After same-sex marriage was legal, we left [entertainment circle]

Two weeks later, the annual final of "Best Singer" was held in the stadium with [-] people, which was unprecedentedly grand.The program team invited the biggest names in the circle, almost turning the finals into an annual celebrity carnival.Regardless of the music circle, film and television circle or the fashion circle, all the famous figures are invited, but they really can't match the hot and popular figures, so the program team named them "Cheering Angels" to cheer for the finalists.

As a mentor, Bai Zhe naturally wanted to sing on stage.He specially put on Valentino's high-end suit this summer, and also brought a microphone of his own.When he walked out of the dressing room and was about to go on stage, he saw the noise at the end of the corridor, and a group of people walking towards him.Bai Zhe took a step back into the room, trying to make way for someone, but when he got close to him, he realized that the person surrounded by heads was Ji Qinzhang.

Ji Qinzhang also saw him.

After Ji Qinzhang left that night, Bai Zhe only sent a WeChat message the next night asking him what he wanted to do when he came to see him.He didn't reply, so Bai Zhe didn't ask.Today was the first meeting between the two since that night. Bai Zhe was open-minded and only had a smile on his face, but Ji Qinzhang walked straight towards him.

No one in the circle knew about Mr. Ji's thoughts on Bai Zhe. When Ji Qinzhang was standing next to Bai Zhe, no one around him dared to surround him.Not only did they not dare to surround them, but they all wanted to plug their ears so as not to hear something they shouldn't hear.In fact, there is nothing that should not be heard, the two of them are just gossip.

Mr. Ji is one of the few big donors in the circle, it is a great honor for the program team to invite him.Ji Qinzhang stood beside Bai Zhe, sized him up from head to toe, and said with a smile, "Martin's new work?"

He was talking about the clothes on Bai Zhe, and Bai Zhe also looked down at himself, and said, "His new work this season is not bad."

"He had a new product launch event at the end of October, and he gave me two invitation letters, asking me to go with you. How about it, do you have time?" Ji Qinzhang asked.

Bai Zhe was noncommittal and teased him: "Martin wants to ask me to go, why didn't he send the invitation directly to me?"

Ji Qinzhang's face was as usual, and he answered the conversation fluently and naturally: "Maybe he sees that you are busy as a judge recently, so he doesn't dare to disturb you?"

Bai Zhe smiled lightly: "I have a concert in October, and I'm afraid it will be very busy, so I'm sorry, I can't go, please help me and apologize to Martin." He stepped out of the door, "I'm sorry, I I'm going to wait, I'll contact you another day."

He left without looking back, walked a few steps, but heard Ji Qinzhang calling him behind him.

"Xiaobai," Ji Qinzhang said, "are you so polite when talking to me now?"

Bai Zhe frowned, expressing that he didn't understand what Ji Qinzhang meant, and left vaguely.

Turning around the corridor, he bumped into a dark figure head-on.

Heiying is wearing Dior's new custom-made suit today, and a pair of pointed black leather shoes on his feet, which is a bit like a hippie in the 70s and [-]s.He didn't know how long he had stood at the corner and listened secretly, Bai Zhe could still imagine his expression of gnashing his teeth and being filled with righteous indignation when he closed his eyes.Bai Zhe bumped into his arms, but he even remembered to reach out to give him a hand.Bai Zhe smelled the unique scent of cologne on his body, raised his head, and met the man's mocking smile.

"A date?" Du Zixiao said sourly, "October?"

"Crazy." Bai Zhe scolded.

Du Zixiao had just stepped down from the stage, so he had to hurry back and change his clothes before returning to the judges' seat.Who would have thought that he happened to see this scene, so he didn't care about changing his clothes, and followed Bai Zhe to the stage.

"Why can't you be polite when talking to him?" Du Zixiao said, "Do you know him that well? Why should you talk to him so affectionately?"

Bai Zhe ignored him.

Du Zixiao continued to follow behind and murmured: "Why did Martin hold the press conference and asked you to go with Ji Qinzhang? Why didn't he ask us to go together? Does he read entertainment news? Does he use Weibo? Do you know? Recently, instead of firing Luo Bai, CP started to fire Du Bai? What is his Weibo, I will add him to follow, I love him every day..."

Du Zixiao's thoughts were boundless. Bai Zhe was so quarreled with him that he wanted to get rid of him, but it was a pity that he had only an assistant with a combat power of five at his side, so he couldn't get rid of him.Fortunately, Xiao Gui appeared out of nowhere in Xie Li, and Bai Zhe hurriedly shouted: "Xiao Gui!"

"Here!" Xiao Gui looked at him and smiled, and shouted excitedly, "Teacher Bai!"

