Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

This is the entertainment industry, which may not be easy for laymen to understand.

But it can be understood by changing the contract into a sale——

Someone was doing business with Rogge, the contract was signed, and the agreement was made, but the result was that they kept cutting corners behind the scenes and letting a third party get involved.

Say nothing else.

That person had better pray that he was secretive enough that Rogge wouldn't find out for the rest of his life.

Then I have to exercise my skills so that I can run faster than the mercenaries sent by Rogge, so as not to be caught.

Otherwise, it is mostly just a matter of adding another seat in the gutter, garbage dump or bay.

Even Regina, who has the best temper, has to be punished by that person until she can't get along in Night City.

As for Okada Wakako...

She was more ruthless than Roger.

So it's completely normal for Kerry to want to engage Kovacek.

With MSM records, most of them just turn a blind eye and close one eye.

The value of an enduring rock star, or the value of a duplicitous, profit-driven, stupid manager, is a simple math problem.

"Are you planning to terminate the contract?"

V looked at Kerry's expression and asked.

"Ah, that's not the case, can you be more realistic——if I really terminate the contract, what should I do?"

Kerry crossed his arms, turned around, and leaned against the elevator wall, "Who will be in charge of releasing my new album? Who will be in charge of distribution, publicity, Internet celebrities, and the media? These are all in the hands of the record company. Once the contract is terminated, it's over."

"exactly."

Rocky understands this problem very well.

This is Night City in 2077, and the degree of monopoly of capital is far higher than in any era.

Almost all resources and channels are in the hands of those giants in the entertainment industry. Without them, there will be no future.

"Unless another company intends to give you the bottom line."

"uh-huh."

Kerry nodded.

For example, he signed with Universal Music before, but that was many years ago.

"It's not the same now as it was then."

"Another rock boy who bowed his head to the capital, Kerry, you have changed."

Johnny was still in the same position, almost exactly the same as Kerry.

"Are you serious? No one listens to you when you sing until your face turns blue. What's the use of this kind of effort? It's nothing more than a different form of the cage."

Kerry is against it.

"The villa you live in now and the things you use are all obtained by bowing your head."

It turned out that Johnny had been sleeping at Kerry's house during this time.

Honestly, ♂ no ♂ is not the point at all.

More importantly, after so many years, the friendship between the two of them has not deteriorated. This is the best result, isn't it?

"This is the embarrassment of living under the fence."

Rocky said with a sigh.

"Yeah, why don't so many artists want to save a sum of money and become directors after they get to the top?"

Kerry is in this circle. In addition to knowing how dirty it is, he also knows the ecology inside.

However, this kind of class is now more difficult to cross than before.

It's useless to have money, and it's useless to be able to direct films by yourself.

As long as the release channels are crushed, such as theaters and online sales, such as Chaomeng and digital movies, then no one will watch a good movie, or no one will watch it.

The director of the very popular "Bushido" series of films went bankrupt overnight because of the poor sales of "Bushido X", and went back to before liberation.

This world is very cruel, especially capital itself is the one who formulates and implements the rules of the game.

It is indeed too difficult to rely on other people's breath for everything, but there is not a few inches of ground under the feet.

Kerry understands this very well, and has no intention of arguing about it.

If it weren't for Johnny's "deceived corpse style", his life might have continued like this, and then he would be a rock star who has nothing to do with the world, until one day he feels tired and wants to retire.

His unparalleled talent can only buy him so much limited freedom.

Apart from money, in fact, he is not far away from having nothing.

"Show you my favorite places in Night City."

The elevator has arrived.

So much for the heaviness of the topic.

Kerry walked out the door, said something back, and then led the way.

This is an exquisite lounge with a sense of luxury everywhere.

It was very quiet at this time, no one else, just the four of them.

Plants and lights, distant views and high-altitude wind sounds.

This is the perfect place to overlook Night City.

At this altitude, they can enjoy the normal sky.

It's just that the weather is not so good now, and it's late at night, so I don't even have a chance to enjoy the sunshine.

Foggy, empty, and cold.

