Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.

—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.

Chapter 239 Investment is fine, but how about a contract of servitude? (1/2)

Seeing He Jinnian's attitude, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They are all intelligent people, and He Jinnian has probably already guessed their purpose in coming. Under such circumstances, He Jinnian still showed them great goodwill, which means that the probability of success of this matter is very high!

Of course, we'll need to discuss the details first.

Xiao Lou poured tea for everyone, and Liu Rulan didn't bring up the matter at the first opportunity. Instead, she chatted casually with He Jinnian for a few minutes.

After drinking about half of her tea, Liu Rulan finally got to the point: "Why haven't I seen Manager He today?"

"He went to take care of something."

He Jinnian said something ambiguous.

In reality, He Wenming returned to his former employer, Yunheng Entertainment.

He Jinnian was previously an artist under Yunheng Entertainment, and He Wenming was also assigned to him by Yunheng Entertainment. Later, the two gradually developed and gained confidence and influence. Because they did not want to continue to be bound by Yunheng Entertainment's script of "nurturing" newcomers, He Jinnian and He Wenming eventually started their own studio.

Although it is still nominally affiliated with Yunheng Entertainment, the two sides have little to do with each other anymore, and they have lived peacefully together over the years.

However, due to the immense popularity brought by He Jinnian, Banana Video, which is associated with Yunheng Entertainment, also gained huge traffic and has been thriving in recent years by relying on the copyright of He Jinnian's works.

Now that He Jinnian wants to move behind the scenes, their studio doesn't have any artists that He Wenming can take over, so He Wenming plans to go to Yunheng Entertainment first to explore potential talents.

However, now that He Jinnian has seen Shu Han, he feels that it is unnecessary.

He knew a little about Shu Han's situation, after all, he had only become famous a few years earlier than Shu Han, and they had even been competitors once or twice. It wasn't until Shu Han went to Hollywood that the two completely lost contact.

"When did Teacher Shu return?"

"It was probably before the Spring Festival. I went back to my hometown a while ago."

Are you still planning to leave?

"I'm not planning to leave."

"Ready to go solo?"

"Pretty much, but I'm currently considering joining the studio, so I'm still thinking about it."

He Jinnian was well aware of Shu Han's abilities and character. He originally wanted to invite Shu Han to their studio directly, but after glancing at Liu Rulan and Xiao He who were standing silently to the side, he probably knew that this would not be so easy.

Since the people were all brought in through Liu Rulan's connections, it was basically decided that they would be staying at Ling Hui's studio.

However, He Jinnian still asked persistently, "Is Teacher Shu interested in our studio? You know He Wenming, his abilities are very suitable for being your agent."

Shu Han shook his head firmly, politely declining: "I'm sorry, Brother Jin Nian, I don't currently have any plans to live in Beijing long-term."

He Jinnian's studio is in Beijing, and he himself resides in Beijing. He Wenming is from Shanghai, but when setting up his studio, he, as He Jinnian's agent, did not hesitate to choose Beijing.

Once Shu Han joins He Jinnian's studio, it means he will likely be active in Beijing from now on.

Shu Han still prefers Shanghai, mainly because he knows more people there, and most of his old connections are based there.

He Jinnian immediately said with some regret, "Oh, that's a real shame."

He Jinnian has no plans to disband his studio yet; this is his way of leaving himself an escape route.

Therefore, no matter how satisfied He Jinnian is with Shu Han, he cannot possibly give He Wenming away to another studio.
