“Beep.”

Got money?

When Lu Yuan's phone rang with a text message alert, he took out his phone and took a look.

It’s the bank transfer information!

One million, after tax deduction, the net amount is 880,000!

Comfortable.

After seeing the newly added number on the card, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, the problem that had been bothering him for a long time was finally solved.

He was rich again!

He is very happy.

Wang Long had the money to release an album, the subsequent investment and publicity costs for filming "Wanderer", and the money for his parents to open a restaurant. After deducting all these money, he should actually have some left.

Well, probably...

etc!

wrong!

It seems like I have no money again?

Am I poor again?

Lu Yuan's happiness did not last long before it collapsed.

He began to become unhappy.

Although the company had money to spend on other projects, he became poor again.

It feels really bad to work so hard for so long and then see the money but not be able to use it immediately.

Yes, it's very bad.

…

On the plane, Lu Yuan handed the contract to Wu Tingting, then closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

"What, Mr. Lu, have you signed a contract with another director?"

"Yes, I do."

"Mr. Lu, this contract is very strange." After reading the contract, Wu Tingting suddenly looked at Lu Yuan in surprise.

"What's strange?" Lu Yuan was also puzzled when he opened his eyes.

"The terms of this contract are very generous and the degree of freedom is quite high. There are almost no breach of contract conditions. Well, to be honest, even if I go to negotiate in person, I may not be able to get such a contract. Is this really signed by Director Li Qi? I heard that Director Li Qi is a very shrewd person. Under normal circumstances, his contracts are very strict and the remuneration is very low. It is impossible for him to issue such a contract... It can be seen that Director Li Qi sincerely hopes that you can go... He values ​​you very much."

"Um?"

"But I think it's better for me to be present when you sign the contract next time. This time, Li Qi seems to be sincere enough to use this very loose contract, but other directors may not be so willing to do so next time... After all, we are a team now, and I am your agent, so I have the responsibility to be involved in these matters." Wu Tingting carefully put away the contract and looked at Lu Yuan.

She is very serious.

This is what she really thinks.

"Yeah, we are a team!"

When Lu Yuan heard the word "team", he seemed calm on the surface, but his heart suddenly tensed, as if an alarm bell suddenly rang in his mind.

This is a sense of vigilance that I have never felt before.

We are a team!

team!

team!

These two words kept shaking Lu Yuan's mind.

Lu Yuan thought of the trusting eyes of Fatty Wei, Li Qing, Qian Zhong, Wang Long and others.

Then he took a deep breath.

Wu Tingting's casual remark suddenly made Lu Yuan reflect.

What Wu Tingting said was not wrong.

In fact, some things are different.

I was alone before, and I only wanted to make some money and live a middle-class life, but now, whether I like it or not, I have a company team behind me.

You can be as muddle-headed as you want when you are alone, but you can’t be in a team anymore.

He closed his eyes.

So many people trust me, so many people have followed me...

Should I start to change myself?

At least we can't let them down too much...

At this moment he felt that he had an extra responsibility.

Yes, it is responsibility.

No matter what happens in the future, I will never trust others and abuse my sympathy as I did last night.

Li Qi was fine yesterday, but what if next time?

What if I get sold out next time?

Who is responsible for me?

"Mr. Lu, are you okay?"

"No problem, thank you."

"ah?"

"Just thank you."

"Forehead."

…

"The King of Masked Singer" finally came to a successful conclusion.

There may be some episodes in the middle, but the ending is always good.

After returning to the company, Lu Yuan did not slack off just because he won the championship. Instead, he put the trophy on his desk and continued to be as busy as ever.

He thought a lot on the plane.

He has to be responsible for these people, and regardless of whether he has the ability or not, he must do his best to be responsible for them.

At the same time, you must also be responsible for yourself.

He really worked very hard in the first two days!

He felt that he had so much to learn.

You may be able to get away with it for a while by plagiarizing, but the things in your brain will eventually run out.

What should I do after using it?

How can I survive?

This is a problem.

Although Lu Yuan didn't think he had any talent, at least he felt that working hard would always be a good thing!

In the past two days, in addition to filming and honing his acting skills during the day, Lu Yuan also spent some time practicing his voice and reading music and piano materials. In the evening, he read some management books.

The filming went very smoothly. After all, he had basically figured out the script, and he had great control over the character Wang Jiaming. Basically, the plot was progressing faster and faster every day. At the same time, Lu Yuan did discover that he had some talent in music. When reading piano books, Lu Yuan found that he could fully immerse himself in them. However, when Lu Yuan read management books, he got a headache.

I feel sleepy as soon as I read the book. It is more effective than sleeping pills.

Lu Yuan discovered that he had no talent for management at all. In particular, Lu Yuan found that he had no interest in some of the theories and plans in the book and could not understand them at all!

Of course, Lu Yuan did not give up. He tried to remind himself that his current identity was different. He was now the head of a team. A leader must understand some things, must work hard to improve, and must understand management knowledge!

"I can do it. I can do it. As long as I work hard, I can do it. Hard work is more important than talent!"

