Mr. Zhen and I

"

"Each of their members has their own fans?"

"Yes, all of their members have their own Weibo accounts with tens of thousands of followers."

Zhen Hao nodded, but couldn't tell what was wrong.

I don't dare to play too crazy with girls.Later, a few people talked and laughed, ate the takeaway, sang a few more songs, and wanted to go back one after another.

Yi Jingfeng said that he wanted to take the two girls home, but Yang Li declined with a smile, saying that she was driving a car, and she planned to go shopping with Manman before going back.Yi Jingfeng smiled, so the four of them bid farewell and went their separate ways.

Yi Jingfeng drove the car, turned on the radio, and asked Zhen Hao where he wanted to go.

Zhen Hao said casually: "Go home directly?"

"It's not too late." Yi Jingfeng put his hands on the steering wheel, "Let's go for a few laps outside."

Zhen Hao had nothing to do with Yi Jingfeng's smiling expression: "Okay, it's up to you."

Yi Jingfeng took him to the night market in the city center, the two parked their car, and strolled leisurely together for a while.This is the time when the night market is at its busiest, and the square is full of buskers, small vendors, and hot businesses selling promotions, creating a busy scene.

Yi Jingfeng bought two cans of beer and handed one to Zhen Hao.

Drinking slightly cool beer, leaning against the bridge with the night wind blowing.Occasional leisure is always refreshing.

After returning home, Yi Jingfeng took a shower as usual.I came out of the bathroom wet all over, went into the bedroom and turned on the air conditioner, and sat on the bed to read a book.

Zhen Hao went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and then went to the bathroom to take a shower as well.When he went back to the bedroom and lifted the quilt to go to sleep, Yi Jingfeng suddenly asked, "Is your company busy again recently?"

Zhen Hao turned sideways slightly, "Huh?"

"It feels like you've been working a lot of overtime these days."

Zhen Hao smiled slightly, knowing that Yi Jingfeng was caring about him.

So she sat up straight, put her arms around Yi Jingfeng's waist and kissed him beautifully, and sucked his soft lower lip.Let go of his lips, and put on a cheap and obedient expression: "Are you worried about me?"

Yi Jingfeng smiled and pushed him away: "Fuck you."

Zhen Hao also laughed a few times, loosened Yi Jingfeng's waist, said good night, then lay back down and stretched out his hands to cover him with the quilt.

Yi Jingfeng touched his lips, and held him shyly.

"Huh?" Zhen Hao looked at Yi Jingfeng inexplicably.

Yi Jingfeng coughed a few times: "Cough, no, that, did you not brush your teeth?"

"It's been brushed."

"Let me check." After speaking, Yi Jingfeng blushed, pinched Zhen Hao's chin, and kissed him tenderly.

Kissing and kissing, Zhen Hao straightened up and stretched out his hands cooperatively to pull Yi Jingfeng into his arms.Yi Jingfeng was a little emotional, and couldn't help hooking Zhen Hao.After a while, Zhen Hao's response became a little absent-minded. Yi Jingfeng tentatively teased him with the tip of his tongue several times, but it didn't arouse any violent reaction.

In the end, Yi Jingfeng let go of his hand a little disappointed, "What are you thinking?"

Zhen Hao sighed, "It's about work."

"Huh?" Yi Jingfeng opened his eyes slightly.

71 formal cooperation

Yang Bin brought back news that there was basically no problem with the contract, and it could be signed, depending on the wishes of the two of them.

Zhen Hao found a time to book a private room, served a table of food, and chatted slowly with Yang Bin.

Yang Bin's attitude didn't change much, the same sentence: "I think we should be cautious."

In fact, Zhen Hao is not without his own considerations.It's just that the contract seems to be perfect now, and it really doesn't seem appropriate to directly refuse to cooperate.

All that needs to be said has been said, and Yang Bin remained silent for the rest of the time, looking at Zhen Hao, waiting for him to speak.

Zhen Hao hesitated for a while, and said, "Business cooperation is still possible."

"Are you sure? Brother Zhen," Yang Bin glanced at the contract, "Then we signed it?"

