In the coffee shop, Fu Cuo listened to Liu Mei's words in silence. She came here because of Meng Jing's business. She probably thought that Sui Qingchi would not listen to her, so she came to him, although he didn't know what Liu Mei was doing. I know where I live, but these gold brokers have always been very resourceful.

"If he still wants his career, you can tell him not to be so self-willed anymore." Liu Mei didn't take a sip of the coffee on the table, she spoke earnestly and earnestly.

"I don't really understand," Fu Cuo frowned, "Why does Meng Jing persist?" She would understand that Sui Qingchi never loved her at all, and it's good that she didn't even hate her.

Liu Mei's expression was also very different: "I'm not her, how do I know what she thinks, I only know that Sui Qingchi's actions didn't end well, do you know what gift he gave Meng Huanfeng?"

Fu Cuo's heart skipped a beat: "What?"

"The Count of Monte Cristo." Liu Mei said, seeing Fu Cuo's expression stagnant, she shrugged, "He's such a second-year student. Mr. Meng was so angry."

What about a serious gift? ! Fu Cuo only felt that his head was going up and he was about to faint. He calmed down and asked, "Where's Meng Jing?"

Liu Mei sighed: "So she must ask Sui Qingchi to go back by herself, and also ask him to personally apologize to her brother and the old man."

"That's impossible." Fu Cuo said.

"I also know it's impossible, so I came to you."

"That's still impossible." Fu Cuo shook his head.

It could be seen that Liu Mei was holding a deep breath. She leaned against the back of the chair and suppressed it for a long time before she said: "Fu Cuo, I don't know if you know that Sui Qingchi was hidden by snow because of confronting the company's senior management before. a year."

Finally when it came to this point, Fu Cuo lowered his head and stirred the coffee, and asked, "Why did he do it against you?"

A singer who doesn't want to follow the idol route, doesn't want to make TV dramas, doesn't want to appear in messy variety shows, but just wants to sing well, is it called doing it right? He just didn't want to be a puppet, but wanted to be a person with personality, so he called him to do it? He raised his head and questioned Liu Mei: "Why hide him?"

It was you who snatched him from us. I thought at least you would protect him and pave the way for him, but he still has to suffer? Want to struggle by yourself? !

Liu Mei seemed to be a bit speechless, she said: "The company accepted an idol drama for him, and there is also a variety show that needs to be in for a long time. He refused at the beginning, and even came to negotiate with Meng An. The two people are not speculative. When we quarreled, Meng An said... 'If you can still read, go back and look through the contract yourself, and you have to do whatever I ask you to do'... "

She was also in the office at the time, and she still remembers Sui Qingchi's expression at that time. He was sitting across from Meng An's desk. Besides, stand up, turn around and leave.

"Then he..." Liu Mei rubbed her temples, thinking about it now gave her a headache, "He obediently signed all those contracts..."

Fu Cuo guessed it immediately, and then he broke the contract again.

After that, not only did Sui Qingchi not go to the studio or record variety shows, he even stopped fulfilling the various endorsements he signed before. This is how his reputation in the industry has deteriorated. Liu Mei said that during that time, Huanyi received various warnings of breach of contract. As an agent, she was more anxious than Sui Qingchi. Art was just getting started at that time. It is no exaggeration to say that 90% of the company's profits depended on Sui Qingchi alone. Such high liquidated damages were paid out without any income, which could almost shut down the company. Meng An was so angry that he slapped the table and scolded Sui Qingchi for losing money.

At that time, she reminded Sui Qingchi: "If you really make the company lose so much money, you are also in breach of contract, and the company can take you to court at any time!"

Sui Qingchi stood in the company's elevator with his guitar bag on his back, leaned back against the elevator wall indifferently, and snorted coldly: "Will I be afraid of going to court?"

She knew that he was serious, so she subconsciously glanced at Sui Qingchi's left hand in her pocket, his subtext was more terrifying than what he said, she felt a chill in her heart, and had to ask: "Then what do you want the company to do? "

"Simple," Sui Qingchi looked sideways at her, "I will answer the announcements myself, and companies that I don't want to accept can't force me to accept them. In addition, I want to hold a concert and release records, and the company must fully satisfy them."

