Chapter 98

The money spent by Yuedong was really worthwhile. The hot searches that day were almost all about Glory’s concert and some of the Audience Choice Awards, while some of the awards were related to the news about the best group.

But Su Ning didn't expect that he could go up there too.

The live camera of "Kiss Please!" would partially shoot towards the audience. Although Shen Mingzheng leaned slightly to the side at that time, still half covering him at that moment, the live camera saw that it was getting lively and didn't mind making things worse, so it still filmed both of them.

Including the expressions on both sides at that moment. There were multiple camera positions at the concert, and the two of them occupied the secondary camera position for quite a while.

Although Su Ning rarely appears in public for interviews, it is impossible for fans of the group not to know him as the company owner and general agent. Moreover, on the night of the group's debut, the camera captured the two of them sitting together.

However, they were still quite reserved at that time, after all, they had just discussed the engagement not long ago, but now it is different. The fans of the group couldn't help but make a noise when they were about to say goodbye.

Su Ning has an official account on the Internet, but he rarely updates it. He posted a message a few days ago to farewell his concert, and now the comment section below is full of animated pictures taken from the concert that day and the emoticon package of the raised eyebrow smile.

If it was just posted online, Su Ning could pretend not to see it, and Shen Mingzheng knew that he was embarrassed, so he deliberately suppressed the trending searches. But if you ask him whether he regrets doing so, Shen Mingzheng definitely does not regret it.

If he had any regrets, the only thing he regretted was that he didn't get to know Su Ning earlier.

However, Su Ning later discovered that some of the company's internal work groups also secretly sent this message. Even after the group officially said goodbye, Qilin's Liang Xiaoliang also sent this message to him when he came to pick him up.

Su Ning: "...be serious."

Liang Xiaoliang: "Okay."

Today was supposed to be a serious matter. Qu Shoubai's information, the business contract to be renewed, and the docking documents had to be given to Qilin. After the limited combination expired, they said they were separated, but there was some connection between them.

Qu Shoubai is from Qilin, so of course he will return to Qilin.

Liang Xiaoliang plans to arrange a new debut group for him, and he is expected to debut as an idol again in the second half of this year. As an actor, he currently has several guest supporting roles, and he also has a leading role in a drama with Shu Miao that has not yet been aired.

It is not uncommon for idols and actors to walk the same path in the circle. In fact, there are quite a lot of them. Qu Shoubai has now completely transformed into an actor, but he feels that he is not qualified enough and still needs to be tempered. Qilin is also willing to provide him with such a path.

Qilin is the major shareholder and partner of Guangying Entertainment. Liang Xiaoliang specially invited Su Ning to watch when he signed new trainees, and there will naturally be a lot of cooperation in the future.

Ruisong is from Orange Video. He plans to start his own brand when he returns, and has discussed investment with Su Ning. He and Zhou Heng are both very creative people now, and Su Ning is very optimistic about him, so he was very happy to give him money and they are still maintaining a cooperative relationship.

Zhou Heng and Wang Ruoyi returned to Jianfeng, who were under Shen Mingzheng. Zhou Heng planned to transform from an idol to a creative singer, and Wang Ruoyi wanted to go into variety shows. Shen Mingzheng had already talked to him about being a permanent resident in a variety show. After the group disbanded, the first thing Wang Ruoyi did was to lower his head and read a book.

——He wants to take the host certificate exam.

As for Lin Zhi, he originally signed with the small studio Yuan Yuan Guang, but that studio initially depended on Jian Feng for survival. After Jian Feng changed its management, Lin Zhi would not be able to get back the operating rights for a while. The most important thing was that the boss had offended Su Ning and had always felt guilty, so he had been thinking about selling the studio and running away.

Since he was going to sell it, Su Ning thought it would be better to sell it to himself.

Someone had been sent to negotiate the acquisition, but actually it was only for Lin Zhi. After a few rounds of negotiations, the deal was almost done, but the news had not been leaked.

Lin Zhi also received the news after the concert.

He felt very reluctant to part with everyone that night, and he hugged Li Chu and others and cried for at least an hour. The internet was full of pictures of him crying. When he woke up the next day, his eyes were still swollen.

As a result, after resting for a few days, he returned to the company to discuss future matters, but when he turned around, he saw a familiar person again.

Then he learned about the acquisition.

Because the process has not been completed yet, the matter has not been announced to the public. Lin Zhi secretly went to the practice room of Light and Shadow Entertainment and wanted to give Li Chu a surprise.

He must be there!

But before he could even reach the door, he ran into Ji Mowei on the way. The two of them stared at each other for a while, and asked in unison: "Why are you here?"

"My studio was acquired by Mr. Su, so I came back," Lin Zhi said, "What about you?"

He remembered that Ji Mowei seemed to have signed with a small studio, but that studio was originally opened for him alone with money paid by his family.

"I," Ji Mowei said, "I went back and disbanded the small studio."

Lin Zhi: “Ah?”

"Don't say 'ah'," Ji Mowei said, "I plan to sign a contract with President Su."

He was also inspired by what happened to Ye Qiuxin not long ago. People will of course choose the most powerful partner that suits them best, so after careful consideration, he decided to do so.

Ji Mowei motioned Lin Zhi to walk forward, and as they walked, he said, "Before the disbandment, President Su asked us about our respective intentions. I am different from the captain. He is still interested in continuing to be an idol, but I have been an idol for a year and a half, and I have found that I still like acting more after starring in a few dramas."