Zhen Hao nodded, "Sign."

Went to meet with the head of the studio in the afternoon.Zhen Hao and Yang Bin were neatly dressed, took another small manager of the company with them, and made an appointment to meet each other in a teahouse.

The teahouse has a very Chinese style, with quiet and leisurely boxes and soft background music.It is a well-known local antique shop.

After the three sat down, they chatted for a while, but there was no sign of each other.Almost an hour had passed since the appointed time, and when the three of them started to make a phone call to ask questions, the person from the other party arrived late.

Only two people came to the other party's studio, one wearing glasses and carrying a backpack.The other has a reggae hair comb and a DSLR bag hanging around his neck, looking dusty.

Zhen Hao remembered that the person in charge on the contract was named Liu Yang, so he asked, "Mr. Liu..."

"Oh, he has something to do today, so he won't come here. The two of us can be regarded as his deputy, so let's talk for him." Reggaetou smiled naturally, "I think this is Mr. Zhen?"

Yang Bin and another senior executive looked at each other inexplicably, Zhen Hao nodded politely, "Yes, I am Zhen Hao. These two are Mr. Yang Bin and Wu Ran."

"Oh, okay." Reggaeto stretched out his hands to the three of them, shook each of them, and said with a smile, "I'm Wang Wei, and this is Zhao Qingdong."

Several people greeted each other, Yang Bin stepped forward to invite them to sit down, and then rang the bell to summon the waiter.

"Hey! It's just in time!" Wang Wei called the waiter, "Come here, I'll order some food first. I just came back from the filming location, and I'm exhausted."

The waiter came over with the menu. Wang Wei took the menu, glanced at Zhen Hao, and ordered a few.Finally, he pushed the menu towards Zhen Hao.

All the signature dishes are expensive.

Zhen Hao glanced at Yang Bin, ordered a few dishes and drinks symbolically, and finally returned the order to the waiter.

The wait for the food is not too long.However, Reggaetou seemed to be really hungry, and he played with his phone impatiently with Erlang's legs up.The man wearing glasses chatted briefly with Zhen Hao as if trying to smooth things over, but what he said were all irrelevant gossip.

Fortunately, after the food was served, Wang Wei took a few mouthfuls of food, his mood eased a little, and his manner of speaking was also a little more tactful.

When discussing the contract, Yang Bin flipped through the documents and emphasized the obligations and rights of Party A.Wang Wei squinted his eyes and listened. When Yang Bin said, "Party A is eligible to obtain the right to use and publicize some works of Party B's studio...", he suddenly couldn't help laughing. Everyone in the room can hear it.

As soon as the laughter came out, the three people present were a little embarrassed.Zhen Hao said with a sullen face, "Mr. Wang is not satisfied with this clause?"

Wang Wei raised the corner of his mouth: "No, no, you can continue."

But the eyes clearly said, "A small company like yours, is it worthy?".

The three of them fell silent for a while, and in the end Wu Ran, the executive who was with them, said, "Okay, since there is no doubt, let's continue."

Yang Bin coughed a few times, and continued to read out the contents of the contract.

On the whole, the talks went smoothly. The five people went over all the key points, and finally reached a consensus and officially signed the agreement.

When it was his turn to pay the bill, Wang Wei, wearing glasses, walked in front of the room quite casually. He came to the front desk and took out his mobile phone: "How much is room 89?"

The lady at the front desk smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry sir, this store does not support mobile payment."

Wang Wei gave a "tsk", opened the wallet, and took out a card from the compartment: "Is it okay to swipe the card?"

"I'm really sorry, sir." The lady at the front desk smiled again, "This store only accepts cash checkout, please understand."

Wang Wei's face darkened suddenly, and the little brother wearing glasses beside him cleared his throat in embarrassment.When the three people behind saw this, Wu Ran glanced at them, sighed, walked over, and took out the cash in the wallet: "Let me do it."

After Wu Ran settled the bill, Wang Wei's expression softened a little, and he smiled at Wu Ran at the door: "Brother, this shabby shop is too picky, don't mind."

