Chapter 10
The picture shows a tall man sitting in a bar booth. His face cannot be seen, only his thick hair and the heavy suit on his body cannot hide his tight muscle lines.
I have to say that his body is really well-trained, and it feels like he is comparable to Xing Zhao.
The people sitting next to him all looked like service staff, both men and women, all surrounding the man and looking very intimate.
It's just a photo, no video or audio. Although it's not a heavy hammer, it's enough to stir up a storm of public opinion.
It was last night.
Last night, at Xu Zhou’s birthday party, the president of ARKI invited more than a dozen men and women to the club to play with him.
Rich people play with money, but Wei Ge doesn't care much about it and has no interest in these gossips. At most, he thinks that this president is an average person.
But I hope he can handle things impartially during the game.
It doesn’t matter whether he wins the award or not. The winner must be a capable person.
Don't really get a vase that can't do anything but looks good and get the position of this year's original artist. That would really block the future of the entire industry.
Wei Ge ignored the news, turned his phone upside down and fell asleep.
Xing Zhao over there couldn't sleep. He was woken up by Shen Che's call. Usually, Shen Che handled things by himself, but this matter was of great importance.
Although Luzhou Entertainment is a well-known company, it can even be said that it is unmatched in the entire Lushui.
But Luda Academy of Fine Arts must be above it.
There are still huge differences between business and academia. Xing Zhao has put in a lot of effort to ensure that Luzhou Entertainment can now cooperate with Luzhou University Academy of Fine Arts in this public welfare way.
Not only are the students at LuDa Academy of Fine Arts good at learning and innovative, the resources of the professors and leaders at LuDa Academy of Fine Arts are also among the best.
When doing business with others, one must not narrow one's own path. Simply becoming the largest live broadcast group and animation entertainment company is not Xing Zhao's ultimate goal.
Compared to the money, Xing Zhao cares more about resources and reputation.
There is absolutely no room for negative news.
Shen Che knew how important this matter was to Xing Zhao, so he had to inform Xing Zhao and couldn't act rashly and mess things up.
"Try to suppress the news as much as possible and don't let its influence expand. I have a solution." Xing Zhao spoke in a flat tone.
Shen Che originally thought that Xing Zhao’s reaction would be huge, but it seems that Xing Zhao still has some response to this matter.
"Okay, then feel free to contact me if you need anything." Shen Che didn't say much, but just hung up the phone after saying that.
As soon as I hung up the phone here, the other phone rang.
"Oh my god, Old Xing, are you screwed? What were you doing last night? There's no way that the picture is really you." Without looking at the name, you can tell from the voice and tone that it's Ji Zeyu, that kid who always makes a fuss when something happens.
"No, I was attending a party with my kids last night. This is all a small matter." Xing Zhao said in a light tone, as if everything was under his control.
"Oh, you went to a party with your kid. No wonder you refused when I asked you out. Do you want me to pay to remove the hot search for you? I have a friend who can do this." Ji Zeyu spoke from the other side.
"What do I do? Do I need you to help me remove the trending search?" Although Xing Zhao's words seemed a bit harsh, his tone became much gentler, and even a little helpless.
He, Xing Zhao, has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and a trending search won’t hurt him at all, “I’ll let Shen Che do it.”
"That kid." Ji Zeyu hesitated, "Old Xing, you'd better be careful when you're with him. I don't like him."
"Still not happy?" Xing Zhao asked back.
The reason why "still" was used is because Ji Zeyu had said this to Xing Zhao more than once.
The relationship between these three people is a bit complicated. Ji Zeyu and Xing Zhao are brothers who grew up together wearing open-crotch pants. They come from similar families and have similar living standards.
The two of them are real childhood friends, and their food, clothing and other expenses are almost the same.
Although their personalities have become more and more different as they grow older, they are truly brothers who grew up together.
Shen Che is different. Shen Che is the son of Xing Zhao's aunt. His mother's name is Shen Fang. Shen Che said that he took his mother's surname.
Shen Fang came to the Xing family as a nanny when she was 18 years old. She and Xing Zhao's mother were like sisters. Later, Shen Fang went back to her hometown for a while because of something.
When he came back, Xing Zhao was already five or six years old, and he and Ji Zeyu had been "good brothers" for four or five years.
Shen Fang did not come back alone, she also brought back a boy who was about the same age as Xing Zhao. That boy was Shen Che.
Xing Zhao calls Shen Fang Auntie Fang. In the Xing family, Shen Fang is no longer just a nanny or aunt, but an important family member.
Shen Che naturally became Xing Zhao's friend. Ji Zeyu was in crisis from that moment on.
He felt that Shen Che appeared cowardly but was actually very scheming. He always felt that he approached Xing Zhao for the Xing family's money.
Xing Zhao seems to be indifferent to everything and cold to everyone, but Ji Zeyu knows that he is very warm-hearted.
He treated Shen Che as a brother, but Ji Zeyu felt that Shen Che's heart was hard to understand and hard to warm.
From the very beginning, when Xing Zhao wanted Shen Che to be his assistant, Ji Zeyu tried to stop him, but Xing Zhao didn't listen.
His exact words were: "You can't defend yourself against people who want to harm you. There's no need to lose a friend and talent over something that didn't happen."
