Be reborn and be happy to the fullest
Chapter 346: Girls Fighting for Carrots (1)
At 6 o'clock the next morning, Li Shuo got up on time at the alarm and went for a morning run. He first ran two laps around the new dormitory area, and then thought it was too small, so he simply ran out of the school from the north gate and ran a long lap around the Drama Academy.
If we say that Li Shuo used to do morning exercises with the perseverance of "a reborn person must do great things", then since he obtained the "daughter fruit", his physical fitness has greatly improved. His bravery at night and unlimited energy during the day have formed a positive cycle. The more he practices, the more energetic he becomes, and the more he works, the more energetic he becomes.
"Li Shuo, good morning!"
When running outside the school, he could usually run into Irene and Jiang Shuying. The running of these two T0 beauties had even sparked a trend of students doing morning exercises outside the school in the past two or three months since the start of school. Just like now, when Irene greeted him, Li Shuo could even see the "large group of people" following them!
Most of these people were boys, and their eyes were all on Li Shuo, filled with envy and jealousy, with expressions of "wanting to replace him" written all over their faces.
Li Shuo had long been accustomed to this. Whenever he got home from school, he would always feel similar gazes as he placed his hands on Wang Ziyu and Feng Linlin's slender waists and paraded through the streets towards Apartment No. 1.
As usual, he nodded and said "OK", then passed by the two women.
"Hey, wait"
Irene suddenly turned around, patted Li Shuo on the shoulder, and then turned around and ran in the same direction with him...
Instantly, the crowd that had been following the two beauties was thrown into chaos:
"Hurry, Irene is turning back!"
"Get out of the way, please make way..."
The "following" group quickly made way for them within a few seconds, and looked at Irene and Jiang Shuying running by with their chests puffed out. Their firm breasts, pretty faces, and the vigorous energy they had after waking up in the morning made most people take a deep breath!
The next moment, many people showed an expression of disgust that was difficult to conceal, because between the two goddesses, there was an extra Li Shuo. This guy looked nonchalant and said casually: "What's going on? Are you going to follow me today?"
His behavior made Jiang Shuying dissatisfied and said, "Hey, you should be happy to have two beautiful women following you. Why do you feel disgusted?"
Ai Lin had a gentle look on her face and said with a smile, "You are such a busy man. You bought shares in the studio, but you never came to take a look. So I can only report these things to the big boss during the morning exercises."
"Why should I worry about what my senior sister is doing? Besides, when I first bought shares, I didn't expect to get any benefits from Irene's studio..."
After running along the green path for more than 10 meters, the three of them "successfully" crossed the crowd of "followers" and left the envious people behind. However, their conversation had already reached the ears of most people, and naturally caused another wave of noise:
"Li Shuo actually invested in my Irene?"
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about! I just bought shares in the studio!"
"I see that boy has a sharp face and the way he looks at Irene is full of ill intentions. Oh, I'm really worried about Irene!"
"Why did lecturer Jiang Shuying also run away with him? Isn't Li Shuo a member of the arts class she teaches?"
"This is outrageous. I am so angry..."
No matter how those people barked incompetence, it would not change the fact that Irene's attitude towards Li Shuo today was ambiguous.
As she ran, she stroked her hair and whispered:
"...Since you invested 50, the studio has survived the crisis. I have also received two business orders. In addition, thanks to you, I have also received the art design for the new dormitory area of the drama academy..."
Li Shuo casually said: "I dare not take credit for this. All the projects in the new dormitory area are in charge of Ziyun..."
Irene smiled and said, "Everyone in the academy knows that you are good at talking, especially in the External Relations Department and the Cultural and Entertainment Department. They are your two former girlfriends..."
"Ahem, senior sister, this is not like you. Why are you still flattering me..."
"I'm telling the truth. Let's get back to the point. Irene Studio has initially gotten out of its predicament, but its root problem has not been solved, which is the lack of long-term profitable projects..."
"so what?"
"Most of our Lenghai's art projects are controlled by the cultural department and the Art Association. I heard from Ziyun that you intend to nominate someone to join the Art Association's management?"
After hearing this, Li Shuo finally understood why Irene deliberately welcomed him today!
He stopped running, turned around and looked at Irene, saying, "Senior sister, what's our relationship? Since you asked, I will naturally help you get things done. It's just... the Art Association is not under my jurisdiction. I can only do my best..."