Liu Mei gasped when she heard that: "It's impossible! I can convey your thoughts to Meng An, but Meng An is not a soft character. He is richer and more powerful than you. Sui Qingchi, think clearly about your situation." What are you doing, what capital do you have to fight against the boss of the company?!"

The expression on Sui Qingchi's face was not at all turbulent. When the elevator arrived at the floor, he straightened his back, and the guitar bag on his back left the elevator wall. As he walked forward, he only said: "I will not compromise."

It's just oily and salty!

As soon as the elevator door slid open, Meng An unexpectedly stood outside, staring coldly at Sui Qingchi who was half a head taller than him. No, the guitar bag brushed Mr. Meng's shoulder provocatively.

Meng An called to stop Liu Mei, Liu Mei stopped, Sui Qingchi didn't wait for her, and went into the rehearsal room by herself.

Liu Mei said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Meng."

Meng An glanced at the direction where Sui Qingchi left, and said, "You don't need to talk about it, I can see his attitude."

Liu Mei said: "Why don't you push the TV dramas and variety shows that he doesn't want, so that the company can reduce the liquidated damages by more than half..."

"He didn't want to pick it up, so of course he had to push it." Meng An left after finishing speaking.

At that time, she wondered if Meng An was willing to give in. At that time, Huanyi didn't have so much cash to pay liquidated damages, especially for the endorsement contract. The company also had a few other artists. Meng An said that the endorsement fee could be reduced to 30% for the manufacturer. As an endorsement, it even dropped to 10% later, but the endorsement manufacturers didn't accept it, they only wanted Sui Qingchi, and they paid ten times as much for Sui Qingchi, which undoubtedly made Meng An feel ashamed.

Sui Qingchi was also really a fierce lion, he single-handedly shocked Meng Huanfeng, the richest man in the country at that time. Huanyi was created by Meng Huanfeng with money for Meng An. Meng An has always been conceited, and he didn't intend to ask his father for help, but obviously he was even less prepared to let Sui Qingchi succeed.

Meng Huanfeng came to the company, and after listening to the situation, he said: "I'll pay him the money he broke the contract, and then we can do whatever we want. It's too big for a company as big as yours to be turned into this by an actor. Ugly."

Meng An must have felt uncomfortable, and said with a strong attitude: "The company plans to sue him immediately and terminate the contract with him. He will have to pay back the money to the company for the rest of his life."

Meng Huanfeng laughed twice: "Didn't you hear what Xiaomei said? She is not afraid of a lawsuit at all," he said, and looked up at her, indicating "I'm not wrong", "It takes time and money to do this." Moreover, you have terminated the contract with him, which is equivalent to helping him indirectly. He is so popular now that he can switch to another house immediately. You let him lose money for the rest of his life? How old is he now, compared with the money he can earn? , the little money you give us will soon be a drop in the bucket.”

Meng An immediately understood, couldn't swallow the breath even more, and said with a gloomy face: "But we can't forget it like this."

Meng Huanfeng smiled again and said, "He's not afraid of going to court, so what is he afraid of? He must be afraid." He put down Erlang's legs and shook the cigarette beside the ashtray.

Liu Mei, who was present and listening, couldn't help shivering.

After that, Sui Qingchi was hidden by the snow.

He made a fuss for a month, and was finally repaid by Meng An twice, one month, two months, three months... In fact, he didn't do anything, but that means he didn't do anything. He is on the stage, and he is not given a chance.

After all, Sui Qingchi was only twenty-two years old at that time. He was no different from a fledgling college student. He had nothing but talent and arrogance. In front of the capital tycoons, they are as childish as school-age children. Meng Huanfeng had plenty of money, and Sui Qingchi's desperate methods, before the huge amount of capital that Meng Huanfeng threw at him, were like floating in the middle of the ocean.

Meng An was telling him with hard facts that your tens of millions of fans on Weibo are nothing, your talent and charm are nothing, and without money, you, Sui Qingchi, are nothing.