Wu Ran shook his head to express that it was all right, and the five of them waved goodbye.In the end, Wang Wei and the glasses brother took their bags and drove away in a car.

Watching the back of the taxi gradually disappear into the chaotic crossroads, Yang Bin stood there with his arms around his waist, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated for a moment: "...Why do I feel that these two people came here specially for dinner?"

Wu Ran said with a sad face: "Damn... one meal ate up my two months' wages, it's too cruel!"

Zhen Hao patted Wu Ran on the shoulder to express comfort: "This meal will be treated as my treat. The bonus will be made up for you."

Yang Bin was speechless, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, picked out one and lit it.Amidst the smog, Yang Bin and Zhen Hao looked at each other, they both frowned, and there was something inexplicable in their eyes.

After Zhen Hao returned home, Yi Jingfeng was lying on the sofa in the living room playing with his mobile phone in his bathrobe as usual.

Zhen Hao's mood suddenly relaxed a lot.He naturally put on his shoes and hung up his coat, came to the sofa and sat down, squeezed Yi Jingfeng's feet: "What are you playing? You didn't respond when you saw me coming?"

Yi Jingfeng remembered what happened last night, hummed a few times and turned his head away.

Zhen Hao smiled: "Are you still angry?"

Yi Jingfeng turned his head away and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Jingfeng, turn around and look at me."

Yi Jingfeng paused for a moment with his finger swiping the phone screen.

Zhen Hao continued to gently scratch his waist: "Jing Feng? Huh?"

"It's already six o'clock." Yi Jingfeng didn't look back, but came over with a helpless voice, "Are you working overtime today?"

"Yeah." Zhen Hao withdrew his hand, sat on the sofa and loosened his tie, and said with a sigh of relief, "I'm really busy these few days preparing to cooperate with another studio."

Yi Jingfeng sighed and put away his phone.

Seeing that Yi Jingfeng's heart softened, Zhen Hao immediately struck while the iron was hot, and seriously reflected, "It was my fault to be distracted yesterday." After a pause, he asked cautiously: "Then... what should I do? Forgiving and great Mr. Yi will forgive me?"

Yi Jingfeng turned his face around and glanced at him: "Then peel an orange for me."

Zhen Hao laughed immediately, quickly peeled an orange, and handed it to Yi Jingfeng: "Come."

Yi Jingfeng took the oranges and was silent for a moment, then reached out his hand to Zhen Hao's mouth, and said softly, "Zhen Hao, don't be too tired."

Zhen Hao was taken aback for a moment, and a gentle smile spread from the corner of his mouth.

"Ah."

Zhen Hao smiled, opened his mouth and ate the orange with Yi Jingfeng's fingers, and finally kissed Yi Jingfeng's cool fingertips.

Yi Jingfeng trembled a little, and subconsciously let out a "huh".Zhen Hao continued to move, gently holding Yi Jingfeng's slightly trembling fingers.Following Yi Jingfeng's eager refusal and welcome, the thick and sweet kiss kept sliding down, and while undressing, the fiery lips finally settled on Yi Jingfeng's shoulders.

Yi Jingfeng's body has started to feel a little warm, lying on the sofa, gasping for breath, his eyes shrouded in mist seem to be asking "Do you want to do it?".

Zhen Hao endured his slightly disordered breathing, and he really didn't want to spoil the scenery, but... "—Baby, can I have a meal first?... I... seem to have a little hypoglycemia..."

Yi Jingfeng: "..."

"...I'm really...a little dizzy..."

"...Didn't you have dinner again today?"

"..."

"..."

Yi Jingfeng looked at the middle-aged Zhen Hao who eagerly trot to the kitchen to find the leftovers to eat, and was in a very complicated mood at the moment, thinking silently, Zhen Hao, this trick of your sister is really cruel.

Run away after teasing.

Dog, you have changed.

Zhen Hao ate the noodles while playing with his mobile phone.

Zhen Hao swiped through Weibo for a while, watched Yi Jingfeng's homepage, and flipped through his own homepage habitually, but accidentally caught a glimpse of the latest Weibo of Wang Wei, a member of Level Studio.

