There is light in the deep sea

The contract between Jiang Xichen and Sheng Lin is somewhat different from others.

When he first came back, Jiang Dongwei, the eldest brother, personally suggested to open a company for him directly.But this proposal was rejected by him on the grounds that he was "too arrogant". At the same time, he contacted several domestic companies in his personal capacity. Sheng Lin can be said to be the one that won the competition.

At that time, it was obvious that Jiang Xichen was in an active position, so he gained more autonomy. The most important manifestations were the two unique points in the contract.One is that his contract is only for four years, which is one year less than the average artist of Sheng Lin, and the other is that the company cannot interfere with his love affairs.The latter will specifically raise it because it is absolutely not allowed to fall in love when he was an idol abroad.

He recalled this project that he had asked for at the beginning, and he was a little confused: "It should have been mentioned in the contract that I can fall in love, right?"

Chu Wenjin said: "To be precise, it is stipulated that you can normally announce your relationship without damaging the company's interests and image."

"Is that how you stated it?" Jiang Xichen frowned, and seemed to be concerned about the question, but there was no worry in his eyes.

Chu Wenjin said again: "It wasn't originally... Do you remember that the day you read the contract, you hadn't signed it. I took it back at night, and Qi Ming asked to change it. The newly printed one the next day You signed it without looking carefully."

Jiang Xichen nodded his chin: "Yes, but you seem to have read it to me, and it doesn't sound too bad to me."

Speaking of this, Chu Wenjin showed a regretful and helpless expression: "At that time, you only cared about the money, and you signed it after seeing that it hadn't been changed. Now..." She sighed sadly, looked at Jiang Xichen, With a sad face, "Huo Yi and 'Very Good' may be broadcasting a program. No matter what their program is, it is impossible for the company and you to have no negative impact."

Jiang Xichen listened, thinking about it, and then nodded in understanding.

This kind of "negative impact" does not mean that there will be a bad reputation. On the contrary, based on the aesthetics and tastes of the current audience, after the program is released, the popularity and topicality of him and Xie Wu will probably be even higher.On the negative side, it is on the review.

——If the issue of homosexuality is made a fuss and attracts the attention of the radio, television and cultural departments, it will inevitably come to Sheng Lin first, at least for inquiries, and at worst for censorship.In addition, there is an impact on him personally, in a predictable form, and he is banned to a certain extent for reasons such as image.Not to mention too much, if he is not allowed to be on the stars or on TV, many things will leave him out of thin air.

"It's really troublesome." Jiang Xichen shrugged, his face still didn't show much concern, but he smiled, looked back at Chu Wenjin with a little comfort, and said, "That's my fault for not reading the contract carefully. Big responsibility."

Chu Wenjin hesitated to speak, knowing that his relaxed attitude was to prevent himself from feeling too guilty, so he felt soft and warm in his heart, and he also relaxed a little: "You don't look too nervous, what do you think? Yet?"

Jiang Xichen shook his head: "It hasn't happened yet, so what can I think about it? But, what does Sheng Qiming mean? I met Jiani just now, and I heard that he was going to blackmail me for liquidated damages? What is his name? I talked about breaking the contract." in love?"

Chu Wenjin was a little impatient, and waved his hand: "He's just messing around, trying to scare you with his words, and trying to keep you in a different way. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, his attitude is that if you promise to stay, he will suppress you." It's a 'very good' show, if you leave, he will use this name to ask you to pay compensation."

Jiang Xichen said, "I didn't know that Boss Sheng valued me so much!"

Chu Wenjin: "Of course! Now that you're gone, where can Sheng Lin find another cash cow like you?"

Jiang Xichen: "Isn't there a newcomer? I saw it in the elevator."

Chu Wenjin: "Those two kids? They are still far away. They are popular, but they can't come to everything, and the venues can't be suppressed. Now there are so many newcomers of all kinds, and the market changes so much. Hurry up, wait for no one to grow up slowly!"

Jiang Xichen was noncommittal after hearing this, and looked a little more serious than before, expressing his attitude: "I will definitely go, 'very good', I don't think you need to spend too much effort to negotiate, even if the negotiation is successful, Sheng Qiming will I will find another reason to embarrass me, it is difficult for you to be in the middle."

Chu Wenjin: "Then I can't just ignore you like this! I'm still your manager right now, and I'm still Sheng Lin's artist director!"

The smirk on Jiang Xichen's lips was even bigger than before, and he said coldly: "Sheng Qiming didn't even bother to suppress this gossip, so it can be seen that he doesn't care about its influence on Sheng Lin at all, so why should you worry too much about him? As for Me, if you help me in the later stage, don't let the gossip rise too much, and I shouldn't be reduced to the point where I can't be on TV. Well, Du Xinlai has come out publicly before, and now he is returning to the TV screen gone?"

"Him?" Mentioning this senior brother, Chu Wenjin had another speechless expression on his face, "He is backed by a mountain, and the backstage is very hard now, and I can get by with my little ability, otherwise how could such a situation be possible?" Good thing?"

