Chapter 35

Even Shen Mingzheng, who was reborn, still found this incident very novel.

After all, Ou Tu Si's previous life ended in a mess, destroyed in the power struggle. Many talented students had almost no chance to succeed again. Only Ji Mowei managed to make a name for himself.

Not only Li Chu, but also these people who should have been drowned by fate were handed over to Su Ning. Who knows what changes will happen.

Regarding this matter, Chen Yuan discussed the next steps with Su Ning and Shen Mingzheng long before the finals.

Director Chen had planned this a long time ago, but she couldn't choose between Shen Mingzheng and Su Ning. She was afraid of offending one of them, and she was also afraid of losing balance with the interests of the platform.

And it just so happened that after Shen Huai fell not long ago, the person in charge of Orange Video was replaced. After discussion, they decided to take a gamble and agreed to follow Chen Yuan's opinion.

After all, it really worked, and the platform can make a lot of money. In addition, there will be the fifth and sixth seasons of Idol Star Map in the future, and it can continue to operate in the long term, which is equivalent to a golden signboard.

Today, Chen Yuan saw Shen Mingzheng and Su Ning like this, and she knew that there was no need to worry about offending them. It didn't matter who they were, especially now that Qilin had invested in Guangying Entertainment, which would have more experience, and Shen's Films had a complete production team. Not to mention, Xiao Shen always knew how to write songs.

Su Ning was really impressed by this point.

At that time, he just thought that Shen Mingzheng was extraordinary, but he didn't expect that he was so powerful that he was almost omnipotent and could also create independently.

Moreover, after taking on this job, it was a foregone conclusion that he and Shen Mingzheng would continue to cooperate in depth in all aspects.

The current light and shadow entertainment is indeed unable to fully exert the true influence of the debut group of idols. It is the best choice to take on this project together with Shen's Pictures and share this cake.

Therefore, it is too one-sided to say that Su Ning decided to marry Shen Mingzheng in order to obtain the inheritance and the power of the Shen family. He made up his mind completely because of this person.

The performances on the stage are still going on. Apart from the singing and dancing in the previous part, the most important part of the finals is of course the announcement of the rankings.

As the music started, Su Ning, whose mind was full of follow-up work, had to concentrate on the results at hand.

Although he would take on the operation work regardless of whether Li Chu could debut or not, it would be the best if his own artist was in the debut group.

As for Shen Mingzheng, he found Su Ning's nervous look very interesting. So while others were looking at the stage, he was looking at Su Ning sitting on the side.

The host of this finals is very good at keeping people in suspense. Every time each result is announced, it is extremely tense and exciting. The rankings are announced from the middle, starting with the fourth place.

After a brief introduction, what caused the audience to scream was that the fourth place winner was Qu Shoubai from the qualifying round!

He received more than 30 million votes, which was always the first place in the previous seasons. But this season, he could only get fourth place.

This is enough to show how popular Ou Tu Si is this season.

Many people have discussed online before, whether the organization voting for the play-in match was too late? Is there a huge gap with the previous members? Is this fair?

But in fact it is still in time. With enough explosion, everything is still in time.

In fact, due to the unique setting of the competition, the qualifying matches also attracted a lot of die-hard fans. Not to mention those who advanced, such as Qu Shoubai and Li Chu, even those who did not advance, such as Song Yu, saw their number of fans on the platform almost doubled, so it can be said that everyone gained something.

As Qu Shoubai walked forward, besides being excited for him, people couldn't help but think of Li Chu's ranking.

You know, when Li Chu advanced in the qualifying round, his votes were higher than his.

What was particularly exciting was Qu Shoubai's speech after he came on stage. He was a child star and was always calm in the show before, but now he couldn't help but get excited, and his eyes were a little red.

In addition to first thanking his fans who have always supported him and cultivated his company, he also mentioned one person in particular.

"Thank you to the people who have been by my side since the qualifying round. I have had a smoother journey than most people. It is undeniable that this is a kind of luck. But I saw from him the persistence beyond luck and the hard work beyond talent. Thank you very much."

"I will definitely face everyone with a better self in the future."

“Thanks to everyone for giving me this platform.”

No name was mentioned, but everyone could guess who it was.

Su Ning was quite surprised when he heard this. He knew that Li Chu had made friends here, but he didn't expect that he was so sincere.

He was worried that Li Chu was a little introverted and that he wouldn't get along well with others. Now it seems that he was overthinking.

