Chapter 332: You Can Quit

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and gave a faint smile. “The Empire Entertainment doesn’t belong to a single person. If it suffers too much loss under a person’s management, it means that this person has no ability of management. In that case, I have the right to fire that incompetent person.” With that, her face turned cold and she looked straight at the camera and said word by word, “As businessmen, we have one and only purpose, that is to make money. We don’t make dirty money, but we won’t allow anyone to ruin our company.”

“Miss Tang, are you trying to kick your uncles and cousins out of the Empire Group?”

Tang Xi turned her gaze to that journalist and smiled. “If I am, I wouldn’t merely fire him. As I’ve said, I fired Tang Hao, because he is incompetent, but if he is willing to start from the most basic job and learn how to do his job properly, the door of the Empire Group is still open to him and I’ll welcome him to join the company again.”

The crowd all nodded approvingly. When other journalists were about to ask her questions, Tang Xi suddenly said, “Let’s call it an end for today.” Then she turned to leave. The security guards came up and stopped the journalists from approaching Tang Xi.

“President Tang, the meeting room has been prepared. Are you going to hold a meeting now or…” As soon as Tang Xi entered the company, a middle-aged man following her whispered to her.

Tang Xi looked back at that man who looked mature and cautious. She found the information of the man in her mind. He was the vice president of the Empire Entertainment, Yang Le. Tang Xi refused, “I don’t have time to hold a meeting today. I’ll just announce several matters. Call everyone to the meeting room and give me the profile of all the employees of the Empire Entertainment.”

Yang Le nodded, and looked back at his assistant, and the latter hurriedly left to perform Tang Xi’s order.

…

The Empire Entertainment had a great deal of employees, so the meeting was held in an auditorium. Fifteen minutes later, a big crowd had gathered in the auditorium. Tang Xi walked in, looked around at the crowd and raised her eyebrows. Yang Le came up to her as he said, “Our company has too many employees, so there are only the management, actors, actresses, singers and agents here.”

The lights of the auditorium were all on and Tang Xi could see their faces clearly. Seeing her come in, some of them were about to stand up, but Tang Xi raised her hand to signal them not to stand up. She then walked up to the platform. “I’m glad to meet you here.”

The people began to applaud. Tang Xi raised her hand and they stopped

Tang Xi continued, “I know you’re all very busy, so I’ll be brief.”

“Firstly, I hope the planning department can give me a schedule on how to market our employees. I don’t need any employees who can’t bring us benefits. Since you’ve signed a contract with the company, you have to work.”

“Secondly, the best agents of the company can’t only work for A-listers who already have had enough popularity. I hope you can pay more attention to other actors, actresses and singers of the company.”

“Thirdly, the actors and actresses have the right of choice. We shall not try to gain the attention of the public with our employees’ privacy. I hope they can gain attention with their works.”

“Fourthly, actors, actresses and singers of the company should develop in directions suitable for them. If a singer is suitable for singing love songs, he shouldn’t go singing rap. Likewise, if he is good at dancing, he shouldn’t play rock and roll!”

“As for the management of the company, I hope you can give me a comprehensive proposal on the development of the company. Don’t let me find you discriminating against some employees, or playing hidden rules. If I find out about any of these things happening, I think you already know how Tang Hao has ended up! Let it be a warning to you…”

Tang Xi looked at the employees under the platform. Some of them exchanged glances in doubt, some looked surprised, some looked disdainful, and some looked very excited. Tang Xi’s words meant that they would also have a chance!

But some senior executives were blushing…

Tang Xi looked around at them and said seriously, “I hope every employee of our company can become a star, and I hope our company can become a famous company, not an obscure one, understand?”

No one responded. Tang Xi folded her arms against her chest and said soberly, “Now it’s time for you to prove your ability. Please show me whether you’re really capable, or just a piece of trash like Tang Hao.”

An agent stood up and said to her, “President Tang, it’s easier said than done. It’s almost impossible to achieve your goal. No entertainment company has the ability to make all its employees stars. Some actors and actresses are just impossible to become famous!”

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “Then you can quit!”

The agent froze and stared at Tang Xi with wide open eyes. Tang Xi smiled. “Why not have a try?” She walked off the platform, stopped in front of Xu Fang and looked at her with a smile. “Miss Xu, it’s not a big deal for you to win a role for an employee of our company in your new play, right?”

“And it’s also easy for you to acquire a small role for one of your colleagues, right, Miss He?” Tang Xi looked at He Yeqian and smiled, asking, “Yeqian, am I right?”

He Yeqian smiled and pursed her lips. “Yes, it’s not difficult.”

Tang Xi looked at other A-listers sitting in the front row, and asked with a frown, “Is it hard for you?”

They all shook their heads. Tang Xi shrugged and turned to the singers, asking, “Is it really hard for you to give your colleagues a chance to show up in your concert or TV shows?”

The famous singers also shook their heads. Tang Xi pursed her lips. “See, it’s just like what I said.”

She then scowled and turned to those unknown actors, actresses and singers, saying, “Since your colleagues agree to give you chances, please work harder. Actors and actresses must show your acting skills and singers must try your best. Don’t let us down, and…” Tang Xi looked at the A-listers and smiled as she said, “If anyone can make any of your colleagues a famous star, I’ll reward him or her a house on the First Ring Road of the capital. I know many of you still rent houses, because the house prices are too expensive, but as you know, the Empire Group is also engaged in real estate, so it’s not difficult for me to reward you a house in the capital!”

Upon hearing her words, some A-listers who looked reluctant suddenly changed their expressions and their eyes lit up.
