Chapter 1226 1326. Selfishness

Nie Wei hung up the phone, his mouth corners pulled up, revealing a satisfied smile.

Hu Ge actually gave Nie Wei a clear answer on the phone, intending to sign with Huayi, which was something Nie Wei had not expected, and of course he was just surprised.

As for the specific reason, Nie Wei guessed that it might be that Hu Ge was stimulated during the communication between him and Cai Yinong, or it might be that Hu Ge had already had the idea of ​​developing on a new platform, but no matter what, this is indeed a gratifying news.

As for what impact Hu Ge's signing with Huayi will have on Tang Dynasty Film and Television, and whether it will affect his insignificant friendship with Cai Yinong, Nie Wei doesn't care.

Nie Wei has mixed views on Cai Yinong.

She is capable and visionary, but this vision has limitations. She lacks the spirit of adventure and is very vigilant about unknown areas. In addition, this woman has a strong desire for control. Take Hu Ge as an example. She is obviously no longer an artist of Tang Dynasty Film and Television, but she still wants to tie him to her company.

In Nie Wei's opinion, she is really not suitable to be the helmsman of an entertainment company, but more suitable for the position of general manager who can manage everything.

She should not be allowed to formulate the general strategy, because her limitations will also limit the development of a company. Instead, it is more appropriate for her to be the actual executor of the strategy.

Cai Yinong thinks that signing Hu Ge is poaching, but in fact, this statement is not tenable at all.

It is true that Hu Ge is a shareholder of Tang Dynasty Film and Television, but he has long lost the artist contract with Tang Dynasty Film and Television, so whether from a legal perspective or a moral perspective, it is normal for Hu Ge to sign with Huayi.

The only thing that may be affected is the friendship between Hu Ge and Cai Yinong, but Cai Yinong tied Hu Ge like this and did not let him let go to fight for development. Is this really friendship?

There is no impenetrable wall in this world, especially in the entertainment industry where "there are leaks everywhere", and Nie Wei was willing to investigate, and soon found out the reason why Hu Ge suddenly made up his mind.

Nie Wei felt that Cai Yinong was a bit pitiful. It rained on a leaking roof. Of course, it was pitiful, but it was actually all Cai Yinong's own fault.

After all, not every actor is as obedient as Hu Ge was at the beginning, especially the young actors now, each of whom has very positive ideas and is much bolder than their predecessors.

For things like contract termination, many senior actors would probably think about it over and over again and couldn't sleep for several nights, but for many actors born in the 1990s or even 2000s, this might be a matter that they decided in one go.

In fact, it is not only in the entertainment industry, but also in this society. The lack of stability of young employees in many companies has become a social problem. This kind of thing is not even lacking in Huayi and Fanxing.

The company once conducted a survey. Those employees born in the 1980s and 1970s basically focus on the salary when looking for a job, and don't care about other things.

And those born in the 1990s, especially those born in the 1995s, can't help but pay attention to the company's welfare benefits, and also have requirements for the working environment and even corporate culture.

The attitudes of the two towards resignation are also very different. The former is very cautious, while the latter is casual.

Different times create people who grow up in different environments, but it is hard to say which one is better or worse.

Cai Yinong arrived in Kyoto by plane the next morning. After receiving Hu Ge's text message yesterday, she suffered from insomnia. She had never expected that after her clear opposition, Hu Ge still resolutely chose to join Huayi.

What made her even more distressed was the sentence in Hu Ge's text message. He said that he would be a better self and hoped that someone would be willing to become the second Hu Ge in the future.

Seeing this, Cai Yinong immediately understood that Hu Ge had heard her conversation with Jiang Jintian.

It was precisely because of Jiang Jintian's words that Hu Ge suddenly made up his mind to join Huayi.

In these short ten hours, Cai Yinong's mood changed from anger at the beginning, to confusion, and then to grievance and incomprehension. Hu Ge's departure made her feel as if a piece of her heart was empty.

With a confused expression, she came to the airport and got on the plane. During this process, she was absent-minded. If there was no assistant watching beside her, she would have forgotten her suitcase.

Two and a half hours later, she arrived at Kyoto Airport.

Originally, the staff of the local branch was arranged to pick them up at the airport, but when they walked out of the station, Cai Yinong looked at the familiar figure not far away, and her confused eyes finally began to focus.

