Not long after Quan Jiu left the performance hall, she received the information sent by Ren Kui.
When she opened the resume, she was surprised, "It's Ping Yang."
Bai Lin also stopped and said in surprise, "The little girl's agent just now was Ping Yang? That girl's family must be wealthy. Although Ping Yang is an independent agent, he is equivalent to a company by himself. Many of the current top-tier artists were brought out by him. The entire entertainment industry wants to hire him as an agent, and it's not easy to get him."
Quan Jiu smiled and said, "I heard that Ping Yang is very arrogant. I didn't expect him to be willing to come to my humble abode."
Bai Lin laughed heartily, "It's all rumors. He's just quiet, but he's actually a very good person. He's decisive in his actions. If we really talk about his ability to handle things, Wang Chuan, Li Jing, Zhao Kuo, and those so-called aces in the industry, all have to step aside."
Quan Jiu immediately added Ping Yang on WeChat. In less than a minute, the other party accepted the friend request and quickly sent her a message.
"I don't sign with companies."
Quan Jiu thought for a moment and replied, "You don't have to sign a contract, but you need to be affiliated. After all, Ren Kui is currently an artist signed with Chuxin. Apart from that, you are completely free."
After waiting for a moment and not receiving a reply, Quan Jiu smiled helplessly, "He is indeed easy to be misunderstood like this."
However, no reply means no objection, right? Quan Jiu was secretly delighted. With such a distinguished figure like Ping Yang on board, it was a significant presence.
"I will find a way to resolve your issue with Lu Lian. I'll see you later." At the fork in the road, Quan Jiu bid farewell to Bai Lin.
Bai Lin thanked her repeatedly before leaving.
Han Zhao checked the time. It was still some time before lunch, so he asked, "Teacher, are you leaving soon?"
"There's one more thing." Quan Jiu sent a message in the B training class group, "Go to the performance room."
Han Zhao opened the message and saw a notice for students in the B training class to gather in the performance room.
As soon as the message was sent, Zhuang Yu immediately sent several excited emojis, "Comrades, we're casting roles. Do you remember the self-introductions from the first class?"
This immediately stirred up the group members, who all sent emojis and cheered in the group.
Han Zhao asked with surprise, "Teacher, can we really do it?"
Quan Jiu took a script out of her bag and smiled, "Do you really think I was joking with you?"
...
When the two arrived at the performance room, the students from the training class were all there. Even Ren Kui was already seated. Seeing Quan Jiu and Han Zhao enter, she playfully said, "Boss, why are you slower than me?"
"Boss always makes a grand entrance," Zhuang Yu chimed in.
Quan Jiu clapped her hands. After Han Zhao sat down, she held up the script and said, "I promised you all self-introductions to cast roles. The reason I'm revealing the results now is because the answers need to be told to me by you.
Now, I want you to tell me in unison, who made the deepest impression on you during your self-introductions. I'll count to three, and you answer me together, okay? One, two, three."
As soon as she finished speaking, a resounding "Han Zhao" erupted from the entire classroom.
Han Zhao, who was named, smiled sheepishly, "The teacher is right. I made my appearance last, which indeed gave me an advantage."
Quan Jiu continued to ask, "Do you still remember what his self-introduction was?"
"Laugh." Again, in unison.
Quan Jiu nodded and asked again, "Who is the second person you remember?"
"Xiang Fei's skit."
"Ren Kui's Taekwondo."
Although the voices were a bit noisy this time, the students only shouted the names of two people.
Xiang Fei stood up and cupped his fists, "Brothers and sisters, thank you for still remembering me."
Ren Kui shouted, "Everyone, please have milk tea later!"
Immediately, another cheer erupted.
After that, Quan Jiu asked several more times, and the students who made a deep impression were also selected.
Finally, out of thirty-six people, nine were chosen.
Quan Jiu immediately cast Han Zhao and Ren Kui as the male and female leads, and also assigned roles to the others. The nine people occupied almost all the important roles in the story.
After assigning the roles, Quan Jiu said earnestly:
"I haven't even confirmed a co-director for this drama yet, which is a good thing for you. You will have plenty of time to study the script and ponder your characters.
I hope you cherish and seize this opportunity, because whether you can impress the director will depend on your own abilities.
I saw potential in you, which is why I chose you. When discussing cooperation, I will recommend you based on this condition, but I cannot guarantee that you will all be recognized by the director and producers. The only guarantee is yourselves.
And Zhuang Yu and the others, you have already signed with companies, and whether you participate will depend on the wishes of your respective companies."
"Understood, teacher. No matter what, I will participate. This opportunity is too rare, I won't give it up," Zhuang Yu promised, clenching his fist.
Quan Jiu took a deep breath and smiled, "Alright students, this training session is now concluded. I wish you all a bright future, and may you never forget your original intentions."
...
Tianyu Entertainment.
Xiao Tian, a junior public relations officer in Group Two, suddenly jumped up from her stool and rushed into Li Jing's office with a tablet.
"Sister Li, something's wrong, quickly look at the internet."
Li Jing was still annoyed by the Chuxin group. When Xiao Tian burst into her office, her temper flared up immediately, and she roared, "Is the sky falling?"
Xiao Tian felt wronged by the scolding but could only swallow it. She calmed her tone and said, "A student from Class A revealed that Jin Xue threatened them and bought the professor's lecture notes to perfunctorily train them." She placed the tablet in front of Li Jing.
"What?" Li Jing was shocked and picked up the tablet to look.
It was a video with the faces blurred.
She clicked on the video and immediately recognized that it was the Class A students taught by Jin Xue, and they were the group that had not performed on stage.
"...On the first day of training, she was more than forty minutes late. Teacher Nine had no choice but to go on stage to speak and delay time, but she went online to spread rumors and distort the facts.
Later, when dividing classes, she took our transcripts and only picked the top twenty people from Class One and Class Two, and assigned the bottom forty to Teacher Nine.
And the incident of snatching the performance room, it wasn't that Teacher Nine bullied her as the internet said, but that she wanted to occupy both performance rooms and didn't want Class B to use them..."
Li Jing couldn't listen any longer. She yelled and smashed the tablet, "These bastards will never get into the entertainment industry in their lives."
Xiao Tian quietly picked up the tablet and asked in a low voice, "What do we do now? There were several media outlets during the interview, and they were all major platforms. The entire internet is going crazy, and everyone is shouting... Jin Xue quit the entertainment industry."
