However, Jiaxing is also kind.
I found her a popular young male celebrity.
While Qiao Yu was "slandering" his sister-brother complex, Qiao Jingjing was throwing a tantrum in her office.
That's why I didn't have time to settle accounts with my younger brother.
Fortunately, Qiao Jingjing's mindset has improved a lot recently.
If I were still as easily hurt as before, I'd have to call my brother again and whine.
Agent Mo Xiangwan pushed open the door and led two people in.
One was a woman in her early thirties, and the other was around twenty.
He's about the same age as Qiao Yu and is a handsome young man.
He's a rising young heartthrob.
Qiao Jingjing immediately stood up, her pretty face beaming with a smile, "Hello."
The young man said, "Hello."
His eyes were fixed on Qiao Jingjing's face, and he couldn't look away.
It took a long time to move it.
They then took a closer look at Qiao Jingjing's terrifyingly large and shapely figure, with her tiny waist, perky buttocks, and long legs.
Perhaps it was the confidence that allowed him to roam freely among women, but his gaze was quite aggressive.
Qiao Jingjing remained unfazed; she was simply used to it.
People are spying on her every day.
We can't just stay home all the time.
Mo Xiangwan smiled broadly and said politely:
"Thank you so much for your help. I wouldn't trust anyone else to be my guest performer, but with you, there's absolutely no problem."
The young man smiled politely.
His agent said, "His schedule just happened to be available, so he came over."
"To be honest, we actually took a risk. With our popularity, we could choose whether or not to be guest performers, but if we lost, we would lose fans."
Qiao Jingjing's smile faded; she didn't like what she said.
Mo Xiangwan was a seasoned veteran, her smile unchanged.
He kept saying, "It's so troublesome, so troublesome."
The female agent and the young man exchanged a glance, then she took a contract out of her bag:
"There are a few requirements to make clear before rehearsals begin."
"First: During the duet segment on the show, we hope to sing one of Yang Shao's songs."
"Second: Regardless of the outcome, I hope to ask Teacher Qiao to sing a song for me."
This "Teacher Qiao" naturally refers to Qiao Yu.
As they spoke, the young man and his female agent looked at Qiao Jingjing.
Qiao Jingjing's smile had long since vanished, and her expression was indifferent.
She doesn't speak.
I'm afraid of the sudden silence.
This is where Mo Xiangwan's usefulness comes in; she chuckled twice.
"This doesn't seem to be part of the agreement."
"It was just a verbal agreement; there was no formal contract."
The young male star's female agent argued confidently: "Besides, we have brought this up before, and your company said that we should discuss it with you privately."
“But the song we’re going to sing has already been decided,” Mo Xiangwan said.
"Rehearsals haven't even started, how can it be finalized? If it was decided privately, it can be changed," the female agent said.
Although annoyed by their unreasonable price gouging, Qiao Jingjing held back, frowning as she said:
"You want to promote your new song? No way. That's against the rules."
Mo Xiangwan interjected, "And what about the song arrangement? Is it a clause in the agreement, or is it arranged privately?"
The female agent rolled her eyes: "Of course, it's a supplementary clause in the agreement."
Okay, so you mean you're giving away a song for free?
Mo Xiangwan was also displeased: "You're trying to raise prices on the spot."
“We didn’t sign a contract, so how can you arbitrarily raise the price? Young Master Yang took a risk by going on the show to sing for us.”
"Keep in mind, your opponents are all big names in the music industry. How confident are you of winning?"
Getting a good ranking is difficult. If the ranking is too bad, Young Master Yang risks losing fans. For that little appearance fee? A single advertisement earns more than that.
Mo Xiangwan said, "No, I can only agree to one of the two conditions."
"No, not a single one can be missing."
The two sides were deadlocked.
Young Master Yang remained calm and collected, looking at Qiao Jingjing with amusement.
Although Qiao Jingjing was more famous than him, he showed no respect whatsoever.
There's nothing he can do about it; he has a lot of female fans.
And Qiao Jingjing is such a beautiful woman, her figure is so hot.
The best of the best.
Qiao Jingjing took a sip of her coffee and said coldly:
"Sister Xiang Wan, see the guest out."
Mo Xiangwan was taken aback.
Yang Shao's smile froze.
The female agent raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you mean?"
"literal meaning."
Qiao Jingjing looked directly at her and said, "Thank you for taking the time to come, but I don't think I need your help singing."
"Since it's a verbal agreement, there's no need to pay a penalty for breach of contract, right?"
"Have you thought this through? The finals are starting in a few days. It takes time to arrange a duet, time to discuss things, and time to rehearse."
"Don't act impulsively. There are artists in Jiaxing who are more famous than Yang Shao, but if they all had available time, they wouldn't have contacted us."
The female agent spoke with conviction.
She had done a thorough investigation.
I know that Qiao Jingjing is short of time, and she is a relative newcomer in the music industry with little background and connections.
It's impossible to find anyone in a short period of time.
That's why they have the confidence to ask for exorbitant prices.
"I don't need you to worry about me." Qiao Jingjing rolled her eyes. "Show him out."
"Then there's nothing to talk about."
The female agent grabbed the contract and left with the young man.
After the two left.
"Who is it?"
Mo Xiangwan spat.
Qiao Jingjing asked expressionlessly, "Does Sister Zhang have time?"
"She went north to hold a concert."
"Is there really no artist in the company whose schedule is available for filming?"
"First- and second-tier celebrities have very tight schedules, so it's definitely not feasible to squeeze in someone at the last minute. Those with more flexible schedules might not even be as famous as this pretty boy."
After all, he's a popular young idol.
Even a minor scratch elicits a large number of female fans online expressing their sympathy.
Qiao Jingjing frowned.
Mo Xiangwan paced back and forth in her office, regretting her actions.
"We should have agreed to their request (Good Wang Zhao) earlier. The guests that the company had arranged for us have backed out like this, and it would be difficult to explain to the company."
"Agree? You take a step back, he takes ten steps forward. Believe me, he'll pull some kind of trick before the competition."
Qiao Jingjing gave a cold laugh.
"What should I do?"
Mo Xiangwan sighed: "Forget it, I've been navigating the agent industry for over ten years, I'll find someone to help me."
"Hey Yang, are you free tonight? Let's go out for dinner..."
"Hi, nothing much, just wanted to ask if our teacher Shang has time for the live broadcast of the 'Singer' finale on Friday..."
"Oh, you're not available? Okay then, we should definitely get together another day."
"Hey, Dong, is your artist available on Friday? If not, then I need your help..."
"How would you know if you haven't tried? Let me tell you, Qiao Jingjing's songs are absolutely top-notch, and it's still uncertain who will win."
"Why did you chicken out...hey?"
"Li Yue, you still owe me a favor from a few years ago, right? Let me be frank with you, Qiao Jingjing needs a guest performer, and you're Teacher Zhou's manager... are you afraid of losing?"