Looking at Hu Ge's familiar and hearty smile, Cai Yinong wanted to scold him, but the warmth in her heart could not be faked, and the scolding words came to her lips, but she couldn't say it.

You should know that Hu Ge was discovered by Cai Yinong when he was just a freshman. At that time, Cai Yinong was unable to sign a contract with students on campus due to the regulations of Mingzhu Drama Academy, so she agreed with Hu Ge to sign a contract after graduation from the senior year.

Since then, the two have known each other for more than 18 years. Many times, Hu Ge is more like a family member to her.

Thinking of this, Cai Yinong glared at Hu Ge fiercely, and did not respond to his greetings, and just walked straight out of the airport. She was upset when she saw Hu Ge now.

But who would have thought that she was familiar with Hu Ge, and Hu Ge was also familiar with her, so the car sent by the company had long been driven back by Hu Ge, and now there was only Hu Ge's nanny car outside the airport.

"Have you signed the contract?" Looking at the brand new Mercedes-Benz nanny car, Cai Yinong's face was frosty.

She was not unfamiliar with this kind of car, because it had almost become the standard for first-line artists of Huayi and Fanxing in the circle, because these Mercedes-Benz nanny cars were customized, not only the interior, but also the logo of Fanxing or Huayi on the front of the car.

So Cai Yinong immediately thought that Hu Ge had signed the contract, otherwise why would there be such a nanny car?

"Not yet." Hu Ge replied immediately. Cai Yinong stared at his eyes for a long time, and saw only honesty. Cai Yinong pursed his lips and muttered: "He really knows how to win people's hearts."

Although Cai Yinong's voice was low, Hu Ge was so close that he could hear it clearly and smiled helplessly.

He also knew that Nie Wei was trying to win people's hearts, but to be honest, knowing this, he would still feel very useful to be treated like this, at least it proved that Nie Wei and Huayi valued him very much.

"Xiao Liu, call me a taxi." After looking at the nanny car, Cai Yinong immediately told the assistant beside him to call a taxi.

"Sister!" Hu Ge screamed. Of course, she couldn't let Cai Yinong take a taxi back to the hotel. Cai Yinong was so angry that she wanted to curse. Suddenly, she saw two people holding cameras not far away looking over. They looked like they were going to take pictures. She was shocked.

She knew that she had run into reporters. It was not surprising. Kyoto International Airport can be said to be the airport with the most reporters in China. There are not as many as a hundred reporters stationed here every day, but it is not a problem to find 20 or 30 people at random.

As soon as she found the reporter, Cai Yinong subconsciously pushed Hu Ge into the nanny car, and she immediately followed, and then immediately closed the car door. Assistant Xiao Liu didn't react for a while.

"Sister, your box is still downstairs." Hu Ge didn't see the reporter. Although she didn't understand why Cai Yinong was so anxious, she immediately reminded her.

"There are reporters outside." Cai Yinong explained briefly, and then told the driver to drive while calling the assistant to take a taxi to transport her box to the reserved hotel.

Hu Ge, who knew the reason, was also very moved. When he first debuted, Sister Cai protected him at any time and gave him a very good growth environment.

However, when he heard what Cai Yinong told his assistant, he suddenly thought of something.

"Sister, I will refund your hotel."

"You!?" Cai Yinong stared at Hu Ge in surprise, not understanding what he was going to do. Was he going to chase her away?

Looking at Cai Yinong's puzzled and sad eyes, Hu Ge quickly explained: "Huayi allocated me an apartment in Kyoto. How can I let you live in a hotel when you come? Of course, you live in my apartment."

This time, Cai Yinong was so angry that she couldn't speak. How could she live in Huayi's apartment? She didn't want to live in a place provided by the "enemy".

But when she came to her senses and looked at Hu Ge's pleading and even humble eyes, she couldn't say the words of refusal.

She felt that she seemed to be eaten by this kid. She sighed helplessly and remained silent.

Hu Ge's eyes flashed with joy. Cai Yinong didn't refuse, which was equivalent to tacit consent. She quickly took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Cai Yinong's assistant, telling her the address of the new home and asking her to send Cai Yinong's luggage over.

Hu Ge's new home in Kyoto soon arrived.