That Weibo posted a few photos of them going to the teahouse to discuss business in the afternoon, basically all of them were food.The accompanying text reads, "It tastes good, and I'm in a good mood. After seeing the new boss, all of us young and old will follow him, haha."

After watching too much, Zhen Hao just smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes.

By chance, I found the official blog of Horizontal Line Studio by following the profile picture I liked, and I was a little surprised to find that they actually posted on Weibo immediately to announce that their studio and Zhen Hao's company had formally reached a long-term business relationship.The wording of the entire public relations article is relatively euphemistic, blurring many professional words and sentences.Coupled with Wang Wei's last microblog fanning the flames, it is easy for outsiders to misunderstand that the horizontal line studio has become a subsidiary of Zhen Hao's company, and the two parties have merged.

In fact, the two are just ordinary cooperative relations, and the company and the studio are independent of each other.

Zhen Hao suddenly had a faint feeling of something bad.

After eating the noodles and washing the dishes, Zhen Hao went to the bathroom to wash up, changed into pajamas and went to the bedroom.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yi Jingfeng leaning on the back of the bed and flipping through a magazine.Hearing the movement, he put down the book in his hand and looked towards Zhen Hao.

Zhen Hao blinked: "...Do you want to check if I brushed my teeth?"

Yi Jingfeng smiled, his laughter was bright and clear, which made Zhen Hao blushed unconsciously, and felt a tingling sensation from the spine of his tail.

Then Yi Jingfeng stretched out his hand, and extinguished the incandescent lamp on the top of the wall with a snap.

72 Accident

After signing the contract, Horizon Studio began to be responsible for some photography projects of Zhen Hao Company on a regular basis, earning some appearance fees.Over time, the company's photography tasks were almost contracted by Horizon Studio.

As the cooperation between the two parties increased, the interaction on the network platform also increased for a while.As the key interactive object of the horizontal official blog, Zhen Hao slowly gained thousands of fans.

Fans tacitly called Zhen Hao "Golden Master Dad".

Zhen Hao posted a daily Weibo, and the comments below were all horizontal line KY fans.When I went out to play, I asked the gold master's father to raise the salary of the horizontal line. After cooking a few dishes, I said that the XX in the horizontal line was also very good at cooking. He was like a family god.Even posting a film review of a movie has to be KYed by fans, "I still think that the film review of this movie is written by the horizontal XX to be more pertinent."

After seeing this kind of comment too much, the quality of some fans of the horizontal line family has become more and more obvious.

Yi Jingfeng told Zhen Hao not to worry about these things, and to read a few more books to get angry with these fans when he has time.But Zhen Hao wasn't really angry at all, at most, if it bothered him, he could just open another account, but he couldn't post Yi Jingfeng's photos on Weibo anymore.

Thinking of this, Zhen Hao set all the sneak photos posted before to be visible only to himself.

Everything went smoothly at the beginning of the cooperation between the company and the horizontal line.The two parties benefited from each other and made a lot of money together.Relying on Horizon's reputation, the popularity of Zhen Hao's company also increased a lot overnight.In addition, the overall level of Zhen Hao's company itself is also good, and gradually the business opportunities in the market are getting bigger and bigger.The orders received every day are enough for more than [-] people in the company to work for a long time.

Working overtime is a good thing. In the early stage of starting a business, I was most afraid of not being able to work overtime.So Zhen Hao is quite satisfied with his current life.

Zhen Hao was immersed in the busy life of receiving orders, so he naturally forgot some small details that he had neglected before.Work enriches life, and gradually allows Zhen Hao to regain his confidence.Zhen Hao began to enjoy the feeling now, and realized that he could still make a difference after leaving the army.

When he was just retired, the leader came to him once and gave him a document, saying that there was a good public job assigned to veterans, enough for him to support him for several lifetimes.But at that time, Zhen Hao experienced family changes and military career blows, and he was in a daze. He was too unconfident in himself, unwilling and unwilling to accept assignments, so he chose to stay at home temporarily until he could rely on his own strength one day in the future. Ability to make a comeback and start a family.

