Song Yunran really wanted to reply "No", but his desire to survive did not allow him to do so.
So he had no choice but to say vaguely: "It will be October when you come back. There are a lot of things to be busy in the second half of the year. I may not be free."
Qin Ke said sincerely: "It's okay, I can cooperate with your time."
"... I'll talk about it then. I'm sleepy, good night."
Song Yunran hastily hung up the video, feeling that he had managed to win a probation with this wave of operations tonight, temporarily safe but not completely safe.
When he got the Xinghe report a few days ago, he still hoped that time would pass faster, and it would be better to jump to the good time when the investment project is making money obediently.
From now on, he can only pray that time will pass more slowly, so that he can realize what it means to live like a year.
It's a pity that the flow of time is not centered on Song Yunran's will.
In desperation, he had no choice but to put all his energy into his work and try not to think about Qin Ke.
Fortunately, in the following month, Galaxy has indeed entered a busy period of business.
The variety shows invested in February have all finished broadcasting. As Song Yunran expected, the number of broadcasts and discussions did not cause much disturbance, but fortunately, several artists from Xinghe are quite eye-catching, and the variety show has not yet finished broadcasting. Some new resources came to contact us, and contracts were signed one after another in the past few days, and it was a small profit after coming and going.
After Song Yunran heard the news, he was a little puzzled at first.
When these variety shows were broadcast, he didn't pay much attention to them, but the artists of Galaxy in the previous life should have been side characters in the shows, and they didn't have effective shots at all. Why did they have a more eye-catching performance in this life.
Regarding this, Assistant Tang explained: "For the sake of you and Ning Dong, the program team appropriately gave our artists more opportunities to perform, and they themselves are very competitive, so they didn't waste the script issued by the program team."
Song Yunran frowned, but in the end he had to rely on his influence.
Someday these people will learn to walk independently.
Assistant Tang didn't understand why President Xiao Song was upset again, so he bit the bullet and continued to report: "The implantation plan of the filming "After Met You" and the beverage party have been negotiated, and it has entered the contract process. The "Nanhua" you proposed Biography’s offline IP development plan involves many stakeholders, and it may take until the end of this month to formulate a detailed cooperation plan.”
Song Yunran let out an "um", not dissatisfied with the latter's progress.
"Legend of South China" is Galaxy's key project next year. Zhong Xiaofeng is still working hard at the resort to revise the script, and the supporting game development has just started. As long as the offline cooperation can be negotiated before the filming starts, there is no rush anyway.
"In addition, the review results of "Congratulations and Weddings" came out, and they edited another version based on the opinions of the above."
Assistant Tang thought about it and asked, "Do you want to go and see for yourself?"
Song Yunran hesitated for a moment, he didn't really want to see Qin Ke's face for the time being.
But "Congratulations and Weddings" is Xinghe's first turnaround, and a slight mistake will affect his career as president. Just to be on the safe side, he should not take it lightly.
"Do you still need to ask?" Song Yunran frowned, "Say hello to them, I'll go over now."
Assistant Tang: "...OK."
What happened these few days, he thought strangely, Mr. Song's mood is not stable.
After contacting the producer of "A Happy Affair", Assistant Tang accompanied Song Yunran and set off to the production company.
Along the way, Song Yunran sometimes turned his head to look out the window, sometimes closed his eyes in deep thought, and sometimes stared in a daze, making Assistant Tang even more confused.
"Mr. Song, what difficulties have you encountered?" Assistant Tang couldn't help expressing his concern.
Song Yunran looked at him sadly: "You can't solve it even if you talk about it."
Assistant Tang felt deeply guilty. He felt that he was not a good assistant, and he couldn't even do the minimum to share the president's worries.
At this time, the vehicle happened to pass by a shopping mall. He had an idea and pointed out the window: "Look, Qin Ke's huge poster!"
Song Yunran's eyelashes trembled three times in fright, and he looked out uncontrollably.
It's already September, and it's the time when brands are rushing to launch new autumn styles.
The glass curtain walls of large shopping malls have also been replaced with promotional posters of the new season's main style. Among them, the most eye-catching one is Qin Ke's.
The seemingly vast poplar forest at the scene can only be reduced to a background in the photo.
A black windbreaker occupies the main perspective of the picture. Qin Ke is holding an umbrella, turning his face slightly to look into the distance, as if raindrops may seep out of the humid air at any time, and he is well dressed and is about to go to a romantic Dating.
