When Careeraholic Meets Workaholic

Zhou Yao struggled his hand out of Mr. Wang's palm and smiled: "Today is too hasty, and there is still work to be arranged. Let's do it later."

Mr. Wang naturally understands the prevarication. While regretting, he praised Zhou Yao, handed over his business card, and then hurried to the president's office with his boss' bag under his arm.

【Special Elevator】It is falling rapidly to the first floor.

The people in the elevator stepped on the soft carpet and listened to the music in their ears, and felt a weightless feeling for a moment, as if they were in a dream at the moment, and everything became extraordinarily unreal.

When the elevator opened, Zhou Yao walked out first, and the people behind all suppressed their blushing faces and couldn't suppress their smiles with excitement, until Zhou Yao drove away alone, and the others crowded into the car sent by the company. In an instant, it was like taking a stimulant, and the discussion started frantically.

"Wow, my blood is boiling! Mr. Zhou's backer is too awesome!"

"I thought I was just here to make contact today, but I didn't expect that the [-] million contract was signed directly."

"One hundred million is nothing. Zhou's Group is one of the top [-] companies in Huaguo, so let's throw this little money to my son."

"I'm jealous of the rich man with separated plasmodium!"

"But do we have so many projects this year? Do we still plan to make movies? My God, will we build our own building in the future and build a film and television empire? We work as veterans in the company, and the building is full of people like A studio like Blue Star International?"

"It can be expected, I think Zhou is always a person who wants to do big things, and I want to be the person behind him!"

"Let's go! The person behind Mr. Zhou is Bai Lian!"

"Ahem!" Jin Yi woke up and reminded, "For a company to become bigger and stronger, luck and capital are both important, but we are in the entertainment industry, and word of mouth and reputation are more important. Regarding Zhou's personal Questions I hope you guys don't talk about behind your back, it could have a big impact."

The young girls nodded their heads one after another, but Jin Yi was still a little worried.

People's mouths are the most difficult to control, not to mention Mr. Zhou and Bai Lian really have too much heart. It doesn't matter when they are not famous. With Bai Lian's current traffic, he will definitely be picked on by people with a "magnifying glass". The problem will also be revealed. It seems that I need to plan ahead and make more plans.

Zhou Yao was already driving on the road at this time, frowning slightly, it seemed that he was not happy about getting an investment of [-] million today, but was thinking about other things all the time.

After opening two intersections like this, Zhou Yao thought for a while, and pressed a phone number, and soon there was a tricky voice over there.

"Yaoer, what's the matter?"

Zhou Yao asked: "Are there any arrangements for the evening? Accompany me to the Yage club."

"Hey, this... I'm going to my grandpa's house today, you know, I can't avoid it, I'm sorry."

Zhou Yao hung up the phone, frowned after thinking about it, and made another call.

"President Zhou, I'm here." Soon, a white and clean voice rang out from the phone.

Zhou Yao's brows were slightly relieved, and then he said: "Is there anything tonight?"

"No, the latest announcement will be the day after tomorrow."

"Will you go out with me tonight?"

"Okay, okay, where are you going?"

……

That night.

On the West Fourth Ring Road of City A, there is a piece of land specially planned for the entertainment industry. The bar built along the Qingshui River is the favorite place for young people to play. Whenever night falls, the place will be very lively.

But on the backside of an intersection, the adjacent area is crowded with various high-end clubs. Among them, the location is the best, the building appearance is the most magnificent, and it is also the most famous club in City A, which is "Jage Club".

"Accord Clubhouse" is a member management system. It is difficult for people without status to become members in the clubhouse. There are many dignitaries and dignitaries who come and go in the clubhouse. It is definitely a good place for high-level social interaction.

The outside of the clubhouse is circular, and the interior is naturally a circular building. There is a stage in the middle, and big stars often come here to perform business, which is regarded by the capital as a pastime.

When Bai Lian was still in Chonghui's agency, he danced here.

Of course, with his current status, there is no need to dance here anymore.

Ever since signing a contract with Zhou Yao to play Xiao Ziqi in "God Says", Bai Lian has never been here.

Come back today, but as a guest.

