When receiving a call from Liu Huishan, Zhou Yan was complaining about some things at work in a friend's office. Just when he said that the boss Wang Zhongmou refused to let him bring new people, he heard Liu Huishan calling him back to the company in a slightly hasty tone.
As early as half a month ago, Zhou Yan euphemistically mentioned to Liu Huishan that she wanted to ask her to do ideological work for Wang Zhongmou, and it was best to assign two newcomers with good qualifications to him.
At that time, after thinking for a while, Liu Huishan agreed.
However, it is not easy to convince Wang Zhongmou. After all, Tang Mo Ning lost the role of the male protagonist of "Palace Wall", and Zhou Yan, who is the agent, naturally has half of the responsibility. Rao is that Liu Huishan has the right to speak in Wang Zhongmou. What may be said is what.
The time limit given by Liu Huishan was half a month, and now it is exactly half a month.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan's face almost burst into a smile, he said goodbye to his friends immediately, then picked up the coat thrown on his outer hair, put it on, and left in a hurry.
Returning to the company as quickly as possible, and outside the lounge, Zhou Yan saw Liu Huishan sitting inside through the glass at first glance, and was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stepped in.
Of course, there were other people sitting in the lounge, including Zu Qi, but it was no longer in Zhou Yan's eyes at this time.
"Sister Hui." Zhou Yan shouted happily, and sat down on the empty seat next to Liu Huishan.
Liu Huishan has been sitting here for half an hour, and has been impatiently waiting. If there were not so many people watching, she would not be in a hurry to deal with this matter.
"You're here." Liu Huishan glanced at her watch, then cut to the subject and said, "I just want to ask, when you asked Xiao Dengzi to follow me, did you mention the salary increase to him?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yan was slightly taken aback.
He didn't seem to expect that Liu Huishan would suddenly ask these questions, but soon he replied without thinking: "Xiao Dengzi's salary has been maintained at the original level, if you think he is good, I can consider more time at the end of the year. Give him a bonus."
Anyway, Zu Qi is paying, so let Xiao Deng Zi find time to go to Zu Qi and cry miserably.
Liu Huishan fiddled with her mobile phone and asked casually, "So, you are paying for Xiao Dengzi's salary and year-end bonus, right?"
"Of course it's me, otherwise who else would be willing to pay this money?" Zhou Yan said amusingly, but at the same time he felt something was wrong, as if Liu Huishan was deliberately trying to induce him to say this.
Before Zhou Yan could think about it, Liu Huishan sneered at the corner of her mouth and said in a cool tone, "Really? But today Zu Qi is here to ask for someone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yan saw a tall figure sitting in the corner standing up and slowly walking towards them in the corner of the light. He turned his head and took a closer look—
Is it Zu Qi? !
Zhou Yan realized something in an instant, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly. He stood up from the chair as if his butt was on fire, and glared at Zu Qi with gnashing teeth.
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Yan squeezed out a sentence between his teeth. He reached out to grab Zu Qi's arm, but Zu Qi turned his body and flexibly avoided it.
"Didn't you ask me to come to see Sister Hui?" Zu Qi put his arms around his chest, stood beside Liu Huishan, raised his brows and looked at Zhou Yan with a smile that was not a smile.
"I asked you to come to discuss with her, not to talk nonsense!" Zhou Yan was so angry that he was about to explode, wishing that Zu Qi immediately disappeared from his and Liu Huishan's eyes.
And now he finally understood that it was not because of Wang Zhongmou that Liu Huishan came back to him, but to confront him with Zu Qi.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan suddenly sweated like rain.
Although he has always claimed that he paid for Xiao Deng Zi, the fact is that Xiao Deng Zi's salary will be deducted from Zu Qi's bank card regularly. It has been almost a year. Zu Qi never mentioned this matter, why is it today? Suddenly thought
Zu Qi seemed to see Zhou Yan's doubts, and said with a calm smile: "Xiao Deng Zi is my only assistant, responsible for the trivial matters in my work and life, so I have been paying his salary and bonuses for the past year, now I'm about to join the crew to film, and there's no one around, so I called you, but you asked me to ask Sister Hui for someone, so I'm here, what's wrong?"
Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, and he sensitively extracted a key point from Zu Qi's words.
