Chapter 125 I Love You
"Xiao Min, I knew that you would definitely make the right decision."
When Zhang Shan received his call, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, her joy was beyond words, and she drew a beautiful blueprint for him on the other end of the phone.
In the end, he asked him very courteously: "Are you at home or where? I will bring a lawyer over here and sign the contract as soon as possible."
"Only the brokerage contract is not enough, I still need to see the film contract." Sheng Min said calmly, "One or two, it doesn't matter if it's a movie, a TV series or a variety show, the amount must satisfy me."
"How much do you want."
Sheng Min reported a number.
Zhang Shan laughed: "The tone is not small."
"Whether it's worth it or not is up to everyone." Sheng Min said softly, "Mr. Zhang, and as you said, these project companies don't mention anything."
"I remember, I promise you, of course you are worth it."
Zhang Shan replied, "With your reputation, this amount can be negotiated, but it's not too much... The company raised a bit higher before, but that's because the contract was signed early, and the company trained you a few years ago and spent money on you."The money is all upside down... But the terms of the new contract are very generous to you, and you can see it."
This is not a lie, Sheng Min knows it well.There are many companies staring at him, and the brokers who want him to sign are too many to count on two hands. Dongyi may not be able to give the best resources, but in terms of money alone, Zhang Shan did give the best conditions.
Zhang Shan did not forget to continue to emphasize: "Of course, until you get a satisfactory amount, the company will not mention a single point. Since I said this, it definitely counts. This point can also be written into the contract. I will ask the lawyer to change it immediately."
Sheng Min listened calmly: "Okay."
"It's just that it takes time for me to negotiate a film contract now, and you haven't renewed your contract. Everyone in the industry knows that your contract is about to expire.Brokerage contract signed..."
"Mr. Zhang." Sheng Min interrupted her, "I believe that with your ability, these problems can be solved. You know why I agreed to renew the contract."
"If you need money, the company will call you first."
"If there is no clear money, the company dares to fight, but I dare not accept it." Sheng Min did not leave much room for discussion, "Bring me the film contract, and I will sign it together."
Zhang Shan paused for a moment, feeling a little undeservedly lost in her words: "Xiao Min, don't you believe me so much now?"
"Sister." Sheng Min changed the address naturally, "It's meaningless for us to talk about whether you believe it or not. I used to be very grateful to you, and I am the same now, but this does not conflict."
The other end was silent for a while: "You are really different from before."
"You teach well."
"I can't teach you." Zhang Shan laughed, "It's your boyfriend who taught you well... If you want to see a film appointment, it's okay. I'll talk about it as soon as possible. You wait for my news."
She hung up the phone and called again within two hours.
"I've made appointments with a few companies. I'll go face-to-face with each other tomorrow. You're accepting because of the salary, but I still have to consider the production team, fan position, and broadcast platform for you." Although Zhang Shan has faded out of the company in recent years, after all, she started from nothing.The ability is there, and the picture is more round than others, "Well, I have thought about it, next Monday will be the company's new project conference next year, add a link, and your contract will be signed at the conference. There are two days left, I will definitely give you the film appointment."
In the faint sound of electric current, there seemed to be the sound of abacus. Hearing this suggestion, Sheng Min silently pulled the corner of his lower lip.
Didn't hear his answer, Zhang Shan persuaded: "You should have come to the new project press conference. Then the media reporter is here, and the announcement of your contract renewal may attract more attention than any of our projects next year, and it will be more impressive."Raise the company's stock price, after all, you are the company's most profitable artist. Of course, this also shows that the company attaches great importance to you."
"Oh." Sheng Min said without emotion. He heard the wind rustling on the window, and turned around to see that it was already late at night.
The winter in N City is always gloomy, with no stars and no moon, and the boundaries between day and night are not very clear.
In the past, winter was always the hardest for Sheng Min, the mood was depressed for a long time, and it would be better in the next spring.This winter seems to be harder, and it seems to be completely different.At least he looked out of the window, and he no longer had the urge to jump off. All he thought about was what Li Xuan was doing now, and whether he had eaten.
