Chapter 035: Head to head
Generally speaking, both parties make an appointment to meet, and in the official name, they will be at the place where one of them meets. But this time, it's really because it's inconvenient on either side. The two companies were surrounded by reporters and fans outside, so they had to make an appointment outside.
Because it was the Xia Group that took the initiative to find them, the location was determined by STARDOM's side, and after careful consideration, Zhang Jinlian finally found a suitable place.
A high-end café far away from the city, mainly because it is different from ordinary cafes, and it pays great attention to the privacy of customers, so Zhang Jinlian chose here.
Walking into the café, Situ Jiluo and Zhang Jinlian were taken by the waiter to the box on the second floor. As soon as he walked in, the man who was already sitting inside immediately stood up from his seat and introduced himself.
"Hello, I am the general manager of Xia's Group, Zhan Chengxi. Nice to meet you. ”
There are few people who don't know Situ Jiluo, but although Zhan Chengxi's opening remarks look very enthusiastic, they are full of politeness, so that Situ Jiluo suddenly feels that something is wrong without knowing what he is doing. I always feel that the other party is hostile to him.
"Hmm."
Just responded, Situ Jiluo bypassed Zhan Chengxi and sat down in the seat inside. Zhang Jinlian, who was following him, smiled at Zhan Chengxi a little awkwardly, and then followed behind Situ Jiluo. Originally, she wanted to sit down in the seat next to him, but Situ Jiluo suddenly stopped her.
"Secretary-General Zhang, the company's affairs still need your help to deal with, and I can do it alone."
Hearing the president's instructions, Zhang Jinlian didn't say anything, just politely said something, and then withdrew from the box, leaving the two men alone inside. When women chat, men can't interject, and similarly, it's the same for men to chat, and it's not convenient for a lady to be present, so Zhang Jinlian consciously left first.
Picking up the coffee that the waiter had just brought in, Situ Jiluo just took a sip and put it down, then looked up and said to the man sitting across from him.
"May I ask Manager Zhan why he has the leisure to ask me out today?"
The domineering and high-mindedness revealed by Situ Jiluo's tone are so impossible to ignore, but Zhan Chengxi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so naturally he will not retreat because of his momentum.
"That's the case, your company's artists have had frequent scandals with our artists recently, I think we should discuss the solution carefully?"
Even if he wanted to ask about the relationship between Situ Jiluo and Zi Ling, Zhan Chengxi knew that he couldn't ask what he cared about first, so he took out the matter of Jameste first. He believed that Situ Jiluo was a smart man and would be able to understand the meaning of his words.
"Oh? What countermeasures should we discuss? ”
Raising the coffee cup again and bringing it to his mouth, Situ Jiluo was a little surprised. I have to say that the other party is very good at talking, so he understood the meaning of the other party's words at once. But he pretended to be stupid, in order to hear what cards the other party was going to play.
"De Ling love was originally created out of nothing, since it is all media hype, I don't want Jamesde's matter to affect our Ziling."
sighed heavily in his heart, Zhan Chengxi went around in circles here in order not to waste time, so he directly picked out the matter and said it. How could he not know that Situ Jiluo was deliberately pretending to be stupid, at this time, whoever spoke first would lose, but he had to speak first.
After hearing such words, Situ Jiluo's face couldn't help but sink, especially Zhan Chengxi's last sentence "We are purple spirits", he was not very happy in his heart. So soon, the politeness was withdrawn, and it returned to the cold attitude of the past. looked straight at Zhan Chengxi, who was sitting opposite, and thought in his heart.
"They are all operators of entertainment companies, and you are also in the entertainment industry, I believe you must know the lethality of scandals to a star, especially a female star. What's more, something happened to Jansted again......"
Seeing that Situ Jiluo was silent, Zhan Chengxi had an ominous premonition, but for the sake of the company and Ziling's acting career in the future, he still continued to speak patiently. However, before he could finish speaking, Situ Jiluo interrupted him and said something that made him stunned.
"The Jansted affair is a headache for us here. But what to do? He is now missing, and the whole company has been looking for him since the news came out, but he is still missing. ”
Originally, Zhan Chengxi wanted James to come forward to clarify the scandal with Ziling, but when he heard that he had disappeared, his brows were deeply furrowed.
"Manager Zhan, let's say something ugly. We, Shide, have been rumoring the scandal with you Ziling for several days, and you have not responded. Now that something has happened to our Shide, you immediately want to get rid of it, right? ”
Seeing Zhan Chengxi's confused and helpless look, the corners of Situ Jiluo's mouth raised a smug smile. Raising an eyebrow, he continued to throw the bomb.
This time, he no longer pretended to be stupid, but pointed the finger at the other party word by word. He may be too direct, but when something like this happens, he is anxious to clear up the relationship, no matter who he is, he will have such thoughts, Situ Jiluo is understandable to say this, so that Zhan Chengxi can't make a mistake.
"That's not what I meant, I..."
Situ Jiluo's words made Zhan Chengxi's face turn green in an instant, and even his speech became stammering. Although he didn't mean that at all, the other party's words poked straight into his soft spots.
"I'm joking with you, Shide's matter, we will take care of it, and it won't affect the Xia Group or your artists, you can rest assured."
With a chuckle, Situ Jiluo lightly assured. The reason why he said that just now was just to scare Zhan Chengxi, even if he didn't care about Zi Ling, it was impossible for him to let something happen to the Xia Group.
Thinking of the Xia Group, the leader who stood alone, his heart ached faintly. It was a pain that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, a pain he didn't want to face, a wound he didn't want to touch. In short, now he can only look at her from afar.
"Hehe, I'll trouble you with this matter."
Hearing Situ Jiluo's words, Zhan Chengxi was finally relieved, but at the same time, he was also embarrassed by his reaction just now. This matter has been dealt with, and now it is time for another matter, a matter that worries him.
"If not, I'll have to make an announcement later."
Situ Jiluo didn't know what Lu Dao was doing, and he would subconsciously dislike the man in front of him, but he wouldn't show it. Looking at the time on the table below, he said it politely.
Seeing that Situ Jiluo was about to leave, Zhan Chengxi panicked, and spoke directly without thinking about it in his heart.
"Another thing is that you and Zi Ling were photographed in the hotel last night......"