When Yang Bin first came to Zhen Hao and said that he wanted to start a business together, he really hesitated for a long time.Until he finally made up his mind, it was because he wanted Jing Feng to know that he was not a man willing to stay at home for the elderly all the time. He also longed to have his own career and to prove his abilities in front of his lover.

It seems that Zhen Hao made the right choice at that time.

And now Zhen Hao can finally raise his head and proudly introduce himself as the boss of XX company in front of others, instead of making a decision like before and hiding it, not daring to let the third person know.

Zhen Hao can have the current life, first of all, thanks to Yang Bin, who gave him the confidence to start his own business again.Second, I want to thank Yi Jingfeng for saving him from the loneliest day and giving him a warm and beautiful home.

It's just that the momentary sweet little success almost knocked Zhen Hao's head dizzy, making the next thing seem so unprepared.

It's just an ordinary weekend.

When Yang Bin called and asked Zhen Hao to check Weibo quickly, Zhen Hao was still washing vegetables in the kitchen and planning to cook lunch.Today is a rare rest day, Zhen Hao bought a few prawns, and planned to cook Yi Jingfeng his favorite seafood for lunch.

Yi Jingfeng was watching TV in the living room when Zhen Hao's cell phone on the coffee table rang suddenly.Zhen Hao was far away, so Yi Jingfeng reached out to answer the phone. Knowing that it was Yang Bin, Yi Jingfeng turned on the speakerphone, ran to the kitchen and called Zhen Hao to answer it.

Zhen Hao wiped his hands with his apron, took the phone: "What's wrong?"

"Look at the hot searches on Weibo, something has happened." Yang Bin's urgent and hoarse voice came from the microphone.

Zhen Hao was taken aback, while Yi Jingfeng took out his mobile phone knowingly, and opened the Weibo trending search. There was a news in the top ten that "Liu Yang from Horizon Studio was exposed to derailment in marriage".

Yi Jingfeng glanced at Zhen Hao, Zhen Hao's face turned dark, "Yang Bin, what's going on?"

"Damn it," Yang Bin gritted his teeth and said, "I knew that Liu Yang was not a good bird! Today a girl on Weibo posted an exposing long blog, explaining clearly how Liu Yang cheated the fans , and phone recordings! And I heard that it’s not just one or two female fans...Damn it, anyway, you should check it out first.”

After Yang Bin finished speaking, he hung up the phone, Zhen Hao's face sank, Yi Jingfeng quickly reacted, clicked on the trending search, browsed the contents, and also clicked on the Weibo homepage with the ID "Liu Hehe 23873" I watched the so-called "Scumbag cheating on stone hammer".

It turns out that since the year before last, Liu Yang has lied about being single, and invited many female fans out through Weibo, WeChat and other contact methods to meet, date, and finally have sex.In fact, Liu Yang has been married for a year and is still the father of two children.And the owner of this small Weibo account who was inexplicably killed by Xiaosan just killed his own child belonging to Liu Yang last month.A few innocent female fans only found out about this incident half a year ago. After confronting Liu Yang countless times to no avail, they finally decided to expose this scumbag on Weibo.

The long Weibo was written in a heart-wrenching manner, and the detailed evidence of derailment confirmed Liu Yang's crime.

As soon as the long Weibo was posted, it quickly received enthusiastic responses, and the number of retweets increased rapidly.The comment area has also gradually changed from the initial fan troop of abuse and slander against "Liu Hehe 23873" and his team to the analysis and neutral evaluation of rational netizens.And the audience in the hot search area is more of the people who are waiting for the next article to eat melons.

For a while, Weibo became a mess.Some took the opportunity to start poaching black fans who are the head of Horizon Studio Liu Yanghei’s historical research party, and there were elementary school student fans who were unbelievably unwilling to believe the facts and took a bite back.

Even, slowly, some Weibo netizens who didn't know the truth began to whisper whether there was any connection between Zhen Hao's company and this matter.

Yi Jingfeng was so angry that he almost scolded him for being mentally retarded without tearing up in the comment area.In the end, I held back, and then turned to the official blog of Horizon Studio and Liu Yang's personal blog. The comment area was blown up, but the update status still remained at yesterday.

