I'm just sorry for plagiarism

Although Li Xia didn't understand what Lao Wang was up to in the end, but maybe he was disturbed by the exam papers that covered the sky. In the end, Li Xia actually forgot the agreement with Lao Wang after school.

As the bell rang after school, seeing Lao Wang running away in a hurry, the eldest lady didn't care, she just thought it was this guy who went on a date with Zhang Ruoyi again, yawned happily and left the school gate.

Today, we made a dinner appointment not far from the school, which is of great significance. It was the first official contact between Lu Ranyu and the Dream Band.

Even Cheng Qiqi was called over. After all, in terms of identity, Cheng Qiqi regarded it as a contract signed with Roller Entertainment and registered with Brother Hua and the others.In the end, how to choose in the future, whether to choose to fly solo or continue to be involved in Mengyuan Fishery with the Menglai band, all of this has to be decided by herself.

When he came to the entrance of the restaurant through several turns, Li Xia was taken into a private room following the guidance of the waiter.It was already filled with steaming hot food, although it was simple, but the fragrance was overflowing, but it couldn't be resisted.

A group of people, Brother Hua, and the four members of the band, as well as Cheng Qiqi and Lu Ranyu were already sitting upright. They were still chatting about something, but seeing Lixia push the door in, the noise suddenly faded away.Everyone turned their attention to the youngest girl in the crowd.

"Why are you doing this? You should eat and drink, and it's not my decision today." The eldest lady smiled dumbfounded and waved her hands.

That's right, I didn't sign a contract with Roller Entertainment, and I wasn't a co-investor of Mengyuan Fishery. When the two sides negotiated a contract, my words didn't carry much weight, right?

It's just that Brother Hua doesn't think so. If it wasn't for the support of Li Xia's classic tunes, I'm afraid their dream band would have disbanded long ago, right?

When the drinks were brought up, the banquet was considered to be open.

Most of them were familiar courtesies. Brother Hua didn't speak, but Lu Ranyu stood up and filled a glass for himself, and then leaned over, "You are Brother Hua from Menglai Band. I have admired you for a long time, your song is very It sounds good, my niece has always liked your voice."

Brother Hua murmured in his heart.

When I debuted, I probably played the guitarist of the band and was responsible for playing instruments. When did I pick up the microphone?

But he still shook it with a smiling face, "Manager Lu, hello, hello, I've heard of your name for a long time. The fish you raise are also very delicious, and the old company's back kitchen often talks about you."

Lu Ranyu's face turned blue when he said something. Although the company was named Mengyuan Fishery, in fact, he had nothing to do with the so-called wholesale of aquatic products. He just used the company's registered name to trouble Huazhou. It's just the entertainment industry.

Seeing the two guys looking at each other, Li Xia chuckled silently at the side, the fake friendship of adults.It's really interesting.

The superficial politeness is almost done, and both sides are not idle, and start to enter the formal topic.

It was nothing more than the issue of job-hopping in the brokerage company. If Lu Ranyu was in a cloud like last time, I am afraid that he would not be able to finish the conversation after the food was finished.

He simply picked a few key questions to ask, such as how Hua Ge and the others stayed in the old company, how they were paid, whether they had obtained promotional resources, etc., all of which were very practical, and even a little fruitless.

But facing these unbearable past events, Cheng Qiqi seemed to be a normal person, huddled in the corner with Li Xia, eating the dishes on the table one bite at a time.

Kung Pao Chicken and Braised Potatoes are all very good delicacies.The primary school girl didn't seem to stop at all, and in the blink of an eye, the small bowl in front of her was piled up on a small mountain of meat.

"Can you be more reserved, at least you are a college student." The eldest lady rested her hand on her chin, looked at the wolf-hunting elementary school girl, and couldn't help sighing.

I don't know if it's because the film crew worked too hard for the filming or the military training exhausted too much physical energy. I haven't seen her for a long time, but the elementary school sister has lost a lot of weight.

A few days ago, I couldn't see it in the dark in the KTV, but now it's clear at a glance.

The elementary school sister didn't have time to talk, she swallowed the food that was bulging in her mouth, then smacked her lips, and said vaguely, "It's been hard work!"

I don't know if it refers to the crew or the university.

Many people believe in one sentence, that is, high school is tight, and college will be loose, but in fact it is very different.For example, the key one that Cheng Qiqi passed the exam, the culture classes are full on weekdays, and there is almost no room for leisure.

"If you can come over, in addition to the breach of contract fee, we will also give you this amount of remuneration and resource subsidies." Back at the dinner table, the negotiations over there are about to reach the most critical stage.

Hua Gebi's number seems to be quite a lot, and the most critical issue is that the contract in February last year lasted for three years, and the contract with Roller Entertainment in February next year will be renewed, that is, It means that starting from February next year, the Menglai Band is about to usher in their own transfer period.

What's more, judging from the current construction progress of Mengyuan Fishery, Lu Ranyu is not in a hurry in less than half a year, and can wait until the contract expires before buying the artist.You will also save a lot of money in your hands.

