Chapter 17 The old lady is not as picky as you when buying vegetables
Xia Anruo was stunned by Chu Ze's sudden confession, her rosy little mouth opened in surprise, obviously this was beyond her expectations.
"No, no, no, no, how old are you?" She waved her hands in a rare panic.
"Twenty." Chu Ze said calmly.
"You, you are three years younger than me. Our ages are not suitable. I don't like people younger than me."
I wonder if you are still considering this issue?
Chu Ze originally wanted to make the other party give up by confessing his feelings. If he succeeded, it would be no loss. If he was rejected, it would be a good excuse to get rid of the entanglement.
I didn't expect that this woman actually took it seriously.
It's so funny, this Pu Xin Jurchen guy, she didn't even want to be in a relationship with you in the first place.
"I think it's just right for a girl who is three years older than you to be rich." Chu Ze continued to say with difficulty.
He thought Xia Anruo was very interesting like this.
"Do you understand me?" Xia Anruo calmed down a little.
"I don't understand." Chu Ze shook his head.
"Then is it appropriate for you to confess to a girl you don't know?" Xia Anruo asked again.
"As long as she's pretty."
"Are you thinking about shit?"
"Then there's nothing to talk about." Chu Ze spread his hands.
"Don't even think about it."
"Then don't even think about writing a song."
"Okay, you're cruel. Just wait for me." Xia Anruo gritted his teeth angrily, uttered a harsh word like an elementary school student, then got up, opened the door and left.
Chu Ze watched Xia Anruo's figure disappear from his sight before he withdrew his gaze.
Tsk, there’s nothing to see of those white legs.
He wondered if he was being too pretentious. Writing a song was a piece of cake for him. As long as Xia Anruo didn't tell anyone, he wouldn't be easily framed.
And if I am willing to write songs for her, maybe I can really win her over in the future.
Alas, the pattern is small.
……
Brilliant Entertainment.
In the vice president's office, a beautiful young woman with short hair threw a stack of reports in front of the middle-aged man in a menacing manner: "Is this the result you promised me? You spent so much money to hire a group of internet trolls, and the public opinion you stirred up ended up doing good for An Ruo. Isn't Mr. Zheng, the president of Guanghui Entertainment, afraid of being laughed at?"
Zheng Lei picked up the report and took a look at it. It contained data about Xia Anruo's new song. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Who would have thought that Anruo would get such a fine song from nowhere? It was really unexpected."
"So what are you going to do about what you promised me? Are you just going to let it go like this?" the woman demanded.
"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future." Zheng Lei threw the report aside and smiled.
"We didn't seize this great opportunity, and An Ruo took advantage of it to turn the tables. What other opportunities will we have in the future?"
"Xu Ya, you are after all An Ruo's senior. Do you have such a deep hatred between you and a junior? Do you have to be so anxious to ruin her reputation?" Zheng Lei was a little amused.
Xu Ya in front of him can be considered a veteran first-line singer. Neither her qualifications nor her popularity can be compared with Xia Anruo, the new first-line singer.
It's really embarrassing for you, a senior, to always try to trip up a junior. "If it wasn't for her, would my sister have fallen to this point? You promised me that you would get An Ruo, so I broke the contract and switched jobs from Xinghua. Is that what you promised me now?" Xu Ya gritted her teeth when she mentioned her sister.
"As for your sister's matter... forget it. Since I promised you, I will naturally do it." Zheng Lei wanted to persuade you a little more, but thought it was pointless.
It would be a huge benefit to their company if they could bring An Ruo down.
"What else can you do now? Do you want to create some scandal?" Xu Ya asked Zheng Lei.
"Now that An Ruo is at the height of her fame, it would be meaningless to fabricate some scandals or resort to some trickery."
"Are you ready?"
"One word, wait!" Zheng Lei leaned back in the boss chair and said confidently.
Xu Ya frowned and was about to say something when Zheng Lei continued:
"As a professional, you should know better than me the quality of An Ruo's new song 'Legend', right?"
“It’s of a very high standard. Even if it were put into any of my previous songs, it would be among the best.”
"So, if An can come up with a song of this caliber, can he come up with a second or third song so easily?"
Xu Ya was not stupid and quickly understood what Zheng Lei meant.
"If her next new song can't keep up with the standard of this song, it's only a matter of time before she's criticized. We can then take advantage of the opportunity to make a fuss about it."
Xu Ya felt that what he said made sense, and she suppressed her anger reluctantly: "Okay, I'll believe you again."
……
On Xinghua's side, Xia Anruo quickly walked back to her office, pushed the door open, and sat down on the sofa with a sad face.
When the young assistant Xu Min saw Xia Anruo coming back, he hurried to the water dispenser to get a cup of warm water, and then carefully placed it on the coffee table.
Her keen intuition told her that Xia Anruo seemed to be in a bad mood again today.
So this time she didn't use hot water to make tea as usual, otherwise she might get burned again. Last time, she lost her salary...
I’m afraid someone will die this time.
After a while, Liao Qing also pushed the door open and came in: "An Ruo, why are you walking so fast? How are you?"
"Neither of them works very well." Xia Anruo rubbed his forehead.
"I think the four songs the company just received are not bad. Are you not satisfied with them?" Liao Qing couldn't help but frowned.
"Although it's not bad, it can only be said to be a good song, and it's far from being a masterpiece." Xia Anruo sighed.
"No, you plan to make every new song you release a masterpiece?" Liao Qing was also helpless. "In the past two months, the company has collected more than 20 songs for you, and you are not satisfied with any of them. If you continue like this, I'm afraid others will have opinions about you..."
Because of the popularity of the new song "Legend", Xia Anruo has received rave reviews from music critics, and her popularity is also rising. The company is naturally not stupid, and seeing this situation, they quickly struck while the iron was hot. The boss personally made the decision and arranged to release several new singles for Anruo as soon as possible, and preparations for a new album have also begun in full swing.
This time, the company mobilized a lot of connections, contacted many big-name producers, and was generous with the funds. This generosity caused people below to talk about it, and they felt that the company was trying to push Xia Anruo to become the new number one sister of Xinghua.
After all, apart from Xu Ya, the top singer of Xinghua who was poached by Guanghui Entertainment before, no other artist or singer in the company has ever enjoyed such treatment.
Moreover, if it were other singers, the company would have been secretly happy about spending resources to sing your song. Unlike Xia Anruo, she is still picky.
I wasn’t satisfied with any of the twenty-plus songs.
Even the old lady is not as picky as you when buying vegetables.
