4:30 in the afternoon.
Qiu Xing walked out of the office and found that Jie Yang had not left yet and was taking a nap on the sofa in the living room. He stopped and walked over lightly.
Xie Yang immediately opened his eyes, turned his head to look in Qiu Xing's direction, and quickly regained his composure. He sat up and asked, "Are you done? Are you hungry? I see you didn't eat much at noon."
“…”
Qiu Xing stopped where he was and asked, "You stayed here to sleep just to ask me this?"
"I was worried you'd be hungry." Xie Yang stood up and rubbed his neck. He walked to the table and picked up a thermos bucket. He unscrewed the bucket and poured out a bowl of Tremella soup. He put the spoon in place and turned back to Qiu Xing and said, "Come and eat something. I asked the nanny to cook it and send it over."
Qiu Xing didn't move, his face expressionless, and he looked at Jie Yang with a strange look.
Xie Yang raised his eyebrows: "Are you touched?"
Qiu Xing came back to his senses, his expression turned cold in an instant, and he said, "Stop imagining nonsense." He walked over and sat down at the table, picked up a spoon to stir the Tremella soup, then looked at Jie Yang and asked, "You don't want to eat?"
"No, I ate too much for lunch. I'm not hungry."
Qiu Xing slowly finished a bowl of Tremella soup and said, "Find out who is trying to trick you this time. You just achieved some results and then something went wrong. If it happens again, I don't know if your small company can survive. Your crisis response is too slow. How on earth is Liu Sha leading your team?"
Xie Yang explained: "It has nothing to do with Liu Zhu."
"There must be something wrong. The most taboo thing for a management company is hesitation and emotionality. It's best to deal with the inappropriate areas as soon as possible."
Xie Yang paused and said, "I understand. I'm ready to deal with it."
Qiu Xing realized that Yang had already made a plan and said no more.
It was almost time to get off work, so Xie Yang simply did not go back to Yangxing. He planned to stay in Rongding and wait for Qiuxing to get off work, and then go home together.
Qiu Xing looked at Li Yang with a strange look for a few seconds, then stood up and said, "Whatever you want."
With the host's permission, Xie Yang lay down on the sofa in the living room again with peace of mind. Thinking of Qiu Xing's words, he took out his phone and sent a text message to Liu Sha: "Find a headhunting company to help me find an agent. It must be steady, reliable and thoughtful. It doesn't matter whether I have resources or not. I can earn resources myself. Next time the company recruits new members, also ask the HR department to post a notice for recruiting agents to prepare for the expansion of artists in the future."
Liu Sha responded quickly.
Xie Yang clicked on the phone case and sent a WeChat message to Hu Biao, asking him to talk to him tomorrow.
Hu Biao also responded quickly.
Before leaving get off work, He Jun went into Qiu Xing's office and came out and told Li Yang a name.
Xie Yang asked, "Are you sure he bribed my roommate and the marketing account?"
He Jun nodded: "Sure, the news was dug out from the marketing account, guaranteed to be accurate. The boss said how to deal with this person, you decide for yourself."
Xie Yang nodded to show that he understood.
On the way back, Qiu Xing suddenly asked, "Don't you need my help?"
Xie Yang shook his head: "No need, your resources should not be wasted on such a small person."
Qiu Xing snorted and said nothing more.
…
After dinner, Xie Yang returned to his room, took out his computer and searched for the name that He Jun had given him.
Xue Xian, a 25-year-old male singer-songwriter who can play multiple musical instruments, debuted through a talent show two years ago and released an album with good performance. He is affiliated with Yuexiang Entertainment. Recently, there were rumors of contract disputes with the company. He is very popular and is hailed as a leader of the new generation of singers in the industry.
This person is totally unknown to me and is not mentioned in the original book. He should be just an insignificant passerby. But why did this passerby suddenly reveal information about him and Mu Zhouyi?
The phone suddenly vibrated and a new WeChat message came in.
Xie Yang picked up the phone and found that the message was from Ji Zehui, with only an ellipsis in the content. He typed: Just say what you want to say.
Ji Zehui replied immediately: I know who leaked the information about you and Mu Zhouyi.
Xie Yang raised his eyebrows and typed: I know that too.
After a long silence.
Ji Zehui: What is your background? I heard that not long after your live broadcast ended, a group of lawyers rushed to the headquarters of those marketing accounts, scaring those marketing companies into thinking they were in big trouble. But it seems that they are in big trouble. People in the industry are saying that they are being targeted by big shots, and they will probably be skinned alive this time.
Xie Yang: What exactly do you want to say?
There was another long silence, and Ji Zehui sent a message with obvious tentative words: Last time I was with you, I lost two endorsements, and I haven’t negotiated them back yet. That couldn’t be you…
Xie Yang was surprised and asked: What endorsement?
Ji Zehui replied with the names of two brands.
Xie Yang searched and found that they were all products of Rongding.
“…”
He smiled and replied: It wasn't me, but my family did it. I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told me. I will go and thank him later.
Ji Zehui: ...
Ji Zehui typed for a long time, and then sent a long message: The person who cheated you was Xue Xian, and the surveillance was provided to him by Yuan Pang. Yuan Pang planned to help Xue Xian get signed to Huangtian, and Xue Xian would write songs in return. This time Xue Xian has taken a fancy to an opportunity to compose and sing an interlude for a movie, but the film's director Xu Heng seems to like you more. The film's heroine is Mu Zhouyi, and Mu Zhouyi's fans are famous for being united and fierce. Xue Xian originally wanted to sow discord between you and Mu Zhouyi's fans, use Mu Zhouyi's fans to boycott you, and make Xu Heng give up his plan to work with you.