The Accord Club has a magnificent main entrance facing the road, but there is also a reception facade in the underground parking lot, and the level of decoration is not inferior to the main entrance. After all, none of the members who come here will come by bus .

A black off-road vehicle worth less than [-] yuan drove into the underground parking lot. Security guards in uniform and white gloves trotted ahead to lead the way, and finally took them to a parking space near the clubhouse gate.

On their left is a sports car worth tens of millions, and on the right is a foreign imported large off-road vehicle worth more than 800 million. This car worth more than 40 is really not enough. The voice shouted: "Pour a little more, pour a little more, be careful, don't hit it!"

Waiting for the black off-road vehicle to drive into the parking space without any risk, the security guard even let out a long breath, and thought to himself, as far as the value of this small broken car, no matter how expensive the insurance is, it may not be able to pay for the damage on the left and right cars. A scratch paint.

He has been working in the clubhouse for some time. To be honest, the worst thing he would spend here is to drive a million-dollar car. He is used to luxury cars and even looks down on million-dollar car owners. There is no car for 50.

Tell me, what are you doing?

Thinking about it this way, when the person came over, the security guard asked in the first sentence: "Excuse me, are you two members of our club?"

His eyes first fell on the face of the man wearing a baseball cap and glasses. It is not uncommon to see people dressing up in the underground parking garage at night. He quickly looked away and looked at another man who was slightly taller. He tried his best to suppress it, but there was still a little doubt in his eyes.

Then the tall man nodded and said, "Yes."

Then he looked at the man beside him and asked, "Why don't you do one too, if someone recommends it, you should be able to do it now."

While talking, the two people had already walked towards the gate, and under the suspicious eyes of the security guard, they entered the gate smoothly.

The Accord clubhouse is a very elegant environment. Only young people like to make noise. In the Accord clubhouse, light music is the main theme. After all, those who can succeed in their careers are not too young.

Adults have adult fun and pastimes, watch shows, drink and socialize with people around them, and such occasions cannot lack some young and beautiful girls.

Bai Lian obviously hasn't gotten used to his current status. When standing next to Zhou Yao, the distance is very close. This is a gesture of seeking support subconsciously.

Then he frowned and said, "Are we here for a show?"

"This is not the main purpose." Zhou Yao deliberately distanced himself from the client, and said in a low voice, "I'm here to find someone."

"Looking for someone? Who?"

Zhou Yao thought for a while, but said nothing.

Zhou Yao came to find someone, his father, Mr. Wang, and the tall, eloquent and beautiful northeast girl that Mr. Wang said.

Although he knows that sometimes these things are unavoidable for entertainment, the girl in Mr. Wang’s mouth reminded him of one thing... In his last life, when he was still writing "Super Calculation", his mother was always haggard and her eyes were swollen I was in a daze, and went back to my grandparents' house for more than a month, and he took it back.

At that time, he was still playful, writing novels upside down day and night, and did not understand the reasons for his mother's poor mental health. He only knew that the atmosphere at home was a bit strange every time he went home. The abnormal atmosphere at home eased somewhat.

Calculate the time, it is about this time.

What will make a woman sad and haggard, the answer is ready to come out.

If Zhou Baoquan dared to mess around outside, he would definitely beat him up!Even if he is his father!The same is not soft!

It's just that the interior of the Yage club is huge, and the security is very good. It is very difficult for Zhou Yao to find someone, but if he calls, he gives the other party time to prepare.

Thinking like this, Zhou Yao followed the client into the private room.

"Wait a minute, the drinks will be served soon." The client said with a smile on his face, and was about to leave.

But Zhou Yao stopped her and asked, "Excuse me, do you have any tall Northeastern girls here, who are very beautiful?"

Bai Lian, who was observing the environment in the room, suddenly turned his head around.

His sunglasses had been taken off, so the client could see his face clearly in an instant, and answered the question: "Bai Lian!"

As the latest top star in Huaguo, Bai Lian fully possesses the strength to be recognized at a glance.

Zhou Yao frowned slightly as he looked at the client who had instantly entered a nympho state.

But Bai Lian walked over with a smile and said, "Yueyue, can you help me find a girl like Mr. Zhou said?"

The next second, because of the relationship between the two of them who should be very familiar, the brows frowned even tighter.