Yesterday I found out about his "failure" in the play, probably because he was afraid that he would be in a bad mood, Sheng Min said no to it several times, Li Xuan still declined the rest of the meeting, and went home with him.
It also directly caused him to wake up in the morning and never stop calling. From subordinates to partners, a lot of things were waiting for him to make decisions. Li Xuan originally planned to accompany him again, but Sheng Min couldn't bear it. After breakfast, he drove him away.company.
Instead, he sent a message saying that he would go home tonight, but it might be late, so Sheng Min should go to bed first.Sheng Min knew that he was desperately trying to squeeze out time because he was worried, but it was difficult to measure how much work was added during the day to spend more time with him.
"Sheng Min." After not hearing his next sentence for a long time, Zhang Shan said skillfully, "You also know how the company's stock price has fallen. This new project launch is very important to the entire company. It stands to reason, I should have been preparing for this matter for the past two days, but now I want to negotiate a film contract for you, I will leave it to others, after all, I am not at ease entrusting your affairs to others."
"I'm really honored." Sheng Min recovered from his thoughts.
"So you still want to come, right?" Zhang Shan said, "Didn't you teach me that day, to be a human being."
"What time is Monday?"
The new project launch conference has been warming up for a long time, and if you are concerned, you can certainly know.Hearing his question, Zhang Shan was probably a little unhappy, thinking that he didn't care, but she still said: "Start at three o'clock in the afternoon, your contract will be signed after the project introduction, it will be the finale at four thirty.The appetite of the media has been hung up. It was announced at the beginning, I am afraid everyone is busy writing manuscripts, where is the mood to listen to the project, as well as the newly signed artists, I will also announce it by the way.”
Sheng Min pursed his lips, recalling seeing Li Xuan's schedule on the computer screen yesterday, he remembered that Li Xuan had arranged to meet investors next Monday afternoon.
"Okay." Sheng Min said, "But I can't disclose the news in advance, otherwise I can't guarantee that I can go to the press conference smoothly."
As soon as Zhang Shan posted it, she seemed to measure it for a few seconds: "Okay, it's not bad for two days. It's a pleasant cooperation."
Sheng Min didn't know how he hung up the phone, he was in a daze for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he was already sitting in the study, with the script of "Not Just Mountain" in front of him.
But he couldn't remember what it was like the day Yin Qianpin gave him the complete script.
I still remember that day under the warm lights of the restaurant, Li Xuan said to him with a smile: "I have signed up for you."
Sheng Min didn't want to read any more, so he covered the script and closed his eyes.
"Teacher Sheng."
The makeup artist called him softly, and Sheng Min opened his eyes: "Are you ready?"
"Yeah." The makeup artist tidied up the brushes, "It's ok."
"Thank you." Sheng Min looked at the person in the mirror, how long ago was the last time he wore makeup?Two months or three months, it feels like it's been a long time, and it's clear that my face has an indescribable strangeness.
"What's the matter, is there anything I need to change?" The makeup artist looked at his expression, "You have a good foundation, but your makeup is thin."
Sheng Min shook his head: "No need."
"Then I'll go out first."
"good."
The door of the dressing room was gently closed.
Glancing at his watch, it was less than half an hour before the press conference started.
Sheng Min reached out to touch the shadow in the mirror, moved the corner of his mouth, and revealed an impeccable smile.
The decision has been made, and he is willing to bear all the costs, so he can't show the slightest bit of depression, just laugh, like what he is best at.
The phone rang suddenly, and Sheng Min was almost taken aback. Fortunately, the caller ID was not the name he was most worried about, but it also cracked a little flaw in his perfect mask.
"Hello?"
"Hello!" Deng Jing's voice sounded exasperated, "Sheng Min, what are you doing? Are you really going to renew your contract? I saw that someone sent you a photo of you going to your company's press conference in your chat!"
Sheng Min pursed her lips.
"Aren't you going to renew the contract?" Deng Jing calmed down a little, and asked optimistically and tentatively, "Just give the old club a face, and finally help them support their popularity?"
