Chapter 27
After listening to this, Su Ning was a little surprised, so he thought about it carefully and answered: "It's not guilt, guilt is only a part, a very small part."
It is definitely untenable to say that guilt drove him to do these things. After all, the previous things were done by the original owner and have nothing to do with Su Ning at the moment.
"Pathetic? Not really," Su Ning shook his head. "He is my artist. I am responsible for him. I must provide him with the best solution to the best of my ability. It's that simple."
This was his principle as a top agent.
So it can't be considered as a sacrifice, it's just that he has always done this.
Shen Mingzheng did not stop asking, and continued to look him in the eye and said, "Your artist? Guangying Entertainment has more than one artist."
"No, no, it's different. I'm not the president of Guangying Entertainment, so I can't be responsible for all the artists. If it were me, I wouldn't hire anyone casually."
Su Ning spread his hands. He had a very strict definition of "my artist". Although many people were trying their best to get into the entertainment industry, there were not many good talents suitable to be artists.
"Mr. Shen, you are also an industry insider. I don't know what you think, but when I entered this industry, I believed that the best way to be responsible to the audience is to let the right people stay in the right place."
“Some people are born to be on stage, but the road to the stage is blocked by obstacles that shouldn’t exist. I should show up, and that’s where I ‘fit’.”
Su Ning's voice was very soft, but he said this from the heart.
“If talented people are really ruined like this, isn’t this a huge loss for the industry, and even the audience?”
Of course his main purpose in entering the industry was to make money, but if he really had no faith in his heart, Su Ning would not have been able to grow bigger step by step.
Even if he starts out in hell after traveling through a book, what he insists on will not change.
Because Shen Mingzheng had indeed told him a lot of information before, Su Ning's answer now was very serious.
But he didn't know how Shen Mingzheng would understand it.
After hearing this, some people might just think that he is just talking big and empty words, and don't take it seriously, and just laugh it off.
As for Shen Mingzheng, he was silent for a long time after hearing this, and finally laughed softly and said: "It is Li Chu's luck to meet you."
He believed what Su Ning said, but unfortunately, he had never met such a Su Ning in his previous life.
However, it’s not too late to get to know each other now.
"What are your plans for the next step?"
He quickly changed the subject.
If I have to say, Su Ning has accomplished most of what he wanted to do.
After knowing the truth, he took action against Shen Huai without hesitation because he had to force this man out of the program crew. During this period of time, he felt at ease "entrusting" Li Chu to the closed training camp of the program crew. Li Chu, whose mobile phone was taken away and could not see news from the outside world, would not be disturbed by some information.
But the crisis of Guangying Entertainment cannot be easily solved. It is a "chronic disease" that existed before he traveled through the book. All Su Ning can do is to rescue the promising Li Chu as soon as possible and prevent him from being affected by these things.
He will do his best to make Shen Huai pay the price of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting himself by eight hundred, and will not let the other party succeed, but this may not save Guangying Entertainment, not to mention that the people in the company are not on the same page with him.
"To be honest, I don't have any plans," Su Ning sighed, "Let's take it one step at a time."
Then Shen Mingzheng proposed a new suggestion to Su Ning: "Su Ning, do you want to continue to cooperate with me?"
"Mr. Shen, is there any need for you to cooperate with me?" Su Ning smiled, "You seem to be able to handle it easily and don't need help from others."
Even if Shen's Pictures has no money, it is the fault of Shen Ting and his son, and has nothing to do with Shen Mingzheng. No matter how the matter is settled, it will not be his turn to take the blame.
But Shen Mingzheng shook his head.
"Su Ning, you think too little of the Shen family," he said, "and you think too little of the old man. I'm not that special in the master's heart."
When he said this, light and shadow fell on his face, alternately bright and dark, making his eyes look even deeper.
Too many people say that he has an "unusual background", and Shen Mingzheng does not deny this.
But for a child who was found, Mr. Shen did have some family affection, but it was not much, especially when it came to choosing an heir, he was extremely harsh.
In fact, when Shen Mingzheng was sent to Haicheng, he had no idea that Shen's Pictures was in a serious financial crisis at the time. He didn't even realize this in his previous life.
Because at that time, Shen Huai relied on the dragnet to successfully devour Guangying Entertainment and had perfectly covered up the matter.
Now, the crisis of Shen's Pictures is as imminent as that of Guangying Entertainment.
Shen Mingzheng was parachuted in with real power, which was an advantage given to him by the old man. At the same time, concealing key information was also a pre-arranged disadvantage. Shen Huai knew the inside story best and could make arrangements in advance, but he could never get the identity of the real heir to Shen's Pictures. Each had its own advantages and disadvantages.
The crisis of Shen's Pictures, in the eyes of the Shen family, is just a screening test.
To some extent, Shen Mingzheng and Shen Huai can be regarded as peers of the Shen family. Both are in the Shen family's pool of heirs. Old Master Shen specially picked out the two of them to fight like beasts.