Yi Jingfeng frowned, and began to realize that this matter was not that simple.Immediately looked at Zhen Hao worriedly: "Zhen—"

Zhen Hao just finished reading, and moved his gaze away from his mobile phone screen, and his expression became extremely gloomy in an instant.

Yi Jingfeng was suddenly speechless.

Zhen Hao's fists were clenched tightly, and he suddenly let go. As if he remembered something, he clicked on his phone's address book and dialed Liu Yang's phone number.

He has called this unfamiliar number three or four times because of work.But all without exception can not be connected.

This time too.

The bell rang for more than a minute, and finally a cold mechanical female voice came from the microphone.Before Zhen Hao could catch a word clearly, he cut off the call with his fingers.

Dial again.Still can't get through.

Yi Jingfeng's expression froze, and he persuaded with some hesitation: "Zhen Hao, you...don't worry..."

"I'm not in a hurry!?" Zhen Hao couldn't control his volume suddenly, he yelled and startled Yi Jingfeng, then quickly realized his impoliteness and calmed down, "I'm sorry—Jing Feng, can you leave me alone? Later?... Can you go and order a takeaway for yourself first?"

Yi Jingfeng had mixed feelings in his heart: "It's okay. I'll cook, you go first, don't worry about me."

Zhen Hao didn't look at Yi Jingfeng, hummed, then untied his apron and put it on the counter, turned around and left the kitchen.

Yi Jingfeng looked at Zhen Hao's hurried back, knowing that he hid in the study and was tangled up alone again.Yi Jingfeng sighed, remembering the panic that flashed in Zhen Hao's eyes just now, and knew that the problem this time was not so easy to solve.

Yi Jingfeng put on his apron, wondering if Zhen Hao would be okay in the study, and at the same time was distractedly frying the pot.Suddenly there was a rustling sound behind him, and Yi Jingfeng immediately turned around, only to find that it was Zhen Hao who had come out of the room.Just about to say: "Meal is almost ready—" Zhen Hao suddenly put on his suit jacket, glanced at Yi Jingfeng, and said, "Jingfeng, I'm going out for a while, you can settle your lunch, okay? "

The several ready-made dishes on the table immediately made the atmosphere a bit subtle and awkward. Yi Jingfeng's eyes darkened, and he said, "Well, I'm fine. Go and do your work. On the way...be careful."

Zhen Hao nodded, took his computer bag, opened the door and walked out without looking back.

73 Disappointed again

Zhen Hao went back to the company directly.

Yang Bin was also waiting in the conference room. When he saw Zhen Hao coming, he immediately stood up: "Brother Zhen."

Zhen Hao put the things away and said, "Have you contacted the contact person yet?"

"Not yet," Yang Bin looked at the phone screen, "Wu Ran is trying to find a way."

Zhen Hao sat down, turned on the computer, and frowned.

Yang Bin couldn't sit down anxiously, and paced back and forth in the meeting room: "Brother Zhen, now that their studio has released this scandal, it will definitely trigger a series of negative chain reactions..."

As soon as he opened Weibo, Zhen Hao noticed that the public opinion started to gossip about their company was getting louder and louder.

Some passers-by have already begun to point out that the horizontal line studio happened after joining Zhen Hao's company. The horizontal line studio and Zhen Hao's company usually seem to be so closely related. Is there a relationship of cover and connivance between the two?Zhen Hao's company is small in scale, so its reputation is not very high.As a new media company, it is much less competitive than its peers... In order to gain popularity by relying on the horizontal line, it chooses to turn a blind eye to the actions of Liu Yang, the person in charge of the horizontal line... Someone even picked out that Liu Yang and the company boss Zhen Hao have been together for ten years The relationship between old friends... From this point of view, Zhen Hao's company's usual interaction with fans on the Weibo platform is simply disgusting!

Netizens also began to analyze, saying that as a small [-]th-tier company, it does have the ability to support the level.Maybe the inside story of this company is really not small.Perhaps behind Liu Yang's personal grass powder behavior, there is a huge organization and industrial chain supporting him...

