Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Seeing President Song's money-obsessed appearance, Li Xiaofeng said helplessly, "President Song, it's best if we don't get involved in matters of principle, but we can be flexible in some ways."

For example, if you have any relatives who need to find work, I can help you arrange something.

President Song thought for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

"I have a niece named Zheng Xiaojuan who has dreamed of becoming a star since she was a child. You are a big boss behind the scenes in the film and television industry. Could you consider supporting her dream?"

Li Xiaofeng frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "President Song, are you sure your niece's name is Zheng Xiaojuan and not Song Xiaojuan?"

President Song smiled and said, "Of course, she is not my biological niece, but she is better than my biological niece."

"What is the relationship between Zheng Xiaojuan and Secretary Zheng?"

President Song nodded in acknowledgment, "I have some family ties with Secretary Zheng, but that's not important. President Li, can you make the arrangements?"

Li Xiaofeng didn't know who Zheng Xiaojuan was, but he knew that she had definitely thrown a hot potato at him, and he had no choice but to take it.

Putting aside the fact that Zheng Xiaojuan is directly related to the 2 billion yuan loan, offending a leader like Secretary Zheng would have an immeasurable impact on a large company like the Li Group.

Small companies are fine, but the larger the company, the greater the risks that officials within the system pose, and these risks are often uncontrollable.

You don't have to fawn over people, but you'd better not offend them.

People within the system care about their reputation. From their perspective, this isn't a big deal; refusing to give them even this much face would be very offensive.

"Making arrangements is definitely not a problem, but, President Song, we need to make things clear beforehand. Not just anyone can make a living in the film and television industry."

If she hasn't had any prior training in this area, I can arrange some training for her to develop and discover her talents, but no one can guarantee it will work out; it all depends on fate.

"Well, that's easy to say!" Bank Manager Song said with a forced smile.

Li Xiaofeng said seriously, "President Song, this must be made clear, especially to Zheng Xiaojuan herself, otherwise we will have to find someone else to help."

He made his meaning very clear: he was willing to help and would give me face, but he couldn't put me in a difficult position.

President Song smiled meaningfully, nodded and said, "Alright then, but you must do your best where you're supposed to!"

Hearing what President Song said, Li Xiaofeng felt relieved. He didn't care what kind of benefits President Song had exchanged with others behind the scenes, as long as it didn't involve him.

After the girl named Zheng Xiaojuan was brought over, Li Xiaofeng took a look at her. She was an ordinary girl, with a looks score of around 6.5. With makeup and clothing, she could get to 7.5, but she didn't even reach 8.

With looks like that, entering the entertainment industry isn't impossible, but it will definitely be much more difficult than for other girls, and they'll need to be absolutely outstanding in acting, singing, and other areas.

The problem is that this girl is an amateur; she has no experience in acting or singing and has no particular talent whatsoever.

However, this girl's face revealed a fairy-like pride. Even though her makeup and outfit combined didn't even score 8 points, she exuded a sense of superiority that was 9.5 points or higher.

"Mr. Li, right? Uncle Song told me you're going to promote me, isn't that right? Let me make this clear beforehand: I don't do kissing scenes, I don't do scenes with explicit content, and I absolutely will not accept any unspoken rules!"

Zheng Xiaojuan held her head high and puffed out her chest, as if she really felt like a little princess who was about to become a big star, and that she was doing you a favor by coming here.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. Our company is a legitimate company, and it's a top-tier film and television company in China. How could we possibly do anything against a woman's will?"

Anyone who wants to get film and television resources must have acting skills as a prerequisite, and of course, their appearance must also meet the requirements.

I heard from Bank Manager Song that you're a complete novice, and have no prior experience in the film and television industry..."

“I’ve played a few roles before!” Zheng Xiaojuan interrupted Li Xiaofeng, somewhat unconvinced.

"Are there any lines?"

"This... I think it was there, but the director cut it out later!"

"Are there any close-up shots?"

"It should have been there originally, but it was probably cut by the director!"

Li Xiaofeng chuckled inwardly and said somewhat irritably, "Even if you don't know much about the film and television industry, you should be able to understand Dingdian Media's position in the industry if you do a little research."

I will certainly give President Song face, but we are not a makeshift team; all the artists must possess a certain level of artistic literacy.

Our company has a dedicated training institution, and all our artists, even those who graduated from formal film and television schools, receive targeted training.

Actually, this can be considered a company benefit!

"Do you charge for this training?" Zheng Xiaojuan was a little suspicious, wondering if there was some kind of trick involved.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "The company does not charge for training its artists for the time being, but it will keep a record. When an artist's income reaches a certain level, this fee will be deducted from the artist's income."

After all, we're in business, not a charity. Training artists is to make money for the company, not to benefit others.

"What? You charge for training your employees? Are you trying to rip us off?!"

"In fact, our company has always had a good reputation in the industry, and artists who really want to make it in the film and television industry are very willing to accept the training arranged by the company."

Since the company has invested a lot in them, they will definitely provide them with resources so that they can earn back the company's investment. In this way, they also gain fame in the entertainment industry.

The more the company invests in them, the more it values ​​them, and the more opportunities and resources it will provide them in the future—it's a win-win situation!

Seeing Zheng Xiaojuan's hesitant expression, Li Xiaofeng smiled and said in a calm tone, "Don't worry, I will definitely give President Song face."

I'll make an exception for you; all your training will be free, and we will never ask you for it back. However, you must abide by all the company's rules and regulations, just like the other artists, and follow company procedures.

Zheng Xiaojuan said excitedly, "Okay, then how long will it take me to become a star?"

Li Xiaofeng said somewhat impatiently, "Nobody can say for sure. It depends on your efforts and talent. Nobody succeeds easily. But don't worry, I will definitely give you the opportunities that are meant for you!"

After chatting briefly with Zheng Xiaojuan, Li Xiaofeng sent her away.