He knows that he is not a professional actor, but he has gained some experience from working with different directors. He also wants to take lessons from an acting teacher and continue his studies in this field.

There may be other companies to choose from in the idol industry, but when it comes to acting, Su Ning currently has the most acting offers.

Lin Zhi: "You really want to be an actor?"

Ji Mowei nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Su has already handed me a few scripts. I have expressed my intention to him. It doesn't matter if it's a supporting role. As long as the team is good, I will accept it."

Because of his previously accumulated popularity, his acting career will be much smoother than others, but it is not easy to make such a decision. And speaking of this, Ji Mowei resolutely became an actor for other reasons.

"When I first debuted on the show, I was very dissatisfied with my second place, thinking that I would surpass Li Chu, the first place, one day," he sighed, "but in the past year and a half, I found that it is really difficult to be better than him as an idol, so I might as well change my path."

It is not an exaggeration for fans to praise Li Chu as a "natural born idol". It takes talent to be in this industry. Ji Mowei has tried and achieved some success, but now he has found what he really likes.

After listening to this, Lin Zhi thought it made sense: "Yes."

He doesn't have Ji Mowei's strong desire to win or lose. He debuted on the fringe of the industry and feels very lucky. He is usually not scheming. His professional level is not low and he is very balanced. Fans also like his happy appearance.

He just felt happier with Li Chu, and they were both determined to become idols.

The two of them walked to the door of the practice room while talking. Li Chu actually saw them from the reflection of the mirror, especially Lin Zhi, who looked sneaky and wanted to hide, but there was no way he could hide.

But Li Chu didn't move. He just waited for Lin Zhi to rush over and then hug him with a smile.

"Xiao Chu, you're scared!"

Ji Mowei followed behind and said helplessly: "Okay, he has already discovered you."

Lin Zhi: "Impossible!"

Then he shook Li Chu's arm and asked, "Did you find out?"

Li Chu told the truth: "I saw it a long time ago."

"Ah..." Lin Zhi was a little disappointed, but then he cheered up and said, "By the way, I came here today to tell you some new news that you definitely don't know!"

What he wanted to talk about was that he and Ji Mowei had both come here to sign for Su Ning, and Li Chu also knew this.

Su Ning was the first person to ask for his opinion on future plans. He knew that Li Chu wanted to continue to be an idol, but joining a group again and being a solo artist were two different things. From Su Ning's point of view, Li Chu could do both, as each had its own advantages.

In fact, when he first joined Glory, Li Chu's plan was to go solo after the group's term ended, but now he has changed his mind.

It is obvious that Lin Zhi wants to join the group again, and he plans to be with Lin Zhi, and after joining the group, he can release solo songs anytime he wants.

But Li Chu is no longer as defensive as he was at the beginning and only trusts himself. He also has his own trustworthy friends in this circle.

The other members of the group have their own plans, and he and Lin Zhi will also look for new teammates at this time.

It's not that Su Ning hadn't looked for someone before. Many people had approached him several months before the group's contract expired, and he took the initiative to choose, but he didn't find the right one. Su Ning didn't need to form a group with many people this time. With Lin Zhi and Li Chu, it would be enough to add one more vocal. It would be even better if he had some creative ability, and he also had to be good-looking.

But such a person is hard to come by, and even Shen Mingzheng couldn't think of a suitable one after thinking about it.

Even if he counted his memories after several years, there were hardly any idols in the industry who could match Li Chu's level. Su Ning even went to Qilin Entertainment for a few rounds, intending to snatch one from Liang Xiaoliang if nothing worked.

They both knew that a group needs to have balanced abilities and each have their own strengths. If there is a gap, it will be more disharmonious, so this candidate cannot be chosen casually.

And they are not in that rush.

In the past year and a half, Glory released three albums and participated in countless activities. Everyone has hardly had a break and has been working non-stop every day. Now that they can still carry out activities as individuals, it is already a break for them. There is no need to seamlessly connect to a new group, as it is too tiring. They might as well take this time to reflect.

The three of them were sitting in the practice room discussing this matter. Snow was just piling up on the side of the door. She reached out her hand and greeted the three of them, saying, "What are you doing sitting in a row here?"

The two sides had met many times before and were already familiar with each other. Jixue was carrying a large bag and asked, "Do you want to eat fruit?"

She actually took something out of her backpack, which was packaged dried fruits, and then handed them to the three people to eat.

"It's delicious," Lin Zhi opened the candy cane and took a bite. He then asked, "Where did you buy it?"

Jixue said: "I didn't buy this from outside, it was given to me by Wen Zijing, ah, he's the male lead in my play."

"Hometown God" was just finished not long ago, and Ji Xue met him today because he also came.

Ji Mowei had some impression of this person and asked: "What is he doing here?"

Ji Xue: "Come and sign the contract."

After participating in the play directed by Su Ning, it was really difficult to get over him.

Moreover, people in the industry heard that he was going to work with Chen Huang on a series of dramas and was already working on it. This was a great opportunity for an actor, so Wen Zijing gritted his teeth and came over.

He originally felt that being a self-employed person gave him enough freedom, but looking at Jixue, he felt that she was not restricted in any way. Su Ning fully respected her wishes.

We still have to sign the contract now, otherwise we may not be able to sign the contract even after several works of Light and Shadow Entertainment are broadcast.

Li Chu: "Ah..."

He recalled that when President Su first took over, there were not so many people in Guangying Entertainment. He was the only one who had three seniors who were mocked by outsiders as “old, weak, sick and disabled”. Now, those three seniors have received more acting offers, and the company is becoming more and more lively.