Every morning when he woke up and opened his eyes, Lu Yuan began to hypnotize himself very hard.

Isn’t it true that those inspirational quotes say that if you hypnotize yourself every day, you will truly begin to transform and become different!

Lu Yuan believed it firmly.

Fatty Wei suddenly found that he couldn't quite understand Lu Yuan.

He also felt that Lu Yuan was changing, but he couldn't understand how.

I always feel something weird.

In the past, Lu Yuan could still smoke a few cigarettes, but Fatty Wei discovered that since participating in "The King of Crossover Masked Singer", Lu Yuan didn't even smoke...

Have you really quit smoking?

With Lu Yuan's very hard and positive efforts, he finally tore the management books into pieces and threw them all into the trash can under the strange gaze of Fatty Wei on the third night. Then he took out a cigarette and took two puffs slowly, as if he was in a bad mood.

"Ayuan, what's wrong?"

"Well, it's nothing. I'm just not used to seeing the trash can empty. I think I need to put something in it..."

"????"

Is there any such reason?

What does this mean?

Although Fatty Wei didn't know what Lu Yuan meant, at this moment, he felt that the familiar Lu Yuan was back. Well, at least he didn't quit smoking.

"Forget it, I won't smoke anymore."

After taking two puffs of the cigarette, Lu Yuan frowned again, finally put out the cigarette butt, and even threw the whole pack of cigarettes into the trash can.

“…”

Fatty Wei looked down at the trash can, then looked again at Lu Yuan, who was lying on the bed reading a menu with a look of disgust on his face.

He suddenly felt dazed!

Is this true or false?

Did this guy really quit smoking?

Is this still a human being?

Is this still the chain-smoking Lu Yuan?

…

After the end of "The Masked Singer Crossover", Lu Yuan made headlines for two consecutive days, and then Lu Yuan's popularity gradually subsided.

October, November...

Lu Yuan, who had been bombarding the headlines for two consecutive months, suddenly became a little silent.

At first, reporters kept squatting on the set of "Wanderer", hoping to see Lu Yuan do something amazing or have any shocking performance that would make headlines. But after squatting for a long time, reporters found that apart from occasionally photographing Lu Yuan staying on the crew to film and returning to the company after filming, there was no other news worth breaking.

Although he didn't disappear, his sudden silence left the reporters confused.

They didn't know what Lu Yuan wanted to do.

But there's always something weird going on.

This situation lasted for more than ten days, and the reporters finally gave up after seeing that there was really no news about Lu Yuan.

Then they went to secretly take photos of other stars, and went to check out concerts. Everything seemed to have returned to the way it was before...

…

"There's no news about Lu Yuan recently?"

"Yes, there are, but it's not news. Basically, I'm just filming on the set."

"Don't you feel something is wrong?"

"No, what's wrong?"

"Don't you think everything is too quiet? I don't believe that someone who has been bombarding the headlines for two consecutive days suddenly disappeared... This is a very strange thing in itself. This is not normal."

"Boss Zheng, it's normal that he didn't make the headlines. After all, it's so hard to make the headlines... Besides, there are so many celebrities in the circle, and strange things happen every day. It's impossible for him to always make the headlines, right?"

"That's true, but I'm not used to it."

"Ah, Mr. Zheng, I think you are overthinking it."

"Are you overthinking it? No! I think this person must be planning something!"

“…”

Lu Yuan's sudden low profile made some senior executives of some entertainment companies feel a little strange.

They have become accustomed to Lu Yuan bombarding the headlines every day. They get up every day and habitually check what Lu Yuan is doing on the headlines. This has become a must-do for them in the past two months.

But……

Lu Yuan suddenly stopped making headlines.

Not only did it not make the headlines, but it became safe.

This operation may seem simple to others, but it is not simple in the eyes of some people.

Zheng Tianlong is such a person.

At the Joaquin headquarters, the assistant was at a loss after looking at Zheng Tianlong's back.

Zheng Tianlong stood with his hands behind his back, facing the glass in front of him, looking quite serious.

At this moment, the sunlight shone on him, stretching his shadow very long.

He could feel that Zheng Tianlong was thinking deeply and planning.

Maybe Mr. Zheng is right. Is this Lu Yuan really planning something big?

But, what is it?

…

"According to the schedule, Lu Manzi will come to our school to give a lecture, right?"

"Yes, he will be here in two days. I postponed all my appointments in order to listen to Lu Manzi's lecture."

"Me too. What I'm most looking forward to right now is seeing Lu Manzi in person. Hehe, I don't know why, but when I think of him I want to laugh. I feel inexplicably happy..."

"You said that Lu Yuan has suddenly disappeared from the entertainment industry recently. Could he be concentrating on writing a new piano piece?"

“It’s possible!”

"That's not right. Didn't he say that he had run out of ideas? That shouldn't be possible."

"Haha, do you believe what this big pig's hoof said?"

"Haha, I'm dying of laughter. You actually believe this kind of nonsense. You have an amazing brain!"

"sweat……"

“…”
