At noon on Sunday the next day, Shao Qing and his party took a flight back to the Imperial Capital. After landing, they took a taxi directly back to the Dingxin headquarters. In two hours, Liang Youtang completed the entire process and officially transferred Weng Huaijing's management contract to his boss, Shao Qing.
hands.
Shao Qing, on the other hand, took Zhou Peipei, who looked depressed, straight to Weng Huaijing's residence, No. 1, Wanshou Temple Road.
Although Shao Qing had already explained to Zhou Peipei in a gentle manner on the plane, Liang Youtang's partner status in the company would not be affected in any way, and other brokerage contracts in his hand would not be changed.
The company and Shao Qing himself will not punish Zhou Peipei in any way, but Zhou Peipei still feels that her career is in a state of despair at this moment.
On the 30th floor of Courtyard No. 1, the door of Weng Huaijing's house was tightly closed. No matter how many times the doorbell rang, no one responded.
However, Shao Qing's methods were much better than Liang Youtang's. He managed to get Weng Huaijing to open the door with just a few words.
Although Weng Huaijing just stood blankly in the living room after opening the door, she remained indifferent to Shao Qing's fierce questioning after entering the door. Even Shao Qing only wanted to mention Weng Huaijing's motive for doing what he did and whether he had any previous relationship with Yan Qing.
When discussing these topics, Weng Huaijing would always turn his back and respond to her by silently facing the wall. It wasn't until Shao Qing turned to other topics that Weng Huaijing would turn around.
Shao Qing seemed to be sure of some inference at this time. She let out a long sigh and didn't ask any more questions. She took out a document from her bag and told Weng Huaijing that last night Dingxin and Whisper Media, Pearl TV's "Star Whisper"
Here are the minutes of the meeting signed by the "Silk Road" column group.
After hearing Shao Qing talk about Yan Qing's test results, Zhou Peipei clearly felt that Weng Huai's quiet eyes suddenly brightened, but they soon returned to being simple and unpretentious.
Shao Qing also noticed this light and confirmed her judgment. She did not mention this incident and just continued to talk about the aftermath measures.
"Dingxin has voluntarily reduced the share ratio of Weng Huaijing's management contract to all parties by 5%. The share ratio has been reduced from 25% to 20% of the on-demand fee, and the reduced part will be allocated to Yan Qing Studio's share ratio."
She didn't stop until she finished announcing the last additional clause.
The atmosphere in the living room gradually solidified. After a long time, Weng Huaijing, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke. It was not the cold voice that Zhou Peipei was familiar with. Her tone was lower than usual, a little hoarse.
"Sister Shao Qing, thank you for your hard work. I'm sorry for causing so much trouble to everyone. I have no objection to reducing the account sharing ratio. The company can just deduct what I deserve.
But I really don’t want to record the subsequent pilot program. Maybe I should seriously consider it and focus all my work on teaching tasks in the future. Liang Youtang and Sister Qing have mentioned this to me before.
I think it’s better to forget about the contract renewal.”
Zhou Peipei looked at Professor Weng with a haggard face and a hoarse voice in front of her with distress. She didn't even worry that she was on the verge of unemployment.
Shao Qing on the side spat and said angrily:
"Okay, okay, you have to go if you don't want to. Who asked us to sign a pilot contract for two episodes? We don't have to worry about reducing the ratio anymore. We, as a family, won't say anything."
As he spoke, Shao Qing reached into his bag, as if trying to take out a cigarette. Suddenly he realized that he was at Weng Huaijing's house, so he paused and continued:
"Our reform does not rely on your advertising fee to survive. When I made the decision to sign you on behalf of the company, it was actually not to make money. I naturally know that your mind is not here at all."
Shao Qing's beautiful eyes are flowing and she is angry:
"Others are kneeling on the ground and groaning to make money, while those with more courage stand on the ground and make money while shouting. Weng Huaijing, Weng Huaijing, you are that kind of god in the sky, silently holding a fishing rod without a line, standing on the clouds
Fishing for money.”
Hearing what Shao Qing said (standing in the clouds and catching money with a fishing rod), Zhou Peipei couldn't help laughing. Even Weng Huaijing's face, which had always been as cold as frost, melted seven points.
Shao Qing continued:
"As for the contract renewal, don't think about it for now. It's still just over a year away anyway. Even if you don't renew the contract with Dingxin in the end, I will still take care of you as my favorite sister, Qing. This matter will not affect you.
Don't think too much about it either.
In fact, the only thing Liang Youtang did wrong from the beginning to the end was that he did not confirm the guest list with you before this announcement. If he had confirmed it with you in advance, it would probably be less troublesome. It would only take a phone call.
We recorded at a staggered time.
Huai Jing, from now on I will be the one directly in charge of your management appointments. We have the right not to renew the contract after recording these two pilot episodes, so you insist on it and stop being so arrogant.