His gaze moved to the side, and his smile grew bigger: "Du Zixiao, didn't you go back to the dressing room to change?"

Bai Zhe obviously felt Du Zixiao shrank beside him.

"I'll give you 2 minutes~" Xiao Gui's smile became more and more exaggerated, as if he wanted to eat people, "If you can't change your clothes after 2 minutes and you can't sit on the judging table, I will..."

Du Zixiao slipped away with a "whoosh".

Bai Zhe thanked Xiao Gui endlessly: "Thanks for having you."

The female Xiaogui patted her flat chest, and said heartily, "Mr. Bai, you're welcome. This is what you should do." After finishing speaking, she lowered her head, glanced at both sides mysteriously, and asked in a low voice, "However, Du Zixiao said When he goes to America to film, you will go with him and remarry by the way, is that true?"

Bai Zhe: "..."

So after taking the stage, the first line Bai Zhe sang was successfully out of tune.

The live broadcast of the finals lasted for two and a half hours. In addition to the championship, runner-up and third place, the most popular male and female singers, the most potential male and female singers, and the most breakthrough male and female singers were selected according to online voting. Students are rewarded.Although Luo Pinfang failed to be the champion, he won the most popular male singer trophy.Ten minutes later, after the tense online real-time voting session, his junior sister, Bai Zhe Group No.10, won the title of "Best Singer".

So far, the three-month blockbuster annual music talent show "Best Singer" has come to an end, and Bai Zhe has become a well-deserved champion mentor.

On the third day after the competition, Du Zixiao boarded the flight to the United States.

The news that Du Zixiao participated in the new film of a famous Hollywood director was very sensational, not only because the director was good and the team was good, but also because Du Zixiao's role was no longer soy sauce, but a solid male third with plenty of roles.A well-known film critic even said that the Chinese artists who went to Hollywood in the past were just soy sauce so that they could make money from their compatriots. If you mess with your head, you might be able to make a fortune for the Chinese in Hollywood.That film critic is very prestigious in the circle, and he is famous for not charging money and daring to scold.As soon as he spoke out, other film critics in the industry also voiced their support, which made Du Zixiao feel a little confused, and asked Xiaogui foolishly if this was called flattery.

Bai Zhe originally planned to go to the airport to see him off in person, and the time was free early in the morning, but Du Zixiao called him the night before he left and told him not to go.Du Zixiao babbled on the other end of the phone, saying that he was tired from reading scripts in the past few days, and then viciously told him to stay away from that beast Ji Qinzhang, but he refused to explain why he was not called Bai. Zhe went to see off the plane.

But Bai Zhe understood.

Du Zixiao was afraid that he would go, so he was reluctant to leave.

Two months, whether it is long or short, but for Du Zixiao now, it is really difficult.He had just tasted a little bit of sweetness from Bai Zhe and wanted more, but at this moment he was forcibly thrown to the other side of the earth, which was tantamount to torture.Bai Zhe didn't know how to comfort him. In fact, he himself was in a mess, sad and reluctant.However, both of them are adults, and their feelings often have to give way to reality, not to mention that they will never come back again, so Bai Zhe comforted Du Zixiao and agreed to him.

I really didn't send it the next day.

Poor Du Zixiao was waiting at the airport, until he got on the plane, he was still waiting for Bai Zhe to surprise him by appearing suddenly.After confirming that the neighbors were all strangers, and it wasn't Bai Zhe who was wearing a mask and sitting in the back seat waiting for the plane to take off, he frightened himself, his spirit completely withered.

Seeing his pitiful appearance from the side, Xiao Gui said half distressed and half helpless: "It's not because you didn't let Teacher Bai come."

"Then he really won't come?" Du Zixiao muttered softly, twirling the tips of his two index fingers, "Unhappy, unhappy, unhappy..."

Xiao Gui slapped her across the face: "Don't be so cute, you're the only one who has a lot to do!"

At the same time that Du Zixiao's plane landed, Bai Zhe also started a new job.

Although "Best Singer" has come to an end, the cooperation between Bai Zhe and the program team has just begun.According to the agreement signed earlier, Bai Zhe's record company became the only record partner of the program group, fully responsible for the contestants' records and performances.This is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the development of the record company. It can be said that as long as everything works normally, Bai Zhe's company will grow rapidly in the next year and become a leader in the industry in a short time.

Bai Zhe was busy with work during the day, but before going to bed at night, he developed a fixed habit of opening WeChat to see what Du Zixiao sent today.Although the director asked the actors to cut off all contact with the outside world after joining the group, there are very few people who can actually do this. Everyone just pretends to coax the director.Du Zixiao strictly abided by the rules at first, until one day he found out that the heroine was secretly arguing with her boyfriend on the phone, and was surprised to find out that Americans are also playing tricks.