Sui Qingchi began to realize that something was wrong when he discovered that the website of his support club could not be opened one day. The website was closed due to server hosting arrears. Fans were asking, but Huanyi’s official Weibo completely ignored the past . Because of Meng An's instruction, she and Sui Qingchi had never formally communicated about Xuezang, but Sui Qingchi soon understood what happened. He didn't ask her directly, but only contacted some performers through her. This kid is really wild enough, and it may be that his background in the band gave him experience and courage. He actually wanted to skip the company and contact the performance and recording by himself. Of course, it is impossible, because he still has a contract with Huanyi. No performer dared to accept his concert. They seem to be looking at a priceless diamond, but they dare not touch it.

Not everyone in this world is like you, Sui Qingchi, who dares to do anything and is not afraid of anything. she thought.

Sui Qingchi's schedule was almost full before, but suddenly his life became empty. Of course Sui Qingchi wouldn't care about those flying announcements, but this time he couldn't even reach the stage, so it was impossible not to care.

After that, she was arranged by Meng An to take the company's newly signed An Jie. Artists who have just debuted are very busy, so she followed suit. She would think of Sui Qingchi only after seeing the rainbow advertisements. In just a few months, all his advertisements on the streets and alleys disappeared. Sui Qingchi's debut momentum is very strong, but after all, he has just debuted. It's pitifully small, and in a few months, how many people will remember the name of that young man who sang so well

At first, Sui Qingchi would go to the company's rehearsal room, but Meng An still tacitly agreed to let him use the rehearsal room, but he had to apply for the same time as other artists in the company. In the past, Sui Qingchi and his team could monopolize the rehearsal room Gone are the days and nights. Liu Mei also saw the intention, as long as Sui Qingchi came to the company to rehearse, he would miss the stage even more and couldn't bear it.

Once when she went back to the company late at night to look for documents, she saw Sui Qingchi walking into the finally vacated rehearsal room alone with a guitar bag on her back. His team is no longer his, and he is alone now, without a musician to rehearse with him. In the middle of the night, from the direction of the rehearsal room, the solo of the electric guitar loaded with the wah effect was heard, like a big cat roaring.

She couldn't remember when Sui Qingchi didn't come to the company again. She didn't know whether she finally compromised with Meng An or gave up. But with Sui Qingchi's understanding of this year, she pessimistically felt that even if he chose to give up, he would not bow to Meng An.

As the agent who personally dug him out, she is also unwilling. An Jie is also very good, but she will never reach the height of Sui Qingchi. Is it really necessary to see such a future superstar die here

There are quite a few people in the industry who have noticed that Huanyi is in Xuezang Sui Qingchi, and they have heard from her directly or indirectly, but they hesitated when they heard that Huanyi had lost so much money to Sui Qingchi. In addition to being as strong as Yitian, most of the domestic brokerage companies cannot produce such astronomical figures. Moreover, Sui Qingchi does not follow the route of film and television, and does not follow the route of variety shows. He also plays contracts and breaks contracts, which is also criticized by many . And a big company like Yitian, which has no shortage of pillars, would not easily consider signing Sui Qingchi at a sky-high price, and a small company was powerless, and even she couldn't think of a way for Sui Qingchi during that time .

Later, she spared a weekend to go to Sui Qingchi's villa in Lantian County. After ringing the doorbell for a long time, Sui Qingchi's dull voice came from the door: "Who?" There was no sound for a while, she stood for a while, and the door was still opened. She walked into the villa, it was almost noon, the lights in the living room were still on, the curtains were still drawn, Sui Qingchi was sitting on the sofa with her head down, her long bangs were piled up and hanging down gloomyly, he looked As if he hadn't slept all night, there was an open laptop on the coffee table, and he was holding the contract she gave him at the beginning. It seemed that it was about to be torn apart. He must want to find the loopholes and loopholes in the contract, However, Huanyi's legal ability is very strong, and this contract can be said to be impeccable.

Sui Qingchi's lips were so dry that they turned white. He raised his head and asked her: "Can you help me find a lawyer? I can do it myself, but I don't have any contacts..."

Liu Mei looked at his shadowy eyes through bangs: "Xue Zang, you can't sue, you don't have evidence, and the contract is more beneficial to Huanyi, if you go to court, you will definitely lose the case." After all, you didn't cooperate. The company comes first.