But he still insisted on paying the liquidated damages in advance, maybe it was to make both parties look better, although it is not a glorious thing to break the contract at the end of the contract, but when the time comes, the old family does not renew the contract, and no one wants it. is a disgrace.

And judging from the current popularity of the Dream Band and the cusp of the past three years, the possibility of not being renewed when the contract expires is not impossible, and the probability is even very high.

Hearing this sentence, Brother Hua's heart seemed to be slightly touched.

They are grassroots, and only after entering the circle have they discovered how deep and bottomless the pool of water they once dreamed of is.

I don't have any background, except for a few popular songs that are still eye-catching, even the fame is much poorer than those rich second-generation children who piled up money. It is precisely for this reason that the Dream Band is in In the drum entertainment, it has always been only used as a shield.

But now, there is a person who is willing to regard their self-esteem as a relatively important matter. Can this prevent Brother Hua from being in a daze?

What's more, the subsidies and resources are indeed quite generous.

For a moment, a slight ripple appeared on Renhua's sophisticated face, as if hesitating.

He glanced at Cheng Qiqi, then at Lixia who was sitting beside her.

Can not help but sigh.

Maybe in the future we really have to settle down on our own.

Cheng Qiqi is better than Brother Hua and the others, and has been filming a few small reality dramas recently. Although the popularity is not very good, it is not like Brother Hua and the others, whose future is bleak.

What's more, with the development of the filming progress, at least she can get some remuneration herself, which is indeed relatively lower than Lu Ranyu's remuneration. Don't forget that Manager Lu's remuneration is the total of the five of them. Quantity.

The average amount of money allocated to each person is definitely not as rich as Cheng Qiqi's. In such a comparison, even a fool would know how to make a choice, right?

It's just that they debuted together at the beginning.

The wind has also been experienced, and the rain has also been tasted.

If such a lively and pleasant girl is missing in the band, I always feel that some soul is lacking.

"How do you choose?" The eldest lady also looked at Cheng Qiqi who was eating sullenly.

This guy's mouth is still exactly the same as before, with two raised cheeks, like a little hamster that is about to prepare food for himself for the winter.

Just wait until the last swallow.

Only then did she change from her usual hippie smile.

He nodded at Lu Ranyu.

Look serious.

"Then let's go together."

This proposal naturally surprised everyone present.

Even the eldest lady was surprised by this decision.

The so-called chicken head is better than phoenix tail.But although Cheng Qiqi didn't pay much attention in the company, and was said to be a phoenix tail, it wasn't quite appropriate.

There are as many small groups of artists who are more miserable than her and can't get resources. At least she is better than others, and occasionally receives invitations from other crews.And it wasn't the primary school sister's clear and beautiful voice that those directors had their eyes on.

That is to say, she still retains the characteristics that are enough to attract people's attention. Life is so long, and one day she will shine in a big company.

Although this road to success is quite sad, along the way, she will be ridden in the face by veteran artists with backgrounds better than her, or framed, but at the very least, she still has the hope of becoming famous.

"It's just that I think that sometimes, instead of chasing after a hope that is so small that it can't be ignored, it's more realistic to look for what's right now."

When Cheng Qiqi said this, Li Xia thought it was this girl who was a money fan and committed another crime.After all, the liquidated damages fee is quite high, as long as it is delayed until February next year, the money does not need to be handed over to Roller Entertainment.

Unexpectedly, there was a pause, this elementary school girl who had never been upright, but leisurely looking at the scenery outside the window lost her mind, and muttered something softly.

"A girl once said that Cheng Qiqi was the pride of Sanhuai."

"So, as the pride of Sanhuai, how can she let those rumors ride on her head?"

Li Xia was slightly taken aback, but the primary school sister turned her leisurely eyes and looked at the crowd and clenched their fists, "I think it's time for them to pay back what Roller Entertainment owed us."

Previously, Menglai Band was regarded as the object of transfer of fans' hatred, and it has been broken by various people in the circle, causing panic.

But in order to preserve the reputation of the top player Zhou Qiluo, Roller Entertainment did not sell to interfere in that fan scolding battle.Even at the end, the behavior became more and more excessive, and even sat and watched behind the scenes, inviting the water army to make waves in the already muddy pool.

As for the Menglai Band and Cheng Qiqi back then, because of the contract, it was difficult to face up to their backgrounds and explain anything.

But now, if the family changes to another company, many properties will be different.

In a word, the reason is simple and transparent.

However, the band members present were silent, their eyes slightly opened, as if they were deep in thought.

reveal the truth?

The scene fell into silence for a while.

Chapter 24, Chapter 24, To Alice

The next dinner table turned into a clichéd scene.

Now that things were almost discussed, Lu Ranyu was naturally not stingy, and asked the waiter to add a few signature dishes.They are all the kind of special expensive and delicate dishes, although they are not very delicious, but they are full of temperament when they are placed on the table.

"Don't, don't, don't." Brother Hua was a little flattered, and waved his hands again and again, but the other party looked obviously drunk, hugging Renhua, who was a full round older than him, and yelled that it was better to play brothers.

It was noisy, but the atmosphere was high.

Just between tossing and toasting, those members of the Menglai band still couldn't help sneaking a look at this little lead singer with surprise and admiration.