If you don’t want to continue after two episodes of recording, your sister Qing will make sure to stagger your schedule with his so that you two will never see each other again."
The innocent Zhou Peipei couldn't understand what Shao Qing said about being arrogant, staggering the schedule, not renewing the contract, and she would never see the meaning of these words for the rest of her life. She thought it was another wisecrack similar to fishing for money in the clouds, so she smiled coquettishly.
.
But Weng Huaijing's face showed a faint blush, and he said angrily to Shao Qing: "Sister Qing, please stop talking nonsense. I really don't understand what you are talking about."
After Weng Huaijing said that, he simply turned his head and continued to face the wall of the living room.
Shao Qing had nothing to do with Weng Huaijing like this.
"Okay, okay, Sister Qing, stop talking nonsense. You should go to bed early. Today, the sub-column preparation team has sent an advance team to the imperial capital. Tomorrow we should start looking for suitable venues to rent for your show. We and
They have to send their site selection suggestions to the Weiyan work group before twelve o'clock tonight. I will fill in the suggestions for you and choose whether it should be near the Imperial Dance Theater or near Zhongguancun, they are both similar."
Zhou Peipei didn't know if she was hallucinating. At this moment, Weng Huaijing turned around and nodded to Shao Qing. She actually felt that there was something girlish and cute about him.
Shao Qing simply took out his mobile phone, edited this paragraph and sent it, then turned to Zhou Peipei and said: "That's it, Peipei, you have worked hard today. Everything is done. You can go there with me tomorrow."
Let's go to the studio and have a meal. If you run away later, let's move out and let you have a good rest. But it's troublesome, it's going to happen all day long."
After saying that, Shao Qing waved goodbye to Weng Huaijing, opened the door and put on his high heels to go home.
Classmate Zhou Peipei, who was once ambitious, felt like she was in a dilemma, and her steps followed Shao Qing unconsciously.
Fortunately, Weng Huaijing came to the rescue at this time: "Where are you going, Peipei? Are you afraid of me, or are you planning to resign? It seems that Sister Qing will have to trouble you again."
When Zhou Peipei heard this, she was so frightened that she shrank her feet back and quickly explained: "Professor Weng, I am not afraid of you, and I don't want to resign."
Shao Qing laughed out loud when she saw this scene. She held the door handle with her right hand and put the other hand on the door frame. She looked at Weng Huaijing and smiled: "Okay, okay, let's not tease this silly girl."
Already."
Shao Qing let go of her hand and walked a few steps into the living room. She quickly stretched out her hand to spread a few handfuls of Zhou Peipei's pear blossoms, and then faced the young workplace girl who was spread out like a lion with an aggrieved expression on her face and dared not speak in anger.
Dingzhou Peipei said:
"Remember to go to bed early and supervise your sister Huaijing to rest early. Sister Qing will teach you another lesson. In fact, your sister Huaijing doesn't like you calling her Professor Weng at all, but she won't tell you.
So I understand, from now on I will call her Sister Huai Jing or Sister Jing'er, whatever makes her sweet, watch more, learn more, speak more, do more, don't be afraid of making mistakes, only by making mistakes will you have room for improvement."
After that, he waved to Weng Huaijing, who was leaning against the wall of the entrance with a smile.
"Let's go, longing for you."
Weng Huaijing nodded and watched Shao Qing leave. She folded her hands and glanced at Zhou Peipei. She took a few steps out of the entrance hall and seemed to be planning to go back to the bedroom. After thinking about it, she walked to the coffee table and stretched out her hand to pick up an apple.
.
Zhou Peipei watched carefully and secretly as Weng Huaijing took the apple and put it into his mouth, took a small bite, and chewed it carefully in his mouth.
Weng Huaijing chewed slowly and finally swallowed this small mouthful of apple. She held the apple in her right hand and raised it emptyly. Her elbow rested on the back of her left hand in front of her chest. She looked at Zhou Peipei with a calm face.
"I'll go back to the room. I'll clean up the apples after I finish them. You should go to bed early."
Weng Huaijing turned his head and walked slowly to the master bedroom, his upper body still maintaining that posture.
Zhou Peipei seemed to see the female swordsman holding a long sword again, Shi Shiran walked away. Thinking of Shao Qing's instructions, Zhou Peipei mustered up all the courage in her body and shouted:
"Good night, sister Jinger."
Weng Huaijing stopped and took a small bite of the apple in his hand. He turned his back to Zhou Peipei and waved the hand holding the apple as a response.
But Zhou Peipei suddenly felt very satisfied. She controlled her movements and finished washing and tidying up gently.
Until she lay back on the second bed, she was still muttering:
"I called her Sister Jing'er, and I called her Sister Jing'er, and she responded to me."
Just like that, Zhou Peipei fell into a sweet dream with an intoxicated smile on her face.
