Dingzi scratched his head and said unhappily, "Sister Ming, are you praising me or scolding me?"

Qin Yuming nodded seriously and smiled, "Of course I am praising you. I think a company is like a big family. It doesn't need to be too serious. It needs a little more life so that employees can feel the real each other. As managers, we should not put on airs and put pressure on others. Instead, we should be like brothers and sisters, caring about employees and colleagues."

Fang Zhicheng smiled admiringly and said, "Sister Ming, your management idea is correct."

Shen Wei curled her lips and said unhappily, "Correct ass, I think this is like letting a duck go, it works fine for a while, but after a while, everyone will get used to it and no one will care if you are their brother or sister, they will just mess around and not obey management at all. Yuming, I have to say you are too lenient with your employees, you don't have the airs that a chairman should have at all."

Dingzi nudged Fang Zhicheng with his elbow and laughed softly, "See? These two sisters have completely different management styles. Sister Ming is very popular among employees, but because she is too gentle to others, few people are afraid of her. On the other hand, Sister Wei is too strict with others, but naturally the employees don't like her too much."

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "In fact, it's not bad for the three of you to work together and complement each other's strengths and weaknesses. Sister Ming is responsible for treating employees with tolerance, Sister Wei is responsible for strict management of employees, and Dingzi is responsible for buffering various conflicts. Yuming Media Group is lucky to have the three of you in the management."

Qin Yuming smiled faintly and said, "We can't do without you as a great consultant to guide us forward from a strategic perspective. For the future of the media group, let's have a drink together."

The three of them finished their drinks, and several people walked in from the door. Fang Zhicheng looked carefully and found that they were from the crew of "Swordsman 2". They were sitting at the next table. The producer noticed Qin Yuming and Shen Wei and came over to greet them, "Mr. Qin, Mr. Shen, I didn't expect you to eat here too."

Qin Yuming shook hands with the producer and said with a smile: "Boss Lu, I'll pay for dinner today..."

Lu Yi nodded and said, "Boss Qin is really straightforward, so I won't be hypocritical."

Fang Zhicheng scanned the table. In addition to the producer, there were also directors, actors and actresses. The male lead was Zhang Rui, a popular star in China, and the female lead was from Taiwan, also well-known in China, named Tian Xiner. Fang Zhicheng found that Tian Xiner was sitting next to Lu Yi, and from time to time she would lean over and whisper to Lu Yi, thinking that Tian Xiner had a close relationship with the producer.

Dingzi sniffed and whispered to Fang Zhicheng unhappily, "Tian Xiner on the screen is quite pure, but I didn't expect her to be so coquettish in real life. She almost fell into the producer's arms."

Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "Doesn't this just prove that her acting skills are superb?"

Nail pursed his lips and said, "It's really disgusting."

Fang Zhicheng understood Dingzi's anger. He guessed that he originally had a good impression of Tian Xiner, but when he found out that Tian Xiner lived such a casual life in real life, he felt a huge gap, so he felt dissatisfied.

Shen Wei said, "The entertainment industry is like this. It's glamorous on stage, but dark off stage. Some actresses are willing to use their bodies as capital to gain popularity. Even though Tian Xin'er is now a well-known idol star, she still has to act docile in front of producers and directors, because if she offends a producer or director, the actor will most likely be hidden or banned. From a certain perspective, actors are also a vulnerable group."

Qin Yuming showed a worried look on her face and smiled bitterly: "I am deeply worried about the students in the performing arts school. I don't know how many of them can successfully get out of the circle."

The four were discussing when a few people walked in from outside the store. They were a group of students from Yuming Performing Arts School who were playing minor roles in the film and television base. There were both men and women among them, and Yang Xiaoqiao was among them. She was chatting and laughing with her classmates. When they saw the crew and the school people were there, they immediately fell silent and found a more secluded place to sit down.

The girl next to Yang Xiaoqiao was named Cao Yan. She whispered, "Xiaoqiao, Principal Qin and Producer Lu are here. Should we go over and toast them?"

Yang Xiaoqiao shook her head and said, "If you want to go, go ahead..."

Cao Yan looked at Yang Xiaoqiao a little embarrassedly, and finally plucked up the courage to toast with the other three classmates at the same table, holding up their glasses, first at the school table, and then at the "Swordsman 2" crew.

Shen Wei gave Fang Zhicheng a look, and Fang Zhicheng understood that she was hinting to him that Yang Xiaoqiao's performance was average and she didn't take the initiative to come over to toast. This girl looks good and has good acting skills, but it's useless. She can't fit into the circle, and it's hard to imagine her achieving anything big.

Fang Zhicheng didn't think so. If Yang Xiaoqiao was like other students, it would seem a bit tacky. Everyone at the table came to toast her, but she was the only one who didn't stand up. This actually showed that Yang Xiaoqiao was different from others.

Cao Yan returned to the table and saw that Yang Xiaoqiao was silent. She whispered, "Xiaoqiao, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Whether it's the school or the crew, if you leave a deep impression on them, maybe you can make a breakthrough in the future."

