Rebirth after the college entrance examination

Chapter 120 TVB Actress
Having had comprehensive experience in starting from scratch in his previous life, Xia An is very good at judging people.

Basically, you can judge the basic qualities of a new employee in the workplace just by looking at the introduction and a few simple sentences.

If a person is not boastful, has high aspirations but lacks the ability to achieve his/her job, and has a certain potential for development, then he/she will be a very good new employee.

In short, simplicity is the most basic and best quality for a horse or cattle.

It was not difficult to find such people in 2006 when values were not yet too distorted.

Liu Youwei had previously accepted twelve people in four days, and Xia An was not very satisfied with two or three of them, but he would not let Liu Youwei down.

Whoever recruits, trains.

Xia An's efficiency was higher than Liu Youwei's, and he filled the remaining eighteen pits in three days.

Except for Zhang Tiancheng, Liu Youwei, Lin Jiajia, and one person who was sent to the south to register hotel management companies in Hangzhou and Hong Kong, Xia An convened the first mobilization meeting for all grassroots employees of Fruit Basket Technology on Friday morning.

At the meeting, Xia An delivered an impassioned speech about his vision for the next ten years, which received countless admiring glances and applause.

He also exchanged views with all employees on the company's humane management system and its innovative reward and punishment measures that prioritize performance over attendance.

Everyone shouted that it was reliable.

The meeting came to a successful conclusion at 10:30 am.

Xia An took out his wallet again in public, counted out two thousand yuan and put it on the table.

"Today is Friday, Monday, and next Monday will be the day when I and all of you set sail with the fruit basket.

I firmly believe that this will be a brand new chapter in our lives and the future will be extremely bright.

But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. If the general does not know his soldiers, and the soldiers do not know their general, there will be no war.

Come, I will pay for it out of my own pocket, and the team leaders of each department will organize the team building today.

At 12 noon, we are off."

Xia An once again received numerous praises.

At noon, an employee asked, "Mr. Xia, don't you want to get together with everyone?"

Xia An smiled calmly and said, "My work isn't done yet. Go have fun. Have fun and enjoy yourself."

The employees were very touched.

As people in the kebab shop clinked glasses and chatted with each other, they also expressed their feelings.

"I didn't expect President Xia to be so young, so outstanding, and so able to endure hardships."

"Yes, and handsome."

The team leaders even praised them: "Everyone work hard in the future, and the bosses will definitely treat us well."

It's like an old donkey saying to the little donkey, "Grow up quickly and I will teach you how to grind the mill. If you grind well, you will have food to eat and be praised by others."

The nobles taught their children, "Don't learn from a donkey, as it will only be able to pull a millstone all its life."

Xia An’s job is to lie on the boss chair, put his legs on the table and stare blankly.

He skipped classes for several days again. Le Ning was even angry last night and told him that if he didn't learn well in a technical major like theirs, it would be difficult to find a job in the future.

Xia An said that he wanted to try starting a business outside and strive for a better future.

The suffix is: can give you a better life.

This stopped Le Ning from nagging.

I also gave him 500 yuan for pocket money.

Xiao Lening said to him: "As long as you study hard, I will support you in whatever you do."

Tell him not to work too hard and not to do anything illegal.

Xia An sincerely believes that there are many good women in the world.

I am not greedy anymore. Just these few are enough.

In addition to Le Ning, Xu Wanying also called him several times in the past few days.

Urge him to skip classes as he is just a freshman and will easily fail the grade if he doesn't have enough credits.

In fact, Xu Wanying was also quite puzzled, because Xia An was not the only student who skipped classes.

It was the class monitor who told Xia An that she skipped class.

On the contrary, none of the professional teachers told her about it.

This shows that Xia An has a good relationship with the teachers.

When Xu Wanying called him, she actually wanted to ask him whether he had forgotten about the wedding on Sunday.

Xia An spoke first, promising to meet at the school gate early Sunday morning.