The photographer's composition is ingenious, and a static poster has a sense of story that draws people's imagination.
The vehicle did not slow down and sped through the bustling commercial area.
The scene he saw just now left an imprint on Song Yunran's mind.
Assistant Tang also introduced next to him: "I heard that after the launch of this group of advertisements, many people entered the store and directly ordered to buy the whole set of outfits on him. This is just the beginning, and the turnover has doubled compared to the same period of previous years. The brand has found Chen Jing, offered to change the short-term endorsement to a long-term endorsement."
Song Yunran was dubious: "Is the effect so good? Don't let his fans rush the sales."
"It's really not a fan." Assistant Tang said, "Some people don't know Qin Ke at all, and think he is a professional model invited from somewhere."
Song Yunran: "So powerful?"
Assistant Tang replied honestly: "Of course, Qin Ke's two films have not yet been released, and they can show such excellent commercial value. After "Happy Weddings" and "Jianghu Road" are released, the company will be able to make a lot of money on his own. money."
Speaking of this, Assistant Tang has already replaced the boss and became happy first.
Which boss wouldn't be excited to hear that employees can make money? He simply thought, that's real money.
Seeing that Qin Ke is so easy to use, President Xiao Song should be happy now.
Unexpectedly, Song Yunran's face was even uglier than before.
He pursed his lips tightly, and after some struggles, he asked slowly, "Could it be that in your opinion, he is more powerful than me, the president?"
"...?"
Assistant Tang quickly shook his head: "Absolutely not! You discovered Qin Ke, how can he compare to you."
Song Yunran turned his head: "Really? You didn't secretly seek refuge in the enemy's camp, did you?"
Then, on the day my nightmare came true, I was going to take my monica to curry favor with Qin Ke.
Assistant Tang didn't understand why Qin Ke, as a company artist, suddenly became an enemy camp.
He thought for a while, and tentatively asked, "Is it because of Qin Ke that you are in a bad mood?"
"… certainly not!"
Song Yunran immediately denied it, and said angrily, "Are you thinking about it again?"
Assistant Tang shook his head quickly. He lost his year-end bonus, so he dared to think about it.
"It's fine if it's not, it has nothing to do with Qin Ke anyway." Song Yunran replied stiffly.
Assistant Tang's heart was desolate, and he really couldn't figure out what was going on with Mr. Song and Qin Ke. This complicated interpersonal relationship even made him doubt himself.
Otherwise, go to a training class to improve yourself
As he was thinking so, the driver told them that the destination had arrived.
Song Yunran was afraid that Assistant Tang would be entangled with Qin Ke's problem again, so before Assistant Tang could help to open the door, he rushed out of the car, walked quickly to the producer of "Happy and Happy Events" waiting outside, and shook hands with the other party with a smile on his face .
Assistant Tang watched the scene of the friendly meeting numbly, and felt that there was still something wrong.
Now he didn't dare to think about strange things anymore. After pondering for a long time, he could only come to one conclusion.
Maybe Qin Ke imitated Fang Zhou and planned to terminate the contract with the company
ah this...
This is too inappropriate.
Assistant Tang sent a message to Chen Jing, reminding her to pay attention to Qin Ke's recent movements, and emphasized that Mr. Song was already dissatisfied with this.
After receiving the message, Chen Jing stared at the screen for a long time before confirming that she read it correctly.
Today, for other work, she flew to the set of "Jianghu Road" to talk to Qin Ke. The filming is not over yet, and she is sitting by the side and waiting like everyone else.
Chen Jing didn't reply in a hurry, but thought carefully about Qin Ke's recent performance, thinking that from the perspective of an agent, he couldn't point out any mistakes.
Could it be that Qin Ke did something when she didn't know
"Xiao Ke, you were there when Mr. Song came last time."
Chen Jing put down her phone, turned to ask the artist assistant, "Did Qin Ke and Mr. Song have any unpleasantness at that time?"
Xiao Ke was stunned: "No, I think they have a good relationship. The hotel didn't have a room the day Mr. Song arrived, and they slept together."
Chen Jing: "Think about it carefully?"
Xiao Ke recalled obediently: "Ah, one night Cheng Jiaming went to Mr. Song's room to play games, and Qin Ke seemed to be in a bad mood the next day."
As a woman's intuition, Chen Jing frowned: "Is there any more?"
"Uh... It also happened that day. You made a phone call with Qin Ke, and then I saw him, he..."
