The cultural development of Hetian Town’s sangzhi has been rapid.
When Jiang Ning first came to Sanwan Village in the program team’s car, she noticed mulberry leaves everywhere.
Even in Sanwan Village, quite a few villagers keep silkworms at home.
Sitting in the car without cameras, Shen Zha was noticeably more relaxed.
He and Jiang Ning were old acquaintances, chatting all the way, subtly hinting at wanting to bring Jiang Ning into the entertainment industry.
The attention Jiang Ning garners is evident, and Shen Zha truly thinks it’s a pity if she doesn’t enter showbiz.
"By the way, do you have an agent? If the conversation goes well later, you’ll definitely sign a contract," Shen Zha said generously, "If you don’t have one, I can lend you my team and assistant."
"I think I have one." Jiang Ning thought for a moment, pulled out her phone, and began contacting.
Shen Zha, upon hearing such a reply, was full of questions:... Think?
Before he could ask further, Jiang Ning had already picked up her phone to contact Qi Chen.
When Jiang Ning first appeared on a variety show, Shen Zha mentioned that if she needed, he could help her arrange an agent.
At that time, Jiang Ning thought the Qi family’s special treatment towards her was because of Qi Xingzhou, so she declined politely. Qi Chen didn’t insist, only advised her to consider Qi Corporation first when she needed help in the future.
Later, Jiang Ning specifically looked into it and found that Qi Corporation has many industries under its name, including ventures in entertainment, and has even nurtured several film emperors and queens.
However, Jiang Ning was not much involved in the entertainment circle at the time, with little need for an agent, so she didn’t bring up the matter herself.
Back then, her mind was fully occupied with tasks, not yet considering her future career path.
Now, having an agent doesn’t seem like a bad idea?
Jiang Ning found Qi Chen’s WeChat, and simply sent a message to inquire.
A Piece of Ginger: Brother Qi, do you have any agent recommendations?
Shortly after sending the message, Qi Chen replied.
Qi Chen: Yes. Who are you asking for? Do you need one yourself or is it for a friend?
A Piece of Ginger: For myself.
A Piece of Ginger: Recently filming a program, the local government wants to collaborate with me to promote local tourism and culture...
Jiang Ning briefly explained the situation.
Qi Chen understood that Jiang Ning was actively offering an olive branch to Qi Corporation.
Otherwise, given her current overwhelming popularity, many companies would be willing to offer concessions just to sign her.
Qi Chen immediately assured Jiang Ning, promising to arrange for an agent to meet her.
Shen Zha observed Jiang Ning chatting all the time, clearly indicating she wasn’t in need of an agent or team, and sighed.
He still hoped to sign Jiang Ning to his studio.
Initially he thought, given how long they’ve known each other and the fact that the two variety shows Jiang Ning appeared on were led by him, they had some rapport.
But clearly, Jiang Ning already has other plans!
After a two-hour drive, the group arrived at Hetian Town.
The program team had prior contact with the local cultural and tourism department, and the private car passed by the town center, directly stopping at the government unit’s parking lot.
Besides wanting to sign Jiang Ning as a tourism ambassador, the local cultural and tourism department also intends to collaborate culturally with the program team, showcasing many intangible cultural heritages and ancient techniques from across the province during the program.
Apart from Shen Zha and Jiang Ning, the program’s producer, Chen Yan, was also present.
However, due to work reasons, he didn’t come from Sanwan Village with everyone but instead arrived from another city to join them.
Chen Yan arrived earlier than Shen Zha and Jiang Ning; when he saw them, he stepped out of the car, exchanged a few pleasantries with the two, and went upstairs together.
