As Lin Zhiluo was looking at today's earnings and pondering this, someone contacted her.
"Hello Master Lin, I am an agent from Fanxing Entertainment. My name is Ji Yuanzhou. I found your live stream very interesting. I wonder if you would be interested in becoming an artist in our company?"
"Please don't hang up on me yet," Ji Yuanzhou said quickly, afraid that Lin Zhiluo would think he was a scammer and hang up on him.
“I can show you our company’s credentials. If you sign a contract with us, the platform won’t split the profits 50/50; I can help you negotiate a 90/10 split.”
Lin Zhiluo was tempted. Today she earned 350,000 yuan, but if she didn't sign the contract, the platform would take away more than 175,000 yuan.
Lin Zhiluo asked, "I've signed a contract with your company, what am I supposed to do?"
"You just need to do your live stream at your own pace. The company will give you popularity, but the company will take 10% of the money you receive during the activities arranged by the company."
Ji Yuan felt a pang of pain in his heart as he said this. When did their company ever have such good conditions? Even the best actors and actresses get 40% of the profits.
Because their company has connections, resources, and opportunities. Not only are their film and television productions excellent, but artists under Star Entertainment don't have to deal with the shady dealings of the entertainment industry.
But the boss offered her too good a deal; it seemed more like he wanted her to pay a small amount of protection money, and then the huge Qi Group would become her backer.
"Let me think about it. Could you please give me your photo?" Lin Zhilu said, still wanting to see the face of that Ji Yuan Zhou before speaking.
Ji Yuanzhou and Cen Zheng were having a video call. When Cen Qi heard Lin Zhiluo say this, he nodded to her.
Ji Yuan Zhou tidied his hair and took a slightly flashy photo to send to Lin Zhiluo.
Lin Zhiluo looked at Ji Yuanzhou's photo: He had a round nose, was serious and responsible in his work, and was down-to-earth.
Looking into his eyes, although there were bloodshot streaks in the whites of his eyes from staying up all night, his eyes were clear and resilient.
Overall, he passed the test here.
“Mr. Zhou, I have a few more questions,” Lin Zhiluo said. “I’m still a student. What should I do if your company’s schedule clashes with my studies?”
"Our company will coordinate, and if there are no scheduled activities, we will arrange for a teacher to give you extra lessons."
Ji Yuanzhou looked at the message Cen Qi had sent her and simply read it aloud.
Ji Yuanzhou never expected the company to retreat to this extent.
"Then I have no further questions."
Ji Yuanzhou was surprised that she agreed so readily. He asked cautiously, "Didn't you say you wanted to think about it?"
“I’ve thought it over. Judging from your appearance, you seem like a good person, and I can trust you. I’ve also investigated Starry Sky Entertainment. Your company is very large and has many award-winning actors and actresses.”
"You investigated?" She actually investigated, and so quickly?
“Yes, your company is easy to find online.” Lin Zhiluo had already learned to search for anything she didn’t know.
Ji Yuan Zhou & Cen Qi: Okay, let's call this an investigation.
Ji Yuanzhou said, "If Master Lin is free tomorrow, I will take you to the company so that we can finalize the details and then sign the contract."
"Okay." Lin Zhiluo has nothing planned for tomorrow.
"To show our sincerity, we have already discussed this with you. Once you officially become an artist in our company, this money will be deposited into your account."
I guess I should be considered an entertainer.
"Thank you for your help." Lin Zhiluo didn't expect that signing with the company would bring such a good thing.
After agreeing on a time to meet the next day, the two hung up the phone.
Ji Yuanzhou exclaimed, "I've worked at Fanxing Entertainment for five or six years, and this is the first time I've seen a contract offered for free like this."
"Master Lin, please handle whatever matters you have as soon as possible." Cen Qi could only instruct Ji Yuanzhou not to neglect Master Lin, as their boss would be the first to punish him if he found out.
"I know, they've already offered a contract like this. If I were to offend that ancestor again, I'd be out of my mind." Ji Yuanzhou isn't stupid.
Lin Zhilu ate out for her first meal at her new home.
This place is close to the university town, and after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, shops around here gradually reopened.
Looking at the bustling street, Lin Zhiluo thought to herself that she had definitely made the right choice in coming to this place.
She went into a crowded shop, waited in line for half an hour, and ordered three dishes and a bowl of rice.
She sat in the corner unnoticed, completely unaware that several pairs of eyes were watching her from outside.
"Brother Leopard, that woman is eating right now. It looks like her coming out at any time is unpredictable, so it's not convenient for us to make a move during the day."
"Understood. Each person will receive a reward of 100,000 yuan if they do a good job this time."
The man who reported to Li Bao felt a surge of excitement upon hearing that each person could earn 100,000 yuan. He thought it was better to follow Brother Bao; as long as he could scare a young girl and stage a heroic rescue, he could get 100,000 yuan. He hoped that such a good thing would happen every day.
After Li Kangning found out where Lin Zhilu lived, he immediately asked his secretary to rent an apartment across the street from hers, or even buy it if necessary.
Li Kangning's secretary felt some sympathy for the girl he was targeting, but she was also doing her job for money.
In the end, she could only tell Li Kangning that only one household on the two floors above Lin Zhiluo was willing to move out.
Li Kangning felt that if Lin Zhiluo stayed with him, she would move out of this place in the future. He didn't think much of the neighborhood that Lin Zhiluo thought was nice.
If Lin Zhiluo were a sensible person, he could have easily gifted her a villa in Beijing.
Li Kangning's secretary immediately sent a housekeeper to clean up, and Leopard Brother's men followed Lin Zhiluo. Li Kangning told them that now was not the best time.
He will tell them the specifics of their work schedule once it's arranged.
Lin Zhiluo, enjoying her meal, was unaware that many people were thinking of her.
After dinner, she strolled around the nearby bustling area. Lin Zhiluo always went wherever it was lively, and even when she went home, she took the road with the most security cameras, showing that she was very vigilant.
However, as I was going up the stairs, I saw several people from housekeeping companies walking up.
She didn't understand why anyone would need to clean so late at night.
After returning home, she started going to bed early and waking up early for the sake of her health; nothing could stop her from doing so.
Lin Zhilu went home, washed up, and went to sleep, completely unaware that many people were losing sleep because of her.
Brother Leopard sent six people to follow Lin Zhiluo, and Qi Zhiyang sent several professionals to follow behind Brother Leopard's men. They were to call the police as soon as they made any moves.
Ji Yuanzhou was on vacation when he was suddenly asked to return to the company by an artist and prepare the contract.
His return to the company was so sudden that Ji Yuanzhou didn't hide his purpose.
Several artists in the company have been wanting him to be their manager, and a popular movie star also wants him to join them. Ji Yuanzhou only chooses artists based on first impressions, so he hasn't made a decision yet.
After Ji Yuanzhou left Fanxing Entertainment, about 80% of people knew that the company's top agent had signed a small internet celebrity who was doing metaphysical live streaming.
