Chapter 12: The Recording Site
Translated and edited by KChandra
Gongxi Qiao noticed someone looking at him and met the other person’s gaze. He smiled politely and slightly nodded his head. He noticed that the two people who might be bodyguards looked very nervous, and instead of going forward, he said, “Are the three gentlemen okay?”
“I’m fine, thank you for your concern.” Xi Qing’s eyes rested on the tip of Gongxi Qiao’s nose and the corner of his mouth, and after a pause, he said, “Just now, I have frightened you. If this gentleman doesn’t mind, can I invite you to have dinner to apologize?”
The smile on Gongxi Qiao’s face remained unchanged, but there was more coldness in his eyes: “It’s just some paint that fell off. You didn’t do it on purpose, and you’ve already compensated for it, so there’s no need be so polite. There are people at home waiting for me to have dinner together, so I can only thank you for your kindness.” He pulled open his car door and said with a smile, “I guess you guys still have things to take care of… I’ll go first, bye.”
Watching the other party close the car door and speed away in the car, the two bodyguards turned their heads in unison to look at Xi Qing with some embarrassment in their eyes.
The boss’s invitation to a handsome man was rejected. This kind of humiliating thing, they didn’t want to observe the scene at all.
“How much compensation was paid just now?”
“Fifty thousand. With the price of that car, not counting the insurance, the refinishing will only cost so much at most.”
Xi Qing listened to the bodyguard in silence before asking rhetorically, “Do you think he’s short of money?”
The bodyguard was silent.
“It’s time to deal with this matter of internal traitors,” Xi Qing pulled his tie to reveal his sexy Adam’s apple, “Today they dare to put their hands on my car, tomorrow they’ll dare to hire a killer to buy my life. When the Xi family falls into my hands, there will be no need for others to dictate things.”
“Sir, what you mean is…”
Xi Qing’s sullen face did not retort. His left hand gripped his slightly painful right wrist, and his face was chilly.
To Gongxi Qiao, someone who inexplicably offered hospitality was bound to be no good. Although he didn’t know the identity of the few people just now, he could be sure that the leader was definitely not simple.
The car they drove was obviously refitted, which was why there was no damage in that kind of impact. Anyone who could ride in such a car must be very concerned about safety. They would even have their vehicles serviced daily, so how could it break down on the road?
In his previous life, he spent a lifetime scheming. What he disliked most in this life was scheming for people’s lives, so it was better to stay away from such people.
He just wanted to be a quiet son of a coal mine tycoon.
When he returned home, he mentioned the contract to his parents, and not surprisingly, both of them supported his choice.
The two rarely objected to Gongxi Qiao’s decisions. As long as Gongxi Qiao didn’t fall into bad habits, they would only be happy with any decision.
Early the next morning, Gongxi Qiao took He Peng to Senhe Entertainment.
The people who received Gongxi Qiao were not only Chen Ke, whom he had met yesterday, but also Senhe Entertainment’s president Xiang Hong.
From his appearance, Xiang Hong was a very ordinary middle-aged man with a touch of bookishness, less like a businessman and more like an educator. But how could a person who could get a piece of the pie in the entertainment industry be an ordinary person?
Seeing Gongxi Qiao, Xiang Hong spoke to him in a friendly manner, first thanking him for his willingness to choose Senhe’s company, then complimenting him a bit before finally talking about the current situation of their company.
“Qiao Shao must have understood the current situation of our company before he was ready to sign,” Xiang Hong smiled bitterly, then said, “This circle is rapidly changing. Our company isn’t as well established as the big companies, and we can’t retain talent. I thought there was no hope for us.”
“Call me Xiao Qiao, Mr. Xiang,” said Gongxi Qiao, flipping through the contract in his hand, which was a bit different from the one he was shown before. It clearly listed the things the company would not ask him to do instead of a vague sentence, which was almost considered big shot treatment, so it was clear that Senhe was indeed very sincere. “Ringstar has its own merits, our company has ours, each with their own characteristics.” After saying this, he signed his name on the contract.
After seeing Gongxi Qiao sign his name on the contract, Xiang Hong cracked a smile and said, “Since Xiao Qiao is already a member of our company, we will arrange a professional team for you. You can also mention any requests you have, and we will satisfy you as much as possible.”
Gongxi Qiao was only a newcomer, but in Xiang Hong’s opinion, as long as this young man didn’t die, he was a sure fire star. After his brief contact with Gongxi Qiao, almost no shortcomings could be found in this young man’s words and actions. He was a young man with high emotional intelligence.
When it came to signing artists, the company wasn’t afraid of someone with bad acting or singing skills, but afraid of somebody being so brainlessly stupid that they would end up self destructing. Even a god-like management team couldn’t save such a person.
They were so generous to Gongxi Qiao right now, not because he was filthy rich, but because he knew this person would give them greater returns. He had faith in his own vision.
“I heard Chen Ke say that you’re going to participate in a program recording with the ‘Princess of the Closed Moon’ crew on Golden Orchid TV tomorrow, so we’ve arranged an assistant to help Mr. He,” Xiang Hong looked at He Peng, then said, “Mr. He’s salary in the future will also be paid by the company.” He looked at his watch, “It’s noon, why don’t I be the host and we all have a casual meal together?”
