Chapter 71: Enthusiastic General Zhao (Ch 71)

After entering the office, Qi Jia followed Chen Yuwen to greet Mr. Zhao.

“Our Jiaxing’s hero is back. Don’t stand there. Come, come, sit down.”

Mr. Zhao stood up from his boss chair enthusiastically and invited Qi Jia and Chen Yuwen to sit on the sofa together. His attitude was completely different from last time.

Because, when he went to the headquarters to report on his work a few days ago,

The president not only expressed high praise for the amazing achievements made by the branch under his leadership,

Moreover, on behalf of the board of directors, he painted a big pie for him. If he could lead the branch to train Qi Jia into a top-notch actor, then the position of vice president of the company would be his.

Therefore, Qi Jia is now an absolute lucky star for him!

The three of them sat down, and Mr. Zhao first gave Qi Jia some empty praise for his performance.

Then the main course began.

“Qi Jia, I came to you this time because I have good news to tell you. A few days ago, I went to the headquarters to report on my work.

I mentioned your performance to the president, and he was very satisfied, so he decided to give you a cash reward of 500,000 yuan.”

“In addition, starting today, your contract will automatically be upgraded to a second-tier top-tier contract, and the corresponding treatment and share will also change accordingly.”

Qi Jia was very happy to hear what Mr. Zhao said. On the one hand, he was getting paid, and on the other hand, he felt that he had made the right choice by signing with Jiaxing.

“Thank you Mr. Zhao and the company for your recognition of me. I will definitely not let the company down.” Qi Jia said earnestly and sincerely.

“Okay, the company likes hardworking and down-to-earth artists like you. In addition, the company has decided to do its best to train you to become a top-tier artist.

So if you have any difficulties in the future, you can tell me directly, or tell Yuwen, the company will definitely do its best to satisfy you. “

Mr. Zhao is very satisfied with Qi Jia’s attitude. Which boss would not like an employee who is capable, knows how to do things, and knows how to behave?

“Thanks, Mr. Zhao. I feel that the company has been very good to me now. It even reimburses me for my subway and bus rides every month.”

Qi Jia thanked him sincerely, but when Mr. Zhao heard this, he frowned and said unhappily.

“What! You still want to squeeze into the subway to go back to the company? Are the people below just there to do nothing? If outsiders knew about this, they would think our company is stingy! Yuwen, from today on, give Qi Jia a special car. You can choose any car within one million.”

“Okay, Mr. Zhao.” Chen Yuwen smiled secretly and nodded in agreement.

Qi Jia saw that Mr. Zhao had misunderstood his meaning, so he quickly waved his hand to explain.

“No, no, no, Mr. Zhao, I appreciate your kindness, but you don’t need the car. The apartment where I live doesn’t have a parking space, so parking is inconvenient, and I don’t really like driving.”

“What! You’re still living in the newcomer’s apartment? How can this be possible!”

Mr. Zhao was very surprised after hearing this. He waved his hand and said to Chen Yuwen.

“The company is in Xinghewan, Metropolitan Road. There are several large flats. Yuwen, go to the administration department and arrange one for Qi Jia.”

Chen Yuwen was about to agree, but Mr. Zhao changed the subject and said,

“Forget it, you should just take the keys to those sets and take Qi Jiadu to have a look in person. You can choose whichever set you like.”

Qi Jia was confused. He really didn’t mean that. He felt that this small apartment was good enough.

Although it’s a little small, at least cleaning isn’t so tiring.

“Mr. Zhao, a small apartment is enough for me to live in alone. It is also easy to clean. Besides, I often live outside for filming, so the large flat should be left to those who need it.”

Hearing Qi Jia say this, Mr. Zhao was very relieved and felt that he had not made a mistake in choosing the right person.

Qi Jia not only has a good image and is capable, but also thinks about the company.

How could the company disappoint such an employee? So Mr. Zhao waved his hand again and spoke directly.

“Qi Jia, I’m glad you can see the problem from the company’s perspective. But you must live in the large flat. This is not only for your own good, but also what the company must do. Otherwise, if people who don’t know the truth find out, they will think that the company has ignored its meritorious employees, which is disheartening!”

After saying this, he pondered for a few seconds and then continued,

“In addition, the company will assign you a full-time driver and two assistants, one to take care of your daily work and one to take care of your daily life. This way you can concentrate more on filming, which is a good thing for both you and the company.”

Having said that,

What else could Qi Jia say? Besides, he was afraid that if he continued to explain, it would only make things worse.

So, he had to express his loyalty and said a few words about following Mr. Zhao till death and going through fire and water.

Get out of the office.

The two did not leave the company directly, but went into Chen Yuwen’s office again.

“This is the script I received recently. There are four movies and one TV series in total. Take a look and see which one you like.”

Chen Yuwen placed five scripts in front of Qi Jia.

After Qi Jia became famous, she received many scripts from film crews.

The five in front of her were the ones she selected and thought were pretty good. Basically, they were either the leading male or the second male lead, and the prices were not low.

Qi Jia nodded, picked up a script and started reading it. He wanted to die before he could finish reading half of it.

It’s because the script is so bloody.

First, the man cheated on his female subordinate in the company. After being secretly discovered by his wife, his wife wanted to retaliate against him.

So he seduced the husband of the female subordinate, the second male. After the second male learned the truth, in order to take revenge on the first male,

So he secretly used his wife’s mobile phone to send the video of him and Male No. 1’s wife having sex directly to the company’s WeChat group.

After the incident fermented, the female subordinate and the male one were fired from the company. The male one drank all day to drown his sorrows. At this time, his wife came to comfort him again.

So, the male lead changed his ways, admitted his mistakes, reconciled with his wife, and lived together shamelessly again.

Qi Jia was confused when he read half of it. He didn’t know if the screenwriter had watched too many daily life movies to write such a weird plot.

However, although this kind of plot is bloody, it has to be said that elderly parents still like to watch it.

Moreover, the other party offered him the leading male role with a salary of three million, so it is no wonder that Chen Yuwen was chosen.

After putting down this script, he continued to read other ones.

But he was not very satisfied with the three roles in a row. It was not because the role and the salary were not suitable, but mainly because the script and the cast were not good.

He now has very clear requirements for the roles he accepts, which is to try to find those starring veteran actors or those with good scripts.

On the one hand, it can replicate acting skills, and on the other hand, it can prevent oneself from being scolded by netizens for making cheap money just after becoming popular.

While thinking, he picked up the last one.

As soon as he saw the name, his eyes lit up and he felt that this seemed to be interesting.

With a strong curiosity, Qi Jia began to read it carefully, and soon he was attracted by the plot.

The drama tells the story of four freshmen at Nanzhou Jiaotong University who, by chance, join a debate club in the Faculty of Arts that is on the verge of disbanding, and then lead the club to counterattack and dominate the campus.

The more Qi Jia reads, the more he likes it. He feels that this script is very well written and the subject matter is also well selected.

He had a feeling that this drama would be a hit.

After making up his mind, he handed the script to Chen Yuwen and said.

“Sister, I’ve made my choice. I want this one.”

“Which one? Let me see.”

Chen Yuwen looked up from behind the computer, took the script, and turned to the first page, where it read,

Hello, fellow debater