It was in the family building inside the Star Business Center, but the house was not Nie Wei's. Nie Wei's house had been temporarily given to Luo Yuan. The house where Hu Ge lived was opposite Cheng Kun's house, which was the house bought by Fan Binbin at the beginning.

But later Fan Binbin left Huayi, and she sold this house. After all, many Huayi artists lived in this building. As an artist who left the company, it always felt a little awkward to meet these old colleagues.

Of course, this house also made her a lot of money. Compared with the cost of buying this house, this sale made at least tens of millions more, and the company did not take advantage of her in this regard.

This is also one of the reasons why Fan Binbin is very grateful to Nie Wei. Nie Wei really did his best for her.

The house was decorated. After confirming that Hu Ge was going to sign the contract, Nie Wei asked someone to replace some daily necessities in it and allocated it to Hu Ge to live in.

In fact, Hu Ge also has a property in Kyoto, but it is far from the company and the location is not good. After all, his home and the original agency are in Mingzhu City, which is his base camp. Kyoto is just an investment he made casually.

So after seeing this house, Hu Ge decided to move in, and this was all thanks to Nie Wei's favor.

You know, according to the Franklin effect, the best way to increase a person's favorability is to ask him to do you a favor, so actively accepting help is a good way for Hu Ge to quickly restore his friendship with Nie Wei.

Looking at the exquisitely decorated house, Cai Yinong's eyes flashed with envy. Although she is also very rich, she still can't bear to spend money to buy a house like this.

After all, such a house costs 40 to 50 million, and the key is that there is no market for it. Although Cai Yinong has money, she doesn't spend it this way. She might as well invest in a new play with this money.

"He is really good to you." Cai Yinong said with some jealousy.

Cai Yinong naturally understood what Nie Wei was thinking. Although Hu Ge has not signed the contract yet, since she has accepted the nanny car and such a house, Hu Ge is basically doomed.

Cai Yinong sighed. She actually knew that once Hu Ge made up her mind, it would be difficult to change it. But she still held a glimmer of hope. Unfortunately, when she came to Kyoto, she didn't even say a word of persuasion. Everything she saw had already made her give up.

Hu Ge was also secretly observing Cai Yinong.

Taking the new nanny car and taking her to see her new home was actually intentional by Hu Ge. He was afraid that Cai Yinong would say those words of persuasion. He was afraid that his beliefs would be shaken by this sister, so he arranged this scene to make Cai Yinong unable to say anything to persuade him.

He believed that his sister would definitely understand what he wanted to express.

Some things, if turned into words, may very likely become hurt. It is better to rely on tacit understanding and acquiesce to each other to preserve the friendship.

Hu Ge did this because he didn't want to hurt the 18-year friendship between him and Cai Yinong.

"Sister, take a rest. Mr. Nie invited us to have lunch together at noon." Hu Ge said after helping Cai Yinong put away the luggage.

Cai Yinong subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when she thought of Nie Wei, she finally sighed helplessly.

Cai Yinong felt tired and wanted to ask Hu Ge to leave so that she could be quiet for a while. At this moment, Hu Ge suddenly spoke.

"Sister, why don't you take this opportunity to re-establish a cooperative relationship with Huayi? Huayi's movies are so strong. With their help, Tang Dynasty Film and Television will definitely be able to get out of the predicament."

Cai Yinong looked at Hu Ge in surprise and asked, "Did Nie Wei ask you to tell me this?"

Looking at Cai Yinong's expectant eyes, Hu Ge shook his head and answered honestly, "This is what I have been thinking about these two days. I want to talk to President Nie during lunch."

Cai Yinong looked at Hu Ge, and her eyes gradually changed from surprise to comfort.

At this moment, the warm feeling in her heart ignited again. She could hear that Hu Ge's words were really completely for her.

For a while, Cai Yinong began to feel deeply guilty for her previous selfish thoughts.

After thinking for a while, Cai Yinong gritted her teeth and advised: "Hu Ge, I thank you for your kindness, but don't say this during dinner. You just arrived at the company and are still a newcomer. You should be low-key and listen to me. Do you understand?"

Cai Yinong felt that she was really selfish, so at this moment she was selfless to this child who was really good to her.

Thanks to dragonlixu for the generous reward of 1,000, and thanks to Fantasy Paradise for the generous reward.