Yueyue was very happy to see Bai Lian, and while asking Bai Lian to take a photo with her to sign, she said, "Our department is different. If you are looking for girls from that area, I'm afraid I'll have to call Aunt Zhao over."

"Aunt Zhao?" Bai Lian thought for a while, then understood, and said, "No, it's not good to spread the word, we just want to find that girl, please help me find out."

Yueyue hesitated, Zhou Yao had already taken out two red soft sister coins and put them in her hands.Yueyue held the money in her palm and left happily.

The door closes.

Zhou Yao looked at Bai Lian.

Bai Lian also looked at Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao said, "You are very familiar with her."

Bai Lian said: "Is the person Mr. Zhou is looking for a very beautiful northern lady?"

The sour smell pervaded the space, but the two of them were too busy drinking the vinegar "brewed" by themselves, but they couldn't smell the overly strong smell in the room.

The eyes of the two met, and separated after a while, explaining to each other.

Bai Lian said, "After all, I have worked here before."

Zhou Yao said: "It's not her that I'm looking for, I just want to prove one thing."

Then they each went to the sofa and sat down, pretending to be safe, and didn't speak again.

From the large floor-to-ceiling glass, you can see the performance on the stage downstairs. A singer from a certain bay is singing. He used to be a very famous singer. Zhou Yao even walked three kilometers to buy his album when he was a child. , but time has changed, the form of entertainment has changed, and those who cannot keep up with the changes of the times are eliminated and have to come to these places to make money.

Zhou Yao and Bai Lian listened to a song quietly, and their moods calmed down. Bai Lian spoke first and talked about his work here.

It's not an unspeakable experience. In such a rich gold-selling cave, although there are all kinds of benefits and money transactions, men are always better able to protect themselves than girls.

What's more, Bai Lian is just a passer-by, a short-term commercial performance, which does not allow him to get any "stains". Compared with dealing with powerful people, Bai Lian's friends are nothing more than ordinary migrant workers here.

They are all young people who come out to make money, so it is not surprising that they have a little communication.

Zhou Yao listened silently, his heart was actually very peaceful.

Zhou Yao has his own understanding of facing the hardships of life. After all, not everyone has the experience of family ruin. Above this level, it is difficult to have any experience that can impress him.

After drinking a little wine like this, and listening to the song for a while, there was a knock on the door, and Yueyue hooked her fingers at the door to Bai Lian.

City A is in the north, and the girls in the north are of course tall and big, so it is not easy to find someone.But fortunately, there was an "internal response". After some screening, Zhou Yao got ten room numbers.

Bai Lian put the note in front of Zhou Yao, frowned and said, "What should I do, there are so many?"

Zhou Yao took it around, but showed a successful smile: "I have found it."

"Found it?" Bai Lian was surprised.

"It's not hard to find, Mr. Zhou will only be in the biggest and best box."

"Mr. Zhou?"

"My Father."

"Your father?" Bai Lian felt that he had become a respondent.

Zhou Yao stood up and said, "Thank you, wait for me here, if I can't come back, I will call."

"..."

Two 10 minutes later.

Underground Parking Lot.

It was the turn of Xiao Li, the security guard who was in charge of guiding Zhou Yao and his car, to come out to work.

There are five of them in one position, and they will take turns to leave the post when there are cars coming in and out. After the owners of 40 cars can also become members they can talk about, they will never feel this way again.

Sure enough, the entertainment industry is not easy to do now. Even the famous Accord Club has started to lower the membership standards?

If this continues, it won't be long before he brings his girlfriend here to play.

After leading the million-dollar black car to the location, Xiao Li finished his work this time, walked behind the guests, passed by the entrance of the clubhouse and returned to the entrance of the underground garage.

In the direction he was coming, he could just see two people coming out of the clubhouse. A middle-aged man was wearing a dark brown turtleneck sweater, holding a black windbreaker in his hands. The watch on the watch is said to be worth more than 600 million, and he can smell the fragrance of money just by looking at it.

Of course, this person remembers his face. As a VIP member of the club, these security guards memorize all their looks and the four or five license plate numbers that match each person, or even more than ten license plate numbers. From a distance, he knew that that person was the president of the Zhou Group, Mr. Zhou Baoquan.