Irene smiled brightly, nodded and said, "Thank you, Li Shuo, I feel relieved when you say that!"
"Senior, don't be so polite to me. It's strange."
You called me Irene before, but now you have changed it to "senior sister", right?
Irene muttered something in her heart with some resentment, not noticing the strange look Jiang Shuying was giving them.
Li Shuo was also complaining in his heart: If Ai Lin and Jiang Shuying were separated, he could just hug them, but what could he do when the two ambiguous objects stood together? He was also helpless!
At this time, a figure ran over and handed Li Shuo a towel and three bottles of water.
Li Shuo handed the water to the two girls. Jiang Shuying took the water and said, "Okay, Brother Shuo, you are so arrogant now. I would believe you if you said you were the dean of our college!"
Fortunately, Wang Ziyu and Feng Linlin were given a hard time last night, otherwise, wouldn't you have been even more angry if you saw them delivering the water?
Li Shuo smiled calmly, pointed at the newcomer and introduced him, "The Shuoguo Group recently established a security company. This is Huo Si, the person in charge of Shuoguo Security. He is my good brother. The job of serving tea and water is actually his side job..."
At this point, he shrugged and said, "You guys have heard about it, right? I was beaten up at the Communication University some time ago. Since then, I've let my fourth brother stay by my side."
In the Spade A team, Huo Si has the closest relationship with Li Shuo, so he has no grudge against Li Shuo chatting with the two T0 beauties. He even has a sense of honor. Hearing the words, he straightened his head and nodded at the two girls in a cool manner, and said, "Hello, both of you."
"Tsk tsk, a security company?!"
Irene muttered something along the lines of “you’re getting better and better”, and Li Shuo quickly excused himself and left, returning to his morning exercises.
Looking at Li Shuo's majestic and high-spirited back, Jiang Shuying said, "There are changes within the Art Association. How did you know about this?"
Ai Lin smiled and explained her relationship with Feng Linlin and the others. Jiang Shuying sighed and said, "You are still good. Even after graduation, you still have so many girls following you in school. Unlike me, I can only be a counselor after returning to China. Not to mention entering the entertainment industry, it is so difficult to even get resources..."
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to sign with Shuoguo Culture?"
"That was just a consultant. Li Shuo didn't make any promises to me. He just wanted me to leave him alone. In exchange, he gave me a sinecure."
"Speaking of which, if you can go to the Arts Association to take up a management position, that would actually be a good idea. Besides expanding your network of contacts, you can also find many opportunities..."
As they chatted, Irene suddenly said, "Why don't you talk to Li Shuo and see if he can help you get into the Arts Association?"
Jiang Shuying glanced at her and said with a smile, "Come on, this was originally your chance, what's the point of me getting involved?"
After that, Irene tried to persuade her a few more times, but seeing that Jiang Shuying was determined, she stopped persuading her: Because of Irene's studio, she saw the Art Association as a great opportunity, so she was not willing to let her bestie get involved...
Li Shuo ran two laps and felt that time was not enough, so he turned around and went to the Wanjia College store. Seeing him coming, He Yun was very surprised and directly took out a bunch of delicious breakfast.
Li Shuo asked, "How did you know I was coming?"
He Yun replied softly, "I prepare extra breakfast every day, waiting for you to come over."
With just one sentence, Li Shuo embraced the beautiful mature woman...
He came here today on a whim. Now there are many women warming Li Shuo's bed, and he can't spare the time.
Men tend to be fickle creatures, especially after he had played around with Lan Ying'er in the capital, deep down in his heart, Li Shuo no longer cared much about those beauties below level T0!
But after meeting He Yun again, Li Shuo suddenly had some strange feelings: if he was attracted by women's appearance and figure before, now, he gradually had some inseparable feelings of concern...
Half an hour later, when Li Shuo came to the theory building and started his first theory class after returning to school, he suddenly said to Bai Lu beside him: "You should live on campus tonight..."
Bai Lu didn't react for a moment, and sneered habitually: "Humph, don't even think about it, I'm staying in Apartment 2 tonight!"
Li Shuo said "Oh" and didn't respond for a long time.
Only then did Bai Lu come to his senses. He suddenly approached him and asked, "Are you going to Jinding Community tonight?!"
Li Shuo nodded: "I haven't seen your mother for several days..."