"Deng Jing." He had to say, "I have already talked to Director Yin."
It was a long message. Before agreeing to Zhang Shan, he told Yin Qianpin first, but the other party didn't reply a word.In fact, Deng Jing didn't just find out today. He always felt that there was still room for redemption. Although he tried to persuade him, he was never so irritable.
When Deng Jing heard it, he immediately exploded again: "You also said that Yin Qianpin is going to be pissed off by you! So what if you said it before, withdraw it and repeat it, he won't let you act when you come back...Why on earth, Xiao Min, you obviously want to act in a drama, but I'm not a fool to see it! Why did you change your mind, it doesn't matter that you have a boyfriend, Yin Qianfei said..."
"I'm sorry." That's all Sheng Min could say.
"Who are you sorry for! You are sorry for yourself!" Deng Jing scolded, "Hurry up and come back to act in your play, I won't pick up your mess, Yin Qian frequency said every day that I feel wrong here and I didn't act well there, who doesn't knowWhat does he mean, I don't take this kind of idleness, you come back quickly...you won't have signed the contract extension, have you?"
"I......"
"Sheng Min?"
The door was pushed open, Zhang Shan walked in, Sheng Min covered the receiver and turned his head away.
"Are you still on the phone?" Zhang Shan is full of ambition today, with exquisite makeup, "It's about to start."
"I still have something to do." He said to Deng Jing, "I'll call you later."
He took a deep breath and hung up the phone.It's just that the bell rang again immediately, unrelentingly.
"Why don't you turn off the phone first?" Zhang Shan leaned against the doorway with a vague smile on her face.
Sheng Min's face was expressionless, and he lowered his eyes to adjust the mute. Zhang Shan walked over and took his arm with a smile, like a pair of handcuffs: "Let's go."
In the hall on the top floor of the company, in the well-arranged space of nearly 500 square meters, reporters from all walks of life have long been waiting for their positions with long guns and short cannons.
Sheng Min went in from the side door, and was still in the shadows. A sharp-eyed reporter had already noticed him, and the crowd immediately boiled over.
"Come on, come on! Sheng Min is here!"
"It's really here? My God, I really want to renew the contract, isn't it all rumored to be renewed?"
"I guessed it. Otherwise, why would you make such a big show. Dongyi will definitely do everything possible to keep him. Apart from Sheng Min, they don't have enough important artists anymore. The recent stock price tells everything..."
"The old club still has feelings to some extent."
"Fortunately, Sheng Min came. This trip was not in vain. I have something to write when I go back..."
All kinds of voices drilled into Sheng Min's ears one after another, and the closer they got to the podium, the clearer they became.
Not only on-site, but also online.The live broadcast of the new project conference was launched, and with the appearance of Sheng Min at this moment, it was like a bait dropped into a pond.
"No way, no way to continue! Don't continue!"
"Ahhhh! Why can't you think about it so much..."
"I just have two words: run!"
...
Sheng Min couldn't run away, he walked into the fire pit that the fans said without hesitation.
Several directors of Dongyi and some well-known artists of the company have already sat on the stage, except for the two seats next to the chairman.
Zhang Shan took him by the arm and walked to her husband's side before letting go. Shi Shiran sat down, and the husband and wife signed the hand seemingly affectionately, leaving the central seat to Sheng Min.
Sheng Min smiled lightly, unbuttoned his suit, and sat down.
"Sheng Min!" The voices of the reporters in the audience couldn't be suppressed now, and the flashes kept clicking, "Is the contract for today's attendance renewed?"
"We heard that several companies have offered you an olive branch. In the end, Dongyi was chosen. Is it because of the cooperation and friendship over the years or other considerations?"
"Everyone is very concerned, please answer."
"Yes, please answer!"
...
The spotlight kept flickering, the crowd was full of voices, and seeing that the scene was about to be overwhelmed, the host hurriedly opened his mouth, still in the usual way, looking back on the past and looking forward to the future, after talking nonsense: "Now let me invite Mr. Zeng An, Chairman of Dongyi CultureSpeech."