“Then I’ll let you break the bank, boss.” Gongxi Qiao did not refuse, nor did he ask if this assistant was reliable, smiling as he handed the contract to He Peng.

Gongxi Qiao had lunch with Xiang Hong at noon, and in the evening, some entertainment media reported the matter.
‘Gongxi Qiao had a meal with Senhe’s boss, during which the atmosphere was cordial. He may have signed a contract with Senhe’
‘Senhe’s boss dined with Gongxi Qiao in the capital, suspected to pay big money to cultivate him?’
Gongxi Qiao signing a contract with a company was something that the media had been concerned about for a long time. At the moment, Gongxi Qiao was popular, and his role as Xu Ruiheng had attracted a large number of female fans from 50 years old all the way down to 12 years old, so as long as there was news about him, there was no need to worry about its popularity.
The fans were worried about Gongxi Qiao’s future development, and many of them came out to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the major entertainment companies, but they never expected that the male god would end up signing with Senhe. However, when they heard that Senhe’s boss even personally invited him to a meal in order to sign a contract with their male god, they all felt satisfied that the male god was valued by the agency, which would help his future development.
That afternoon, Senhe Entertainment’s boss admitted the matter himself in front of reporters.
“Gongxi Qiao is a very outstanding young man, and I’m very happy that he was able to sign to our company. The company will also do its best to support his future development,” Xiang Hong smiled with a kind face in front of the camera, “originally we wanted to hold a signing conference to warmly welcome Xiao Qiao to join us, but unfortunately Xiao Qiao has been busy with his work recently, and we couldn’t bear to bother him, so we had to cancel the conference.”

Hearing the word busy, the reporter immediately smelled the hint of fresh news and asked curiously, “Excuse me, Mr. Xiang, do you mean that Gongxi Qiao is going to participate in the shooting of a new production?”
“There are many scripts that have been offered to Xiao Qiao. Our company won’t interfere much with Xiao Qiao’s choice, but I believe that Xiao Qiao won’t fail to meet everyone’s expectations.” Xiang Hong smilingly touched his slightly protruding stomach, full of innocence.
The reporters interviewing him almost threw the microphone at his face. Such words were as good as not saying anything. Was it a joke to him?
Luckily, entertainment reporters were skilled in writing, and the news that night turned out to be that Gongxi Qiao may be involved in a big production, but for confidentiality reasons, the details could not be disclosed for the time being.
As for whether Gongxi Qiao was really going to be involved in shooting a big production, huh, who cares?
Golden Orchid TV was a satellite TV platform that developed in recent years. In recent years, because of the dramas and variety shows they produced, they excelled in capturing the preferences of young people, so they took over the field in the ratings.
Previously, because they weren’t satisfied with the offer of ‘Princess of the Closed Moon’, they ultimately let Red Light TV buy the first broadcast rights. Only after seeing the drama become a big hit did they rush to get the broadcast rights.
For the sake of the drama’s ratings, they invited several of the main cast members of the drama to participate in the recording of the variety show ‘Happy Fun’ to promote it.
This was also the first time Gongxi Qiao and Zhou Huaisheng appeared in public at the same time after the scandal broke out. It wasn’t clear whether the program team did it intentionally or unintentionally, but the two were seated together.
As soon as Gongxi Qiao entered the stage, a loud applause rang out from the audience. Zhou Huaisheng, who entered in front of him, had a stiff smile on his face, and the photographer very professionally took a close-up on his face.
“Everyone is so enthusiastic, director. We’ll have to ask someone to check if the lights in the studio have been shattered by everyone’s enthusiasm,” male host Du Cheng said to Gongxi Qiao, “Qiao Shao, if the props are damaged, are you willing to pay for it?”
Gongxi Qiao smiled and said, “If the damage was caused by my fans’ enthusiastic screaming, I’m willing to pay for it.”
Once this statement was made, there were even more enthusiastic screams from the audience than before.
Du Cheng made a scared face, “Even if you dare to compensate, we don’t dare to ask for it, or else there will be a sit-in demonstration in front of our TV station tomorrow.”
“No way,” Gongxi Qiao laughed lightly, “they’re all very nice.”
At these words, Du Cheng flew to cover his ears, and sure enough, there was another scream that shook the ceiling. This time, among the screamers was the hostess Xiao Wei.
“It’s over, even Wei Wei has followed the mutiny,” Du Cheng released his hands from covering his ears and fired up the atmosphere with a few words, worthy of being the number one host of Golden Orchid TV. He was very good at controlling the atmosphere of the scene.
After the fans finally calmed down a bit, Du Cheng brought up the topic of the male and female leads, but apparently the audience wasn’t as enthusiastic as when Gongxi Qiao appeared on stage.
It was feared that Zhou Huaisheng also did not expect this scene today. His thunder as the main actor was actually stolen by a third male lead. When the show aired, Zhou Huaisheng was going to be ridiculed by his rivals in the circle.
Du Cheng knew in his heart that a large part of the audience at the show was here for Gongxi Qiao. He had heard that the price of live tickets had been inflated five or six times on the Internet, but despite this, there were still people willing to pay for them, which showed Gongxi Qiao’s ability.
But the circle was full of such artists who started out popular throughout the entertainment industry but ended up in obscurity, so Du Cheng wasn’t surprised.
A moment of stardom was nothing. Those who could thrive in the long run were the real big shots.