Xu Wanying didn't know what to say for a moment.

Why go to college? To study a major and get a degree.

So as to find a good job.

Xia An has skills, abilities and background.

For students like him, the counselor has no other choice but to talk about the rules and regulations.

But Xu Wanying didn't like to talk about school rules and regulations.

Everyone is a young person, and there are not so many rules for young people.

She doesn't want to cause trouble.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the people Xia An and others arrived.

Tang Wan sent the group's logistics department to deliver a car to Xia An.

After going downstairs, Xia An discovered that there were two cars.

I called Tang Wan, and she said with a smile that she originally wanted to buy him a Maybach, but she felt that kind of car was too old-fashioned for Xia An.

In addition to the Continental that was promised to Mr. Xu as the first car, he was also given a BMW 630 coupe.

"Binhai Company has been established, so you need a car. I personally went to the garage to pick it out. This one can be used as a business car, and it doesn't look old-fashioned if you drive it yourself. Do you like it?"

Xia An actually doesn't have much interest in cars.

He was only touched by Tang Wan's delicate thoughts that completely considered him.

"You picked it, of course I like it."

The two new male employees with Down syndrome who were standing respectfully by and listening to the gossip glanced at each other secretly.

Good boy, good boy, is this what we can listen to?
The person in front of you is the chairman’s girlfriend.

It really is…

A face that is born to be a gigolo.

As expected, if you are good-looking, you can work less for twenty years.

But by finding Tang Wan, who is naturally beautiful and already the richest person in the province, he can save himself from struggling for three lifetimes.

There was no envy or jealousy because it was useless. The two people who were just watching the gossip left their car keys and bought train tickets to return to Dongshan.

Xia An left the BMW in the parking lot.

In 06, the fee for this building was three dollars a day.

After he learned about it, he rented five of them for an annual period and kept them as a backup.

He immediately drove the Continental to the airport.

He Zhenzhen's celebrity friend changed her flight ticket and will arrive in Binhai from Ice City tonight, and will fly to Xiangnan Star City at noon tomorrow to attend the Golden Eagle Festival.

Tang Wan sent him a message saying that if he didn't want to go, she would help him postpone it.

Xia An teased, "Sitting on the throne, you're so domineering."

Tang Wan acted coquettishly and refused to give in, saying that she was afraid that he would be noticed by that female star and she was not around, what if something happened?

"I haven't eaten you yet, so I don't have the heart to think about others." He said with a smile.

In the previous life, Xia An was always chasing celebrities. Now that she is reborn, how can she be so destitute that the situation can be reversed?

"And not all female celebrities look as good as they do on camera."

"And most importantly, not all female celebrities are good-looking."

Hearing him say this, Tang Wan on the other end of the phone burst out laughing.

"Okay, she's not really beautiful, but she has a lot of temperament."

Of course Xia An didn't want to go.

But Tang Wan agreed to He Zhenzhen.

It was something that had been arranged long ago, so it would be unreasonable to break the appointment at the last minute. After meeting Tang Wan in person, Xia An knew that Tang Wan had not lied to her.

It's not good-looking, but it does have some temperament.

I can’t say I’m a big star, nor am I a household name.

It was only in 04, with the huge hit of "Beauty at War", that it gained some popularity.

Maggie Cheung, one of the four most popular TVB actresses in the 2000s.

This is not surprising. Since Ho Ching-ching is in the Hong Kong circle, it is normal for her to have some connections with some TVB artists who are willing to climb up the social ladder.

Xia An tried hard to recall and make sure that he had never dealt with this person in his previous life.

When he entered this industry, the Hong Kong entertainment industry was in decline and many celebrities came to the mainland to make money.

But at that time, Xia An was supporting the new generation of young actresses in the domestic entertainment industry. I only remember that she participated in "Legend of Lu Zhen", which made Zhao Liying famous.