Sui Qingchi frowned: "I know, I just want them to sue me back, so that I can terminate the contract!"

He was already emotionally unstable, but she could only pour cold water on him: "Impossible, don't you understand now? You are not Mr. Meng's opponent at all, Sui Qingchi, listen to me once, don't fight against them again "Can you die if you swallow it once

"Then what should I do? Am I going to wait until the contract expires in ten years?!" He threw the contract on the ground, buried his head and rubbed his hair with his hands, his hair had already grown a little long, and the ends were softly curly On the white neck, the veins on the neck spread, "Why did I sign this contract at that time..."

Liu Mei has always boasted that she is used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, and she is already a hard-hearted person, so she also felt worried at that moment. She felt that Sui Qingchi must have remembered everything he left behind for this contract, someone, or someone. He used to be free, standing freely on the stage that belonged to him, but now he is not even a venue with thousands of people, not even a livehouse can accommodate him. From the moment he signed the contract, he was no longer the free Sui Qingchi, he became the Sui Qingchi of Huanyi.

In fact, she also doesn't understand, there are so many roads, why Sui Qingchi always chooses a road that hits the south wall, enters the entertainment industry, and refuses to bend at all...

It's not that he didn't bend over at all. When he first debuted, she also persuaded him to appear in a few variety shows that he didn't like. That might be his biggest compromise. When he found out that the company's hands were getting longer and longer, and it had completely become something he didn't want, he finally lost his temper like a sophomore.

But he didn't expect that he was not an opponent.

She sighed, knelt down, picked up the contract and put it back on the sofa, and said, "Let me contact the lawyer for you." But it didn't work, the lawyer would just persuade him to apologize and reconcile quickly. The lawyer is much more tactful than you, Sui Qingchi, you won't listen to a word of the lawyer's opinion. She said silently in her heart that she couldn't understand, and before leaving, she said, "Go for a walk."

The speed of change in the entertainment industry is too fast. In a few years, a generation will be quickly forgotten, not to mention that Sui Qingchi will be buried in the snow not long after his debut. Unexpectedly, almost half a year after Sui Qingchi disappeared from people's sight, he suddenly became popular again. It was a passer-by who ran into Sui Qingchi in a KTV. It is said that a girl went to the wrong door, opened the door and went in and saw Sui Qingchi. He was the only one in the box, sitting on the sofa and singing "Wake me up wheember ends" by Green Day with a microphone. The girl saw him Screaming in surprise, Sui Qingchi didn't respond, and the girl bravely said loudly, "Can I take a photo with you?"

The lucky passer-by girl said on Weibo that when she spoke, it happened to be an interlude, Sui Qingchi didn't answer her, just pointed to the KTV screen, and continued singing with her own enthusiasm, she stood stupidly at the door Afterwards, after hearing Sui Qingchi finish singing that classic song by Green Day, she never thought that this old song that was sung badly could become so good.

- Oh my goodness I could hear him sing so close! As soon as his voice came out, the whole box felt reverberating in all directions, and I got goosebumps all over my body! Ah, why hasn't he come out to sing for a long time? With such a voice and good looks, he should be popular!

After the song was sung, Sui Qingchi got up and walked over to take a photo with her. He usually doesn't take photos with passers-by fans, but he didn't refuse that day. Although his expression was calm when the photo was taken, he was still envious after the photo was popular. It scares a lot of people, because the girl is short and does not reach Sui Qingchi's shoulders. Sui Qingchi bent her neck for her. This photo that has been on the hot search after many days has also attracted more passers-by besides fans Curious why he suddenly disappeared.

Her ex-manager looked at the photo and felt very uncomfortable. Sui Qingchi's hair was already very long, and he tied it up at the back of his head. He was still very good-looking, and he was very good-looking. Photogenic, his staring eyes are also very seductive, but his lowered head for a group photo makes her feel a little uncomfortable.

