Chapter 98
The money spent by Yuedong was really not wasted. The hot searches on that day were almost all about Glory’s concert and some of the audience choice awards, and some of the awards were related to news about the best group.
But Su Ning didn't expect that he could go up there too.
Part of the live broadcast of "Kiss Please!" was filmed towards the audience. Although Shen Mingzheng slightly turned sideways at that time, he was still half-covered at that moment, but the live broadcast camera was eager to watch the fun and still filmed both of them.
Including the expressions of both parties 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 seldom appears in public for interviews, it is impossible for fans of the group not to know him as the company owner and general agent. What's more, on the night of the group's debut, the camera captured the two of them sitting together.
But at that time, they seemed quite reserved, after all, the engagement was just agreed not long ago, but now it is different. When they were about to say goodbye, the fans of the group couldn't help but make a noise.
Su Ning has an official account on the Internet, but he rarely updates it. He posted one a few days ago because of his farewell concert. 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 if 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 were also secretly sending this message. Even after the group officially said goodbye, when Qilin’s Liang Xiaoliang came to pick them up, he also sent this message to him.
Su Ning: "...be serious."
Liang Xiaoliang: "Okay."
Today we were supposed to talk about serious matters. Some of Qu Shoubai's information and the business contracts and connections that were to be renewed had to be given to Qilin. After the limited group expired, they said they were separated, but there was still 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 in the second half of this year. As an actor, he currently has several guest supporting roles, and there is also a leading role in a drama with Shu Miao that has not been broadcast yet.
There are many idols and actors who go the same route in the circle. 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 willing to provide him with such a path.
Qilin is the major shareholder and partner of Guangying Entertainment. When Liang Xiaoliang signed new trainees before, he specially invited Su Ning to watch it, and naturally there will be a lot of cooperation in the future.
Ruisong is backed by Orange Video. He plans to create his own label 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 still maintain 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 singer-songwriter, and Wang Ruoyi wanted to go into variety shows. Shen Mingzheng had already talked him into being a regular on a variety show. After the disbandment, 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 Yuanyaoguang, but that studio initially depended on Jianfeng for survival. After Jianfeng changed its manager, Lin Zhi's operating rights would not be returned 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 it was going to be sold, Su Ning thought it would be better to sell it to himself.
Someone has been sent to discuss the acquisition. In fact, they were only targeting Lin Zhi. After negotiating the price several times, the deal was almost done, but the news has not been leaked.
Lin Zhi also received the news after the concert.
That night, he felt extremely reluctant to be separated from everyone, and he hugged Li Chu and others and cried for at least an hour. The Internet was full of pictures of him crying, and his eyes were still swollen when he woke up the next day.
As a result, after resting for a few days, he returned to the company to discuss the next 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, this matter has not been announced to the public. Lin Zhi sneaked into the practice room of Guangying 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 again," Lin Zhi said, "What about you?"
He remembered that Ji Mowei seemed to have signed with a small studio, but that studio was originally funded by his family and opened for him alone.
"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 Mr. Su."
He was also inspired by what happened to Ye Qiuxin not long ago. People will of course choose the most suitable and capable partner for themselves, so after careful consideration, he decided to do so.
Ji Mowei motioned Lin Zhi to go forward, and as they walked, he said, "Before we disbanded, 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 the past year and a half, and after acting in a few dramas, I found that I still like acting more."
He knows that he is not a professional, but he has gained some experience from being trained by different directors. He also wants to find an acting teacher to take lessons and continue his studies in this field.
Maybe there are other companies to choose from in the idol industry, but in terms of 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 handed me a few scripts. I have expressed my opinion 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 path to becoming an actor will be much smoother than others, but it is not easy to make such a decision. And speaking of this, Ji Mowei also has other reasons for resolutely becoming an actor.
"When I first debuted on the show, I was not convinced that I came in second place, and I thought that one day I would definitely surpass Li Chu, who was in first place," he sighed, "but in the past year and a half, I found that it is really difficult to be an idol like him, so I might as well find another way."
Fans’ praise of Li Chu as a “natural born idol” is not an exaggeration. It takes talent to be in this line of work. Ji Mowei has tried it and has achieved some success, but now he has found what he really likes.
After listening to it, Lin Zhi felt that it made sense: "Yes."
He doesn't have as strong a desire to win as Ji Mowei, and he debuted on the fringe. He just feels very lucky and has no ulterior motives. His professional level is not low and he is very balanced. His fans also like his happy look.
He just felt that he was 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 in 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 pounce on him and then hug him with his arms and 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, 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 come here to sign Su Ning's contract, which Li Chu also knew.
Su Ning was the first 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, and 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 expired, but now he has changed his mind.
Lin Zhi obviously wants to join the group again, and he plans to be with Lin Zhi. After joining the group, he can release a solo song at any time.
But Li Chu is no longer as defensive as he was at the beginning when he only trusted 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 one 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. This time, Su Ning didn't need to form a group with many people. With Lin Zhi and Li Chu, just adding one more vocal position would be enough. 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 the memories of several years later, there were almost no idols in the circle 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 big gap, it will be more disharmonious, so this person 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 had almost no rest and were working non-stop every day. Now they can still do activities as individuals, which is already a rest for them. There is no need to seamlessly transition into a new group, as it is too tiring. It is better to take this time to calm down.
The three of them were sitting in the practice room discussing this matter. Snow was just piling up on the side of the road outside 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 handed them to the three people to eat.
"It's delicious," Lin Zhi opened it and took a bite, then asked, "Where did you buy it?"
Jixue said: "This is not bought from outside, it was given to me by Wen Zijing, ah, he is the male lead of my play."
"Home God" was just finished filming 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 a play directed by Su Ning, it is 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 serious 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 the snow, 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 Guangying Entertainment are broadcast.
Li Chu: "Ah..."
He recalled that when President Su first took over, there were not so many people in Guangying Entertainment. There were only him and 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.