Xiao Ke scratched his cheek, somehow embarrassed, and whispered, "He saved a video of him and Mr. Song from Weibo."
Chen Jing was startled, and raised her eyebrows unexpectedly: "Are you sure you read it right?"
"I can see clearly. Sister Jing, do you think Qin Ke will..."
For the rest, Xiao Ke didn't dare to say it directly, and could only hint with his eyes frantically.
Chen Jing didn't express her position. She is not impulsive, and she will always draw a logic in her mind before opening her mouth.
Logically speaking, Xinghe does not have a rule that artists are not allowed to fall in love, but no one has thought about what measures an artist should take if they are involved with their boss.
What's more, according to the analysis of the situation that Assistant Tang reminded through her, even if there is something about the two of them, it is only in the embryonic stage, otherwise they just need to communicate directly, and there is no need to bother Assistant Tang.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Jing replied: [Qin Ke didn't mention the idea of terminating the contract, but I will pay more attention, thank you.]
Assistant Tang looked at the news and couldn't help sighing.
It seems that Chen Jing is still not vigilant enough. Only when he is by Mr. Song's side can he discover the unknown strangeness from the boss's few words.
"Then ready to play?"
At this moment, a voice from beside him interrupted his thoughts.
Assistant Tang raised his head and found that the representative of the producer of "A Happy Affair" was ready to play the sample that had just been edited for them, so he turned off his phone and waited to watch.
Song Yunran was also ready.
After the lights dimmed, he sat on the sofa, staring at the projection screen with all his attention, and carefully compared the picture in front of him with the film in his memory.
This version has not yet added a soundtrack, but the film with only human voices and ambient sounds has already presented those interesting links in a solid script.
Because the other staff members have watched it too many times, the overall situation is normal, except that Assistant Tang, the only one in the audience who watched "Happy and Happy" for the first time, laughs and screams from time to time during the viewing process, and the set of unsmiling elites collapses into a mess.
Everyone didn't care about this. They regarded Assistant Tang as the audience in the future. Seeing the audience laughing so happily, everyone's heart was filled with great confidence and pride, and they couldn't help showing a happy smile on their faces.
Song Yunran was the only one who remained silent the whole time, with a cold heart.
When he was filming on the set, he was surprised by Qin Ke's performance on the set, which was better than what he saw in the cinema later. It's just that at that time he thought it was because of the editing, so he didn't take it seriously.
But after watching it today, he clearly found that Qin Ke's acting skills in the movie were much better than the overall effect presented in his previous life.
In the last life, Qin Ke, who just graduated from university, made his first movie. Although the handling of lines and micro-expressions is far beyond the level of his peers, there is still room for further refinement if you really want to study it carefully.
This is also the reason why he could only win the Best Newcomer Award for "Red and White Wedding", but was not able to nominate the Best Actor.
But right now it seems...
Song Yunran blinked.
It's not good, Qin Ke is probably going to soar into the sky.
After watching the movie, Song Yunran felt even heavier than before.
After he raised his spirits and praised everyone, he returned to the car depressed, thinking about which way he should use to beg for mercy when Qin Ke came back to appear more sincere.
I don't know if it's too late to call me brother obediently.
Song Yunran was very worried. On the way back to the company, his eyebrows were never stretched.
Seeing that he was sullen, Assistant Tang was about to speak when Song Yunran suddenly sat up straight and turned to look behind the car.
"It seems that someone is following us." Song Yunran said nervously.
Assistant Tang glanced back, and saw that the vehicles on the road were the same as usual, and there was nothing unusual: "No, you may be too tired. I'll ask the driver to take you home directly."
Song Yunran was startled, the weird intuition just now seemed to have disappeared again.
Is it really an illusion
Or has Qin Ke already predicted that success is close at hand, and has already arranged manpower to deal with him
Some thoughts, once created, never go away.
For the next period of time, Song Yunran was always suspicious, and looked around every day when he went out, afraid that someone would suddenly rush out to cover him with a sack.
What's even more frightening is that as the time for Qin Ke's return approaches, the sense of horror of being secretly observed becomes even stronger, but the people around him don't notice it at all, making it even more apparent that the other party is coming for him.
On the day when Qin Ke finally finished, Song Yunran couldn't hold back anymore.
He decided to turn the customer into the main, and directly booked a restaurant for dinner, and then sent the address to Qin Ke, asking him to come to him directly after getting off the plane.
Qin Ke arrived at Yanshi Airport at five o'clock in the afternoon.