Moreover, this Miss Zhang is more than ten years older than him and is almost forty years old now, let alone ten years later?
When they met, Xia An couldn't search for information online in front of the other person.

Fortunately, Tang Wan playfully sent him a text message with Maggie Cheung's basic information. At the end, she said that she had wanted to tease him, but had been too busy in the past few days and had forgotten about it. Now she was afraid that he would feel embarrassed facing her alone, so she told him now.

Xia An took a quick look and realized that she had won the TVB Best Actress Award in 03.

Tsk, to be honest, she is not as popular as the same level as Jessica Hsuan and Ada Kwok.

Maggie Cheung didn’t know Xia An. He looked young and easy-going, but from the moment they met, he behaved very...humble.

Xia An knew very well that people in the entertainment industry were the most worldly-wise.

Moreover, Hong Kong stars are generally not arrogant, especially TVB artists, so it is stress-free to get along with them.

He didn't know what this person's true character was, but he was happy that he didn't have to flatter her and felt very comfortable.

The hotel was not the InterContinental, and Maggie Cheung did not have a separate agent, so she booked an ordinary four-star hotel herself.

Xia An just took her to the restaurant, which was booked by Tang Wan and the dishes were all prepared.

After sitting down at the table, the two chatted briefly.

When he learned that Xia An was still in school, he spontaneously assumed from his car and conversation that he was an ordinary young man from a wealthy family.

She praised Xia An for his handsome appearance, saying that he looked like the popular photography celebrity.

Xia An waved his hands repeatedly and said that he wouldn't be so humble if it were anything else.

But that person is truly ashamed of himself and does not deserve the title.

"You're flattering me."

Maggie Cheung was in a gloomy mood.

As the dishes arrived one by one, Xia An introduced them to her and asked, "How did you meet Xiao Wan? As far as I know, she doesn't pay much attention to things in the film and television industry."

Maggie Cheung took a sip of tea, shook her head and said, "I haven't met Miss Tang in person. It's just that Ms. He knew I would be staying in Binhai City for one night and said that she would have friends to entertain me. I didn't want to bother her, but Ms. He was very welcoming.

"I spoke to Miss Tang on the phone a while ago, and I didn't expect something to happen at home..."

She looked at Xia An, remembering how he had addressed Tang Wan just now. She sighed and said, "My condolences."

Xia An shook his head.

Ms. Tang, Ms. He...

Wow, the name can distinguish the classes.

But he was still curious about how someone with He Zhenzhen's background could befriend an actor who was much older and less famous.

"He Zhenzhen wants to act?"

Hearing this question, Maggie Cheung nodded and said with a helpless smile, "A few months ago, I happened to help her contact a director. She might be playing around and planning to play a small cameo role."

Okay, got it.

He Zhenzhen simply asked Tang Wan to repay a small favor for her.

I think if that person revealed his identity and went to act, he would have made the entertainment headlines of Hong Kong media.

When all the dishes were served, Maggie Cheung smiled bitterly and frowned, looking at Xia An.

"This is too expensive. We can't finish it."

The dishes were not arranged by Xia An, and he was very upset.

I secretly thought that my Comrade Xiaowan really has the style of a Northeast Tiger Girl, she is really too particular about ostentation.

Not to mention the fresh seafood, there were also pots of Northeastern specialties such as stewed chicken, stewed goose, and stewed potatoes and pork ribs.

He forced himself to laugh it off, waved his hand and said, "Guests from afar are welcome. We Northeasterners are known for our hospitality. Come and try it."

The other party praised him for being humorous and witty.

I took a bite or two of each dish and praised each one as delicious.

But he only ate a little, then wiped his mouth and went on to eat the vegetables.

Xia An thought this was the professional quality of an actress, so she didn't try to persuade her any further.

In fact, what he didn't know was that Maggie Cheung was also craving for Northeastern cuisine, but she didn't eat it not for the purpose of controlling her figure, but because she was sick. There was a table full of delicious food, but apart from a few green plants, there was little she could eat.