After all, what kind of decent gentleman can a benevolent father of a studio where a grass fan tricks Internet celebrities into being the captain?

Now the public opinion not only began to criticize Liu Yang and Horizontal Line Studio, but even Zhen Hao's company started to criticize together.And many of the so-called true fans of the Horizontal Studio spread rumors with their own mouths, driving the momentum and throwing the blame to Zhen Hao's company in one fell swoop.

Zhen Hao looked at the information on the Internet, his dark eyes were filled with disappointment.

Looking at Zhen Hao's livid face, Yang Bin became worried, but he didn't know how to comfort him.After a while, Wu Ran brought a message and finally got through to Wang Wei's phone!

Zhen Hao stood up immediately, took the mobile phone from Wang Wei, and said seriously, "Wang Wei."

Wang Wei picked out his ears: "Oh my god, big brother, you have been calling me since six o'clock in the morning, and the people in your company are so idle?"

"Tell your person in charge to answer the phone, I want to talk to him."

"Hey, I'm sorry, Brother Yang doesn't want to come out and run around in this turmoil right now."

"On the cusp of the storm?" Zhen Hao laughed angrily, and the corners of his lips curled up, "Are you obliged to explain to me what happened now?"

"Hey, buddy, I'm sorry." Wang Wei sighed, "It doesn't seem like this item is included in the contract we signed, right? This is Liu Yang's private life. What obligation do I need to explain to you?"

"you--"

"Hey, I have something else to do, I'm so busy. Hang up first, don't call me again if you have nothing to do, it's annoying."

After speaking, the other party directly hung up the phone.He left Zhen Hao with a series of busy tones, which kept echoing in his mind, deafening and painful.

Zhen Hao squeezed the phone tightly and looked at Yang Bin.Yang Bin's eyes were very complicated, as if he had expected it.A second later, he suddenly lost Zhen Hao's line of sight and turned his gaze elsewhere.

Zhen Hao's brows gradually wrinkled.

The worst situation that Zhen Hao imagined is happening. With more and more criticisms against the company on the Internet, the company usually accepts fewer and fewer projects... Life is difficult.In the end, three outstanding employees have chosen to quit.

Later, when Zhen Hao and Wang Wei met, Wang Wei put on a smiling expression, but he didn't provide any reliable information, instead he secretly mocked Zhen Hao.The look of disdain and cynicism are so eye-catching.

When Zhen Hao asked him what Horizon Studio wanted to achieve by cooperating with them,

Wang Wei said with a smile: "There is never a shortage of rubbish companies that are buried at the bottom but are eager to squeeze in to show their face. Do you know what I mean?"

When leaving, Wang Wei dropped a stack of banknotes with ease, as if to make up for the last teahouse bill: "Now we can talk about everything, don't come to me again, we are very busy, ok?"

In the next few days, Zhen Hao tried his best to find Liu Yang and have a direct interview with him—there were no results.Liu Yang is not an ordinary person, he is very smart, so smart that he paved the way for himself before the accident happened.After half a month, Zhen Hao realized that Liu Yang knew that the scandal of his deception would eventually be exposed, so they told Zhen Hao Company in advance, a small company that is still developing, with a clean record and no reputation, Signed the cooperation contract, and pretended to be adopted.In this way, if something goes wrong, they can quickly distract the fans' attack targets and attention, while still maintaining a state of making money, without worrying about no one daring to make an appointment.After all, it was emphasized in the contract that Horizon Studio has the right to participate in the production of Zhen Hao's photography projects.

In this way, Zhen Hao's small company has completely become a scapegoat. It's okay to be misunderstood and insulted by people on the Internet. The key is that the company's future future is easily destroyed like this.

In the future, who would dare to give the project to such a small company with a full record of criminal records?

But it was too late when he realized this, Zhen Hao had completely lost contact with the other party.

Social networks, communication machines, and even bank card consumption records—everything seems so insignificant when a person really wants to disappear from your eyes.

Zhen Hao sat in the office staring blankly at the computer screen full of abuse and dirty words. He had a lot of things to do, but his head was in a state of emptiness, unable to think or judge.