At this moment, Mr. Zhou Baoquan no longer had the air of being surrounded by people, but was placed on the shoulders of another young man who was taller than him. He was bowing his head and back, and his white hair could even be seen on the top of his head illuminated by the light.

Why does it look like it has no spirit?Could it be that he was drunk?

Of course, Xiao Li didn't dare to think that Mr. Zhou Baoquan's posture was due to a guilty conscience, and he didn't dare to think that it was because he was restrained by the young man next to him. He thought in his heart that Mr. Zhou Baoquan was drunk, and the people around him If it's not a business partner, it's his subordinate.

Xiao Li rubbed his hands and walked up quickly, the corner of his mouth almost reaching his ear, oh, here comes my tip!

But when he just walked in front of them, he saw with his own eyes that the dear and respected Mr. Zhou Baoquan was pushed out by the young man, staggered into the car, and was picked up by the young man by his collar. .

Xiao Li was so frightened that he even reached for the baton pinned to his waist and shouted, "What are you doing! Let go of Mr. Zhou!"

Then the man holding Mr. Zhou Baoquan's collar turned his head.

Xiao Li finally recognized his face, the 40 member.

Immediately, the security guard became even more anxious. He grabbed the hand of "40 members" and said loudly, "Stop it! Or I will do it!"

The man whose hand was grabbed turned his head and was kicked coldly by him. The security guard waved the baton in his hand and threatened: "I have received professional training, don't do it!"

"What are you doing! Let him go!" But it was Mr. Zhou Baoquan who spoke earlier, and he snatched his baton and threw it aside, and then pulled the hand of "40 members" out of his hand, Then he whispered to the man, "Don't make trouble here."

"Are you sorry for my mother?"

"Let's talk after we get out of here."

The 40 members pushed away Mr. Zhou's hand, went straight for a few steps and then turned back and said, "I won't tell her about this, but you can't find that person again."

"This is work, play on the spot..."

"To do too much is wrong."

"Zhou Yao!"

"Zhou Baoquan!"

"What did you call me? Say one more..."

"..."

"Zhou Yao!" Mr. Zhou stared.

After a few seconds of silence, "40" said, "Do you remember the hangover soup my mother made for you? Did you learn massage techniques for you? How often do you go home and how often does she sleep? It's not that she has no independent ability. Calligraphy and painting are all good, no one can boast of lower script, Danqing brush is a teacher, not to mention the contacts that grandma and grandpa have made for you in the cultural world. Marrying you for more than 30 years has served you comfortably, without a family Peace and ease, where do you come from for your free capital!"

Xiao Li instantly understood who the person in front of him was.

The heir of the Zhou Group, Mr. Zhou.

It's also weird, starting with a 40 car, to catch Dad's romantic debts, ouch, this kind of excitement can't be joined, maybe even work will be "missed".

Thinking of this, Xiao Li lowered his head to find his baton, and heard a "bang" before he was far away. He tiptoed and pulled his neck to look over there, and saw Mr. Zhou Baoquan covering his face. Leaning against a car worth tens of millions, the car was still shaking slightly.

A voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Group C, Group C, arrange for someone to visit Area A."

Xiao Li raised the walkie-talkie: "Uh, family disputes, I'm paying attention to the situation..."

……

The sensation caused by "Super Calculator" is not so easy to disappear, and even because of its success, not only did Bai Lian become the top traffic in Huaguo, even Zhou Yao's fans also reached 6000 million.

So Zhou Yao's name appeared in No. 3 of Weibo hot search recently.

#Zhou Yao hits people#

It's not a good topic, but it's very controversial. Most people support Zhou Yao. Only a small number of people insist that Zhou Yao is drifting, crazy, and not paying attention to his image. As a public figure, he should not be in the public eye at any time. Hitting people in public.

But those who supported Zhou Yao said firmly, "Everything should be done on a case-by-case basis. Do you want to do something when you see your friend being hurt? Sorry, I don't think that person is a gentleman, I only think he is a coward." "

"I was shocked when I saw the trending search. I thought what happened to Yin Shangda? After I learned about it, I just want to say, well played, well played, and thunderbolt methods should be used against this kind of pervert. do not know!"