Xing Zhao felt that Shen Che was a talented person, but although he looked like a dull person, he actually handled all of Xing Zhao's affairs in an orderly manner.
"Do me a favor. There should be a video of me at the entrance of the store where I went to the party yesterday. Find it and spread it." Xing Zhao started, then suddenly thought of something. "You don't have to publish the video. Just show my photo to the owner and ask him to testify for me."
He didn't want to make his appearance and private itinerary public, as countless eyes would be staring at him in the future.
More importantly, he didn't want Wei Ge to know his true identity for the time being.
I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that the child will know that he is too capable and develop the bad habit of using backdoors.

Wei Ge saw the news of the clarification by the president of ARKI during class. This was not something he saw while distracted by short videos during class, but was promoted by the three men sitting next to him.
That’s right, these three people are his good roommates and also his good seniors.
Xu Zhou sat on Wei Ge's left, Li Cheng sat on Wei Ge's right, and Zhang Zhilin was there too, but he was sitting in the corner of the classroom, not in the same row with the other three people. He was conscientiously doing English exercises with his head down.
"Why are you here?" Wei Ge looked around, then looked at the old professor in front of him who was lecturing on political economy, and lowered his voice.
"We care about our junior fellow student and are here to accompany you to class." Xu Zhou raised his chin towards Wei Ge, who smiled politely and nodded to show his belief.
Yes, but not necessary.
No matter how much you care about your junior students, there is no need to care to this extent. The old professor's voice in class is like hypnosis, and people in the three rows at the back have started snoring.
Spend time suffering, don't love them too much, they are just ordinary roommates, right?
Li Cheng was honest, patting Wei Ge on the shoulder. "Don't listen to him flattering himself. Xu Zhou and I failed our course, so we're here to make up for it."
Failed the exam, these two brothers' academic performance was indeed average, but Zhang Zhilin...
Wei Ge turned to look at Zhang Zhilin who was lowering his head in the corner, looking like he didn't want to be forced.
"Why is Brother Dalin here too? Did he fail the exam too?" Zhang Zhilin doesn't look like the kind of person who would fail an exam.
"He didn't. There was no seat left in the library, so we asked him to come with us." Li Cheng threw a coquettish glance at Zhang Zhilin, and Zhang Zhilin lowered his head even more.
"Why doesn't he sit with us?" Wei Ge asked knowingly, because he didn't really want to sit with these two people at the moment.
"Da Linzi is the squad leader. The old man in front knows him. He's afraid of being recognized and embarrassed." Li Cheng said, patting his chest. "I'm not afraid of being recognized. I'm willing to die for my brothers. It's my honor to fail the exam with them."
"Li Cheng!" A voice came from the other end of the podium. The old professor walked down from the podium at some point and moved closer to the group of people.
He must be a student I have taught. The fact that he can clearly call out Li Cheng's name in such a large class shows that Li Cheng is extraordinary.
It's unusual and worrying.
"Teacher Zhang." Li Cheng smiled at the old professor, and his nonchalant look a little more restrained. "Long time no see."
"Long time no see? I didn't want to see you at all." The old professor laughed angrily and knocked on the empty table in front of Li Cheng with a book. "You don't bring a book to class. I say a sentence and you reply below. Or you can go up and explain it to everyone. You have experience anyway."
I do have experience, I listened to the same lesson for the second time.
But this knowledge seems to be out of control and won't enter my brain. Even after listening to it a hundred times, it just hangs outside my ears.
For the entire semester, Li Cheng's only impression of political economics was watching a movie in the period before the end of the course. He couldn't even remember what the movie was about, but it was quite popular anyway.
He remembered that he bought a pancake that day, added two eggs, more sauce, and sprinkled some chopped green onions.
I don’t remember whether the movie was good or not, I don’t remember what I learned, and the pancake was a bit salty.
He remembers it clearly.
Li Cheng thought he had a good brain, so he could remember everything that happened before.
But he couldn't talk to the teacher like that, because the teacher could just cross it out and have the lesson taught again next semester.
"I can't find the book I read last semester, but my junior and I are reading a book together." Li Cheng grinned at the old professor with a shameless look on his face. "Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely pass this year."
Li Cheng has made up his mind and decided to let Wei Ge pass him the answers for this year's final exam. This kid seems easy to talk to and his academic performance is not bad either.
"You read my book, and my junior and I will read one." Xu Zhou did not give Li Cheng and Wei Ge a chance to read a book. He reached out and took his own book and handed it to Li Cheng, and pulled the other half of the book that Wei Ge had intended to share with Li Cheng in front of himself.
"Xu Zhou? Are you well?" The old professor looked up at Xu Zhou, his tone not as angry as when he spoke to Li Cheng.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble." Xu Zhou smiled at the professor. It was true that both of them failed the exam, but Li Cheng failed all the exams, while Xu Zhou had appendicitis on the day of the exam and went to the hospital for surgery.
The results are the same, but the nature is different, as can be seen from the professor's different attitudes towards the two people.
Watching the professor walk away while lecturing with a book in hand, Li Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and picked up his phone, and suddenly raised his hand to confront the two people around him: "Oh my god, the president of ARKI was in the same store with us last night.
