A Chance To Become An Adonis

Chapter 259: Contest

Chapter 259: Contest

Duan Huiling's interest peaked.

'Who would be crazy enough to join their company?' With the company's reputation being horrible, nobody in their right mind would sign a contract with them. 

What made matters worse is when all their idols asked to be transferred to a different label. And all their trainees wanted to quit. 

Despite not saying it to her face, Duan Huiling knew their idols were cursing at her behind her back. Their reputation went down the drain as well. It was due to them being affiliated with the company. 

So to get a new trainee right now will just be horrible. The person will have to start with an enormous burden behind him.

Lu Chen takes out his phone and shows her a picture of Zhang Jian, "This is my friend. He'll become the focal point of the company for the foreseeable future."

When Duan Huiling looked at Zhang Jian, she was surprised. She has seen many handsome people in her line of work, and Zhang Jian tops them. 

But she didn't expect Lu Chen would choose somebody close to him to be an idol. But to make matters more problematic is Zhang Jian being the focal point. 

'Don't tell me he's going to be like them?' 

Yes, from the photo, Duan Huiling could tell Zhang Jian has the visuals. But what about the other aspects? If he didn't have the others, there is no way Duan Huiling could agree for him to be the focal point. 

"He's somebody that can become one of the greatest musicians ever. I can guarantee that." 

"President, are you sure? There have been many times I have been guaranteed like this. However, they always failed."  Every board member had tried to promote people from their own fraction to be the focal point. And usually, it would fail horribly. 

"Also, I don't think it's a good idea to have him become the focal point instantly. He would need training."

"Hmm, let me search for something." Lu Chen smiles as he searches up on his laptop. Finding it, he shows it to Duan Huiling, "How about we let my friend join this competition."

The website Lu Chen showed was a musical competition called star talent. Up and coming musicians compete with each other, hoping to pique the interest of big-name labels. 

"Of course, I don't want to sign a contract with him so soon. That would be too soon." Lu Chen wasn't going to put his best friend in such an unfavorable position. 

He wanted everybody to see how talented Zhang Jian was without others shaming him because of his company.

"Before I sign him to my company, I want you to be the judge of his ability." Like his grandfather said, results are the only things that matter.

Once Zhang Jian shows it, nobody can say anything about his decisions.

Duan Huiling nods her head, "Yes, sir." She didn't say anymore as she left the room. With nobody else in the room, Lu Chen calls Zhang Jian,

 "What's up, my favorite brother." Lu Chen chuckles at his greeting.

"Nothing much. Just working at my company, trying to give you the biggest opportunity in your life."

"..." The other side went silent. Lu Chen was confused. 'Did the call end or something?' That's how long Zhang Jian went silent. 

"Hello?"

"WHAT'S THE OPPORTUNITY!!!!" Dropping his phone, Lu Chen grabs onto his ears. He thought his eardrums were about to pop.

"Can you not scream? Relax. There's a change in plans for you joining my company." Lu Chen explains what he wanted to do and what's going on with the company. 

"Dman, the company's this bad?" Zhang Jian didn't expect Lu Chen's company would have so many flaws. 

Changing the subject, he asks, "So all I have to do is show my skills to everybody in that competition?" Zhang Jian watched star talent from time to time. 

"Yeah. Show everybody that you aren't some regular newcomer. I want you to also sing your own song." From the competition, the singers would sing songs from other singers. 

If Zhang Jian sings his own original song, it will make him stand out. 

"Got it." Zhang Jian smiles viciously. When he heard how he needed to prove himself, he's ready to go above and beyond. 

Lu Chen smiles, "Alright, good luck on choosing your song. Also, how are you working with Gong Changming?"