Regarding Du Xinlai's backstage, it has been a big gossip that has been secretly spread in the circle recently. Even though he has been hiding in the Lanhua Theater for days, Jiang Xichen has heard about it.Knowing vaguely that Du Xinlai is backed by a big figure in the system, he can replay it on the TV screen and make a popular talk show like "Dialogue with AB".

But it was someone else's gossip, he just listened to it and didn't care much.Hearing what Chu Wenjin said, he didn't ask any more questions, but only half-jokingly said: "Then I'll find a backstage too, I'm already a fast-moving person, you really, stop protecting me too much. "

Chu Wenjin was silent, and subconsciously wanted to find out what else he meant by "find the backstage", but was blocked by his last sentence, and his heart felt a little sour.This child, whom she had protected and escorted with all her heart for four years, began to really walk out of her wings and rejected her.

After all, it is a working relationship, once the contract expires, what should be broken will be broken.

After a long time, she packed her bag: "It's getting late, I should get off work too, shall we go together?"

Jiang Xichen also looked at his watch, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face: "Maybe it's not on the way, I have to go back to the theater to pick up Xie Wu. I ran out by myself just now, and I didn't even have time to say hello to him."

"That's it..." Chu Wenjin suddenly felt a little embarrassed, nodded, and pretended to tease, "Really, I forgot that you are all married now. At such a young age, you are older than your sister." in a hurry!"

Jiang Xichen stood up: "Then I'll go first."

Chu Wenjin pursed her lips and said "um", already carrying her bag in her hand, but could only watch Jiang Xichen's back as he left.In the past four years, she has seen this figure countless times, most of which were to send him to other places to make announcements and film and television works, but only this time, she felt a sadness called "parting" in her heart.

It's like watching a child grow up and leave home, and my heart feels empty.Looking back, I can't find a person who can look at this back together, let alone a hug that can comfort my loss.

Until she could no longer see Jiang Xichen, she took out her mobile phone from her bag and dialed a number.

The receiver rang again and again, and it took a long time before someone picked it up. The other party's voice sounded perfunctory and indifferent: "What's the matter?"

"Qi Ming, can you come and pick me up?" She asked in a low voice, without much hope.

Sure enough, there was no hope for her: "Is it now? Not now, I just arrived at the dinner party, today there is..."

"Okay, I understand." She interrupted the "explanation" which was not worth listening to. Sheng Qiming didn't bother to hear her voluntarily give up asking, and comforted perfunctorily, "I'll go home early at night." , "Eat well", I want to hang up the phone.

But she suddenly asked: "Sheng Qiming, let's get married, shall we?"

There was a sudden pause, a moment of silence, and he asked with some uncertainty: "Why did you mention this suddenly? Aren't you, aren't you in a hurry?"

Hearing this, Chu Wenjin opened his mouth, grievances and questions rushed to his throat, but he was stuck there, unable to speak again.

How many years have she and Sheng Qiming have been together, if I don't deliberately count them, I can't even remember.For such a long time, she never took the initiative to mention marriage, and she didn't even show that she wanted to get married, but how could anyone in the world not want to marry the person she loves?Unless you are too clear about the person you love, you don't love yourself enough.

She has always understood this point, but when she was young, she was lucky and waited for it year after year.However, so far, nothing has changed.For her, this is something more terrifying than flirting with women.It has no turning point, which means that my expectations and hopes will not bear fruit.

Everything stuck in her throat finally turned into a sigh, and she replied lightly: "Yeah, I'm not in a hurry, because I haven't met the right person. Qi Ming, let's stop here. You don't have to come back tonight , just go to any of your younger sisters, if you have time these two days, come and pack your things."

Sheng Qiming let out an exclamation: "Xiao Jin!"

Chu Wenjin pressed the phone, and the ending of Sheng Qiming's voice was completely cut off by the radio waves.

She calmly opened the phone's photo album, called up one with a password, and slid through the photos one by one.Those were all intimate photos of Sheng Qiming and others, including the little artist Jiang Xichen met in the parking lot that day.These were all taken by acquaintances who caught her by chance. Just by chance, the number is already considerable.

As she read it, she deleted it, and when she deleted the last one, she felt a sense of peace in her heart.Looking up and looking in front of me, I feel that the tide is flat and the two sides are wide, and the road ahead is very spacious.

When Jiang Xichen returned to the theater, the administrative staff had already left work.Generally speaking, at this time, the actors have almost left, so he didn't go in again, he just called Xie Wu and asked him if he could leave.

Xie Wu's mood still sounded dull: "Let's go, go now. Where are you? When you turn around, you disappear, but you and I are in such a hurry!"

Feeling depressed and still able to wrap his mouth in honey, Jiang Xichen was so amused that he burst out laughing, and hurriedly returned a mouthful of candy cooperatively.After seeing his car from a distance, he hung up the phone.

At this time, Jiang Xichen found a message in WeChat.

"Xiaochen, let me continue to be your manager in the future."