So he used WeChat to send Bai Zhe a message every now and then when he was free.These messages are not fixed, sometimes there are several a day, with photos, audio, and small videos, and sometimes one message for several days, and the content is short and text messages.Bai Zhe would open it every day before going to bed, and answer him a few words. Sometimes he was too sleepy, and fell asleep after answering the answer. When he woke up the next day, he found the phone was tightly hugged in his arms, just like before when the two fell asleep together. It was as if he was holding Du Zixiao's arm.

By coincidence, when Bai Zhe went back, Du Zixiao happened to be online.The two of you have one and one, and Bai Zhe asked him how dare you play with your phone, not afraid that the director will find out?Du Zixiao said that he was not afraid, that the director was sleepy and was trying to catch up on sleep.After saying this sentence, it didn't count, and then sent another one.

"Want to see the sleeping face of an international famous director? I'll take a picture for you!"

After a while, a photo came over.In the photo, Du Zixiao held up his mobile phone with one hand, looked down at a 45-degree angle, put his other hand on his cheek, and made a "yeah" gesture.Behind him, the famous international director was lying back on the recliner, his chest was covered with a nap blanket, and he was fast asleep with his mouth half open.

Bai Zhe stared at the photo and laughed for a while, then realized something was wrong.

He stretched out two fingers, pressed on the screen, zoomed in, zoomed in...

Oh my god, the director's eyes are open!

The director is awake!

Bai Zhe's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly sent a message to Du Zixiao: "How are you?"

Three days later, Du Zixiao returned.

Concise and concise three words, text information is not voice.

"Alive."

One month has passed so quickly, Bai Zhe's record company is working on multiple projects at the same time, not only preparing for Bai Zhe's October solo, but also working while the iron is hot, preparing new singles and albums for the popular contestants of "Best Singer" , there is also a previously signed rookie album that has been produced and is being released as a whole.Seeing that the situation is going well, on this day, Cheng Lin brought bad news to Bai Zhe.

"There is a gap in our funds now," Cheng Lin said, "Even if we can support the release of the new album, I am worried that subsequent projects will be affected."

Bai Zhe was looking at the financial statements in the office at the time, and saw the problem Cheng Lin mentioned.He looked at the account from top to bottom, frowned and said, "Xu Yifu's funds haven't arrived yet? Isn't it supposed to arrive last month?"

"He has been playing sloppy with us, saying that the account will arrive soon, but it has never arrived. Recently, I couldn't help contacting him, but it turned out that his number was empty." Cheng Lin stood at the desk Before, with an anxious look on his face.

Bai Zhe frowned slightly.His early cooperation with Xu Yifu was very pleasant, and Xu Yifu also invested a lot of money.Based on what he knew about Xu Yifu, he was a businessman, and a businessman made huge profits. How could he withdraw in such a way that he disappeared out of thin air when he had not yet returned his investment?

Is he rich enough to spend such a large sum of money for nothing?

Bai Zhe didn't believe it, he picked up his phone: "I'll try."

He quickly dialed the number, and after a while of silence, a mechanical and rigid female voice came from the phone.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is an empty number..."

Bai Zhe's heart sank slightly.

He raised his head, and Cheng Lin happened to be looking at him too.Anxiety and fear were rarely seen in the eyes of this calm female manager, as if Bai Zhe's phone call had ruined her last hope.

"I asked many friends to find Xu Yifu, but no one could find him." Cheng Lin's voice was full of unconcealable fear, "Mr. Bai, Xu Yifu is our biggest investor. If he disappears, The consequences are very serious."

The record company is advancing many projects at the same time, and every step of the advancement needs money. Now the fund gap in the book is very large. Cheng Lin said it very conservatively. In fact, after barely finishing the promotion of the new album, does the company still have It is a problem to promote other projects with money. The record and performance agency rights of the popular students of "The Best Singer" are very popular, and there are plenty of people who want to grab them. Once bad news comes out from Bai Zhe, the agency rights may change hands at any time; In the tense preparation, although the advertising sponsorship took back most of the investment, it was not impossible for the advertiser to question the ability of Bai Zhe Company and then withdraw the sponsorship once the record company had problems.

More importantly, Xu Yifu is the largest investor in the record company, and his disappearance may affect the attitude of other investors.The record company's expenses are huge, and Bai Zhe can't support it alone. Even if it is strong, how long can it last?

At that time, the follow-up progress of the project cannot keep up, and the initial investment will be in vain. There is only one way left for Bai Zhe's record company, and that is——

Bankrupt.
