Chapter 317: WEREN’T YOU AN ACTRESS TILL YESTERDAY?!
Jun Liqing and Yu Lian took their seats on the couch. She then asked, " So what is the news till now? "
Jun Liqing passed two folders to Ning Mei and said as she glanced at the two confused young men standing there. " Ma’am, they are the two men, who I have shortlisted. Their popularity is almost dead but knowing them, if they are groomed well, they have high prospective in the industry. "
Ning Mei nodded as she went through the portfolios of the men.
One of their names was Xu Ting, and the other one’s name was Tang Xuhang.
Xu Ting had not much in his portfolio. He was a singer, who was really good at singing and playing guitar. He two years back participated in a reality show, and had won it too. At that time, his popularity was sigh high. But unfortunately he could not survive in the internal mess of the industry, where nepotism and unjustness of power runs heavily.
She lifted her head to take a good look at his face. Xu Ting was twenty three had good facial features, he was only not groomed properly. Also he really had to work on his body.
The next one was Tang Xuhang. Tang Xuhang had some good fame until some years back. He had started as a child actor and had acted in quite many films and dramas. But now he does not appear in any of those nor does many people even remember his name.
Ning Mei took a good look at him. He was
also twenty three and on stark contrary to the former guy, this guy was doned with perfect clothes and looks. And honestly, Ning Mei felt him to be a little funnily cranky.
She then putting her hands on the table, said, " Their portfolios are okay. But I need to see whether they can really prove themselves to be worth of Sky Entertainment’s time and energy. "
Looking at the two guys, Ning Mei found their faces that seemed confused to the max.
She smiled at them and said, " Alright. I will ask you a few questions, it would be appreciated. "
The boys went dazed for a moment. Xu Ting was the one who came to his senses after a couple of second and simply nodded. While Tang Xuhang’s eyes widened the next moment and the very next second he came up to Ning Mei’s table. Then putting both his hands on the table, he asked with wide, astonished eyes, " Aren’t you Ning Mei?! "
Everyone seemed to be taken aback by him. Ning Mei blinked and nodded her head, " Yes. "
Tang Xuhang got more exicted hearing this and he laughed, " I knew it! How can I not recognise you, Goddess?!! "
Ning Mei smiled tightly and said, " Alright. Now get back to your place. We need to get back to official work. "
Hearing her authoritive voice, Tang Xuhang got blinked and then noddingly got back. But then a thought stuck in his head and he says, " Huh? But why are you here and why are you interviewing us? "
He finally asked the question that was going on in his mind since he saw her. Xu Ting also looked forward to the answer because he was confused of why this recently popular celebrity was taking their interview.
From what they knew, Jun Liqing is now the Vice President and the CEO does not come to the company.
Before Ning Mei could answer, it was Jun Liqing who answered, " She is our CEO. "
" What?! " Both were stuck dumb with shock. They looked at Ning Mei in unison. She was the CEO!
Tang Xuhang looked almost devasted by the news and he exclaimed, " But why?! Weren’t you can actress till yesterday? I haven’t even done fanboying to my heart’s content! "
Ning Mei found his reaction amusing. She raised a brow and asked, " You are my fan? "
Tang Xuhang nodded his head like a hen pecking on grains as he said, " Ever since the first day, I saw you. You are a Goddess afterall! "
Ning Mei chuckled as she heard him. It was hardly a month since she gained popularity and she already started gaining admirers like this.
" I am still an actress, worry not. But I am also the new CEO of Sky Entertainment. " She said.
Tang Xuhang and Xu Ting nodded in understanding. But Tang Xuhang wondered how he missed such a big news about Ning Mei!
Then Ning Mei smiled cheekily as she said, " Should I tell you two a secret? " Both the guys nodded their head, and Ning Mei gestured them to come closer making them lean forward involuntarily.
" Except the people in the room, no one in the company or the public knows about it. "
Xu Ting looked surprised, while Tang Xuhang had an extreme reaction. He widened his eyes like sausages and asked in a hushed tone, " We are the privileged ones to be knowing about this news of you ?! "
Ning Mei nodded and Tang Xuhang looked so exicted as if he could grow two little wings and fly high around the room. Ning Mei honestly could never understand the exictment! She never fangirled about anyone except chasing Su Han for a really long time, before giving up. Then getting crazily obsessed over Gu Yeze!
But it was fun.
Finally after all the excitement subdued, Ning Mei questioned Xu Ting about his background and about himself.
Ning Mei realised that Xu Ting was not a too much loud spoken guy. He was more of that cool dude, who doesn’t like to talk much kind of guy. Something that went well with his image of a singer.
But Ning Mei also understood that he wasn’t pretending it, but it was what he was really like.
Xu Ting had a nice career path until after a few months of winning the singing reality show. But then he started getting absurd offers, and was threatened that if he did not accept it, his projects will be snatched away from him.