The feeling of Night City is sometimes so contradictory, obviously it is so noisy and noisy here.

"If it wasn't for a big day, I wouldn't come here easily."

Kerry led them to the outer patio.

There are wooden floors and carpets that Roach likes, and bamboo as a partition.

On the table between the sofas, there was a small lamp emitting the light of yellowed book pages, which gave him an unexpected sense of peace of mind.

"I told the store that it is closed for rest today, so there is no need to find someone."

Kerry said as he walked.

"Purchase? You have money."

Rocky laughed.

"If you can't feel comfortable spending the money you earn with your head down, then it's not worth it."

Kerry has his own philosophy of life.

And... convinced Johnny.

That past is, after all, just the past.

Johnny Silverhand is the only one called Johnny Silverhand. If it wasn't for Arasaka, where would I be now?

"Ah, the scenery here is really hard to see. I like overlooking the city."

Facing the front, Kerry spread out his arms, closed his eyes, and tasted the refreshing feeling brought by this condescending and emptiness.

"When you fall asleep, you feel special, and when you wake up, you're nothing but here."

Johnny and Kerry stood side by side, their backs leaning against the railing.

Under the feet is a transparent glass plank road, leaving the building and extending out.

If it is a fear of heights, I am afraid that the legs have already started to weaken.

"I found that you have a lot of golden sentences today."

Luo Qi shook his head and smiled.

"Yeah, Night City, Night City..."

He suddenly found that he had nothing to say about this city.

Almost everything that needs to be understood is over.

The reason is that some people will refresh the lower limit of the Three Views again in the future.

Of course, in the process, you may meet more interesting people, or realize some useless but reasonable philosophy of life.

If humans were removed from this city, it would actually be a very nice place.

The technology is advanced, the scenery is unique, facing the sea, and the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming.

Kerry also loves the city.

But he is also trapped in this city, using a cage infinitely larger than the contract he signed.

Without this industry, he is nothing.

After leaving Night City, he can't go anywhere.

If you want to break free from the shackles, you must first get ahead.

But in order to get ahead, you have to sacrifice some things and put shackles on yourself.

It's a contradiction, yes.

But this is actually a compromise.

At least now, he can rent such a castle in the sky, and sigh while looking at the scenery of Night City.

"It's rare to have free time."

Rocky sighed.

"Yeah, I think we are not ordinary friends. So I always want to find a time to have a good chat."

Kerry turned his head, looked seriously at Luo Qi, then at V, and said.

If it's not really serious, just stay in his home that is big enough to hold a party for a hundred people, why come to this treasured place that he cherishes so much.

With this beautiful scenery, let's have a good chat.

Kerry always gives Rocky the feeling that he's keeping everything on his mind.

The Johnny Tin Can next to him was even worse, he didn't even say a word, and he couldn't make a fart after three poles.

In other words, these two really deserve to be together, and they are really stubbornly consistent in this respect.

"But I feel like you didn't say anything."

V was the one who went to burn the car with Kerry that day, hoping to warn the stubborn combination who don't know what's good and what's wrong.

Who knew that they made a mistake in the end, and they didn't know that Song Kerry didn't agree to the authorization, and they were thinking about cooperating with him one day.

"I've been thinking about what we said in Caliente."

Kerry looked into the distance, as if this would make him feel better.

"A conversation about Ganglie, you, and those company dog ​​slaves?"

V remembered.

"Hmm. Maybe I'm not telling you the whole truth. Or, maybe, myself."

Kerry sighed, his shoulders looking heavy.

"Don't be so negative, say something, we're all here, huh?"

Luo Qi saw that he was not in a good mood, so he walked into the room and took a bottle of inflatable green grape sparkling water that looked okay.

A small amount of alcohol, mainly refreshing fruit juice, which is delicious with ice cubes, and Luo Qi likes this.

The disadvantage is that it is very expensive, but Luo Qi can drink it with confidence at the Kerry Bao shop today.

"I thought that Ganglie's cover song was because I was afraid—afraid of being exposed, afraid that I would finally be found out that I was just a businessman covered in gold, and a cog in the company."