"So Sheng Min is renewing his contract now?"
"That's right, can Sheng Min say a few words first?"
The reporters below didn't answer at all. The host was a little embarrassed for a moment, and he didn't know what to do with the microphone in his hand.
"Give it to me." Zhang Shan gestured, took the microphone, and looked at the reporters below, "Thank you very much for being here, and I understand everyone's concern for Sheng Min. We will answer these questions one by one later. TodayIt's the press conference of the new project, we have our process, as for the issue that everyone is most concerned about..."
She paused slightly, with a deliberate smile: "I can't give an answer now, I hope to reveal the answer with everyone, right, Xiao Min?"
Sheng Min smiled cooperatively. Zhang Shan had been in the industry for many years, and the reporters under her were giving her a little face. Although they still couldn't help whispering, they managed to calm down so that Zeng An could start reading the speech smoothly.
Fans outside the live broadcast camera would not give face like this, and the lines of messages were posted quickly.
"What do you mean? What does Zhang Shan mean? Is it now Schrödinger's lottery?"
"I'm sick, what are you doing?"
"It doesn't mean to sign on the spot..."
"Wait a minute, why does it feel like the truth..."
The phone screen lit up for a moment, and Deng Jing couldn't make a call and sent a message instead. He was probably watching the live broadcast, and his attitude was fierce from the silent text.
'What are you doing, Sheng Min!Do you want to stay with this company that can't wait to squeeze your oil?!Don't be silly of you!'
Sheng Min pressed his lips against the screen. Zeng An's speech was still going on. The sound effect of the microphone was so good that it gave him a headache. The spotlight below was still flickering. Sheng Min tried to look out of the window, but found that the roomThe luxurious hall has no windows, and the sky cannot be seen.
The rain had just stopped when we left the building.
After the heavy snow a few days ago, it has been raining continuously for the past few days. A few drops of remaining eaves water fell on Li Xuan's deep black coat and disappeared.
Back in vain, again.
The investment manager who had been in contact with him politely sent him downstairs, regretting that he would try to convince the person in charge again, and emphasized again and again that it was not Li Xuan's problem.
"Two days ago, I was very interested in your company, but I suddenly changed my mind. It's strange. Let me try to persuade you."
Li Xuan thanked him, but he knew in his heart that it was basically impossible to facilitate this cooperation.
There wasn't much feeling of disappointment, and no time for it.
If the financing does not come in, there are still a lot of things waiting.After more than a week, the game is finally back online in some software stores.But the flow in the background is still plummeting, and it must be updated as soon as possible...
Li Xuan squeezed the space between his eyebrows. The car was parked in the open-air parking lot outside the fence. While he was thinking about something, he took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Chu Tianheng when he was walking outside.During the update meeting, it was found that there were several missed calls from Chu Tianheng, and there was also an unfamiliar number that was dialed several times.
Li Xuan smoothly called Chu Tianheng back, and while waiting for the connection, he vaguely caught Sheng Min's name.
Subconsciously turned his face away, two girls passed by beside the flower bed not far away, they were probably white-collar workers entering the workplace, with a student look on their faces, they were looking at something with their mobile phones, the two whispered to each other.
"Why? Wouldn't it be better to change it..."
"Don't be in a hurry to say bad news, it's not that bad, I think the cast that Xiao Min took over is not bad."
"That's because he's so good. Look at the days he lived in the past. Their company also likes to use him to support newcomers..."
As they walked farther and farther, the wind was still blowing, and the branches were rustling. Li Xuan couldn't hear clearly, and was about to ask what happened, when Chu Tianheng answered the phone.
"What's the matter?" Li Xuan asked, "I just came out, and the phone didn't turn on the sound."
"Someone just came to the company to look for you."
"Looking for me? Who?"
"I don't know." Chu Tianheng said, "I asked him about something urgent, but he didn't say anything. But he seemed really anxious, so I gave him your number and location... after thinking about itI don't feel very good, so..."