Mu Zhouyi's movie? As far as he knows, Mu Zhouyi seems to be filming only one movie at the moment, which is "Crazy Musician" in which he collaborates with the best supporting actor.
Xie Yang was thinking in his mind and typing non-stop: Your Emperor is really interesting, specializing in collecting garbage.
Ji Zehui: ...Can you please speak properly!
Xie Yang: Yes. What do you want to change by telling me this?
Ji Zehui immediately replied with a handshake emoticon as a subtle gesture of goodwill.
…
The next day, Xie Yang got up early and, under the guidance of Master Liao, used a mold to fry a perfect round egg for Qiu Xing.
Qiu Xing looked at the egg in front of him, then at Jie Yang across from him. The corners of his mouth curled up for a second, then quickly straightened. After taking a sip of water, he asked coldly, "What do you want to ask me for again?"
"No." Xie Yang smiled at Qiu Xing, "This egg is to thank you for your selfless help."
Qiu Xing picked up the fork and touched the yolk of the egg, wanting to cut it. As soon as the tip of the knife touched it, he moved away and switched to chopsticks. He said, "I sent a team of lawyers to help you with the aftermath. Is your gratitude worth an egg?"
Xie Yang felt that this deal was indeed not worth it, so he asked, "How about I fry another one for you?"
“…”
Qiu Xing responded to Li Yang's perfunctory sincerity with a frozen gaze. He touched the egg with his chopsticks, then moved them away and replaced them with a knife and fork. He carefully separated the egg. Seeing that the yolk did not flow out, he was satisfied. He picked up a piece and fed it into his mouth. After swallowing it, he replied, "Eat your breakfast, and hurry up with school. Don't study for four years and end up not even getting a diploma."
Xie Yang pretended not to notice Qiu Xing's good mood, responded obediently, and passed another three-fresh dumpling to Qiu Xing.
…
After breakfast, Xie Yang came to the company, called Hu Biao to his office, and asked, "Among the recent jobs assigned to me, is there any work related to the composition and singing of movie interludes?"
Hu Biao was extremely surprised. He took out his phone and looked through the memo. He said, "Have you finally figured out the job? There are three movie interlude jobs that have been handed to you recently. One is the ending song invitation for a low-budget youth drama. The director is a new graduate. I don't recommend you to take this one. The other is the interlude creation for the Lunar New Year comedy "Crazy Musician" that director Xu Heng is currently filming. The requirements are very complex and detailed, and the difficulty is relatively high. I was very optimistic about this job, but now there is a scandal between you and Mu Zhouyi, and Mu Zhouyi is the heroine of this movie, so I-"
"I'll take it."
"——I don't think it's quite...what?"
Xie Yang said: "I said I want to take this job, please help me make the contact."
Hu Biao was no longer surprised and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to take this job? This opportunity seemed good before, but after the scandal between you and Mu Zhouyi, I think it's not appropriate for you to take this job."
Xie Yang briefly recounted Xue Xian's story and said, "He cheated me for resources, so if I don't fight him for them, wouldn't it be a shame for his efforts?"
“…”
Hu Biao had nothing to say. He tried to persuade him a few times but failed. He just resigned himself to his fate and went to contact him.
Xu Heng responded quickly. Hu Biao talked to the other party on behalf of Xie Yang. After the discussion, he went to the office and said to Xie Yang: "Director Xu Heng would like to invite you to the crew to discuss the details of the cooperation with you in person."
The request to go to the crew was exactly what Jie Yang wanted. He nodded and agreed, and asked Hu Biao to tell the other party that he would go to the crew as soon as possible.
After talking about work, Xie Yang motioned for Hu Biao to sit down and asked, "Brother Biao, do you want to try to change positions?"
Hu Biao was stunned for a moment, then realized something and sat up straight unconsciously. His tone became tense and he asked, "Why do you ask? Is it because of what I did yesterday-"
"No, don't be nervous, Brother Biao." Xie Yang interrupted Hu Biao, stood up and poured him a glass of water, and explained, "In fact, I have long wanted to persuade you to change your position. Entertainment companies rely on artists to make money. Currently, there are only three artists in Yangxing who make money, including me. It's too few. I plan to recruit a group of new people into the company. You have a good eye for selecting people, and you treat your artists well. You are very suitable to be the person in charge of the artist training department."
Hu Biao frowned and said, "But if I completely retreat behind the scenes, what will happen to you, Tong Jian, and Ke Lan?"
"If you agree to change positions, I will find a suitable agent for them. Of course, I respect your ideas. If you hope to continue to cooperate, you will still be the agent of Tong Jian and Ke Lan, but I will not let you lead them anymore. It is too much for you to lead three people by yourself."
Hu Biao was silent.
Xie Yang was afraid that Hu Biao would think too much, so he added: "If you are sure to change your job, I will give you a share of the Yang Bank shares and guarantee that your income after the change will not be lower than when you were a broker."
"It's not a matter of income, it's just..." Hu Biao clenched his palms and looked at Jie Yang, "Let me think about it, okay?"
Xie Yang stood up and patted Hu Biao on the shoulder, saying, "Of course. Brother Biao, Yangxing was built by me, Ke Lan, Tong Jian, and you. No matter how we develop in the future, you are our most important support. I will stay in the crew for a few days this time, so don't go with me. Think about it slowly."
