Chapter 407: Chapter 405 Eating Crab_1 Chapter 407: Chapter 405 Eating Crab_1 As soon as this announcent was released, the truth ca out instantly.
There were no more curses, and instead, many people began to feel sorry for Xia Ningxing.
This girl really had it tough!
It was already the second ti she was wrongly believed to be a murderer!
My heart goes out to her!
Nevertheless, so people were still curious, how could Madam Zhao have misunderstood Xia Ningxing as the killer of her son?
And what exactly was the relationship between these several people?
But all these were private affairs of the Lu Family from the Capital City, all suppressed by the old man; the dia couldn’t dig anything up, and outsiders had no right to know.
Even so mbers of Giant Star Entertainnt were not very clear on the details.
However, everyone was tactful, and if Xia Ningxing didn’t talk about it, they didn’t ask.
After all, could they, re employees, pry into the boss’s private life?
“Does anyone have anything else?” After the issue was resolved, Xia Ningxing looked up at the employees below: “If there’s nothing else, the eting is adjourned.”
Lu Fan stood up and looked at Xia Ningxing: “I do have sothing else. Lawyer Qin’s law firm has organized everyone’s contracts. Please review them, and if there are no problems, go ahead and sign.”
As he spoke, he distributed the prepared contracts to everyone from his briefcase.
Although everyone present had a relationship with Xia Ningxing, private was private, and official was official, so they still had to go through the process, putting it down in black and white.
This way, if there was a problem later, it could be sorted out clearly, otherwise, the company would be the one to suffer.
Tao Tao took the contract and, without even looking, flipped directly to the last page and signed her na.
Xia Ningxing looked at her with a hint of speechlessness: “Aren’t you afraid I’m having you sign an indenture contract?”
This girl really was too carefree!
“Not afraid,” Tao Tao shook her head and said seriously to her: “Even if it is an indenture contract, I would sign it without hesitation. Xiaxia, you’ve helped so many tis, and you saved again not long ago. What does it matter if I really sold myself to you?”
The gratitude Xia Ningxing deserved could never be repaid in her lifeti.
What Xia Ningxing hated most was emotional manipulation because it made her want to cry.
She lifted her eyes and couldn’t help sighing, “Ah, the problem with is just that, I have too much personal charm! Look at this, soone is even ready to sell themselves to ! Tsk tsk!”
Tao Tao: “…”
If she had known Xiaxia would boast like this, she would never have said that!
Next, Luo Xiaohua also signed the contract without checking it.
Xia Ningxing was the one who saved her from misery, so even if there were traps in the contract, she would accept them, not to ntion, she trusted Xia Ningxing’s character; she would never do such a thing.
Even though she was now a capitalist!
Others did the sa.
Only after signing did they all begin to open and read the content.
When they saw that earnings were split fifty-fifty with the company, they couldn’t help but be stunned.
“Xiaxia, are you out of your mind, how can you split the money fifty-fifty?” Tao Tao was the first to speak, clearly disapproving.
Lin Sisi, as Xia Ningxing’s cousin, couldn’t help speaking up when she saw her squandering family resources: “Bao’er, I heard from my friend that artists usually split with the company seventy-thirty or, at best, sixty-forty, even the first and second-tier artists split forty-sixty!” (I’m not clear on this, don’t take it seriously)
But now they were splitting fifty-fifty with the company, which was even better than star treatnt.
Xia Ningxing, a veteran who had been in the entertainnt industry for over a decade, was obviously aware of this.
But she wanted to give these veterans generous treatnt.
Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “I’m giving you a higher percentage. Aren’t you all happy yet?”
“I’m afraid you’ll lose money, Xiaxia,” Tao Tao sighed. Who wouldn’t want to earn more money? But training an artist requires the company to spend a lot of money upfront. She was worried that doing this might lead to spending more than earning in the end.
“Don’t worry, I’m a businesswoman; how could I make a loss-making deal?” Xia Ningxing lifted her chin, with the tone of a capitalist, and continued, “And I’m not giving such preferential treatnt to every artist. The terms for new signees will follow market rules.”
Now everyone understood that this preferential treatnt was specifically for them.
“Thank you, boss!”
Everyone bowed in gratitude.
“If you really want to thank , then train yourselves well and make a lot of money. Talking sweet now is useless!” Xia Ningxing hooked her lips, then picked up the script Lu Fan had just given her, “Alright, nobody has any more questions, right?”
Everyone shook their heads: “No.”
“Then the eting is dismissed!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Ningxing was the first to run off in a flash.
Tao Tao watched her retreating figure and couldn’t help but blink, teasing everyone, “Tsk, Xiaxia is definitely going on a date!”
“How can you be so sure?” Lin Sisi and Ruan Ruanruan, among others, couldn’t help but look at her curiously.
Tao Tao pointed towards the window, “Because Lu Tingli’s car is parked downstairs, ah!”
“…”
Looking down, everyone saw that Lu Tingli’s car was indeed parked below.
After going downstairs, Xia Ningxing got straight into his car.
Tao Tao guessed right; Xia Ningxing was indeed going on a date.
Today, Lu Tingli had booked a private room at a restaurant.
They had thought it would be a sweet day, but just as the car was halfway there, a small commotion occurred up ahead.
A middle-aged man was pleading with a beer-bellied man.
Lu Tingli glanced at the scene with disinterest, and was about to take a detour when Xia Ningxing stopped him, “Lu, wait a second. Don’t drive away yet; I see soone I know.”
Lu Tingli was the type to listen to his wife, so he imdiately stopped the car.
Thinking of the “soone I know” she ntioned, Lu Tingli narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the two n ahead.
Soon, he recognized the middle-aged man as Xu Tian.
Xu Tian was the director of Xia Ningxing’s very first film after she had crossed over.
So many years had passed, and he had reached the age of maturity. His face was filled with the vicissitudes of life and whipped by the passage of ti, clearly indicating that the years hadn’t treated him kindly.
He looked very different from the spirited Oscar-winning director he had once been.
At that mont, Xu Tian was being shoved around by a man with a beer belly who looked like a nouveau riche, “How annoying can you be? Haven’t I already rejected investing in your disaster movie? Why are you looking for again? Get lost!” the man with the beer belly yelled at him.
Xu Tian bore the humiliation, trying hard to squeeze out a smile, “Mr. Cheng, there are no disaster movies in our country’s film market right now. If you are the first to break ground, you’re sure to make a huge profit. Please give a chance, and give yourself a chance too. Reconsider investing in it. Besides, I have studied overseas for several years, and I have enough confidence that I can make this movie a success!”
After his first collaboration with the young lady Xia Ningxing had taken off, he took the money and went abroad, devoted himself to learning about film techniques, all for the purpose of coming back to his ho country to make a respectable disaster movie and to bring his late wife’s last screenplay to the screen.
However, contrary to his expectations, he approached countless investors but was t with rejection every ti.
The reasons were all the sa: fear of losing money.