"It's okay. Someone called me. I'll dial back and ask. You prepare the updated information. I'll be back for the meeting in about forty minutes."
After such a short time, turned head again, and the two people who were talking just now were no longer visible, and don't know which company they entered next to them.
Li Xuan felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, and wanted to call Sheng Min, but the strange number rang again.
"Which one?"
"Li Xuan?! You finally answered the phone!" There was a man on the other end, who seemed to be arguing with someone while talking to him.
"No, you let me in."
"Sir, I'm sorry, you can't come in without a company appointment."
"Say, I have something urgent..."
The voice was very close, Li Xuan raised his eyes and saw a young man was being stopped by the security booth.
He hung up the phone and walked over: "Are you looking for me?"
The man looked at him for a second, as if he recognized him: "Yes! I'm looking for you!"
He stopped Li Xuan and ran outside without seeing him: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's too late..."
"No, what are you doing?" Li Xuan frowned, and effortlessly broke away from his hand. He felt that this person looked familiar, but he really couldn't remember, "What's the matter?"
"What's the big deal!" He just remembered that he didn't introduce himself, "I'm Deng Jing, did Sheng Min mention me to you? It doesn't matter whether you mentioned me or not...you go with me first and stop him from signing the contract."..."
Li Xuan was taken aback: "What did you say?"
"I'm not a liar!" Deng Jing misunderstood, and said with a tongue-twister, "I've seen you, maybe you haven't seen me. I saw your car last time when you came to pick up Sheng Min. Fortunately, I remember that the license plate is in the traffic bureau.Relationship...it's too troublesome to find you..."
Li Xuan interrupted him: "Sign the contract? Now?"
Seeing his expression, Deng Jing was also shocked, almost biting his tongue: "You don't know at all?"
He thought that Li Xuan didn't stop Sheng Min just because laymen didn't know the way, and judging from the current situation, he probably didn't even know that Sheng Min was going to renew his contract today.
"Sheng Min, his current company doesn't treat him well at all, and even threatens him about the two of you. You don't even know about signing the contract, so he must have never told you about it? Yin Qianpin said he doesn't mind,Sheng Min doesn't know what he's thinking, but he still wants to sign... This dog company actually let him live sign now, thinking about the traffic is crazy..."
"What does it mean that Yin Qianpin doesn't mind?" Li Xuan asked with difficulty, "Didn't you be chosen to act in the end?"
"Nonsense!" Deng Jing's eyes widened, "Sheng Min, who has always been chosen, has given up on acting himself! How come I'm involved..."
Suddenly too much news came flooding in, and Li Xuan felt that the blood in his body was about to be frozen by the cold wind.
"Where is Sheng Min now?" He interrupted Deng Jing.
"Dongyi Headquarters Building." Deng Jing said hastily, taking out his mobile phone, "It's still live... They will probably sign a contract after talking about a bunch of shitty projects, who knows when..."
"Thanks."
Li Xuan said stiffly, and walked quickly towards the parking lot.
He walked so fast that Deng Jing's long-armed and long-legged figure had difficulty chasing him for a while.
"I don't even know what Sheng Min is thinking, why continue..."
While speaking, Li Xuan had already walked to the side of the car, opened the door, started the car, and drove away.
"Hey!" Deng Jing jumped anxiously behind him, "You don't take me with you!"
On the way, Li Xuan called Sheng Min several times, but when the phone rang, he hung up automatically, but he was never picked up.
The top ten most searched are all dominated by Sheng Min's name, live broadcast, contract renewal, Dongyi... all kinds of keywords constitute a vivid Ukiyo-e.Li Xuanshun clicked into the live broadcast software, and behind the dense message barrage, he saw Sheng Min's fair and thin face.
He was sitting in the center, the focus of all the spotlights, and the slight smile on his face was a carefully disguised mask.
Li Xuan recalled receiving a call from Sheng Min yesterday, asking him when he would be home, and casually asking if he was going to meet investors tomorrow afternoon.
At that time, Li Xuan thought that he only cared about himself, and comforted him not to worry...