One thing surprised her, she thought that Sui Qingchi was cornered and couldn't take it anymore, he would definitely say all this on Weibo, he still has a huge number of fans, he has been silent for more than half a year, still He has the ability to be on trending searches by just showing his face. What others can do by buying trending searches and channels, he can do it without spending a penny. This is actually a reminder, a chance, as long as he is willing to speak, Public opinion will definitely be shaken, and if he is willing to show up, the public will definitely be moved by him. Although it may not be possible for him to escape from the current predicament, the company will also have endless troubles to deal with. However, Sui Qingchi did not say anything about his situation on Weibo from the beginning to the end. This last way was blocked by his self-esteem.

After Sui Qingchi was silent for more than half a year, one day he appeared in the company's rehearsal room again. He started exercising regularly and even invested in building a recording studio. She didn't think Sui Qingchi had any long-term ideas for building that recording studio. He probably just found a place for himself where he could sing, record, and learn how to compose and arrange music. There are a lot of gossip about Sui Qingchi in the company. Sui Qingchi wears red earphones in and out of the company, pretending to be other people's ghosts, and being regarded as a beautiful and delicious ghost by others.

Once Meng An and Sui Qingchi met again in the company. At that time, Meng An came out of the elevator and was talking to An Jie about something. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw Sui Qingchi standing outside the elevator door with a guitar bag on his shoulders. .

Sui Qingchi was wearing a bluish-black overalls that day, and the cuffs were rolled up to his arms. He was no longer as thin as when she saw her in Lantian County, and his forearms were tight after exercising. The muscles are more than enough to stretch the cuffs of the overalls. There was no one else on this floor, and he was the only one standing in the middle. Before the elevator door opened, he might be looking down at the phone in his hand. After the door slid open, he raised his head. After seeing Meng An, Sui Qingchi's eyes and eyebrows are still fresh in his memory.

Naturally, Meng An didn't pay much attention to the former "Little Heavenly King" who had been hidden in the snow. Even though the other party's eyes were cold and bloody, Meng An deliberately raised his voice and said to An Jie when he got out of the elevator: "Work hard, the company will take care of you." Make yours famous."

Sui Qingchi laughed when he heard it, turned around, and said towards the direction they left: "I earned you all the money you made famous for all the artists under you."

These words were like throwing a firecracker at a lion. Sui Qingchi's words were exaggerated, but not completely outrageous. As expected, Meng An's face immediately turned dark. Although he restrained himself from losing his composure, he couldn't help but turn his head back. The silhouette of Sui Qingchi just walked into the elevator.

An Jie secretly looked at her from behind, obviously frightened by the scene.

Liu Mei knew at that time that Sui Qingchi had no intention of reconciling with Meng An from the beginning to the end, and such words as "compromise", "admit defeat", and "a man who can bend and stretch" did not come into his mind at all. Whether it is the company's rehearsal room or the musical instrument, since he can still use it, he will continue to use it, because he feels that he deserves it. The team was taken away, and he played the guitar alone and the drums alone. In the rehearsal room, there were often fierce drums and electric guitars in the middle of the night.

Then there was that time. That night, Meng An asked her to go to the airport to pick up Meng Jing, and she drove Meng Jing to the company. Meng Jing heard the sound of the electric guitar coming from the rehearsal room, and asked who was still practicing so late, she had to say that it was Sui Qing. Chi.

Meng Jing's eyes lit up immediately, she was one year older than Sui Qingchi, although she was a rich lady who had seen the world, she still had a complex for celebrities, Liu Mei could tell at a glance that she liked Sui Qingchi.

They went to the rehearsal room, the door was unlocked, and the electric guitar sounded louder as soon as they were pushed open. Sui Qingchi was wearing a slim white T-shirt, white ripped jeans, covered in sweat, and he rolled up the short sleeves of the T-shirt At the shoulders, he kept his head down as he played the guitar, as if he didn't want to care about anything but the guitar, the picks quickly brought out a series of screaming distortions, and he played hard, the muscles in his arms tensed. After being hidden for so long, he is still the Sui Qingchi with his own halo, and he still has the smell of a star on his body. It reminded her of the first time she watched West Wind live, she immediately said to herself that she would sign this young man.

