Chapter 313: Joining Lanpian Film and Television

Su Tang nodded in agreement, then smiled slightly.

"Being strict is good. This way, we can improve quickly. Besides, we are both newcomers with no filming experience. Only with such strictness can the resulting movie avoid being too bad."

"That's true!"

Jiang Xue also nodded along. They were, after all, newcomers with no filming experience, possessing neither the acting skills of veteran actors nor the popularity of those trending idols.

If the filming wasn't strict, the resulting movie would probably be unwatchable.

Jiang Xue sighed, as if thinking of something, and turned to look at Su Tang.

"What are your thoughts on joining Lanpian Film and Television?"

"I want to join."

Su Tang pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

Just a few days into the shoot, Luo Xiao had approached them.

He expressed his hope that they would join Lanpian Film and Television, promising that once they joined, they would be the first to be considered whenever there was a suitable script in the company.

He would also arrange excellent agents for them.

She had thought about this for a long time.

If she chose to join Lanpian Film and Television, she could be certain that she would never lack roles in the future. After all, when their own film company cast movies, it would definitely prioritize its own actors.

Furthermore, the compensation offered by Lanpian Film and Television was very good.

But if she chose not to join Lanpian Film and Television, her future would be unknown.

After all, she didn't know how the current movie would turn out. If it did well, perhaps other crews would invite her to film.

But if the results were poor, it would be much harder to get roles.

Therefore, after much thought, she finally decided to join Lanpian Film and Television.

Of course, a more important reason was that Lanpian Film and Television didn't mind her lack of acting experience and let her play the female lead; this was undoubtedly a huge favor.

For a student, wanting to play the female lead in their first film was impossible unless they had a very strong backer.

So, whether out of gratitude or for her own future, she had no reason to refuse the invitation from Lanpian Film and Television.

"Hee hee, since you've chosen to join, I'll join too."

Upon hearing Su Tang's reply, Jiang Xue laughed happily.

She had also been thinking about joining Lanpian Film and Television, and their decisions had once again coincided.

"Then after today's filming ends, we'll find Director Luo Xiao, finalize this matter, and sign the contract."

"Okay!" The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Start working, start working." At this moment, the shouts of the production crew came from the distance.

Upon hearing this, Su Tang hurried over; the next scene required her participation.

In a basement in Jiang City.

"Xiao Rou, thank you so much." Hearing the news brought by Shen Rou, Zhang Lan hugged Shen Rou with a look of pleasant surprise.

Shen Rou broke free from Zhang Lan's arms and said with a serious expression.

"You shouldn't thank me; you should thank Mr. Chen the most. It was Mr. Chen who offered such a high appearance fee."

"Yeah, I know. I don't have the ability to thank him right now, but once the studio is up and running, I will definitely find a way to thank him." Zhang Lan nodded and said.

With her current status and strength, even if she wanted to thank him, she had nothing to offer. Therefore, she could only keep this favor in her heart for now and repay him once the studio developed.

Listening to Zhang Lan's words, Shen Rou nodded and then asked.

"By the way, what songs are you planning to sing at the sports meet? I need to record them and give the song titles to the host."

"The song list is right here." Zhang Lan said, handing a prepared song list to Shen Rou.

"However, two of them are songs we recently wrote. What do you think?"

These two songs were written by them during this period. They hadn't been released on music platforms yet, and they planned to sing them at the sports meet to see how the audience would react.

If the reaction wasn't good, they planned to revise them before uploading them to the platform.

"If it's only two songs, that's no problem." Upon hearing this, Shen Rou did not refuse. After all, there were many songs to be sung, and singing two self-written songs was harmless.

Four days later, the sports meet was held as scheduled.

The husband-and-wife hosts, Ye Feng and Chen Xuan, looked at the gymnasium with even more people than before. Their expressions held less shock and more calmness.

They had already hosted three events for Mingri Group: two sports meets and one annual meeting.

Every time they hosted an event, the company would undergo some changes. Either the number of employees increased, or the number of companies increased.

This time was no different. Upon inquiry, they learned that since the annual meeting, two more companies had been added: one was Lanpian Film and Television, and the other was an investment company.

It was unexpected, yet reasonable. It was Mr. Chen's company, after all; such changes seemed quite normal.

The sports meet began on time. The rules were basically the same as the last time, so the two hosted without any awkwardness.

However, there were some differences this time. In addition to the increase in personnel at the sports meet, Mr. Chen was surprisingly not present.

According to Mr. Chen's assistant, it seemed Mr. Chen had some matters to attend to and would need some time to get to the gymnasium.

Regarding this, as a hired host, he didn't say much.

He continued to host the sports meet at his own pace. The sports meet didn't become boring because Mr. Chen wasn't there; on the contrary, the employees were even more excited at the sports meet.

That was true; with the Group's top leader watching on stage, how could these employees let loose?

Soon, the sports meet entered the break segment, and some people began to perform programs in the center of the venue.

This time, the performances seemed to be a notch higher than the last time. At the same time, several singers went on stage to sing, and they all performed quite well.

Among them were two songs that hadn't been heard before, which felt quite good.

As the performances ended, the sports meet continued.

At Mingri Group, Chen Mo sat at his desk, his brows furrowed, thinking about a plan to spend money.

He had thought of many ways to spend money, but given his current assets, he still didn't qualify.

After all, the system had requirements: the budget of the companies he started could not exceed the company's existing funds, and he could not take out loans.

Therefore, with his current assets, it was quite difficult to find an industry that could quickly consume funds while also losing money.

Buzz, buzz! The phone beside him suddenly rang.

Chen Mo picked up his phone and took a look. It was a message from Shen Rou.

"Mr. Chen, the sports meet is about to end."

Hmm! The sports meet is about to end.

Chen Mo's brows raised slightly as he looked at the message from Shen Rou. He then stood up, walked quickly out of the office, and called for his driver, Yang Dahai.