The old father was very pleased and a little moved.

Even later on, Qu Shoubai was not the only one who mentioned Li Chu.

The audience had a rough idea of ​​the other rankings. Judging from the popularity on the Internet, they were pretty much what everyone had guessed. In the end, the competition for first and second place, as Su Ning had expected, really fell to Ji Mowei and Li Chu.

When the two men stood up, the screams from the audience never stopped.

The host stood in the middle and said a lot of words to whet the audience's appetite, pulling at everyone's heartstrings, and finally said: "A very interesting thing, when our voting was closed, the difference between the first and second place was only 7 votes."

"Yes, it's just a single digit difference."

"Then who will be our powerful and lucky No. 1?"

The spotlight shone on the two people, and after a tense drumbeat accompanied by the screams of the audience, the even stronger light fell on——

On Li Chu!

It’s Li Chu!

It's really him!

With more than 60 million votes, he is the number one in the fourth picture!

At that moment, Su Ning could hardly hear any other sounds. He could only hear the screams of fans that almost broke through the sky.

He knew that the child's fate had changed at this moment.

It was a wonderful feeling. The person under the bright lights was not Su Ning himself, but he was also truly happy and truly gained an incomparable sense of accomplishment.

This is a moment he will never forget when he first started as an agent. He applauded the artist's success, but he was different from the others who applauded. He shared the honor.

He even created this glory.

Anyone who can debut in this kind of competition is lucky. Although Ji Mowei, who came in second, felt a little regretful, he didn't look completely unprepared mentally.

As the second place winner, he spoke first, and naturally he also thanked his fans. Ji Mowei does not have a company. His family opened a small studio for him, where he is the only one. After many thoughts, his last words were: "I am very grateful to my opponents, my future teammates. As he said, there is still a long way to go in the future."

"We'll see. I won't always be second."

Xiaosha, on the other hand, seemed unwilling to admit defeat.

Tonight, Li Chu, who was a dark horse and won first place and was cueed several times, emphasized one person in his speech after he stepped onto the stage.

Not his teammate, but Su Ning.

"Not long ago, I would never have thought that I would be standing here. I even thought dreams were a luxury."

"Thank you for changing me."

"But I want to thank one person in particular, Su Ning, my boss, who is also the one who brought me here. Thank you."

Li Chu knew that Su Ning's reputation had improved a lot since the last public opinion storm, but many people still remained skeptical of him. However, he just wanted to bring it up, no matter what others thought.

"Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. He is the irreplaceable and most important person in my life."

This is a live broadcast. As Li Chu spoke, a live camera cut to Su Ning in the audience.

The public hasn't seen him for some time.

Ever since Su Ning said he wanted to quit the entertainment industry, he has been very well behaved and has never shown his face again.

The financial crisis of Guangying Entertainment itself did not attract much attention. At most, people in the industry would discuss it heatedly. In the eyes of the general public, the company did not go bankrupt anyway. Some adjustments in company operations are common. They do not understand the rest.

Now when Su Ning appeared as the official CEO of Guangying Entertainment, many people had not yet reacted and the live broadcast barrage was suddenly filled up.

"Hey, is this person going back to inherit the family business?"

"Well, it was a misunderstanding before. Stay away from scumbags and mistresses, and it's not impossible to work hard on your career."

"Former fan, I have to say, what a beautiful face. Wow, why do I feel like she looks better than before?"

"Maybe it's because career makes people shine. Don't tell me, just looking at this face, I'm shamefully moved again."

"Well, since it's all a misunderstanding, it's no big deal for a beauty hound to lick someone, prprprpr."

The comments were infinitely more friendly than those at the development conference. I don't know if I should mention the four major successes, but that was enough to make the public more tolerant of him.

There were even some excited Li Chu fans who came over to express their gratitude.

"Thank you for withdrawing!"

"Thank you for choosing us, Xiao Chu!"

Li Chu's speech was longer, so he was of course the main camera. The picture of Su Ning was always placed in the second camera position.

This side camera was only aimed at Su Ning's position, but Shen Mingzheng was too close to him, so it was inevitable that some of it would be affected.

The live broadcast on the video platform is more flexible than that on TV stations. Several different camera angles can be shown in the live broadcast in the form of different channels. It is very comprehensive, and the screen popups of different camera angles are also separate.

When the two of them appeared at the same time, the speed at which the second-camera footage, which was not watched by many people before, flashed by obviously became faster.

