A Chance To Become An Adonis

Chapter 265: Invitation yet unfazed

Chapter 265: Invitation yet unfazed

"Hello, senior Chu." Zhang Jian bows. Despite being polite, he had his guard up. Confused as to why Chu Jingyi was here. 

And he wasn't alone. The other contestants look curious as well. But seeing their idol so up close is a great feeling. 

"Relax, you don't have to be so formal with me. It's nothing serious either." Chu Jingyi laughs at how tense Zhang Jian was. He turns to the other contestants and waves at them, "Keep up with the good work." 

They bow at him and start to focus more. 

Chu Jingyi looks back at Zhang Jian, "Do you remember how I wanted you to join my label?"

"Yes." It just happened a few minutes ago. 

Chu Jingyi brought out a card, "This is my card. I wasn't joking. I want you to join my company."

"..." The area turns silent. They thought they heard wrong.

The company Chu Jingyi is signed with is Silver Ray Entertainment, one of the big four. It's one of the best entertainment companies in China. They have created many hit idols and actors that can't be counted on one hand.

And Chu Jingyi is one of the top stars. So for him to personally invite Zhang Jian is unbelievable. Who could believe that? 

Even though the whole purpose of this show was to make them known to big-name labels, not this soon.

All the contestants look at him with envy and jealousy. However, they couldn't say a thing about it. Zhang Jian has the skills to back it up. 

The only person who didn't look at him in envy is Duan Huiling. 'Oh no!' 

Who wouldn't join Chu Jingyi's company?  Compared to Silver Ray to Arcs, Arcs can't even be compared to a tenth of Silver Ray. To lose somebody like Zhang Jian would be really bad for their company. 

But the words that came out of Zhang Jian's mouth made everybody lose their breath.

"Thank you, but I have to decline." It seems like a normal response when rejecting someone. But everybody gave him a dirty look.

Why would you throw away a ticket to the good life? Just even becoming a trainee under Silver Ray is enough to make everybody go crazy.

Chu Jingyi didn't take offense to Zhang Jian's rejections as he continues to have a smile on his face. He asks, "Can I ask the reason why you don't want to join?"

"I have a prior engagement with someone, and I'm a man of my word." Zhang Jian told him the truth. 

"I can even get you a contract that will make you earn similar to an A-list singer. Do you still not want to join?" In terms of hierarchy, Chu Jingyi was one of the top stars under Silver Ray. 

He can simply get Zhang Jian an A-tier contract with his influence.

"..." Are you kidding me?! When the people heard that, they wanted to throw themselves out the window. They couldn't believe how much Chu Jingyi was willing to do to get Zhang Jian. 

If they were in Zhang Jian's shoes, some would have fainted.

However, Zhang Jian continues to refuse, "I'm sorry. I refuse to break my promise to my friend. And I don't want a contract like that." Even if he's given a contract like that, it wasn't going to help him. 

People will think the only reason he joined Silver Ray is Chu Jingyi's recommendation, not his skills. 

And he has complete trust in Lu Chen. Zhang Jian knows Lu Chen will bring him to Chu Jingyi's level in no time.

Seeing his determined look, Chu Jingyi laughs, "I see, then it's a shame. But now that you said this, I just want you to join even more now."

Even though it was hard to find talents like what Zhang Jian had. But it was even more difficult to find a loyal character like that. 

Somebody that doesn't break his convictions even with boundless wealth in front of them. That was something not many people would have. 

Chu Jingyi turns over to Lu Chen, "So you are the one he placed his trust in." When he went backstage, he saw how the two were acting really close. 

He could put two and two together. 

Lu Chen smiles, "Hello, Mr. Chu. My name is Lu Chen. I heard a lot of great things about you." He moves his arm out to shake his hand.