Yang Xiaoqiao shook her head and said, "Yan'er, it's useless to wag your tail and beg for mercy. If an actor doesn't have the necessary backbone, it will be difficult for him to stand out."

Cao Yan's face darkened, and she obviously disagreed with Yang Xiaoqiao's words. She thought to herself that the male lead Zhang Rui had just given her his phone number, and she would call him later. Zhang Rui had a sunny and healthy image, and he had appeared in many TV series with high ratings. It would be easy for him to recommend a few roles for her.

On the surface, Yang Xiaoqiao and herself have a good relationship, but deep down, Cao Yan has always been jealous of Yang Xiaoqiao. From the first day they entered Yuming Performing Arts School together, Yang Xiaoqiao has left her far behind. She has a pure and elegant appearance and her acting skills are also very good. If Cao Yan competes through normal channels, it will be difficult for her to compare with Yang Xiaoqiao. Since she is preparing to enter the entertainment industry, she has already prepared herself. As long as there is a chance, she will choose to offer her body without hesitation.

On the set of Swordsman 2, Zhang Rui whispered to director Lin Ke, "Director Lin, how about we go out and have a drink tonight? I just left a phone number for the student there. If everything goes as expected, she will contact us later. I'll ask her to bring a few female classmates, and we can go sing or have a drink at the bar together."

Link nodded and said with a smile: "Zhang Rui, others say that you are a killer of teenage girls, which is absolutely true. As expected, when you are with me, there will always be women throwing themselves at you. Our crew is making good progress in filming, and everyone is very tired. We can start filming later tomorrow, so let's relax tonight. After dinner, let's go sing, it's my treat!"

When Zhang Rui saw Link agreed, he smiled and turned to look at the student table. Cao Yan just turned her gaze over here. Zhang Rui winked at her. Cao Yan's heart was pounding and she was very happy. She quickly lowered her head.

Because the dinner tonight was hosted by Yuming Media Group, Lu Yi took the initiative to toast Qin Yuming and others with the table. After the greetings, Lu Yi smiled and invited: "I wonder if Mr. Qin and you have any activities later. We are going to sing. How about going together?"

Qin Yuming was about to refuse, but Shen Wei nodded and agreed: "Boss Lu, we are just about to relax, let's go together."

After the pedestrians left, Qin Yuming showed a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Why did you agree to them?"

Shen Wei explained with a smile: "I am a little curious and want to see what the private lives of those in the entertainment industry are like."

Qin Yuming glanced at Fang Zhicheng and asked, "Are you going?"

Fang Zhicheng shrugged and said with a smile: "Go, of course I have to go, I am also very curious."

Chapter 0408: How Can a Toy Be Qualified

Cao Yan brought a few female classmates to the box mentioned in the text message, but she was in a bad mood because Zhang Rui actually specified that he would bring Yang Xiaoqiao with him, which made her feel extremely unbalanced. Yang Xiaoqiao did not go over to toast, which attracted Zhang Rui's attention. Zhang Rui was very curious. He had met Yang Xiaoqiao several times in the crew before and felt that this girl had good acting skills, but her personality was cold and indifferent outside of acting, with a kind of cold beauty.

Men all like to challenge difficult things. Compared with Yang Xiaoqiao, Cao Yan seems a little too vulgar.

When Cao Yan pushed open the door of the singing room, she was stunned, because not only were the members of the "Swordsman 2" crew there, but also the senior leaders of Yuming Performing Arts School. Seeing that all the students had arrived, Lu Yi stood up and explained to Qin Yuming: "Boss Qin, during the filming process this time, the crew boldly used young actors from your performing arts school for supporting roles. We also called them over for singing today. You don't mind, do you?"

Qin Yuming shook her hand and smiled, "I am so happy to see that students are being taken care of by President Lu. Students, please come in quickly. Treat today as an exam. I will grade your performance."

When the students heard Qin Yuming say this, they all sat on the leather sofas. Compared with actors like Tian Xiner, they seemed much more reserved.

Cao Yan originally wanted to sit next to Zhang Rui, but to her surprise, Zhang Rui took the initiative to sit next to Yang Xiaoqiao. What made Cao Yan even more shocked and speechless was that a middle-aged man in charge of filming the director's team sat next to her.

"Hello, I've been following you for a long time. You know, I often point my camera at you when you're not paying attention. In my eyes, you're no worse than those regular actors, you just lack opportunities." The bearded cameraman whispered, "You know, as a photographer, I have a unique ability to judge actors. For example, Tian Xin'er is actually very ordinary in real life, but her performance under the camera is very dynamic. Such actors can easily catch the camera and attract the audience's attention."

After the cameraman said a bunch of mysterious words, Cao Yan began to face the reality. Zhang Rui had not paid attention to her from the beginning. Perhaps she could start with this cameraman. After all, he was someone in the circle. If she could have someone in the circle to bring her into the industry, this might be a good opportunity.