Eating everything is really about not losing face and kindness to the other person.

This time, when she was filming "The Song of Everlasting Sorrow" in Songjiang Province, she was diagnosed with severe thyroiditis.

Due to his professionalism, he finished filming while sick, attended the Golden Eagle Awards, and then returned to Hong Kong for treatment.

What Xia An didn't know was that because of this treatment, Maggie Cheung turned down all work for two years and only returned to the screen in 08, completely losing her popularity.

Xia An really likes communicating with middle-aged and sophisticated people like Maggie Cheung.

Comfortable.

After half the match, when they got to know each other, Maggie Cheung said that his image and temperament were very suitable for a career in the entertainment industry.

Xia An smiled and waved his hands, saying that he was starting a small business. But then he rolled his eyes and changed the subject, "I do have a very, very important friend who plans to make a name for himself in this industry."

Click till.

Maggie Cheung clearly received the signal from the two consecutive "extraordinary"s.

She tilted her head and smiled. "Oh? From what I understand, film and television companies in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and mainland China are all planning to prioritize the training of new talent."

He put down his teacup and looked at Xia An, then added, "I'm just a small-time actor. I can't be of much help, but I've worked in this industry for over a decade. Recommending new talent to some production crews shouldn't be a problem."

She neither asked whether Xia An's friend was a man or a woman, nor did she ask about the other party's current situation.

It doesn't cost any money to express your kindness casually. If you really get in touch with her again and again, she will naturally help if she can.

No matter which of the two He families is from, they are all highly sought-after connections in Southeast Asia. Moreover, as she said, they are just small-time actors and are no longer in the sight of the big guys.

Although they had been chatting for such a long time, Maggie Cheung did not mention Ho Ching-ching at all, but she clearly guessed that the little boy in front of her had a close relationship with Ho Ching-ching.

"What a coincidence! She's also in Star City preparing for the Golden Eagle Festival."

He chuckled, and Maggie Cheung also laughed, "It's indeed a coincidence."

After saying that, Maggie Cheung opened her bag, took out her cell phone, looked up and asked, "Can I write down your and your friend's numbers?"

OK.

He drove Tang Wan's car to pick up He Zhenzhen's friends, used Tang Wan's style to invite He Zhenzhen's friends, and helped Xiao Youzi to make some connections.

He was planning to use his own entertainment company to win Zuo You back in the future, but he hadn't figured out how to do it yet. It would be nothing more than paying liquidated damages to terminate the contract, or directly buying that little-known media company.

But no matter what, it will take some time to wait for the funds to arrive, for the team to be formed, and for the preliminary qualifications to be obtained.

During this process, Xiaoyouzi was still hovering on the edge of the 19th line.

The entertainment industry is a small circle that pays great attention to seniority.

As long as there is support from seniors, no matter how big or small they are, they will always give each other some face.

At the very least, even if Maggie Cheung had chatted with Zuo You for a while longer backstage at the Golden Eagle Awards, the agency would have paid more attention to her.

This meal was worth it.

On the way to send Maggie Cheung back to the hotel, he saw her take out a medicine bottle and take two pills.

I thought it was a skin care product or something, but when I saw it, I was amused.

"Oh, is your thyroid inflamed? No wonder you have to avoid so many foods."

Maggie Cheung swallowed the medicine, smiled, and sighed, "Being an actor, my work and rest schedule are irregular. When I'm busy with scenes, the pressure is huge. I'm also getting older..."

Xia An smacked his lips and laughed, "That's quite a coincidence. I also had a thyroid problem a while ago, and it was quite serious. Then someone recommended me to see a Chinese doctor, and I was cured in one course of treatment. It's amazing."

That was all in the previous life.

He said, "It's in Yanjing. If you have time, go and see it, Bao Ling."
