Chapter 85: Writing the Plot Myself
Tu Yao: "Huh?"
Cheng Sangsang wiped her eyes and snorted, "What 'huh'? I'm asking you!"
"Is it okay or not?!"
When Cheng Sangsang turned twenty, she had a large group of followers around her, but they all came to her of their own volition.
She was well aware that these people were outwardly friendly to her, but privately they mocked her as a nouveau riche.
Even with Bai Chumeng, looking back, it was only through her initiative in approaching and making sacrifices that their "friendship" was maintained.
It seems she has never experienced the process of making a friend or the joy of making one.
I've never bickered and argued like I have with Tu Yao, but when we're in danger, we work together to get out of trouble, give each other gifts, and take care of each other's feelings.
In just a few days, she experienced all kinds of joys and sorrows, more than she had in the previous twenty years.
Let her naturally feel from the bottom of her heart that she must become friends with her.
Tu Yao suddenly turned to look at Xu Chi, her eyes bright with excitement and pride.
Koike, the female lead has taken the initiative to become friends with the cannon fodder!
A smile played on Xu Chi's lips... but in his eyes, it was still uncertain who the female lead was.
"I'm talking to you, why are you looking at him!"
Cheng Sangsang reached out and turned her head around, glaring at her awkwardly: "Hey, is it okay or not! Being friends with me is great!"
"I'm very rich, I..."
Halfway through her sentence, Cheng Sangsang quickly corrected herself: "That's not what I meant. I meant that I'm a pretty good person, and I have some money, oh no..."
She's been a nouveau riche for so many years, and she's used to talking about money all the time. She just can't seem to change it all of a sudden.
Cheng Sangsang immediately looked annoyed and was about to repeat herself when she saw Tu Yao grin and nod heavily.
He said, "Okay!"
Cheng Sangsang was stunned: "You...you agreed?!"
Tu Yao was still smiling.
Cheng Sangsang was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
Xu Bai quickly squeezed in: "I want one too!"
Cheng Sangsang: ...
"What do you want!"
...
The next morning, Chen Meiling was using Tu Chaoxi's case to train the trainees whose contracts were about to expire.
"See? This is what happens when you don't follow the company's orders. Even if you get your contract terminated, a lawsuit can ruin you!"
Halfway through the training, her phone suddenly rang. Chen Meiling answered it without hesitation and continued the training:
“You people should stop being so ambitious. Just sign the contract renewal honestly. If you stay here, at least you'll have food to eat. If you leave here, you're nothing.”
"What's the value of a dream? How many people have actually realized their dreams? Even Tu Chaoxi is no exception!"
"I'm telling you the truth, Tu Chaoxi's life is over! He'll never be able to sing again!"
After all, the pressure came from the investors, who seemed intent on bankrupting him.
The investor's manager specifically requested Tu Chaoxi for the role and offered her an exorbitant fee, so she directly signed the contract on Tu Chaoxi's behalf.
Regardless of how it was signed, it has now become a powerful tool to control him!
The trainees listened, their faces ashen.
They were all long-term contract holders, and were preparing to leave when their contracts expired. However, the recent news of Tu Chaoxi being sued has dealt them a heavy blow, and they are afraid of suffering the same fate.
Just then, a female voice suddenly came from Chen Meiling's phone: "Who said Tu Chaoxi is finished? Get ready to withdraw the lawsuit."
“I have already dismissed the manager who contacted you. The new manager will prepare a new songwriting contract for Teacher Tu. Since Teacher Tu intends to terminate the contract with your company, the new contract will not go through your hands.”
The trainees were taken aback and immediately looked up.
Chen Meiling: ? ? ?
She quickly asked, "Who are you?"
"The boss of Youmu!"
The next second, a clear voice came from the other end: "Hey, can you hear me?"
"Don't listen to her, she's just trying to scare you. Dreams are valuable. Tu Chaoxi made it, so can you. If you don't, it's okay. A dream is only a dream if you give it up yourself. What others say doesn't count. Treat Chen Meiling's words as nonsense!"
"that is!"
After they finished speaking, they hung up with a "click".
Chen Meiling's face had turned ashen.
Looking down, the trainees exchanged glances, a flicker of excitement suddenly igniting in their eyes.
Cheng Sangsang had just hung up the phone when it rang again.
It's Bai Chumeng.
When she didn't answer, he sent her a message questioning him.
—Sang Sang, why did you fire the manager?
Cheng Sangsang didn't reply and turned off her phone.
She's not good at managing a company, but she's not stupid either.
It was supposed to be the company's most important project, but they assigned a script that was so bad it was practically worthless, and they even tied up all the funds in the company's accounts.
This is neither in line with the vision of a professional manager nor does it exceed the courage of a manager.
Unless someone is directing them from behind.
She refused to admit it in front of Tu Chaoxi and Tu Yao, but that didn't mean she still trusted Bai Chumeng as before.
She didn't know why Bai Chumeng did this, but she didn't want to be a tool for Bai Chumeng to achieve her goals anymore.
At the same time, the online sentiment suddenly shifted, and Cheng Sangsang directly acknowledged her identity as an investor and issued an announcement.
[What?! I woke up to a completely different world. Teacher Tu doesn't have to act in that lousy drama anymore; he's started writing songs now?]
[The investor is Cheng Sangsang? What an incredibly absurd coincidence! The manager was fired? So it was all a scheme orchestrated by the manager and the agency? Deliberately setting a trap for Tu Chaoxi?!]
No wonder the curly-haired guy ran away in fear yesterday; he probably scared himself to death when he found out about the idiot investors.
[They changed the male character to a female character? That's interesting.]
I checked, the original plot was two men and one woman, now it's two women and one man. Is it just another cliché drama with a different name but the same old formula?
I'll go ask in the live stream.
The director announced there are no assignments today, so everyone can do their own thing.
Cheng Sangsang finished building the wall yesterday and is rebuilding the mushroom house under Xu Bai's guidance.
Tu Yao and Wen Yu cleaned the doghouse for Langya, Jiang Ye and Tu Chaoxi chatted about music, and Teacher Ma tapped on the screen to review his interview clips about the orphanage incident.
The atmosphere was unusually peaceful.
Until a bunch of netizens flooded into the live stream.
Cheng Sangsang exploded!
"Who said it's just another melodramatic school drama with the same old formula?!"
Xu Bai was startled and leaned over to take a peek: "Is that a pure campus romance drama? There has to be a love story, right?"
"I refuse!"
Cheng Sangsang suddenly got excited, put the cement bucket on the ground, found a piece of paper and wrote as she spoke: "Look, Teacher Tu's original role was a sunny boy, but I'm changing it to a cheerful girl now."
"Just like the original plot, the girl is a transfer student, and the entire school is a huge cyclical energy field. Next, she will come into contact with countless key plot points, causing cycle after cycle, and she will return to the day she transferred schools time and time again."
"The other two main characters are... well, still a school bully, but he's pretending to be one because the plot forces him to do so. And the other one, let me think..."
After her wildly imaginative remarks, everyone present was stunned and stared at her in disbelief.
Cheng Sangsang asked in confusion, "Why aren't you saying anything..."
Tu Yao shook the water off her hands and suddenly asked, "Have you ever thought about not hiring screenwriters anymore?"
Cheng Sangsang was taken aback: "Huh? What about the script then?"
Tu Yao pushed the paper filled with the plot in front of her: "Write it yourself."
Cheng Sangsang was completely stunned: "Me?"