Bai Lu was silent, feeling like her brain was about to explode:
You, you, you, how can you say you want to sleep at my house in front of me!
It seems that since I'm on guard against you stealing my best friend, you're going to raid my house, right?
Humph, you only think about Min Yuerou, don’t you think about me at all?
The thoughts in my little head are so complicated that it's hard to sort them out...
Bai Lu ignored Li Shuo for the whole morning, and disappeared at noon. When Li Shuo was having lunch, he received a call from Reba and learned that the girl had gone to Lengyi Training Center.
Reba chatted with her on the phone, and when she felt the time was right, she tentatively said, "I accompanied Sister Mi and Sister Xiao Sa this morning to register the 'Xiao Mi Studio'. Its registered address eventually fell to our Lenghai. Sister Mi was busy recruiting her makeup artists and stylists into the studio, and Sister Xiao Sa gave me an agreement..."
She repeated the contents of the agreement and asked Li Shuo what he thought.
Li Shuo was somewhat surprised and said, "As far as I know, except for Shuoguo Culture, other agencies, no matter how big or small, cannot offer such a lucrative contract. There is a base salary, plus a high commission, and they also promise you a film and television project every year in the future. The agreement that Shuoguo Culture has given you is just like this."
In fact, such a generous contract that is good for artists can only be offered by start-up agencies. Even for the current Shuoguo Culture, after launching the three contract levels of S, A, and M, its agreements have begun to become more stringent!
This is the inevitable development law of the agency. When a company can sign high-quality artists using the most stringent agreements, no company will give up its own profits and take the initiative to relax its control over the artists!
Take Shuoguo’s current signed artists as an example:
Miss and Jiang Mengjie both belong to the S-level protocol. The former has greater freedom and can do almost anything she wants.
Jiang Mengjie, who has a strong background and is only "temporarily signed" to Shuoguo Culture, has been subject to various restrictions by the company, including but not limited to participating in three commercial activities designated by the company each year.
For the A-level agreements of Bai Lu and Li Ziqin, in addition to low base salary and small commission, there are also some additional restrictions.
The restrictions on Bai Lu are "no transfer within 5 years, and Shuoguo has the priority right to renew the contract", while there are 5 restrictions on Li Ziqin, including "no transfer within 5 years", "automatic renewal of 3 years upon expiration of the contract", "no dating", etc.
Li Ziqin even signed an additional "1000 million yuan training agreement", which on the surface means that Shuoguo will invest 1000 million yuan in Li Ziqin to train her into a talented person. If Li Ziqin violates the agreement, the company can ask her to pay 1-10 times the compensation!
In fact, the 1000 million in training fees are all internal estimates of Shuoguo Culture: one class is worth 10, one promotion by the company is worth , and so on!
There are too many "violations of agreements". No matter who you are, no matter how careful you are, you will inevitably say the wrong thing or make some small mistakes over a period of five years.
To put it bluntly, these are violations of confidentiality agreements and causing losses to the company, collectively referred to as "breach of agreement"!
As for the M-level agreement, it was a weird one created by Lu Tingyu. It was an absolute "slave agreement" and was not among the normal agreements.
Even so, the benefits of Shuoguo's S-level and A-level agreements are still better than those of most brokerage companies, because other companies let their artists sign Shuoguo's M signature from the beginning!
Of course, no matter what kind of agreement it is, it can be "flexibly changed". Most brokerage firms will not use penalty clauses from opening to closing.
As for why it is not used? This is a very scary question.
After chatting for a while, Reba went around in circles before hesitatingly saying, "Um, are you free? Sister Xiao Sa wants to meet you and have a meal together..."
"Eat? Okay!"
Li Shuo agreed happily. At 4 pm, after receiving a call from Reba, he immediately left the school and got into Xu Xiaosa's BMW X5.
However, everything seemed dull during the following dinner. After the banquet, Xu Xiaosa took Reba's hand and said anxiously, "After we go back, can you help me ask about that position? What are my chances of winning?"
Reba said, "Don't worry, there will be no problem." After thinking for a while, she called Li Shuo in front of Xu Xiaosa...
But Li Shuo casually said: "Ms. Xu definitely has a chance, but she will have many competitors..."
After hearing all these nonsense, Reba got a little irritated and asked anxiously, "Hey, Li Shuo, why are you still talking to me about this? Give me a definite answer!"