Why, why did you renew the contract, why did you lie to him...
Deng Jing didn't know the reason, and the fans on the barrage were also asking, but Li Xuan knew it very well.
‘I’ll help you figure out a way, and I’ll give you whatever money you want.'
But because he loves him.
Then he suddenly remembered that night, Sheng Min was lying in his arms, with eyebrows and eyes curved, and said, Li Xuan, you are so kind.
How is he good.Li Xuan punched the steering wheel in frustration.He is the worst boyfriend in the world.
Let Sheng Min give up the long-awaited opportunity that is at his fingertips for him.But still ignorant.
After driving out of the tunnel, the rain fell again without warning. Why is the winter so long, the rain, snow, wind and frost are endless.
Pedestrians shrank their necks, held up their umbrellas, and passed by in a hurry. The wind howled, causing the ribs of the umbrellas to shake and tilt, like flocs without roots in the wind, and were splashed with muddy water by the passing vehicles.
The traffic flow became slow due to the rain, and the navigation suggested that the destination was still 23 kilometers away, and it was estimated to arrive at 5:00 p.m.
Distraught, yet the red light has turned green twice, and the traffic remains motionless.
"Why don't you go! The one in front! Why is it blocked?"
The scene was so similar that Li Xuan recalled in a daze the day when he went to the airport to find Sheng Min.
What would a day be without that?Will Seung Min be freer than he is now?happier?
He pushed down the car window to try to find where the blocked traffic ended, and the horns blared outside the window.On the other side of the screen, the introduction of various new projects is coming to an end...
It was so loud that Li Xuan couldn't hear the voices of the people on the screen.I saw the host smiling and stepping aside, someone came onto the stage with a few thick stacks of documents, the excited reporter stood on the chair, trying to get a clearer angle, while Sheng Min stood slowlygot up...
"What are you doing? Why is it blocked again! I'm in a hurry! What the hell is going on!"
Harsh insults came from the car window.The red traffic jams on the map pierced his eyes like sharp knives, it was too late, everything was reminding Li Xuan.
He can't make it, barring a miracle.
"Don't rush the ones behind, there is a traffic policeman ahead, it seems to be a car accident."
Car accident, car accident...
Yes.
Sheng Min was originally a miracle in his life.
Li Xuan's Adam's apple twitched.The rain that drifted in wet his forehead hair.
He quickly took his mobile phone and logged into the online banking, transferred all the money into Sheng Min's card, and then opened the software to take a look at Sheng Min's face.
It was dark, and the bright headlights illuminated the continuous rain and the green belt in the middle of the road.
Sheng Min was walking towards the front of the stage step by step, ten meters, five meters...
Can't wait any longer.
This is too risky and impulsive, it is wrong, it is a bad idea, everyone knows this... However, at the nick of time, all emotions overwhelmed reason, clamoring that he must sit at the gambling table and place all the chipsPlay this big gamble with fate.
Sheng Min's fingertips had already touched the signature pen.
Li Xuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, turned the steering wheel abruptly, and stepped on the accelerator hard.
The roar of cars, the sound of wind and rain are infinitely amplified and roar past.
They all disappeared at a certain moment, and then he heard his own voice, saying to Sheng Min, I love you.
What day did it happen?
It doesn't matter what day it is.
I love you forever.
"Boom!"
The black car crashed straight into the isolation belt, and with a bang, the remaining leaves fell to the ground.
"oops!"
A reporter at the bottom exclaimed, seeing that the tip of the pen was about to touch the paper, the pen in Sheng Min's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
Very light sound, but so harsh.
It's unlucky, Zhang Shan thought, with a smile on her face: "Good things take time, good things take time, don't worry."
She bent down slightly to pick up the pen that had rolled to her feet, handed it to Sheng Min again, and looked at the reporter's camera below the whole time, showing a perfect smile.
One second, two seconds, no one answered.
Zhang Shan felt something was wrong.
"Xiao Min?"
She turned her face away and met a pair of indifferent eyes.