"Can everyone stop talking about Yin Shangda beating people? Obviously the video is out, can you watch it before you talk! It's obvious that you just overwhelmed people, and then twisted to the police station! Yin Shangda didn't beat people , why is it getting more and more outrageous!"

"I've seen the video for sure, I just want to say, you are so handsome! Protecting Xiaobai is amazing! My boyfriend is so powerful!"

"It's really scary. There will be perverted men disguised as women to chase stars. But what is the sentence that Mr. Zhou yelled in the video? I heard it many times and couldn't understand it."

"I've seen another version, Mr. Zhou yelled, "You stuffed the note" or something like that."

"My friend was also at the scene. According to the tour guide, this pervert was still stuffing a note under the door of Xiaobai's room in the middle of the night. The content was particularly disgusting. The police had come here once before."

"Ahhh~ It's scary~ Boys must be careful outside~~"

This incident caused a lot of trouble, but it didn't have much impact on Zhou Yao's personal reputation, and of course it wasn't good for a producer like him who doesn't rely on traffic.

But Zhou Yao hasn't posted a hot search yet. By nightfall, a new hot search came from behind and quickly surpassed him, occupying No.1 on the hot search list.

#Yu Ming angrily denounces illegitimate meal#

Yu Ming: [Some people have chased me all the way and I have already spoken well, if you stop me from saying those words, I can sue you! 】

An angry Yu Ming's words on Weibo put him on the trending list.

Although Yu Ming's current popularity has vaguely been surpassed by Bai Lian, but as a top player for three years, Yu Ming's traffic is still very scary, and it is by no means that he can destroy a super IP.

"Zhanlong Jue" was defeated by Bai Lian. In the play, Yu Ming's acting skills were criticized, but his fans still loved him and called him crazy for him. Popularity has also increased.

However, the top-notch "Twilight of the End of the World" did appear gradually, and this time Yu Ming's hot search was scolded.

"I'm bad at acting, I ruined an IP and still have the face to say, what's wrong with scolding you, don't take porcelain jobs without diamonds, don't you have no idea?"

"People said they were harassed by illegitimate fans, and you were also harassed by illegitimate fans. Your team didn't have anything to talk about and got fired, right?"

"The big stars in the latest episode all have raised forehead lines, so please don't pass it by if you are a fan."

……

Leaving aside how Yu Ming's team planned to do public relations, Zhou Yao and the others held a meeting because of this.

At the meeting, Jin Yi repeatedly emphasized: "Everyone should pay attention to their words and deeds, especially those around Xiaobai. You know whether the company pays you higher or lower salaries than your peers, so as long as you make a mistake once, you will be rewarded." Not only did he lose his job, but he would also be sued by the company."

"Bai Lian, don't go out by yourself these days. I received a message yesterday. Did you call an online car-hailing car at midnight? Where did you go so late?"

Zhou Yao, who was seated in the first seat, raised his hand and said, "It was Accord where I asked Xiaobai to go. I left early because I had something to do. I'm sorry."

Jin Yi glanced at Zhou Yao and stopped talking about it, but stayed after the meeting and said to Zhou Yao: "Mr. Zhou, although I said that this matter may not be appropriate, the company is still in its infancy. You can't stand any wind and rain, so why don't you and Bai Lian meet at home? And you must go out to play? By the way, you just came back from a trip."

Zhou Yao nodded to admit his mistake. Yesterday he was so angry that he punched Zhou Baoquan, which made half of Zhou Baoquan's body numb. In the end, he drove Zhou Baoquan to the hospital, and then sent him home, leaving Bai Lian behind. I waited for a long time in the Accord clubhouse alone.

Jin Yi also knew that she was a little nervous right now, and after trying to adjust her emotions, she spoke in a soft voice: "Mr. Zhou, I won't go on a trip. There are a lot of things going on recently, especially the cooperation with Zhou. Don’t worry about other people doing it.”

Zhou Yao naturally welcomed this kind of dedicated staff, and said straightforwardly: "I'll give you a cash discount. When I get a bonus, I won't be busy later. I will arrange for you to go out to play again. It's better to bring a bigger Doudou."

A smile appeared on Jin Yi's tense face: "I like your arrangement."

