company, they unexpectedly ran into soone in the corridor.
"Yo! Isn’t this our Big Manager Lin? Finally stopped becoming a hermit? I thought you wouldn’t be coming back to the industry after your setback!" The woman speaking was around thirty years old. She wore sexy and trendy clothes. Her hair was in big waves, and she had exquisite makeup on. She was dressed up even more magnificently than any star.
Because she often appeared in newspapers and magazines, and she had seen her from a distance on production sets several tis before, Ning Xi instantly recognized that this was Su Yimo’s manager, Zhao ixin.
Faced with Zhao ixin’s provocative words, Lin Zhizhi’s eyebrows didn’t even twitch, and she said blandly, "With Sister ixin still working hard, how can we youngsters slow down."
"You…"Zhao ixin was pissed.
On the side, Ning Xi struggled not to laugh out loud. She hadn’t expected that Lin Zhizhi, who looked inflexible and severe, to have such a vicious tongue!
Zhao ixin ground her teeth and hmphed coldly. "Lin Zhizhi, I didn't think you would do well to begin with, but I can’t not admit that you have so skill, being able to raise Leng Manyun that plain nobody up to such a high level. But now…"
Zhao ixin deliberately paused, and glanced disdainfully at Ning Xi. "After Leng Manyun, you went and found yourself such a flower vase, who besides scandals and her looks, doesn’t have one good thing about her. I rember that you hate artistes who rely on their good looks the most. So? Have you fallen so low now?"
