Hearing Cheng Lang's ridicule, Meng Tianye took off his sunglasses uncomfortably, as if explaining: "I have been to Baiyujing, and they said that you are not going to work today on vacation."

So you came to the milk tea shop to find him?

Cheng Lang glanced at Meng Tianye, pulled out his chair and sat down, and asked Meng Tianye, "Do you want to try the milk tea in our shop?"

Meng Tianye frowned, a little disgusted: "I don't drink it. I don't like sweet drinks."

"It's all here." Cheng Lang snapped his fingers and signaled the clerk to make a cup of the special milk tea in the store: "Just help us promote our milk tea shop."

Meng Tianye snorted: "Then you have to do me a favor too."

Cheng Lang smiled and said, "Let's talk."

Meng Tianye looked at Cheng Lang and said nothing.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Lang grabbed a handful of pistachios on the table, and asked while eating: "Do you still need to brew your emotions and organize your words?"

Meng Tianye rolled his eyes and said, "You should know, right? I resigned from Bai Yujing and went to participate in the draft. Now that the competition has progressed to 50 to 30, the organizer approached me and said that if a player wants to enter the top ten in the country Strong, must sign a contract with the host company."

When Meng Tianye said this, he pursed his lips a little stubbornly: "I haven't decided yet, whether I want to sign or not."

The clerk delivered the prepared milk tea.Meng Tianye stared at the milk tea, and said quickly: "They will come to me tomorrow to discuss the signing of the contract. Can you go with me?"

Cheng Lang agreed immediately: "Okay."

"Ah?" Meng Tianye didn't react, and looked at Cheng Lang in a daze.

Cheng Lang repeated: "No problem."

Meng Tianye blinked, and suddenly asked: "You, aren't you curious and don't want to ask me why I came to you and asked you to go with me?"

"I've said it all, you help me promote the milk tea shop, and I'll do you a favor too." Cheng Lang smiled and said, "Equivalent exchange. It's fair."

Meng Tianye looked at Cheng Lang angrily, and he didn't know if he was angry or a little disappointed: "So you're really not curious?"

"No matter what your reason is, you came to me, and I am willing to help you. This is the fact." Cheng Lang said with a smile: "But if you are willing to share with me your mental journey, I will also listen."

Meng Tianye snorted coldly: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you."

"Remember what you promised me. At 12:30 noon tomorrow, I will wait for you at the Xingyuan Cafe opposite the X City TV station." Meng Tianye got up straight away as he said.Before leaving, he didn't forget to take the cup of milk tea that Cheng Lang gave him.

Looking at Meng Tianye's awkward back, Cheng Lang couldn't help but smile.

Shen Huaiyu came over and asked curiously, "Is there anything Meng Tianye wants from you?"

"It's the first time for a little boy to face the world of adults, and he feels a little uncertain. So he wants to find a little partner to help him strengthen his courage." Cheng Lang said with a smile.

"Then he really found the right person." Shen Huaiyu looked at Cheng Lang confidently, and said with some excitement: "My milk tea cream is ready. Do you want to try it?"

"Of course." Cheng Lang said with a smile: "I just ate too much fish and meat at night. Drink some milk tea to relieve the tiredness."

Hearing Cheng Lang's words, Shen Huaiyu asked by the way: "Is Mr. Qin's birthday banquet fun?"

"It's more than fun, it's so exciting." Cheng Lang said with a smile.

Shen Huaiyu was a little curious.Seeing that Cheng Lang didn't intend to continue, he didn't ask any more questions.Go to the back kitchen to get the tea-ordering utensils and order tea for Cheng Lang.

The newly developed milk tea paste is more delicate and moist than the previous semi-finished products.After the tea is ordered, the pattern is retained for a few minutes longer than the previous semi-finished product.The most important thing is that the tea soup is bright in color, silky and soft in taste, and there is a mellow and mellow tea fragrance in the faint milky fragrance. Drink it in one sip, the tea fragrance will overflow, and the lips and teeth will be fragrant.Taste carefully and there is a hint of sweet milky fragrance.Cheng Lang narrowed his eyes slightly and praised, "It smells so good."

"Isn't it delicious?" Shen Huaiyu looked at Cheng Lang with bright eyes: "I also made milk tea powder. The taste is not as delicate and moist as milk tea cream, and it may be sweeter and thinner. But the brewing method is simple , very convenient for takeout.”

Cheng Lang immediately said, "Let me try it."

"Wait for me." Shen Huaiyu ran back to the back kitchen with some excitement, made another cup of homemade milk tea powder, and hurriedly handed it to Cheng Lang.

Cheng Lang took a sip, and it sure tasted sweeter.The milk flavor is also stronger than milk tea paste.Shen Huaiyu explained: "Because the milk tea brewed from milk tea powder, the latte art is drawn directly with milk. Therefore, compared with the prepared milk tea cream, the taste will be sweeter. If customers are in a hurry to take out, they don't want latte art. If you want, you can also choose low-sweet milk tea."