The most important thing is that there was no pre-set topic for this fight. When the old man sent Shen Mingzheng to Haicheng, he just told him: "You suffered a lot when you were not home. Go, go to Haicheng and have some fun. If you don't have enough money, just tell Chen Tao at any time."
He looks kind and loving.
But if Shen Mingzheng really just "played around" like this, and even if he quickly achieved success in investing in Ouputu 4, this would be far from meeting the Shen family's requirements.
Fortunately, Shen Mingzheng did not indulge in short-lived success, but because of this achievement, some senior management members in Shen's Pictures became concerned about him and gradually revealed some inside information. Chen Tao also treated him with great dedication, and the two found many clues. Not long ago, they figured out the matter.
This matter was not as Liang Xiaoliang thought, as he was the one who came with orders. Shen Mingzheng was also a part of the game from the very beginning.
Su Ning was also not expecting this when he heard all this backstage. He thought silently for a long time, trying to judge whether these words were true or false. However, it was already very unusual that Shen Mingzheng could talk to him to this extent.
Afterwards, Shen Mingzheng explained his true intentions.
“Su Ning, cooperate with me,” he said, “We are the best partners, Shen Huai and Jiang Chenfeng are nothing.”
"The important thing is, if I take over Shen's Pictures, you can also keep Guangying Entertainment and use this as an opportunity to become the actual controller of the company. You should take that position."
But when Su Ning heard his words, he felt that it was a bit magical and did not agree immediately.
"If Mr. Shen says he can save Shen's Pictures, I believe him," he complimented, "but if he wants to save Guangying Entertainment, I don't believe him."
Guangying Entertainment has a lot of bad debts.
Shen Mingzheng looked at him: "Of course I can't save Guangying Entertainment, but you can."
“How can I…”
"Change your engagement partner, Su Ning, and let me be your partner," he said, "I am different from Shen Huai. I will not touch the things in the suicide note. If you don't believe me, we can sign a prenuptial agreement in advance."
"With that money, you can save Guangying Entertainment. I believe in you. You can do it."
“This is a win-win for us.”
Su Ning: ...
In his previous life, the workaholic king couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard these words.
Even though he realized that Shen Mingzheng wanted him to get the inheritance in this way to turn the tide and there was not much emotional factor involved, he was still shocked.
It was the first time that Su Ning saw someone propose marriage. Well, it should be considered a proposal, as it was discussed in the form of a business cooperation.
On the surface, Shen Mingzheng was indeed too calm, as if he was putting forward a proposal in the conference room.
But this place was located in the backstage and not many people would come, so the light was insufficient and Su Ning could not see his entire appearance clearly.
Shen Mingzheng had made a lot of preparations, but his hands trembled slightly when he said that. After he finished speaking, he even unconsciously clenched the corner of his clothes. He was actually very nervous, but not only did Su Ning not see it, perhaps even he himself did not notice it.
He just stared at Su Ning, wanting to hear a reply.
But after thinking about it, Su Ning did not agree immediately.
"Thank you for telling me this," he said, "but I need to think about it."
Everyone knows that the legacy left by Mr. Su is a life-saving straw, but precisely because of this, we should be more cautious.
Su Ning knew that he knew too little about the original work and he had not been here for long. Everyone in this world is a hidden talent. Even if he had the huge sum of money in his hands at that time, he might not be able to keep it.
He felt that Shen Mingzheng was a little disappointed when he heard this reply, but he didn't say anything. He just said, "It's normal for you not to fully trust me now. It's okay. I will prove it to you with practical actions."
Su Ning: ...
Okay, stop talking about it, it really does feel like a marriage proposal.
He didn't say this out loud. After the two of them walked out of here, they still appeared polite to outsiders.
Not long after that, Liang Xiaoliang came over in a hurry and tried to pull him away.
After hearing the whole thing, Liang Xiaoliang opened his mouth in surprise.
The reason why Su Ning told him all this was that Mr. Liang was indeed one of the few qualified partners, and at this time it was the other party who first told him the existing information, which was considered a courtesy.
Secondly, he knew that there was actually no essential competitive relationship between Kirin, which focused on the idol industry, and Guangying Entertainment, which had always focused on the production of TV dramas and movies. After all, there was only one Li Chu in such a huge Guangying Entertainment.
On the contrary, as Mr. Liang said, if Guangying Entertainment goes bankrupt, the pattern of Haicheng will change drastically, which will have a great impact on Qilin.
Apart from anything else, the studio that Jiang Chenfeng set up was originally for his own selfish desires, but now that it has grown, it is gradually moving towards the idol industry. This is because talent shows have been very popular in recent years, so he and Liang Xiaoliang have always been at odds.
Compared to winning or losing in a replacement match, Liang Xiaoliang knew which was more important. He watched the entire stage today and knew that Li Chu's performance was better than before, so he also expected the result.