But there was a thought screaming in his heart: he didn't want to admit defeat.

I don't want to admit that I lost.I don't want to admit that such a self is still incompetent after all.

He was sitting in the office just now, but suddenly received an anonymous call.As soon as he picked it up, the other party said viciously: "Don't you feel disgusted when you do such a heartless thing!? Scum!"

Then snapped the phone off.

Zhen Hao even lost the courage to explain.

When he was about to leave work, Yang Bin saw Zhen Hao through the glass window, sighed, walked over and poured him a cup of coffee, knocked on the door, and asked softly, "Brother Zhen, are you tired? Let's get off work today."

Zhen Hao looked up at him, but there was no emotion in his eyes.

"...Brother Zhen." Yang Bin was a little worried about him.

"Yang Bin..." Zhen Hao lowered his head and put his palms together, the shadow hit his face, blurring his expression at the moment.

"You said, am I... really not suitable for business?"

"No..." Yang Bin sighed, "Brother Zhen, you've done a great job...it's our lack of experience."

Zhen Hao smiled: "Yang Bin, accompany me to a bar."

Sitting at the supper stand, Zhen Hao began to pour wine glass after glass.One for myself, one for Yang Bin.

Yang Bin suddenly remembered, when was the last time the two brothers sat and drank face to face like this?It seems that Zhen Hao's friend just came back, but the atmosphere today is quite different from that time.

Without saying a word, Yang Bin silently drank a few glasses of spirits with Zhen Hao.After a few rounds, he already felt a little intoxicated.

Zhen Hao suddenly smiled: "Yang Bin, I know you're feeling quite uncomfortable too. The current situation..."

Yang Bin glanced at Zhen Hao and sighed.

Zhen Hao poured another glass of wine for Yang Bin: "Are you... disappointed in me too?"

"No." Yang Bin shook his head lightly.

Then he looked at Zhen Hao, hesitantly said: "Brother Zhen, I know you have something on your mind, you can tell it. You know, I'm not used to you like this."

Zhen Hao smiled, and took a sip of the bitter alcohol with a pungent smell, "I just felt like I screwed up again. I felt pretty useless. And I... dragged you down."

Yang Bin raised his glass and clinked a glass with Zhen Hao, and drank heroically: "Brother Zhen, starting a business has never been smooth sailing. Since you have chosen this path, you must be prepared for the worst. This is not your fault, we There’s still a chance to come back.”

As soon as the words fell, Zhen Hao stared at Yang Bin for a long time, with something shining in his eyes, and after half his salary, Zhen Hao suddenly laughed out loud, as if he had suddenly realized something.

"what happened?"

"Yang Bin, you are really more capable than me, and you have a better mentality than me. You are more suitable to be a qualified boss than me."

"Bro Zhen……"

Zhen Hao poured himself a glass of wine, and his consciousness became a little hazy: "When this matter first started, you have always had doubts, but in the end it was me who made the decision to suppress your doubts..."

"Brother Zhen," Yang Bin's face turned pale, "I never thought of blaming you!"

Zhen Hao stretched out his hand, forgot to help Yang Bin fill it up, and drank a few glasses by himself.The smell of alcohol around him became more and more intense.

"I know." Zhen Hao stared at the wine glass in his hand, his eyes became a little sore, "I just feel...I'm pretty useless...I'm also worried about Jing Feng...I'm actually afraid that he will be disappointed in me too. "

"Brother...no way," Yang Bin anxiously pushed Zhen Hao's shoulder a few times, "Don't you know him? Brother must be on your side! Brother Zhen, don't do this !Come on, cheer up!"

Zhen Hao sighed, raised his head and exhaled, opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

The word "Sorry" smiled in the cold air.

It was another half an hour of drowsiness, drinking in silence, until the headache was about to split, the cold air eroded from his body, and he was caught when he couldn't hold it anymore, Zhen Hao finally opened his mouth.

"It's getting late, today... let's go back first." Zhen Hao stood up and bowed to Yang Bin, "Let's go.... Rest early."

Yang Bin frowned: "Brother Zhen!"