He turned on his phone and saw the message from Song Yunran, frowned lightly, and then made a call.
Song Yunran was sitting in the office. He knew the time when Qin Ke landed, so he was mentally prepared in advance. When he saw a familiar name lit up on the screen, he cleared his throat and answered, "Are you there?"
In just three words, he uttered the dark momentum of the black market trading pair's secret code.
Qin Ke replied: "Just arrived. Do you want to meet tonight?"
"Can't you?"
In Song Yunran's mind, the wonderful scene of him and Qin Ke's decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City tonight has already emerged, and his tone is more serious, "Are you afraid?"
Qin Ke: "..."
In his opinion, to Song Yunran, tonight should be just an ordinary meal, and there is no need to use the word "fear".
But Mr. Song's mind has always been too active, and he didn't know what the other party was imagining, so he could only explain patiently: "It will be the rush hour soon. I may be stuck in traffic in the past, and I may be late to the restaurant."
Song Yunran sneered: "It's okay, I'll wait for you no matter how late."
After finishing speaking, he ruthlessly hung up the phone, controlling the boss's demeanor to death.
Very good, losers don't lose.
He raised his head proudly, turned on the front camera of his phone, and sorted out the formal clothes that he specially matched today.
The moment he stepped out of the gate of the CEO's office, Song Yunran felt that the magnificent BGM was about to start.
"Mr. Xiao Song is good."
Passing employees greeted him with a smile.
Song Yunran nodded and said, his eyebrows and eyes were full of signs of decisive killing by business elites.
After he left, the employees whispered.
"Mr. Xiao Song is so serious today, completely different from his usual cute and cute look."
"Isn't he going to take the overbearing president's route again?"
"… possible."
Song Yunran didn't take Assistant Tang with him, and bent over and sat in the car alone. When the door was closed, his fingertips touched the cool autumn wind.
He raised his eyes, looked at the street trees dancing with the wind, and couldn't help feeling: "The wind is blowing."
The driver who was in charge of closing the door thought he was talking to himself, and subconsciously said, "Yes, it's quite windy today."
"Is this the mountain and the rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building?"
Song Yunran laughed softly, and a deep look flashed in his eyes, "Then let the storm be more violent."
driver:"… "
Forget it, President Xiao Song has been acting weird recently, maybe he watched some TV series that he shouldn't watch.
Half an hour later, the driver parked the car in the restaurant's own parking lot.
He helped Song Yunran open the car door and asked, "I'm waiting for you here?"
Song Yunran hesitated for a moment: "No, you can find a place to eat."
He was going to a Hongmen banquet today, and if Qin Ke wanted him to kneel down and call his brother, he didn't want too many acquaintances present to see him.
Just when the driver was about to turn around and leave, Song Yunran's back felt cold.
He realized Cheng Jiaming's uneasiness on the set, and felt that someone was staring at him behind him, but when he turned his head and searched the parking lot, he still found nothing.
"I think someone is watching me." Song Yunran called to stop the driver and said seriously.
The driver was numb. In the past half month, Song Yunran often said similar nonsense, which made him not know how to answer.
While thinking about how to report this situation to Mr. Song, he comforted him, "Then I'll take you into the store?"
"… Forget it."
Song Yunran saw that the driver didn't believe his words, so he waved helplessly, "Let's go."
After bidding farewell to the driver, Song Yunran followed the parking lot's instructions to take the elevator.
Halfway there, Qin Ke sent a message saying that he had also arrived. Song Yunran replied, "See you in the restaurant", and was about to reach out to press the elevator button when the phone vibrated again.
Song Yunran was speechless for a while.
What's the matter, without Dad leading the way, you can't even find the elevator to the restaurant
He frowned and turned on his phone again, only to find that what he received this time was a text message from an unfamiliar number.
[I saw you.]
Song Yunran's brain buzzed, and adrenaline surged in an instant.
He looked at the elevator that had not arrived in front of him, and then, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in his ears.
Boom, boom, boom.
In less than two seconds, the strange footsteps stopped behind him.
"Mr. Song, hello." A gloomy and hoarse voice sounded like a ghost.
Song Yunran turned his head and saw a somewhat familiar face.
After a moment, he recognized it.
It was Chu Xiaochen.
The author has something to say: This time is not persecution delusion ⊙▽⊙
Chu Xiaochen is the actor who was exposed by Mr. Song for cheating in marriage. I am so worried about you little goldfishes.
