Chapter 52 - 52 A Chance To Make A Comeback
“I just can’t bear to see you being forced to quit the entertainment industry like this because you’re so attached to it.” Xi Wan sighed, as if she really felt sorry for Jiang Ran’s retirement. “Besides, you’re beautiful and you have really good acting skills. It’ll be a huge loss if such a good actress were to really retire from the entertainment industry.”
Xi Wan’s words sounded very sincere as if they came from the bottom of her heart. Jiang Ran was indeed swayed by her coaxing tone.
“Xi YWn, will you really help me?”
!!
“Of course, I wouldn’t have sent you a message if I didn’t want to help you.” Xi Wan said, “I can only say that you’re a fool if you don’t cherish such a good opportunity.”
Jiang Ran only hesitated for a second before she agreed to Xi Wan’s proposal. “Okay, I’ll agree to anything you say as long as you can help me make a comeback!”
Even though the two of them had a hostile relationship, this concerned the matter of making a comeback in the entertainment industry. Jiang Ran could not simply ignore it no matter how big their conflict was.
Moreover, Jiang Ran had already emptied her savings to pay the company’s penalty. She did not have a single cent on her now. Although Zhao Fei said that she could help her find a better job, there was still no news from her.
If this continued, Jiang Ran would not even have money to eat. Now that Xi Wan had given her a better choice, Jiang Ran would really be a fool if she hesitated.
Xi Yan snapped her fingers and said with satisfaction, “That’s how it should be. You just need to wait for the news and an agency will contact you soon.”
Jiang Ran wanted to ask more questions but Xi Wan had already hung up.
“Comfortable!” Xi Wan stretched lazily.
In fact, she originally wanted to put Jiang Ran into Su Group’s entertainment company but she was worried that people would say that she was abusing her power and that Jiang Ran had gotten in using connections. That would be bad for both their reputations.
Hence, Xi Wan decided to register her own entertainment company. Jiang Ran would be the first artiste that she would sign under her company.
When the system heard Xi Wan’s thoughts, it was shocked. [Xi Wan, what an outrageous idea! It’s fine if you want to help Jiang Ran make a comeback but you’re starting your own entertainment company now?]
Xi Wan replied, “That’s right, I’m an investor anyway so it’s not a big deal to start my own entertainment company. If Jiang Ran is willing to follow me wholeheartedly, I will have one more person on my side. That’s a good thing.”
With that said, Xi Wan prepared the materials immediately and was ready to apply to the higher-ups. The name of the company would be ‘Wan Entertainment Company.’
By the time she had prepared all the materials, Su Xun had returned.
Xi Yan acted as if there was no such person at all and was busy registering the company. Su Xun felt more and more awkward after being ignored, so he said, “What are you doing?”
Xi Wan replied, “Preparing materials. I want to register an entertainment company.”
“What company are you going to register?” Su Xun was stunned.
“As a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, isn’t it normal to register an entertainment company?” Xi Wan applied with all the materials that she had prepared and the next thing to do was to wait for the results.
“You won’t have any artistes to sign up even if you register your company.” Su Xun said, “Besides, your company will be a new company with not much resources. Even some veteran artistes might not be interested.”
After thinking about it, he added, “If there are really veteran artistes looking for you, I’m afraid that it’ll only be because of me.”
Xi Wan looked at him disdainfully and said, “You’re quite self-conceited, aren’t you? Who says I don’t have any artistes under me? Jiang Ran will be the first artiste under my company when my company is successfully registered.”
Su Xun still had an impression of this name because some time ago, the matter between Xi Wan and her had caused an uproar. It was difficult for Su Xun not to know about it.
“Jiang Ran framed you on purpose and caused you to leave the entertainment industry. You’re still willing to work with her?” Su Xun did not quite understand what this woman, Xi Wan, was thinking.
“She hurt me but I don’t care about the past at all. Reconciling with her will show my generosity.” Xi Wan said, “There’s so much negative news about me online. Can’t I do something to restore my image?”
Su Xun was a little speechless. “How would you know if Jiang Ran is sincere toward you?”
“It’s fine as long as she can maintain her sincerity on the surface.” Xi Wan was indifferent.