"You want to join the crew to film? What are you filming?"
"Palace Wall." Zu Qi replied, looking at Zhou Yan's face turning blue and then white, colorful and beautiful, and feeling very happy, "As if you don't know yet? I'm sure to play the role of the second male."
"..." Zhou Yan froze.
During this time, he was always immersed in the damage that Tang Mo Ning caused him after losing the role, and he didn't pay attention to the results of Zu Qi's audition at all.
In Zhou Yan's cognition, Zu Qi is a complete vase. Maybe Zu Qi's outbreak that day was just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse, and it will be revealed in the retest.
how do you know...
Zu Qi actually got that role? !
At this moment, Zhou Yan's inner emotions can be described as shock. He looked at Zu Qi in disbelief, as if he had never really known Zu Qi.
What followed was a flood of remorse that drowned him overwhelmingly.
Knowing that Chen Meixin and Shi Hao would fall from power so soon, he would never give up Zu Qi in favor of Tang Mo Ning, who had no brains and no acting skills, and was acting like an emperor.
But he never dreamed that Zu Qi, who was almost hacked into the mud at that time, would have a day when the Jedi fought back...
Liu Huishan observed the change in Zhou Yan's expression, and also knew the fact that Zhou Yan had been deceiving her for more than half a year, she laughed angrily, and said sarcastically, "I, Liu Huishan, are not short of that money, if I had known that Xiao Dengzi was still Zu Qi's. Assistant, I would rather wait a while longer than rob him, you are doing this purely to provoke me and Zu Qi, right?"
Zhou Yan hurriedly shook his head: "No, Sister Hui, listen to my explanation..."
"This is the end of the matter, there is nothing to explain." Liu Huishan interrupted Zhou Yan's words coldly, "I really believed in your evil, I thought Xiao Dengzi was really your person, now everyone knows that I Liu Huishan occupied Zu Qi's place. The assistant has more than half a year, do you just want everyone to see my jokes?"
Zhou Yan didn't expect Liu Huishan to have such a big temper. He was seen by the other party's cold eyes, and all the mixed emotions just now turned into fear and timidity in an instant.
"Sister Hui, you have to believe me, I really don't remember whether Xiao Deng Zi's salary or Zu Qi is paying..."
"Come on, Brother Zhou, don't say a few words." A male staff member couldn't see it, got up and said, "Last month I saw you go to the finance department to ask Manager Xu to inquire about Xiao Dengzi's year-end bonus, then Manager Shi said that Xiao Dengzi's year-end bonus is also directly deducted from Zuqi's bank card, right?"
Hearing these words, Zhou Yan's face turned ashen, and all his sophistry was stuck in his throat.
He knew that no matter what he said, no one would believe him.
Seeing this, the other people in the lounge began to talk in a low voice. They didn't expect that they could eat a fresh melon on the spot today, and they didn't expect that Zhou Yan usually seemed serious and upright, but he actually did such a rude thing in private.
Liu Huishan looked at Zhou Yan with contempt and disgust in her eyes. She picked up her mobile phone and inquired about Xiao Dengzi's salary. In front of everyone, she transferred the salary for the past six months to Xiao Dengzi through WeChat, and asked him to Return the money received before to Zu Qi, and the rest is his bonus.
"From now on, you can just follow Zu Qi. His agent is just like a decoration, and he can't even play your role as an assistant." Liu Huishan patted Xiao Deng Zi on the shoulder comfortingly.
Xiao Dengzi held the phone, and his eyes were red with gratitude: "Thank you, Sister Hui."
Liu Huishan nodded with a smile, looked at Zu Qi next to her, sighed with a complicated expression, and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I should investigate before I hire someone."
"It's not your fault, it's my incompetence," Zu Qi said.
Liu Huishan pursed her lips and didn't refute Zu Qi's words. She remembered that Zu Qi really didn't have any acting skills, but there were a lot of flowers and materials, which appeared on Weibo hot search from time to time, turning black and purple.
To be honest, no matter it was in the past or now, Liu Huishan didn't like Zu Qi, a star who did not develop her job well but racked her brains for hype, but today Zu Qi behaved modestly and politely, which made her a little bit better.
"Come on, work hard, and I will tell President Wang about the rest." Liu Huishan encouraged.