"??? Who is this?"

“@偶图四, do you think we are outsiders? With such a good-looking face, why don’t you let her debut together?”

"He's the boss, didn't you see where he was sitting?"

“Do all bosses look like this now?”

"Mr. Liang next to him said that it was not the case, and that these two were special cases. But I do know Su Ning, who is this person?"

Shen Mingzheng indeed rarely shows up in public, but some people still know him and explained him in the comments, and someone who knows the situation even said a few more words.

"Don't ask what this person's name is. Can't you see? They are a couple. Su Ning didn't just quit the entertainment circle to pursue his career. He quit the entertainment circle to get married. It's a business marriage."

"Business marriage? So there's no love involved?"

"That's for sure. Didn't Su Ning's love brain just get cured?"

"There's no love, but the looks are great, that's fine too, you two are very kind to my eyes."

However, the camera did not stay in Su Ning for too long. Everyone who saw this moment seemed to quickly accept the fact of the business marriage.

What's wrong with a business marriage? It's better than a troublemaker like Shen Huai.

Su Ning knew that the camera was filming him, so he waved in that direction and sat there in a more serious posture. He and Shen Mingzheng looked quite businesslike.

But after listening to Li Chu's heartfelt words of thanks and the camera moved away, Mr. Shen frowned and secretly held Su Ning's hand under the chair.

Su Ning asked him quietly, "What's wrong?"

"Su Ning, let's get married tomorrow," said Mr. Shen, who was very businesslike, and his words were very serious. "I'll ask Chen Tao to make an appointment for tomorrow morning. He should have someone he knows."

He felt that he had to hurry up to avoid any more trouble.

Su Ning refused the first time because he could not fully trust Shen Mingzheng, so he wanted to cooperate first and see how it goes; the second time he refused was because his own future was uncertain, so he decided to wait a little longer for the sake of caution.

This third time, there is no reason to refuse.

After all, everything had been made clear in front of the old man of the Shen family. Su Ning really needed the money and shares, and he was not so reassured to keep them in Su Hongda's hands.

Su Ning thought about it, then nodded seriously.

There are many shots here, so Shen Mingzheng cannot make any big movements. Su Ning looked at him and felt that he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and his mind seemed to be blank for a moment.

Alas, isn't this the default?

Su Ning was still a little bit puzzled. After meeting Mr. Shen, the Shen family's issues were resolved and they talked it out. It was just that because the company was too busy recently and they had to discuss the operations of the debut group, they had no time.

So Su Ning now has only one question: "Will we be there in time tomorrow morning?"

"It's still in time!" He heard Shen Mingzheng's reply after he reacted, "It's definitely in time." Yan Shan paused.

On the stage, Li Chu and seven other people who had formed a group stood there, with confetti falling on them. The name of the group, Glory, appeared on the screen.

The meaning of "glory" fits the theme song of this season's fourth episode, and it is also a beautiful blessing.

However, Shen Mingzheng just took a look at this time. He already knew what was going on, so his mind was full of other things.

——For example, why is the Civil Affairs Bureau closed at night?

Well, tomorrow isn't too late.

The previously agreed-upon group operations have not yet been fully handed over to Su Ning and Shen Mingzheng. The newly formed group will be accepting media interviews all night tonight. After a night's rest, they will have several commercials scheduled to be filmed in the next two days.

This was a task that the Orange Video platform had decided on long ago and it was also the highest priority, so it had not been handed over to Su Ning and others so quickly.

After Li Chu came down from the stage, he wanted to look for Su Ning again, but he was too busy. As soon as he turned around, he was dragged away by the program crew. The media were still waiting outside.

After his debut, he still had to pay back the money his family owed. After Li Chu became famous after participating in the qualifying competition, his family situation was almost completely exposed. It was no secret that his family went bankrupt and he had no choice but to drop out of his studies abroad. It was also a fact that he had spent all the 500,000 yuan given by Guangying Entertainment. Now the money for shooting the commercial is divided among seven people. It’s not a lot, but it’s an emergency. No matter what, this has to be given priority.

But where did Su Ning go?

During the break in filming the commercial, Li Chu asked the people around him.

"Wait a little longer. You will meet him many times in the future. I heard that the operation of the group will be handed over to them in the future," the staff of the program team told him, "We have to let Mr. Su and his team prepare first."

So that's it.

Then Li Chu felt relieved.
