"Since it's something you've entrusted to me, I must get to the bottom of it."
"You trust me, and I can't let you down."
"I'm not disappointed, really. The information you provided was very timely and useful." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Next, I should push Xiao Ming a little further and ask him to use Madam Yu's connections. I want to see what this guy does when he's desperate."
"What about me?" Li Mengmeng asked, "Is there anything else I need to do?"
"No need, you just need to stay here and watch the show." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
Li Mengmeng nodded gently. Since that was the case, she no longer insisted.
The next day, in the office of an entertainment company.
Xiao Ming was dressed in formal attire, a custom-made suit that fit him perfectly.
Because of his relatively thin body, he gives people a sense of frailty.
It is precisely because of this sense of weakness that he has a great advantage in front of women.
Because his image can arouse women's desire to protect him, he can easily get along with directors and investors.
"Director Xu, President Li, thank you for your trust. I will definitely seize this opportunity and play this role well."
Xiao Ming's face was filled with smiles. His agent, Brother Chen, was busy running around, and the signing ceremony was proceeding in an orderly manner.
"Mingtian, you have good qualities," Director Xu said, "but your acting skills still need to be honed."
"The teachers you're competing against this time all have solid performance skills. Their experience is invaluable. You must seize this opportunity and learn from them."
"Director Xu, please rest assured. I will definitely do it." Xiao Ming nodded and shook hands with Director Li.
"Okay, no problem, let's sign the contract. This isn't the first time we've worked with your entertainment company, and we've had a pleasant cooperation."
Several people shook hands and went on stage to take photos. The media and paparazzi invited by the entertainment industry rushed forward.
Although Xiao Ming is just a minor character who is not very famous, the investors and director this time are big names.
So invite as many media as possible to create a lively scene.
Many people are also curious about Xiao Ming, who only appeared in everyone's sight half a year ago.
Although the singing relies entirely on lip syncing and the dancing moves are average.
But his resources are surprisingly good, and many people want to know what kind of capital is behind this guy.
However, just when the two parties were about to sign the contract, both the investor and the director received calls.
When they saw the caller ID, both parties looked startled. They didn't even bother to sign the contract and ran to the side to answer the phone.
The signing was a formal occasion and took place in front of so many media outlets.
Both of them ran to make a phone call, which made Xiao Ming a little dazed.
Some reporters were also whispering, and everyone understood that the person who called seemed to be from an important background.
Otherwise, these two wouldn't have left the signing ceremony at a critical moment and gone straight to make a phone call, right?
Soon, the two finished their call and returned at the same time.
The two of them looked at each other at the same time, their expressions a little strange.
"Director Xu, Mr. Li, shall we continue?" Brother Chen said with a smile.
"Old Chen, I'm so sorry. I just received a notice that I have an important meeting to attend. Let's talk about the signing another day." Director Xu made a perfunctory excuse.
"Yes, yes, my company also has urgent matters to deal with. Let's sign it another day." Another investor packed up his things, picked up his briefcase and left.
And he walked very quickly, as if he really had something urgent to do.
This scene made Xiao Ming dumbfounded. Brother Li quickly took a few steps and caught up with Director Xu in front.
"Director Xu, what's going on?"
"Old Chen, I really have something to do. It's not convenient for you today." Director Xu said perfunctorily.
"The ceremony has already started and the reporters are here. What's going on when you and Mr. Li leave?" Brother Chen was anxious.
"Old Chen, we are old friends." Director Xu stopped helplessly.
"So some things can't be said face to face. There is a reason why we won't sign the contract today. You should find the reason yourself."
Having said that, Director Xu stopped talking and walked out in a hurry.
Xiao Ming was completely dumbfounded. This time the investor and director were a done deal.
Moreover, this signing ceremony was held in a very grand manner, as if they were afraid that others would not know about it.
Now that the contract has not been signed, who knows what these reporters will write when they get out.
"Mingming, let's go." Brother Chen reacted and picked up Xiao Ming and left.
They had to leave here before these reporters could react.
If we wait until these people react, we won’t be able to leave.
Sure enough, before Xiao Ming had time to leave, this group of reporters surrounded him like crazy.
They pointed their guns and cameras at Xiao Ming and asked all kinds of tricky questions.
"Excuse me, did the contract signing for tomorrow fail? What's the reason?"
"I heard that Tomorrow's father is a criminal and his mother is mentally ill. Is this true?"
"Will he be violent tomorrow? Is he sane?"
"Why is the investor not cooperating with Mingtian this time?"
A group of security guards rushed up and protected Xiao Ming. It took a lot of effort to get Xiao Ming out of the room.
He got into his RV and the driver drove away.
Brother Chen kept making phone calls to report these things to the company. Because the incident happened suddenly, he didn't understand what was going on for a while.
Finally, Director Xu called and said, "Old Chen, it's not that I don't want to cooperate with you."
"Someone has said that if I cooperate with you, I will never get any resources in the industry again."
"I'm just a small director, and the other party is so powerful, so I can only apologize this time."
"Director Xu, we are so familiar with each other, just tell me directly who is targeting us. I will be very grateful." Lao Chen said.
He has been in this industry for more than ten years and has a pretty good network of contacts.
Moreover, there is a mysterious investor behind Xiao Ming. He wants to know who is so powerful that he can make the investor and the filming company run away with just one sentence?
"Nuanguang Entertainment." Director Xu said this carefully: "We're friends, so I'm telling you this."
"Please don't sell me out."
"I understand. Thank you, Director Xu." Old Chen suddenly realized.
After hanging up the phone, he sighed: "Tomorrow, this matter is troublesome."
"Brother Chen, who is targeting us?" Xiao Ming gritted his teeth.
"Nuanguang Entertainment, they're from Xiao Chen's side." Old Chen sighed, "The capital behind Nuanguang Entertainment is too powerful."
"The Wen family, and Xiao Chen himself is not easy to mess with, so we can only avoid this matter for the time being."
"But it doesn't matter. We'll find another opportunity later. Don't take it to heart."
"Xiao Chen..." Xiao Ming clenched his fists tightly, and his face twisted.
There was a parrot in the cage of the RV. He grabbed the parrot and took out a knife.