Meng Jing's high-heeled shoes stepped on the wooden floor, Sui Qingchi frowned and raised her head, the sound of the electric guitar disappeared, Meng Jing said "excuse me" and walked in, wearing the habit of a superior person on her body attitude. Sui Qingchi had never seen Meng Jing before, and Liu Mei felt that Sui Qingchi glanced at her, probably to blame her for bringing someone to disturb him, probably he thought Meng Jing was a new artist signed by the company or something...

Meng Jing took the initiative to strike up a conversation and asked him whether he was playing an impromptu solo or a new song just now. Sui Qingchi was obviously annoyed when he heard the word new song. He lowered his head and took off the electric guitar. Meng Jing said, can I play it

Sui Qingchi ignored her at all, and directly lifted the blue electric guitar behind her, where Meng Jing couldn't even touch it.

Meng Jing was also a little embarrassed, withdrew her outstretched hand and said, "I like you very much, I can sing every song you sing."

Sui Qingchi sat down on a speaker with his legs spread apart, watching Meng Jing look around the rehearsal room as the master, squinting his eyes, sipping water, probably thinking about who this woman is, Meng Jing turned around Seeing Sui Qingchi who was drinking water looking at him, there was a little excitement in his eyes. Almost every fan who is stared at by an idol will have this kind of reaction, but after all Meng Jing's status dictates that even the excitement is reserved and noble.

Sui Qingchi said without waiting for her to speak: "Do you want to use this rehearsal room?"

After hearing this, Liu Mei knew that he really thought Meng Jing was the company's new artist, and was speechless and funny in his heart. This was definitely the only artist in the whole company who didn't know the boss's younger sister's face. No matter how many stars he has, it can't conceal that he is a fool at heart.

Meng Jing smiled and said, "I don't need it, I just came to see it."

She took it for granted, as if she was visiting her own yard, because she knew that part of the company belonged to her, and she could go wherever she wanted. Liu Mei felt a little sad, it was really unfair to think about it, Sui Qingchi said a word correctly, every shareholder of this company sucked his blood as if nothing had happened. When he ran announcements day and night, when he was forced to appear on variety shows he hated, when he had no holidays and only slept less than six hours a day, those shareholders were enjoying their profits. But Meng An's view is different from Sui Qingchi's. He thinks that he who holds the capital is the benefactor Sui Qingchi should be grateful for. Of course, Sui Qingchi will not buy their account.

"Would you like to take a look?" Sui Qingchi asked back, because he was still panting, his voice was a bit rough, "Then you have seen enough now, can you go out?"

He still restrained himself to girls, Liu Mei knew that if it was a boy, he might just tell her to get fired.

For a high-ranking person like Meng Jing, few people would show her face, but she did not expect that she would bear it for Sui Qingchi that day, and Sui Qingchi let her go and she left, although her face was not very happy when she left.

Before leaving, Liu Mei went to the rehearsal room again. Sui Qingchi still hadn't left. She said, "Can you be more polite when you meet someone you don't know? Do you know who she is?"

Sui Qingchi stepped on the drum set, and when he played the drums, his soft black hair kept jumping in front of his eyes. He raised his head back, brushed his hair back, and said, "I don't know, I don't care."

"She is Huanyi's major shareholder." Liu Mei said.

Sui Qingchi actually heard the sound of the drum set, he stopped playing the drum, put the drum stick on his thigh with his backhand, took a breath, and suddenly put on a smile of interest: "No wonder I feel that I am seen by her." I feel uncomfortable all over, what is she trying to rule me?" Suddenly he seemed to realize something, and looked at her coldly, his eyes were already on the verge of anger, "Is this what you mean by bringing her here?"

Liu Mei rolled her eyes in her heart, and said in her heart that if I take her to the unspoken rules, no one will bring the unspoken rules to you: "What nonsense are you talking about, she is Meng An's younger sister, and I just picked her up from the airport."

After she finished speaking, Sui Qingchi froze for a moment. At that time, she didn't try to figure out Sui Qingchi's stunned look, but later she realized how many devils had sneaked into his heart at that moment, it seemed to Sui Qingchi stunned that all ghosts walked in the night.

She still regrets it to this day, if only she had left the company directly.
