As soon as Bo Yan appeared, Ms. Zhou's domineering attitude changed instantly. She couldn't figure out what the moody Teacher Bo meant, so she could only invite people in with a smile on her face, "Ms. Bo, I'm not just chatting with two children. Well, please sit down, please sit down!"
Bo Yan twitched the corners of his lips slightly, and said with a half-hearted smile, "Little friend? Since you know it's a child, Teacher Zhou shouldn't bully the child."
"That's impossible!" Ms. Zhou was taken aback, "Where did Mr. Bo say that hahaha..."
"Just kidding, Mr. Zhou, please sit down." Bo Yan also smiled, with a casual tone, "I just heard what Mr. Zhou said about firing CP?"
Ms. Zhou sat back in the office chair of the chief planner, and relaxed, "The effect of the program, Mr. Bo, you understand, don't young girls like this tune now! Pretending to fry CP, the traffic bonus that can be eaten is very good. big!"
But Jiang Yi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
He hated this feeling so much, it was like a commodity placed on a commodity shelf, which could only be promoted by the merchant, or bundled and discounted for promotion.
"I refuse-"
"Tang Ze?" As soon as he opened his mouth, Bo Yan interrupted him abruptly, "You want to stir up CP?"
"I... I just found out about this." The bewildered Tang Ze finally cleared his mind at this moment, hesitated and replied cautiously: "I don't have any ideas. .”
"There are no outsiders here, so I'll just say it straight. Jiang Yi and Tang Ze bundled up and fried CP. In the words of the fan circle, what is it called-one-to-one targeted poverty alleviation." Teacher Bo put away the expression on his face. Smiling, "I've seen the real number of votes backstage. The top nine and the bottom eight together can barely match him alone. May I ask you two, why is he firing this CP? Is he doing charity? In the future, it will be said that he relies on Did CP start a mess?"
When he spoke the last few words, his tone was already harsh.
Ms. Zhou was about to break out in a cold sweat at what he said, and smiled reluctantly: "You can't say that, Mr. Bo, if your popularity can go to a higher level, why don't you—"
"Didn't Director Yan tell you that I hate these crooked ways the most?" Bo Yan frowned in disgust, "Or did that AMO Entertainment stuff money for your program team?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the other two people changed.
Talent shows like "National Idol" are basically a game between the company's capital behind it. This is an unspoken rule that everyone in the industry knows well.
But to say it bluntly like Bo Yan is equivalent to slapping someone in the face unceremoniously on the spot.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Bo." With a young and handsome face, Tang Ze apologized a little at a loss, "I never thought of sucking Jiang Yi's blood, and I didn't expect Syrup CP to be so popular. What misunderstanding..."
"There's nothing that doesn't suck blood." Jiang Yi, who had been silent all this time, finally said, "There's no need to say it so harshly."
Ms. Zhou was overjoyed, "Then Jiang Yi, what do you mean?"
"Jiang Yi!" Bo Yan didn't expect that he would speak up to defend the other party, and he was furious, and couldn't control the volume for a while, "What did you say?"
"Why are you yelling?" Jiang Yi yelled back with a cold face.
Tang Ze had a heart attack, and immediately prepared himself to bear Teacher Bo's anger alone, and even wanted to rush over to stop Jiang Yi.
However, in the next second, Teacher Bo's tone softened, "I didn't yell at you. Don't rush to talk, can we find a place to chat?"
Tang Ze and Ms. Zhou looked at each other, a little puzzled.
Teacher Bo is this? ? ?
"I have nothing to talk to you about." Jiang Yi bowed to Ms. Zhou with a stern face, "I don't target anyone, I don't want to have any behaviors that tie up business and speculate on CP. If my fans like me , I hope they are because of my strength."
After all, regardless of other people's reactions, he turned around and walked out of the office, leaving behind a few people with different thoughts.
It was night, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the 38th-floor high-end apartment, a tall and long-legged man looked down indifferently on the brightly lit night view of the city below.
"...Boss, I'm your manager alone, right? Why do you want me to do this kind of thing?" The phone on the table was on speakerphone, and the voice from inside seemed very helpless.
"What is the most important duty of a manager?" Bo Yan asked back, and before the other party could speak, he asked himself and answered: "Solve the boss's worries and problems, and now the boss needs you."
"No, the key question is, what identity do I have to negotiate? Ren Jiang doesn't care about you, why should I represent him to negotiate with the program team?"
"His brokerage contract will come to you sooner or later, shouldn't you familiarize yourself with the business in advance?" Bo Yan was indifferent, "When I settle everything that needs to be solved here, I will buy even the rags of Jumei Era .Your task now is to negotiate with the program team. No matter who this program is going to praise or sacrifice to the heavens, you are not allowed to touch anything related to Jiang Yi."
What kind of nonsense to speculate on CP, what kind of nonsense capital game, what he was reluctant to do back then, who would dare to try it under his nose?
"Then what should I say? Jiang Yi is covered by our boss?"
"You don't have to speak so bluntly, those people understand very well in their hearts. Be especially careful not to let Jiang Yi hear any bad rumors." Bo Yan became a little impatient as he spoke, "I have to do everything myself. , what use do you need?"
"I—" Guan Hang wanted to talk back subconsciously, but after thinking about his salary, which is the best in the industry, he still endured it.