"Our boss Shen has a very thoughtful idea. The methods of drinking tea you mentioned are really in line with the operating conditions of our milk tea shop..." Cheng Lang praised without hesitation.There were a lot of compliments, which directly made Shen Huaiyu blush.

"I've already started teaching Yanyan and the others how to make tea latte art." Shen Huaiyu said shyly with a blushing face, "Next, I will continue to develop other flavors of milk tea, and continue to improve milk tea paste and milk tea powder. taste, and strive to make better milk tea."

"Come on, I believe in you." Cheng Lang gave Shen Huaiyu two thumbs up: "But before doing new research and development, we still need to get the patents for milk tea cream and milk tea powder."

Upon hearing this, Shen Huaiyu immediately asked seriously, "What do you need me to do?"

"It's very simple. Don't be nervous." Cheng Lang looked at Shen Huaiyu who suddenly became nervous, and said with a smile: "We can just follow the steps."

Shen Huaiyu looked at Cheng Lang who seemed to be careless about any problems, and felt inexplicably at ease.

Early the next morning, Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu asked for leave to go to the Patent Office. They first processed and submitted some necessary application documents. The formulas of milk tea cream and milk tea powder were also filed.Near noon, Shen Huaiyu took a taxi back to school by himself, while Cheng Lang drove his Wuling Hongguang to the Xingyuan Cafe for an appointment.

It was exactly 12:30 noon when Cheng Lang arrived at the coffee shop, and Meng Tianye had already arrived.The brokerage company hasn't come yet.

Cheng Lang looked at Meng Tianye who was waiting for a cup of coffee to cool, and sat down opposite him: "How long have you been waiting?"

Meng Tianye hesitated for a moment: "I came over at twelve o'clock."

Cheng Lang asked again: "Have you had lunch yet?"

Meng Tianye shook his head.

Cheng Lang pressed the summons bell, and a waiter in uniform came over immediately.

Cheng Lang flipped through the menu and ordered a six-inch Black Forest cake, two sandwiches, and a fruit snack tray.Meng Tianye looked at Cheng Lang dully: "Can you eat so much?"

"Aren't you going to eat?" Cheng Lang looked at Meng Tianye, who was hesitating to speak, and said with a smile, "Don't worry. I'll treat you to this meal. Let's make do with some cake and sandwiches first. Find a restaurant for dinner after the talk."

Meng Tianye blushed: "Who wants to treat you? I can still afford a meal."

"Just treat it as if I'm asking someone to do something, and first treat the guests to dinner and bribe them." Cheng Lang said with a smile: "I searched the Internet yesterday and found that the talent show you participated in was quite popular. You registered on Weibo before the broadcast, and now They all have nearly [-] fans. Although they are not as famous as those popular players, they are still somewhat well-known. I would like to ask you to do a promotion for our milk tea shop."

Meng Tianye asked uncomfortably, "Have you seen my performance?"

"I've seen it." Cheng Lang said: "The four episodes lasted hundreds of minutes, and you can only show up for 10 minutes? It's harder for me to find you than to find a needle in the sea."

Meng Tianye couldn't help but said: "Actually, I sing quite well. However, the post-editing and editing allocated me a small number of shots. Many of those contestants are artists who have already signed contracts with the agency. They are supported by the agency, so naturally there are many shots. "

"There are many scenes in the show, and there are many drafts outside the show. They will come and talk about things, and the company will support them. So it's normal for people to have more fans and popularity than you." Cheng Lang concluded with a smile.

Meng Tianye became angry when he saw Cheng Lang's appearance: "Are you trying to anger me on purpose? Why do you only build up the ambitions of others and destroy the prestige of your own people?"

"Yoyo, are you angry?" Cheng Lang cut a piece of cake and handed it to Meng Tianye: "Come on, eat a piece of cake. Eating sweets can help regulate your emotions."

"I don't eat." Meng Tianye looked at Cheng Lang angrily: "Eating too much will make you look fat on camera."

"You're almost skinny like a monkey." Cheng Lang persuaded: "Eat more. We're going to be strong. If you're fat, you'll look stable."

Meng Tianye couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth, and immediately put on a straight face: "What do you mean? You mean I'm ugly and can't be an idol?"

"Who said you were ugly? How could our Bai Yujing's front card be ugly. The young man is cool and handsome, with eight-pack abs and mermaid lines!"

While Cheng Lang was talking, a man in a suit and leather shoes with sleek hair came over: "Hey, this is quite rich. Young people are different, they can enjoy it!"

Cheng Lang raised his eyes: "Who are you?"

The man was taken aback when he heard the words, and subconsciously glanced at Meng Tianye: "I am the manager of Star Entertainment Media, just call me Brother Zhang."

