The next day, in the office of the Star Glory Group, Jiang Zhi stared at the date of the news and was very surprised.
Why had the investigation happened a week earlier?
She turned the ballpoint pen and drew lines on the white paper, thinking about the reason for the error.
“The number of Wu Dai’s social network fans has increased by 700,000!”
Xie Yun rushed into the office with his computer in his arms. He said excitedly, “The advertisers and brands who are temporarily watching because of Jiang Lu’s influence are calling to discuss the schedule and time. They all showed their willingness to hire Wu Dai as their spokesperson.
“Wu Dai’s fans are also slowly beginning to ask for clarification and are publicizing the misunderstanding that happened some time ago.
“Jiang Lu’s bet with him has been mentioned again, but this time, the public opinion is on our side. The netizens are all urging Jiang Lu to fulfill her promise!”
Xie Yun’s face was flushed red. He used two chargers to keep his three mobile phones running. He kept communicating and maintaining contact with the media and advertisers. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhi’s extremely calm state. He was a little embarrassed as he scratched his head and said.
“I’m sorry for questioning your judgment and decision.”
Jiang Zhi smiled lightly. She did not seem to have taken this matter to heart. She asked if Wu Dai’s acting skills had improved recently.
Jiang Lu, who had originally planned to stand up for her brand, was now trapped in a hotel room. When she saw the criticism and curses from the netizens, she was in a terrible mood and replied to two comments from the netizens.
“Why should the problem with the brand be the artiste’s fault? Quality control is not something I can control!”
Ring ring ring!
The phone rang, and the manager’s curses came from the other end, “Are you crazy? It’s too late to shut up now, how could you show up? Quickly delete the comments! Follow the bet and transfer the endorsement fee to Jiang Zhi. Release the screenshots of it, at least maintain your image!
“Stop causing trouble, or else it will affect the company. You know what the consequences are!”
The agent hung up the call. Jiang Lu gritted her teeth in hatred. She could only transfer the eight million endorsement fee to Jiang Zhi in full. Her fingertips that had intercepted the recording were cold. She secretly swore that she would get back everything that she had lost from Jiang Zhi!
“Eight million yuan has been transferred to your account.”
Jiang Zhi’s eyes were slightly raised as she listened to the mechanized voice reminder. She could not control the curving of her lips and she was humming something in a good mood.
A few hours later, the deputy manager of vitality headquarters called with a polite attitude.
“Miss Jiang, the brand sales have been good recently. After a meeting, the higher-ups have decided to add another five million bonus to your company. I hope that we can continue to maintain a pleasant partnership.”
Jiang Zhi was surprised, but she understood that the soaring sales of Vitality had little to do with Wu Dai. However, since they were willing to pay dividends, there was no reason for her to refuse.
She exchanged a few pleasantries with the deputy manager and accepted the money.
Jiang Zhi informed Wu Dai to go to the office and settle the accounts for him according to the established percentage of dividends…
This was the first time Wu Dai had experienced the joy of making money since he entered the entertainment industry. He looked at Jiang Zhi with gratitude and opened his arms excitedly, wanting to give Jiang Zhi a big hug.
However, just as he took two steps forward, Lu Mian grabbed his collar. “Mind your identity.
“It’s best to keep a distance from her.”
Jiang Zhi saw Wu Dai’s confused expression and felt helpless about Lu Mian’s possessiveness. She burst into laughter.
The phone in the drawer vibrated and Jiang Lu’s number appeared on the screen.
Jiang Zhi turned on the speaker and heard her shrill voice screaming, “Our matter will definitely not be settled just like that! You just wait and see. Eat my stuff and I will make you spit it out!”
Jiang Zhi ignored her and hung up the phone. She turned around and made a fraud report, preventing Jiang Lu’s number from coming through again!
“The salary is in the account, the advertisement bonus, plus the income from the Star Glory…”
Jiang Zhi mumbled as she fiddled with the calculator. Seeing the amount of nearly ten million, she calculated that she should be able to raise the investment funds before Director Zheng’s movie started filming.
She opened the brown paper bag and took out the villa mortgage contract. After hesitating for a while, she found the loan company and canceled the agreement.
The business manager coveted the location and prospects of the villa. He was a little unhappy, but he could only terminate the contract according to the terms.
Jiang Zhi left the loan company. Jiang Lu’s assistant, who had been hiding in the dark for a long time, suddenly pushed the door open and asked the front desk about what just happened. She found the business manager who had handled Jiang Zhi’s villa, took out an envelope, and pushed it over where the surveillance cameras could not see. She hurriedly gave a him few instructions.
The eyes behind the business manager’s glasses flickered. He nodded repeatedly. It seemed that the two of them had reached some kind of deal..