Just when Bo Yan was about to hang up the phone, the avatar suddenly remembered something, "Wait a minute, boss! The old man called yesterday, saying that the old man's health is getting worse and worse, and he has been thinking all day that he wants you to see him." Look at him, do you think you have a schedule?"
Bo Yan raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, "Where's the other one?"
"Very stable." Lying on the hospital bed steadily.
"There's nothing going on with Second Uncle, right?"
"There is no big movement, even your elder brothers are quite worried. The things of the older generation are only cleared up, and the younger generation starts to fight with each other. It's really interesting." The words are so As I said, Ke Guan Hang's voice sounded a little gloating.
"Don't worry about them, I've already got what I want." Bo Yan's voice was emotionless, "Go back sometime."
"Also, those two former teammates of yours have already been dealt with. Do you see the two that are still in the team?"
As soon as this was mentioned, Bo Yan instantly had a headache, "Don't do anything for now, I'll think about how to tell Yao'er."
As soon as this matter was mentioned, it was all pulled out, including the car accident he had.
Can Yao'er bear it for a while?Will it affect his game state?He couldn't help worrying about these problems over and over again.
However, what he did not expect was that this day would come so soon.
In the rehearsal for the second performance a few days later, the rehearsal effect of You Chengxi's Vocal group was extremely poor, and the whole group was criticized by several instructors. Accidentally fell off the stage.
Everyone present was terrified, and Jiang Yi, who was off the stage, immediately realized, "Brother Cheng Xi!"
He quickly walked around to the back of the stage, wanted to pull him up but didn't dare to move, so he could only half kneel on the ground and asked anxiously: "Brother Cheng Xi, how are you? Can you still move?"
Seeing You Chengxi curled up on the ground in pain and unable to speak, he immediately turned his head and shouted at the staff: "Call 120! Find an ambulance!"
The others also reacted and rushed forward, surrounding You Chengxi in the center.
The memory of falling from the stage last time suddenly came to mind, Jiang Yi could not help but shudder, "Brother Cheng Xi, don't be afraid, it's okay..."
"Get out... get out! Jiang Yi, don't be hypocritical here!" You Chengxi swung his hand away abruptly, staring at him with undisguised hatred, "I am the happiest when I fell like this!" Isn’t it you? Now no one is holding you back, and you are back with revenge!”
As soon as the voice fell, everyone at the scene seemed to have been pressed the pause button.
The expression on Jiang Yi's face changed from astonishment to stiffness, with a bit of worry that he didn't have time to take back, his whole body froze into a stone.
"Brother Cheng Xi!" Yan He finally squeezed in and hugged You Chengxi who was on the ground, "He broke his head and started talking nonsense, is the ambulance here?"
The others went down the steps he gave, pretending not to hear anything, and started yelling again.
Jiang Yi blinked her eyelashes slowly, and pulled herself out of the petrified state.
The ambulance came quickly, and the paramedics carried You Chengxi onto the stretcher, and the other three members of Hots got into the ambulance together.
The examination results showed that the right pelvis and right leg were fractured, and there were multiple contusions all over the body. Fortunately, no spinal nerves were injured.
Several people sat in the corridor of the hospital waiting for the operation to end, and then followed the cart into the ward.
You Chengxi's anesthetic hadn't taken effect yet, and he was still in a coma, but Jiang Yi didn't come back to his senses until now.
"Yan He, come out." He called out in a low voice.
Yan He hesitated for a moment, then followed behind him silently.
"You and brother Cheng Xi have always been close. Has something... happened to him recently?" Jiang Yi's expression was quite confused, "What did he mean to me just now?"
Yan He still didn't dare to look directly at him, and said, "It's nothing...don't take it to heart, he might have really broken his brain..."
Jiang Yi shook his head, "Forget it, it's useless to ask you, I will ask him when he is better."
Not long after, You Chengxi woke up on the hospital bed.
"Brother Cheng Xi!" Zheng Yuxuan leaned forward with a look of surprise, "Are you okay?"
"Can I...can I still dance on stage?" The first thing I said when I woke up was to ask the stage.
Zheng Yuxuan patted his chest and assured, "Yes, yes! Brother, don't worry! It's just a normal fracture, and it will recover soon!"
You Chengxi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that there was nothing serious about people, Jiang Yi also felt relieved, and decided to go back to Dachang to continue the rehearsal.
After all, his crew was waiting for him, and he couldn't just abandon them irresponsibly.
"Jiang Yi." Just as Jiang Yi turned around, You Chengxi behind him suddenly called out to him.
He stopped.
"My brain is not broken, I am sober." You Chengxi said word by word, "I have always thought you are disgusting, even more disgusting than Bo Yan—"
With a loud bang, the door of the ward was kicked open.
Bo Yan with a gloomy face appeared at the door, first gave Jiang Yi a comforting look, then turned into a cold knife that killed people without blood, and stabbed directly at the person on the hospital bed, "You Chengxi, it seems that you are planning to be a villain." Have you filed a complaint first?"
The author has something to say: here we come!Don't be afraid, Zai Zai will make it through!
I was stuck on the road for two hours today, and the train was 84 minutes late. It was difficult to finish the code, and I was determined not to be a puppy~