After talking about this matter, let it go, Jin Yi changed his mind and said: "The bodyguards for Bai Lian have arrived, and they are probably meeting now, do you need to take a look?"

Of course it is needed.

Zhou Yao stood up, took two steps and said, "Give Bai Lian a car, not a nanny car."

After leaving the conference room, stepping on the corridor, passing through two offices, and arriving at Bai Lian's lounge.

The door was open, and when Zhou Yao entered, he saw four tall and strong men almost filling up the small room. They were wearing black suits and ties, standing with their hands behind their backs in front of Bai Lian, full of momentum.

Zhou Yao walked around and took a look. They were all young men in their twenties, and they looked very energetic.

Before he could speak, Bai Lian came over, frowned and said, "Is there more than four?"

Jin Yi said, "Not many."

"Didn't you say two at the beginning?"

"There are only four rows of noodles. You are so popular now that you have this size."

Bai Lian had no choice but to remain silent.

There were too many people in the lounge, and those four strong men were capable of robbing the air. Aunt Lan asked them to go out and wait, and then a few people opened a "About Bai Lian's work schedule for the next quarter" in the lounge. small meeting.

Bai Lian has no filming for the next two months. The second season of "Super Computing" is still in preparation, and the second season of "God Says" has not been filmed yet, so the two months It's a gap period.

After sitting down, Jin Yi threw out three scripts and said, "In the past two months, I suggest joining the filming group. Recently, a lot of scripts have been handed over to me. I picked them out, and all of them can be entered in the near future, and the cast has all Very nice group."

Aunt Lan said: "I received an invitation to a show, which is a talent show, a key project of Hutai this year, and Bai Lian was invited to be a mentor."

Jin Yi frowned: "Well, it's not that our own actors are good, and it's not that Xiaobai is not good enough, but he has just become popular, and he is not qualified to be a mentor. Isn't this handing over the blame to others? "

Aunt Lan thought about it: "But I can't guarantee the quality if I go to other crews. The "Slaying the Dragon", which claims to have invested more than [-] million yuan, will be rushed by Yu Ming. I don't think it's safe to join someone else's crew."

The two argued, disagreeing with each other's proposal, and of course they didn't have much confidence in their own proposal. Later, their eyes fell on Bai Lian, and they asked him, "What do you think?"

Bai Lian closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "Although I am a little famous now, I am still a newcomer in the film and television industry. I think I should settle down now. Master also said that my acting skills still have a lot of room for improvement."

"Okay, that's it." Zhou Yao, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up, "Arrange acting training for Xiaobai in the next two months, and arrange as few announcements as possible for him, unless necessary."

When the big boss opened his mouth, how could others have any objections? Jin Yi slapped his head and said, "What's the use of the four security guards I hired?"

Everyone thought that Bai Lian's acting training should be to invite an acting teacher to come for one-on-one teaching, basically either at home or in the company. No one expected that after waiting for two days, Bai Lian would go to school with his schoolbag on his back.

The four security guards were naturally used.

Speaking of Bai Lian's schooling, he also mentioned his master, Tang Ze.

Bai Lian really admired Tang Ze because of his friendship in a play, so he worked hard to learn acting from Tang Ze both in and out of the play, and later Tang Ze simply agreed to accept Bai Lian as his apprentice, so Bai Lian was serious He handed over the ceremony and kowtowed.

Tang Ze is a professor of acting at Nortel. He can not only act, but also teach others. He especially admires Brecht’s performance system, and repeatedly advocates that actors should control their roles, expressing the roles in the play instead of melting the actors into the roles. It is a firm belief that only actors with their own characteristics can be noticed and liked by the audience.

During the cooperation period, he taught Bai Lian a lot of acting skills, but because the filming ended, Bai Lian quickly joined the crew of the second season of "God Says", which caused the two of them to interrupt their teaching.

Bai Lian also felt that it was a pity, the more he learned, the more he felt that he was not enough.

So after deciding to study further, Bai Lian contacted Tang Ze. Tang Ze quickly consulted with the principal of Nortel and confirmed the quota for auditing.

The so-called "audit quota".

In other words, Bai Lian wanted to wash off all her pretense, carry her schoolbag, and go back to school for class!