Compared to Li Chu, he now feels that Su Ning is more important.
"So that's how it is..."
Liang Xiaoliang put down his chopsticks and stopped eating after hearing this. He muttered to himself, "This really sounds like something the old man of the Shen family would do."
The Shen family has been established for a hundred years and has grown and prospered till now. Is there anyone in it who is a simple person?
The current competition among the younger generations can be described as a fight for the throne among nine sons; it may even be more intense than that, as the Shen family really has the throne.
Su Ning was still able to stay calm and eat.
He was thinking about Shen Mingzheng.
I always thought that this person was aloof, like a flower on a mountain top, but he is actually quite crazy at heart and seems to be willing to do anything to achieve his goals.
Do you really want to work with him, uh, marry him?
Su Ning couldn't give the answer for a moment.
The post-production of the Idol Star Chart Four-place Match was rushed out overtime, replacing the original live broadcast time of the finals.
During this period of time, neither Shen Huai nor Sang Le explained any further about this, as if it didn't matter anymore.
After a few days of public discussion, the heat of the scandal died down a bit. However, after the official program of the replacement match was broadcast, Idol Star Map 4, which had been on the hot search list since it was broadcast, once again set off social networks.
"Before the show started, I couldn't even imagine that Qilin would actually come to participate, and there were two of them, including Qu Shoubai!"
"What's even more frightening is that Qilin came to participate in the competition and actually lost."
"I didn't lose, thank you. It's just the initial evaluation, and Qu Shoubai is also S, which doesn't mean anything."
"What I'm saying is that the performance level of the replacement match is comparable to the finals, right?"
"Sang Le will withdraw from the competition? Since you have an improper relationship with your mentor, please withdraw from the competition like someone else. Li Chu and Qilin will advance to the finals together."
"support!"
On the day when the replacement match was broadcast, the popularity of Idol Star Map 4 on the video platform reached a new high, and the discussion among the participating students increased. The official account that Li Chu had just established on the social platform skyrocketed in number of fans overnight, and countless people expressed their love for him. It is no exaggeration to say that he became famous overnight.
Just as Su Ning said, when he stands there and is seen by everyone, the audience will choose him.
That day, Su Ning took a few glances at the lively discussion and was very happy for Li Chu. He also knew that the loss caused by the original owner to the program team could be compensated. Just by looking at the message sent by Chen Yuan, he knew that the other party was very satisfied.
However, Li Chu's schedule was not so smooth and there were many ups and downs.
The next step was to select songs for the performance. When Li Chu was forming the team and selecting members, he did not choose Sugikawa from Qilin first, but chose vocalist Song Yu who had demonstrated his creative ability during stage performances. His number of votes at the time was not low, but he was at a disadvantage as a pure singer on such a stage.
Then Qu Shoubai selected the people, and the two Qilins were naturally grouped together.
The next performance was a PK between the two groups. The song they danced to was the same, and this song was randomly selected from the songs provided by the program team. The person who was eligible for the lottery was Li Chu.
He might be really unlucky. Among so many songs, he had to pick out Qilin's representative work "Put a Crown on Me".
The time for the replacement match is very tight, and familiarity with the original song is very important. "Put a Crown on Me" is first of all a song for a four-person group. It is quite difficult to change it into a five-person group, and it has to be performed on stage in a short period of time. Qu Shoubai's group undoubtedly has a greater advantage.
The last shot of the first round of the replacement match was Li Chu looking a little dazed while holding the song card he had drawn.
He looked at his teammates. Qu Shoubai and Shanchuan were already high-fiving in front of the camera. His team members Song Yu and Ding Xi looked at each other with an expression of "what should we do?"
That night, the term #黎楚倒幸运蛋# even topped the trending searches, and his somewhat dazed expression was made into an emoticon package and widely circulated.
Although the audience was laughing, most of the fans who had just picked Li Chu were a little worried.
The gap between him and Qu Shoubai was originally very small, and now the other side has the huge advantage of home court. It is not certain whether Sang Le will withdraw from the competition or not. Even if he plays dead, there is nothing you can do. Now there is only one spot in the replacement match.
What if I fail to advance and get beaten down?
Qilin’s people can still have a way out if they return to the company, but what about Guangying Entertainment?
While Li Chu was achieving success but also facing numerous challenges, Guangying Entertainment was having a hard time.
First, more and more employees started to change jobs, then the co-investors of several projects suddenly withdrew their capital, and then the cash flow hit rock bottom and the capital chain broke, and the company's difficulties could no longer be concealed.
After the replacement match was broadcast, Su Ning received a call from Su Hongda in the middle of the night. The other party no longer cursed him with anger, but said to him in a hurry: "Several shareholders want to sell their shares and are waiting for the shareholders' meeting. Damn, these bastards have embezzled so much money!"
"Xiao Ning, please give us some advice. What should we do?"
"Please."
