"Besides, there's something I've never told you," said Su Minghan, frowning unhappily. "The management system of the overseas branch has problems. It's true that training artists is to earn profits for the company, but deducting their income without permission is a flaw in credibility and morality! If we don't rectify the management, it may affect the reputation of our domestic company in the future. By then, which artist would dare to come to our Su's Entertainment? Which company would dare to cooperate with us?"
Su Hao suddenly burst into laughter. "Has Tian Danni influenced you so much? You never used to interfere in the affairs of the overseas branch."
Su Minghan was stunned but quickly recovered. "I'm not talking about her. I heard from Assistant Jiang when he reported his work that he briefly mentioned the progress overseas."
As a father, how could Su Hao not understand his son's mind? "I accept your opinion. There are indeed problems with the management overseas. I've been busy running the market and haven't been involved much. It's my negligence. In the future, I'll check every artist in a situation similar to Tian Danni's one by one until they get their due benefits."
Su Minghan retorted awkwardly, "I've already said it's not just about her!"
"Hahaha, yes, yes, you're right." Su Hao got up and walked over, patting his son's shoulder with pleasure. "My son has grown up and can handle things independently. As your father, I'm very proud of you."
"Before I leave, I'm very confident in your personal ability at work, so there's no need for me to give you any instructions. But I hope you can abide by my rules. Make decisions when it's time to make them and let go when it's time to let go."
Su Minghan wasn't stupid. He could understand his father's warning. According to the company's regulations, all senior leaders are not allowed to have emotional relationships with female artists. Especially since he's the future heir, he shouldn't take risks and get involved in this quagmire.
"Father, I and Xiao Shujing..."
"If you're here to plead for her, you don't need to say any more." Su Hao interrupted him, looking at him with a meaningful smile. "There's already a brave and bold person who has pleaded for you."
"For me?" Su Minghan was stunned. A person quickly came to his mind. That silly girl! How could she be so reckless? Isn't she afraid of losing her job?
"Son, if a woman can give up all her fame and status for you, that's true love without hesitation." Su Hao said earnestly and then slowly left.
Click. The door of the dressing room was opened. Su Shan came in with a heavy pile of clothes in her arms, out of breath.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance? I could have come to greet you." Tian Danni trotted over to help her.
"Those snobs outside have been saying such bad things about you. How could I bear to let you come out to help me? That would just give them more ammunition!"
"Don't worry about them. Their mouths are on them. Let them talk. I've done nothing wrong, so I'm not afraid of rumors." Tian Danni happily picked up the clothes and compared them on herself. "How about this one? It shows off my waist. And this one! The fabric is so comfortable."
Su Shan was even more depressed seeing her calm attitude. "You're so calm! When I came here just now, you didn't see how arrogant Xiao Shujing was. She was sitting there with her legs crossed and wearing sunglasses, as if everyone had to flatter her. She's crazy!"
"And that little Yang beside her came over to chat me up and offered to help me carry things. How can someone be so fake? Who wants her charity? She's looking down on us!"
Tian Danni saw that she was as angry as a puffed-up pufferfish. She smiled and pinched her cheek. "Okay, stop complaining. If we talk about other artists behind their backs here, how are we any different from those gossips outside? Don't be angry."
"How can you still laugh? She stole your endorsement. Otherwise, you'd also have half of today's glory!" Su Shan pouted and stamped her feet, her eyes red with anger.
Tian Danni opened her arms and hugged her, patting her on the back to comfort her. "Okay, okay, it's all in the past."
"The entertainment circle is so big. We can't haggle over every little thing. Besides, opportunities don't wait for anyone. If I didn't seize it, it means God hasn't discovered this shining gold yet." Tian Danni faced it calmly. "I've advanced from that dark overseas branch to the domestic company. That's already a great blessing. I believe I'll have my own world sooner or later."
Su Shan's tears flowed down. "Woo... Danni..."
Just as they were comforting each other affectionately, Assistant Jiang rushed in without knocking, the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat. "Um... I'm really sorry to interrupt you two. Teacher Tian, could you please come with me to the reception room? Chairman Su wants to see you."
Tian Danni's expression gradually calmed down. "Okay, I see."
Hearing the sound of the door, Su Hao turned around with his hands behind his back. "We meet again."
"Do you have something to tell me?" Tian Danni looked at the smile on his lips and felt a little uneasy.
"Don't be so formal. Come and sit down."
Seeing him sit down, Tian Danni didn't follow. "Just tell me directly. Are you going to transfer me to the branch or fire me? It's okay either way."
After talking to Su Hao on the phone in the hospital last time, she had already prepared herself mentally. This day would come sooner or later. It's better to get it over with quickly.
Su Hao stared at her in a daze and then burst into laughter. "You're such a straightforward girl. Who said I'm going to fire you?"
He took a sip of the hot tea on the table. "I've already talked to Minghan about his emotional problems. He knows how to deal with them. As for the thing I asked you to do, since you didn't agree, it doesn't count. I won't take any improper measures against you."
This time it was Tian Danni's turn to be stunned. "Then why did you call me here?"
"Have you heard of the Lanshan Artists' Concert?" Su Hao still had that half-smile on his face as he looked up and asked.
"Yes, all the artists in the country will attend."
"On the surface, it's a large-scale gathering, but actually it's to select the pre-determined candidates for the overseas fashion show. If I remember correctly, your dream when you first joined the company was to be a runway model."
Tian Danni swallowed hard, her heart suddenly beating faster. "The overseas fashion show. Where is it?"
"Victoria Island." Su Hao's smile became even more intense.
The memory from a few months ago suddenly came back. When Xue Xiaoqi came to the company to recruit her, she also mentioned this place. Although Tian Danni wasn't in the overseas branch anymore, she had always been paying attention. The anniversary of the Victoria Island fashion show was at the end of next month.
"If you can outshine Xiao Shujing at the concert, I'll give you the spot. This opportunity isn't available to everyone."
She was a little unhappy. "So in the end, you still want me to deal with her?"
"No," Su Hao waved his finger. "This is your own competition."
