《Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant》Breathing Stars
Advertisement
In the face of Wang Jingwen's arrogant attitude, Zhang Xiaohua wasn't irritated as he slowly put away his hand, which was stretched out. His face was pleasant, but in his heart, he wasn’t sure of what to think.
Zhang Xiaohua was trying to stay calm. While Yuan Datong on the other hand, was already in full blown frustration mode, because he knew that Zhang Xiaohua had sincerely invited Wang Jingwen to talk about cooperation.
Yuan Datong admitted that he and his brothers weren't famous musicians. The company was only just getting started and they had no position or influence at all. However, even if the the size of the company was small, did she not know her current identity? She was acting as if she was a famous person with such a haughty attitude.
Calling her a celebrity was being far too generous, she was nothing but a washed up singer.
Humph!
Her arrogant attitude was simply too different from her pure image in the music video.
It was no wonder that "New Century Entertainment" wasn't willing to renew her contract, she really deserved it!
At this thought, Yuan Datong looked at Wang Jingwen with an unpleasant face, but he did not say anything. After all, Zhang Xiaohua was the boss here and everything should be decided by him.
After looking around at the simple environment, Wang Jingwen's mouth slightly hooked and immediately brought a touch of disdain in her smile. Obviously, she was not very optimistic about this company.
In addition, before she even entered the door, she did not see a signboard with the words "HuaXiang Entertainment" on the outside. She had thought that it was a private house or a dangerous and dilapidated building that was in disrepair.
Before actually coming, Wang Jingwen knew that this was a small company, but she never expected this company to be even smaller than she had imagined. Especially the so-called musicians in front of her, the average age was no more than 25 years old. It was simply a group of young, rough-haired babies. Did they think they could create good music?

Originally, Wang Jingwen also had some hopes for this company. She thought that with this company, she could make a comeback. However, Wang Jingwen could not help but be disappointed.
She tried to leave as soon as possible.
Wang Jingwen turned her eyes and didn't intend to look at Zhang Xiaohua. She couldn't help but slightly glimpse as she felt that she was a bit familiar with this person and could not help but ask, "You look very familiar. Have we met before?"
"I'll tell you. The person in front of you is not only the owner of our HuaXiang Entertainment, he is also the Prince of New Century Entertainment." Not waiting for Zhang Xiaohua to speak up, Yuan Datong proudly introduced him to Wang Jingwen.
After she had listened to Yuan Datong's remarks, Wang Jingwen immediately disliked them. Although Zhang Xiaohua didn't do anything to her, she was slightly irritated with Zhang Xiaohua. Her lips immediately gave a hint of laughter and she glared at Yuan Datong while she spoke: "Oh, I see! He was the second-generation ancestor who only partied all day long? Oh, I heard that his father had just passed away. Without a backing, he dared to open up a new company? What a joke!"
"You..."
Yuan Datong grudged from his heart and was about to make a big noise, but Wang Jingwen didn't give him the opportunity to, as she continued to cynically say: "Everyone now knows that New Century Entertainment changed its name. The company is basically surnamed Cao... Do you still think that you Zhang's still run it?"
Yuan Datong was angry and desperate, but he could not find any reason to refute, because this Wang Jingwen was right, the New Century Entertainment was indeed run by the Cao's. Although Zhang Xiaohua still held his share of New Century Entertainment, this fact couldn't be changed.
"Forget it, you shouldn’t bother with her, or you'll end up dying from anger." Emma patted his back gently.

Yuan Datong had already turned his gaze to Zhang Xiaohua. He seemed to be watching Zhang Xiaohua's emotions. At the same time, he also felt a bit of sympathy for Zhang Xiaohua.
Yuan Datong couldn't deny that the former Zhang Xiaohua was a prodigal son who did nothing. Wang Jingwen didn’t laugh at him for nothing. However, he and his dad had deep feelings.
According to Yuan Datong's understanding of Zhang Xiaohua, he knew that Zhang Xiaohua could tolerate anything, except if someone talked about his father in a negative way.
His father had only just passed away, the wound in his heart hadn't yet healed. This Wang Jingwen actually sprinkled salt on his wounds and he was afraid that he couldn't stand it!
In order to prevent Zhang Xiaohua from being humiliated again, Yuan Datong suddenly raised his voice. "I tell you, we are not afraid to find someone else to sing the song we made. Today you didn't sing and it's your loss. Now we don't welcome you here. Please leave!"
"Humph!" Wang Jingwen coldly replied, "Even if you asked me to stay I wouldn't. I haven't fallen so far that I need a job from a small company that could close down at any time."
After her speech was finished, Wang Jingwen turned to leave and, twisting her hips, she walked straight out the door.
In her opinion, a small company like this inviting her to cooperate was no different from simply humiliating her.
After all, she used to be the shining star of New Century Entertainment. What was New Century Entertainment? It was the industry's leading player and every day, many people dreamt of becoming a contracted artist of New Century Entertainment, but now they couldn’t really step into that company anymore, as there were too many thresholds.
Being a former member of New Century Entertainment was enough to make Wang Jingwen proud. What's more, she didn't think this humble little company could even create a good song. She was still very young and would have lots of opportunities in the future and if she signed up with this small company, she would undoubtedly miss many opportunities. After all, contracts are limiting and binding.
Instead of wasting anymore time, it's better to take a break.
Not waiting for Wang Jingwen to leave the company, Zhang Xiaohua said: "Miss Wang, since you came all this way, why don’t you first listen to our company's work before leaving? Maybe we could really have the opportunity to cooperate."
"Xiaohua, aren't you mad? How can you tolerate this?" Wang Jingwen hadn't yet taken a stand but Yuan Datong suddenly became impatient. However, before he could finish his words, Zhang Xiaohua waved his hand at him, indicating for him to no longer talk
He didn't know where to begin, but Yuan Datong had been accustomed to listening to Zhang Xiaohua's instructions, so he closed his mouth. He too wanted to see how exactly would Zhang Xiaohua deal with this matter.
Wang Jingwen stopped listening and didn't return back inside. "I don't think it should be necessary?"
Zhang Xiaohua raised his hand to his nose and smiled: "Oh, since you came, it shows how much hope you have for our company. Anyway, since you’re here why do you have to hurry and leave? Again, even if you used to be an entertainer of New Century Entertainment, don't you still have to go to the bar and sing all day now?"
Wang Jingwen's body shook slightly.
Obviously, Zhang Xiaohua's words reached her heart...

Bow of the North
In game of thrones i felt that the Starks received way too much hardships and tragedy. i know that there were vital points of story, and there were times these hardships were building points for their characters, but i feel when every member of a family has been either killed, raped or crippled then they deserve a break. In my story that break comes in the form of a powerful hunter/general from another world. I have no intention of altering the story to save every stark, or have them win every time, and some of my favourite characters may even be victims of this plot change as well. edited The main character, and there will be several new characters introduced to the storyline, will not just be some over powered guy who makes outrageous decisions that always work out (cough Plot armour) but will be someone that treats the world as a real world and has fears, doubts and is cautious in his decisions. He is susceptible to changing his mind and character traits depending on his experiences in this life. The story will primarily follow the plot at the beginning with some minor changes, and as more things change they will increase till the entire story is changed at the end. I am not copying the world of GoT exactly. cultures, politics and nobility may be changed or made up.