Cheng Lang looked at Meng Tianye: "This is the brokerage company you mentioned?"

Meng Tianye couldn't figure out what Cheng Lang meant, so he just nodded awkwardly.

Cheng Lang sneered, leaned on the deck, and crossed his legs: "It turns out that your agency is going to sign my buddies. Didn't you make an appointment to meet in the coffee shop at 12:30? Look at what time it is now? You guys?" Adults don’t have to keep time at work?”

Brother Zhang was stunned for a moment. He glanced at Cheng Lang and said with a half-smile, "You're pretty crazy at such a young age."

Cheng Lang said with a smile: "Crazy naturally has the capital of being crazy. Youth is capital. Being handsome is also capital. Being strong is capital. Being handsome and powerful at a young age, why can't you be crazy?"

"Okay!" Brother Zhang nodded: "It's interesting."

He took advantage of the situation and sat next to Meng Tianye: "What's the matter? We haven't started talking yet, give me a blow first?"

"Tell me the other way around." Cheng Lang twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with a smirk: "It's time to not show up, and deliberately leave us alone. You will arrive as soon as the dishes are ready, where are you going to sit?"

Hearing Cheng Lang's words, Meng Tianye's face changed.

Brother Zhang shook his head: "That's the wrong way to think. I was late because of the traffic jam on the road. I didn't mean to let you guys go on purpose. You are young, don't be so suspicious."

"Whatever." Cheng Lang said impatiently: "Didn't you say you want to sign a contract! Let's take a look at the contract."

Brother Zhang subconsciously looked at Meng Tianye.Meng Tianye looked like he was following Cheng Lang's lead: "Then let's look at the contract first."

Since Brother Zhang came here, he naturally brought a contract.But as soon as he showed up, the initiative was seized by Cheng Lang, and he was inevitably a little upset.He took out a contract from his bag and handed it to Meng Tianye: "Let's have a look. Our company is also very sincere. As long as you agree to sign the contract, more shots will be given to you during the show. Besides, there will be Contact you for business and other cooperation."

Cheng Lang waved: "Show me."

Meng Tianye handed the contract to Cheng Lang.Cheng Lang sat in the booth and patted the seat next to him: "Why are you sitting next to him? We are the same."

Meng Tianye was a little speechless, and got up and sat next to Cheng Lang.

After such a toss, Brother Zhang became more and more speechless.

Cheng Lang and Meng Tianye got together to review the contract. After 2 minutes, he raised his head and said, "Let's take a look first, we don't have time to take care of you. Order what you want to drink."

Brother Zhang originally wanted to order a cup of coffee, but when he heard this sentence, he was inexplicably depressed.I always feel that I ordered it after listening to Cheng Lang's orders.

The momentum was inexplicably weaker.

Brother Zhang took a deep breath, and as soon as he called the waiter, he heard Cheng Lang fuss and said, "The contract period is actually ten years? My God. Is this a contract of sale?"

"A [-]% share of the income? The copyright of the songs created by the artist during the contract period belongs to the company? The right to use is still up to the company to decide? That is to say, if we, Amano, don't want to work in your company one day, all the songs he created must stay in your company. .Even if he stays in your company. Whether he can sing the songs he created is still up to him. Can your company sing his songs for others? You even say that these songs were written by others. My buddy because of the contract Restrictions, you can’t say it. If you say it, it’s a leak of commercial secrets?”

Cheng Lang directly withheld the contract: "Is the boss of your company surnamed Zhou?"

Brother Zhang didn't expect Cheng Lang to be so familiar with the terms of the cooperation, so he immediately explained: "Don't just look at these, the company will also praise Amano after signing him. He will hold a concert for him, release an album, and even pick up business for him cooperate……"

"What scale concert, what budget album? What level of business cooperation? How many concerts per year? How many albums per year? Who is the producer of the album? Platform? Do you still have to sign the so-called pre-sale clause? It’s a garbage business that doesn’t pay the final payment until the amount is reached?”

Cheng Lang didn't even give Brother Zhang a chance to speak, and said directly: "Then I can pick him up too. I'm not as bad as you, and I don't have to split the bill with him. I'll hook him up to pick up the job, and we two brothers Fifty-five points will do."

Cheng Lang slapped the table: "I said that you have been negotiating this contract for a long time, and there is no benefit at all except flickering. By the way, I didn't have time to ask, what qualifications does your company have? How many years has it been established? How many celebrities have you brought out? Yeah? What resources are there? Can I receive the theme songs of movies and TV shows? If I have this resource, can it fall on my buddies? I think many singers are too poor to afford food now. They go to pick up business every day You can make money by performing tricks. I said that the business cooperation you talk about is not the same, right? A real estate company opens a market, a restaurant opens, and your singer is invited to sing a few songs. One song is worth 20 to [-] ?”

Brother Zhang looked at Cheng Lang who was done in one go, and suddenly lost his arrogance.