It has to be said that artists who can do this in order to win a breath... are indeed quite a few.

After all, which girl who set foot in the entertainment circle is not for the fan effect that echoes everywhere?Who is not envious of this high salary?

But Cheng Qiqi is willing to give up her future film salary and share the joys and sorrows with the Dream Band. This persistence is really touching.

However, revenge on the old family?

This idea is really crazy.

There are not a few disputes in the market due to contract issues, but Roller Entertainment has a strong foundation, but all deeds that can be suppressed with money and background are naturally suppressed, so in recent years, there have been negative news about this brokerage company on the Internet , almost like a blank sheet of paper.

In good conscience, although revealing the truth is indeed a relief, they just don't know whether this approach is tantamount to moths flying into a flame.

Even Li Xia was a little worried, and lightly rubbed the shoulder of the primary school sister, "Your crew over there...?"

It means that the contract is broken here, what should the crew do with half of the filming?Do you want to change the leading role?It's a big taboo to change actors midway, especially if it's the second female lead, it's almost like offending the entire crew.

"It's okay." Unexpectedly, Cheng Qiqi shook her head, taking advantage of no one's attention, she whispered to Lixia: "When the crew over there signed the contract, they directly approached me, and didn't go to the brokerage company. There is a threshold, so... it will not get in the way."

This was quite ironic, Li Xia smiled wryly after hearing this.

It seems that Roller's restrictions on Cheng Qiqi's currents are indeed quite ruthless, otherwise the crew would not have been able to bypass the brokerage company and have a meeting with me.

The meal was lively, and it was almost 07:30 in the evening when the mess was cleaned up and paid.

At this moment, it was almost two hours before school was over. Looking at the darkening sky outside, Li Xia frowned faintly, feeling that something was wrong, as if he had forgotten an extremely important agreement in his heart.

"Is your head confused?" She patted her head, only thinking that she was thinking too much.

As a result, several people hooked their shoulders and walked out the door.

It happened that not far from the road, he saw a little boy with a stooped expression, and Li Xia was startled, and then suddenly remembered the advice that Lao Wang gave him in the morning.

"Don't be in a hurry to go home at night, go find me in the playground and show you a treasure!"

"It's broken, it's broken." The eldest lady's eyes widened, she just felt confused, how could she forget such an important thing?And looking at Lao Wang's downcast look, he hasn't returned home at 07:30, so he has been waiting for him to find him?

"what should I do now?"

Now go back to the playground?It seems useless, right?Or should I just greet him and bow and apologize?Said that he had eaten with other men for a while before forgetting about him?

Li Xia's EQ is actually quite low. Apart from intrigues in business, he is also a straight man who handles emotions properly in real life. However, even if his EQ is as low as Li Xia's, he vaguely feels that this kind of excuse once said If she comes out, then her friendship with Lao Wang will definitely face a huge crisis, and it may even be cut off directly, right?

Lao Wang lowered his head and staggered silently in the corner along the road. His figure was a bit embarrassed, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, but it was not difficult to distinguish his identity from his handsome profile.

He didn't notice the eldest lady standing not far from the corner of the street. Instead, Cheng Qiqi became restless. Seeing an acquaintance, he waved his arms from a distance and shouted loudly: "Hey! Didn't go home?"

Li Xia was startled, and subconsciously wanted to stop him, but the speed of the other party's bald mouth was too fast, and he didn't have time to move, and the yelling had already resounded in the empty street.

At first, Old Wang didn't pay much attention to it, he just squinted slightly in surprise, but when he saw the bewildered young lady in the crowd, his initially dull eyes lit up with a gleam.

"You...why are you here?" He walked over with his eyes wide open, his expression hurried, and he didn't even look at the passing vehicles when crossing the road.If it weren't for the slow speed of the car on the road section, there was still time to step on the brakes, and that moment just now might have caused a catastrophe.

But even so, the driver still rolled down the window, cursed a few words, and drove away again.

Facing the noise in his ears, Lao Wang seemed to have not heard at all, staring straight at the eldest lady, his shoulders trembling slightly.

"Didn't you agree to come to the playground to find me after school...?" Old Wang said in surprise, and leaned forward in a low voice.

The words didn't seem to be asking questions at all, but rather seemed to be begging for an answer.

Is she free?But it doesn't look like it... So many strange faces around me gather together, hugging left and right, so enthusiastic, this is obviously just out of a party, right?How can you say there is no time...

Old Wang wanted to try his best to convince himself, but the current situation silently slapped him in the face.

"Why is your face so red, have you been drinking again?" Seeing the strange color on the face of the young lady, Old Wang couldn't help being startled.

"I..." The eldest lady rubbed her head, almost at a loss for what to say.

The atmosphere will be a little awkward for a while.

After a pause, Lao Wang raised his head and saw the strange man he met at the concert earlier, Lu Ranyu.

He was dressed in a suit, and his hair was well combed, but for some reason, when he saw this handsome face, Lao Wang's heart felt blocked.

"Why is it you again? What is your relationship with her?" Both of them were a little surprised, and pointed their fingers at each other.