Zu Qi didn't know what Liu Huishan was going to say to Wang Zhongmou, but he didn't ask. Anyway, guessing with his toes, he knew that it must be unfavorable to Zhou Yan.
After Liu Huishan left, more than a dozen staff members who were watching the farce in the lounge also left. Suddenly, only Zu Qi and Xiao Deng Zi and Zhou Yan, who looked increasingly grim, were left in the huge room.
"Zu, Qi." Without outsiders, Zhou Yan made no secret of his ferocity and anger. He chewed Zu Qi's name hard, as if he was chewing Zu Qi's flesh and blood.
Zu Qiyun smiled lightly: "Brother Zhou, there is an old saying that eggs should not be put in one basket, if you didn't put all your hopes on Tang Mo Ning last year, you wouldn't be where you are today, right? ?"
"You're so embarrassed to say, are you deliberately here to hurt me?" Zhou Yan was swept away by anger, and Zu Qi's calm smile made his eyes hurt, and when he was excited, he rolled up his sleeves Get started.
Little Deng Zi, who suddenly blocked his fist in the middle, reached out and held it.
Although Xiao Dengzi was only 1.7 meters tall, he was very strong and surprisingly strong. He stood in front of Zhou Yan like a solid mountain, and Zhou Yan's fist seemed to be shattered, but he couldn't break free.
Zhou Yan's whole face turned blue in pain, but the little Deng Zi in front of him still had a simple and honest smile on his face, and suggested solemnly: "Brother Zhou, we are in the company.
"You're doing it, okay? You fucking let me go!" Zhou Yan was so angry that he almost fainted, and couldn't help roaring in a low voice.
Only then did Xiao Dengzi realize what he was doing, and he quickly let go of his hand, seeing Zhou Yan suddenly retracting his hand, tears came out from the pain, he couldn't help scratching his head, and said innocently and apologetically, "I'm sorry Brother Zhou, did I get it wrong? Does it hurt you?"
"… "
Zhou Yan found that he couldn't communicate with Xiao Dengzi, and he would really be pissed off if he continued, so he closed his mouth full of anger, and stared straight at Zu Qi who was watching the fun.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Zu Qi called Xiao Deng Zi to leave together, and didn't look at Zhou Yan again from the beginning to the end.
Xiao Deng Zi responded in a low voice, then silently followed behind Zu Qi, burying his head in dejection, looking uninterested.
After walking out of the company's door, Zu Qi found out about Xiao Dengzi's situation and couldn't help laughing. He patted Xiao Dengzi on the shoulder and said, "If you want to go to Sister Hui's place, I'll go and tell Sister Hui. ."
Xiao Deng Zi was shocked when he heard the words, and immediately shook his chubby head like a rattle. He waved his hands hastily and said, "No no no, I don't want to go... It's not that Sister Hui is bad, but I still want to come back to you."
Zu Qi said, "Now that you are back, why are you still wrinkling a bitter face?"
Xiao Dengzi was silent for a long time, just when Zu Qi was thinking about changing the subject, he saw Xiao Dengzi suddenly choked twice, his eyes and nose turned red at the same time, and tears rolled out of his eyes uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry Brother Qi, I'm really sorry, I betrayed you." Xiao Dengzi snorted and cried like a child who weighed more than two hundred pounds.
Zu Qi was angry and funny, he stepped forward and hugged Xiao Dengzi, slapped him twice on his back, and comforted him in the usual tone of coaxing Xue Wan: "Okay, okay, I didn't say anything. Why are you still crying? It seems that I'm sorry for your tears if I don't scold you a few words."
Little Dengzi struggled out of Zu Qi's arms, his head almost buried in his collar, he said pitifully in a crying voice: "Brother Qi, scold me, I'm sorry for you."
Zu Qi sighed, put his hands on Xiao Deng Zi's shoulders, and said seriously: "Xiao Deng Zi, you have done nothing wrong, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow these days, and it is impossible for you to stand on my side without a job, that way. It doesn't do me any good, as long as you don't get in trouble, it's the greatest help to me."
Little Dengzi looked up at Zu Qi and cried out, "Brother Qi, you are such a good person."
Zu Qi: "…Can I refuse this good person card?"
