Chapter 519: An unknown small business

"Ziqi, this is the recent work arrangement." Xu Ziqi's agent closed the notebook and said to Xu Ziqi.

Xu Ziqi didn't respond, as if she didn't hear him.

"Ziqi, Ziqi, are you listening to me?" The manager pushed Xu Ziqi and asked,

"I'm listening, Sister Zhao." Xu Ziqi said: "Sister Zhao, my work schedule is too full. I haven't had a good rest for a long time. I went on vacation to relax. Can you push me some announcements? I want to Go traveling for a while.”

"No!" Sister Zhao refused without hesitation, "Ziqi, many of these announcements were obtained by the company. There are many artists watching. If you push it, a lot of people want to be on it." , you are still in the rising stage of your career, so you can’t waste any time. You yourself also know how fierce the competition is in the entertainment industry. There are so many celebrities who want to be in the spotlight every day and want to be exposed. You have been out of the audience’s sight for too long. If you do, the audience will forget you.”

"If you forget, forget it. I don't want any exposure. I just want to sing and act quietly." Xu Ziqi said.

"Without exposure and popularity, who would ask you to sing or act?" Sister Zhao said: "Ziqi, don't talk like a child. You should know how cruel the entertainment industry is, especially female stars who want to achieve success. , you have to pay more. Being in the entertainment industry is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You can't relax at all. Moreover, the company has paid a lot of favors and prices for these announcements. You can do whatever you want. Giving up will also cause considerable losses to the company.”

"But since I entered the industry, I haven't had a good rest for several years. Can't I have a holiday?" Xu Ziqi said with some dissatisfaction: "I have made a lot of money for the company in the past few years, I just want to have a little rest." It shouldn’t be too much for a while.”

"It's not too much." Sister Zhao said, "But after you are done with this period of work, how about I arrange for you to rest for a while?"

"That's what you said a few months ago, but I still haven't been able to rest." Xu Ziqi said.

Sister Zhao was slightly embarrassed, thought for a while, and said: "Well, next week, a company in Jiangzhou will open, and you will be invited to attend the opening performance and reception. The company has already agreed for you, and you will finish attending the event by then. After that, you can stay in Jiangzhou for two more days and have some rest."

"Only two days?" Xu Ziqi was a little disappointed.

"Two days is already a lot. For your two days, I have to squeeze in the rest of your schedule." Sister Zhao said, "As for this business performance, the inviter is one of the five major local families. First, they are very powerful. The people who attended the event that day were all well-known and well-known people, and the appearance fees offered by the other party were also very generous, so the company agreed. "

Xu Ziqi was speechless. She actually had no interest in such a cocktail party, and was even a little resistant. She had participated in similar cocktail parties more than once before, and they were all arranged by the company. Those big shots and upper-level people in the eyes of ordinary people Not all people behave like gentlemen. Some of them want to take off their clothes and swallow them whole.

Xu Ziqi only participated once and didn't want to go again. However, the company kept helping her arrange similar activities. She had to go even if she didn't want to go. This was one of the reasons why Xu Ziqi felt bored.

"Sister Zhao, can I not go to this cocktail party?" Xu Ziqi asked with some expectation.

"No." Sister Zhao shook her head and refused: "The company has already agreed to this, and the other party is very powerful. Wouldn't it offend someone by agreeing first and then going back on it?"

"But I really don't want to deal with those people." Xu Ziqi said.

"It's okay, don't worry too much. I will be by your side when the time comes to ensure that you won't suffer any loss, okay, Ziqi?" Sister Zhao naturally knew Xu Ziqi's worries and couldn't help comforting her.

"Okay then." Seeing Sister Zhao's firmness, Xu Ziqi obviously couldn't avoid the reception, so she had no choice but to accept it.

"Fortunately, we have two days of rest after the reception. Then we can have some fun in Jiangzhou. There seem to be many tourist attractions in Jiangzhou. Where should we go then?" Xu Ziqi comforted herself in her heart, only thinking about what to do after the reception. After a short vacation, she was able to make herself happy.

"By the way, speaking of Jiangzhou, there was a company from Jiangzhou two days ago. It seems to be engaged in beauty medicines and wants to find you as an endorsement." Sister Zhao said.

"What company?" Xu Ziqi asked casually.

"A newly opened company has no reputation at all." Sister Zhao said with some disdain: "I don't know how many small factories there are in the country. They still produce things like whitening powder and scar removal liquid. They probably want to deceive them." Money, I refused for you."

Hearing Sister Zhao's words, Xu Ziqi subconsciously touched the scar on the back of her hand. The scar was very obvious. It was caused by accidentally injuring herself while playing when she was a child. After so many years, this scar has always been there. , has no intention of fading away. Over the years, Xu Ziqi has used various methods to remove this scar, but has never been successful. This scar has always been there, even because she has become famous A big star in the country, her scar is also well-known to people all over the country. Therefore, there are countless scar removal products coming to her doorstep. These products all want to be endorsed by her. After all, her scar is the best. publicity.

Xu Ziqi had high expectations for these products and tried many of them. However, none of them really worked. She even had allergic reactions after using some products.

What made Xu Ziqi even more angry was that some manufacturers asked her to endorse such products and then tried to cover up the scars on the back of her hands in some way to deceive consumers. Xu Ziqi rejected all these unreasonable requests without hesitation.

"What about their products?" Xu Ziqi couldn't help asking.

Although she had experienced too many failures, every time she heard about a new scar removal product, Xu Ziqi couldn't help but want to try it. After all, the scar had troubled her for too long. Not to mention that she was now a star who often appeared in front of the camera, even an ordinary girl would not tolerate such an obvious scar on her body.

"Before their manager left, he did leave me a sample, but I don't know where I put it. I've been really busy recently." Sister Zhao said, "But you don't need to try it to know that their products won't have any effect. It's just an unknown small factory. What good things can it produce? Aren't you just trying to use your name to deceive people?"