Xiao Dengzi couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
After finally comforting Deng Zi, who was still a big child, Zu Qi gave him the contact numbers and WeChat of the assistant and the field service.
The crew will start the day after tomorrow. In the past two days, everyone is rushing to the film and television city one after another. Zu Qi can't handle everything alone, so Xiao Deng Zi still has a lot of work that needs to be worked overtime to understand.
After the communication, Zu Qi took a taxi back to Xue's house. On the way, he accidentally received a call from assistant Wang Zhongmou, saying that Zhou Yan's business ability was not good, and now Zu Qi has been assigned to another agent.
Zu Qi was not surprised, he let out a faint sigh.
The assistant said: "Mr. Duan Kai will contact you today, and your future work and schedule will be re-arranged by Mr. Duan Kai. If you have any problems during the run-in period, you can call me and I will report to President Wang."
"Okay..." Before Zu Qi could finish his words, he suddenly reacted. He hurriedly sat up straight and asked nervously, "You mean Duan Kai? Isn't he from Yuda?"
The assistant said: "Mr. Duan Kai's contract with Yuda Group ended two months ago. Now we have signed a new contract with our company, so you can rest assured to follow him."
How could Zu Qi be at ease
Because this Duan Kai is the manager of the heroine Yu Meitong, and he has also played a great role in Yu Meitong's subsequent acting career. It can be said that he is one of the many god assists of the hero and heroine.
Hearing these words, Zu Qi could no longer calm down.
"What about Yu Meitong?" Zu Qi asked, "Duan Kai just left Yu Meitong like this?"
Originally, the assistant didn't want to answer too much, but then she thought that Zu Qi and Yu Meitong had a good relationship on Weibo, and by tomorrow, these things she was hiding would no longer be a secret, so she replied, "Yu Meitong also followed."
Zu Qi: "..."
In other words, he and Yu Meitong will be colleagues in the future.
The odds of them meeting will skyrocket like a rocket.
The change of this story was too fast, Zu Qi felt that his heart could not stand it, he covered his chest with a pale face, and it took a while to recover from the shock.
Maybe this is life...
Zu Qi felt the deep malice of the author and the original plot.
the other side.
Liu Huishan finished her day's work, and it was ten o'clock at night when she returned home.
She lay down on the soft sofa, rubbed her brows and recalled the bad thing that happened during the day, but she still felt annoyed. After thinking about it, she picked up her mobile phone and called Liu Jing.
After a while, Liu Jing answered the phone.
Liu Huishan complained to Liu Jing and told Zhou Yan from head to toe.
Liu Jing smiled and let Liu Huishan calm down. Don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes. If you are angry, you will grow wrinkles. Then she asked, "Who is that junior you are talking about? You are really brave. If I were him, maybe I don't have the guts to run alone and ask you for someone."
"Do you know Zu Qi?" Liu Huishan said while holding up a cup of lemonade on the coffee table, "It's the Zu Qi who married Xue's eldest son Xue Jue a while ago, and it's a hot search every now and then, and everyone knows it. "
Liu Huishan thought that Liu Jing, a fashion magazine editor, must know the dynamics of the entertainment industry well, but the other party suddenly lost her voice after listening to her words.
"Liu Jing?" Liu Huishan smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't know him. He doesn't have many masterpieces, so it may not be in your attention."
"Hui Shan..." Liu Jing took a deep breath and spoke slowly after she calmed down, "Remember the apples I told you about? Those apples were given to me by Zu Qi."
Liu Huishan, who was drinking water, stopped abruptly, then put down the cup and coughed violently.
"Fuck?" Liu Huishan exclaimed in shock, "The person you're talking about is Zu Qi?! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Thinking that she missed a good opportunity to chat with Zu Qi today, Liu Huishan regretted that her bowels were blue, and wished to immediately travel back to the daytime to get Zu Qi's mobile phone number and WeChat. It is best to have dinner together to exchange feelings.
But it's too late...
Liu Huishan showed sadness, raised her hand to touch the fine lines at the corner of her eyes, and suddenly felt a sense of despair that the sky was falling.
Liu Jing on the phone also hated that iron would not become steel: "If I had known that you and Zu Qi would meet today, then I would have to give up all the work and follow you to your company."
After speaking, the two sad women sighed at the same time.
